Automator wants me to save the workflow every time I run it.

I have a simple workflow in automator. It finds all files on the desktop with an extension of .jpg and saves them to a folder. Two steps: "Find Finder Items" and "Move finder items". It works just right, but when I quit Automator after running it, it ALWAYS puts up a dialog box saying "Do you want to save the changes you made in the document “Movefile.workflow”? " I have to click on a box every time. What gives? I'm not changing the workflow at all! How do I get rid of this? it's annoying!

If it wants you to save the workflow as an app, try that and see if it works.
Please post back.

Can I choose where to save the files every time?

When I get files by email, it's very annoying they all get saved in the same place. I'd like the chance to decide, every time, where I want them to be downloaded to, so that I don't have to be moving them around or reorganizing them later.
Also, is there an option to just open the file instead of downloading it? Some times I just want to see the content of the file, not necessarily save it in my computer.
Thanks!

In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
*do not clear the Site Preferences
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/remove-browsing-search-and-download-history
Note that clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, passwords, and other website specific data.
Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies with an allow exception that you would like to keep.
You can inspect and manage the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:
*Click the "[[Site Identity Button|Site Identity Button]]" (globe/padlock) on the location bar
*Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
*Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab
It is also possible that the server uses multiple servers and that Firefox sees this as a new website.

Why does my custom artwork for songs default to the original every time I run match?

any help would be appreciated. getting tired of constantly redoing my custom artwork selections

I have the same problem, although it doesn't happen with all the songs, but randomly. It's maddening to have to re-edit the same songs again and again.
The same thing happens with the metadata of the songs, if I change it.

Help! Dreamweaver keeps automatically 'putting' my template onto the server every time I save it.

For some reason Dreamweaver keeps automatically 'putting' my template onto the server every time I save it, overwriting the template that was originally on there and I don't know why. It never used to do this and all my other sites work fine and don't have this problem... I don't want it to keep overwriting the files I have on the server... does anyone know how to stop it from doing this please? I would greatly appreciate any help anyone can give.
If it helps, I'm using CS4.
Thanks,
Catherine.

Thank you!
For this particular website I only have one template. The website is up and running online, but I'm still working on it, trying to improve it and I'd like to preview before I upload it to the server and alter the other pages. I did have a backup of the template on the server as you said, but because I was experimenting with something in the local copy, the design changed quite a lot, and suddenly it was 'put' automatically (which was something it had never done before) resulting in a loss of the original template. Fortunately I ignored the prompt asking me to update the pages from this template, so the overall design of my live website has remained in tact. I pressed F12 as I always do and instead of taking me to my default browser for live preview, it 'put' the template onto the server. This is what I'd like to avoid doing again.
Thank you for your response! I really appreciate your help.
Catherine.

I installed 4.0 and cannot print anything. I uninstalled and installed 3.6 and cannot print anything. Everything has a .tif extension and wants me to save the file and I just want to print a selection from my email!

I have had nothing but grief since I upgraded to 4. It is hateful. I can't print anything. If I highlight something from a website or my email and tell the printer to just print the selection, it doesn't print. It wants me to save the the file and they all have a .tif extension and nothing will print. I have uninstalled 4 and gone back to 3.6 and the problem is still there. If I highlight the desired selection and copy it to Word 2003, it will print what I want, but I can't print anything from the browser itself. That is the only problem I'm aware of so far. I upgraded about a week ago at most, maybe less than that. I'm so sorry I did. Why can't I print anything? I don't want my selection to be a file, I just want it to print!

Thank you, but it didn't work. My printer stays on away, independently of the PC. I can print from Chrome and IE7 with no problem but not Firefox. The .tif extension refers to a tagged image something. I went looking around in the control panel and I found that Microsoft Office has it's own Access Snapshot Viewer. My company installed Office 2003 on my PC but I only use Word in my work. This snapshot viewer was listed in the control panel under Printers and Faxes. It was not the default anything but for some reason, Firefox 4 installation must have kicked it into gear. I've had the Office software for several months with not one problem. I have Firefox4 for less than a week and everything becomes difficult. I deleted the Office snapshot viewer (hope I don't get fired for it) so my little HP printer is the only one listed and now things seem to be working okay. I have FF 3.6 back up and running. I didn't lose any data and I hope the support and security updates stay available for a long time because it seems like there are plenty of people who aren't in love with FF4. Thank you so much anyway for your help.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Staying signed in at iCloud.com is not a problem for me. Try resetting your browser or emptying its cache.

How do i disable the open/save image dialog box in firefox? I want to directly save the image file to the drive.

How do i disable the open/save image dialog box in firefox? I want to directly save the image file to the drive without clicking on save option everytime when saving an image. I'm using firefox ver 35.0.1 for windows 7.

Click on the Firefox menu. Then click "Options". Go to "Applications" tab. Search for jpg and png file type. You will find they have "Always ask" action attribute. Change it to "Save file".
Hope it will work fine for you.

I contracted Security Tool the same way about ten minutes ago on my Win7 Home Premium laptop. Firefox prompted me to do an immediate update the way it normally does, with a convincing update screen that looks like the typical Mozilla update prompt. However, the installer I downloaded was in fact "Security Tool." The program firewalls Firefox to prevent searches and also prevents access to Task Manager via Ctrl-Alt-Del. On the surface this appears to be a particularly nasty strain of malware / scamware, and FF users need to be warned and/or innoculated immediately.

Why do my bookmarks keep changing to the default every time I close Safari?

Why do my bookmarks keep changing to the default every time I close Safari and why does my history keep clearing?
I want to save my bookmarks for my favorite pages but every time I close Safari the default ones (Apple, iCloud, Facebook, Twitter, Wikipedia, Yahoo, News and Popular) re appear.
Basicaly I want Google instead of Twitter and Yahoo and I also don't want it to keep clearing my history.

Step one is to log into a newly created admin user account and see if the problem persists.

Photoshop Elements 12 crashes every time I run the editor

Every time I run the editor, the program crashes. The organizer works fine. I have a i7, Win 8.1 16GB RAM and 2GB video memory. Lightroom 5.3 works fine. I have the same problem with the editor of Premiere Elements 12.
Any suggestions?

Has it ever worked right? If so, I would start the editor while holding down ctrl+alt+shift. Keep the keys down till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.
If it has never worked, I would uninstall and reinstall, but be sure to disable your antivirus and anything from symantec/norton during the installation.

In Firefox all browser windows and tabs use the same cookies that will identify you to the server.
If you open a different account then existing cookies are send to the server and the server sees that you already signed on (authenticated).
You can look at one of these if you want to sign on with different identities at the same time:
CookiePie: http://www.nektra.com/oss/firefox/extensions/cookiepie/
CookieSwap: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/3255

I am trying to install a program on my Mac Book Pro Retina from a Apple SuperDrive. Every time I run the installer, it says I do not have enough memory to install. However, I definitely have enough memory (186.74 GB). Any ideas why?

I am trying to install a program on my Mac Book Pro Retina from a Apple SuperDrive. Every time I run the installer, it says I do not have enough memory to install. However, I definitely have enough memory (186.74 GB). The program takes only 550 MB. Any ideas why?

Thanks for the clarification on the terms. I consider myself proficent at my computer, but not exactly in its inner-workings! I have 8 GB of memory installed.
I am still confused as to why I do not have any space for the program. This is the exact error message I get: "There is not enough free space on Macintosh HD disk. The Print Shop 2 application requires about 550 MB to be installed. Free some disk space and try again."
Thank you again for your help.

Is there a way to have a book open at the start every time?

I'd like my eBook to open at the beginning every time it's launched fresh—is that possible or is it always going to open up at the last visited location? Is there a preference in iBooks author or something? Or in iBooks itself on the iPad? I don't see it. The "Videos" on iPads have a preference to start at the beginning or start where you left off. Just wondering if the books have something similar.

What you're talking about is the default navigation that is part of iBooks, so no, it doesn't appear you can force a restart from open, sorry.
Your reader would need to navigate there each time they leave the book.
As always, feel free to use the 'Provide iBooks Author Feedback' menu item for features you'd like added in the future, etc.
