Can I save a complete copy of my mbp to My Passport, so that if it goes on fire, I have a full copy?
I imagine I can, but I don't know how. I have set-up Time Machine to do automatic back-ups, but I can't see a copy of my mbp in Time Machine (I don't know what it should look like anyway - but I'm sure it's not there). Also, in relation to Time Machine, does it only back up the files I have created, eg, word docs, photos etc, to My Passport, and not the whole computer?
giveup wrote: Is there a difference between 'bootable' and 'reinstall'? Yes. Boot is when you start up a comp from "off." Bootable is starting up a Mac from a disc by holding down the "c" key. Reinstall is installing software that was previously installed. You are returning the software to your comp. Regarding your other questions-concerns, I would suggest that you read the following Knowledge Base Article & website links:https://support.apple.com/kb/PH18837How to back up and restore your Mac with Time MachineTime Machine Tips Hopefully one if not all of the articles will answer your questions & concerns.

Error message: You cannot save a completed copy of this form to your computer.
Hello,
I created a PDF form in Acrobat Pro X and i am trying to distribute it by placing it on our shared drive so employees can take it from there and save it to their own computer.
I tested the form with some employees that have Reader. Some can open it, save it, fill it in and submit it and others get this message when opening it:
You cannot save a completed copy of this form to your computer. If you would like a copy for your records please fill it in and print it.
I read some discussions that said to convert it to a binder, that didnt work either. i tried going to the advanced tab and extending the features to reader...nothing works.
Please help.
Thank you!Thank you for your help George. I placed a ticket with our IT department to have them check the system time on her machine. I'll let you know if it worked.

Cannot save a completed copy of adobe forms
Hi experts,
i was developing a simple Adobe form with a drop down list. When saving that form on local system ad then opening it , I tried changing the valve in drop down list it gives me a pop-up as
"You cannot save the completed copy of this form on your computer."
is there any setting to be donw to the form.
thanks in advance,
Govind.I guess you have already found the problem: you cannot save the file if your reader rights are down == your form has not been generated as interactive and no licence has been attached. Otto

Can you save your itunes and songs onto an external hard drive so that incase your computer crashes you will still have all your music?
The procedures below are for "moving" your library but as long as you don't delete it from your internal drive you are basically backing up.
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Simple answer: Copy your whole iTunes folder to the external drive. For subsequent backups you might want to learn about cloning and using a tool that only does incremental backups of recently changed items rather than copying all your files each time. -
How can I save the modulation I apply to an instrument during recording such that it remains during playback? For example, I apply modulation #8 during recording, but when I play the track back the modulation is not incorporated.
Hi Vlad,
Unfortunately, I don't think there is a way to programmatically read the voltage output to the drive, as the voltage is all determined internally by the controller circuitry on the board. Depending on the controller though, you may be able to physically route the output terminal to a spare analog input channel and read in the voltage that way. This example Analog Input with 73xx Motion Card shows you how to program LabVIEW to do this. -
How can I save the .mp4 files downloaded from internet to ipad memory so that I don't have to download everytime to view them again. Also they might remove them from internet so I can't rely on the bookmark to them.
I'm trying to send home movies to my 10 year old nephew who lives across the country. He doesn't have a computer. He has an iPod touch. His parents have computers. But I don't want everything I ever try to have him do result in "you need your parent's computer for this." It's getting really embarrassing. I have converted my family over to Apple computers but now they want to buy iPhones, iPads, and iPods even though I tell them to go Android. It took a decade to convert them away from windows now I'm trying to keep them away from these freedom limited iOS devices and they won't listen. Then it becomes my responsibility to make their iPads print to their fancy pre-airprint color laser jet printers, get home movies onto them, and countless other things. It's driving me nuts.
I have converted these files to a format that the iOS devices will play directly off of dropbox. Now, how do I get the infernal devices to save it instead of play it? -
Can not save dashboard after copying to another location
Hi All,
I am moving a dashboard to another location and trying to make some changes but when I click on save button nothing happens, "Saving" text appears, page busy gif appears, thats all. I've waited long enough but no change. This occurs only on one page of the dashboard. The original dashboard page works fine but the copied one is not saving.
Sometimes I get the error;
There was a problem retrieving the response data:Unknown (12030)
Ay idea would help. Thanks.
Ganimhi,
Use catalog manager to copy from one location to other location
and check in preserve the old item name while copying from one location to other.
Regards,
VG

CS5 Unknown Error, Can't Save After Drawing/Copying Vector Linework
I've found some other versions of this problem on the forum that seemed more straightforward, but this ones a bit stranger.
I have a fairly large file with 8 artboards (no memory problem), and a variety of images and vectors. It was saving fine as an .AI file until I started getting the "Unknown Error" message. Tested it out and it appears that I can save if I introduce any amount of more images/text, but the moment I try to save after drawing another line/copy-pasting an existing line/shape, the unknown error occurs.
Tested the file on another computer and it had the exact same issue so it's definitely a file-specific issue and not a problem with my Illustrator. Also copied parts of the content to new files and the exact same error occurs. It does not occur in other files. Also, I'll need to keep PDF Compatibility checked when saving.
I'd appreciate any help on the subject.constanzaman,
You may try pasting parts of the artwork cautiously, to see which part(s) may be causing the issue.
Here is a general set of instructions, going all the way:
One thing often tried first is to create a new document and File>Place the corrupted one to see how much may be rescued that way (remember to tick Paste remembers Layers in the Layer palette flyout/dropdown first, and to untick it afterwards).
Here are some websites where you can see whether it can rescue the file, and if it can, you may pay for a subscription to have it done,

As far as I remember, the first one is for Win and the one is for Mac, while the third one should be for both.
Here are a few pages about struggling with it yourself:

How can I save a complete set of bookmarks at once?
Having searched for ERP/CRM info, I have found several interesting sited offering valuable information. Each of these sites has been opened in a separate screen. By doing so, I collected a series of tabs, each of them connected to a specific website.
How can I bookmark the whole set of links to my collection of favourites at once, avoiding to save them one by one?You're welcome
If you have a Dutch Firefox version then you need to use the correct shortcut key (Alt+A) to open the Bladwijzers menu.

This message is new. I have never had this issue before on my system. 3 days ago I created a PDF using LiveCycle Designer ES2 at my office - exactly like I have done for the past 2 years - and now I get this message when I try to open the PDF on my home system. I have always been able to work with these files until today. Yesterday I installed Office 365 and now I apparently have Reader XI on my system. Now every form I was able to open in the past will not allow data to save. What's the deal?

This is all odd as this form is designed explicity with digital signatures, and has always worked; hundreds of people have used this form extensively since late 2012, and I have tested it hundreds of times - it has always worked, never had this issue. Unfortunately every PC in my home has Reader XI installed as of today (no Standard or Pro versions) and I will have to hunt for PCs that have only Reader (no Pro or Standard) at work. -
I am using a later model XP Windows computer. The memory is only 512MB.
Sometimes it freezes up and I need someone to help me get it running again.
It has completely crashed at least 3 times in the past 4 years, and when it does I lose all of my bookmarks that I've saved.
So does Firefox allow the user to transfer all saved bookmarks to an email address or do I need to email each one to my mailbox separately myself?See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
