Can I save a TDM file without its TDX data?

I have hundreds of data files that have been sorted (by date). In certain cases, I want to analyze subsets of this data in particular groupings. I would like to save these groupings in a TDM file but I don't want to another copy of the bulk data. However, I notice that if I save a TDM, it automatically saves the TDX, and I'm not sure it's possible to save/open a TDM without its same-name TDX file. Does anyone else have a similar need and/or know of a data management method that can suit my need?
Thanks.

Hmm... But it seems that the TDMS file simply puts all the information in a single file and, in the end, is almost as big as the TDX file. What I'm trying to do is only save the meta data but not the bulk data, since I already have a copy of the bulk data in another set of TDM/TDX files.
Maybe I'm asking the wrong question. Here is a simplified example of what I'm trying to do:
I have several (let's say, 6) original TDM files. Each of these original TDM files have 20 or more channels. I've created a new TDM file, pulling out only 5 of the channels from each of the original TDM files but organizing them into 6 groups corresponding to the original 6 TDM files. From this new TDM file, I've created a TDR file where the plots are based on the 6 channel groupings. Due to this TDR to new TDM association, I think I need to save the new TDM. However, that means I now have a new giant file that contains duplicate data from the original TDM files. I don't want this duplicate data. Being very new to DIAdem, maybe I'm just going about this the wrong way because I haven't figured out the "right way" to accomplish my needs. Can anyone advise?

Save a pdf file without Adobe automatically adding "-Copy" to the end

How can I save a pdf file without Adobe automatically adding "-Copy" to the end of file name?

If you have actually made any changes (e.g. adding a Sticky Note or filling out forms), the Save button will appear in the bottom toolbar. It will save it as the same name.
"- Copy" is added only when you tap/click the Save As button. You can change it to something else, if you'd like.

How can I save a page and all its component parts in a single file, like IE does as an MHT - it's much easier for mailing to people where page address not available?? (as in output from an airline booking site, for example)

how can I save a page and all its component parts in a single file, like IE does as an MHT?
It's much easier for mailing to people where page address not available?? (as in output from an airline booking site, for example)
It is simply too painful to have to zip everything up into a single file to send. MHT format has been available for years now from IE, and with every new FF release it's the first thing I look for. I have been using FF for years, and hate having to come out of it, over into IE |(which I even took out of startup) and key everything in again, in order to send somebody something in a convenient format that they can open with a single click.
I can't believe this hasn't been asked before, so have you looked at it and rejected it? Have MS kept the file format secret?
Thanks

This is not really an answer just my comments on your question.
I am sure I recollect efforts being made to get mhtml to work with FF.
Probably the important thing to remember about .mhtml is that if other browsers do support it they may need addons, and may not necessarily render the content correctly/consistently.
There are FF addons designed for archiving webpages, you could try them, but that then assumes the recipient has the same software.
You could simply save the page from FF to your XP pc; then offline open it with and save it using IE, before then emailing using FF, and attaching the .mht or mhtml file that you have now created on your PC.
As an alternative method, in some cases it could be worth considering taking a screen grab of the required page, then sending that to the recipient as a single email attatchment using either a bitmap or jpeg file format for instance.
Something such as an airline booking may be designed with a print option, possibly it could be worthwile looking at sending the print file itself as an email attachment.

How to disable "Are you sure you want to copy this file without its properties?"

copying from NFTS to Fat32 I get a prompt
"Are you sure you want to copy this file without its properties?"
the answer (for me) is always yes
is there a way to disable the prompt ?

This may be caused by the presence of NTFS Alternate Data Stream which cannot be copied to FAT32.
Either format destination as NTFS or use utility like
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/alternate_data_streams.html
to scan/delete the ADS before copy. From the link above, below are some examples of when an ADS might be created
1. Favorites of Internet Explorer: When You add a Web site link into your 'Favorites', a .url file containing the url and description is created. However, if the Web site also have an icon (favicon), the icon is saved as alternate stream for the same url file.
The stream name of the icon is :favicon:$DATA
2. Downloaded files of Internet Explorer: When you download and save a file with Internet Explorer, it automatically add a zone information for the saved file. This zone information is used for identifying the file as downloaded file from the Internet. The
stream name in this case is :Zone.Identifier:$DATA
3. Summary information of files: When you right-click on a file in Explorer and go to the 'Summary' tab, you can add summary information for the file, like title, subject, author, and so on. This summary information is also saved into alternate stream. The
stream name in this case is SummaryInformation:$DATA.
In addition to the legitimate usage of alternate streams, this technique may also be used by Viruses/Trojans/Spywares for saving data and hiding it from the user.
In the case of files downloaded from the internet you could also try the methods in the link below to remove the zone identifier

How can I save a PDF file sent to me in an attachment to my iPhone 5s

How can I save a PDF file or word file sent to me as an attachment directly to my iPhone 5s so if I want to read it I don't have to dig into my ail every time?

You will need to select the attachment and open in another app. If you do not have any apps that support PDF, Adobe reader for iOS is free.
For MS word files, you will need an app that supports those, like Documents to Go.
There is not generic file storage area in iOS, so you need to "open in" an app that supports that file type so that app can then add the file to its sandboxed local storage area.
If you need to markup the PDF, some good apps are GoodReader, iAnnotate, PDF Expert, GoodNotes - there are numerous others as well in the App Store.

Can't save/write Framemaker files

Hi,
I've suddenly got a major problem - I can't Save or Save As any Framemaker files.
Specifically, I am using Framemaker 9 (latest patches) under Win XP/SP3, using parallels Desktop for Mac on my MacBook Pro 17" (8GB, 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Mac OS 10.6.2).
I can save to my Windows virtual drive, but if I try to save to my Mac world, I get an error that says "The \\.psf\Home\<path>\<filename>.fm.DE1 that FrameMaker wrote may be damaged". There is a .lck file, but can't save the .fm file, even with another name.
I have tried saving in different formats (to check it's not a network/permissions issue). I can save in .html, .txt, .xml, .pdf, .rtf. I cannot save in any of the Frame-related formats (MIF, .fm, previous versions).
I suspect the problem arose after updating Parallels Desktop to the latest version. Dumb move. It barfed at the end of the upgrade, but I thought things were OK after restarting.
I also had a disk problem on my Mac (various catalog file errors) after ejecting a recaltitrant USB pen drive. Major headache. Again, thought it was all fixed after fsck and Disk Utility checks. maybe not. Still a weird issue though. I do seem to remember having something like this before. Anyone got any ideas?

Hi, Martin:
I'm using InDesign on my MacBookPro pre-unibody under Leopard, and also under Windows 7 Vista running on VMware Fusion2.
I never save my files on the Windows virtual drive for a couple of reasons:
* too likely to crash unexpectedly - hey, it's Windows.
* because the virtual drive file is always marked changed no matter how little activity you do on it, even just opening it, Time Machine backs up the entire humongous drive file and fills up my Time Capsule needlessly.
EDIT:
* I exclude the virtual drive file from the Time Machine backup, but I do save a copy of it in case I need to replace one that goes bad. Doesn't always work, though. I also save a bunch of automatic snapshots of the virtual drive, and manual ones when I change something. I haven't got the habit yet of also making Windows Restore Points. I figure if a Fusion2 snapshot can't get me back working, it's time to start over, or copy my safety copy.
/EDIT
I always save files made on the Mac or Windows sides on my Mac file system.
One likely source of being unable to save is unwanted and unexpected permission changes. Have you tried fixing permissions with Disk Utility, or the free utility OnyX, or the free utility applejack? You run OnyX from within OS X. You run applejack from the command line that appears when you restart the Mac and hold CMD-s to go into single user mode. The command: applejack auto restart performs a bunch of cleanup operations automatically, and displays its actions as it does them. When it's done, it restarts your Mac.
Applejack is more limited in what it does, so it easier to avoid doing anything you didn't intend. OnyX offers options that can clean out stuff you might not want to, so read carefully what options you select.

Can I save a dng file from Photoshop6 to import back into Lightroom 4

Can I save a dng file from Photoshop6 to import back into Lightroom 4. I don't understand why this is not straight forward.

Hello!
The DNG format's goal is to be an universal file formats for camera raw files: http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/extend.displayTab2.html?promoid=DTEHA
You can save a DNG from camera raw without a problem.
Just go the the bottom left hand corner of the interface, and select "save image".
(as explained here in the help files: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/creativesuite/cs/using/WS91C1E0BD-9600-42b2-8EBE-1E012ED61058. html#WSB0DC278F-B3DF-4a60-88BC-B3D6A852C242 )
Or are you trying to save an file edited in Photoshop as a DNG?
For what purpose, exactly? A TIFF, PSD or PSB file can have a raw file, saved as a Smart Object (to allow later reprocessing in Camera Raw) and all the pixel/vector editing layers intact.
If saved with maximize compatibility, it can be opened in Lightroom for cataloging, and editing, if needed.

Given there are so many problems and removed features in Pages 5, why not just continue using Pages '09?

Can you save an mp3 file that you receive as an attachment to an email?

Can you save an mp3 file you receive as an attachment to an email?

Irwinwilliam-
With other attachments, you can press and hold on the attachment icon. One of the options that may appear is "Open In". Choosing that, any App that is capable of reading the attachment should show up as a choice. When opening the document that way, a copy is transferred to the App. I have not tried with an MP3 file.
For MP3, I think the Music App should be a choice. If so, the file should then appear with your other music.
If an inappropriate App appears in "Open In", you may be able to use it as a conduit to transfer the attachment to your computer. Run iTunes on your computer with the iPad connected. Select the iPad under DEVICES, and click on Apps at the top of the window. Scroll down to File Sharing and select that App. If successful, your document will appear to the right in the Documents window, where you can select it and Save As.

How can I save an attachment file

How can I save an attachment file To my iPad memory.

An iPad doesn't have a file system like a 'normal' computer, everything has to be stored within apps. Do you have an app that supports the type of file that the attachment is ? If you do then you might be able to press and hold the attachment in the Mail app and get a popup with an option to save the attachment to the app.

Let's try a preferences reset: (Windows)
Press and hold Control - Shift - Alt immediately upon cold-starting Photoshop. If you get the keys down quickly enough - and you have to be VERY quick - it will prompt you to confirm deletion of your established preferences, which will lead to them all being set to defaults.
