Can I save a transparent psd file as a JPEG keeping trancparency?

I have an Image of a chair which it was extracted from its back ground in CS3 and I want to be able to save it as a Jpeg preserving transparency.Like an object.
Thanks for your attention.

JPG - "photographic" images with many colours. Losses some quality. Small file size. No transparency (although it does support clipping paths, but not for web).
GIF - max. 256 colors (8-bit). Lossless. No good for photos (large files, few colors). Good for tiny images and "illustrations". Supports making one of the 256 colors transparent (really limited).
PNG - New and better format than gif. Lossless. Supports both 8-bit like gif, but also full-color images. No good for photos (large files). Supports proper transparency (the kind you want; use save for web, 24-bit png, and check for transparency).
Note that 24-bit PNG files with transparency aren't properly supported in some older browsers (I'm looking at you IE!). Workarounds actually exists for this if it's a problem.

How can I save a CYMK PSD file as a PDF in CS5?

I am able to make the file in CS4 on another computer I use (PC). However when I try to save a CYMK PSD file as a PDF in Photoshop CS5 I don't see the option in the drop down menu? Any ideas? Here are some of the file details
CMYK
PSD
8 bits/channel
Thanks
Evren

For some reason when I started my computer this morning and went to take a screen grab of my intent the option was there. Could it be because I had to install Adobe Acrobat Pro? I guess that would more than likely be a obvious thing-?
For some reason when I was given Adobe Master Suite at work Acrobat didn't come with.
Thanks for your assistance.

Transparency flattening - unwanted color added to transparent PSD files (IDCS3)

Recently (after switching to CS3) I began experiencing frustrating problems in relation to (what I think is the problem) transparency flattening.
The problem seems to evolve in the printing process where "something" messes up the transparency by adding a 1% (typically) magenta color to the transparent flattened image. (I´m using transparent PSD-files)
This means that the bounding box-area of the image is actually visible in print! I can see this on my own prints (tested on several in-house printers), but worse is that I´m having the same problem with the material I receive from the printing house.
- When I check my PSD files in Photoshop there is no color but a transparent background.
- In Indesign I´ve tried a lot of different output settings and job option files but with the same result.
- In Acrobat my "output preview" measures no deviations, but when I (touch up tool > right click) edit image from inside Acrobat and the image file opens up in Photoshop the 1% is added.
For now I´m dealing with the problem by adding clipping paths to my PSD files which is a pretty untenable situation!
Apparently the problems seems to occur also on transparent .tiff filer etc.
I´m working in CS3 on OSX and I haven´t changed my workflow whatsoever since CS2.
The printing house is aware of the problem but haven´t experienced the problem before.

Sounds to me like an RGB/CMYK colour space issue.
If your image is in RGB but your InDesign document export settings are for CMYK (or vice versa) then you have Adobe converting the colours for you. Since there is a colour shift between the two colour spaces, you have no control over how the conversion happens.
In photoshop, "white" is not the same between RGB and CMYK and I often find there is 1 or 2% magenta in the mix (just as you're finding) when going from RGB to CMYK.
The transparency flattener function is pretty much the same as flattening the layers in photoshop - when it gets to the bottom layer you get one image with a box around it. the same in InDesign - everything that has a transparency (including images with no background) is flattened down on all the objects underneath to create a single image. If the transparent object is just on the paper then it gets a white box around it.
I suggest you check that your images are converted to CMYK in photoshop, and that your PDF export settings in InDesign convert all colours to CMYK. then ensure you use the High Quality in the transparency flattener settings.
Good luck!

I can't save an old InDesign file to the new version

I can't save an old InDesign file to the new version. I keep getting this message:
I can only save the file as .IDML.

This happens to ALL old InDesign files on my iMac (problem does not happen on my Macbook pro). I have saved the files as .idml and opened them again. I get the same error when I try to save the file as .indd. They can ONLY be saved as .idml.
I never embed images and do not have font issues (file was created on the same iMac as it is being opened on now).
Sometimes I get an error when I first try to open an old file - it ays the file is damaged and can't be opened. I try again right after and it opens fine.

Yes, if you are asking about using Time Machine to backup the Mac.
Also can I want to free up my hard disk, can I save my photos and files on the time capsule and later access through wifi?
You are not thinking of deleting the photos and files on your Mac, are you? If you do this, you will have no backups for those files.
Another concern is that Time Machine backs up the changes on your Mac. At some point, Time Machine will automatically delete the photos and files from the Time Capsule.....you just don't know when this might occur.
In other words, only delete files from your Mac that you can afford to lose.

Can I save an open PDF file as a .jpg using Acrobat Reader?

Is there some kind of ad-on or other (third party?) program which would allow Acrobat reader to save or convert a PDF to a JPG? I have the full version, along with Adobe Creative Suite, so I know I can do it with those programs. This is for a friend with whom I share files and he only had the Acrobat Reader.
Thanks

No, Adobe Reader can only save as a text file, or using ExportPDF as Word or Excel documents.
However, use Google to find many free PDF conversion tools on the Internet.

Is this a particular sender, or all of your attchments? Google winmail.dat and you will see a number of returns that can explain this, but in short, this is the way some e mail providers deal with attachments. If all of your e mail is coming that way, you need to change a setting on your isp set up. Perhaps stary here...

HT4623 How can I save the update download file as I have several devises to upgrade and cant afford the bandwidth to do each via iTunes

How can I save the update download file as I have several devises to upgrade and cant afford the bandwidth to do each via iTunes.
There does not appeare to be any doenloadable files in the download section.

"Well that's totally unacceptable."
Actually you can only accept it, as it is the way it is. You may not like it, but it is so. Sorry.
" your seriously telling me that Apple expect me to download the same huge file 8 TIMES"
That is exactly what I am telling you.
" No way."
Still true.
"Apple are going to have to come up with another solution."
No. They do not have to do any such thing. They may choose to do so in the future, but there is no reason to believe that they will.

Can't save my Text Edit files!

Hope I'm in the right forum. This started yesterday and I don't know why or how to fix it.
I can't save my Text Edit Files (rtf). I got 1 error message that can't save file until problem is fixed but I have no idea what the problem is.
Running Text Edit 1.7.1 (289.5). iMac OS 10.7.5
Can Someone help?
Thanks
Allen

Hi,
I've been having a similar problem with nonsensical error messages from text edit when I try to save. Repairing permissions doesn't seem to have helped, but I have found that checking the 'hide extension' box in the save window seems to get around it.
cheers all

How can I recover an overwritten PSD file?

I was working on an image which is supposed to have many layers in it, I merged the layers and I supposed to save it as a JPG file, but I didn't. I accidentally save it as PSD with the same file name, and I turned off the application. Now, I couldn't edit the file, coz all the layers are been merged. Could someone teach me where can I find its backup, or teach me how to recover the old PSD file? Thanks...

how to recover the old PSD file?
No way. You have overwritten it, which is something different than doing an "undelete" on an accidentalyl deleted file - your data is occupying the same space on the harddrive now and anything that was there before is now gone.
Could someone teach me where can I find its backup
There is none, as obviously you did not do any incremental saves and file versions. Well, you now have learned this the hard way...
