Can one set Preview to a save location?

Anyone have any suggestions on why Preview wants to always Save my scans to a <tmp> file.
See my original post: https://discussions.apple.com/message/16640192#16640192
Thanks for any suggestions.
PS Is there a way to unmark a post as Correct Answer or somehow indicate there is still an open thread? Thanks.

your guess is incorrect
the default save file format in preview is PNG regardless of what format file you open
if you open a jpeg and select and copy a portion of it and then save to clipboard and then save it as anew document, it will default to PNG
like the original poster i have been trying to get a satisfactory answer to this question and i believe there is simply no way to chnage the default image save format of preview
i hear you can do it for screenshots but i have tried and can't even do that sucessfully

  • How can one set a default location for the pictures on the hard drive?

    Since Windows normally places the pictures on a typical drive as "My Pictures" about four or five levels down from the root, any effort to import picture files into Lightroom requires multiple clicks to drill down to the "My Pictures" then (for example) year, month, date, etc.
    Can I define a location as the default starting point to find the pictures?  I don't see how to put that into presets. Or can a key shortcut be created to go straight to c:/users/name/mypictures/2013/April15 etc?
    Steve Board

    dj is right. Any Folder can be a picture folder.
    Create a root level folder and add it to your Pictures Library in Windows.  It will show up with all the scattered pictures from other programs. It can even be a different dirve if you like.  You  can even specify one to be the default save location for pictures in this dialog.
    Navigate to Pictures in your Libraries in Windows Explorer Right Click and select Properties.

  • Can one set "Navigation Pane Buttons" Left Sidebar to 'Default Hidden' and 'Not Open' upon opening Any .pdf document?

    Can one set "Navigation Pane Buttons" Left Sidebar to 'Default Hidden' and 'Not Open' upon opening Any .pdf document?

    Photoshop has to have full administrator rights to have read/write access.
    This means you need to run Photoshop CS5.1 in an Administrator account and set it up to "Run as Administrator."
    1. Close Photoshop if it's open.
    2. Right click on your Photoshop CS5.1 launch icon then select "Run as Administrator" from the context menu. (You will have to enter Admin Password if UAC is enabled to change this setting.)
    3. Launch Photoshop CS5.
    4. See if you create and save a document.
    Even if you are in an Administrator account you have to do this as Vista's Admin account isn't really the Super Admin as it is in XP so you have to elevate the rights by selecting "Run as Administrator". This setting is sticky so you should only have to do this once. I am not sure why CS3 is suddenly acting as if it does't have Admin rights unless you are running it in a new account that isn't an administrator or maybe uninstalled (cleanScript?) then reinstalled.
    If can't create or save a document, check that the account that Photoshop is in is an Administrator account.
    To check if you are in an Administrator account...
    1. Type user account in your Vista or Windows7 start search bar. (Start search bar is at the bottom of the panel that opens when you click the start Windows start globe located on the far left hand side of your Windows task bar.)
    2.  Click on "User Accounts" which should show up at the top of the list. This will open the dialog to User Accounts where you can "Change Your Account Type". If UAC (User Account Control) is turned on, you will need to enter the Admin password to change this setting.

  • How can I set the workgroup templates file location in Office 2013 to point at a folder stored on Sharepoint (2010/2013)?

    Hi All,
    Been doing quite a bit of research on this but drawn nothing but blanks or alternative suggestions, none of which are viable.
    So the outline of the issue:
    Deploying Office 2013 suite to organisation and wanting to have custom templates available for users to choose from, but want those templates to be centrally stored and managed on a SharePoint site. 
    In Word 2013, for example, when you create a new document, you are presented with a page to choose from 'Featured' templates (or blank document)
    So, if you wanted to have custom corporate templates, you could modify the file location for work group templates, thus creating a Custom Office Templates folder locally on your PC. 
    Great. This means when you select 'New' in Word 2013 you can pick from the 'Featured' templates, or the 'Personal' templates area.
    However, I have a collection of test corporate templates (for Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc). These are stored on a SharePoint site internally. 
    If I try to modify the work group templates location in Word 2013 to point towards my SharePoint site (or any HTTP address for that matter) it won't work.
    I know that I could point it towards a Network Share location instead, but I don't want to do that. 
    Is there any way of getting it to point towards a SharePoint site, any way of modifying it? Or perhaps an even better solution that I could use? 
    Any help, thoughts or ideas would be massively appreciated! And forgive me if any of my logic is off, but it does seem like this should be a straight forward thing to do given that Office and SharePoint are both developed by Microsoft and you
    would like to think they would inherently have better links!
    NOTE: Going to Office 365 is also not an option either!
    Eagerly awaiting an answer from someone incredibly clever!

    Hi Tony, 
    Thanks for your response but this is not what I was looking for. 
    Those articles relate to setting a default template in a SharePoint document or form library.
    I will try to be more concise.
    What I want is:
    (1) For users to be able to load MS Word 2013 on their laptops/desktops (connected to corporate Wireless/LAN)
    (2) Once they have opened MS Word 2013, I want them to be able to choose a template from the welcome screen. (There are MS Word Defaults like 'Blank Document' or 'Cover Letter' etc)
    I want to add a second tab which is called 'Personal' or 'Corporate'.
    (3) MS Word 2013 allows you to create custom WORD templates and save them locally on your machine (either in the default location for templates, or a user-specified custom location (e.g. My Documents, Desktop etc).
    (4) In advanced settings, there is an option to modify file locations. This is where you can point MS Word 2013 towards the folder (locally) that contains the personal templates that you have designed which you want to use.
    (5) QUESTION: Is there a way to have lots of corporate WORD templates (perhaps one for Marketing, Sales, Procurement, Project etc) - Basically LOTS of different templates all stored in one location on SHAREPOINT, or in a SharePoint document
    library. THEN... once those templates (documents) are stored on SharePoint,
    IS THERE A WAY to go back into the advanced settings within MS WORD 2013 and modify the file location for templates so that it points towards the SharePoint document library? 
    I want all the templates to open in MS Word 2013, not within a browser, and I don't want users to have to go to SharePoint to find a template, I want it to be integrated into their local MS Word 2013 so they can choose a corporate template the moment they
    load up MS Word 2013.
    When I have tried to modify the custom file location for templates, I can only set it to an address locally on my machine, or a network address (mapped network drive). 
    However, I do not want the templates to be stored on a shared network folder, I want them to be in a SharePoint Document Library. 
    The issue I have found is that I cannot enter a SharePoint Library URL as my file location, nor can I enter any HTTP address. 
    IS THERE A WAY AROUND THIS? 

  • How can I set the minimum size the location bar should automatically resize to

    I have moved all of my navigation buttons, location bar and tabs to be in line. This has been done to maximise the available space on screen.
    This works perfectly with two or three tabs open, but once more tabs are opened the location bar automatically shrinks to allow for more tabs and becomes unusable. I want to set the minimum size the location bar should shrink to but I do not know how to do this.

    Hi There,
    In Presenter 10 Video Express, when you close the project then it will prompt to save it and it will get saved to by default location  C:\Users\ User account\Documents\My Adobe Presenter Video Projects and you cannot change that location.
    You can also publish your project to your Computer by clicking on Publish and it will get published to the C:\Users\ User account\ Documents\ My Adobe Presenter Video Projects Published and you cannot change that location as well while publishing to your computer but after publishing your output then you can move the published output folder to the location where you want to place the output.

  • How can one find where a bookmark is located?

    As briefly as I can: in Opera 12.16 there was a very useful way of managing bookmarks. When you issued a query in the "search" bar, you not only got the exact references to the bookmark you were looking for, but also WHERE in the "bookmarks" file it was located. For example: if you had a "DuckDuckGo" bookmark in a "Search Engines" folder, after querying for (e.g.) "DuckD" you received both a pointer to the DuckDuckGo bookmark, AND one to its actual location in its proper folder.
    In Firefox, instead, if you issue a query in the "search" bar, you receive a chaotic and unordered list of "names", with no reference whatsoever to where every name points to: no folders, no subfolders, nothing.
    Which is very disheartening for a user, like this writer, who has accumulated a HUGE number of bookmarks (some of which go back even to 1998, the year of the beginning of my "Internet" age).
    Now I ask: is there any way to have Firefox's bookmark management work like the one of the old, "pre-Chromeization" Opera 12.16? If such a way doesn't exist yet, wouldn't it be the time to include it in a future release of the Fox?
    Thank you in advance :)
    Harken

    Thank you very much, the-edmeister.
    Well: when you say «I doubt if it will be added by Mozilla at this late date», I must admit I more or less suspected it ;) (or, in other words, my previous question was all in all just a "''ballon d'essai''", to see if there was any possibility in that direction.)
    Anyway, let me add that it's a pity we have, as usual, to resort to - ''hear ye, hear ye! '' - '''yet another add-on''' [1], for a function which is patently so fundamental (in the bookmarks management) that it would deserve to be included already in the original code.
    I LOVE Firefox (which keeps on reminding me of my "first love", Netscape Navigator): to the point that, just recently, I've had a harsh exchange in a forum with a fellow who, as it has become more or less custom nowadays, was complaining that "Firefox has become SO HEAVY and SO BLOATED in its latest releases" (and the obvious subtext was: "while, on the contrary, Chrome... blah blah blah".) My objection has been
    * that, first of all, Chrome HASN'T GOT ANY BOOKMARK MANAGEMENT (at least, not one deserving any mention), as opposed to the Fox, which has one (my exact words) that is definitely SUBLIME (and it's true: second only to that of Opera 12.16, which is the ONLY reason why I still maintain the old-style Opera up and working, despite the fact that it clearly begins to show its age); and
    * moreover, that with Firefox, in that precise instant, I was being able to keep '''750 tabs contemporarily opened''' (due to the fact that Firefox lets you decide whether you want the tabs to load as soon as you open them after a link, or not: a possibility which Chrome and its derivatives don't have); where, on the contrary, at least in my experience, already with 100-150 tabs Chromium and its derivatives begin to show clear signs of "''insanity''" =D
    Too bad, however, that the SUBLIME quality of our bookmark management system is slightly "spoiled" by this kind of - I dare to define them - "''coding superficialities''" (or, which is the same, "''design superficialities''").
    Thank you for your kind answer (and for your suggestion: yes, I had already searched through the add-ons repositories... but I missed those two extensions)...
    Peace :)
    P.S.: [1] an add-on which, incidentally, happens to work PERFECTLY!!

  • Can you change the iDVD default save location in the Documents folder?

    This may be a stupid question, but I've looked through the preferences and searched through the forums and online in general, but it seems like that's such a basic function and I can't find anything on it!

    For new projects when you go to same you should see the save window which, if you expand it, will allow you to save anywhere you would like. For existing projects you can do a save as and use the Save as window to change the location. The screenshot is typical of a Save As or Save window:

  • Expression pedal: can one set absolute values?

    I have a set up where I am using an expression pedal (Moog pedal through an Apogee Gio) to control the resolution value in Bitcrushed in Mainstage. The pedal is fine when it is all the way on, but is so sensative that it sweeps rapidly to off when I change press down on it. Is there a way to adjust the speed of its sweep, and also to set an absolute low value so that it does not go all the way to zero?

  • Can one set up Lightroom to allow use of manufacturer's printer profiles and Advanced Color Settings

    I like the effects that I can apply to my B&W images using Advanced Color Settings, but understand that I get best print quality using the manufacturer's paper profiles. However, I get locked out of Advanced Color Settings unless I choose "Managed by Printer". Can I do both - select a specific paper profile and use Advanced Color Settings? Thanks

    I don't know what printer you are using. But if you want to use all of the controls in the Lightroom print module you need to let Lightroom manage the color. For my printer, this requires making that choice in Lightroom and then disabling color management in the printer driver. Then, using Lightroom, I am able to use all of those settings and choose the appropriate profile provided by the paper manufacturer.
    With my printer, if I choose to let the printer manage the color, I can make all of those choices in the printer driver. But you cannot split your management between Lightroom and your printer.  You have to go one way or the other.

    Our home directories (My Documents) are network mapped drives.
    I have tried the usual uninstall/reboot/install methods, each with the same problem.
    Is there a config file/registry entry where I could set a default file save location?
    Does anyone have any idea why it might be doing this?  Even better, someone with a fix would be great!
    Many thanks,
    Chris.

    Has it to do with networked mapped drives?
    Not in my case. But,
    Time consuming googling and much trial and error and irritations offered a working solution in this case.I suppose this is included the price and goes with the delivery.
    It was on some thread on PRE version 8 or something, where on the same problem someone suggested to create a new account and start PRE.
    Remarkably, among dozens of other well-meant, but not working solutions, this one worked:
    - Create a new account - any name (for safety's sake with administrative rights)
    - Logg off and log on with the new account
    - Start up PRE
    - Choose New Project
    This time default location was not grayed out: it showed: C:\Users\newaccountname\AppData\roaming....
    Moreover: clicking the browse button to save the project on a different directory or partition did not result in te 'serious error' message, as did before.
    So I saved the project in a new created directory on a different partition and changed the drive-preferences also to this directory. (hoping the problem was solved when I log in with my original account).
    So:
    - create an new directory for the PRE project somewhere else (not in 'users') 
    - browse to save the new project in this directory
    - change the preferences (edit>prefereneces>media+workdisk) so that all the locations refer to the directory of the newly created project (later to be changed if necessary)
    - close PRE
    But the next step to log off, log in on my first original account and start up PRE again resulted in the same error as before.
    However, the saved project of my newly created account was still there in the directory I saved it in (extension: .prel).
    So I tried to open PRE by clicking on this file with the extension .prel. PRE opened with no problem.
    So:
    - log off and log in with the original account
    - search for the new project file (extension .prel) and open PRE by clicking on the new project file.
    Then I saved the project again in the same directory, started up PRE and choosed New Project. This time the default location was not grayed out;
    it showed the directory from where I started up PRE with the file .prel. The browse button (to safe to a different location) worked.
    Then I erased the newly created account completely, logged off and in and started PRE from startmenu>programs. No problems.
    Finally:
    - save the the project again and close PRE
    - erase the newly created account(with account managament + manually delete directory \users\newaccountname
    - log off and log in on the original account
    - open PRE from startmenu>programs
    It is hardly to imagine, since this problem exists since PRE8 or earlier, this amateuristic way of installing PRE is part of the deal. Nor any solution has been suggested by Adobe since then, nor apparently taken into account in their new versions/updates.
    Disappointing.

  • How does one set up a file sharing password?

    Hi,
    My wife and I use the same Airport Extreme station to access the Internet and each other’s machine. Every time one of us wants to connect to the other machine via AFP, a dialog box springs up that has radio buttons, giving the choice of ‘Registered User’ or ‘Guest.’
    Where, on the serving computer, can one set up a ‘registered user’ with a password? Would doing so allow the registered user a wider access than only the ‘Drop Box?’
    Thanks,
    Klaus

    "Registered user", in effect, means "OS X user on the machine being shared". So, you could, right now, click on "registered user" and log in to your wife's Mac using her login details (and vice versa). If you log in as a user, as opposed to a guest, you get access to that user's entire home folder. If that user is also an administrator, you get access to the whole system drive.
    Guests actually have access to the "Public" folders in the system (which includes the Drop Box).
