Can't save Flash CS5 files

Hi, I can't save my Flash CS5 files. I click file, save as, then appears a gray window with a menu drop down but I can't find any folder to save the file...I've tried to upload a screen shot but when I try to upload the picture the very same gray window appears and I can't do anything...Anyone could give me a hand? When I use other Adobe programs as After effects and Premiere everything works perfectly...!

Hi Greg,
Thanks for emailing me your FLA file so we could investigate.  It looks like one of your assets is corrupted.  This file crashes even in Flash CS4 when I drag sparks.jpg to the stage.
Flash CS5 crashes more quickly because it tries to validate this asset on save but can't because that asset is corrupted.  If you remove sparks.jpg from the library, you can save the file in Flash CS5.
Thanks,
Nivesh

  • Open Flash CS5 file in CS4

    Hey all,
    I think I know the answer to this, but ... Is there any way I can open a CS5 file in CS4? A designer I'm working with created some files using her CS5. She's on vacation for 2 weeks (so I can't have her edit or resend the files as CS4) and I just got an email that the client needs a couple tweeks and all I have is CS4. Is there any way (or any program) that can backwards convert a CS5 file?
    Thx.

    If you had access to CS5 you could save as CS5 or save as CS4 (but not CS3 or below).  But opening a CS5 Flash file in Flash CS4 produces a "unexpected file type" error.

    42nato,
    You may try the list (skip 5) in this case).
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media, see below. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • Whenever I try to save a file as a PDF, it tells me it can't save because the file is open somewhere else. This is not the case and I have tried it with different files. Please help. You can also call me at:(301)651-9616

    Whenever I try to save a file as a PDF, it tells me that it can't save, because the file is open somewhere else. I don't have anything else open. I have also tried different files and they all say the same thing. Help.

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

  • 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 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.

    how can I save a jepg file in lower case letters? I check the use lower case box in preferences but it's not happening. PSCC

    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.

  • Can I transfer my CS5 files from my Windows 7 computer to my Mac Yosemite computer and have them work with CS6 for Mac?

    I am using Dreamweaver CS5 on a Windows 7 laptop.  I would like to change to Dreamweaver CS6 on my Mac running Yosemite.  Can I transfer my CS5 files from the  Windows computer to the Mac and will CS6 be able to work those files on the Mac?  I do not need nor want a subscription account.  Just the stand-alone program for occasional tweeks to my web site.  at www.longwayhome.com.
    It is a realtively simple web site that requires only simple editing from time to time.

    Yes, your files in CS5 are just .html, .css, .php and .js files, there's nothing that makes them "CS5 versions" of those file types.
    You can do it a couple different ways, but the easiest would be to copy the folder being used as the root directory (and all of it's contents) from one machine to the other, then on the new machine, simply set up a new site definition, using that newly copied folder as the local root.
    If you want, you can export your site settings (FTP and whatnot) on the old machine...
    Go to Site > Manage Site> click the site you want > Export
    Copy the resulting .ste file along with the local root folder to the new machine
    On the new machine go to Site > Manage Sites > import to bring in the .ste
    Relink that new site to the newly copied root folder

    I just had the same problem, after working on a project for a couple of hours and thinking it was saved, I go back to work on it some more and all the work I had done was not there. This is totally frustrating. I posted here as well and haven't had any responses. Good luck to you.

  • 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.
