Can't save in CS5

Hi all, When I open Cs 4 InDesign documents in CS5, I am not able to save and also the Undo option is disabled. Any ideas?

Can you save to a new location or file name?
OS?

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

Is there a way to save a CS5.5 project as a CS5 project?

This hasn't happened yet, but I can see the day when I may need to open one of my CS5.5 projects in CS5 on someone else's computer. Right now, as far as I can tell, this is impossible. Or is it? Can I save a CS5.5 project as a CS5 project?
J. D.

Sorry, my thoughts again run faster than I can read and type...
I consider changing version number is much better than saving PrPro project as FCP XML, because you don't loose some effects etc. which are available in CS5, whereas you do loose some ones while saving a project as FCP XML...
The rest you said is absolutely correct.
P.S. Sorry for misunderstanding... Will never do it again (promise)

How can I save an HDR image from CS5 back to aperture as a tiff

I cant seem to get the hdr image to save back to aperture from CS5 . The save as box keeps coming up .

I am exporting 3 raw images to PS CS5 , merging in ps hdr pro ( mode 16 BIT , local adaptation ), then doing all the HDR adjustments.

Run out of Hard Drive space using Premiere Cs5- Can I save my work, buy and new hard drive?

I am in the middle of a project using premiere cs5 and I have run out of hard drive space. Can I save it, buy a new hard drive and install Premiere and then reopen it again without it effecting my project?

If you are talking about only having one drive for Windows and programs AND video data and project files, a better option is to buy a second drive and move your projects and video data files to the new drive

I'm using CS5 extended on a Mac and can't save png's

I'm using CS5 extended on a Mac and can't save png's. The program stops responding and I have to force quit.

Thanks.
I am in RGB colour space, but when I try to save a PNG photoshop stops responding and I have to force quit.
I have found a way to save PNG's using Preview, but it is worrying that PS crashes on me.

Can anyone tell me if you can back save from CS6 to CS5 Illustrator, Indesign and Photoshop OK?

Can anyone tell me if you can back save from CS6 to CS5 Illustrator, Indesign and Photoshop OK? Want to upgrade to CS6 but must I must still remain compatible with work. They are using CS5.

To clarify your answer for Illustrator. The option is not in the "Save As" dialog box.
The correct answer is
Open you CS6 Illustrator file.
File>Save As
The Save As dialog box opens
Type your file name (DIFFERENT THAN ORIGINAL PLEASE!) and the Save as Type is still going to be Adobe Illustrator (*.AI) **This is where the above instructions threw me, as the Save as type drop down does not list anything about versions to save fo)
Click Save
Once you click Save, the Illustrator Options dialog box will come up. The first option is titled Version and has a drop down menu. Select the version of illustrator you want to save your file as here, then click ok.
Your done.
I strongly suggest you give this file a different name than your original CS6 Illustrator version as you may lose some parts of your design in the conversion.
Hope this helps. Enjoy!

Can I save a file created in CS5 format .ai version 7?

Hello
I use a software that interfaces between my pc and laser engraver machine. This software can import documents only in formats of AutoCAD and Adobe Illustrator version 7.0.
Currently I make my drawings with CorelDrawX3 and later export to .ai 7.
Now I want to update my software, but the new version of CorelDraw not allow me to export to 7.0. I can make the effort and pay Illustrator (and change my drawing habits), but ¿can I save as 7.0 in the latest version of Adobe Illustrator?
Thanks

The latest versions only have 10, (9), 8 and 3 as Save options. No version 7. Sorry.

Photoshop CS5.1 suddenly can't save to main hard drive

This is very strange. In Photoshop I suddenly can't save files to the main hard drive on my mac mini. I get the error "Could not save as [filename] because the file is locked or you do not have the necessary access privileges. Use the ‘Get Info’ command in the Finder to unlock the file or change permissions on the file or enclosing folders." I can however save files to the secondary hard drive. Other applications can save to the main hard drive just fine.
As a test, in Photoshop I tried saving to the root of both drives. I get the error only when attempting to save to the main hard drive. I have checked the permissions of both drives and they are identical: system R/W, wheel R/W, and everyone R/W.
I have tried everything I can find on the message boards, but nothing works (disk repair, repair permissions, etc). I have also reinstalled Photoshop and get the same error.
any help much appreciated!
thanks,
JC

The problem has resolved itself!
All I did was reboot a few times in my attempts to get Command-R to work (I have a PC keyboard and the "option" and "command" keys are reversed until OS X boots).
Oh, one other thing I did... I logged in as a different user and ran Photoshop and was able to save a file to the main hard drive. Very strange because this guest user has less privilege than my normal login.

My college will not support CS5.5, yet I can no longer buy CS5... I am FURIOUS!

Adobe, you've screwed me Big Time, you greedy bastards!
I bought the Master Collection CS4 (windows) last summer, in preparation for a two-year college course. My school had versions 4 AND 5 (Mac), so other than the InDesign backward-incompatability bug, this worked reasonably well for the first year. Then, without warning (to students), the school was suddenly unable to purchase any more copies of CS5. During this past summer, the school had wiped all CS4 off of every last computer in its three labs. Now that the new school year has started, I have to buy CS5 so that my home studio is at least compatible with the school, but NO, I'm forced to buy CS5.5. The school recommends against it, and my department head warns me that I'll have problems that he won't be able to help me with, if I do buy it.
So what the hell am I supposed to do?! A year of doing all of my homework AT SCHOOL - while my perfectly decent CS4 Master Collection sits unused at home - simply isn't acceptable. Buying a copy of CS5 off of Amazon - at a minimum of 50% more $ than I'd pay at school - isn't acceptable, either. Adobe, you've lost a customer, and gained a verrrry vocal adversary. Hello, open source alternatives! Long may they flourish!!!

(1)     This is a User to User forum. It does not provide feedback to Adobe management but rather serves as a means for users of Adobe products to assist each other. You are not directly communicating with Adobe decision makers, but rather, yelling at other end users of Adobe products.
(2)     From what you describe, it would appear your real beef should be with your school in terms of what versions of software it has installed on its systems and what software it “wiped” from its systems, neither of which are controlled or influenced at all by Adobe but rather, by whoever manages your school's labs. Your school was not “suddenly” unable to purchase more copies of CS5. Assuming that your school is purchasing software as part of a volume license agreement, they still can get licenses for CS5 (although they cannot buy “shrinkwrap” retail copies of CS5.
(3)     You don't indicate which CS programs your department head thinks you would have problems with if you obtain and use CS5.5. Even for InDesign, you can save back to CS5 by exporting IDML without any real problems unless you use features in CS5.5 that aren't in CS5. For that matter, even if you use CS4 at home, CS5 at school certainly can open CS4 files without any problem and you can export IDML (from InDesign) for compatibility back home.
Bottom line is that you are not as “screwed” as you make yourself out to be. And in terms of any blame (if that's what turns you on), I suggest that you have a good heart-to-heart discussion with your school's lab manager, department head, etc. about what appears to be poor planning on their part. I honestly don't understand why you are so mad at Adobe.

Can files created in cs5.5 design premium be saved so they open in Photoshop CS2 or Illustrator CS4?

Can files created in cs5.5 design premium be saved so they open in Photoshop CS2 or Illustrator CS4?

Yes, you can save compatible files as long as you obey the rules like not using unsupported features such as nested groups, per group clipping masks, smart objects and several other things in Photoshop and use the "Maximize Compatibility" option. Illustrator will simply expand the appearance of objects or rasterize/ flatten them when going back to older versions if a feature is not available or changed in those old versions.

Save InDesign CS5 and CS6, js

Hi,
I need to save InDesign CS5 files as CS6 and overwrite the original, but I am not getting the save line correctly:
myDoc.save(myDocPath+"/"+myDocName, indesign-8.0, true);
What am I don't wrong?
Thank you.

Wow - I never noticed that a Converted doc does not have a valid name OR a valid fullName, unless it has been Saved once -- only the filePath is valid! (So a Converted doc behaves pretty much like a New Untitled doc.)
Off-hand, I don't see any other way to get the original doc name of a just-Converted doc.
But why not have the script open the ID CS5 document in ID CS6? ... then you can grab the File or path of the document before it is even open.
You must have a lot of documents to convert anyway, right? Otherwise you wouldn't need a script. So it seems like what you really want is something like a script that converts all of the CS5 documents in a folder to CS6. If so, it is not a very hard script to write, and I'll bet that someone has one already laying around...

Illustrator cc 2014 can't save files

Hi!
I Have a lot of problems with the Illustrator CC 2014. And it freaks me out. I have no idea how to reach Adobe. I've tried another Adobe forum but haven't heard anything.. I would appreciate some sort of help. Or if someone knows where to post the question?
1) First of all can't save files… I wish this could be the number one feature in a design app but apparently not..
I got "unknown error " and all work spent is gone forever. This happens a lot.
2) also lagging problems. when moving graphics and zooming in illustrator. it is SO stressful.
I have Two computers, with the same problems.
Imac 27 " mid 2011
Processor 3,4 ghz intel core i7
16 GB 1333 Mhz DDR3

Nils Petter,
If no brighter suggestion comes up, you may try the list, see below.
Did you install fully on both computers (after upgrading the OS if relevant)?
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. 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), for CS3 - CC you may find the folder here:
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/preference-file-location-illustrator.html
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.
