Can't use properly "Save as..."

I just got a new macbook pro form work and I noticed that I can't use "Save as..." to directly save pdf or images. If I use "save as.." on a pdf link I simply get the name "url" while if I try on images I get "imgres". I'm pretty sure I've already seen this problem but can't remember how I fixed it. On my old mbp "Save as..." works normally.
Thanks

This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Can't use the Save As Reader Extended PDF option

Hi team,
I have exactly the same issue as was discussed here (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/865292)
But I have lecensed Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.
I use Create Form from Existing Document (no securyty restructions - see pictures below).
I was able to use that functionality (Save As Reader Extended PDF) once and than saving options became grayed out with any document (pdf, doc including the one I used originally) as a template.
Could you please help me?
Thanks,
Vsevolod

The issue fixed (there was no issue)!
I should close form editing before saving PDF

Can not use the "save as" option

I can create a new file and save it just fine. If I open an existing picture/photo and edit it, I can save it, however I cannot save it as different file type.
When I try to click on "save as" no windows pop-up; nothing happens.

A save as window should open up. When Photoshop start to act strangely the first thing I do is to reset my Photoshop preferences often this will straighten out Photoshop.

I got bad advice at the Apple store - ended up with an iPhone 6 I can't use properly. What now?

Hey folks,
I'm hoping I have some options that I can leverage.
The story goes like this:
- I went to the Apple Store in Palo Alto as I was visiting
- I wanted to purchase the iPhone 6 with the intent of using it in Australia
- I spoke with the staff and they told me that I should purchase the device full price and they pointed me to a model on their product list as well that would work far east / Australia
- I proceeded to make the iPhone 6 purchase at full price
- When I reached back in Australia, to my dismay, it turned out that the phone refused to support 4G LTE because of incompatible frequencies. I was told by folks locally that the model I was told to purchase was the wrong one for the market (A1549) !!
Two questions:
- Aren't the Apple store folks supposed to know the difference between the models particularly as I'd specifically requested for it?
- Is there absolutely any recourse for me (now that the phone and I are both in Australia) ?
Thanks!

There is no guarantee that any US iPhone will get 4G/LTE in any other country but it should work on 3G. You also have no warranty with that phone. The only unlocked iPhone currently sold at the Apple Store is the T-Mobile model although the Verizon model is also unlocked.
To get a model for the Australian market that works on 4G/LTE you should purchase the model A1549 in Australia. If you purchased your iPhone from the US in the past 30 days you can return to the states and return it.

How can I use the "Save As..." feature in Pages or Text Edit again?

After updating both the programs to Lion OS X standards, it has lost the functionality to do so.

Thank you!
Unfortunately, I gave the "Correct Answer" to myself by mistake. I didn't think I could do that. I'll give the "Helpful" anyway.

Can not use default screen saver with this version of Mac OS X

Hello,
I created a 10.6.4 image on a Mac Pro that I have installed on a new 27" iMac. Every thing works fine, as expected, except the screen savers (all Apple default). All screen savers appear in the list when booted off the Mac Pro, but when booted off the iMac, all but 2 disappear (Computer Name and Flurry). Also, the ones listed under Pictures show up, but when I try to use one it says "Can not use 'screen saver name' with this version of Mac OS X - Contact your vendor."
Also, the flurry screen saver runs extremely slow.
Unfortunately, I don't have another iMac to compare versions with, but I've compared with a new Macbook Pro and they are exactly the same. Is there a cache or a pref I can flush?

The old screensavers were about the first things that didn't work when moving to Snow Leopard, so my guess would be the iMac is booting in 32-bit vs 64-bit mode (or whichever mode is incompatible with your screensavers).

HT5624 Why I can't use my iMessage features?

I can't use my iMessage features, it always says I need to verified it to my email address written in the screen, so when I check my email adders there is no verification link or email coming from Apple. And I don't have also FaceTime icon in my screen. Please do advice me how can I use properly my iPad.thanks

should work - we shoot AV often - high f should cause lower shutter speed - no high speed sync needed unless you are in blazing sun.
One thing to realize is that in most all shooting modes (AV, TV, etc) Canon wants to do fill flash - i.e., the camera tries to set the exposure so that the background is correct and uses flash to fill-in. Thus, problems can occur in dark conditions where setting a high f would not be possible (shutter speed cannot go low enough to compensate for the narrow aperture) for correct background exposure. You can over-ride this with manual settings, but will probably end up with a really dark background - that or you have to use to high ISO settings to allow for a correct aperture/shutter speed combo.

I can't save properly, I can't use effects properly, and I need HELP!!

I've had iMovie HD 6 for a while now. It was quite lovely at first. It did exactly what I wanted it to do, and it did exactly what it was supposed to do. I use it often, and I have quite a few iMovie files saved to a special folder because sometimes I need to edit my movies later on.
For a while now (around eight months or so) I've been struggling with iMovie. iMovie is winning. My first and biggest problem is the fact that my iMovie files won't save properly. All my movies are in the place I want them to be, I save, and then I exit iMovie. The next day I open up the file to work on my movie, and everything is gone except for titles, photos, stillframes, background music and sound effects, and any clips that I edited. I've been dealing this by simply never exiting iMovie while I'm working on a project. iMovie will stay open for days (sometimes weeks) at a time until I finish and can put it onto iDVD and burn it. It burns fine. Another way I've been dealing with it is by editing every single clip in my movie with the effect settings placed so that nothing is actually changed. For instance, I'll use the Hue Adjust effect on every clip, but I won't touch the settings on it so that all the clips look exactly the same as before. This worked well for a while, and it brings me to my second problem...
My second problem is that I can't use my effects properly anymore! Over the months, more and more effects would become unusable. Now I don't have any that work properly. For instance, if I try to use the Fairy Dust effect, I will still have a sparkle going across the clip as I'm supposed to, but the entire clip will be many shades lighter as if I used Brighten and Contrast to make the clip lighter even though I didn't. It is the same for every other effect now. They work, but they make the clip they are used on lighter.
One more problem is that I can't export to Quicktime with Full Quality. If I do full quality, the movie freezes at a single frame partway through the movie while the audio keeps going. I always assumed that this was because the file was too large to work properly, but if I could export my movies with full quality, I would feel better about deleting my iMovie project files. It's always done this. It's not a new thing.
Wow, I have way too many problems with iMovie. Help with any one of them would be greatly appreciated! I really need to do something about this soon. I've tried reinstalling iMovie, but there was no difference. Thank you so much!

It would be a good idea to do close down all programs and do a permissions repair. Use the Utilities/Disk Utility application on your Mac hard drive and follow the on screen directions.
After that, with iMovie closed trash the file com.apple.iMovie.plist file located in User/Library/Preferences. iMovie will create a new file on relaunch.
If you are storing your project on an external hard drive, make sure that your external hard drive is formatted for Apple. Should be Mac OS extended. If you reformat, first remove all of your data on the external drive to another drive, because reformatting will erase all data on the drive.
Update all of your iLife programs to current, particularly Quicktime.
Finally, make sure that you have enough free disk space on your startup drive--at least 10GB, and more is better.

Folder level script? How can I use field value as a pdf filename in save as dialog box

I read somewhere that if you use a folder level script, you can do things like save a pdf with a specific filename - possibly based on a field name.
How would one set up a folder level script?
How do you execute a script from the PDF?
What code would you use to change the PDF name to the contents of the fFieldName text field?
Or, is this really just impossible to do?

The article is interesting. It suggests you place code like this:
// Page Replacement Function
var ReplaceLastPage = app.trustedFunction( function(cPath) {
app.beginPriv();
this.replacePages(this.numPages-1, cPath); app.endPriv();
In the trusted folder. What is the path of the trusted function(s) that get automatically loaded into Acrobat?
I assume in the example above, function(cPath) is a function inside of the PDF...

Can I use the new Time Capsule to backup my mid 2010 Macbook Pro?
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.

Targa files used to save paths, but I can't get it to work now.

I've been using targa files to provide my marketing team with images that work in their space planning program that include transparency. I use an alpha channel to do this, and that part remains in fine working order. However, I used to save these targas on our network drive and they would retain paths we had created so we could easily select different parts of products and change the color for proposals the marketing team wanted to do.
It's been a little while since this functionality has stopped working for me, and I can't for the life of me figure out why.
They take substantial resizing after the fact, so just generating them from the PSD file every time is not an option. We still need the full size images from time to time anyway, and I'm talking about thousands of images. The size it would take on our network would make IT BM in their collective pants.
Edit: I suppose I should say that I recently upgraded to CC, but I've been having this problem before then with CS5 as well. On a Mac, running Mavericks.

I appreciate the reply. It's unfortunately not helpful for this problem.
The sheer number of images we end up having to edit makes working on PSDs prohibitive, so we start and finish new versions of the products using only the TGA files. These files don't retain any of the channels created by masks in the PSD.
When we have a product that has only one possible color, selecting the channel that we use for transparency works to grab the item for color correcting, but often times there are multiple parts to the product (wheels, handles, etc.) that need to be selected individually to create the color combinations marketing needs.
I suggested to my coworkers that we could create channels for all the different features, but without testing to make sure this doesn't break the functionality in the space planning program, it's not something we want to try.

How can i use iphoto pics on another mac across network for screen saver?

how can i use iphoto pics on another mac A across the home network for the screen saver on Mac B?

That's exactly what I tried to do, but the iPhoto librry doesn't show up in the pulldown menu. If I click "Choose Folder", the iPhoto library is greyed out and unable to be selected.
For some reason, iPhoto is an option in the pulldown library on my older iMac but not on my MacBook Pro. What gives?
