Thanks

How can I change my safari preferences to save a file rather than download

How can I change my safari preferences to save a file rather than it downloading

When I click on the 'save application file, it download's it and doesn't give me the option to save it.
I can't be sure, but what probably happens is that the page doesn't give you a link to a downloadable file, but a button which activates a script. There's nothing you can do about that, because you don't control the script.
it just downloads the transcripts not the document.
It sounds like the downloaded file does not open or execute as it's supposed to (which, for instance, would happen if what you downloaded was a Java application, but you didn't have Java installed).
If you are allowed to, give us the URL and we'll have a look. Also, you should add what version of Mac OS X and of Safari you are using, and you should correct your profile (which says "Mac Pro" -- this forum is for the MacBook Pro, which is a different computer from the Mac Pro).

Is there a way to change the default image save to .jpg rather than.bmp?

Currently the default save is a .bmp file. I do not see a way to change this in the <edit> <preferences> area. Also is there a way to export/save a designated area on a pdf as a .jpg image file rather than the options given: Word, Exel, Powerpoint, .rtf, html, etc. I currently have to take a snapshot (often clicking this twice) and then opening it in photoshop, then changing it to black and white (if needed) in order to save it as a .jpg

Opening messages and having them save on desktop rather than mail downloads

how do I make it so that when I click on an attachment in an email message, it will be downloaded into my desktop and not my mail downloads folder. when I had panther, it always just moved any documents or files I opened on the message directly onto desktop so I could find it and move it into the proper folder quicker. I never even used the save function on the message so the downloads folder on my dock would be obsolete. maybe thats why its there, but honestly it takes more time to do it like that so I prefer to just have the ones I need and want to open moved to the desktop as I open it for the first time.

I guess my question wasn't specific enough. Im actually talking about when I double click an attachment that is on the email and it opens with the correct application, the attachment then saves itself onto the Mail Downloads folder which is located under the Library folder. I think what you mean is when I press Save for my attachments, that I can change where it goes. Which is not my concern at this time. With the previous OS, I could double click an attachment and it would immediately save to my desktop and not the Mail Downloads folder in the Libary.

Anytime I click on a .pdf I am asked to save the document rather than allowing me to just view it.

Anytime I click on a link to a .pdf I am asked to save the document. I would like to simply view most. I have been unable to determine how to change this. I am not sure whether it is a setting in Firefox, Acrobat, or my system. In the dialogue box that asks whether I would like to open or save the file, I had checked the box indicating that the files should always be opened, but this did not happen. It kept asking whether to "open file" or "save file." Then I had a file I wanted to save, so I clicked that radio button and saved that file. Now, it will no longer allow me to open files.
Thanks for your help...

Please update to the most recent version of Firefox:
*[[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
[[How to fix preferences that won't save]] or reset the saved setting in the Applications panel-> [[Applications panel - Set how Firefox handles different types of files]]
Or set it as default:
In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
#Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac).
#In the Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac) window, select the ''Applications'' panel.
#In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
#On the right hand side you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Firefox - asking to Save/Download SWF rather than playing it inside IFRAME

Hi all, I have encountered a very strange thing with an SWF we have recently authored.
My client insists on embedding a FlashPlayer 9 SWF inside an IFRAME given the limitations of their content management system.
When they use this method to embed an SWF authored by us 6 months ago, everything behaves as expected - the Flash loads and plays within the IFRAME on their website.
When they use the very same method to embed an SWF from the same FLA authored by us this month, Firefox brings up the "Save File / Download" dialog box instead - the SWF does not play but instead is seen as a downloadable file.
I have verified this behaviour on a number of different computers that all have had no issues playing Flash content across all versions (Flashplayer 8 - 10).
What should we do to fix this problem?
Thanks,
Tom

Don't worry about what all the variables mean. It's not really apposite to the issue.

IPhone Synch results in Camera launch rather than iPhone?

I've tried this on two Windows XP computers running iTune 7.3. When I hook up the iPhone via USB it launches a windows option for Open with camera, scanner, Word... But I don't get the iPhone main screen. The computer only recognizes my iPhone as a camera. Any advice???

When you say manually..I've launched iTunes first, then connect the iPhone and then get the annoying option to open with the various programs..When it works correctly on another machine I get the iPhone screen... If you mean something different let me know- any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I recently updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, and lost 1200 odd contacts. I have a backup from about 4-5 months ago avaiable. Can I add/update contacts from the back up rather than restore which i assume will literally delete any new contacts added...?

I recently updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, and lost 1200 odd contacts. I recently sold my macbook air and also my mac book pro, so have no recent backups avaiable. I have a backup from about 4-5 months ago available on an external hdd as a time machine backup. Can I add/update contacts from the back up rather than restore? The reason i wish to do this is because in the update i didnt lose any messages, so all of the people i have met and networked with since that last update those many months ago, i have in my messages listings. They are all unidentified numbers at present but over time i will be able to work through the messages and based on the conversation recall who each was with. Also, yesterday, some two weeks after the update had left my contacts list entirely empty... a vast majority just reappeard, though all of them are without any phone numbers, all just emails or facebook contacts. This is the work of facebook not mac/ios6 isnt it...? Any help here would be greatly apprecaited. I am about 2 days from flying to canada and having those contacts would make life a lot easier.

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

Have a wrong email address which keeps popping up as a suggestion rather than the correct one which is in my contacts. How can I delete this? iPhone doesn't allow me to get to it to delete it like I can in Outlook.

I'm very glad that helped!
It's good you looked in the Manual first. Certainly not everyone does that.
With Apple products, I've found that not everything is completely documented, but sometimes if you try something that seems like it should work, it actually does work.
That's how I personally learned about this feature.
Enjoy your Apple gear!

Sorting contacts on iphone by company rather than individual names

has anyone seen an application that will sort the contacts by company name rather than the individual names?

You can't sort your contacts by anything but name directly on the phone, but a little work on the computer can give a result that might work. I create groups in my contact manager that syncs to the iPhone. I can put people from different businesses in different groups. That way I can choose a specific group to look through, rather than all the contacts. It also works to separate out family and friends, etc. But you can't create the groups on the phone, only on the computer, and then sync them to the phone.

How do I merge contacts rather than replace them during sync conflicts?

I just got my iPhone 4 a few days ago, and the Verizon sales associate transferred the contacts from my previous phone.
Now, when attempting to sync via iTunes 10.4 (80), I'm given only three options after a sync conflict notification regarding contacts synchronizing: Sync Now, Sync Later, Review changes (or something like that): Rather than merge pre-existing Address Book contacts, it wants to override them, regardless of whatever information I already have in the Address Book, assigning the iPhone info priority (so any Address Book entries would just be overwritten).
Why is it doing this? It doesn't strike me as well-designed at all, especially since merging contacts seems a fairly common thing these days. An apparent work-around would be manually editing the ~30 contacts in Address Book, and then deleting each off my iPhone, but surely there's a better and faster way? Please help!
Thanks for reading.

Try linking cards:
Open any contact you want to merge, tap on Edit and look at the bottom part of it. You'll find 'Link Cards' and from there you may select the contact you want to link with the one you're looking at. So if you have:
Contact 1: John A (job)
Contact 2: Business Name (who is also John A but you saved it as a different contact)
Contact 3: Something else that's also John A
You can link all three cards into one. If you choose to, you may unlink them at any time, just tap Edit and then the red circle. Your contacts won't be deleted, but they won't appear under the same ID anymore.

Call waiting says "multiple calls" rather than listing the number or the contact. Does anybody know how to fix this?

Call waiting says "multiple calls" rather than listing the number or the contact. This error is not consistent, sometimes it says "multiple calls" and other times it lists the contact. This is happening on a coworker's iPhone 4s. Does anyone know how to get it to list the contact every time?
Thank you,
Dan

It sounds as though it may not be ending calls correctly, I would try restarting the phone, and then resetting all settings.

How may I change the format to enter new contacts? I need to add a business name and would like to change the defaults to work rather than home.

I am entering new contacts into the contact app. I need to add a business name and would like to change the default for phone numbers from home to work. I am entering a large amount of business cards

Is there anyway of creatiing a different name for this Folder rather than 2013?
If you are using one of Lightroom's "date-based" folder templates, then the folders are created in accordance with the image capture date, not the date that you happen to import it. If you specifically want to use the import date for your folder names then you probably don't want to use the Lightroom date template, and instead you'll need to setup your folder names manually.
The vast majority of users that use date-based folder naming schemes will use a standard Lightroom template, i.e. based on the much more meaningful image capture date.

I have two options in my apple contacts. And I chose to not expose my hotmail contacts to limit the length of my list. Now whenever I add someone they get saved to my hotmail contact list, rather than iCloud. How do I change this?

Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), set this to iCloud.

Why is it when I enter a birthday date for a contact as the 12th of November 1993 that the birthday appears as the 11th of November and as the 19th birthday rather than the correct 20th?

Yoor post is very confusing. AOL's iPad magazine is called "Editions" and it's free. "The Daily" is put out by TheDailyHolding and is owned by Rupert Murdoch. You've already posted in another thread where the solution was given. Other people seem to have manged to get unsubscribed.
Best of luck.
