Pages freeze everytime trying to save a new document.

Hi,
I have a problem with my pages.
Everytime i want to save a new document, the program becomes unresponsive.
I've tried deleting the software and reinstall it but it the same thing happen again.
i'm not sure what cause this.
Anybody know anything?
Thank you for the help.

Which version of Pages ?
Which destination device ?
What if you use it from an other User Account ?
Oops, I forgot, are you using a registered version or the trial one for more than 30 days ?

I changed a password to a frequesntly used site. Firefox has not asked me if I want to save this new password and I have to keep changing the saved one to the correct one. How do I get it to save the new password?

I have websites I use for my employer that require a password. The employer requires these be changed periodically. Always before, if I changed the password, about the second or third time I tried to log in and changed the saved password to the correct one, Firefox would ask if I wanted to save the new password. It is not doing this now. How can I get it to save a new password? It keeps putting in the old one.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Private+Browsing
*You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
*To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Deselect: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"
The website may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving the name and password.

When I change a password, sometimes I get a pop-up asking if I want to save the new password - sometimes it doesn't appear. How can I save the new password if popup does not appear?

You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.

I am having trouble with an excel file wanting to save when no changes were made & opening as read only for the 2nd person - but allowing them to save the file.

1) I am having trouble with an excel file wanting to save when no changes were made. As soon as you open the file and exit. It prompts for a save.
All excel versions are 15.0.4701.1002.
Using a table.
the functions CELL, OFFSET, TODAY, INDIRECT, NOW, INFO and RAND are not being used.
2) Same file. 2nd person is being told they are opening the file as read only - but when they are quitting excel prompts them to save the file.
Everything was working fine. I started having problems with Excel, IT wiped my version out and re-installed office.
File is on networked server HP - Windows Server 2012 Essentials.
We are all on Windows 8.1 Pro.
I really hope someone can help - the excel expert had no answer - and passed me along to here.

I copied the whole file and started deleting worksheets one at a time and testing it by closing it and re-opening it then closing it again – to see if it wanted to save.
Once all the pivot tables were deleted – the problem went away.
I found that some of the pivot tables had automatic refresh upon open, so this caused the excel to think data had changed.
It is fixed now. By clicking on one cell of the pivot table, analyze, options, data and uncheck the 3<sup>rd</sup> square down to not automatically refresh. NOT A NETWORK ISSUE.

When closing a Word doc can you stop 'Do you want to keep this new document?'

Hi,
Everytime I close a Word document I keep getting the save document dialogue box appearing with the text 'Do you want to keep this new document [filename]?You can choose to save your changes, or delete this document immediately. You can’t undo this action.'.
How can you stop this? I just want to be able to open a Word document, view it and close it without the hastle of being asked if I want to save it or delete it.
Thanks for any help on this.
P.

Hi Pete,
When you open a Word document in Pages, it is converted to Pages format. Pages is asking if you want to save as a Pages document (and replace the Word document). You can stop the Save dialogue box by:
System Preferences > General > Uncheck Ask to keep changes when closing documents.
However, I would be careful. This will apply to all documents that you open in Pages (or Numbers or other apps). You might have a Pages document where you do want a reminder to save. Small problem to say 'Don't Save' to a Word document that you open to view, but don't want to save. I find it is safer to turn on 'Ask to keep changes when closing documents'. That puts you in charge of your work.
Another way to just view a document is to open the document in Preview or TextEdit (right click or control click, Open With).
Regards,
Ian.

How do I change my Itunes library to another computer without losing anything or replacing my existing files with ones on the new pc?

I recently broke up with my girlfriend and I'm trying to switch all of my info. around to my new place and pc. How do I save all of my existing files of music, etc. to the new pc and start a new itunes library using what I already have? I don't know what kind of info. that I would need about her pc or if I need anything at all. Can somebody please help?

- Transfer iTunes purchases to the new computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-part program like one of those discussed here:
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...Some third-party programs also allow moving synced photos to the new computer.
- Make a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and right clicking on the iPOd under Devices in iTunes and selecting Backup
- Restore the iPod from that backup and sync as necessary.

Trying to save a new document and then "The file "lyrics project.pages-tef" couldn't be opened."

As the title says... Open Pages, Create new document, click Save, the dialog box comes up, I give it a name and select the Desktop as the destination, click OK, the dialog box disappears for about a second and then I get the above message.
No way to save the doc. I even copied the text, opened another new document, Renamed it and tried to save and same results. It's a very simple document saved in Pages format, without involving iCloud so it should be as easy as it gets. On top of that, I just want to Save. Why is it trying to Open something???
I ended up having to copy the text into an email and sending it to myself in order to copy it into a SimpleText file.
Any ideas on what might have been going wrong?
MacBook Pro 13, OSX 10.8.2, current version of Pages.
Thanks much.
Bo

That is the iCloud version of the document as I understand it. There is a version saved on the Net for iCloud to be shared and a local version on your hard drive. One of those is currently inaccessible.

You usually see such a dialog to save a file if you have ad-blocking or security software that remove the GET data appended to a link to specify which file to load from the server.

PhotoShop CC cannot open .PSB files, wants to save everything as .PSB's

Is PhotoShop CC corrupting my files? I try to save them and it keeps making them .psb file types. When I turn right around and try to re-open the file it just created, PhotoShop gives me an error message that the .psb is not a PhotoShop file type. What's up? I tried opening a week's worth of files so far and am getting the same message. H E L P !!!
If I try to save them in another format, PhotoShop is changing the resolution from my very high resolution to a crappy very LOW and totally useless resolution.

The Plug-ins folders for Photoshop CC (32 and 64 bit) are here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC\Plug-ins
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC (64 Bit)\Plug-ins
A common way to foul up saving files is to copy old plug-ins, but if you don't remember doing that then chances are that's not the problem here.
I have a hunch that if you were to grab your screen at the time Photoshop is insisting you save your file as .PSB, save the screen grab as a JPEG, and post it here that something may be revealed that will help lead to a solution to the root cause of the problem... Could you do that (making sure to move the Save As dialog so that we can see things like the tabs and other options in Photoshop)?

Trying to save default new document window location.

When you open up a new document (not from a template) it opens up (at least on my computer) in the upper left corner of the screen.
I would -- like -- it to open when I want it to open (bottom middle and smaller window).
What I do in other programs is open up the new document, position and size the window, then save it as a new template and set that template as the default document when opening a new document.
It isn't saving the window position. Any ideas?

After all the complaining many of us did about Pages 1 & 2 tiling new documents, they now open in the upper left if there are no other documents open. I agree, that when you set up a template, you expect new documents from it to open exactly as you saved the template. You need to leave feedback for the Pages team as ask for this. I ask not only for window position, but also window size. Every template of mine open to just one page even though most of mine are more than one page.

Why is preview asking me for an owner password when I want to save a PDF document to my computer?

Every time I have a PDF document opened in preview and want to save it to my computer I'm asked for an owner password. However, my computer password does not work. These are not documents sent from some crazy source...I've sent them to myself from an online contract site for my business. I'm so frustrated!! Please help!
Thanks!

You shold post exactly what the message is.
It is possible that the documents are protected against modification. Open one of the documents in Preview, Tools > Show Inspector (if it's not already displayed). In the Inspector window, go to the Encryption tab. What does it say under Permissions?

Don't want column width in new document window

Suddenly, and I can't determine why, my InDesign CS2 has started putting column width as an option in the New Document window. It didn't used to do that. I don't want that to be there. Anyone have any suggestions?

You must have some sort of plugin installed from a third party

Prompting to save as new document when trying to save over existing document

I'm hoping someone here can help me. I'm having a problem with saving changes to PDFs. If, for example, I sign or insert pages into a PDF and attempt to save those changes (mind you these are documents which I have already created and saved locally), I receive a warning that the document name is taken (which of course it is because I am trying to save changes to an existing document) and that I must select a new one in order to save. Essentially, I am being forced to Save As when all I want to do is Save. Does anyone have any idea why thsi might be happening?

Thank you very much for your responses. The final post on the forum at the link you provided explains the issue. It appears to be some sort of conflict with the Windows Explorer document previewer that is causing this. Whenever I am previewing the document I am working with in the Explorer, I cannot save changes. As soon as I preview a different document, the changes can be saved without any problems. In the interest of providing further information so that a more permanent solution can be found, I am running Windows 7 and have had this problem with Acrobat 9 and X. Files are being saved locally. Unfortunately, I do not have the savvy to tell you what kind of server.
