CS5 indd files occasionally change after saving and reopening

Occasionally the contents of my InDesign document will change after saving and re-opening. No errors reported during the save however when the file is opened a text box may be out of place or leading may be messed-up on a few random pages or some of the recent changes may not have been saved. Any ideas?

There was no direct indication that you created the code in a standard module. I asked because you reported that the code works in the sample workbook that you downloaded but not in your own workbook.
I don't know what else to suggest at the moment.
Could you create a stripped-down copy of the workbook (without sensitive information) and make it available through one of the websites that let you upload and share a file, such as Windows Live SkyDrive (https://skydrive.live.com),
FileDropper (http://filedropper.com) or DropBox (http://www.dropbox.com). Then post a link to the uploaded and shared file here.
Or register at www.eileenslounge.com (it's free) and post a message in the Excel forum. You can attach files up to 250 KB to a post there (zipped if necessary).

Image disappears in the RH after saving and reopening the report

Hi,
I am using CR2008.
I have created several reports with images but didn't get this type of problem.
I inserted image in the Report header and everything is fine, after save and exit if I reopen the report there is no image. It disappeared. I tried all possible ways with bmp, jpg formats of image and re-size the image. Still same problem. There is a blank OLE Object in the Report header when I reopen it. Is there any solution for this issue?
Thanks!

Hi
Thanks for the reply. My problem is solved. The image file is too big in size and I resized it in crystal, that's why it behaved wiered. I reduced the size of the image outdide the crystal report in mspaint and then copied to crystal. It worked.

Image size changes after saving and then reopening

I'm using CS6. For example I change the image size to a 4X6 and then save it. Then when I open the file it will be 7.5X5. What's the fix? Thanks for your time.

I'm using Photoshop CS6 on a Windows 7 - 64 bit system. I'm using the Image Size dialog box and saving the file as a 4X6 at 300 dpi from a psd file to a jpeg file. When I open the file it is 5X7.5 inches at 240 dpi. I've been playing with it and have just figured out that when I save the file as a psd file it stays the size I've created and it changes when I save as a jpeg file. This is change is recent. It's worked properly in the past. Thanks for your help.

Invisible objects made visible revert to their invisible state after saving and opening

I am working in LiveCycle Designer ES2 creating a decision tree that is highlighted in red as you click the Yes and No checkboxes in the document. I duplicated the arrows and made the copies red and then invisible. When the checkbox is checked, the red arrows become visible, when unchecked, invisible. The problem I have encountered is that because the default state of the red arrows is invisible, they do not stay visible if you fill out the form, save it, then open it again. When the saved form is opened, all the correct checkboxes are checked, but all the red has gone back to being invsible. I am creating and saving the pdfs as dynamic XML forms and using them in Acrobat X. It was all done with the action builder (yes, I know, stop using action builder, but I had to teach myself LiveCycle last week to get this far and havn't made it to scripting).
I read through a post with a similar question but it involved a master drop down list not checkboxes, and I did not see how I could apply the solution in that post to my checkbox issue.
Any thoughts on how to get the red lines to stay visible when saved and reopened?

Hi,
check your form properties.
You need to activate the option to preserve script changes.

I recently had to reinstall my software for a
dell computer a dell latitude d 830, then after installing all of my software and such including itunes the player did well even record to disks with no problems now that my system has done alot of updating of system files....now the itunes does not burn to my cd...error message 2131 this time
The 2131 usually indicates firmware needs to be updated on a drive.
Head to your drivers and downloads page for your latitude at Dell, and check for updates to your firmware for your optical drives. If you're behind and you update, does that clear up the 2131?

Dynamic form font color changes after saving

I have a dynamic form that before the user clicks inside a textfield ghost text appearance is set to red once the user starts typing I have an event set to turn the font to black.
The problem is, once form is saved and reopened the font color is red instead of black. How can I get the font color to remain black?
I am thinking that script should be in the PreSave event if so, please provide an example of how it should be written.
Thanks

I have several events happening in the text field
for the ghost text (tool tip) I have set an initialize event: (by the way I did choose the color red for the font in the color picker for the tooltip color)
this.execEvent("exit");
this.format.picture.value = "null{' " + this.assist.toolTip.value + " '}";
Enter event: (this changes the font to black and bullets appear)this.fontColor + "0,0,0";
this.font.posture = "normal";
if(this.rawValue === null)
    this.rawValue = "l ";
Exit event
if (this.isNull)
   this.fontColor = "255,0,0,";
   this.fontposture = "italic";

Why does Firefox keep me logged into websites after closing and reopening the browser?

As of today, Firefox has been behaving differently. Namely, when I close Firefox and reopen, I am still logged in to email and other sites. I have all of my privacy settings checked, such as clear history, offline data, form history, etc etc so that they all will be deleted upon closing but this has no effect. Can someone provide insight as to why this is happening and how I can correct it? Before today, after closing and reopening the browser I was required to log in to any sites requiring UN and PW.
I have rechecked all history deletion options to make sure all the appropriate ones were selected. Yesterday, I noticed inbox.com and a program called 24x7 Help were installed on the computer, without my knowledge. I promptly uninstalled them,but I'm not sure if they could somehow be responsible for the odd behavior.

Such a behavior indicates that you keep the cookie(s) that verify that you are logged on to a web server.
Are you using session restore to open those tabs automatically?
* Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
You can set the <b>browser.sessionstore.privacy_level</b> pref to 2 (never) or 1 (non-HTTPS, default in Firefox 3 versions) on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable saving cookies via session restore.
You can change the browser.sessionstore.privacy_level_deferred pref that is used when you do not reopen the previous session automatically via "Show my windows and tabs from last time".

Folder view changes after saving file

After a while, whenever I choose a starting folder in a save dialog, where the folder view is Columns, the folder view changes to that view in Finder as well, but I want it to stay in List view, while brows in the save dialog in Columns view.
How can I make sure, that whichever folder I choose from the save dialog, it's view never changed from List to Columns view, (regardless wether I choose Column view, or it opened already in that view) without changing each and every folder preference individually?

Every time you resave a JPEG, information is lost. How much depends upon the degree of compression - more compression, more loss, smaller file.
A one off save is probably insignifincant. The fact that the file size changes is unsurprising. PSE probably does its compression a bit differently from the camera.

PowerPoint Makes File Read-only After Saving

Hello all,
A couple of end users have encountered the above problem. They make changes to pptx files and after the file saves, the file becomes read only (says so on the program window). If they are not paying attention, then any other changes they make to the file
need to be saved to another file, which needless to say, is very annoying.
They have saved the file, file becomes read-only, then if they close the file and open it back up, it's fine; they can edit and save.
It happens sporadic. Could it be an autosave happening at the same time? Any others experiencing this?
Any help would be appreciated!
JB

Hi
Thank you for using

Resolution does not change after saving.

A previous answer does not help me. I save a file after changing size (inches) and resolution from default of 240ppi to 300ppi, when I reopen the file reverts to the original size. I use a Mac 10.6.8 Photoshop CS5 extended 12.0.4 x64.

If all you change is the document DPI resolution setting all the changes is print resolution and print size. The document size remains un-changed you sill have the same pixels you have before the resize. Only when you resample(interpolate) the number of pixels you have for the images does the the file size change. In fact you have a completely new image not a single old pixel exist all pixels have been interpolated to increase or decrease the number of pixels the image has.

Word file ownership changes after edit/save.

This may be a server issue more than Office, but I've come across some articles relating to this problem in Samba, and thought it might be similar.
I'm the Network Admin for a school district. We have a file server that is setup with a file and folder structure that allows students and teachers to access and share documents. One teacher came to me with a problem. Students are able
to create and save Word documents to an assignment folder. The teacher then goes into the document, makes changes and enters notes, then saves the document back to the folder, overwriting the original. The problem is that once she has done so,
the student can no longer access the document.
After investigation and testing, I've found that ownership of the file is changing from the student to the teacher. This is a problem based on the way that the ACL is set on the folder. The students' access is based in the creator/owner attribute.
The fact that the ownership is changing once the teacher opens and edits the document is causing the student to no longer have access to the file.
My question is, is there a setting or other change that can be made to Office so that ownership is not transferred to the teacher? Giving each user explicit rights to each file and/or folder isn't really an option when I have 3000 students to
deal with. Again, this may be a server side issue, but I've not seen this problem with other programs.

I'm picking this up because I have the exact same problem.
Students are given Write access to a folder (So they can save their work)
Teachers are given Modify acccess to a folder (so they can add comments, etc)
CREATOR/OWNER is given Read/Execute so students could read teacher comments, but not make changes to the document once it has been saved.
When I test it with my admin account, it works great. I can update the document and the student can open it to see my comments, but not change the document anymore without saving to a different location.
When I test it with a teacher account, the document changes ownership as soon as the teacher saves. Once the ownership changes, the student no longer has permissions through CREATOR/OWNER and they can't open the document to see the comments anymore.
I can't see why this works when my account makes the changes, but not when a teacher account does. We are doing the exact same things in Word.
Here is an example of the permsions as they exist on a sample document. In the example, my admin account (which works fine) gets it's permissions through BUILTIN\Administrators:
PS H:\> $acl = get-acl "L:\TeacherShare\S2 3(A) Study Hall - Half Year\Submissions\StudentWork.docx
PS H:\> $acl.access

Artboards disappear after closing and reopening a file

My coworkers and I have been running into an issue when we use documents that have multiple artboards. After we do ouer work, we save and close the file. When we go to reopen the file, all but the first artboard have disappeared. Looking in the Artboard panel, the original artboard counts up after every save.
For example, say I were to create a new file and add a couple artboards. After saving, closing, and reopening the file, the additional artboards would be gone, the artwork on those boards would still be there, and the original artboard would be labeled as "Artboard 2". If I were to add the missing artboards again, the same issue would occur and reopening the file would have the first artboards labeled now as "Artboard 3".
I am using Illustrator CS6 and saving the files as an .ai with the default settings.

Are you saving locally? Over a network? Mac or PC?

Why is same file different sizes after saving for web?

I have files that I save in PSCS3, under, "Save for Web & Devices" and I indicate under "optimize to file size" that they should be no larger than 60K. After item is saved and I go to "Get info", it says the file is 60K. Yet when I open the file in PS and go to Image Size, it says 467K. Why the discrepancy? Thanks for your feedback!

One is the compressed file size on disk (60K). The other is the uncompressed image size (369 pixels x 432 pixels x 8 bits per channel x 3 channels / 8 bits per byte / 1024, since K really is 1024, not 1000).

Database - information lost after saving and closing.

I have a very simple database. Two text fields and a date field. There are 146 records.
Each text field occasionally contains a lot of characters (isn't 255 the max.?)
If a create another record, put in a date and some text in each text field, then save, close, and reopen the file, the new text is missing from the first text field but the date and other text is intact.
I had this problem two weeks ago. As a work-around, I created another matching database from scratch, exported the records from the corrupt file, and then imported to the new file. The new file functioned well until today.
Any ideas?
Greg

No, it's 1004 characters per field.

No idea about this behaviour which I never saw.
May you send the file to my mailbox ?
