Files not saving properly; File write vi stops program every 10 minutes

Trying to run current scan program; Data won't write automatically to file. I have to enter return at prompt to keep program running!

How are you writing your files? Are you using the Write LVM Express VI or some of the file I/O vis? This information will help alot.
You have to hit return if you have a dialog showing. You can create and write to files with any of the various functions without going through a dialog. Usually this is done by either placing the dialog in a case and only running it on the initial run of your loop, or by placing it outside of your loop so it runs only once before you start looping.
If you are using the Write LVM Express VI, you can set it to only prompt once. Then it remembers the path on subsequent iterations.
But, you need to give a little more information and maybe a sample VI to get a more specific answer.
Hope that this helps,
Bob

  • Keynote (and other iWork apps) not saving properly!

    Hi all
    I have had some strange problems over the last few weeks where I get messages telling me that iWork (usually Numbers) cannot save the files as 'something else' is using the file.  So I click 'save anyway' and I get strange files in folders, ie folder and file name is the original name plus some gooblygook.
    I have got round this by deleting the 'extras' and carrying on.  But now I am preparing a major presentation in Keynote and suddenly it is not saving graphics some of the time!
    For example I was working on a slide - and suddenly got a message that 'some problems occured' -
    Couldn’t save image. - image.png (Slides: 12, 13, 17, 18; Skipped slide count: 1)
    Couldn’t save image. - image.png (Slides: 12, 13, 17, 18; Skipped slide count: 1)
    I have been working with this presentation for some time and have never encountered any problems - passing between my laptop and my iPad to review and modify (mainly viewing on the iPad and editing on the MacBook).
    Any ideas what is happening?  I have a major presentation to give in just over a week and I don't want to use PowerPoint!
    Thanks

    I've been having some success NOT using any files that have previous images or audio in them, starting from a base template and then adding audio and video and photos that are already on my hard drive, not previous Keynote files. Today I needed five slides that were part of another deck and, you guessed it, they were corrupted (or missing) when I reopened the file, only the thumbnails remaining.
    I closed the original Keynote file, placed a zip extension, then control- clicked to see the contents. The images were missing from the package. I then replaced the extension with .key and reopened in Keynote. The audio file had been there but not the images or the drawing, which I then searched for.
    Yes, delete the weird file backups and make a backup of the original in the finder. Then lock it! (You're using Mountain Lion?)
    I have a huge presentation tomorrow. I have five backups, including on a thumb drive.
    How much longer Apple?

  • Voice memos app not saving properly

    I am using an iphone5 running iOS7.1.1 and performing the following actions will cause Voice Memos app not saving recordings. I have sent a feedback to Apple but is wondering if anyone else is found having similar problems.
    1) Run Voice memos app and start recording
    2) At lock screen open camera app and take a picture
    3) At same lock screen delete the picture taken
    4) Lock screen will show RECORDING in progress
    5) Open Voice memos app and it will also show RECORDING in progress
    6) Save voice memo from app and the duration FROM the point of picture deleted WILL NOT be saved

    same here ... iPhone 3gs/32 gigs ram/ios 4.3.1 ...
    the app doesn't seem to work any more, and hasn't for some time:
    "buttons" are unresponsive, or they appear to respond, but don't perform their function ... erratic behavior ...
    very disappointing as this has gone on for some time ...
    We appear not to be the only ones ...
    Anyone with a solution?
    Thanks

  • Robohelp 9 stops responding every 20 minutes

    Hello,
    My company recently upgraded from RoboHelp X3 to RoboHelp 9. On one writer's machine, RoboHelp is crashing every 20 minutes or so. Here are the specs:
    Windows 7
    Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T9300 @ 2.50 Ghz
    4 GB RAM
    64-bit operating system
    232 GB hard drive with 176 GB of free space
    The project the writer is working on has been upgraded from an X3 project with the old .mpj file extension. Microsoft's Event Log reports that the file shortcut.oxc is causing RoboHelp to stop interacting with Windows. Here's a screenshot from the MS Windows Action Center.
    FWIW, another writer on an XP machine is not running into any crashing issues. Both writers are working on local copies of the same upgraded project.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
        just to update the new patch 9.0.1 does not have anything which could cause this crash if properly installed. Please go ahead and update RoboHelp on the XP machine (it will confirm if this is creating an issue).
    One info needed here is that were you guys using the .chm output and if yes are you having HTML Help controls in the project (these are the one which uses the shortcut.ocx file) so this can be the issue so try to remove them in a copy of the project and see if it helps.
    Can you please share the crash dump of RoboHelp when it crashes in Win 7 (In Win 7 on any application crash you can open the Task manager and RightClick on the process which crashed and created Dump File) and mail it to me  - [email protected]
    One more thing that can be tried is to install RoboHelp on any other Win 7 64 bit machine and see if it is not a machine specific issue.
    Hope this helps

  • How do I get itunes to stop loading every few minutes on my computer? I X out of it and it comes r ight back.

    How do I get itunes to stop loading every time I turn on my computer? I X out  of it and it comes right back. I have tried everything, even had a computer expert try, no luck. I tried uninstalling itunes and tried a new download, it came right back. Very annoying. Help!

    Hello all,
    I am not in front of my computer but I will try to be clearer::
    plug your iphone or iPad with the USB cable in the computer
    it launches iTunes or  you launch iTunes directly.
    in the left colum , in the middle your equipemnt appears
    click on it
    the middle space will change and you will see horizontal tabs named home, ??, app, music, and so on
    click on the first tab and check all the space:: at the end, if I remeber well there is a check mark for manual sync
    or it is on the secon tab where you choose to sync mail accounts, notes etc... at the end the checkmark "manual sync" should be checked hence itunes will not sync by itself but only if you ask for it

  • Illustrator CS6 files not saving properly as PDFs??

    Prior to printing my work, I save PDF versions of my files.  More often than I'd like, when I print the PDF file from my computer, some of the graphics do not print correctly.  For example, a portion of a curved graphic (like a swirl) might be cut off leaving a blunt straight edge.
    Does anyone else have issues with PDF files?  Is there anything I can do to control this quality issue?
    Thank you.

    I had a similar issue, where a file saved in Illustrator looked incomplete when it opened in Preview (a colour logo was rendering in black only).
    As far as I'm concerned, the point of a PDF is that it can be seen/read universally, so this is a fail, and opening it in a different program is no fix.
    My workaround was to select and copy all the graphics in my Illustrator document, then open Photoshop and paste to a new document as a smart image. I then double clicked the smart image logo in the layers to edit it in Illustrator, from where I saved it as a PDF. For whatever reason this saved the PDF correctly.
    Hope that helps somebody with the same issue in the future.

  • PSE7 Organizer does not start properly, screen flashes, PC stops

    Hello. I can't find this problem mentioned on the forum.
    I've used PSE4 and 5 in the past without problems. Have just completed a clean install of PSE7 (no PS or PSE previously installed on this system, a ThinkPad T60 with 2MB). The Editor runs fine.
    I ran the Organizer once, set some preferences, pointed it at a small number of images to import, then the whole screen started flashing and soon my system stopped in its tracks - no blue screen.
    Now, when I try and start the Organizer, it spends maybe half a minute "Generating thumbnails" without success (all the thumbnails have egg timers on them). It uses 50% CPU. It still says "Generating thumbnails" after half a minute or so when the screen starts flashing and the system crashes again.
    Any ideas?

    Fixed. Thank you John.
    I renamed the preferences file but that made no difference.
    So I repaired the catalog (errors were found) and optimized it. When I started the Organizer, thumbnails were displayed (that's progress) but then the screen-flashing started again (whole screen, as usual, not just the Organizer window). Before I could close the Organizer, my system stopped with a blank, black screen, and no response to any input. I had to hold the power button to power down. On reboot, it blue-screened. On next reboot it started normally.
    So I created a new catalog and the Organizer started fine. Then I set it off getting photos from a folder of folders of jpegs (with the odd txt and other file type). After a few seconds, the screen-flashing started again, and I quickly closed the Organizer.
    When I restarted it, the catalog was empty, so I had it get just one folder of photos at a time. On the very last one, the problem started again. I found an AVI file that I'd overlooked, removed it, and the problem went away. The AVI was one I recorded on a digital compact.
    The Help for Organizer says:
    "The Organizer catalogs video AVI files properly, but audio AVI files are shown as broken video thumbnail icons. However, they will play correctly."
    Hmmm...doesn't seem to be the case for me. Even if AVIs were unsupported or known to cause problems, I would never expect to see the symptoms I did.
    Hopefully my experience will help others. Incidentally, I run XP Pro SP3, fully updated.

  • Purchases not saving properly, then being deleted!

    Sorry for the long post, but I figured the more info the better...
    I am storing my music on an external hard drive. I have my advanced settings set to 'Keep iTunes folder organised" and "To copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library". When I finish downloading a song, it says it is complete but when I check the 'Info' for the downloaded song it ends up in the downloads folder of itunes as a .tmp file, not in the proper place.
    For example, tonight I downloaded Centennial by Tokyo Police Club. It appeared to have downloaded correctly and processed, yet the pathway for the song is as follows:
    K:\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Downloads\Centennial_Elephant Shell (Bonus T.tmp\download.m4a
    According to the way I have iTunes setup it should end up in the folder:
    K:\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Tokyo Police Club\Elephant Shell (Bonus Track Version)\01....etc
    The above folder is actually created on my external hard drive, but it is empty.
    In the folder K:\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Downloads\Centennial _Elephant Shell (Bonus T.tmp there are two files:
    Download m4a which is 4181 kb and Info (a Quick Time preference file) which is 2kb
    When I sync my iPhone or iPod, I am able to get the track onto the device, however at some point, the download folder deletes the m4a file and then the link in iTunes shows up as a "!" and the file is no longer anywhere on my hard drive. AS it is an external drive, nothing gets sent to the recycle bin...it just gets permenantly deleted.
    I have been able to restore my purchases from my iPhone by transferring back purchased items after deleting the links off of iTunes before syncing my device, but this is a totally inconvenient solution, and it is only a matter of time before I lose purchases.
    Also, I am never prompted to backup my purchases like I was in the past and I am running the most updated version of iTunes. Anyone ever seen something like this before???
    PS: There is nothing wrong with the hard drive, i've run a diagnostic on it and even switched drives...still the same. Aaaargh!

    Perhaps. It seems iTunes can create the new artist folder. Your first post said it shows up, but is blank. But then it can't write the final file to that folder.
    Were you trying to take ownership of the root K: drive?
    Try taking ownership of K:\Music and all its subfolders, instead - does that work?
    This isn't an easy one. You might have to use MSCONFIG to find out why itunes can't finish its filing tasks.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1275
    edit - do you have V CST from Verizon? There is a memonitor.exe process from Verizon that is known to interfere with itunes saving the final file.

  • Not Saving Properly

    I've noticed that when using Save As to rename a file after making changes in the original file, the changes are not actually saved in GB 3.0.4. So, I've tried Save As, then a plain Save for the new file. Still the changes are not registered by the computer, although the changes are evident on the track in GB. If I try to add the supposedly new file to the audio track in Keynote, the old file without the new changes is inserted. The only way to get the changes to register computer wide is to perform a Save As with the new file name, quit GarageBand, reopen the file, then do a Save. Then and only then will Keynote see the desired file with all the changes. Can anyone else confirm this? I've tried deleting GB prefs to no avail. I do have create preview checked in GB Preferences. This is a very unusual and frustrating problem.
      Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Yo hangtime, I've now heard from your Keynote equivalent guru, and he thinks you've found the best workaround out there. His guess, like yours and mine is that the GB preview file is not being updated properly, or that keynote is not accessing the properly updated preview file. Either way, your workaround works. Of course, sharing the file from GB to iTunes also works without all the extra steps. So for now I'll assume there is no straightforward, easy way to go about it. Maybe in the future. Thanks again.

  • Text not saving properly in Acrobat Pro XI

    I use Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. When I use the add text function, everything shows up correctly. I save the file and close it. Later on, when I open the saved file, some of the text (especially capital letters and symbols) show up as little boxes with an X in them. I have to highlight, cut, and paste everything in order for the text to show back up. Once it happens one time, it usually does not happen again. However, if I open up a document, fix the boxes, add additional notes, those notes then turn into boxed Xs the next time I open the document.
    How do I fix this?

    Hi rdh2209,
    Is Acrobat 11 updated to the latest patch v11.0.09?
    Does this happen with any specific font?
    Try repairing Acrobat and check if it resolves the problem.

  • Photoshop CC Not saving properly

    Ok, I have tested this with a few different computers that all have the latest update of Photoshop CC and they all do it... When you have a photo open and you go to Save As, if you hit enter (which should save it), the dialog box drops you into a subfolder if you have subfolders, and then hitting enter again saves it in the subfolder, which if you dont catch this, could lead to files being saved where it's not supposed to be saved to.  You have to physically click "save".  please help fix this bug. 

    What operating system are you using?
    It's not working the way you describe for me on Windows 8.1.  When I choose File - Save (or Save As), then just hit Enter, the file saves in the folder that was selected by default.
