Files wont save

Hi all I am having trouble saving files after creating them in keynote. This happens whether or not I am saving to the server(windows) or just to the local hard drive. I get error messages that say file cannot be saved or backup of file cant be saved but it puts a file where I ask it to anyway, then when I go to open it it tell me the file is damaged. It doesn't happen all the time.
Any ideas on what is happening
- Mr. D

I am on the current versions of both Keynote and Mac OS 10, and still having problems. I cant save it to the desktop or a networked windows folder. I am also having problems with the Pages doing something similar with images. It will save the image but give me an error message when inserting it into a document. It say that the file is damaged or corrupt. Originally i thought this was because I was going to a windows networked folder, but i tried copy and paste from the internet, desktop and a drag and drop and I still get these errors.

  • Muse file wont save without crashing muse

    Files created within 2014.2 will now not save when opened in 2014.3..which is pretty frustrating. Muse files all on local hard-drive etc. Have had several variations of this error but the pic enclosed seems to be the most common. So as things stand Muse is unworkable.Any ideas??

    Please send us the .muse file at [email protected] along with a link to this thread. If the file is larger than 20Mb you can use a service like Adobe SendNow, Dropbox, WeTransfer, etc. (If you use a service, please include your return e-mail address in the body of the message, since not all services include it in the sharing invite they send.)
    A Save As using 2014.2 would report a similar error. (For 2014.2 and earlier, Save As includes running a diagnostic check of the file. A simple Save did not run this check, because the check was very slow. 2014.3 and later include a file format change that enables a similar check to be run in a fraction of the time and now it's run before both Save As and Save.) Sorry for the inconvenience, but the file requires investigation and repair.
    FWIW, we found and fixed a couple bugs that could result in this type of damage within a file as part of the efforts for 2014.3. However, given the error could linger within a file for some time and be altered by subsequent user actions we do not have a 100% safe way to automate the repair, thus we're available to manually repair any such files. We've also made a significantly file format change for 2014.3 that enables Muse to detect the type of problem that would result in these errors and prevent them from being saved into a file.

  • IPhoto 08, Raw files wont save as Tiff

    I have set my preferences to save Raw files as tiff's after editing, however it will only save as jpeg, anyone have any ideas whats causing the problem

    Start with the basics: try each of these in turn:
    1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
    2. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the home / library / preferences folder. You'll need to reset your User options afterwards.
    3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

  • EPS files wont save? Ai files, no problem!

    I am using CS6 and have had this problem for while. The strange thing is it is now happening on TWO computers? Different specs, but my computer is:
    Model Name:          iMac
      Model Identifier:          iMac13,2
      Processor Name:          Intel Core i7
      Processor Speed:          3.4 GHz
      Number of Processors:          1
      Total Number of Cores:          4
      L2 Cache (per Core):          256 KB
      L3 Cache:          8 MB
      Memory:          16 GB
      Boot ROM Version:          IM131.010A.B05
    so it is not a spec issue.
    I have tried saving basic EPS files with NO content at all to the desktop (I am not working to/from server). They work fine. But if I add 3, 4, 5 basic outline rectangle shapes, it struggles to save the EPS. It spins for about 10 seconds and then comes good. If I add objects to the files, it takes longer.
    BUT!!! On very rare occasions it will save basic files quickly. WHY OH WHY WOULD IT DO THAT!!!
    I have: updated all software and IOS is upto date. I have had a clean install of the OS, and recently unistalled one version of Illustrator CS6 and installed another version (original version was 16.7 the new version is 16).
    I have searched forums and come up blanks. The other CS6 apps are fine. Speedy and top draw. No problems.
    Can anyone help? I am really struggling with this and it is affecting my work load.
    Please note, I have taken the other computer back to the Apple dealer, they have checked it and said there is no problem? Run all the software ETC... and nothing is showing up as a culprit. I keep thinking it is software rather than computer because EVERYTHING else is perfect.

    Do you face the same problem, when you print those file to "Adobe Postscript File" printer?
    Please try deleting all the printers in your system, try save EPS, install back all the printers and try once again saving EPS.

  • Illustrator CS4 wont save files, please help?

    You can edit a file, go to save, close it down, then when you re-open it the changes made have not been saved?? No error message or warning pops up, and it all looks ok like it has saved properly, until you open it up again. This also happens when you use 'save as' command if you use the original file name. If however you type in a different file name - it saves ok. But obviously that is not great as you cant now trust or rely on the save mechanism of the programme, to make sure any changes to artwork have been stored!! I have never seen an issue like this, it is worrying, I hope somebody can help?
    Thanks.
    We are running CS4 on windows7 - yes PC!!!

    We save in EPS, and its not just one file, its a variety of different files and it seems to be random as to which files it does it on, some work fine - some don't. And it can be anything from a minor text change to a colour change, it doesnt seem to matter on the change made, it reacts the same.
    The files are saved over a network connection to a large external hard drive.
    Its really puzzling and now starting to cause problems as we do a fair bit of work in it, and can't trust one of the most important features, and that any changes that have been done have been saved and stored!
    Hope maybe you can help with any thoughts at all.
    Cheers.

    What file format do you save it in?
    What kinds of changes did you make in that file?
    Where do you save the file (removable or network media)?

  • Help!!! Flash CS3 and CS4 wont save .gifs

    Ok, so im trying to save my project as a .gif and it just wont save it right, it marks as if it has already been saved, but when i open the .gif it just displays the first frame.......any help? Am i doing something wrong???? the actual file that im saving is a small animation, with 1 sec of animation, 10 frames, and its appx. 100 x 100 pixels I thought it was the size, but it was not. Any help plz?????
    Note, it does saves it right in .swf  but not on .gif

    Those links, did helped me, but that didnt correct the problems that i was getting.
    Here is the thing, at least this is how it worked for me.
    I was editing the original picture on fireworks, and saw that instead of layers, it was creating bitmap images, saved it as fireworks pdn and imported to flash, and when i finish it didnt save the gif.
    I instead opened the original on photoshop, and it created layers instead bitmap, saved it as a photoshop image, opened it on flash, worked on it, and well, guess what??? it did saved it as a gif!!!!!
    So wierd, but, why won't it save it from the fireworks one into a gif, and the photoshop one worked good? 
    It didnt helped me alot mate, but i still thank you for reading this post bro, thanks, and have a nice day ^_^

  • Image wont save as it looks in photoshop.

    I'm a pretty amateur user of photoshop, but I've been having this problem with an image I'm working on; it wont save as it looks in photoshop.
    Basically, this is what I'm looking at when the psd file is open in Photoshop:
    This is how I would like the image to look when I save it. However, when I save it as a JPEG (or any other format for that matter) it looks like this:
    The saved image is a JPEG file with a resolution of 500x500, the image I'm working with in photoshop has an image size of 7000x7000. Also, the image seems to produce different results when saved at different resolutions. It's very confusing.
    Here is my layers also:
    I am also using a Halftone filter set to subtract on this image, giving the image the lines across the image (shown here as layer 1).
    Anyone have any idea why this is happening and/or what I'm doing wrong?

    There's no reason an image should be downsampled upon saving (from 7000 to 500 pixels), unless you specifically tell it to using the Image Size dialog. The only exception I can think of is if you use Save For Web, which has a number of default settings you should keep an eye on. But a 7000 pixel image has no business on the web anyway (that's w a y too big).
    Resampling will obviously affect an image like this (with the line screen) in a number of ways. You should only work on this at the final intended pixel size.

  • Settings changed wont save after reboot

    Any changes that i do in my Mac, wont save after reboot.
    If i change the settings on my mouse (unchecking Scroll direction) next time i reboot, it will be checked again.
    Any changes that i do to my Finder sidebar (like adding My Main Drive not visible, add downloads and pictures, change the foler view as columns) they are all gone after i reboot. Its getting freakin anoying. I Google for a solution but to find none.
    When trying to opening Calender, it says that i dont have permission. I have gone to the application and checked and made sure that all acounts have r/w permissions.
    On the Dock, i uninstalled an app and next reboot i will get a question mark, even tho i removed it before it comes back after the reboot.
    Thanks for listening.

    May sound silly, but are you sure you're not logging in as the 'Guest' user? What privileges does the user account you're using have? Check in
     > System Preferences... Users & Groups
    that the account you're using is Admin. If you're using a Standard account, are parental controls enabled?
    If you are admin, try resetting your permissions and removing the sys pref property file. Before you do that, backup your system and user data. Once you're backed up, open Terminal and copy/paste the following into the Terminal window:
    rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    hit 'return'. If the prompt returns without an error (as it should), paste this
    sudo chown -R `id -un` ~
    hit 'return'. Enter your password as requested, but type carefully as it will be invisible while you do.
    This will take a while, but after the command finishes (i.e., when the prompt returns), restart the mac.
    After the restart, set the mac up the way you want, then test whether the problem is fixed by restarting again to see if your changes were kept.

  • Ipod wont save music

    Tried to add additional music to Ipod Touch but something went wrong and I had to restore it.  Once I restored the IPod wont save any music.  It goes through the syncing stage and when its finished the music file is empty.  Is there any way of fixing this?

    I would recomend trying to restore again, but don't do ANYTHING until it's done (both on you computer and on your iPod).
    When it's done restroing, try playing some songs from within iTunes. Do they play? If yes, try syncing again. And don't touch anything. If the songs in iTunes don't play, you know that the song files in iTunes itself are corrupted, and you might want to re-import or re download. Then try syncing again.
