How do I change HOW downloads are saved

I do not want download to be saved as Firefox Adobe pdf. How do I change that?

Is it this issue:
Some users are finding that an update changed the description of "Adobe Acrobat Document" to "Firefox HTML Document". The installer was supposed to add Firefox as an ADDITIONAL viewer for PDFs, not as the DEFAULT viewer. Sorry if you were affected by this glitch and hopefully they will figure out why some systems get changed this way.
You can try this fix suggested by a user in another thread:
# Open Adobe Reader / Acrobat*
# Edit->Preferences
# In the Categories column click 'General'
# Near the bottom of the page click the button marked 'Select Default PDF Handler'
# In the dialog, select 'Adobe Reader XI' (or Adobe Acrobat, as the case may be) and click 'Apply'
# A Windows Configuration screen will appear. Allow it to do its stuff (takes a few minutes), then restart your computer when prompted.
Does that work for you?
''*'' If you do not have Adobe Reader 11, you can install it from here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/

  • Any way to change where Drafts are saved?

    Hi guys,
    Does anyone know if there is a way in contribute to change
    where draft pages are saved too (like in Dreamweaver by changing
    the local folder)?
    I really want to save drafts to a shared drive if all
    possible.
    Thanks
    Ryan

    I don't think so, never tried it, but maybe you should start

  • How do I change the default drive downloads are saved to?

    because my c SSD is full

    '''You can check these in about:config entries documentation'''
    *browser.download.dir user set C:\download_win7
    *browser.download.downloadDir user set C:\download_win7
    *browser.download.lastDir user set C:\download_win7
    Move your cache to out your profile, so you don't backup as part of profile
    *browser.cache.disk.parent_directory user set string c:\\temporary\\Firefox-Four_cache
    You might also clear cache with at end of each session to speed things up.

  • How videos are saved to my PC....

    I have a PC running Windows 7.  I guess it's easy enough to plug my iphone into my computer and save my pics/videos.  The one problem I have is that any new pic or video gets saved in the same folder or file as each other.  I was hoping there was a way to separate the 2.  I also have a Flip video camera.  Whenever I plug that in to my computer it gives me the option of saving them to "My Videos",which is where I'd like all of my videos to be stored and accessed .  The same thing with my Fuji camera, if I have taken a video with that it separates the videos and pics.  All new iphone pictures and videos get saved into the same folder in "My Pictures".  If I don't remember to move the iphone videos to "My Videos" at some point I'm going to forget where it is among the 100's of pic folders I have. 
    Anyone understand my question and have any sort of tip/answer?

    Whatever you are using for the import or transfer on your computer determines this. Apple doesn't provide import software for photos/videos in the Camera Roll - not for Windows.

  • Change where documents are saved

    Acrobat X saves documents automatically to my own user directory and will not allow me to save them to "Public" folders - says that isn't authorized. I want them to be saved directly to "Public" folders without having to move the file after it's saved. How do I change this?
    Powell 10

    All my software installs with User: Jackie on the C Drive as the
    administrator, and where files are usually stored by default. But I work in
    the User: Public\My Documents folder because my husband and I share files
    via our home network. So, when I convert a web page to Acrobat, for
    example, the file goes to User:Jackie. When I try to change the location to
    User:Public\My Documents, it says I don't have permission to save to this
    file and would I want to save it to User:Jackie instead. Which I do. And
    then I move it to Public\My Documents. A hassle.
    With Microsoft Office, you can indicate your preferences for which is the
    default folder is for various types of files. Is there something like that
    with Acrobat?
    Thanks for you quick response.

  • The backup files for my devices are saved to my internal hard drive. I have a small internal hard drive and would like them to be saved to an external drive. How can I change where iTunes automatically backs up to?

    The backup files for my devices are saved to my internal hard drive. I have a small internal hard drive and would like them to be saved to an external drive. How can I change where iTunes automatically backs up to?

    This has nothing to do with iTunes as iTunes provides no way to move or relocate the backup files.
    A search of google or the fourms would reveal ways to create a folder link to relocate the physical location where the files are stored.

    when i add a new contact to my phone, their details are saved in my contact list, but the name doesn't show up when they ring or txt me, how can i change that?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

    Take a look at the bottom left hand corner. There should be an option to change location/language. I'm in Norway, and switch between Norwegian and US versions of the site this way.
    For anything involving sign-up and payment, however, you may be redirected, I don't know.

    Hey, Jeff...
    I don't know how I could have made my question any more clear -- so let me try approaching it the other way around, and refer back to your answer(s).
    You've been responding by saying that it's okay for me to remove the Creative Cloud versions of my software, but I don't have any Creative Cloud versions installed! I'm not talking about that at all, I'm talking about the software for Creative Cloud itself -- I don't use it, I don't need it, I don't want it, and all it does is nag me, telling me that there's updates for it (Creative Cloud). I have the full Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard bought and paid for, I have no reason nor need to "rent" any later versions, I'm just talking about the Creative Cloud software itself that got installed on my system when I installed that suite of programs.
    Like I said, I don't use Creative Cloud at all -- all it does is "nag" me, and eat up space on my hard drive. When I go in my Windows Control Panel and look at my list of installed programs, there it is -- "Adobe Creative Suite" -- and it's listed separately from "Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard" (of which I've only installed Photoshop, Acrobat and InDesign, basically, as those are the only programs I use at all at the moment). Can I just uninstall "Adobe Creative Suite" without it affecting "Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard", i.e. my Photoshop, etc. will still work just fine, and I can still get updates and stuff? And by "updates" I don't mean get later versions of Photoshop, etc., I just mean any possible updates to the software that I do already have (that comes with Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard).
    I hope that makes my question a little more clear?

    How can I create a slideshow that depicts only a version of a photo rather than the original?   Since the original and new versions are saved together, the aperture slideshow often choices the original rather than the desired version to display.

    There are two things we use the name "Slideshow" for in Aperture:  a Slideshow Album, used for making Slideshows, and the Slideshow that is made.  (Imho, it is a design mistake to not call the containers used to create Slideshows, Books, etc., "Albums".)
    The Slideshow will use the Album Pick from any Stack.  A good way to use Aperture is to promote the Image you want to regularly use (such as, for example, a Version with adjustments) to the top of the Stack.  This makes it the Stack Pick, and will be the default Album Pick.  If you haven't done that, you can still change the Album Pick for any Stack in a Slideshow Album.  Expand your Stack(s), select the Image in each Stack that you want to be the Album Pick (and thus shown in the Slideshow), and "Stacks➞Set Album Pick".  (Note the keyboard shortcut; there is also a Toolbar icon for this.)  The change is immediate.  The Slideshow will always show the Album Pick (or, if there is not one, the Stack Pick) for every Stack in your Slideshow Album.

  • How InDesign comes to know about any changes on document, but not saved. As it shows * on the name of document when it is opened and any changes. And after saving * symbol is get removed from the name of document. How and where indesign@ handles this?

    Are you just asking because you want to know, or do you have a problem you need to solve? I don't know how to write a program, but I think what your are describing is not an unusual thing for a  program to do. The * tells you that changes have been made since the last save, and the program reserves a portion of memory for undo functions. I suppose a coder could tell you how it works, but I don't think it would help an average user to know, but that's just my opinion.

  • How to hide Saved Searches in the header area of web ui

    Hi All,
    My Query Is how to hide Saved Searches in the header area of web ui.
    For This is there any configuration or we have do through the code.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Venkat

    Another approach:
    Open view CRM_WORKAREAHDR/WorkAreaHeader and change the configuration. There is a button in the bar named "Attributes" (probably hidden under MORE).
    Once in there in edit mode substitute the content of attribute "UI_COMPONENT_3". It should be
    Window=CRM_ALLSEARCHES.CRM_ALLSEARCHES/LauncherWindow;horizontalAlignment=right;
    put there a
    Width=0px;
    The other way using business role is fine as well.
