How do I save files in the dock?

In Preview, I'm reviewing and going back and forth between PDFs and some jpegs. When there are several I don't need at the moment, I sometimes minimize them to the dock. Is there a way to take all the minimized documents and simply save them to a new folder (maybe on the desktop)?
I thought there should be an easy way to do this...
Thank you.

No; minimized icons in the Dock are shortcuts and not actual files, and therefore can't be put into a folder.

    First of all, are you using the OS native screen capture?
    If not, make sure the application you're using has been update for Lion.  I was using Snapz Pro for years, but I need to update it for use with Lion. Meanwhile Grab and the keyboard shortcuts are working on my Lion load.
    If you are using the native capture mode unsuccessfully, I would run the Disk Utility and repair permissions on the drive. For some reason, even in past OS Versions, routine maintenance of permissions makes life a lot easier.

  • How do I save files to external hard drive in anticipation of a OS clean install?

    How do I save files to an external hard drive in anticipation of a OS clean install?  I'm worried that the new OS will not be able to find my photos.
    My data have not been backed up for 2 months, and the OS is corrupted.  Currently working with a senior Apple engineer on this.  It looks like a clean install will be necessary.
    This question will also extend iTunes :/

  • How do I save songs in the Automatically Add to iTunes folder

    How do I save songs in the Automatically Add to iTunes folder?  Is this done via settings somehow?
    Stated another way......songs recently added to my music folders in the iTunes libary are not updated in the media library automatically.  How do I save songs in the Automatically Add to iTunes folder?
    Still another way......I'm trying to backup songs in my iTunes library by dragging them into a flash drive.  But I noticed that not all songs are included in the iTunes Media folder from which I am making my backup file.  Is there a better way to do a backup?  If not, how do I get the iTunes Media file updated to include all songs in my iTunes library?

  • How do i save files from mac pro to an external hard drive

    how do i save files from mac pro to an external hard drive

    Your external drive is formatted NTFS which OS X can read from but not write to. You can either install third-party software on the Mac to enable writing to the drive or repartition and reformat the drive for exclusive use with the Mac. If you don't need to move files between a Mac and a PC, then I would recommend the latter solution.
    Tuxera NTFS 2012.3.2
    NTFS for Mac OS X 9.5.3
    To repartition:
    Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select the external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.

    how do I save files before resetting computer

    Get an external drive and clone your internal drive to it, you can use Disk Utility, Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper to achieve this.
    The external drive should be the same size or larger than your internal.

  • HELP - how do you save pictures through the recovery mode?

    How do you save pictures through the recovery mode.  I have the black screen with cursor and despite trying all the tips noted here nothing seems to fix the issue.  These have included using Utility disk to re-install OS-X, repairing the disks.  Also tried the holding shift on start up and entering username and password.  Also tried internet recovery and then repair and re-install.  Nothing works!
    Happy to restore from a back up, but I have been rubbish and not backed up for a long time.  Also happy to delete and re-install completely but don't want to loose pics.
    Please let me know any suggestions!!

    That requires that you can boot the MBP. 
    Or to boot the mac using the time machine back up?
    You can try using startup manager:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1310
    But you still need a working volume where you can install the backed up data.
    The good news is that since you have a Time machine backup, you can transfer that data to another Mac or clone:

  • Can I safely save files to the external harddrive I am using as/for a Time Machine?

    Can I safely save files to the external harddrive I am using as/for a Time Machine?

    Because ALL Hard Drives fail. They have been since they were invented. It is just a fact of Spinning hard drives.
    No nothing special about how TM writes to the drive.
    Any hard drive can fail at any time. The day you take it out of the box and plug it in to 10+ years later or anytime in between. Kind of like Life. At some point it ends for everyone. Some sooner some much later.
    I've had some work for years, like 7++ running 24/7. Others have died in months to a few years. I've had externals died faster then internal drive and the funny part is an external drive is nothing but the same type drive used Inside a computer, an Internal drive, put into an External case. But most of the time when an external dies it is not the drive itself but the Enclosures Electronic that fail. Removing the physical drive from the enclosure and using a SATA, or IDE, to USB Adapter the drives are usually still good. I've even taken dead externals and removed the drive and put that drive inside a computer case and they work for X number of years. But that doesn't mean that All Drives are like that.
