How do I stop PS from reverting files saved at 72 dpi to 240 dpi?

I am trying to save a jpeg file as 72 dpi but CS5 keeps reverting it to 240 dpi when I reopen it.  How do I save the file as 72 dpi?

First it does not matter. The ppi value is used for determining the physical print size and therefore may not affect the file size. I say may as photoshop is capable of altering the pixel dimentions if resampling is enabled when resizing the image.
As for both files having different ppi values but same pixel dimentions will tell you that only the physical print size has changed and nothing else. So it could be resonable to say the ppi could be automatically changed by photoshop on import to fit the document even though no pixels were changed.
To see if this is true use save for web it strips the ppi from the metadata and normally will import into photoshop at 72ppi as that is the default value the photoshop uses when it can not find the ppi.

  • How do I stop Firefox from grabbing my saved images and coverting them to Firefox?

    I am working on images in Dreamweaver and Adobe Photoshop, and when I try to save them, Firefox coverts them into Firefox images with a Firefox icon and then I can't edit them properly in Photoshop or Dreamweaver. How do I stop Firefox from grabbing my saved images? in English

    I will try that, but it's pretty time consuming to have to check that for each of my images. I am a web designer and I work with a lot of images.
    Is there any way to set that globally for all of my saved images?

    I'm using Win7 and Thunderbird keeps storing files on my desktop. How do I stop it from doing that?

    It would appear that you have moved your profile, or parts of it.
    In the account settings, look for the setting under ''Server Setting''s named ''Local Directory''. Is this set to your desktop?

  • How do I stop spotlight from indexing files?

    I only have 2GB of RAM and Indexing files really slows down my computer, so much that i can hardly operate the computer. Is there any way that i can stop Spotlight from indexing my files automatically or have it index every week instead of every day?

    It shouldn't be running so much that it slows down the computer. It will run for a while, initially, but after that it should index files on the fly as they are added. I suppose if you dumped a ton of files onto the hard drive, it would spend a while indexing them.
    You might try restarting the index as it might be corrupt. To do so, go to the Privacy tab in Spotlight. Add your hard drive to the list. Wait about 10 seconds, then remove your hard drive. Don't do that while you're working, though.

  • How can I stop Firefox from making files read only?

    Firefox (and not IE or Google Chrome) makes certain files (Movie Magic Screenwriter files, for example) read only. Is there a way to prevent that?

    Let's attempt to fond out what you have installed that added that "noise" to Firefox.
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
    :[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

  • How can I stop Acrobat from reordering files when importing files to create a PDF?

    To all those more knowledgable than I,
    I am converting a larger amount of tiff files into one PDF. The TIFF files are numbered 1-100. When I "add files" in the diaologe window they reorder because Acrobat does not look at the third number so then I have to move up and move down the file names so that they are in a sequential order. Is there a way to have Acrobat not do this?!
    Thank you.

    CreatePDF is a special web page for making PDFs, for people who don't have Acrobat.

    Be sure to include your Acrobat version.
    Good luck!

    Relax, they weren't converted to PDF.
    You can tell by right clicking ANY of them and choosing "Properties". You'll see there that they're STILL .xls or .xlsx files. The "association" has changed and Windows now indicates that they open with Reader, which isn't right.
    Where it says "Open With" under the General tab, you can click "Change" and re-select Excel as the default app to open thim.

  • How can I stop Firefox from opening (to "File Not Found") when opening my Opera browser?

    Ever since I installed Opera 10.61 on my new computer (Windows 7 Ultimate operating system), whenever I open Opera, Firefox opens one second later with the following error message:
    '''File not found '''
    Firefox can't find the file at /C:/Users/Nasheed/AppData/Local/Opera/Opera/temporary_downloads/client-en.xml.
    * Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
    * Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.
    TRY AGAIN.
    <nowiki>****************************************************</nowiki><br />
    This happens EVERY TIME I OPEN THE OPERA BROWSER. How can I stop this from happening? I'm stumped.
    [EXTRA INFO - I was unable to enable Firefox to access my previous profile on the new computer (despite putting the old profile in the appropriate Mozilla Firefox folder. So, there are now two profiles in that location.
    After reading the answer to another forum member's question, I attempted to resolve the problem using Profile Manager, but I was unable to locate the Profile Manager. The Windows "Search" feature is not enabled on my new computer (nor can it be enabled from the Customize Start Menu options).]

    Thank you for your response, Cor-el.
    I had Opera set as my default browser since this began happening. I changed my default browser back to Firefox mainly because having Firefox open one or two seconds every time I open Opera was/is such a nuisance.
    I believe this problem began because I attempted to manually transfer the files from my old computer to the new one (via the backed up files in my external drive). I was unfamiliar with Windows 7 when I did this. Microsoft changed the file set up from what I had been used to in Windows XP. I used XP for six years before being exposed to Windows 7 (I never had Vista).
    I'm almost sure this problem has something to do with where I placed the application data when I was trying to reestablish the program set up on the new computer.

  • How do I stop OSX from creating ._ thumbnails of network files

    Our macs are networked to Windows servers that hold a large amount of image files. These are updated on a continual basis unfortunately the files can't be saved directly to the server but copied blindly into the folder from our macs. The ._ invisible files on the mac appear in windows, not really a big deal (although I would rather they didn't exist a all) The big problem comes when the folders on the server are opened on the mac, it takes forever for the mac to create the little alias or thumbnail files for each image. How do I stop OSX from doing this.

    You can stop "some" of those pesky ._invible files with this...

  • How do I stop GoLive from changing the location of my CSScriptLib.js file?

    How do I stop GoLive from changing the location of my CSScriptLib.js file?
    I am making rollovers and want my CSScriptLib.js to be in the same folder as my HTML files.
    Every time I edit the rollovers GoLIve recreates the path of the CSScriptLib.js to file:///Users/xxx/Library/Preferences/Adobe/GoLive/Settings8/JScripts/GlobalScripts/CSScr iptLib.js so it won't work when uploaded. I always need to edit my HTML before uploading. All I want it to say is src="CSScriptLib.js" as the default.

    The site file is a database that keeps track of all your assets (and much more), including the scriptLib file. As soon as the page is saved (when you use the site file and it's open) the link will be change to the correct path that will work on the server.
    If you're not using the site file you might as well use a text editor, since most of GL functionality is gone.

    How can I STOP iTunes from automatically trying to add podcasts to my iPod when I plug it in and sync it, so I can manage the files? I have already unchecked "Sync Podcasts" and "Automatically include,"yet EVERY time I sync it,it still transfers podcasts as the last step, and at other times randomly, when trying to just add some MP3's to a playlist, for example.  I can't seem to find any other option to uncheck, and can't find an answer from my so-far internet searching.

    erict, you blew me away with that suggestion! It was something so simple I couldnt believe I hadnt thought of it! But in the end it didn't work, which I was really surprised about. On Windows anytime anything was moved itunes was hoplessly lost, but on this mac it still kept up with everything. I tried renaming folders, moving folders, and even renaming moved folders but it still kept trying to import.
    I even went as far as deleting EVERYTHING i had moved to the Mac, which didnt really work. It still kept trying to import what wasnt there which made it continue to freeze up. However, after doing this it, the freezing was not nearly as bad. It gave me enough of a break to cancel it through the itunes dialog box at the top of the app. So in the end, thats all I really needed to do, only before I had deleted everything the freezing would not allow me to do it.
    So now Im reimporting everything again, only slowly, and only a few Artists at a time.

  • How do I stop spotlight from returning .r and .h files

    how do I stop spotlight from returning .r and .h files?

    Hello jtenny,
    Welcome to the Discussions.
    I had a similar problem with Safari opening .pdf files. It went away when I went into the following folder: Your Home Folder/Library/Internet Plug-ins, and dragged out any files that looked as if they might make a difference, just one at a time, onto the Desktop. (N.B. I did not Trash them; and if removal made no difference, I replaced the file into the Plug-ins folder.) You will have to restart Safari on each occasion; and on a couple of occasions I found that re-setting Safari (Safari Menu) was necessary to give the application a start-from-scratch with each download attempt.
    That's a somewhat makeshift way of approaching it; but provided you don't trash the plugins, and provided you restore those that make no difference, it can't do any harm -- within my experience anyway.
    All good wishes from Ireland

  • How do I stop lion from opening all previously opened files on restart?

    How do I stop lion from opening all previously opened files on restart?  I want to wipe all open files, since that seems to be the most efficient way to close lots & lots of open files (that build up over the course of normal activities)

    One way is to always quit all applications before you shut down.
    An easy way to do this (although in my own experience it doesn't seem to always work perfectly) is to simply hit CMD + TAB + Q and hold down all three keys. 
    When you do that the computer will cycle through all open apps and close them. If there are any open files that haven't been saved, it won't close them. So you should save everything you want to save before you hit CMD + TAB + Q. 

  • How do I stop aperture from reprocessing my my raw files on import

    how do I stop aperture from reprocessing my my raw files on import

    Here's the thing: You didn't shoot in B&W and the Raw is in colour.
    Your camera shoots everything in colour because that's what the sensor in the camera is - RGB. For B&W shots what happens is that the camera adds a display tag to the shot - and this is written to the Jpeg you shoot, and so it displays.
    But a Raw is a sensor dump from the camera. This is all the data that the camera has, and all of that is in colour, so it shows in colour on Aperture.
    Convert to B&W in Aperture or shoot Jpeg.
    Regards
