How do you open and save PNG files as images rather than a document (which my MacBook is doing automatically)?

Hi,
Basically I'm doing a course in which i need to import images on a document for evidence (in particular Cirque Du Soleil, yes it's a weird course!) I am using the develop menu tab and using the Inspect Element menu. Here i have found loads of images that are perfect for my evidence, but the images are all showing as PNG files. Whenever I try to save these they will only save as Documents and not images. How can I change this so I can save them as images and import them imto Pages.
Many Thanks
Mason

Hi @Shootist007
I knew PNG files were image files, that why i was confused when I saved them onto my Mac they were showing as Documents under file type. But i managed to do via Preview (opened it up in Preview then click and dragged to my document).
Thanks for your help

1. Install and configure Webutil following instructions in the webutil manual
and the readme file.
2. Create a form with a block Eg. DEPT
3. Create a button, and in that button put the following code -
DECLARE
application Client_OLE2.Obj_Type;
workbooks Client_OLE2.Obj_Type;
workbook Client_OLE2.Obj_Type;
worksheets Client_OLE2.Obj_Type;
worksheet Client_OLE2.Obj_Type;
args Client_OLE2.List_Type;
cell ole2.Obj_Type;
j INTEGER;
k INTEGER;
BEGIN
application := Client_OLE2.create_obj('Excel.Application');
workbooks := Client_OLE2.Get_Obj_Property(application, 'Workbooks');
workbook := Client_OLE2.Invoke_Obj(workbooks, 'Add');
worksheets := Client_OLE2.Get_Obj_Property(workbook, 'Worksheets');
worksheet := Client_OLE2.Invoke_Obj(worksheets, 'Add');
go_block('dept');
first_record;
j:=1;
k:=1;
while :system.last_record = 'FALSE'
loop
for k in 1..3 /* DEPT has 3 columns */
loop
If not name_in(:system.cursor_item) is NULL Then
args:=Client_OLE2.create_arglist;
Client_OLE2.add_arg(args, j);
Client_OLE2.add_arg(args, k);
cell:=Client_OLE2.get_obj_property(worksheet, 'Cells', args);
Client_OLE2.destroy_arglist(args);
Client_OLE2.set_property(cell, 'Value', name_in(:system.cursor_item));
Client_OLE2.release_obj(cell);
End If;
next_item;
end loop;
j:=j+1;
next_record;
end loop;
/* For the last record */
for k in 1..3
loop
If not name_in(:system.cursor_item) is NULL Then
args:=Client_OLE2.create_arglist;
Client_OLE2.add_arg(args, j);
Client_OLE2.add_arg(args, k);
cell:=Client_OLE2.get_obj_property(worksheet, 'Cells', args);
Client_OLE2.destroy_arglist(args);
Client_OLE2.set_property(cell, 'Value', name_in(:system.cursor_item));
Client_OLE2.release_obj(cell);
End If;
next_item;
end loop;
Client_OLE2.Release_Obj(worksheet);
Client_OLE2.Release_Obj(worksheets);
/* Save the Excel file created */
args := Client_OLE2.Create_Arglist;
Client_OLE2.Add_Arg(args,'d:\test.xls');
Client_OLE2.Invoke(workbook, 'SaveAs', args);
Client_OLE2.Destroy_Arglist(args);
/* release workbook */
Client_OLE2.Release_Obj(workbook);
Client_OLE2.Release_Obj(workbooks);
/* Release application */
Client_OLE2.Invoke(application, 'Quit');
Client_OLE2.Release_Obj(application);
END;
4. Save the form and compile it.
5. Run the form.
6. Execute the query in the block.
7. Click on the button.
8. An excel file will be created in the d:\ directory by the name test.xls.
Kind regards,
Alex

How do I download and saves html files off my website to store and save using Dreamweaver CS3?
I need to save all files from web and store onto a drive to reupload to a new domain name. I use Dreamweaver CS3.

First define your Local Site folder in Dreamweaver. DW will use this folder to store your site files.
Go to Manage Sites > New or Edit site. See screenshots.
Servers: Enter your remote server's log-in details. When complete, hit TEST to see if the connection is working. If all is well, hit SAVE.
From the Files Panel (F8), click on Remote Server to show the files that are currently there. Click the green Down Arrow to GET files from remote server to your local site folder.

How do I open and save a DVD as movie file?

I have a DVD with video content that I want to eventually get "in" to iMovie for editing.
I can open and play with iDVD.
I need to save it as a movie file so that I can hopefully import it to iPhoto - and eventually open and edit with iMovie.
How do I save it as a movie file? When I tried QuickTime it wasn't able to open it either.
Thanks,
Kathy

Did you load the MPEG2 Playback Component?
If you open your DVD in the Finder, you should find a folder called Video_TS. In this folder, you should see several files with the extension .VOB. Drag one of these files into MPEG Streamclip and you should be able to play it. If you get that far, we'll keep going.
AIC is Apple Intermediate Codec. It is a high quality codec good for editing. DV is the codec used by MiniDV camcorders. You can pick these in MPEG Streamclip by selecting FILE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME/AIC or FILE/EXPORT TO DV
There are other solutions, but this is the best one if you want to preserve the quality of your files before editing.

Open and Save downloaded files at the same time (in one click)

OVERALL GOAL: To click on PDF links online, save the files to my Downloads folder, AND open them in Acrobat Pro, all in one click.
Does anyone have a suggestion for how I would tell Firefox to both Save and Open my downloads? I'm using OS X, if it helps/matters.

That happens automatically with both my Macs. I have one using 10.4 and another using 10.6. I use PDFView rather than Adobe, but I doubt that makes much difference. You are using Adobe as a helper application, not a plugin, right?

Could anybody help me about that?
Thank you very much in advance.

Why does Apple say that Numbers can open and save Excel files, when in actuality, it can only open .XLSX files and only Export to Excel (not save-as excel)?

When attempting to open .XLS files in Numbers, the format is not recognized. When the format is .XLSX, the format is recognized. Why is it this way? It's still much more common for folks to have the .XLS file format on their excel files. Why would Numbers not be backwards-compatible?
Additionally, to state in the benefits of this program that one can save to 'Excel' is a little misleading. You can't save to anything except .numbers. Sure, you can export to Excel (with file extension .XLS, I might add), but you can't save or save-as.
Does anyone else see the irony in being able to export to .XLS but not be able to open an .XLS?
There is something to be said for clarity.
You can't expect folks to have Numbers and Excel on their systems, so how else are they supposed to open .XLS files in Numbers?
And I don't need to see another advertisement for NeoOffice or OpenOffice here, thanks. I'd actually like Numbers to be a little more sensible.
That is all.

When the advertisements were written, there was no Lion so we were able to Save As Excel.
At thiqs time there is no longer Save As command under Lion but the feature is always available.
When your editing task is ended, you are free to use this scheme:
File > Duplicate
File > Save and in the dialog you will have the option save as Excel.
Numbers isn't and I hope that it will not become an Excel editor.
Its resources contain a flag defining it this way.
I posted several times a script editing this resource.
This morning I'm not in a mood allowing me to do your duty.

Trying to modify SaveDocsAsSVG to open and save all files within a directory automatically

I am trying to do as the title suggests, but I can't find a way to specify the folder I want the script to look at and I can't get it to open/save/close the files without user interaction. Another way to say it is that I need this to be itterative as the PC I'm using cannot handle too many open files at once.
On a side note, I can't even find the documentation. Example, what arguments does Folder.selectDialog() accept? Where is the documentation for that?
Thank peeps!

Action to open and save multiple files in a different format

Photoshop CS5
TCS 3
I haven't used actions before.
I want and to open all files in a folder of one format and save them to a different format.
How is this done?
Thanks
Rob

Assuming you have all one format and would like to just open all the files and save as a different format without changing anything...
One way, using Photoshop and actions and automation, would be to define an action that just does a File - Open then File - Save As to a different file.
To define an action, in the ACTIONS panel create a new set and a new action, then just record the steps on an existing file. Once done, hit the Stop button.
Once this very simple action has been defined, use File - Automate - Batch... to set up to run the action on a whole folder full of files.
You'll likely want to use the [ ] Override Action "Open" Commands and [ ] Override Action "Save As" Commands options. The latter option allows you to do things like specify the JPEG save quality in the action, and not be prompted for it every time.
Your Batch dialog may look something like this:
