I am using 10.7.4.  How can I stop Preview from saving versions.

In Lion, 10.7.4 Prieview was changed to use Versions.  This means the previous options of SaveAs is no longer available.
I want to be able to open a file in Preview and SaveAs (now Export) my changes, without having Preview then save those changes in the original file when I close the window.  I know that I can use Revert to get back to the original, but is is time consuming and annoying to have to do so.  How can I stop Lion from using versions??

  • How can i stop preview from opening firefox?

    How can i stop preview from opening firefox? I'm on a late 2007 macbook pro running Mountain lion. I would rather have it open Safari when I click on a link within a pdf not firefox. Help?

    Thanks Kappy! Tho I feel a bit silly that it was that easy.

  • How can I stop Preview from opening at startup even though it is not listed in my Login Items?

    When I log into one of my user accounts in my MacBook Pro (Mountain Lion), Preview is always open. The preview window itself is not open but the application name is active in the menu bar in the top left hand corner. The Preview item on the taskbar is also lit. Both of these indicate to me that Preview is running. However, I checked my Login Items repeatedly and Preview is not even listed. I also make sure that when logging out, the "Reopen windows when logging out" is unchecked. But Preview still always opens whenever I log into this particular user account -- it does not do it in any of my other user accounts. How can I fix this?

    Thanks. I got to the bottom of it by checking Login Items. I had Flux, iTunes Helper, and Dropbox. I removed the first two from Login Items, leaving only Dropbox. However, when I rebooted and logged in, Preview was still open and Flux and iTunes Helper were back in the Login Items. To find out which application is the culprit, I looked under Flux's Preferences settings and disabled it from opening at login. I was intending to do it for every application until I find the culprit, but doing so to Flux solved the problem.

    Did you check the network setting?
    Sounds that you have set to connect automatically when a connection is not available.

  • 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.

  • HT1766 Hi, I share an iTunes account with my wife. Sometimes she gets my iMessages and I don't and vice versa. Also if people face time me it goes to her phone. How can I stop this from happening?

    You can share the same Apple ID in
    Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: here
    But for all other Apple services like:
    FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, etc, one of you should use a different Apple ID.

  • When syncing iPhone 5s pictures, how can I stop it from backing that album up on my phone?

    I want to delete songs off of my computr because it's taking up unnecessary space, but how can I do this without them being removed from my iPhone when I sync it next?
    As given, removing from the library causes the songs to be removed during sync. So the space taken up is neccessary... What would you do if your iPhone where lost, stolen, damaged or needed to be restored?
    If you ned more room for storage buy a bigger drive. In fact buy two, one to use as a backup for your library and all your other important files.

  • I have an iphone 4 that keeps deleting my notes. How can I stop this from happening?

    I have an iphone 4 that keeps deleting my notes. How can I stop this from happening? I've had my phone over 2 years and only in the past 2 months has it started deleting notes. Now they are all deleted, but thankfully still in my email, but only on a computer.

    I guess he/she open Notes in Gmail settings. This archives (one way sync) notes in gmail account under notes label that is invisible if you are using the standard gmail setup on your iPhone. You can see it on desktop browser, Safari or gmail app in iDevice. Am I wrong?
    Sorry for bad English.

  • HT3529 How can I stop Siri from speaking certain words as I text??? It is so annoying and unnecessary!

    How can I stop Siri from speaking certain words as I text??? It is so annoying and unnecessary!

    Actually, I did notice the thread age. However, this phenomenon only appeared with mu phone in the last week.
    You and I both would hope that it was corrected long ago, but that is evidently not the case.
    I added information that will be useful for anyone else encountering my recent situation, now or perhaps in some distant future.
    If you are aggravated by notices re: threads over two years old, perhaps you should disengage from the thread in lieu of making
    snarky remarks to those of us still getting useful information from them.

  • How can I stop iCal from popping up for no reason ?

    Since today, my iCal is popping up as an opened application for no reason and I've had, up to now, to quit it 3 times. It's really annoying. I don't even use iCal anymore since I have BusyCal, which is a better version of iCal, but a totally different application.
    How can I stop iCal from popping up for no reason like that. Please, anyone, help me.

    What exactly is triggering this, are you clicking on some kind of file?

    You can also manage all permissions on the about:permissions page via the location bar.<br />
    Use "All Sites" to set the defaults.
    You can open about:xxxx pages via the location bar like you open a website.<br />
    Firefox uses the about: protocol to access internal Firefox (setting) pages.
