Installing screensavers that aren't .saver file

I downloaded the time machine screen saver file from apple's website, but it isn't a .saver file. can anyone help me load this as a screen saver, I went to the site and still can't find instructuions on how to load it. here is the link to the screen saver on apple's site. http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/icons_screensavers/timemachinescreensaver. html

Download and install StuffIt Expander, and then try opening the .bin file again; if it still won't open, select it in the Finder, and choose Get Info from the File menu. Under Open With, choose StuffIt Expander as the default application for that file, click Change All, and confirm your action.

  • How do I add a "file folder" to my TC so that I can save files directly to the TC?

    I am trying to figure out how I can add a "File Folder" to my TC so that I can save files directly to it? The only folder it displays is "Data" which is where my bac ups save...

    Double click on the "Data" folder in the Finder under the SHARED heading, and then click the gear icon at the top of the window and select New Folder.
    You can name this folder anything you wish and also create as many folders as you wish.
    If you are also using the Time Capsule drive for Time Machine backups, it is not really recommended that you "mix" regular files with Time Machine backups because there will be a struggle for space on the drive at some point.
    If you have plenty of free space on the Time Capsule drive, you may be OK with keeping a portion dedicated for regular files.

  • Any apps that download and save files to itouch?

    Are there any apps that have the ability to DL and save files such as .PDF's directly to my itouch over the wifi for use offline, and without any syncing with my pc? It seems that any apps that i see require syncing with my pc either directly or remotely.
    All I'd like to do is save a file while I'm surfing and open it offline. Free apps would be preferred.

    FileSync: $5, requires you to host your files on an FTP site
    Files Lite: $0
    Briefcase Lite: $0
    Each offers support and more functional paid versions.

  • Since installing mavericks I can't save files from my HP scanner

    I installed Mavericks yesterday and now I can't save scanned JPEGs from my HP ScanJet4890 scanner into the folder that I was saving them into previously. I keep getting a dialogue box telling there is an error and that the destination is Read Only. I've checked the folder and the permissions are marked as Read Write. I've reinstalled the software and update with no effect. Any help would be appreciated as I am in the middle of a project to scan all of my old negatives into a hard drive.

    I have the same issue with my HP Photosmart C4280 all-in-one printer/scanner/copier .  I'm using HP Scan version 2.1.3(7).  Actually my first scan saved a file, but when I went to look at the file, it was an all-black page with white lines.  When I tried again, I would get an error message:" Error.  An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to.  Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only."  Trying again and again always yielded the same error.

  • SINCE INSTALLING I.E. 11 IN WINDOWS 7, UNABLE TO DOWNLOAD OR SAVE FILES IN FIREFOX; HOW DO I CORRECT THIS PROBLEM?

    This is what I wrote to the Microsoft Community seeking a correction of the issue (still no reply to my request for assistance with this matter from them):
    Can I go back to I.E. 10? Ever since I installed version 11, I've had an unstable desktop. It appears to have damaged the Windows Explorer interface in other browsers, such that when I open the popup window to save downloads and/or other files, all that shows up in the window are the "Save" and "Cancel" buttons, but it does not show the interface to choose where to save the file(s), thus I cannot save anything at all in those other browsers. I primarily use Firefox, and every time I want to save a file, I have to startup I.E. 11 to save anything and everything.
    I would much prefer going back to I.E. 10 which caused me no such problems; but, if I cannot go back to I.E. 10, how do I correct this issue so I can save files in other browsers? This situation has been going on for months now, and I've waited patiently thinking that there would be an update for Microsoft and/or Firefox (as well as Chrome and Safari) that would correct this problem by now; but, even though I have all of the latest updates and versions installed, no updates have corrected the issue at all. I would very much appreciate any help you can give.
    Oh, also, I have tried uninstalling Firefox completely at least twice, and rebooting before reinstalling it to the latest version, but that has not corrected the problem either. I additionally tried turning I.E. 11 off in Windows, and then tried running Firefox to see if the download interface would be restored, but it still had the very same issue(s) [no ability to choose the place to save files, and thus being completely unable to save any downloads and/or other files]. I can't believe that this problem has been going on for so long now without any update(s) resolution.

    The following is the latest that I've written to Microsoft about this entire matter:
    You're still not getting it. I've never had a problem with downloading and/or saving files in I.E.; and I very clearly explained to you guys that the problem is in the other browsers, but it's caused by a malfunction in the Windows Desktop.
    Why can't someone with English as their first language, please help me?
    But, regardless, just in case your recommendation(s) had anything to do with anything, and were perhaps creating the problem in the other browser (though I was pretty sure that it had nothing to do with my problem), I made I.E. the default browser; yet, of course, that did NOT correct the problem. Also, when I set I.E. as the default browser, the explorer.exe file crashed and restarted.
    Nevertheless, because I (wrongly) thought that I couldn't uninstall I.E. 11, because somehow I missed the listing for it in Windows Programs and Features, I went to the latter again and found I.E. 11 listed this time, and uninstalled it. After it completed, I rebooted the laptop. Then I went into Windows Update and looked for what version of I.E. it was then going to want me to update to since I.E. 11 was uninstalled.
    I saw that I.E. was taken all the way back to I.E. 8 and had updates for it as well as to update to I.E. 9, so I did the former updates first, rebooted, then updated to I.E. 9 and rebooted again. Then I ran Windows Update again checking for new updates, and found that there was a cumulative security update for I.E. 9, which I installed and then rebooted once again.
    Then, upon checking for new updates in Windows Update again, I found that the option(s) to update to I.E. 10 or 11 were now optional, which they weren't before, and then I updated to I.E. 10 and rebooted once more. Upon Windows restarting, I checked again for new Windows Updates and there were some security updates, so I installed them and restarted the laptop.
    This time upon rebooting, I checked Windows Update for further new updates and there were none; so I'm now completely updated to I.E. 10; but, because going back to I.E. 10 corrected some of the instability with the Windows Desktop, I am ignoring the optional update to I.E. 11, and I am NOT going to update to it again.
    Throughout the update process, upon restarting Windows, I kept starting Firefox to see if the "Save As" window then worked, but throughout the entire update process, as well as when I completed it, I still could not download or save files [because the window still doesn't show where to save the file(s)---please see the Print Screen copy of what it looks like, attached to this message (sorry, but I.E. won't let me browse for the file, and the tab or windows crashes and reloads every time when I click "Browse" to look for the file to attach)].
    So, I decided to try uninstalling Firefox for the fourth time, rebooting and reinstalling it, hoping that might correct he issue this time since I downgraded to I.E. 10, but the "Save As" window still looks the same, and I am still completely unable to save any files or downloads while in Firefox.
    Oh, I also tried resetting all of the Windows Folder Options again to default settings, and reset all of the folders, in case that had anything to do with the problem, but that still did NOT correct the issue either.
    I am now going to try creating a new user account also with Administrator privileges, changing Users, trying to run Firefox in it, and see if the problem with the "Save As" window is still an issue....
    In the new User profile, the situation is even worse. When I try to save any file(s) in Firefox, Firefox crashes (latest version).
    I wrote to Firefox a couple of days ago, but an arrogant "techie" is giving me the run around and is not helping me, and no else is helping with the matter so far.
    Postscript: Now Windows Explorer (the explorer.exe file) that runs the desktop crashed and restarted again twice while I was trying to print a file, and it appears that it won't let me print at all anymore.

  • Word 2007 won't save files with Acrobat Pro 9.0 Installed

    Last night an issue started occurring while trying to save a document in MS Word 2007 (part of an Office Ultimate install).  After about 10 hours of trying several suggestions from a variety of forums and MS suggestions I found that the only time I cannot save a file by traditional means is when Acrobat is installed.  I tried updating Acrobate and had the same thing happen.  MS says all that's left for me to do is get an answer from Adobe (I have to wonder if it's a copout).
    Steps taken so far:
    Disabled the PDF add-in - still unable to save Word files
    Removed PDF add-in - still unable to save Word files
    Removed entire CS4 suite - Word was able to properly save files
    Installed only the parts of the suite that I use frequently (Photoshop, Soundbooth, Premiere, Acrobat) - unable to save Word files
    Removed Acrobat Pro 9.0 - Word saves files properly again
    When I say it will not save a file I've tried the keyboard shortcuts for Save/Save As, Choosing the Save/Save As from drop down, and even attempted to save by closing the document.  When prompted with the option to save changes I say yes and nothing will happen, I have to close the document with nothing saved.
    I hate the idea of reinstalling Acrobat each time I need to use it to keep Word functional.  I've seen a ton of threads on other forums related to this issue.  Has anybody else seen this or know about a fix/work around?  Any help is appreciated.  Please let me know if additional detail is necessary.
    The operating system for the affected computer is Windows 7 32-bit.

    I installed each update individually (6 of them) and rebooted after each update.  Opened Word and attempted to save a document (after each update/reboot), the documents still cannot be saved (previously created documents still cannot have new detail saved).
    Decided to delete the Office folder in the following path: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\PDFMaker\Office
    Opened up word and Acrobat went through an installation processes, to replace what was removed I assume.  After this was done I attempted to save a document and was still unable to do so.  Went back and deleted that Office folder in the above path again.  When opening Word this time I cancelled the installation process that Adobe was trying to complete.  Preventing the install of the settings and PDF add-in allowed documents to be saved again in word.
    I decided to try to remove the innactive add-in from my Word Options and received the following error message:
    "The connected state of Office Add-Ins registered in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE cannot be changed"
    Due to my deleting that folder?
    I suppose I could cancel that installation that initiates each time I open Word (or any other Office program that benefits from Acrobat Add-ins) but that will be a bit of an annoyance.
    Anybody have another suggestion, know what may need to be deleted from the registry to prevent the Add-ins installation when opening Word, or know where that setting can be changed?
    Hopefully getting close to a resolution

  • I want to download and install adobe flash player. When I do so one occur. A dialog box appears but it has no run option but a save file or cancel option.

    # Question
    I want to download and install adobe flash player. When I do so one of 2 things occur. A dialog box appears but it has no run option but a save file or cancel option. The other is if the proper dialog box appears, I agree and the a different box appears and there is foxfire with a red circle with a diagonal line across is appears.

    I find the easiest way to install Adobe Flash is to use the manual installers. You just need to download the installer to your computer, then run it to install Flash. For more details see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html#main_ManualInstaller
    That link states you should uninstall earlier versions, as you don't have the version of Flash used by Firefox you can skip that step.

  • When i try to install lightning it trys to save as a pdf file in adobe

    when i try to install lightning it will only save as a pdf in adobe
    how do i change that

    "you have chosen to open Lightning-3.3-sm+tb-windows-xpi"
    This doesn't sound like a Thunderbird message.
    In Thunderbird,
    '''Tools|Add-ons'''
    In the little search box at top right, type ''Lightning''. I can't see any opportunity for Adobe or anything else to become involved here.

    If you have downloaded the xpi file, you could just drag it onto the Add-ons window and drop it there.

  • Just converted word to PDF so that I can save on iPhone and subsequently use. Where is the file??

    Just converted word to PDF so that I can save on iPhone and subsequently use. Where is the file?? I have no idea where it is!! Extremely frustrating and not at all user friendly!! Took my 6.99 British pounds and not a sausage to be had!!

    It sounds like you may have purchased a CreatePDF subscription through safari, using our web interface. If this is the case, the good news is that subscription will also work with the (free) Adobe Reader. Simply install the Reader from the App Store:
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/adobe-reader/id469337564?mt=8
    Once installed, you can then use "Open In" from another app like Mail to open the Word document in Adobe Reader. Reader will show the word doc, but it will also show you a message pointing to the "convert" button (A document with an arrow through it in the toolbar). Pressing this button should prompt you to sign into Acrobat.com. Use the same account you used to purchase your subscription and Reader will upload the word document for conversion, placing it in the Acrobat.com and Outbox section of the Reader. Please let me know if you have trouble!
