Is there a way to change the default export filetype in Illustrator CS4 for Mac OSx

Hi,
I do a significant amount of exporting from Illustrator and always need my images exported as JPG. The default filetype for exporting in CS4 (for mac) is PNG, and I can't find a way to change this. Since I always want to export as JPG, I feel like I should be able to set that as a default.
Am I missing something? How can I change this default?
Thanks,
Chris

You can create an action.
Record the action then go to file export select jpeg and then the quality etc and then exort and stop recording the action give it a keyboard shortcut.

  • Apple Mail, is there a way to change the default time-out?

    This has been puzzling me for some time and I have not found a solution. The problem which I also posted in the Mail forum (though I think that if there is a positive answer it will come through here) is as follows:
    I have an email account with on my company's mail server which is actually a Novell Netware server with a POP3 service. When using mail to send mail, I have no problems. When using mail to recieve mail, well, sometimes it gets the mail, and sometimes it does not. Usually, I can recieve mail for two or three weeks then it just stops working. No changes to my system, no updates or anything, I recieve email at one point in the day and then 15 minutes later - nothing. In the Activity Monitor, I see "Connecting to ..." then "Sending Password" then "Checking for Messages", then (after a while) it beeps as if it did not find any messages to download (no error!).
    Some weeks later, after suffering with webmail, suddenly, it works again. This usually coincides with maintenance on the server, but not always. It also seems to correspond with a general improvement of the server performance. But eventually, the cycle starts over again with mail suddenly not able to find any new messages for that account.
    I use dial-up at home, ethernet LAN at work, and DSL at our satellite offices. When it works on one it works on all. Also note that my other email accounts (not in any way connected to my company) work as they should at all times and in each setting.
    Is it possible that mail simply times out before the messages are discovered. The Novell server used for mail is by no means known for its performance. If so, is there anyway to change the default timeout in mail for "Checking for Messages"?
    Things I have tried:
    I have dumped the "MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded" and "MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded2" files to no avail.
    I have changed computers (I recently upgraded from a ti400), reinstalled the OS, upgraded from 10.2.8 to 10.3.x to 10.4.3, and removed and recreated the mail account (multiple times), all to no avail.
    Based on the above observations, I feel that it may be that "Mail's" "Get-mail" function is timing out before new messages are discovered on a very slow server. Is there any way to change the default time-out to evaluate this hypothesis?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I already thought of that one.  I deleted my account from there.  But it didn't default to the other one.  It just told me I needed to add an account.  Thanks tho

  • Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"? (OSX 10.10)

    Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"?
    I can change it for one conversation, but then it resets to the default, tiny font.
    The preferences menu only lets me change the conversation font.

    Hi,
    As you may remember there used to be a Messages pane to the Preferences where the Font and colour of the Balloons or background and the Font text colour could be changed.
    And there was a Format Menu for character, word and Sentence changes in the current IM or iMessage.
    Those have gone in Yosemite's version of Messages (Despite it retaining the designation of Messages 8 the same as Mavericks' version).
    All that can be done now is set the size of the font and this has been moved to the General Section of the Preferences.
    The Yosemite version has also been fixed to using the Balloons style of send and receiving any type of messages as well.
    Changing the Font would involved editing the Balloon.transcript file.

  • Is there any way to change the default AWR thresholds?

    Hi Gurus,
    Is there any way to change the default thresholds or attributes of AWR reports for a database?
    I have a requirement to change threshold for the SQL statements reported based on sharable memory.
    *"SQL ordered by Sharable Memory"*
    By defaults it reports statements only above 1Mb (I think it is in Bytes). So I can find only one statement being reported in this category or some times even nil.
    *"Only Statements with Sharable Memory greater than 1048576 are displayed"*
    It would be great help for me if you guys can help me out as we have issues related to memory often.
    Thanks and regards

  • Is there a way to change the default action for clicking a "Print" button on a website to open Print Preview instead of the default system printer?

    When I am at a website that contains a button for printing (Gmail, for example), is there a way to change the way that functions, so that when I click "Print", Firefox will open Print Preview instead of taking me to the default system printer?

    You can apply  system-wise "negative" color effect under Settings > General > Accessibility, by toggling the White and Black switch - and, in iCab Mobile (and some other, better browsers / PDF readers), its own "night mode" negative color scheme.
    Otherwise, no, you can't do anything else except for asking third party app authors to add selectable back/froeground (=text) colors to their apps.

  • Is there a way to change the default print tray on an HP LaserJet 500 color M551 Printer

    Hi
    Is there a way to setup the default print tray for a HP LaserJet 500 color M551 printer to be tray 2 printing both online and direct?
    If so what would be the best way to go about implementing it?
    Thanks

    Usually, you can change the default paper trays through the control panel and through the Embedded Web server (EWS).
    Check the settings on your control panel. Here is a link to the User Guide, check out page 94 and see if that helps you out.
    m551 User Guide
    For the EWS, put the printer IP address into your browser, then go to the tab that would list tray settings. Not sure exactly which tab has it for this printer series, but on other printer series it is on the system tab under paper setup.

  • Is there a way to change the default sound for alarms?

    That is, when I set a new event, I have it set to have the alarm activate one day before the actual event (thanks to MadisonP for answering that). I'd like to change the default alarm from Basso to something a little more pleasant. Is it possible to have ical set up so that when I create a new event, the alarm is automatically Submarine?
    Please help.
    Best,

  • Is there a way to change the defaulted (press 'Enter or Return on keyboard) button in a dialog box? Specifically,

    When the cookie preference is set to "ask every time" the default button (highlighted & selected when I hit return or enter) is "allow." Can I change the default button to "allow for session" so I don't have to use the mouse to select it?

    Your question/suggestion got me thinking about making a programmable function key (PFK), but I couldn't think how to make a PFK represent a mouse click. Then I tried the option [ ⌥ ] key (I don't have Alt [⎇ ] ) and the s, with or without the shift. I tried the command [⌘] key, and finally the control [⌃] key with the s — that's the one that worked. 8¬D
    I remembered scripting radio buttons, which might apply here, but it's been too long ago.
    Thank you for pointing me in a new direction, that will do well enough 'till I find out if the default button(s) can be changed in dialog boxes in general.

  • Is there any way to change the default folder for new finder windows...

    ...Or even set a different folder as the "home folder"?
    I am recovering from an incredibly messy archive and install which refused to allow me to save my old user accounts, instead moving them all into "Previous Systems". In my haste to get the machine working again I just dragged and dropped my old home folder into the /users/ directory and changed the "short name" of the new account to match it. IT worked, but now I have an incredibly irritating problem. That is now indeed my home folder, as appears in the sidebar of all finder windows, albeit under my new short name instead of my old one. All my documents in iWeb, Garageband, etc are working now and default to the new folder.
    However, Finder has not recognized this, and every time I open a new Finder window or anything like that it defaults to the home folder created by the reinstall, which is now locked to this account (so all the folders have a red no entry sign on them). I would very much like to tell Finder to ignore this now defunct folder and default to my actual home folder instead - is there a way to do this without actually moving or changing any folders? Like a preference setting somewhere? I know there's the "Advanced Options" pane in Leopard but I've been completely unable to find anything like it in Tiger

  • Is there a way to change the default colors for iPad apps?

    I noticed one of my friends iPad 2 had a different color scheme for apps and I would like to change my iPad 2's default ( which is currently grey). To elaborate, the default color for the borders and tabs in Safari are grey on my iPad, my friends are blue. Would like to change from the drab grey color to blue also but I cannot find a setting for this. All applications and Setup apps have this default color scheme on my ipad. Do I have to reset the iPad and start over with setup to achieve this? Hope not, perhaps someone can shed some light on an easy way to do this. Thank You!
