It will not save as a jpeg from a bmp

I found info on how to save a .bmp to a .jpeg (thank you) but when I went to save it as it says..the computer said that "this document could not be saved as...." Why?
I scanned the printed pictures at a store they were then transfered onto a CD. I put the CD in, opened up the pictures under preview...good. Then I try to save as jpeg, but it won't do it. So frustrated.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Are you opening the file from the CD directly? If so try copying it to the desktop first and then open and convert.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Photoshop CS will not "save" or "save as" my canon 5d jpegs

    CS works fine for me. No need to upgrade. But it does not like my jpeg files from a Canon 5d. The program just freezes when I try to save or save as.
    I've looked at the file permissions and preferences. Can't see anything, but who knows? Any advice gratefully received. Tried renaming file, tried converting to TIFF but no luck so far. Argh!
    I'll attach a file if anyone wants to look at the settings.
    Best wishes, Patrick,

    Just replied in the PS forum. Yes reset all tolls works. File opens and Saves As - but on opening gives warning
    "embedded ICC profile cannot be used as is invalid. Ignoring."
    So somewhere - uploading from camera or loading into PS something sometimes goes wrong.
    So I'm not much wiser, but thanks for the fix anyway. Best, P.
    PS Was not a freeze as such, the main screen dims, and I regain control by clicking on a PS window on my second monitor. Did not check what Task Manager has to say - but will next time it goes wrong. Thanks.

    When you save "freeze" do you mean that Windows Task Manager says it's "not responding" or is it crashing or what?
    Out of curisity, when you do this, what happens when you press ESC on the keyboard? If the program comes back, then it might just be showing up off the screen.
    You might just try resetting preference per this FAQ:

    Hi Nuch1,
    I found an article that is contains very thorough Mail troubleshooting steps:

  • Import from camera will not save

    When I try to import a movie from a hand held camera (Sony Handycam HDR-HC9) with a FireWire cable iMovie will not import the video. It was working fine one minute then stopped. I have tried different recorded tapes and still nothing.
    The video will nnot play back on the Mac screen and will not save the movie even though it says it is importing. I tried using my personal Mac and it worked fine on there. I know it is a problem with iMovie on my work Mac.m

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
    Your h264 video files may not be in a format which imovie uses. Videos imported this way need to be in a format the camera supports. If however imovie recognises a camera or a camera archive it will carry out the appropriate conversion for you. You may need to copy the file/folder system from the camera rather than just the files.

    If you think you're insane now, try maintaining those pop up menus.
    As far as I know, these menus have not been updated since FW 8, so 
    they are at least two versions old.
    Save yourself a lot of grief by avoiding those menus. There are many 
    other products on the market which do a much better job of creating 
    and maintaining this type of navigation structure.
    Read this link before you climb any higher on this slippery slope:

    There was another blog post by the fellow who originally wrote the pop 
    up menu feature, but I can't seem to locate it. Even he says stay away 
    from them.
    Not the answer you probably want, but I hope it helps, nonetheless.

  • OSX 10.7.4. will not save ANY of my preferences (system or application -- Safari, Office, etc.)

    I am running System OSX 10.7.4 on three different MacBooks.  It will not save any of my preferences (system or application based), passwords, log-ins and keychain. Even Safari did not save imported bookmarks.  I am running Office For Mac 2011 (v 14.2.1) and Outlook will work for a day or two and then I get a rebuild database error message, losing everything.  Word, et all, will not save any preferences, not even recent files.
    I did a full erase and clean system reinstall and a fresh install of Office. This problem occurs on all 3 of my MacBook, 2- MacBook Pro’s and a MacAir.  One of the MacBook Pro’s is BRAND NEW. 
    Any ideas, any fixes out there?

    I have what seems to be a similar issue. Are you having other issues like mine?
    Macbook air      11-inch, Late 2010
                            4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Software           Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)
    I have updated the latest combi update from the apple site and still have the same issue.
    No matter what I try every time I restart my Mac all my preferences and applications reset. (Also preferences don't save when exiting the preference folder)
    For example when in >system preferences>general -untick the 'restore windows when quitting and re-open apps' I exit preferences and then go back in to check it has automatically reticked the box.
    I have deleted 2 applications several times (including removing the icon from the dock) and each time after restarting it shows a question mark on the dock where I had deleted it from.
    On restart I loose downloads and history in safai.
    On restart it re opens documents and applications I have quite even after unticking the restore applications on restart box (the one that comes up when shutting down or restarting)
    I have been trying to solve this for a month now and it really is frustrating the **** out of me.
    helpppp pleaseee...

  • IPhone 4S Calendar will not synch to OutLook 2010 from 1 of 2 phones

    Problem: iPhone 4S Calendar will not synch to OutLook 2010 from 1 of 2 phones. Contacts synch fine. Was no problem in the past until...
    Sorry for the length. Trying to give all info I can.
    Summary: Had to get motherboard fixed under factory warranty which included new hard drive, and reinstall everything on an HP DV7 laptop. So this is a clean installation of everything on the laptop (Win7). Configuring iTunes and Outlook 2010 for two iPhone 4S users (myself and wife) was my last step. Re-established each user account to iTunes. Calendar synch problem popped up on one of two iPhones that did not exist before.
    Prior history: all synchs worked great prior to the clean install and I never had a problem.
    Config: Windows 7, two iPhone 4S, Week Calendar apps on both. All software up-to-date on iPhones and Win7 (fanatic about that). Had OL2010 PST datafile backups and simply used them for the OL re-installs. OL2010 makes that easy. Each user has their own Win7 login to keep our stuff separate. Of course, OL has Calendar as part of its install.
    Week Calendar apps on both are configured with same calendars (Calendar, Home, My Birthdays, Work). Verified each iPhone Calendars app, Calendar button: From My PC listing has all these checked: All From My PC, Calendar, Home, My Birthdays, Work; Other: Birthdays.
    Difference: In using iTunes to synch, iTunes said the iPhone account was different from the OL account and asked to merge or replace. Apparently this is normal for iTunes on a new install (since basically it is) synching to prior synched stuff.
    iTunes settings for both: Connect iPhone for each user and checked INFO settings for Contacts and Calendars.I used “selected calendars” and verified. Each user has all four calendars checked.
    NOTE: Prior to each users first synch below, neither user had anything in OL2010 Calendar. Can't blame on recurring events problems in OL. ALL the events are on the iPhones and are being synched TO the PC to populate OL2010 Calendars.
    Additional Note: Contacts was already loaded into OL from my backups so synching has no problem.
    User 1 iPhone: Success 1st try.
    In iTunes, selected “merge info” instead of replace.
    Results: User 1 synched fine from iTunes to OL2010 including the 4 Calendars (Calendar, Home, My Birthdays, Work). 4 calendars showed up. No problems at all. Wonderful! expected behavoir.
    User 2 iPhone: Still failing to synch.
    In iTunes, selected “replace” instead of merge info. Apple’s dialog is incredibly confusing and non-explicit on what copies to what and what it does.
    Results: User 2 synched fine from iTunes to OL2010 for Contacts. DID NOT synch the 4 Calendars (Calendar, Home, My Birthdays, Work). Only calendar that shows up in OL is Calendar and it doesn’t contain any data. iTunes has no errors and the synch status bar indicates everything went fine.
    Tried: I deleted the PST files and copied the backup files back to OL to start over. ITUNES no longer gives me the merge info versus replace option. I’ve synched multiple times but the calendar data will not synch.
    Not Tried: Creating the same remaining named calendars (Home, My Birthdays, Work) in OL and trying again.
    ALL suggestions is greatly appreciated.

    Ok, new info. This gets better and better.
    In OL2010, the Calendar in the navigation pane had no arrow indicating it had subcalendars within it. I right clicked on Calendar and chose New Calendar. It gave me a list of the existing calendars that were missing !!
    When I cancelled, there was an expand arrow next to Calendar in the Navigation pane !!!!!
    Expanding it showed the unchecked missing calendars. I checked them and synched again.
    WRONG THING TO DO! ALL my wife's calendar entries in her iPhone since the laptop went down 3 weeks ago DISAPPEARED. No warnings, nothing at any step of this process. The OL files overwrote the iPhone data.
    I can't find any way to get them back as this **** iStuff relies on iTunes for everything.
    Is there any way to get her files back from before this synch?
    Is there no way to save data files off the iPhone w/o iTunes?
    Why doesn't iTunes let you control the direction of data transfer?
    I now have one very ****** off wife.

  • Pages 5.0 will not save documents created in Pages 09

    I have hundreds of important documents I created and saved in Pages 09.  I got a new Mac Mini running Mavericks 10.9.5 with the new Pages 5.0.  The new Pages will not save my Pages 09 documents.  Pages 09 will not save them either.  Help!

    1. Is it possible you installed from a demo installer and your 30 day trial period is up, when it goes into Read Only mode?
    2. Where and what was your purchased disk?
    3. Where are you saving to?
    4. Have you tried saving somewhere else eg an external hard drive and see what happens then?
    5. The auto-saving issue with Pages 5.2.2 could be problems with iCloud and online access.

  • Photoshop CS6 - Batch function will not save files

    OK, I have used the "Automate/Batch" function well over a hundred times, so this situation (first time using it in CS6) is VERY frustrating!
    Running Adobe CS6 extended v. 13.0.1 x32 on a Win XP sp3 OS.
    I have a slew of photos that need nothing done except to resize from the native file size to 6 in x 4 in @ 150 ppi and save into a new folder (to not override the original).  I have recorded the action multiple times now and each time I run the action, the files do not save! Here are the various parameters I've used:

    Please help!  This has never been a problem before CS6 and I truly am at my wits end trying to figure out why the files will not save.  I have several hundred files that I need to run this on, so doing it individually is not an option.
    Thanks in advance for any and all insights!

    I'm having a problem with Automating > Batch as well. Strange enough, I did a batch of other photos and it worked fine. Selecting a new set of folders is not working at all; the files simply pop open and then close but the destination folder remains empty. It also doesn't appear the actions are occuring since I don't see them highlighting as the automation runs. I have no idea why it would work then not. BTW, "Override Action "Save As" is unchecked.
    ~CG
    UPDATE: I put a "save as" command at the beginning of the action, then checked the "Override Action "Save As" box and it somehow works now, but not before stalling on an image (normally the last in the folder) and complaining that the image was being used in another program. The only other program opened was Bridge so I'm unsure why it had a problem. I closed both programs and ran the automation with nothing else opened and it worked ... ?? Confused, but not complaining (for now).

  • Firefox will not save Site Certificate Exceptions even when checked to do so.

  • Safari 7.0 will not save PDF

    My Safari 7.0 will not save PDF files that can be opened, what do I need to do to get this function working again?

    Back up all data.
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Adobe Reader will not save or show the Save dialog

    Hello, we use adobe reader a lot where I work, mostly with filling out pre-made "Form" type PDF's and saving them in customer folders on the server, as of last friday my adobe reader will not allow me to save pdf's, I have attempted to edit and save, edit and save-as, I tried simply saving as without making any edits. I also tried to open a PDF online (specifically http://www.ncu.edu.tw/~ncu25352/Uploads/201312311030531151830864.pdf ), tested that PDF on another PC and it would allow me to save it.
    I uninstalled Adobe reader 11 and reinstalled from the website ( get.adobe.com/reader ), I then uninstalled anything on the pc that relates to PDF's that I could find (which was just reader and a dictionary add-in for reader 9) and attempted to reinstall without any change in the problem.
    To recap, PDF's will not save, and when I click save-as no save dialog pops up, I cannot save via the IE add-in either.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated by both my boss and myself!

    You mention IE, so I assume that you are on Windows.
    How are you trying to save that PDF, using the IE menu bar File Save as, or the floating toolbar in the Adobe Reader plugin?

  • Outlook 2013 will not save Compact Navigation Option setting

    We have started upgrading some of the machines in our office from Office 2010 to 2013, (win7 and win 8 machines). I have found that Outlook will not save the selection of "compact navigation" in the "Folder Pane/Options" settings. I
    have tried a complete uninstall/reinstall of office 2013, resetting cleanviews, profile, etc. I cannot get it to save this setting. It always goes back to the extra large "Mail, Calendar, People, tasks" navigation. Any ideas? This is happening on
    muiltiple machines that we have upgraded from Office 2010. 

    Copying answer from similarly asked question:
    FOR THE FIRST STRING (To keep a compact navigation pane):
    Press the START button and type in "regedit"
    On the left side drill down to [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\Options]
    Under EDIT in the toolbar select NEW>KEY and name it WunderBar. Make sure you have the new key selected.
    Under EDIT in the toolbar select NEW>DWORD (32-bit) Value and name it ABCompact. Make sure you select it.
    Under EDIT in the tool bar select MODIFY and change the value to 00000001
    FOR THE SECOND STRING (To modify the order of the navigation items):
    With regedit still open.
    On the left side drill down to [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\Preferences]
    Under EDIT in the toolbar select NEW>String Value and name it ModuleOrderAB. Make sure you select it.
    Under EDIT in the tool bar select MODIFY and change the value to 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
    Adjusting the order of the numbers will adjust the order they appear in. For instance in my case I wanted NOTES to show up fourth so my string is 1,2,3,5,4,6,7,8,9.

  • System Settings will not save my desired mouse scroll direction

    I understand the Apple genius of wanting the Settings: Mouse: Scroll direction: Natural box to be checked.  But **** it, this is MY iMac and I want the scroll direction to remain Unchecked, so the screen scrolls in the direction I’ve been used to for YEARS.
    The problem is the System Settings will not save the unchecked scroll box.  I have to return to the System Settings every time I log on to UN check the Scroll Direction: Natural box.
    Will Apple ever fix this so that I, and others, can operate the scrolling as THEIR LONG-TIME USER sees fit?

    Quit the application.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
