Keynote files revert back to 3.0.2.

Every time I save my keynote files they revert back to iWork '06 version (3.0.2).
I've already read "Topic : Keynote 3.03 and 4.01" and it does nothing, I've tried on different files, everything.
When I try to associate the file with 4.0.2 it recognizes it. The only way it will keep it is if I manually change every file. And if I change or re-save it, I have to do it again. I don't want to do this with every file, every time.
When I tell it to open all files with 4.0.2 I get this message: "Are you sure you want to change all similar documents to open with the application 'Keynote'? This change will apply to all documents with extention '.key'" When I click contintue - the file reverts back to 3.0.2.
Now every keynote file I have to manually change, after every time I save it.. - Why is it my default? Where did it come from?
Tell me how to fix this, please. PLEASE HELP!!!

Have you tried deleting Keynote version 3 OR renaming version 3 from "Keynote" to "Keynote 3"?

After I edit a raw file in Lightroom 5 and with raw 8.5, the edited files revert back to being unedited. Any ideas?

I edit them in Lightroom. Then the little symbol appears in the bottom of the thumbnail in the film strip at the bottom of the LR screen. Then, a few minutes later, the symbol is gone. I then click on one or more of the thumbnails and the image opens in the main screen. However, all of the sliders on the right are at their defaults, and the image is back in its unedited state. Last night, for a while, the edits reappeared, but tonight they were gone again. I just recently downloaded Camera Raw 8.5. I wonder if that is the problem.
What little symbol? Do you mean the up-arrow symbol that appears top-right of grid or film strip images? This indicates that the image has been edited by another program.
Or do you mean the "+/-" symbol that appears bottom right?. This appears after editing, but if it disappears subsequently without you doing anything, it sounds like something nasty is happening to the catalogue or image xmp file on disk.
Lightroom doesn't use ACR (8.5 or any other version) - it has the same functions built-in. ACR is used only by Photoshop. Are you opening the images in ACR in Photoshop?

Files reverting back to random saves

I'm working in Indesign CC. I've worked on a layout over the last several days and have finished several pages on the same document. then suddenly after creating a low-res pdf in acrobat my documnet reverted back to the blank document that it was on March 11 at 10:58 am. I then went to my Time Machine's hourly backup and the documents in all of those backup folders have reverted to March 11 10:58 am as well. So the work is gone on my local disk as well as my backups. How could all the files revert to a past save both locally and on several backup folders all at the same time. and more importantly can it be recovered?

Are you sure you saved to the same folder?
If they're gone, they're probably gone for good. I make a habit of periodically saving a new version with a new name, usually each time I'm about to make a major change, or when I start a new editing session, so I have both an easy way to abandon a set of changes and a ready backup path in case of disaster.

Cannot save in illustrator file reverts back to an earlier save!

I can't seem to save properly in Illustrator. After I've saved the file when I close it it sometimes opens back up into a earlier saved version of the file.

If on a server: try saving to your desktop, then do an information on the file (Command I on MAC, Right Click properties on PC) to check what time/date this was saved. Keep an eye on this, as this should help you troubleshoot what is going on. You may have a server problem that is putting the old file back on.
Check to see if the control panel version Que is on, most people disable this including myself.
If this is just a global color that is reverting, let us know, as that is caused by a different reason.

Keynote reverts back to 3.0.2

Updated my computer today and - all of the sudden all of my keynote files are now associated with 3.0.2 and want me to get iwork 06. I've got iwork 08 and never had version 3.0.2. What happened?
I've already read "Topic : Keynote 3.03 and 4.01" and it does nothing, I've tried on different files, everything.
When I try to associate the file with 4.0.2 it recognizes it. The only way it will keep it is if I go under the general and click the "locked" box. I don't want to do this with every file.
When I tell it to open all files with 4.0.2 I get this message: "Are you sure you want to change all similar documents to open with the application 'Keynote'? This change will apply to all documents with extention '.key'" When I click contintue - the file reverts back to 3.0.2.
What I really hacked about - I'VE NEVER OWNED 3.0.2. - Why is it my default? Where did it come from?
Tell me how to fix this, please.

PLEASE HELP!!!
Every time I save my keynote files they revert back to iWork '06 version (3.0.2).
I DON'T EVEN USE THAT VERSION.
Can I delete it without messing up my computer? THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE!!!
Now every keynote file I have to manually change, after every time I save it.

Old Illustrator file, revised to new, saved to pdf, reverting back to old Illustrator file

After making a new Illustrator file from an old one, then saving it as a pdf, the new Illustrator file reverts back to old one. I have been using the pdf to make the Illustrator file again (luckily I've saved it as editable) but I don't always want to add this extra procedure. Does anyone have this issue or any clues on how this happens and how to fix the problem?

when you made your changes and then saved as, you saved your changes to a new file. your original file closes without saving and the open file in illustrator is the new one (in your case the PDF).
evertime you save as you are making a new file without affecting the old file.
you should first save your changes and then save as. but after the save as, the opened file will no longer be the original file.
if you do a Save As Copy. then you will be saving a new file which will be closed and your original file will remain open.

Some UTF8 files revert to western encoding when reopened.

I'm using Dreamweaver CS3, and when I built an application I forgot to ensure that the encoding was set to UTF8.
I went through all my files and changed the encoding from western european to UTF8. This was fine until I noticed that SOME files revert back to western european encoding when re-opened.
No matter how many times I change the encoding back ( using ctrl+j and choosing the dropdown in page properties ) and save the files, it STILL reverts back to western when opened.
This only seems to happen on certain files, and some are fine. I've tried creating a new file in UTF8 and copying the contents of the old one into it. The problem persists so I'm thinking that the file may contain odd characters that are causing Dreamweaver to 'intelligently' change the encoding.
Any ideas are welcomed. Many thanks.

I use lots of files that don't have headers, such as PHP includes which include snippets of HTML.
CS3 seems to look for special characters in the file and IF there are UTF-8 encoded chracters in the file AND it is saved as such, it'll remember that when reopening it. However, if there are NO UTF-8 characters in there and you save it as UTF-8, then CS3 will revert back to another encoding (western or some such...), regardless of the setting in preferences (for files without explicit headers).
This is a pain because some of my PHP includes may or may not contain Korean characters (multi-language site) and if I do add them, then I need to remember to switch the encoding to UTF-8 manually. It's just annoying that the global preferences, AREN'T!
I'll be upgrading to CS4 this week so I'll let you know if it's an issue there too.

2006 iMac running 10.4 OS. I copied files to ext. drive. Put in 10.6 disc and did a clean install (format) of 10.6. Copied data from ext. drive back to Mac. I didn't get all the files. CAN I REVERT BACK TO THE 10.4 OS SO I CAN COPY MY DATA PROPERLY?

How did you copy files to the external drive, and what files did you copy? Did you drag and drop in the Finder? Use a clone utility? What files did not successfully copy?
If you reformatted the drive as part of your install, then you won't be able to recover any files from the drive. Reverting back to (reinstalling) 10.4 will not help you.
Do you have a complete-drive backup of your old system?

Instructions on the Apple site to do this but it didn't work. How do I revert back to the original set up? All files still on local hard disk

I moved the itunes folder to an external hard drive but it didn't work, so I want to revert back to original set up. All the files are still on the local hard disk. I have tried to reverse the steps I used previously but when I try to play a track it says original file could not be found. If I navigate to the itunes music folder and select a track direct from there it opens itunes and plays so I know the music is still on the computer I just can't figure out how to get it to play direct from itunes.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

How to revert back previous working files in InDesign CS6?

I have suddenly replace wrong working files, how to revert back previous working files in InDesign CS 6?
OS Mac version: 10.10.3
InDesign CS6 version

This feature does not exist in InDesign. You're best hope is that you have a backup of the previous file. Moving forward, you might want to try a free product called Radish that allows you to save versions and revert back to previous versions when needed. Here's a blog post I wrote about the product Story Versioning in InCopy | InCopySecrets.

How Do I create a Hyperlink back to a keynote file on a certain slide

In my Keynote presentation I have a demo on (say for example) slide 30 which contains a hyperlink to another keynote file, at the end of this keynote file I want to create a hyperlink back to the original presentation from slide 30 or 31. Any ideas?

Tulse is, as usual, absolutely correct. The only way to accomplish what you want is to divide your "main" presentation into two parts (per your example between Slides # 30 and #31) and then Hyperlink to and back from the "third part."
To make this as seamless as possible to your audience, add an extra slide after #30, before #31, and as the first and last slides of your "third" (insert) presentation. Make all of these full-screen black (just create a black rectangle that exceeds the borders of the slide). Dissolve into or out of each of these black slides as appropriate. Then use the black rectangles at the end of part-one and the insert as the "triggers" for the Hyperlink to the next part. You will need to Click on these at the appropriate times to initiate the Hyperlink transitions. (Sadly, Hyperlinks cannot occur Automatically.)
The result will be a fade-to-black (Click to Hyperlink) fade-from-black at each of the transitions.
Good luck.

File name reverts back to original file name from camera

In iPhoto I changed all the names of my pictures from what the camera assigned them. I can see the title on each picture. Then when I go to attach the picture to an email it reverts back to original name from the camera.
It does the same thing when I copy over to an external hard drive.
How do I get the name to change permanetly?

Sandy:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Another alternative would be to change your workflow. Upload to a folder on the desktop first and use a renaming application like R-Name to batch, sequentially rename your photos before importing into iPhoto. I use the international date format with a brief description of the shoot like this: 2008-06-15-Fathers Day-001. It may take a bit more effort at the beginning but saves a lot of headaches on down the line.
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. 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.

What would cause keynote 5.1 to stop playing slides? It reverts back to production mode.

My version of keynote on my MacBook has begun acting strange. If I say a presentation as a powerpoint it will open it and play it. If I open one saved as a keynote it will not play. It will revert back to production mode. I have a major presentation due on Monday Oct 14. I'd like to do it from my old MacBook which has served me well for many years. My other option is to save it as a powerpoint and play it on one of the agency pc laptops.

If I open one saved as a keynote it will not play. It will revert back to production mode.
Keynote will only play a presentation full screen if it has been set to do so, have you made this setting?:
Inspector > Document > Document > Automatically Play on Opening

Even via time machine the new osx lion has deleted all my latest files in iPhoto and will only revert back to an old 2009 backup?

even via time machine the new osx lion has deleted all my latest files in iPhoto and will only revert back to an old 2009 backup?... Help?!

Have you verified that the original files are missing from the Originals/Masters folder? There are time when the library might appear empty due to a damaged database file but still has the files. If you can open the library package via the Finder to see if the files are really missing or just can't be seen by iPhoto there are fixes you can try.
If the files are there make a temporary, backup copy of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Mp3 will not rename - reverts back to original file name. Any suggestions?

I have a bunch of mp3 files that I would like to rename the original file name. Itunes only allows me to change metadata, but to fix broken names and keep organized, I need to change the file name. Once I rename the file, it shows the new name, and then upon playing it, it reverts back to the original name. I do not have any locked permissions. I have parallels and tried to rename them on the windows 7 side but same effect. I tried to shut all programs off so the file was not in use. I even tried to export it as a acc file type. I am exhausted looking for a solution, this is why I am using this forum as a last ditch effort. Please help.

As far as I am aware, iTunes does not rename files (at least nto my older version I use). Yes, it will insist upon the files being in certain folders which is structured from the metadata, but the files themselves keeep whatever name you use.
I suggest this be moved to an iTunes forum (you choose for Mac or for Windows). I have never seen anybody else complain about this in the past.
One question, do you subscribe to Match? Is there anything else using these files, some third party software?
