My iBook is not saving new files.

Word is telling me file is "write protected" and other files tell me I don't have "permission" to save them. Help! Thanks

Hello,
Try repairing the disk permissions by doing the following :
To open Disk Utility, from the Applications folder, open Utilities and then double-click the Disk Utility icon.
In the column on the left, click your startup disk.
Click the First Aid Tab tab, and then click Repair Disk Permissions.Disk Utility will reset any files and folders with incorrect settings.
Hope this helps.

My hard drive is not saving new files.

Word is telling me file is "write protected" and other files tell me I don't have "permission" to save them. Help! Thanks
Okay. Ronda is right. I have a MacBook, not Pro. I have tons of harddrive space left. I ran the Repair Disk Permissions. I checked the 'get info' on the harddrive. All permissions in order. I'm away from the office and don't have an external drive to save to, or I'd try that. I'm logged in as the admin. Is my harddrive going south? I have an old version of M.Office. I'm gonna close that and try saving something else to see if it's created a conflict. It really slows the processer down. Thanks to you both. Still searching...

I figured it out. I was trying to save to a write-protected folder. duh. All is well. Thanks. Xl8

Photoshop action replacing previous photo not saving new file

I have multiple photos that I am running an action on but each photo is replacing the one before using the same file name. instead of using the original file name. So I end up with 1 edited photo!!! from the action!
This is happening using cs5 I have not encounted this before.
Any ideas?
Rob

Thanks R-Kelly
I sorted as images imported via drop box were file named !!
2012-10-15 00.13.26.jpg ,
2012-10-15 00.14.15.jpg etc
I think photoshop action could not work with the odd file naming???
So re-imported using image browser with file names image_01.jpg, image_02.jpg etc and worked
On cs5.1 on mac os x
Thanks Rob

PSE not saving edited files to the organiser

For no apparent reason my PSE 11 application seems to have developed an annoying glitch whereby part way through an editing process it stops doing as requested in the "Save" options, by not saving edited files as version sets of the original file in the Organiser. The files are saved OK to My Pictures and I then get advised that a file is available to import and I have to import each one, stack it with the original, and put the edited file on top. This is driving me nuts as I have about 1000 photos to edit. What is causing this problem? My only thoughts are that I have c.30000 picture files in the Organiser (but this hasn't caused any problems in adding new files) and that the problem seems to have arisen since I started editing files directly from within an Album.
Help

It's the first time I see that bug mentionned in PSE11, but it's an acknowledged bug in PSE12.

Config.saveNew() is not saving new config hdr id inside CZ_CONFIG_HDRS

Hi,
I am trying to create a new configuration using CIO something as below.But I see that api is returning new configuration hdr id but i dont see that id in CZ_CONFIG_HDRS table.Here is sample code inside java concurrent program.
// Create the Configuration object
Configuration config = cio.startConfiguration(cp, context);
config.completeBeforeSave();
config.saveNew();
ong headerID = config.getConfigHeaderIdLong();
long revisionID = config.getConfigHeaderRevisionLong();
cio.closeConfiguration(config);
Am I missing anything.Why this code is not saving new config hdr id inside the table CZ_CONFIG_HDRS. Please suggest if anything is missing here.
thanks,
ashok

I have done something similar and followed your approach.
The only real difference I see is that after "closeConfiguration(config)", I had these two lines:
context.releaseJDBCConnection();
context.free();
This was over a year ago and it was only a proof of concept. But I do recall that my test code was properly generating the record in CZ_CONFIG_HDRS. Perhaps these two additional lines would enforce the "commit" of the records. It might be worth a try.
Thanks,
Jason

IBooks Author not saving templates

I am not able to save an iBook Author file I am working on (.iba format) to an iBooks Author Template (.ibatemplate) via File > Save as Template. I can go in and change the extention and then see the file in the Template Chooser view, but this seems like an unusual hack AND I get no preview for the template.
Anyone else experienceing this issue.
I am on version 2.1.2 (462) on OSX 10.9.3.

The normal process involves saving so that your creation is saved to 'My Templates'. That assumes you want it to show in the template chooser.
I've never tweaked the file name suffix.

Xcode not saving source files

Hi
Has anyone else come across an issue where Xcode doesn't save source files before a build - despite setting the For Unsaved Files preference correctly?
My Java students are using Xcode 3.1.1 to create and build Java Tool projects. We've noticed that we can't modify the default source file for a newly created project, nor can we modify any new source files we add to the project UNLESS we close down and restart Xcode after adding each new file. Specifically, any edits are stored in the file buffers but these are not automatically saved to the hard disc when we trigger a build. However, once Xcode is closed and restarted, all source files in the project behave normally.
Interestingly, the problem doesn't seem to happen with Tool type projects in other languages, however, these projects by default put the source files in the top level of the project folder, whereas all Java projects put the source files one level down in a "src" sub-folder.
Has anyone else noticed these issues with Java projects? Do similar problems occur in other languages if source files are stored in sub-folders? Remember, the problem only exists for newly created files and it's resolved once Xcode is shut down and restarted - unless, of course, we need to add more files.
Anyone got any workarounds which avoid stopping and restarting Xcode?
Bob
PS: Please don't post comments saying that I should use Eclipse, Netbeans, BlueJ, etc That's not relevant to this discussion.

Thanks briyu. At least you've confirmed that I'm not going mad
As for 3.1.0, that's what the student machines are using and we have the problem there. I wonder why no one else has reported this before? Probably Xcode isn't used very much for Java.

Autocomplete is not saving new entries in forms (gmail subject exaclty)

It used to work ok - Gmail subject used to be saved, and I could reuse it with drop down list shown when writing first letters. But it stopped to save new entries. Saved before are still avialalble, but not new.
In other forms (on other sites), autocomplete is still fully operational, with saving new entries with no problem.

Since I need to send many e-mail with same subject daily, I managed this problem in some way.
I created simple html file, with only this inside:
<form method="get">
<input type="text" name="subject" size=100><input type="submit" value="save">
</form>
When I need to save new subject, I open this file (no need to be uploaded, works from hard drive), write my subject, and click save.
Then it is avialable in gmail.
Strange, stupid, but works :)

Big problem: KN08 not saving KN06 files

Hi everyone,
I have a big problem with keynote 08 (4.0.1). Antefactum: last year our department finally migrated from powerpoint (mac, obviously) to keynote (3.0.2). So I opened all our powerpoint courses and conferences in keynote and saved them as keynote files, fixed all the little problems due to conversion and happily started to use only keynote. In december we updated to Leopard and KN 08, and here started the problem: if I create new files in KN 08 everything works perfect; I can create a new presentation, save it, update it with new material and save changes. Instead, if I open one of our KN 3.0.2 presentations in KN 08 he lets me do every modification but when I try to save it as KN 08 he tells me that it’s not possible. This is pretty frustrating, because I have something like 1 Tb of presentations and I don’t need to create new ones from zero, I need to update the existing ones with new material. Anyone knows why on earth KN 08 doesn’t let me do this? I mean, I can’t believe Apple programmers didn’t notice this problem, and I don’t want to think they thought this “function” would be fine either. If it’s a bug, anyone knows how it can be fixed?
Neptune

Hi Kyn Drake,
first of all let me thank you for the answer I updated to KN 4.0.2 but the problem remains. The message I get is "impossible to save document "(filename)", or "impossible to save document "(filename)" as "(new filename)", in case I try to save it with the same name or with a different one. This happens also if I do not modify a presentation at all: that is to say, when I open one of my presentations in KN 08 the red button in the upper left corner of the window already has the dot inside, which means that the document "is not saved". If I just try to save without doing anything to the presentation it still presents the problem. It doesn't even allow me to export it as a powepoint, I tried and still it says it is impossible. I can't really understand why, and I can't think I'm the only one who has this problem ?!??

Open/Save Dialog does not show new files?

Say you are working on a logic file in a folder and you have
a few audio and movie files in that folder, and you launch
Logic and via the open/save dialog window you add a few
files to your song and in that dialog window you can see
all the files in that folder.
Then, in the Finder you add a few more files and movies to
that folder and again use the open/save dialog window to
add more files BUT the new files you added since launching
logic are NOT SHOWN in the dialog window ! ?
What's the deal with that?
Every other app can show files added since the launch of the
application, why not Logic?
PowerBook G4 1GHz Mac OS X (10.3.9)

project manager
um, yeah.
Should not need the project manager simply to see new files added to a directory in a Open/Save dialog window since last opening the app.
I did a scan, a extended scan, opened all the little turn down arrows of the
full path to the directory I knew there to be the new files and yes, Logic
shows them there in the "Project manager".
BUT Logic still does not show the files in the Open/Save dialog windows.
This is strange because even simple app like TextEdit can show
new files in it's Open/Save dialog function windows without the need of
a project manager.
I have to quit and re-launch each time to see any new files?

Text is not saved in file...WHY ?

Hi everyone,
I made a simple text editor using Swing. It has only a JTextArea as the main text processor.
I have added a File menu where I can open or save files with the JFileChooser class.
The code I am using to save data from the JTextArea to a text file say abc.txt is as below :
try
File file = new File(fname);
file.createNewFile();
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
sb.append(textPad.getText());
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter(file));
pw.write(sb.toString());
catch(IOException e) {}
The file is being created with the specified name but no text is being saved in it even though there is valid text in the JTextArea textPad.
Can anyone help me as to where the fault lies in the code ?
Thanks alot.

Hello guys,
I have the same problem but I want to use println() instead of write(). Is it possible? And furthermore, if I have write operations in a loop, does the flush() operation have to be performed after every write() or once before close? I tried both things at the same time but yet, I can't see anything to be written to the file. I haven't tried yet the write() method but I think the println() method should work just fine...
The writer I use is formed like this:
PrintWriter coordinatesPrintWriter = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(coordinatesFile)));where coordinatesFile is a File.
then in a loop I do
try
for(...)
coordinatesPrintWriter.println("A string, ctra");
coordinatesPrintWriter.flush();
coordinatesPrintWriter.flush();
coordinatesPrintWriter.close();
catch(IOException ioe)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( GraphManagerGUI.this, ioe.getMessage(), "IO ERROR", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
}But nothing is outputted to the file, although created.
Do I forget to do something? Should I close all wrapped writters? (although I don't really think this is the problem...)

AE CC 2014 Export to C4D not saving any file

I just got into CC (was using CS6) and today I wanted to export a C4D file from AE, like I have done always with AE CS6, but there seems to be a problem. I click on export, Maxon Cinema 4D Exporter, then select the folder and type the file name, click save and it closes like normal, but the file I supposedly saved, is not created anywhere. Anyone has the same issue?

Apparently the problem is with the folder I was saving the file. I saved it to another hard drive and it saves the file just fine. Is there a limitation for a folder structure?
Another issue is that the scene only includes the camera and not the solids or text layers. If I export from AE CS6 it includes all that.

Finder does not show new files, does not acualize

In Mountain Lion I realize that the finder more than once does not show the actual content of folders. Even a "start new" from the stop-dialog did not change it.
A restart of the whole system did.
Pathfinder in opposite did show the new files immediatly.
Does anyone have the same problem?
Any suggestions?
Thx.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
It's a while since i used v5 but I think this is true.
Whereas with early version of iPhoto there was a separate folder for each album, starting at v5 the app doesn;t do that. Instead the album information is stored as part of the main database file. At heart, it's a direction to the app to display certain pics together. The advantage being that a single pics can be many, many albums with no wasted disk space.
