New Preview Version in Lion - Unable to save as Tiff, any suggestions?

Hello fellow Mac folks,
I just upgraded a MacBook Pro to the Lion OS....
Before Lion, I would use Preview (5.0.3 in SnowLeopard) to get my work expense report receipts ready for submission.  I would open PDF version of the actual report, save it as a TIFF file and then open that TIFF file in NeoOffice and bring in the actual receipts (which I had scanned and saved as TIFF files).  Once I had the complete TIFF version, I would then export it to PDF and send it on over to our Finance folks.
I tried the same thing today in Lion with Preview and noticed that I can no longer save the PDF file to a TIFF file.
I tried to pull in PDF versions of the actual receipts to the PDF report and then save but that wasn't successful either (hasn't been since I upgraded to SnowLeopard).
Any suggestions on how I can get around this?
Your help is most appreciated!
Regards,
Vicki T.

Thanks Terence....that solved my problem!
Can't wait to get my hands on the Mac OS Lion Missing Manual for just such things :-)
Regards,
Vicki

    Hello cheech07,
    The following article contains directions that can help get you back on track with iTunes. I'd recommend picking up at 'Part 5' of the 'External drive' section.

  • I have an Epson scanner that is apparently no longer supported  because it is a PowerPC app.  It's a very good scanner that worked fine until I upgraded to OS Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro.  Any suggestions on how I can continue to use it?

  • Who has maxed out their space on their 160?  How much space can itunes store on a MacBook?  should I just shift "jazz" to a new iPod and keep rock on my current 160?  any suggestions?

    Who has maxed out their space on their 160?  How much space can itunes store on a MacBook?  should I just shift "jazz" to a new iPod and keep rock on my current 160?  any suggestions?

    I have not filled the iPod Classic 160 GB.  I have most of my music and a few movies for traveling on that one.  Before I bought it, I had a 20 GB that was always full.  Now, what I do is have rock music on a shuffle that I use for biking or running.  Audio Books are on an iPod Touch.  The 20 GB unit is no longer used (given away) and replaced with the 160 that holds just about everything else.
    The MacBook is limited by the size of the hard disk.  Many people with have their entire iTunes library on an external USB or Firewire hard drive and have iTunes map to that.  Remember that this is not truly a backup (if the library is only on one drive, it is not a backup, nor should the iPod/iPhone/iPad/etc. be considered a backup)
    If you have the means to have another device, I would agree that splitting your music by genre on each device is the way to go.  I've known people that sort their music on devices by artist, album, etc.  As long as you find a way that works for you.

    New Kindle recognizes my airpot network but authentication fails. Any suggestions?

    Have you tried .....
    Settings>WiFi>Network Name - tap the blue arrow - and tap forget this network. Restart the iPad connect to your network, reenter the password and see if works now.
    Settings>General>Reset Netowrk Settings. Restart the iPad, connect to your network, reenter your password and try again.
    Turn WiFi Off, restart the iPad, turn WiFi on again, select your network, reenter the password and try again.
    Finally - maybe a dumb question - are you entering the correct password?

  • Unable to save a tiff file (save over)

    I have rendered some images with a 3d program and saved as tiffs.
    I will open the images in Photoshop and select SAVE. A message states "unable to save, the file is already open or in use". As a result, I will have to save a copy and rename it. What is weird is that I am unable to throw away the original TIFF. When I empty the trash a dialog will say "items are in use and can not be thrown away." Any ideas?

    There seems to be a problem, just now, with the USB 3 ports on the new MBP's supporting eternal USB 3 drives. Some people have no luck at all - can't even recognize the drive - and some are reporting USB 2 speeds (those who drives are recognized). I'd call a dealer such as LaCie or OWC to see if they have USB 3 drives that actually work with MBP's with USB 3 ports. You may have to wait for a software/firmware update.

  • I have an old iMac that won't boot up anymore.  I have the OS X install disks but I can't get it to boot from these disks.  No need to save anything.  Any suggestions?

    I have an old iMac.  Not sure of the operating system but the install disks say OS X.  The computer will not boot anymore and all I keep getting is to restart and when I do I keep getting the same message.  I do have the install disks but I can't get the computer to install, or for that matter, read the disks.  I would like to rebuild the computer from these disks so that I can continue to use this computer.  There is no need to save anything on the computer as I backed it up months ago.  Any suggestions as to how I can save this computer and not have to recycle it?

    Really need to know what version of OS X it is currently running, and what version you are trying to install.

  • How can I empty anApple e-mail program mailbox.  I have thousands of message I wish to delete, but am unable to do so.  Any suggestions?

    How can I empty an Apple e-mail program mailbox.  I have thousands of message I wish to delete, but am unable to do so.  I open the e-mails on my laptop, so I don't usually need to open them on the iMac.  Whenever I use select all, and the move to trash, they always seem to reappear again.  Prospectively, I know I can change the e-mail settings in preferences, but that doesn't help get rid of what is already there.  Any suggestions?

    You mention 2 computers. Not sure how one relates to the other. Are the messages on one and not the other?
    Are they in the Inbox, or another local folder you created? If a local folder, delete the folder.
    Do you have anything used to sync messages between the 2 computers? If so, disable it.
    Select the messages and choose Delete instead of moving to the trash.
    If that doesn't work, rebuild the mailbox, quit Mail and reopen and try again.
    If all fails, delete the account from the computer. Since it is POP, when you re-add the account, there won't be any messages to download.

    Not sure what adapter cable you have but if your new machine is a mid 2011 iMac you need this cable. Not a replica of the cable you need the adapter cable Apple sells:

  • Need new computer for high graphic gaming without breaking the bank, any suggestions?

    Hi I've asked before about upgrading my current laptop, which the only bad thing about is the graphics card.  Now I have given up on that (unless you do know a way) and am searching for a new computer, laptop or desktop, it doesn't matter to me.  But I just need one that will be able to play high graphic games and costs as low as possible.  So if you have any suggestions please leave the name of it or a link to it, thanks.

    What's your highest limit possible to spend?
    Gaming on a laptop is a bad idea and a complete waste of money because PC games requires almost yearly upgrades just to keep up with the gaming requirements.
    My suggestion for gaming on a laptop is nothing below $1500-$2000. Anything below that is a waste of money and you will be having to buy a new laptop every other year just to play games.
    The lowest that I would even recommend is this Asus.
