No file-type extensions appear when exporting files to a different format

Hello.
I have been having this issue for a while on both Pages and Numbers.
Whenever I export a file to another format (e.g., pdf, txt, doc, or xls) the file appears WITHOUT any extension at all. I have to go to the file, click on the file name and type in the proper extension at the end of the filename.
Frankly, I'm tired of doing this.
Does anyone know of some way to fix this?
Thanks for your help.

Try to run Pages from an other user account.
If it behaves flawlessly, we will know that the culprit is in your original user account.
In such case, most of the time, the wrongdoer is the preferences file :
<startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Pages.pl ist
Quit Pages,
move the file on the Desktop
restart Pages.
If it behaves well, you will know the culprit. Move it to the trash and work … until the next corruption.

  • How to filter the file type and size when uploadind files into APEX

    Hi,
    I was wondering how I can do to validate the size of a file, before moving it to my table ? I'd like to filter the file type, but for this one, I think I can use regular expressions in a validation process.
    I don't know if there is a way to read the file size even before sending it into the temporary file table.
    Thank you
    Leinad

    Hello Leinad,
    AFAIK, you have to create an APEX validation (PL/SQL returns Boolean or Returns error text), which will query the file details from apex_flow_files table. Here you can get filetype and size etc.
    So just validate and if any validation fails, then delete the file from apex_flow_files and riase error message.
    Regards,
    Hari
    P.S. Please note that, if there are other apex validations on your page and if they fail, still apex will load the file into apex_flow_files table. So it's good idea to create a validation (PL/SQL) which will fire (condition) when inline validation errors occured. Make sure that this is the LAST validation on your page in sequence. And here you can write code to delete the file from apex_flow_files table.

  • Problems appearing when exporting excel file into numbers file

    Hello,
    I have a Problem, need HELP!!
    I have an excel file with graphics, and data are written on graphs: these data are percentages. When I export my excel file on numbers (becomes therefore a numbers file), my problem appears: When I have for example 24% on a graph, it becomes 0.24 and I can't find the way to write it 24% again.
    Also I have a problem with graphics titles: when I export the excel file into numbers, graphics title are not correctly centered anymore and I cannot find the way to fix them correctly...
    Thanks a lot!!!!

    It seems that only sectorial charts may display percent.
    Also I have a problem with graphics titles: when I export the excel file into numbers, graphics title are not correctly centered anymore and I cannot find the way to fix them correctly...
    Sounds as if you are in cases where the charts are imported as a single graphic block, not as different components.
    Maybe you will find explanation in:

  • CFHTTP problem - is file-type extension required

    Hello,
    Running CF8 on Win2003/IIS. 
    I have the following simple code to check a value from another server:
    <cfhttp method="get" URL= "http://server.somewhere.com/websvc/util?a=doHTMLRequest&event=workgroupstat"   throwonerror="yes">
    <cfset theContent = "#cfhttp.FileContent#">
    <cfoutput>#theContent#</cfoutput>
    I have also tried:
    <cfhttp
      method="get"
      url="http://server.somewhere.com/websvc/util">  (with and without the ? after the word util)
      <cfhttpparam name="a" type="URL" value="doHTMLRequest">
      <cfhttpparam name="event" type="URL" value="workgroupstat">
    </cfhttp>
    The URL that is shown above returns nothing when using it within CFHTTP. If I change the URL to http://www.google.com or whatever I get the code of that page assigned to my theContent variable as expected 
    From a browser, the URL used in the cfhttp function above works fine. The request returns a simple HTML file with the following code from which I need to pull the agents_available data:
    <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Agents Available</TITLE></HEAD><BODY><H2>workgroup:Chat</H2><H2>agents_available:1</H2><H2>agent s_logged_in:1</H2></BODY></HTML>
    I cannot understand why I can call any other page from the internet (and our network) and put it into my theContent variable but I can't call this one.  Could it be something in the structure of the URL??
    I'm thinking that the CFHTTP function cannot properly format the request without the file-type extension.
    Any ideas are appreciate.  Regards, Jerry

    Hi Ian,
    I tried your suggestions.  Used Firefox with FireBug and LiveHTTP Headers and nothing appears out of the ordinary except the Content-Length which is always 0.  It's not being redirected.  The response is 200 OK.
    i.e.:
    cfhttp.errorDetail: 
    cfhttp.text:  YES
    cfhttp.statusCode  200 OK
    cfhttp.MIMEType  Unable to determine MIME type of file.
    cfhttp.header  HTTP/1.1 200 OK Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=88760F22E9FA8717DE807D6F1F758E9A; Path=/websvc Date: Thu, 04 Jun 2009 17:04:37 GMT Content-Length: 0 Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0 X-Powered-By: ASP.NET
    But when the URL is called directly from a browser the Content-Length is not 0.  It is 148 bytes.
    I'm using:
    <cfset Mokrynski.PageName = "_">
    <cfsetting showdebugoutput="no">
    <!---cfhttp   method="get"   url="http://server.somewhere.com/websvc/util">;  
    <cfhttpparam name="a" type="URL" value="doHTMLRequest">  
    <cfhttpparam name="event" type="URL" value="workgroupstat">
    </cfhttp--->
    <cfhttp   method="get"   url="http://server.somewhere.com/websvc/util?a=doHTMLRequest&event=workgroupstat" />
    <cfset agentCount = (cfhttp.fileContent)>
    <cfoutput>#agentCount#</cfoutput>
    <cfoutput> <p>cfhttp.errorDetail:  #cfhttp.errorDetail#</p>
    <p>cfhttp.text:  #cfhttp.text#</p>
    <p>cfhttp.statusCode  #cfhttp.statusCode#</p>
    <p>cfhttp.MIMEType  #cfhttp.MIMEType#</p>
    <p>cfhttp.header  #cfhttp.header#</p>
    </cfoutput>
    Note that there are two methods I've used - 1 used commentd out in this code.  If i change the url in the cfhttp function to ANYTHING else I get the expected result - goog.com, our site, cnn.com, whomever but not from this URL which clearly works from a browser.
    Thanks, Jerry

  • Error when exporting file from LR5.2 - file created

    After updating to LR5.2, I receive an error when exporting files to another disk drive.  a file is created, but a warning appears "Unable to Export:  "An internal error has occurred: Win32 API error 2 ("The system cannot find the file specified.") when calling ShellExecuteExW from AgWorkspace.shellExecute".  I also have CC iunstalled for other applications, but originally installed LR5 as a standalone Adobe application.  I tried removing the program and reinstalling through CC, with no change in this behavior.

  • When I try to same an image under the command 'save as' it will only let me save as file types 'firefox document' or 'all files' and when I try to look at them later they dont work. How can I save an image as the same file type it is on the web site?!

    When I try to save an image under the command 'save as' it will only let me save as file types 'firefox document' or 'all files' and when I try to look at them later they dont work. How can I save an image as the same file type it is on the web site?!
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I updated to one of the firefox versions (Not sure which one it was)

    Thanks Alex, but sadly I already tried that. Neither .docx or .xlsx files show up in the content list. They both show as a Chrome HTML document so changing how Firefox addresses those doesn't help since it thinks its the same type of file. I don't think I can manually add files into the "Content Type" left side nav.

  • Lightroom 4 - Slowdown when exporting files

    Hi.
    I'v been experiencing some slowdown on my PC when exporting files from LR4. No matter the size, or if it's .jpg or .TIFF... it always gives me some frezzes (mouse etc)
    I have a high end machine, and i don't think that's the problem....
    Does anyone have a similar problem or a solution?

    None either... CPU always at 0% before exporting.
    But i think i found the problem, it's related to my HDD. I was reading some articles, and decided to use my HDD as AHCI instead of IDE.
    I had to modify some regs to install the drivers, but after that the slowdown where almost inexistent...
    Now i need to know where the problem is, if it's with HDD or motherboard..

  • .pdf File Type Extension reverts to nothing after restart

    Adobe reader works correctly however after I restart the computer the Default File Type Extension resets to nothing for .pdf extensions.
    I have reinstalled Adobe reader, done sfc /scannow, used a registry repair, manually changed the file extension type through windows.
    Again everything works, and after I change the file extension type it will stay changed until restarting the computer then it reverts to no known file type extension and I have to right click open with.
    Thoughts on this? Thanks in advance.

    If you look at your PDF files with Windows Explorer (after the extension has "disappeared"), what does it show in the Type column?

  • Aperture 3.1.2 When exporting files to Finder is creating a folder for each file, that means export 200 files is creating 200 folders for each files. Does anyone knows how to fix this. Thanks

    Aperture 3.1.2 When exporting files to Finder is creating a folder for each file, that means export 200 files is creating 200 folders for each files. Does anyone knows how to fix this. Thanks

    No. This is NOT true. I've been battling with this for a couple hours.
    I choose Export>Versions
    choose
    Subfolder Format: Project Name
    no custom subfolder
    Name Format: Current Version Name.
    Aperture creates project folders for each image and names them Projects1, Projects2, Projects3 etc.
    To be sure, I have no project named Projects
    x
    This particular Aperture library has 16 projects. you can see in the screen grab it's created more than 30 folders
    If I uncheck the Subfolder, that is say NONE, I just get images and images and images, not in their project folders (of course, because I've said NONE, so why would it put them in project folders?)
    I just want to export the entire library and have the versions placed in folders named by the projects from which they came.... ez enough, no?

  • Name of files do not appear in the files section

    I've been using Adobe Audition 3.0 for three years now and it has been FANTASTIC.  (on a 3 year old Dell with the Vista OS).
    However, something quirky happened this morning that is frustrating....when I drag an audio file onto my workstation, like I always do, the actual wave appears on my timeline, BUT, the name of the file  no longer appears in the files section to the left of the workstation.
    I've re-started my compter several times to no avail.  Has anybody else ever experienced this problem?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!   I have an impending deadline due for a large project  and this sudden disappearance of file names has rendered my Audition virtually unusable.
    Thanks again.

    There are some buttons right at the bottom of the Files window under the Sort By box that allow you to show or hide different file types. Perhaps one of those has become unclicked.

  • Can I change the default 'File Type' for PL/SQL Source File to '*.prc' ?

    Want to change the 'default' extension for PL/SQL source to '*.prc'
    When navigating 'File' / 'Save As', and selecting the 'File Type' list box,
    The default 'File Type' for PL/SQL Source File is '*.pls'.
    Can I change the default 'File Type' for PL/SQL Source File to '*.prc' ?
    I have followed , 'Tools', 'Preferences' , 'File Types' and added '.prc' as 'Sql Script' file type, because (PL/SQL Source) is not present in the list.

    You can certainly overwrite the 'Save As' extension as you are saving the file. I have added an ER for more control over this functionality.

  • The words in the .docx (MSWord 2010) file are getting merged when the file is transferred to another computer for printing. What could be the reason?

     The words in my .docx file are getting merged when the file is transferred to another computer for printing. For eg. the sentence "rate of success ......"  is displayed as "rateof success" on the other computer. What could
    be the reason for this? How to solve this issue?  

    Have you checked that the document is using the exact same font on both machines? If the second machine doesn't have the font installed that's used in the original document on the first machine, Word will pick the closest matching font, and that may
    display slightly differently.

  • I am sending a single-page poster in Illustrator to a commercial printer. There are several placed graphics and I want to choose the correct file-type to keep my Illustrator file nice and small.

    I am sending a single-page poster in Illustrator to a commercial printer. There are several placed graphics and I want to choose the correct file-type to keep my Illustrator file nice and small.

    Printers like PDFs, but you should consult with the print vendor before you save the file in any particular format.  Each vendor is different and have an established workflow.  They may not accept JPGs.  If the poster prints offset, you will need to supply the appropriate resolution per their request or what they require. If the poster is large format or grand format, then they will or should know what resolution is appropriate.  However, large format inkjet only requires 144-150ppi at 100% final size.  Try to get in the habit of consulting with the print vendor early on so you end up supplying what is needed.
