Preview´s "save as" option faulty ?! (documents folder vs. last folder used

Hi
I found several discusssions around this subject, but none with a bugfix / solution. It´d be nice if someone could point me to the solution if there indeed is one.
Here´s the deal: I generate bills from my database as a pdf. Some customers want the pdf per email as well as the paper version.
So my workflow generating several bills one after another, is this
-- hit command-p for the first bill, the pdf - document appears in a preview window
-- hit command-shift-s "save as"
-- select my bills folder (several levels deep tucked away), give a unique file name
-- hit Enter to save the pdf
-- hit enter to print the document.
so far so good, that works as flawless under 10.5 as under 10.4.
next bill:
-- hit command-p for the 2nd bill, the pdf - document appears in a preview window
-- hit command-shift-s "save as"
-- * under 10.4: my bills folder is already preselected; click on one of the other bills to get an almost correct filename, adjust filename and Enter, Enter, ready, next bill
-- * under 10.5: documents folder is preselcted (***?) -- select my bills folder *(i.e. click on my_user > commercial docs > bills > client xyz > july 2008* > click on one of the other bills to get an almost correct filename, adjust filename and Enter, Enter, ready, next bill
This getting away from the keyboard using the mouse (yeah I know, I still could use the keyboard, but that´s nonetheless manymany key presses) to navigate 5 levels deep to a folder really costs time and gets on my nerves...
any idea (and I really don´t want to buy $35 default folder for a job, that worked flawlessly under 10.4)??
I have no problem opening a plist file and do some editing; any other idea would be greatly appreciated...
thx
BTW: Textedit doesn´t show this behaviour.

hmm thanks.
I shied away all this time from automator, simply because I´m lazy as ****
After having looked into it for all of 2 seconds, one questions. - It looks as if Automator manipulates a file that is already on disk.
That document, which I have open in preview, is "not yet" a file. It has been generated by my DB and sent to preview, but there´s no file on disk. - Don´t know if I explain myself correctly.
No idea how to manipulate this "entity", or make it do anything with automator.

How do I get toolbars for Mozilla in Windows 8? I can't print an email, save it to a document folder. FRUSTRATING!!!

Where are the toolbars on Mozilla for Windows 8? There are no navigation, print, save as options. Have read several articles online, but when I right click on a blank space on a tab bar - no toolbar options show.

By the way, if you are in a pop-up window where you are prevented from showing toolbars, the keyboard shortcut for print is Ctrl+p and the keyboard shortcut to save a page is Ctrl+s. To open a new (normal) window, try Ctrl+n.

How to create a document folder using ListData.svc

Hi All,
I've recently been put on a project where I need to use the REST services (ListData.svc) to retrieve and add documents to the document library. It all has been smooth sailing until I hit the point where I want to save a document in a path that doesn't exist.
I get an error if I try to save a file where the folder structure doesn't exist. I then went about it a different way trying to create the folder structure first. This also didn't work and I get an error message saying that the entity type is marked with the
MediaEntry attribute but no save stream was set for the entity. Not too sure what set for the save stream if I'm just adding a folder.
So my question is can a file be added to a folder structure that doesn't exist where it automatically creates the folders. If not can the service create folders?
Some sample code I've been using:
var folder = new SampleDocumentLibraryItem();
folder.Name = "Sample";
folder.Title = "Sample";
folder.ContentType = "Folder";
folder.Path = "/sample/folder1/folder2";
spContext.AddToSampleDocumentLibrary(folder);
spContext.SaveChanges();
Thanks in advance,
Damo

Hi All,
Finally managed to figure this one out. For anyone who needs source on how to create a document folder. Some sample source is below...
var folder = new DocumentLibraryItem();
folder.Name = "Folder Name";
folder.Title = "Folder Name";
folder.ContentType = "Folder";
folder.Path = path;
spContext.AddtoDocumentLibrary(folder);
spContext.SetSaveStream(folder, stream, false, folder.ContentType, folder.Path + folder.Name + "|0x0120009BCC19899CEBC6468FF4EEAC7B8CF4F5"
spContext.SaveChanges();
So the important differences in the code above. The content type of the object and stream MUST be set to "Folder". I'm not sure why but you still need to set the save stream to be a valid stream even though you're only adding a folder. So just keep the stream
open and then pass "true" to close it when you actually save the file. The other important element as noted from the URL's in the previous comments is you need to add a "|" + Content Type ID of a folder. You'll be able to get this ID by visiting the rest service
for an existing document library and view source to see the actual content type id for a folder.
Thanks everyone for your help,
Damo

Need to know how to allow mail to be sent to my Hosted Sharepoint 2013 site's documents folder/ Using CRD 7 reporting

I have gotten as far as adding a new app, naming the folder and going into CRD, for the report we need online and attempted to enter the settings information for our sharepoint site. The issue is no matter how I enter the credentials it will not authorize
and finish the connection. We have tried a couple of different things when it comes to the user name and domain line. we tried:
corporate\username;
corporate-traffic.com\username;
[email protected]..
we are trying to figure out the correct way to enter this information, mainly what the domain name should be since Sharepoint 2013 is all cloud based.
My issue is when I get to entering credentials none of my admins credentials work... I think it may be the domain name that is throwing it off. I keep getting the error: server was unable to process request ---> Access is denied. (Exception
From HRESULT: 0x80070005 ((E_ACCESSDENIED))
So can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this error and enable the report to email to my sharepoint site documents folder?
Just to clarify...
I need the correct domain info per office 365's Sharepoint to enter the info into our report options on CRD seven report. And how we can enable SMTP to our documents folder on our SharePoint site.

I asked Christian Steven's Support staff about this and they came out with a fix to allow us to do exactly what I asked in the first post.
We then had an issue with an error saying Crystal Reports couldn't find the rasauditingw.dll. After a few months of going back and forth they finally looked deeper into the issue and informed me other businesses are having the same issue with the add in
they designed. They still claim it is not there software but Crystal Reports software that is the issue.
Just to clarify, the error only appeared after the add in was put in place. Anyways, after they dug some more the following post was the end game.
"The development team was finally able to get into this issue (seems other businesses are seeing this same issue now). It was in fact an issue with SAP Business Objects and where it was looking for the rasauditingw.dll.
****WARNING THIS IS DONE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!****
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGES TO YOUR PROGRAMS OR SYSTEM THIS FIX MAY CAUSE
BACKUP YOUR SERVER OR TAKE A SNAP SHOT (VM) BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING
We copied the rasauditngw.dll file into the system32 folder and the sysWOW64 folder and then renamed the original rasauditingw.dll to rasauditingw.dll.bak (Original file in this directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise
XI 4.0\win32_x86).
So far so good. We have not seen any errors in the last couple of days since the fix. I hope this helps others who run into this mystery problem. Christen Steven was gracious enough to dig into this problem and quell my frustrations and issues with the
"crd.exe - Entry Point Not Found" error" "
We haven't seen any issue with our CRD server since we moved the copies of that .dll file over into our sys32 folder and sysWOW64 folder on the CRD server (our server where the Christian Steven software resides).

I want to save image in current document folder

When i open multiple document in photoshop
i want to save that files in photoshop eps format in open document location
thats means i want save images where i take images from

I created a folder on my Desktop called "screens" then launched Terminal and entered this command:
defaults write com.apple.screencapture location /Users/francine/Desktop/screens/
After entering the command hit return. I then restarted the computer and now all screenshots are put in the "screens" folder. If you want to use a different folder you just need to put the path in the command. The easy way to get an accurate path, without depending on your ability to type flawlessly, is type the command, then after typing the space following "location" just drag and drop the folder you want to use into Terminal. The path will automagically be filled in, hit the return key, then either restart or log out and back in (simply relaunching Finder won't do it).

Can you change the iDVD default save location in the Documents folder?

This may be a stupid question, but I've looked through the preferences and searched through the forums and online in general, but it seems like that's such a basic function and I can't find anything on it!

For new projects when you go to same you should see the save window which, if you expand it, will allow you to save anywhere you would like. For existing projects you can do a save as and use the Save as window to change the location. The screenshot is typical of a Save As or Save window:

Office 2013 applications cannot be made to show the "Documents" folder when opening and saving files

(Windows Server 2012R2 and Windows 8.1 PRO)
We are redirecting the user's "Documents" folder to the network (using Folder Redirection). The OS hides this fact however, and most applications simply see the "Documents" folder when opening or saving files, including Office 2003.
Office 2013 however displays the actual path, which in this case is:
\\sever1\redirect$\username\documents
Even if you forcibly set the "Default local file location:" in the Options Save area to the 'Documents' folder in, say, Word, Word immediately converts the local path to the network path.
Is there anyway to get Office 2013 to follow the virtual path? All of other apps follow it and expose the users only to "Documents".
Thank you so much.
Dana

There's nothing in my FAQ concerning screen savers, so I'm unsure why you decided to take that approach. From your description, it looks like you only tried a few of the suggestions before throwing in the towel. That's fine, it's your call.
I don't have the problems you described with 10.4.7. Usually when folks have problems after an update, these are caused by either installing an update on an already-corrutped system or they've installed third-party applications or hardware that have been rendered incompatible by the update.
Before installing software updates, you may wish to consider the advice in my "Installing Software Updates" FAQ. Taking the steps therein before installing an update often helps avert problems and gives you a fallback position in case trouble arises.
Good luck!

Simple question: I want to use iCloud as a back up disk for my documents folder. How can I do this? If I cannot do this, why am I paying for access to "the cloud?"

iCloud does not provide general file storage or backup, so you cannot back up your Documents folder using it. You will need to find a third-party alternative - this page examines some options (some are free):

iCloud at basic level, with 5GB is storage, is free: you only pay anything if you want to increase the storage space.

Post the PDF files to a web site. The browse to them in Safari on the iPad. When you Open the files specify the Open to occur in Adobe Reader. Then you can have/Save them in your Documents folder on the iPad. An iPad has limited access to files otherwise.

Weird delays opening files related to Mobile Documents folder

This is a very weird situation. With iCloud enabled, I get a weird delay when opening files.
What happens:
I open basically any sort of file (word, pages, zip file, etc).
I will get the spinning beachball for 5-10 seconds and cannot interact with the program in any way.
The following appears in the System Log:
10/23/11 8:39:41.312 PM librariand: changing log level to 5
10/23/11 8:39:41.526 PM librariand: collection does not match configured AppleID ([email protected]), removing existing collection

10/23/11 8:39:53.114 PM librariand: looks like mobile documents are really disabled
In addition, each time this happens it seems to create an additional "Mobile Documents" folder in ~/Library/, see below:
Mobile Documents
Mobile Documents.delete.Sun Oct 23 20/39/41 2011
Mobile Documents.delete.Sun Oct 23 20/39/41 2011
Mobile Documents.delete.Sun Oct 23 20/40/38 2011
Mobile Documents.delete.Sun Oct 23 20/49/10 2011
Mobile Documents.delete.Sun Oct 23 20/49/10 2011
This issue occurs whether or not I have "Documents & Data" selected for sync in iCloud preferences.
Interestingly enough, if I immediately open another file after this occurs, the issue does not happen again right away. However, if I wait about two minutes and open one, it does occur every time.
(Note: My acount name and email address have been replaced with "username" but the log is otherwise unaltered)

I have the exact same problem. It's been driving me crazy ever since I "upgraded" to Lion. I finally traced it to iCloud and the Mobile Documents folder using Console, which lead me here.
Any time I launch Pages, QuickTime, or TextEdit (TextEdit, really?), the first file I try to open gives me the spinning beachball of death for about 10 seconds before I can do anything.
I did numerous searches regarding the spinning beach ball of death in relation to those apps and found nothing germaine before I specifically searched for "collection does not match configured AppleID." This makes me think that a lot of other people are having this problem who just haven't discovered this thread.
I will try disabling "Documents & Data" but an actual fix would be greatly appreciated. "It just works" has not applied to many aspects of iCloud. I thought MobileMe had its issues, but iCloud is a mess in my personal experience, well beyond this issue. I appreciate the potential and am clinging to some faith in Apple, but Lion and iCloud have been REALLY testing my patience. Snow Leopard was a rock. This all seems like beta software hastily ported from iOS.

Missing Documents folder

Hope this is the correct forum. I just had a data transfer take place -- the contents of my old mac mini with Tiger OS transferred to a new mac mini with Snow Leopard as OS. When I open my Documents folder all that's in there is a subfolder called Microsoft User Data. All my personal documents have disappeared. Please help!

From the admin account, navigate to the root level "Users" folder using Finder. This folder should have at least two folders in it, a home folder for your admin account with that account's short name, & one named "Shared." Are there are any other folders in "Users" not inside either of these two? If so, there is now more than one user account on the Mac & the other one may be the equivalent of what was your account on the other Mac.
If not, take the two Macs back to the store & ask them to explain what they did & why they did not transfer all your files.

hi,

u2018ACO_SUPERu2019 is the only PFCG object for working with ACLs in SAP Easy Document Management.
PFCG roles (objects) and ACLs are independent of each other. If both PFCG objects and ACLs are maintained, the system takes both of them into account, but PFCG roles are given preference.
To be able to use object-related authorizations (ACLs) in SAP Easy Document Management, you have to carry out the following steps:
1.      Create a PFCG role or use an existing one
The PFCG role ensures access to document management. The system first checks the PFCG roles of a user. If the user has authorization for document management, the system carries out the check for ACLs.
2.      Assign user to role
3.      In SAP Easy Document Management you define the administrator authorizations for a folder or document under SAP Properties on the Authorizations tab page with Create Admin Authorization. These authorizations allow the user to edit documents and folders and assign authorizations to other users, user groups, and roles.
4.      You define authorizations for other users, user groups, roles, and HR objects in SAP Easy Document Managementunder SAP Properties on the Authorizations tab page for a folder or document, by choosing

Word 2013 shows full UNC path instead of local "Documents" folder on file Open and Save

Normally Word (and Excel) by default will show the user's local "Documents" folder when opening or saving a file. That is what we want. However, after using Windows Server Folder Redirection to redirect the Documents folder to the network (Windows
Server 2012R2), Word now shows the full UNC path to the network share.
Instead of seeing:
"MyPC Documents"
users see
\\sever1\redirect$\username\documents
Folder redirection is supposed to be transparent to the user. Virtually all our other applications, including Office 2003, respect this convention and continue to show "Documents". As you can see, Word even exposes a hidden share.
Even if we go to File / Options / Save and browse to the local Documents folder as the place Word should open and save files from, Word immediately removes the path you have browsed to, and replaces it with the UNC path.
Is there a way to suppress this behavior? Thanx!
Dana

Hi,
Based on my understanding, you only want others to see some part of path name, rather than full UNC path name. It is right?
It seems that we can’t implement your requirement. When we open a file from “My Pictures”, it shows “My picture” instead of showing the full path “C:\Users\User\Pictures”. “My Picture” is set as a library in Windows, so it hides
full path by design. We can't set \\sever1\redirect$\username\documents as a library.
As a workaround, you can upload these files to OneDrive and share link to others.
If I have anything misunderstood, don't hesitate to tell me.

I have added the Documents folder to the Dock, however when I save a document it doesn't appear in the Documents folder on the Dock, only the Documents folder in the Finder. Is this a quirk, so am I doing something wrong?

I like having my Documents folder on the Dock so I added the Documents folder from the Finder to the Dock. When I save a document to the Documents folder, the saved document appears in the Documents folder from the Finder and not in the Documents folder on the Dock. Why is this happening? And how can I change this?

Oooh. I never new that was there.

When I try to save downloads directly to a folder in Documents I get this error message "Word cannot save or create this file. The disk may be full or write protected." I can only save to the Desktop.

Any ideas on how to save a download to a document folder? I have tried to "save as" and "move to" documents from the desktop, but the same message appears. Please help!

Yes! Your question prompted me to explore the Finder...I can move folders and files around to place docs where I want them to be. Thank you so very much! Is this the only way to move downloads to documents?
