Preview won't save a new signature

I successfully use my own digital signature on preview documents, but when I have tried to add my husbands via "manage signatures" or even directly from "Create signature from Facetime HD Camera", it shows his signature as we hold it up, but when we click 'accept' it disappears and isn't available on the signature drop down. I can't seem to get it to save and it's so frustrating!
Has anyone else had this problem and was there a reason being overlooked?

Information by some who got it to work.

In another discussion, some people solved it by taking a picture of the signature in Photo Booth and then trying again in Preview.

7.3 Upgrade - Won't save any new music

I have just upgraded to version 7.3 but an error message has come up saying library cannot be saved (-50). I have tried to download again but same message occurs.
It won't allow me to save any new music to the library.
Has anyone else come across this and does anyone know how to solve it.

I have exactly the same problem. Every time I start the program It tries to dreate the library and then gives the message "The i tunes library cannot be saved an unknown error occurs (-50) I'm sorry I upgraded and wish I could go back.
Hopefully someone will find an answer. Otherwise I guess I don't buy any more itunes which would make my wife happy!

Contacts app? no accounts. can't add one. won't save a new contact.

My Contacts app shows no accounts, I cannot add an account local or cloud, and if I add a contact it is not saved to disk. Anyone have any idea what is going on? and how I might fix it. Other apps in this group (Calendar, Mail, Notes, etc) seem to be working normally.

I'm having this as well. I have a 15 inch Retina MacBook Pro (late 2013). I added an iCloud account in the preferences panel, and it added it successfully to email and calendar but not contacts, even though it is checked. I've tried to add it from within contacts, signed out of iCloud and signed back in, and restarted the computer with no success.
I can't sync with iCloud or add a new contact.

Preview won't save annotations.

MacBook Pro, OS X 10.6.8
Preview has suddenly stopped saving annotations (arrows, circles, underlines) that I apply to a PDF. The PDF was created from a file on a web site that I printed as a PDF to my desktop. This has not been a problem in the past, but only in the last week or so and long after I installed 10.6.8 from 10.6.7.
Any suggestions appreciated.

Sorry,
Did you close because you got an answer, the problem was solved or because there was no response and no solution?
I am having this issue, but only on certain .pdf's and if I select the general area of the text box, the annotation returns, but this is obviously time consuming.
Any ideas.

I deleted my facebook password from firefox, now firefox won't save my new password.

I have the box checked to save all passwords by firefox, but it isn't saving them.

When you delete your password, the site often gets added to the exceptions, for some reason. I had this issue when I just deleted one of my gmail passwords to update it. It's a quick fix, if this is the issue.
Go to Preferences, Security, Exceptions, and make sure that, in this case, facebook.com isn't added to the exceptions.
Hope this helps!

Saving a theme but it won't save the new colours I've created

Hi
I've created a template/theme in Keynote and created a colour palette, but when I save the theme and open it on another machine all the colours in the colourpalette is gone and I need to create them again.
There must be possible to import the colour palette into teh theme?
Anybody knows?
Would be very gratefull!

If you're talking about the Apple color picker, there's no way to do that inside Keynote.
When I make custom themes, I provide an extras file filled with color chips that the user can sample from. It's easier than showing them how to import a color picker palette into their system.
You could also stick them on an extra master slide so they're always in the theme.

Dock won't save my new preferences

When i restart or turn off the Mac all my changes to my dock go back to what they were like a month ago. When i put them back to how i want them and restart, same old dock comes up. It's quite annoying.

Very easy to isolate. Create a test user, and see if changes will take affect and hold in there with the dock. If they do, issue is user specific and you can pull the "com.apple.dock.plist" from the "user/library/preferences/" folder. If issue persists in new user, is system wide. Run Disk Utility and verify the "Macintosh HD" internal volume. If issue persists, try a quick easy reinstall of the OS with your install DVD's.

ICal won't save any new events

Hello,
iCal worked fine for a time, but now I can enter as much events as I want, it forgets everyone once I shut down iCal. If I just close the window (so that the light still glows under the symbol in the dock) the program remembers the newly entered events.
I'm not sure, but I upgraded 10.5. to 10.6.2. snow leopard on my MacBook a few days ago - so maybe the events won't be saved since I installed 10.6. and the problem is connected with 10.6.
Events I entered in the past, are being remembered finely. And I have full write and read rights in the specific events-folder.
I found this problem often on google, but no one seems to have a solution but to deactivate the birthday-abonnement, which I don't want to. I didn't find this problem in this forum - if it exists, please just delete this thread and show me the other one.
Thank You for answering,
schut

schut,
...when I export as .ics-file I get all my events back by importing and when I use .icbu-files I don't.
That is the reason that I urged you to export individual calendars. That procedure will usually work for the .ics files if the .icbu is unsuccessful.
...One is called "Calendar sync Changes" (although I don't sync my calendar with anything?). Of course I deleted everything, but I wanted to report this either.
I do not know why it reappears, but surmise that attempting to subscribe to birthdays may create the folder.
...When I log in again and start iCal it has the event-groups "test", "Privat" and "Buero" (=office or something like that in English). Is this normal although I deleted all the stuff You said?
Those two calendars (Work/Home)will automatically be created the first time iCal opens without any data. You can delete them without consequence.
...By the way, is there no way/program with that I can uninstall iCal (and maybe reinstall)?
I have found that individual application reinstallation rarely, if ever solves the type of problems which you are experiencing.
...Or is there maybe a known problem in the address-book program from which is not known that it can conflict with the iCal also?
I am not aware of a "known problem," but do agree that there may be a corrupt address card.
I would agree with your plan, as long as you are willing to manually recreate your Address Book entries.
Good Luck!

Firefox search box no longer displays any search engines and won't save any new ones

A while back the default search box in firefox 4 randomly lost all the search engines in it and the box to restore defaults is permanently greyed out so I can't restore it. I've tried deleting the files mentioned in other responses as well as just moving them out of the folder with no success. I feel that the only way to possibly fix this is to completely remove all traces of firefox from my laptop and reinstall but i'd rather not go through reinstalling all the add ons I have etc if it can be helped with a simpler fix.

I said in my initial post that I had tried all those fixes. Tried everything with the sqlite files and the form history. No luck. Don't have either of the extensions and it can't be any of the others as even in safe mode it still isn't any different. I have also performed plenty of virus scans and nothing has come up.

7.2 won't save artwork, where can I get previous version of iTunes?

iTunes 7.2 won't save any new artwork. When I press the 'Add' button in the Artwork window, I can select a .jpg file, it displays in the Artwork window, but NOT in the Selected Item window. If I return to the Artwork window immediately it's empty. None of my existing artwork seems to be affected.
I want to download a previous version of iTunes, but all I can find is 7.2. Can anybody help?

go to downloads.com or versiontracker.com or a download site for apple products and download it there

Settings won't save Yahoo mail after adding second verification?

My Yahoo email was hacked.   Most of the emails in my Yahoo account were sent a spam mail from my Yahoo account.
As advised, I changed my password and added some extra security - a second verification so no one can login to my account without additional security questions or verification code.
No problem adding email back on my android phone.   But my iPad and I can't figure it out.
I signed out of yahoo mail on iPad.   Deleted the account in settings.   Verified it was gone.
Added the account back in settings, or tried to.   I get the message server unavailable.   It won't save the new password.   It won't trigger second verification.
I went through Safari and I can login to Yahoo mail on Safari.
I am also able to add the account to the yahoo mail app and use it.   But my iPad is constantly asking for the password.
I'm hoping someone else has had a similar problem and solved it.

I hope I have a self answering question.... Thanks to the "more like this" side bar.
the problem comes from your second sign-in verification, go to your setting in your yahoo account then go to Edit your account info, then go to Manage your app password a new page come out, go to the Manage your app passwords box and write " my iphone mail" then press generate password, this will give you a long password this password you gonna use it ones in your iphone and ones in your ipad.
then go to your iphone open setting then go to your emails,contacts, calender. Then press yahoo account and go to your yahoo account information, erase the old password and enter the new long password and done.
hope work for you guys, did work for me.

New workspace won't save correctly in Bridge CS4

I have been trying to save a new workspace with just the preview panel showing. When I use Windows>Workspace>New workspace, it saves to the name I give it, but the panels go back to the default (Essentials) configuration.
Any ideas please?
Thanks

Thanks - that almost worked. It certainly let me change the configuration of the windows, but I can't get to hide the content window. It insists on showing 3 thumbnials in width...

Image won't save in my e-mail signature

Hoping someone can help me, I have tried adding an image to my e-mail signature by going into mail preferences and then dragging and dropping and image into an existing mail signature that I have created previously.
The thing is, every time I close mail and open it back up again the image never is saved to my e-mail signature.
The account I have set-up is link hosted by GoDaddy with my own domain name.
I have 5 accounts set-up and each account has it's own assigned mail signature.
I don't know why the image won't save in my e-mail signature????

I am having this same issue. I am not using a pic or html. Its just Text. This is on my .ME Email Account.
