Publisher 2007 won't save as a Pub file

I have installed Microsoft Office Suite 2007 on my computer.  Everything activated great and everything works fine, Excel, Word, Power Point, Outlook, etc.  Publisher opens as normal, I can create a document, edit and print.  When I save
it, it says it's a Pub file but it saves as a pdf.  Then the pdf won't open.  When I go into Publisher the file is there but it won't open.  I have tried save as with the same results.  I have uninstalled the program and reinstalled with
the same results.  What am I missing????

  • Word 2007 won't save files with Acrobat Pro 9.0 Installed

    Last night an issue started occurring while trying to save a document in MS Word 2007 (part of an Office Ultimate install).  After about 10 hours of trying several suggestions from a variety of forums and MS suggestions I found that the only time I cannot save a file by traditional means is when Acrobat is installed.  I tried updating Acrobate and had the same thing happen.  MS says all that's left for me to do is get an answer from Adobe (I have to wonder if it's a copout).
    Steps taken so far:
    Disabled the PDF add-in - still unable to save Word files
    Removed PDF add-in - still unable to save Word files
    Removed entire CS4 suite - Word was able to properly save files
    Installed only the parts of the suite that I use frequently (Photoshop, Soundbooth, Premiere, Acrobat) - unable to save Word files
    Removed Acrobat Pro 9.0 - Word saves files properly again
    When I say it will not save a file I've tried the keyboard shortcuts for Save/Save As, Choosing the Save/Save As from drop down, and even attempted to save by closing the document.  When prompted with the option to save changes I say yes and nothing will happen, I have to close the document with nothing saved.
    I hate the idea of reinstalling Acrobat each time I need to use it to keep Word functional.  I've seen a ton of threads on other forums related to this issue.  Has anybody else seen this or know about a fix/work around?  Any help is appreciated.  Please let me know if additional detail is necessary.
    The operating system for the affected computer is Windows 7 32-bit.

    I installed each update individually (6 of them) and rebooted after each update.  Opened Word and attempted to save a document (after each update/reboot), the documents still cannot be saved (previously created documents still cannot have new detail saved).
    Decided to delete the Office folder in the following path: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\PDFMaker\Office
    Opened up word and Acrobat went through an installation processes, to replace what was removed I assume.  After this was done I attempted to save a document and was still unable to do so.  Went back and deleted that Office folder in the above path again.  When opening Word this time I cancelled the installation process that Adobe was trying to complete.  Preventing the install of the settings and PDF add-in allowed documents to be saved again in word.
    I decided to try to remove the innactive add-in from my Word Options and received the following error message:
    "The connected state of Office Add-Ins registered in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE cannot be changed"
    Due to my deleting that folder?
    I suppose I could cancel that installation that initiates each time I open Word (or any other Office program that benefits from Acrobat Add-ins) but that will be a bit of an annoyance.
    Anybody have another suggestion, know what may need to be deleted from the registry to prevent the Add-ins installation when opening Word, or know where that setting can be changed?
    Hopefully getting close to a resolution

  • FMLE Won't Save To One Continuous File

    When I am streaming with FMLE 3.1 and have "Save to file" checked, it will not save my file as one continuous file. No I do not have Limit by size or duration checked. I have a BM Decklink HD Extreme 2 on a Mac 2 x 2.66 Ghz Dual Core Intel-Xeon and FMLE 3.1. I am to streaming live via NTSC SDI input from the BM card. Here are my FMLE settings:
    *Video*
    Device - BM NTSC
    Format - VP6
    Input Size - 720x480
    Bit Rate - 800Kbps - Output Size - 720x480
    *Audio*
    Device - BM Audio
    Format - MP3 - Stereo - 44100Hz - 96Kbps

    Does the "Save to file" always stop at a certain file size or video time?
    Are you stopping the camera at any point?
    any other recurring circumstances?

  • InDesign CC won't save after working on file and saving.

    I am really getting tired of resetting the preferences in InDesign CC when it stops SAVING or SAVING AS. This occurs after working and saving on an InDesign file - then all of a sudden it will not save or save as. There is no pattern so I never know when this will happen. I called support and they suggested restarting and resetting the preferences. I have done this multiple times.
    This is frustrating. I have to open my file and determine the work that I did but did not save, and do it again. What a waste of time.
    I have read several forums with no other suggestions other than trashing the preferences and disabling Sync settings. I have done both of these multiple times.
    Help!

  • Bridge won't save metadata for .mov files

    Hi.
    I could be trying to do something that Bridge can't do (though I have read that it should). I am trying to add metadata to .mov files. Bridge allows me to enter the text both under 'File info' and in the Metadada IPTC Core fields, however when I 'apply' or click OK they don't save.
    Well, in the IPTC Core when I click 'apply' they are there until I select another file then go back and they aren't.
    I am using Bridge CS5 on a PC with XP.
    Thanks

    Thanks Curt Y. Under 'run as' there was two options both of which were noted as administrator - though I could only use one as we don't have the password for the other. I'm not using an external drive.
    The strange thing is that there is no problem applying the metadata to images, just mov files.

  • Photoshop won't save Metadata from opened file!?

    I have a somewhat strange workflow when it comes to using Lightroom so I'll try to explain it in order to make this as easy to understand.
    I use Image Ingester to import my images on to a computer and then I rate them and tag them in Bridge.  I then use ACR to convert them to DNG files and place them in a new folder (buckets from the DAM book).  After that they get imported in to the proper catalog in Lightroom.  I then find the images that I want and export them as originals to a derivatives hard drive.  I work on the images in Photoshop, save them as a PSD in a derivative 'bucket' and then re-import them to Lightroom so they can be exported in a batch.  When I export them from Lightroom to the derivative hard drive as a DNG or Original (same thing in this case) it retains its metadata that has been added.  But as soon as I save it in Photoshop as a PSD it loses its metadata.  I don't understand why this is happening.
    I hope there is an easy fix for this.
    Cheers,
    Matthew

    Hi,
    Did you solve your save problem? I am having the exact problem suddenly. Never happened before and now can't solve it. Did a repair permissions after upgrade to iphoto 06; but can't save anything to desktop after bringing any photo from iphoto to photoshop. The same error is coming up
    "Could not complete your request because of a program error"
    Folks at Photoshop said it is definately an iphoto permissions problem, not photoshop.
    If you figured it out, I'd sure appreciate your solution.

  • ICS3 won't save as ai even after trashed prefs

    My Illustrator CS3 won't save as an ai file even after trashing the prefs and restarting. Anything else I can try to get this working?

    Ian,
    even after trashing the prefs and restarting
    Did you delete the preferences with Illy closed? Otherwise, it does not work.
    The next step may be to Move the folder

  • Publisher 2013 won't open a .pub file

    Using Publisher 2013 from Office 365 Home Premium, I can't open some .pub file I had no problem opening the previous day. I get the message "Publisher has detected a problem in the file you are trying to open. To protect your computer, Publisher will

  • Converting ms publisher 2007 files to pdf in acrobat x pro

    I really could use help with my project.  I have a publisher 2007 file which I converted to pdf in Acrobat x pro.  The links won't work.  There are 4 links.  2 to external web sites and 2 are email links.  I tried setting the links in publisher then converting.  That didn't workl.  I tried removing the links then converting and adding the links in Acrobat.  They don't work either after I publish them to my web site.  Please tell me what I am doing wrong.
    Thanks.

    Could you post the link you mention? How did you create the PDF from Publisher -- there are several ways and some save the links and some don't. Also, some are MS methods and others are Adobe methods.

  • IDVD won't 'Save as...'

    I've just upgraded to iDVD 7.0.1 and my main project now won't 'Save as...' or 'Archive...'. If I select either of those items from the menu, the program instantly crashes, without even a Crash Report Form to reply to Apple.
    Oddly, I can 'Save', so there's an obvious workaround: duplicate the project file in the Finder, then use that to work with.
    I've restarted the machine, obviously, and checked everything I can think of. Is anyone else finding this bug?

  • Problems converting MS Publisher 2007 documents to PDF

    Hi I have MS Publisher 2007 and create documents using MS Publisher then convert them to PDF without ANY problems - until about 2 months ago. Nothing changed other than the usual updates from Adobe and Microsoft and now I cannot convert ANY files from MS Publisher to PDF - neither through the MS Publisher utility or the Adobe utility. Crazy thing is it is ONLY a problem for MS Publisher - every other Office product prints to PDF fine. I cannot even save to PDF with Publisher - I get the MS error message "Publisher cannot save the file". When I try to create a PDF using Adobe it progresses through the conversion process and acts like it has created the file - but I cannot find it in the location specified and it's nowhere on my PC. There's no error message created by Adobe Acrobat either. We've tried to understand what the problem is and for some reason when I reduce file size UNDER 1MB MS Publisher and Adobe behave and create the PDF! Over 1MB and nothing doing.
    It's driving me crazy as we choose to use MS Publisher for all our creative stuff - not because it's cheap but because the interface is more user friendly and I guess we're used to MS products.
    Details:
    MS Publisher - 2007 (12.0.6535.5002) SP2 MSO (12.0.6535.5002)
    Part of Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007
    Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro - Version 9.3.4
    Part of Design Suite CS5
    I would REALLY appreciate it if someone could PLEASE advise how we can fix this problem.

    ***** Actually, girls and guys I think I have found the problem!!!!!
    It's not just pictures that can cause the "Cannot Save File" message it's also fonts.
    We were using Myriad Pro in all our Case Studies and up until a certain date 2 months ago it was great all could be printed and there were no problems. Then for some reason - and I have since discovered the font Myriad Pro has a licensing issue on our PC's - all our Case Study templates were unable to be converted and we were having issues all over the place.
    I went through the advice contained in these posts (and also onb the Adobe website) and removed images one by one to see what was actually causing the problem. Nothing, no result the issues still existed. Then I hit upon the idea of changing the font to Arial and BINGO!!! it worked!!!! So, my advice is to ensure that your images are free from errors (whatever that means!) and you're using fonts that have no licensing issues and Publisher will be able to convert them no problems.
    Now, as for the advice Microsoft gave us...well I am as frustrated as everyone else is that we had to find the answers ourselves and MS couldn't have developed a tool that would pick up these issues for us in the document itself. C'mon Microsoft you make this great product - make it even better and give us better diagnostic tools please.
    Oh and by the way, when I did the same document in InDesign (which was a pain in the a...) it handled the font issue no problems - explain that one Microsoft.

  • My Publisher 2007 Font Times document printed to Adobe X Printer has 150% clear display of PDF but not quite as clear at 100%

    (1) HP 2311X LED Monitor and monitor LED HP Pavilion 27XI LED, Windows 8.1 on HP ENVY 700-qe computer system: (2) Windows XP Dell Computer Inspiron 530 Model: DCMF with NVIDIA Video Card GeoForce 8400 with Monitor Dell LCD model S2409Wb (3) I am using Publisher 2007 to print to Adobe Pro version X  PDF printer to produce a PDF.  We produce one PDF set up for 5.5X8 set up in printers spread and another PDF set up for readers spread.  At 100% on both computer systems the print on the screen is not as clear (just a little like when an inkjet runs low on ink-some parts of the printed letters aren't as distinct as when viewed at 150%.  We are using the Times Font.  Clear Type computer enabled on both the Windows 8.1 system and the XP system displays.  I tried using Publisher 2013 to produce a PDF and it seemed just as good at 150% and a little clearer at 100%.   The PDFs are displayed on a web page for people to download.  The web page is www.cbcb.org – a good booklet to look at on the first web page is “Appointed Times”.
    What is going on here?  The document has been viewed on the above two computers with three monitors and results are the same.   With the Publisher 2007 I was printing to an installed Adobe Printer in the printer dialogue box to produce the PDF and with the Publisher 2013 I was creating the PDF by using the "SAVE AS" option.
    Would appreciate some pointers on what is going on.

    This is a pretty unusal error that i dont even think Adobe has an answer to. Either A.) They are really bad with keeping all their customer case information or B.) They know this is something they have no answer to so they are giving us the run around. It just doesnt make sense that it will work with excel and powerpoint now and not word. Only thing i have not tried is reloading Office...It may be something to attempt. If anything comes to mind i would appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

  • IWeb won't save work in Lion.

    Hello,
    I've been using iWeb for a cuple of years, and have been creating quite a few web sites by now.
    Recently, i switched to Lion, and saved my Domain file from Leopard, to the fresh new copy of Lion.
    But now, in Lion, iWeb won't save my work/changes.
    I've modified a site 4 times allready. As usual, i used Cmd+S and/or File>Save in order to consrve my work before the actual publishing to the MobileMe Domain. When I modify and publish my web site, the changes are present on the online version, but after i quit the application, everything comes back to the old version of the web site in iWeb. it doesn's matter whether I save or my work with Cmd+S or File>Save, nothing works. Everytime I have to start from the old version of the web site and modify everything again.
    Has anyone encountered this problem and can she/he provide a solution for it?
    Thake you very much for your time!

    No, I have only one Domain file. Inside this Domain file, there are 2 sites. But for the past year it has been the same, and it worked well under Snow Leopard.
    The Domain file (saved from Snow Leopard), i copied it to Users/user_name/Library/Application Support/iWeb. Of course, I overwrote the existing one (the sample one that comes with iWeb by default).
    As far as I know, this should be the wright place to put it. Proof is that after installing Lion and putting the Domain file in the above named folder, iWeb recognized the Domain file and showed me my 2 web sites.
    So i guess the problem doesn't come from here. It must be something different...

  • How do I keep my original text colours when converting from Publisher 2007 to PDF format?

    Recently I am finding that when I convert my Publisher 2007 documents to PDF, the text colours do not remain the same, but revert to black or grey?  Clip art retains its colours.  What am I doing wrong? 

    They won't show up unless
    you have click on each text box
    Go  Format  > Shape
    click on lines
    chose desired line color for the borders.
    once the Borders a colored they will show up in the created PDFs.
