Recent OS X upgrades save docs without saving them?

Whatever happened to "save" and "save-as"?  I am sick of typing in a document, remembering to duplicate it, closing the original, and finding the original saved all changes. Is this an fix Apple can do?  For business applications I can't have every pages and numbers doc be "live" and saving anytime its open.  Thoughts?

Generally the newer apps have "versions", which autosaves. Took me a while to get used to it, but I like it. I don't have to worry about saving things, and I can browse through previous versions if I want.
There was a way to disable this on an application specific basis in Lion: Disable Autosave and Enable "Save As..." - Mac OS X Hints  . I haven't tried this for Mavericks, but you could if you like.
In those apps that have "versions", if you option-click on the File menu, Save as... appears.

  • With recent calls , is it possible to save certain calls without saving them to contacts and delete the ones i dont want?

    My question is ,
    with the recent calls is the a way to save certain calls without saving them as contacts, and delete the others that i dont need?    I am a truck driver and i  need only certain calls during the day and if i could delete only the ones that arent needed for the day and keep the others that would make the day run smoother.  Each is different and when the day is finished then i would delete the ones i needed for the day and start all over again.   Is this possible?

    I think you would have to reinstall the keys seeing that if you format the computer all the data is gone. Even though you backed up that data you never know what can happen when you try to reinstall certain apps. Not sure what method you can go by, you should run a diagnostics test to see how you computer is doing internally.
    Goodluck

  • Using Firefox, I used to be able to open a document on a website and look at it without downloading.  Now, I must download a document in order to view it.  How can I change settings so that I can open documents without saving them?

    Using Firefox, I used to be able to open a document on a website, such as a bank statement, and view it without downloading.  Now, I must download and save a document before I can view it.  How can I change settings so that I can open documents without saving them first?

    Do you know what kind of docs they are? Did you upgrade/Update Firefox lately?

  • Is it possible to combine multiple pdf's into one without saving them onto your computer?

    Hello
    I open pdf's in an application (no add ons for acrobat exist), and want to combine them without having to use time on saving them before merging them into one single document.
    Is it possible to do this without having the files saved onto your computer? I use acrobat x pro.

    I dont think you understand my question. Of course Adobe reader cant combine pdf's, if it could I would not have had to purchase Adobe acrobat.
    The problem I am trying to solve is how to combine pdf files when they are not opened/saved locally on my computer.
    If I make Acrobat the standard program for opening pdf files on my computer - then will it be possible to combine the files that are opened without saving them first?
    I dont have the program installed on my computer now, and have to know this before we purchase it.

  • I would like to open attachments without saving them. Is there a way to do that in Firefox like in IE ?

    It is nice to open an attachment without saving it to a specific location. I am used to doing this with Internet Explorer. However,
    it does not seem that I can do that with Firefox. Is that true or am I missing something ?

    Goto Options > Applications > Click on 'Action' of the file that you want to change the properties of to: Save File/Always Ask or choose a program to open it with.
    Click OK to save.

  • Exit notes, reminders without saving them

    Hello all,
    can someone please help me figure this out.
    Is it possible to exit a note or a reminder (and note in evernote) without saving it. I know the "shake your phone" undo trick. But I am looking for somrthing more powerful.
    If its not there, then its a pity, how can a simple "cancel" button was not provided.
    Please help
    Santosh.

    Ah! I see that the question was not understood correctly.
    Never mind, I will explain a scenario.
    I open a note and remove some text from it. I also add some more text to it.
    Now I want to get out of that note without retaining those changes, I.e. When I come back to that note, it should show me the contents as they were (without the updates I did). This is what I am unable to do. Every time I change a note, I have no choice but to save the changes when I exit it.
    I hope I am able to convey it now correctly.
    Thanks for the earlier reply btw!  

  • Is there a way to import iMessage pictures to laptop without saving them to camera roll?

    I send all my pictures from my camera roll to iMessage as soon as I save them. I have over 1000 pictures on there. With out saving them to my camera roll again, is there a way to import them to my laptop? I can get my camera roll images onto my laptop, but not iMessage.I hope this makes sense.

    Sorry, it doesn't make sense to me. Why would you want to send photos to iMessage that you have already saved to the camera roll and imported to your PC - just to send the same photos back to the PC again?

  • How can i open pdf files from the web without saving them

    Windows 7
    Firefox 5
    Adobe Reader 9
    when i want to see a web based pdf file i have to save it before opening it instead of it just opening in a pdf window.

    You can't.
    Those PDFs are only accessible on the Mac.
    They can not even be accessed by iOS.

  • Cannot open pdf attachments anymore without saving them

    I cannot open PDF files that come in as attachments (Adobe Reader 9) I have had this problem for two days. Before the, it was no problem at all. Now, for me to open an attachment, I have to save it first and then open it via My computer or via Adobe Reader and file open. The file association is there, set FOR Adobe Reader to open all pdf files. So what is the problem? It is a time consuming pain to have to save an attachment just to open it.
    Thanks

    thanks for the suggestion...I was sure it was going to work, but it didn't...when I restarted after performing the fix, the problem is still there...

    Can anyone help with this - do I have to uninstall Reader and then reinstall?

    I have had a trial version of Acrobat X1 Pro - I have decided not to buy at this stage - for some time it has been conflicting with opening PDF docs after "saving as" from word 2007 - I uninstalled Pro X1 and now when I "save as" PDF from word 2007 to PDF it will save the document as a PDF but will not open the document to display after publishing - I have to got to where the file has been saved to view the new PDF document - this is really annoying - do I have to delete adobe reader and reinstall it - adobe needs to look at this conflict with acrobat pro as I have even gone it to properties and tried to have adobe reader as the default PDF program - the main issue is that I cannot view the PDF after publishing it from word 2007

  • I do not want to save every file I download. just want to open a file and move on. I do not see an option to just open or run the download without saving.

    Please give an option to just open and run a download without saving.
    I have a bunch of the things saved in the download folder that I have no clue what all of it is. Please I do not want to save everything I download, I would like to just open a file move on.
    Thank you.

    sorry but there is no option like this.
    but if you like you can delete them manually
    for these :
    1.open downloads from menu button on right or by simply pressing (Ctrl +J )
    2.Then select the downloaded file you want to delete by a single click on it.
    3. You will find a folder type icon on right side of that , in which you should click.
    4. Then it will open folder where the selected file saved.
    5. Then you can delete that file .
    OK done

  • HT4075 I don't have any problems merging the documents by dragging, but when I try to save and open afterwards, only the last shown doc was saved, not the combined files I wanted to merge. I tried save and export, how can I create the file after merging?

    Hi, I'm having trouble saving the documents when merging in Preview. I don't have any problems merging the pdf documents by dragging them in preview, but when I try to save and open afterwards, only the last shown doc was saved, not the combined files I wanted to merge. I've tried save and export, but none merge the documents after saving... how can I create the file (with all the pdf files) after merging?

    That's a comment in the file. It has no effect at all.
