Safari 5.1 no longer saves file origin?

I very much appreciated the file source URL, the internet address, being saved together with downloaded files in previous versions of Safari. The URL showed up under More Info when viewing the file's Get Info window, and could be copied from there since Snow Leopard 10.6. Quite handy. This info was stored in the extended attribute "kMDItemWhereFroms" which could be viewed in Terminal with the xattr or mdls command (file path as argument). Now on latest Snow Leopard 10.6.8 with latest Safari 5.1 (6534.50), it's no longer there. I miss it! Is there a way to re-enable this feature? I saw no obvious option with another Terminal command "defaults read com.apple.Safari".

Amendement: it seems the origin is only lost when saving to the Downloads folder. Save (or drag) to anywhere else, like the Desktop, and the source URL is there! So this is a partial solution. What I'd really like is for it to work everywhere, and especially in Downloads because that is where I normally save items.

  • Elements no longer saves files!

    For years I have been running Elements 2 & 7. Mostly I use 2 for manipulation and 7 for printing. A few weeks ago I could no longer save files in 2. I tried to un-install 2 and then re-install it. The problem continues - I get the message "Could not complete your request because of a programing error". I use an HP Desktop and Windows XP Pro. What should I try next?

    I'd try resetting the photoshop elements 2 preferences file by holding down the Shift+Ctrl+Alt keys just after you double click or single click the pse 2 shortcut.
    (double click if the shortcut is on the desktop or single click if the shortcut is in the start>programs list)
    Keep holding the keys until you get a dialog asking if you want to delete the photoshop elements settings file and press yes because you do.

  • Safari 5.1 no longer saves bookmarks

    Could be the Safari preferences are corrupted ..
    Go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file to the Desktop.
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, move the .plist file to the Trash.
    ~ (Tilde) character represents your Home folder.
    If that didn't help, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder.
    Try this...
    Quit Safari. Open a Finder window select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left. Then open the Library folder, then the Caches folder, then the com.apple.Safari folder. Move the cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash. Relaunch Safari. Try saving a bookmark.

  • Can no longer save files in Motion 2

    I have been working on a project in Motion all week (2.1.2). Tonight I tried creating a new file, and I couldn't save it - no dialogue box appears at all. I opened up the file I've been working on all week, made a minor change to see if I could save that file, and I couldn't. Export is not working either. I have searched discussions to find an answer, but nothing has helped. I deleted the com.apple.motion.plist file, but that didn't work. I also tried reinstalling and am currently now on 2.1, hoping that it would help to not run the upgrade to 2.1.2, but it still won't save. I have a huge deadline coming up fast, and I don't know what to do! The only explanation I can come up with is the updates that I ran earlier today, which included the following:
    Mac OS X 10.6.7
    iDVD 7.1.1
    Garageband 6.0.2
    iWeb 3.0.3
    Safari 5.0.4
    iTunes 10.2.1
    Digital camera raw..3.6
    Java Update 4 1.0
    Any suggestions??

    the problem is likely related to the fact that you're running an extremely old version of Motion, and the most recent version of Mac OS. I'm surprised it'll run at all. Of the updates you listed that's the most likely culprit. See if you can revert.
    On a separate note, if you are working with obsolete software (5 years is a lifetime in software terms), you have to be EXTREMELY careful about updating your working configuration in any way. There's nothing wrong working with outdated software. If it serves your needs and you don't have to upgrade (or can't spend the money), that's fine. But understand that as other programs like the OS are updated, their compatibility with older software becomes more and more unlikely.
    The way to do it, is to find the configuration that works best, and then stop updating. Don't update until you HAVE to, and realize that it'll likely force you to update a lot of your programs.

  • Can someone tell me why Photoshop CS5 will no longer save files a jpeg

    When I flatten and save image as jpg it results in a file theat I can no longer open with any program. When I try to open it I get "it's not the right kind of document" popup. I may have downloaded some extensions that I shouldn't have - can someone help me? I tried looking for setting defaults as well but can't find that either. Thanks

    We don't know anything about your system, but yes, removing potentialyl incompatible plug-ins and extensions would be a start.

  • Firefox will no longer save files to my secondary hard disk

    I've tried a few times already to download a couple of large files (100+ megabyte) to my 2nd hard disk, what happens is that the option download box pops up, I select choose download location, select the 2nd hdd, and press save, then the download box appears and shows no activity what so ever. I've tried downloading the same files to the main drive and the download starts no problem, while saving to the 2nd drive does not work for some reason. I was able to save to my 2nd disk yesterday without any issue. But today firefox will only let me save to my main drive.
    And before anyone says to take of the adblock, noscript blocks, I already did before trying to re-download the files.

    You can try to clear the cache.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    You can also check for issues with the mimeTypes.rdf file.

  • Ds4  can't save files.  Error message: while executing onload in_opOpen.htm

    All of a sudden I'm getting this error message. I can view files and create files but can no longer save files.
    If I try to save a file, I get the following message:
    Full text of message: While executing onLoad in_opOpen.htm, the following Javascript error(s) occurred: In file "_opOpen": onOpen is not defined
    If I click ok in the alert,
    The following translators were not loaded due to errors:
    ASP.html has configuration information that is invalid.
    Data.htm: has configuration information that is invalid.
    ICERegionals.htm has configuration information that is invalid
    Not sure how these were corrupted. How do I fix this problem? The resolutions I've found on line are not working.An example: delete the file called ‘WinFileCache-[random numbers].dat’.. That did not work. I'm using Windows 7 Professional.

    If you've already tried clearing the cache file and personal config folder: Deleting a corrupted cache file
    A good next step would be restoring preferences: Restore preferences | Dreamweaver CS4, CS5, CS5.5, CS6

  • Finder in Save file dialog Safari crash

    Ever since I upgraded to Snow Leopard at launch, Safari 4 doesn't seem to like me searching in the save file dialog box. It doesn't seem to matter whether or not I actually save the file, and I made a screen recording to show what happens here:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFKkPI2vGr8
    I've reset Safari, and I repaired my disk permissions after loading up Snow Leopard. What gives? This is really annoying when I want to get to a folder fast, and dragging and dropping image files to folders seems to cause them to open in different Preview windows (or not even open at all).
    Any help would be much appreciated. This is seriously making me consider going back to Firefox or just going with Chrome - this crash doesn't happen with either of them!

    The problems are caused by third party input managers/enhancers that have not yet been updated by their developers to comply with the standards used by Safari 3.2.1. and/or Safari 4.
    In your case these are:
    com.zang.RegexKit 0.6.0 (0.6.0) <71374A4A-3B24-4759-E994-AB9E135345CB> /Library/InputManagers/Safari AdBlock/Safari AdBlock Loader.bundle/Contents/PlugIns/Safari AdBlock.bundle/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/RegexKit.framework/Versions/A/Regex Kit
    You fill find them in one or either of these folders:
    Home/Library/Input Managers
    Hard Disk/library/Input Managers
    Hard Disk/Library/Application Support
    although the exact location is indicated in your crash report as quoted above - look under 'Binary Images'.
    Close Safari and delete them, then restart Safari and it should be working normally. Alternatively drag them to the desktop and restart Safari. then add them back one at a time, restarting Safari every time, until you find the one (or more) causing the crash.
    Check with the developers of the plug-ins in question for updates that are Safari 4 compliant.

  • ACR won't save files other than in original file folder.

    This has just started.  All was fine until now.  I recently was working on several files in camera raw.  Went to save files but discovered that I am unable to save the image, no matter what file format I choose -- TIFF, PSD or JPG -- unless I put it in the original folder it came from.  For example, I would choose Save Image from ACR, then Save in New Location, then Select Folder, choose another file folder (say Desktop) and then it would try to save it but would tell me the file could not be created.  If I choose Save in Same Location, everything works fine.  I AM able to open the RAW file in Photoshop and Save it from there.  As I said this is happening all of a sudden.  I am working with Vista 64 bit and with Photoshop 64 bit.  I tried using the 32 bit program but the same thing happens.  Any suggestions or should I just completely uninstall and reinstall?  I have checked and have all the latest updates for both Photoshop and ACR.  Thanks.

    Hi Gingerdee1,
    Yes strange ....
    -Do you have the right privelige to save at an other location..... >>privelige-user .... or..... >>folder-protection (read-only)... >> or network privelige changed
    -Is that disc full maybe at that location....
    -Do you try to save a file with illegal characters in the file name...
    -Working with other RAW-files.............
    -Did you change any other situation....than before...

    I have tried in-installing safari but it seems not to help. I have tried installing it to a third, newly installed pc and come to the same result.
    All PCs are fully up-to-date as it regards Microsoft and Apple patches. Any ideas as to why this might happen?

    Still having the same problem. Ever the optimist, I submit the following info.
