Save as does'nt work

I am new at photoshop CS5. The option "Save as" doesn't work on my program. What might be the problem?

Just FYI: I was having a lot of problems with saving files in CS5 myself.  CS5 kept saying that the file was open in another application when there wasn't anything open except CS5 ( shut down all the other stuff running in the background). I was also getting a lot of problems with skipping and locking on my Wacom Intuos 4 pen.  The combination of problems often lead to Windows lock ups as well .Multiple calls to Wacom couldn't figure this strange problem up. Nor could hours spent surfing the net for answers.
  I even went as far as doing a complete format and clean install of Vista and the problems persisted.. until I bit the bullet and went to Windows 7.  I did the standard upgrade from Vista Home Premium 64 to Windows 7  Home Premium and all the problems went away. CS 5 works flawlessly and so does the Wacom pen. This makes me think that there's some sort of hidden Windows conflict going on-something even my computer programmer friend couldn't figure out.
Another thing I did was to turn off all the fancy Aero stuff by going into Control Panel-> Performance Information and Tools->Adjust visual effects-> check box that says "adjust for best performance".  I also put Windows into Classic mode in the personalization settings. Even with a powerful machine getting rid of that extra stuff slows things down a lot.  It also lets me keep the Open GL enabled in CS5 without causing any headaches with my video card.
Here are my computer specs, in case that helps:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit ( fully updated)
Intel Core 2 Quad CPU 2.33 Ghz
NVIDIA GE Force 9800 GT graphics card
8 GB RAM 512 mb video card memory
All performance options in CS5 are set to default settings ( memory use, file handling, etc). The PC is connected to a home wireless network ( home hobby user only)
Hopefully this information will help somebody.

  • Mail- Save Icon does not work

    I have noticed with mail since 10.5.2 that the small save icon on the email document does not save attachments / does not work anymore. I have to go to file menu and select "Save Attachments"
    Is this a bug or what ??

    John,
    I only now saw your first post. Have you looked in Mail Downloads folder to see if the attachments were saved there? In Mail 3.x, a quick click of the Save button would be expected to result in an unannounced save to that downloads folder. However, a click and brief hold on the Save button would be expected to result in a Save dialogue.
    More info, please.

  • "Always ask me where to save files" does not work.

    Summary: The "Always ask me where to save files" feature does not work. No dialog box comes up, apparently because the browser is stuck on a bad old read-only lastDir location, in a prefs.js file that I can't edit.
    Details:
    I am using Firefox 30.0 on Mac OS 10.6.8. My Mac has a both a read/write Mac partition that I use most of the time, and a bootcamp Windows partition drive ("C"), which I can read but not write to.
    At some point I accidentally tried to download a file from a site, using Firefox, to the read-only Windows C drive. Ever since that time, I have not been able to download any files from Firefox, except to the firefox/downloads folder. This is inconvenient. If, in preferences, I try to set downloads to ""Always ask me where to save files", the dialog box does not come up when I actually try to save files. This problem does not apply to saving photos by right-clicking them.
    If I open, in text-edit, mozilla/firefox/profiles/t4vockvue.default/prefs.js, which was saved yesterday, I can see a problematic line. It reads:
    user_pref("browser.download.lastDir", "C:\\Documents and Settings\\[etcetc]");
    C:\\Documents and Settings\\[etcetc] being the read-only windows directory.
    This prefs.js is apparently not an editable file.
    I tried to fix this by opening a browser tab in Firefox and opening about:config. The editable browser.download.lastDir does NOT show the same "lastDir"....it shows some directory that I successfully downloaded photos to, by right-clicking on a photo.
    How can I fix this problem?
    Thanks.

    To confirm which profile folder is active when you are running Firefox, it is easiest to open it from inside Firefox as follows:
    Sometimes the file that stores the customizations becomes corrupted and fails to update properly at the end of your session. You can rename the file and customize from scratch.
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
    * (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
    In the first table on the page, click the "Show in Finder" button (Windows: "Show Folder" button).
    Hopefully you are using a separate profile folder on each OS.

  • Creating Save Button Does Not Work - HELP!

    I am trying to create a button that will execute "Save As." I have added a regular button, and at the "click" option I enter: app.executeMenuItem("SaveAs").
    The error message I get is "Script failed (language is formcalc; context is xfa[a].form[0].form1[0].#subform[0].Button2[0]) script=app.executeMenuItem("SaveAs")
    Error:accessor 'app.executeMenuItem("SaveAs")' is unknown.
    What does this mean?? Can anyone please help, I need to get this working asap.
    Thanks in advance for help!!

    You need to change the language of the script from FormCalc to JavaScript in the drop down.

  • Archiving (duplicate heirarchy) project using Save-As does nothing, works on others

    'Morning.
    I'm having trouble getting one particular project to 'archive'. I've tried multiple options (include references, I've chosen specefic references, excluded vi.lib, multiple destintations, etc). No .lvproj file is created, and the HDD indicator does nothing. Simply closes the dialog. This function (File-Save As) performed on the toplevel project does work for some smaller projects just fine.
    Maybe about 300 dependancies (including vi.lib), LB 8.5.1, fresh install with XP about two months ago.
    Thoughts? Unfortunately I'm unable to post the entire project (for obvious reasons).
    Regards,

    Ah, nearly forgot about that option, thanks!
    First attempt yielded: system replication example from NI had a slash in the VI name. Renamed, and it built OK.
    File-Save as (duplicate) still yields the same.

  • A simple one: Save function does not work when a client is trying to save a form on his desktop i cr

    Hi, i have created a simple form in live cycle designer with just some fields the cleint can enter infomartion into.
    when ever they then open the PDf to fill in the fields, they can never save it, it seems to be the case everytime i make a form in live cycle designer. the documnet has no security settings on, and i cannot find anywhere else to enable/disable saving the documnet.
    Can anyone help?
    thanks.

    Ben,
    You are half correct with your thinking. The problem is two fold. The basic Adobe Reader program will only allow a user to view a form in all reality. Yes you can fill it in and print it, but saving the completed form is not something Reader is allowed to do on its own. The exception to this is having a Reader Extended form. A reader extended form has been given additional rights that allows the basic version of reader to perform additional tasks, that normally require Adobe Acrobat to accomplish. In order to be able to save your completed form you will need to either open the form with Adobe Acrobat, or reader extend the form first if you are going to do the same thing with Reader.

  • Adobe 9 plugin save function does not always work

    This may not be a problem with Adobe Reader or Internet Explorer, but my credit card company says it is, so I need to look.
    When I try to get my on-line statements from a particular credit card company, a new IE window with Adobe Reader running "underneath" comes up fine. When I press the "Save" icon (the floppy disk icon) nothing happens.
    I have done this recently with another similar site (brokerage account) successfully, so my version of Reader and/or IE7 do not seem to be the problem. Note that in all cases the bank/broker do not give direct access to the pdf file, which is probably for security reasons -- in other words, "right-click/save-as" does not work for on-line statements. Instead they run a server-end script which "presents" the pdf to the new browser window. All of this indicates that they have control over the security and therefore disallow me from saving locally.
    If anyone knows of a setting I need to make, or if they can confirm that the problem is on the server end, I could use the help. I want to stay paperless, so you'll be helping the environment if you help me :)
    My alternative is to print the statement, then scan it and throw it out, which is obviously ridiculous :)

    I am having much the same problem as the OP and Martin.
    Currently I am running Reader 9 on a Vista computer. This is a new computer and I was able to save my credit card statement in January. Then after I saved my statement in January, I believe I upgraded Reader at some point, and when I tried to save my February statement it wouldn't work.
    I have tried to right click on the document, and there is no "Save As..." option. But like someone else posted, it's just a long gibberish type name in IE address bar.
    I also tried printing the document to a file, but that does not work either. It fails to bring up the dialog box asking the usual queations. I can print the document on my printer.
    I have spent several sessions with the credit card company website tech support people. Per their suggestions I have uninstalled and reinstalled Reader 9, they also had me delete cookies, change popup blocker settings, add security certificates, etc.
    None of that worked, and they tell me it's an Adobe problem.
    Like other posters I can save this same statement using my laptop with an earlier version of Reader. In my case Reader 7.
    Like Martin posted, and the credit card tech people suggested, I believe this is a Reader 9 problem.
    I hope someone has a fix.
    Thanks,

  • Exit button - Germany Personal data service does not work

    Hi all,
    We just upgraded our portal to EP7 Sp22 with 1.3 ESS Business Package and 603 XSS components in the back-end.
    In testing Germany and all countries that use the Germany personal data service, the Exit button on all screens (Overview, Edit, Review and Save, Confirmation) does not work. The Exit button, when selected, keeps the user on the same screen. 
    I am not sure where the button is configured, but it should always take us back to the page from where the service was launched.  So if I accessed through the Overview page or Personal Information page, and then click on the exit button, I should be taken back to one of those pages.
    Where can we configure the exit button for the German Personal data service, so that it works and takes the user back to the page where they started.....?
    Cheers!, Neeta

    Hi,
    The Germany personal data service is the only one where the exit button is not working. All other countries are testing fine.
    Is it a customization issue on the back-end? The resource in spro for germany is configured with the pcd link of the german personal data i-view.
    The other countries are also customized in the back-end with the pcd link of the appropriate i-view.
    Regards, Neeta

  • "save as" won´t work

    please help just downloaded the free trial of photoshop cs6 but the save as button doesn´t work everything else does.

    Hi John,
    Sorry I was not clear.
    No it is not greyed out and it does not throw up a dialogue box.
    I simply go to file>save as in ps and nothing happens. Even if I click it 10 times nothing opens. All other functions work properly except "save as". Even only "save" works, but "save as" does not work.
    By the way, I don't know if you need this info but I am working on a mini laptop Toshiba with Windows 7 Home edition.
    thanks

    When trying to PDF a webpage into a PDF, it does not work, I go through all the steps as normal, and It does nothing. I can repeat my action, where instead of "printing" to adobe, it saves the file, which it doesn't save it at all. I can't even find the original in my work folder. I need to know how to stop this from happeing and get it back to the way it has been working he last 6 months since i purchased this program.

    Hi pissedadobeuser,
    Does this issue occur with any particular web page?
    Are you able to print the webpage to 'Adobe PDF' to convert it to pdf.
    Which Browser version, OS version and Acrobat version are you using?

  • Hello, the 'Save As' dialog box used to allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory when the focus is in the folder contents box but it does not work any more, please help.

    Hello, the 'Save As' dialog box used to allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory when the focus is in the folder contents box but it does not work any more, please help. BTW the same 'Save As' dialog in other applications still allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory.

    cor-el,
    I kept forgetting and procrastinating about following your instructions, since I have internet access only for limited amounts of time and usually I am busy with important tasks when I am.
    Out of the blue, the problem corrected itself (the Save As box started to open full screen, then shrunk down to a normal size and the edges can now be dragged to a custom size).
    Even the copy and paste problem in the filenaming area seems to have been less troublesome lately even though there have been no updates to Firefox in a few weeks.
    Even though I marked the solution as not helpful, the problem has in fact been resolved. I will save the solution instructions in case the issue returns.

    I'm afraid that your choice if names is the problem. Try "RoomSched2X", or similar, and let us know how it goes. If that works you can try some other names of your own choosing.

  • Save a published Access services database site as a template with contents does not work

    Hi
    I have a Access site on the SharePoint. I wanted the site to be duplicated to another subsite, I then did the usual - save site as a template with contents and made a copy of it, however it does not work. I have been getting the error as stated below
     error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
    Query execution failed for dataset 'Default'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand)
    For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
    However, it works if I make a local copy and publish it to the subsite? How does access services work on SharePoint and why the template option can't be chosen.
