Save As function in Labview 8.6

I am not able to get the "save as" duplicate all dependences function to work as I assumed it would.
The function will not allow me to utilize the *.lvlib files names in the project I am copying from into the new project. It gives me an box with "name is already open in memory".
If I change the names and then try to open the new project it says it can't find the new names and is looking for the original names.
I am trying to move the project from my development system (XP) to a newer lab system (XP) to be able to work closer to the machine that the project will be utilized on.
Both systems are running Labveiw 8.6 (just upgraded last week) and I need to make this happen soon.

Problems with "Save as" function in CS6

Hi,
One of our employees uses Adobe CS6 and has discovered a problem when they try to use the "save As" function.
The problem arises when trying to assign filesnames that have a fullstop in them(typically to indicate version numbers) and this then seems to confused with the file extension.
Is there a workaround or setting within the product that can fix this issue?
Cheers,
Andrew

This has nothing to do with Adobe, this is a general limitation in your operating system's file naming conventions. Some special characters simply are not allowed or reserved by the operating system itself. Since you didn't bother to provide any system info, nobody can advise specifically, but it's probably normal within the bounds of whatever OS you use and the respective region/ language settings.

File download "save as" function doesn't work correctly

I am using Firefox 24.3.0 ESR on Linux LXLE 12.04.3. I have problems downloading some files from some sites. After some investigation I found that the files have been given the generic MIME type octet-stream by the server. Presumably this is to encourage me to download the file rather than have it open automatically in the browser.
For instance, if downloading one of these files that is a pdf file, left click gives me the standard box that allows me to choose to open the file in the default application or "save as". Once I do the left click, I can see that the file immediately starts to download in the background (network activity). If I wish to open it in the default application, it works. The green download arrow flashes and eventually the default application opens with the downloaded file when the download is complete. The download is then listed in my download library.
If I select "save as" and my preference is set to download files to a fixed directory, it ignores the directory they should go to and places them in my home directory. The green download arrow flashes and again records the download in the download library.
If I set the preference to "always ask me where to save files" then when I click on "save as" nothing happens. The green download arrow doesn't flinch and nothing appears in the download library.
After hunting around I found that the file has actually downloaded to my /tmp directory. Clearly that was the background activity mentioned above. The name of the file in the /tmp directory is made up of seemingly random characters and I can retrieve it from there but this isn't exactly ideal and I would like this to work the way it is supposed to. i.e. I want to be able to click on "save as" and select where I want the file to be downloaded to (and it to go there).
What could be causing this behaviour and how do I get the "save as" function to work?

jscher:
Thanks. The /tmp and home directories are on the same partition as the main operating system. The Downloads directory is actually set up as a sub-directory of the home one but is a symbolic link to a NAS drive. It works fine for other MIME types. It is just when web sites use the application/octet-stream MIME type that I get this problem.
I checked the permissions and the /tmp and Downloads directories have full read write permissions for everyone. The home directory is the one with the restriction that only I can write to it.
So, I don't expect that sheds any light on the problem.
cor-el:
Thanks. I meant to say in my first post (but pressed the button before it got in) that I actually created a completely new Firefox profile and the problem is still there. Sorry, I should have included that.
The only difference with the fresh profile is that the "open in default application" isn't available, presumably because no default application has been assigned. The "save as" behaviour is still the same.
So, if the problem exists in a pristine profile, it looks like there is something deeper wrong.

Save AS Function Not working properly

Hi,
I have a weird problem in Adobe Acrobat 7.1. under Windows 7 (64 bit version).
When i open a document i often want to Save it with the SAVE AS function as a different name. To simplify the explenation , this is what i do :
1) Open pdf (either from local drive or internet)
2) Click SAVE AS
3) Browse to the location where you want to save the file.
3) Then i click an existing Filename and change e.g. the last digit. e.g. if TEST.pdf exists i click it, edit it and change it to TEXT2.pdf.
Now i always get the answer : Do you want to overwrite TEST.pdf. It never shows TEST2.pdf.
I tried this for locally stored pdf, internet downloaded pdf's.... It always wants to overwrite the original file.
ANYBODY any clue what this problem could be and how to solve it ?
Greetings,

Hi,
Yes, typing a new name works. But, not selecting first an old name and then
retyping to a new name. That will not work.
Greetings,

Acrobat Pro "save as" function in the file menu does not show the current directory of the file

I have installed CC but Acrobat Pro gives me headaches.
The "save as" function in the file menu does not show the current directory of the file but something I have worked on in the past.
It forces me to navigates through my hard disk for this very straightforward thing in normal conditions. I precise: Acrobat is the only software reacting like that.
I use Windows7 professional 64bits.

I use what seems to be the latest version available on the Cloud:
To illustrate my point, I open a directory with explorer and double-click on the only PDF in there:
So here it is, open:
When I do a "Save as", it takes me to a totally different place on the disk!
Very annoying...
Thanks for your time!

that's not really true. you can make an email yourself, add some images to it if you want and customize it to your liking. you can save that as stationery. you can also make an html document using your favorite html editor, open it in safari and do command+i. this will open it in Mail and you can save it as stationery from there. you just can't easily customize the premade templates right from Mail. you can do it using the links I gave you though.

Original document should not copy thro save as Function in WORD & EXCEL

Hi,
When the microsoft originals like Word or XL file are displayed using ECL viewer in document display transaction (CV03N), the originals can be copied to local disc using " SAVE AS" function in microsoft word and excel menu. Is there any option to make those button in display mode.
Please suggest.
Regards
Chandrasekaran

Hi
SAP DMS and also ECL Viewer & Office viewer does not have any authorization object for controlling "save as.." function.
All existing authorization objects are related to Display originals. It means that if users have authorization object for Display an original, also they can "save as" this original.
But you can set "save as" to gray (display) with ABAP codes by changing related screens.

Save As Function Problems

Hi Guys
I hope you can help me, I'm fairly new to the MAC version of Excel and have always previously used Windows.
I recently purchased a MacBook Air and am really happy with it apart from the fact that when I try to save an Excel document to a specific folder it doesn't let me choose that specific folder, it only gives me a handful of options for where I can save. Can
you tell me a fix or give me some advice on how I can expand folders further when using the Save As function as with Windows?

Hello,
The current forum is for Windows-based developers and Excel specific programming questions. I'd suggest asking non-programming Office for MAC related questions in
the corresponding forum thread instead.

I do have a 2008 version of Microsoft Office installed to save money, but that shouldn't affect things. I can't figure out the "rename" function either. Help?

Oh, and I also reset my NVRAM, my computer hasn't frozen again yet, so I'm not sure if it has made a difference.

Security - Preventing "Save As" Functionality

I am a user of Version 8 and have established password security in its strictest form. My problem is that the Save As functionality is not prevented. So you can perform a Save As file operation. The new file does retain all the password security that was established with the parent file. I need to find a way to prevent the Save As file operation from being performed. As it is, when posted a pdf on the web, the user can still save a copy to their system. I am having a tremendous problem with copyright infringement.
Any suggestions?

What is a bid process issues? The files is question are public display for free genealogical research. So you want the user to view the file, but not copy or edit the file. Preferentially, I would not be adverse to printing. But print to scan to reformat is an easy step; so no printing. I also wish to prevent screen extraction / mining / scraping whatever it is called. Which, I believe, would stop most data miners. But I use FreeFind to index my pdf data files for the search capability that is provided. Although FreeFind contends that it will block their index; I need to put it to the test. I would hate to lose search capabilities.
For the low to average user PDF security is a low cost and effective approach to copyright infringement.
