Save as is gone in Lion

Where did the "save as" go? I just want to save my file as an other name. When I use duplicate, the warning: “Unsaved Pages Document.pages” couldn’t be moved because you don’t have permission to access “Autosave Information”. pops-up! I tried even the "old" commands, but nothing. I even "unlocked" the file in info. Is this because of a setting in Lion? Thanks in advance, Jack

  • Screen saver won't start since Lion upgrade. Two different machines, same issue.

    Screen saver won't start since Lion upgrade. Two different machines, same issue. Help

    For anyone following this thread, I've found a solution to my problem. Turns out that a cute widget called FishTank appears to be the culprit. With it running in Dashboard (even when I don't see Dashboard) the Screensaver and Sleep functions don't work. I turned it off, not because I'm clever, just because I tired of it, and voilà, Screensaver and Sleep are now working. It can stay in my widgets list without any problem, it just can't be turned on. I'm going to delete it anyway, however.
    Hope this points the way to solutions for some of the rest of you!
    Cheers!

  • Just updated to v3.6.13 and my ability to save bookmarks is gone. Why?

    Firefox automatically updated to version 3.6.13 and my ability to save bookmarks is gone. I go to "Bookmark this page" and nothing happens. It happens on both computers I have: Windows 7 and Windows XP.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

  • Simultaneous trackpad gestures gone in Lion

    I used to be able to perform trackpad gestures at the same time as clicking down on the trackpad. This has gone in Lion; now when you click, no gestures can be performed at the same time. Can this be turned back on?
    Examples of where I used to use it (and I did it a LOT):
    • Click down on a file, then with my other hand I'd do a 4 finger swipe up to show the desktop. This is an easy way to drag files to folder on the desktop/pen drives etc.. without having to do it in finder.
    • Same as above, but with a 4 finger swipe down to being up Expose. When dragging files in/out/to/from different applications, it's nice to be able to do this all from the trackpad.
    I know for the second one I can just press F3 to bring up mission control, and there's probably an easy solution for the desktop as well, but it just seems weird that since upgrading to the new OS, I actually lose functionality from the trackpad.

    I was having the same problem, I found a fix by changing the preferences to without inertia and after a reboot it fixed the problem, I can now scroll with inertia.  Looks like a .plist got jumbled.

  • What happened to "Save As" for pdfs in Lion?

    What happened to "Save As" for pdfs in Lion? Now there's "Save a Version" which doens't appear to do anything, and Duplicate, which seems redundant...
    How is this new approach saving me time?

    It's not, but it's Apple.
    Apple's approach with its Versions and Autosave features is to do away with the need to Save As altogether since the system's default "Save" feature already does this.
    As you make changes to a document, the system should continuously save all prior versions of it automatically, and you should be able to access these at any time and then duplicate it to continue working. In this way, the system is to an extent always performing "Save As" commands and leaving prior versions in the past, so instead of proactively saving a new copy to preserve your current layout, this layout should exist as-is which you can go to by browsing the saved versions, and then duplicating to a new document to continue working if needed.

  • Is it possible to disable the trackpad when a wireless or usb mouse is present? With Lion 10.7.2, I can not find the checkbox that was there before I installed Lion. Is the option gone on Lion?

    There is no BIOS in OS X. There is only the EFI stored in ROM that is not user modifiable. OS X is probably checking Bay 0 for the boot drive since that is where it should be. It won't check the Tempo drive since it is treated like an external drive. I suggest you open Startup Disk preferences to see if the Tempo device is selected as the boot device. If it isn't, then select it. That will probably shave off a few seconds in the startup time.

    You can but only in TextEdit and Preview and only if you have access to a Snow Leopard installation. Check out the link near the end of this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3745201?start=0&tstart=0 and then proceed at your own risk.

  • Save as is gone!

    I know it's been a couple years, but I just can't get used to 'Save As' being replaced by Duplicate or save a version. No other software is using it, it makes no sense to change it. It's a giant PIA.

    Save As was removed in Lion but was returned in Mountain Lion last year. If you have upgraded to Mountain Lion & Pages 4.2, Mende's directions will work. If you haven't upgraded, do so.

  • Screen saver no longer working after Lion upgrade.

    Hi,
    After standard upgrade about 2 weeks ago (mid July 2012) the screen saver no longer works. I mean I can certainly access the application and the desktop can be made to cycle through different photos etc. But when I configure the screen saver it just refuses to go into screen saver mode at all.
    I'm not seeing too much occurance of this through the postings which is a bit worrisome as I'd thought this would be a much wider issue.
    Cheers,
    Herbie

  • Can't save pdf's in Safari/Lion

    Before the problematic ridden Lion OS, I was always able to save a pdf page in Safari simpy be Save or Save as.  Now I always get the annoying message ''File xxxx can not be exported as xxxx.pdf".   What?  Been doing this for years until the new OS.  Is there a magic setting somewhere to be able to save?
    Getting very disappointed with this OS.
    "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

    Back up all data.
    Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Mavericks Save As function gone!!

    This is the first time I've written in one of these but I'm so frustrated by Mavericks!  I updated and everything that I knew before has changed and has slowed my whole work load down.  First off.......where the **** is the "Save As" funciton now for a document.  The only field I can find in "Rename".  It's a real pain in the butt when an update is made and you have to spend ours on google/trouble shooting sections just to work out how to do simple tasks.  Apple you really aren't making things easy for your regular users.
    Can anyone tell me where the "Save As" function has gone?

    You can put it back by creating a keyboard shortcut for it.
    System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > App Shortcuts
    and create a new one by clicking on the '+' button.
    Make it exactly 'Save As...' and the keyboard shortcut SHIFT+COMMAND+S
    Now it will be avaliable in you menu items, or by using the shortcut.

  • Screen Saver picture location in Mountain Lion?

    I was just looking at the Screen Saver tab in System Preferences. And found that photos from the "National Geographic" and "Aerial" sources are excellent photos and I want to choose the once I like to make a customised screen saver slideshow. Does anyone know how to access to those photos in Mountain Lion? I've tried /System/Library/Screen Saver and they are just screen savers but not the photos themselves.

    I went to that website and it does not work?  I have Mountain Lion on a 2011 Macbook Pro.  My library folder was hidden so I looked up how to "unhide" it and now I can access my library.  I followed all those instructions i.s "Macintosh HD > System > Library > Frameworks > Screensaver.framework > Versions > A > Resources > Default Collections" BUT, I do not have a "Frameworks Folder" or anything after that step for that matter.  I have a "Screen Saver" folder but it is empty?  Any suggestions guys??!

  • Why did they remove "Save As..." from Lion?  Frustrating!!!

    Tried to save my Numbers spreadsheet under a different name. No "Save As..."
    So, had to look for an answer. Wasting time...
    Found I have to use Duplicate.... what a waste of time! Why do they change stuff that has been standard for years! And it worked! Fixing stuff that wasn't broken!! And then you don't find out about it until you need it.

    Duplicate is not really the same thing. At least I haven't found it is. Now I'm very new to Lion and haven't found all of it's New Features yet. But it's frustrating trying to figure out what they've done to Work Flow that has been established for years. For example
    I have a spreadsheet that I want to save under a different name... not just the same name with Copy appended. But in Lion... now I'm forced to Duplicate... Here's the Flow now:
    Duplicate
    Close duplicated file
    Go to Finder, find the Copy, change the name to the one I want.
    Go back to Numbers.
    File Open (thank goodness they kept that Control!)
    Find the file I just changed the name of
    Open
    Now, is that efficient, or what?
    Wasn't it MUCH simpler using "Save As..."!! One step, versus Six!!
    What am I missing?
