"Save as..." window - file name bug

http://forums.adobe.com/message/3030230
I have the same problem.
I'm using Windows XP SP3 Professional (x86). Audition version 3.0, build 7283.0. My copy is registered.
Some additional notes:
File format doesn't matter; I've tried WAV, MP3 and FLAC.
I have tried reinstalling Audition. I uninstalled it via a program called Revo Uninstaller. I've searched through the registry after uninstallation, and could not find any leftover keys or values.
I'm not using any visual themes. The Windows service "Themes" is disabled.
Any idea how to solve this?

You've provided good information in describing your situation, thanks. There's more likelihood that this is a Windows or graphics driver problem than with Audition. Many of us run it on XP sp3 with great success. I would recommend the following:
--make sure all Windows updates are current
--check your graphics card for an updated driver
--less likely to address this specific problem, but it can't hurt, is to install the Audition 3.01 update available here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=92&platform=Windows. This update is highly recommended anyway.
Should you have success with any of these options, please report which was helpful!

How do I get PDF files to *automatically* save as the file name provided by the source?

When I download a PDF file in Firefox, the file name changes from whatever name source used (e.g, important-report.pdf) to a miscellaneous group of characters (e.g., X2ba5zt.pdf). I often want to save the file using the 'source' name. I realize that can so do by changing the file name, but I would like to know if there is a way to set the default so that the source file name is used.

I am not seeing that behaviour. If I right-click a link to a .pdf file, I get the file saved with the original filename.
Maybe one of the settings in about:config controls that?
pdfjs.previousHandler.preferredAction is a setting that has a value of 4 with my setup. I have no idea what that means, and I could not find any explanation anywhere. You could try using different numbers for that value and see if any make any difference. Why has nobody bothered to explain that setting anywhere?

How do I customizing the download pop up window file name?

I have a site that streams a PDF. The file name is not included in the URL. When I set my options to Save As for Adobe I am presented with the Download pop up box, but there is no extension in the box so when I double click the item it asks what file to open it with. So my question is, is it possible to be able to customize the name of the file being saved rather then letting the browser determine the name based on the URL?

A good solution, but I went one better - I got rid of the HP Printer and bough an Epson.
The problem no longer exists.

Sorting string like windows file name sorting

Hi everybody, I have a simple question.
I was trying to sort some file name in java
Let say we have a list of string which are :
1.txt
a.txt
2.txt
11.txt
a(1).txt
a(11).txt
a(2).txt
If i convert those strings as file names, and sort it by file name in the windows explorer the result is
1.txt
2.txt
11.txt
a(1).txt
a(2).txt
a(11).txt
a.txt
But if i enter those strings into an Arraylist and use Arrays.sort or Collections.sort, the result is
1.txt
11.txt
2.txt
a(1).txt
a(11).txt
a(2).txt
a.txt
Is there a way to achieve the string sort similar to windows rather than aplhabetically like the default sort of Arrays/Collection.
I have done some searching but only found problem regarding to different language character sorting which can be achieved using Collator but this was not my case. Has anybody encounter this issue ?
Any help is greatly appreciated
regards

If so, the try something like this (UNTESTED!):

    public int compare(String a, String b) {
        String[] tokensA = tokenize(withoutExtension(a));
        String[] tokensB = tokenize(withoutExtension(b));
        int max = Math.min(tokensA.length, tokensB.length);
        for(int i = 0; i < max; i++) {
            if(tokensA.equalsIgnoreCase(tokensB[i]))
continue;
else if(tokensA[i].matches("\\d+") && tokensB[i].matches("\\D+"))
return -1;
else if(tokensA[i].matches("\\D+") && tokensB[i].matches("\\d+"))
return 1;
else if(tokensA[i].matches("\\d+") && tokensB[i].matches("\\d+"))
return Integer.valueOf(tokensA[i])-Integer.valueOf(tokensB[i]);
else
return tokensA[i].compareTo(tokensB[i]);
return tokensA.length - tokensB.length;
private String[] tokenize(String s) {
List<String> tokens = new ArrayList<String>();
Matcher m = Pattern.compile("\\d+|\\D+").matcher(s);
while(m.find()) {
tokens.add(m.group());
return tokens.toArray(new String[]{});

Mac & windows file name sizes

I am using Dreamweaver 8 on the Mac for most all of my
commercial web development. I have a G5 connected to a local
network where I also run a Windows 2000 box as a web server to test
with. in a new project which I took over from another company they
have page names such as
new-england-lodging-2-doubles-1-twin.html
I downloaded the site and can see it all hunky-dorey on the
Mac. however when I try & upload these files to my testing
server, they won't go. I get the following error message:
new-england-lodging-2-doubles-1-twin.html - error occurred -
An error occurred - cannot put
new-england-lodging-2-doubles-1-twin.html. The specified path does
not exist.
of course the path DOES in fact exist. in addition I can
create a file with this name on the PC side with no difficulty.
however when I do so the file name is displayed on the Mac side
thus:
NEW-EN~2.HTM
obviously this is not at all useful!
any thoughts or workarounds for this? use of these file names
is a requirement on this site for SEO reasons. I would prefer not
to have to do the development on the PC for a variety of reasons.
thanks

That typically occures when reading a windows formatted disk.
How did you
download the images to the Mac? Did you just grab then from
the FTP server?
If so, the file names SHOULD have come across OK.

Use MacMini server for windows apps and save for windows files ?

My question : Office equiped mixed computers , aslo Windows and Mac,
Could we use MacMini server for both machines, working by windows apps and / or to save and work with windows files on MacMini server and with Mac as well?
We woud use it for normal office work and get it by internet from other places as well
windows apps: merchandising, invoice, word, excel, pictures editing, Outlook Express + the Mac apps
thnx ,
MACIren

In general what you can do is: in OS X, use Windows in virtualization (aka emulation), as a "virtual machine" with VMWare Fusion, Parallels, or Oracle VM Virtual box.
That way you have both operating system open side by side without having to reboot into one or the other operating system.
Not sure whether you need a Mac Mini Server per se to do that, I do that with my MacBook Pro for instance. But the server would help since it has a quad-core CPU (more cores that you can dedicate to the virtual macine), and you can put the virtual machine on the second harddrive for better disk access performance. Was there some particular reason you were thinking of the Mini Server -- do you want to use server side Windows apps?
Again I have that setup on my MacBook Pro using VMWare Fusion with an XP virtual machine. In the Windows, I only use Office 2003 and some company apps that are Windows only. With Fusion (and I'm sure the other apps can do it as well) you can set a "shared" folder so both Windows and Lion will see the contents of it for reading and writing. I believe with Fusion you can also do your entire Home directory, but I prefer to limit it to a single shared "work" folder.

Can't save a windows file when opened on a MAC

A colleague is updating some Flash files. I copied them to a
DVD and gave them to her. She transfered them to the MAC. She can
open them, but she can't save them. Has anyone ever heard of this?
Thanks in advance!!!
Rick

I think sometimes when transferring files off of Windows
written media the permissions can get messed up. Can she save them
with a new name?
Otherwise. In the finder (after copying off the DVD) select
an item and do get info.
At the bottom of the info window there should be a
permissions section. Make sure her account has read and
write.

Cannot save to this file name

I am working with CS3. My problem is that everytime I hit save on a document I get the following error message:
Cannot save to this filename. Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder.
This message seems to be coming up everytime I go to rewrite a file. I hit ok and then hit the save button one more time and it saves the message.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Are you saving to a network? Is a virus scanner/ protection tool running on your system? The issue most likely is caused by some of these processes locking files and only releasing them when you hit the save a second time (as the previous attempt will already cause a system request to update the timestamp)...

Save and make file name change

When I save as, I want the image to be the name of the file I type so that all subsequent changes can be saved only by clicking "save" and not having to browse to and rename the file EVERY TIME. Sometimes this works properly, sometimes it doesn't. It seems very random.
I think it has something to do with "save as a copy" but more often than not, that option is greyed out so I couldn't set it if I wanted to.

Photoshop invokes "Save As Copy" functionality when it senses you can't save all the things in your image document in the format you've chosen.
For example, if an image has layers, or channels beyond R, G, and B, or is in 16 bit mode, it will not be able to save all these things in a JPEG. Thus it invokes "Save As Copy" functionality, and makes the assumption you'd like to save the whole document, including all the extra stuff, in a separate master file in a format that can handle everything - e.g., .psd.
This leads to this (normal) behavior:
1. You work on a design or photo that has a bunch of fancy stuff in it (e.g., some layers, some masks, some extra channels, in 16 bit modes).
2. You Save As a master .psd file. This does NOT invoke Save As Copy, and DOES set the default save filename.
3. You work on it some more.
4. You Save As a .jpg file - for example to prepare for publishing it. This invokes Save As Copy and the default filename remains .psd.
5. You try to exit Photoshop and it tells you that you haven't saved your .psd master file, so you save it.
If you want the Save As operation to reset your default filename, flatten it, remove channels, lower color depth, or whatever to make it compatible with the format you're saving, so that Save As Copy isn't forced. Or Save As another different .psd or .tif that can handle all those features.
Hope this helps with understanding.

Why is Adobe 11.0.10 suddenly saying, "Cannot save to this file name"?

I've had no issues saving fillable PDFs that I've edited up until this week. I don't know what caused the change and I've tried researching the issue. Has anybody else experienced this and found a solution?

Thanks for your quick response! I'm saving to a network drive. I just tried
replicating the issue saving to the local drive and there was no error, but
typically I save on a network drive and it wasn't an issue previously.

How can I save the web page by using the Page Title as the file name ?

When i use Internet Explorer ,I can save the web page by using Page Title as the file name(as default no need to adjust anything). But when i use Firefox ,It can not use the Page Title to save as the file name. How can I do that like in Internet Explorer?

See:
*File Title: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/834
*Title Save: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/712

My CSS file name won't save & won't stay linked to my pages.

Hi there,
I moved my internal style sheet to an external style sheet and it won't save as the file name i give it, it saves as "untitled".
-i am unable to change file name in the code or directly on the file icon....it just reverts back to "untitled".
-i deceided oh well my style sheet will be called "untitled" and proceeded to work.
-i linked a few of my pages to "untitled" and saved them.
-this morninging when i opened my project up none of the styles were saved on any of the pages so i went to relink again then close and open them. the same thing accured, none of the styles were saved.
i am working in CS3
this is what i did to move my internal style sheet to an external style sheet
went to my CSS styles pannel and selected all
-selected all my rules
-command clicked on the rules and chose ""move to external rules"
- in the "move to external rules" dialogue box i chose - move rules to "a new style sheet" and click ok
- in my "save sheet file as" dialogue box i browse to the folder (assets) where i want to save my new style sheet and name it "styles.css"
this is what i did to link my pages to the external style sheet
in the CSS styles pannel i clicke dthe attach style sheet button
in the "attach external style sheet" dialogue box i browse to "untitled" and add as a link
note: the code to link to my external sheet is still in my code <link href="assets/untitled.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
any knowledge anybody can share with me? im new to dreamweaver...i am teaching myself so any help would be great. thanks!

The simplest way to create an external CSS file is to use File menu > New > CSS.
Open your HTML document in code view.
Cut or Ctrl+X the CSS rules - everything between the <style type="text/css"> and </style> tags.
Switch to the new CSS file and paste style rules into the blank page.
Hit Ctrl+S to save filename.css
Link external stylesheet to HTML document.

Unable to save document as (Flash CS5 - BUG - OSX)

I have upgraded my CS4 to CS5 on MAC OSX and i'm having problems saving new and existing fla files. It doesnt always do it but it's very anoying when you have done some work and are unable to save it.
I get this message:
unable to save document as (file name)
please try saving to a different filename or location.
even if i try to save as to a different location i get the same message, this ONLY happens in flash CS5 and does not do it on any other application or even flash CS4. To put it bluntly i am absolutely furious with this and when you pay this amount of money should not get this hassle for such a simple action.
I have tried phoneing the adobe support line and it's a joke, you can't even understand the operator to even get anywhere and i just gave up having to repeat myself and asking them to repeat themselves.
I would be grateful if someone out there knows an answer to this or have a contact email for adobe support that i can email them direct. As a flash developer it's critical i can get on with my work without worrying if my work will even save.
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: I can save files in CS5 as CS4 documents but not as CS5, this is so annoying.

I am having this same issue with Window 7 Professional 64 bit.
It seems I can reproduce it pretty reliably but have only seen it since I started working with trying to import and export runtime shared font libraries.
I create a new fla
I create a font asset in the library and set it to import and specify a relative path to the shared swf.
I save and test my swf and it works.
I go back into the font asset and change the location of the font swf to another relative path (this file is loaded into a shell so the raltive path will change).
After changing that import path I can no longer save the file even if I revert back to the previous value.
I have repeated this process a couple of times.

Camera raw 8.3.0.141 truncates file names

This is a recent thing.
I open jpg images from bridge cs6 into camera raw and save new versions from camera raw into a new folder.
Our incoming file names contain important data but not all of the name is written when I save jpg from camera raw.
file name length seems to max out at 60 characters or so.
THIS WAS NOT THE CASE SOME MONTHS AGO IN THIS MACHINE.
Our folder names are long also but the combined path + filename length rarely exceed 230 characters.
Our file naming system has worked for some years and photoshop does not truncate file names, only this latest camera raw.
This is on win 7 64 bit pro machine - our filenames do not need to be compatible with anything else whatever.
example of our file/folder naming lenghts on my win machine:
C:\AAliikkeet\02 xxxx oierjksinth\112255_ehhsyag somajrysen fgetrakunnan paievjerho_CO_10022014_til.73673\vlc\nietalahtn, naurvkustunr_bbseh syplamaiden syrdknhhar prifakehfo_IMG2722korjattu_cpy004_5000_02.jpg
the real names have been replaced with strings of corrensponding length so this long baby represents a long(ish) folder+filename combo in our systems.
This is a major new problem.
Any help appreciated - even the good old "use shorter file names, idiot" but that is not an option for me.
We are working in an industrial environment and systems - including file naming have been working OK for some years and I cannot change our systems just to please my latest camera raw.

Thank you for your kind advice and interest in my problem.
I tested:
c:\in\v -folder is the one that jpg is read
c:\in\vlc is folder that the camera raw saves jpg
original file name was:
HIETALAHTI, TENAVAMUSKARI_VAASAN SUOMALAISEN SEURAKUNNAN PÄIVÄKERHO_cpy004_5000_02.jpg
it is truncated into:
HIETALAHTI, TENAVAMUSKARI_VAASAN SUOMALAISEN SEURAKUNNAN P.jpg
I shortened the original file name and removed the scandinavian A with dots on top of it and the comma from ther file name:
HIETALAHTI TENAVAMUSK_VAASAN SUOMAL SRK PAIVAKERHO_cpy004_5000_02.jpg
truncates to:
HIETALAHTI TENAVAMUSK_VAASAN SUOMAL SRK PAIVAKERHO_cpy004_5.jpg
the scandinavian alphabet is not a problem (the file names are not always clipped in their position).but causes some extra truncating:
HIETALAHTI-TENAVAMUSKARI_VAASAN SUOMALAINEN PÄIVÄKERHO_CPY00.jpg turns into:
HIETALAHTI-TENAVAMUSKARI_VAASAN SUOMALAINEN PÄIVÄKERHO_CP.jpg
and
HIETALAHTI-TENAVAMUSKARI_VAASAN SUOMALAINEN PÄIVÄKERHO_CPY0.jpg into same
HIETALAHTI-TENAVAMUSKARI_VAASAN SUOMALAINEN PÄIVÄKERHO_CP.jpg
This is why I havent found a good rule in this.
In camera raw the whole file name shows under the preview image but in saving the image the file naming example is truncated.
Even the longest of our file names worked flawlessly for several years until maybe two weeks ago.
60 characters is top length that did not truncate in this testing

HT4221 Synched Photos from PC should be in File Name Order, not by last modified date

Since installing IOS 7 the sorting of my photos from my PC sent to my Iphone have become totally random.
Apple claims the files are by Last Date Modified.
I have a very detailed file naming system on my PC which makes Photo Retrieval by Date, Name, Subject easy.
Is there any software that recognizes the Windows File Name? The sequence file names given during SYNCH are useless.

When you import into iPhoto, each imported set goes into a folder called Last Import.
One way to do what you want without losing your organization:
iPhoto / File / Import to Library. Navigate to the first folder on the pc. and click on Import. The contents of the folder on the PC will all come together.
On the Mac the photos will be in the folder called Last Import.
On the Mac, create a new folder with the name you want. (File Menu / New folder)
Move the photos as a batch (select all) from the Last Import folder to the one you just named.
Do this as many time as you have folders.
