Save function grayed out

Hi.
I am using Acrobat Pro 9 and the save function via file menu is grayed out for All documents.
The toolbar save button is also grayed out for All documents.
However, I can use the Save As function via the file menu.
It is annoying that I cannot just "save."
I'd appreciate it if can someone explain this? And help me please?
Thanks.

I do have both; however, I am sure I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro open because
it says
that in the window and in the help tab.
I checked the security manager, nothing is apparent.
In addition, I am able to use the Save As function, just not the Save
function or the Save button in the toolbar.
It is annoying that I have to go to File>Save As> then press ok.

  • Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro Save button grayed out

    I have a user with Windows 7 with a fresh install of Adobe acrobat 8 pro and everytime you open a pdf and type in it the Save button is grayed out. You can go to Save file as but why is the Save button grayed out? I have ran updates and even removed it again and reinstalled still the Save button is grayed out? I even created a new pdf with just test word in it and saved it to desktop the button was still grayed out when i reopened it.

    Only the fully updated Acrobat 9 and Acrobat X products support use under Windows 7.

    Custom will show automatically as soon as you just edit some options. So just go ahead, you don't need to select "custom"

  • HT3678 I purchased Quick time pro, went through the steps above. When I go to save the video save is grayed out and it says I need to purchase quicktime pro.

    I purchased Quick time pro, went through the steps above to install.
    When I go to save the video save is grayed out and it says I need to purchase quicktime pro.

    Quicktime Pro will do full screen streaming videos that are compatible with Quicktime installed Codecs. If the video of the Olympics on the website has a specific URL to go straight to the video, then yes, you can call upon it with Quicktime Pro's player and then watch it fullscreen.
    If the video of the Olympics was embedded such a way that you can't find the direct link to the video, then the limitation is how the webpage is designed. Thanks to Flip4Mac, there is now also a Windows Media codec you can install for Quicktime as well:
    http://www.flip4mac.com/wmv_download.htm
    Although some video software like Elgato's EyeTV don't work with it yet. If you are using Elgato's software, don't download it, and rather download Windows Media Player for Mac OS X:
    http://tinyurl.com/26pxg
    if the video is in Windows Media.
    If the video is in Realplayer, click on the Realplayer Free button on the upper right corner of:
    http://www.real.com/player/?src=realaudio
    You can enter a dummy address and password if you don't want Real's offers.
    If it is still a question of not being able to determine the true link to the video, try using different Mac web browsers to see what result you get:

  • Web ADI Create Document - Short Cut Save to Form  Function Grayed Out

    How do I "ungray" Save to Form Function to allow a save?
    RDBMS 10.2.0.4.0
    Apps 11.5.10.2
    Only GL and Desktop ADI
    Oracle on Demand Customer - does not give us SysAdmin Responsiblities
    We have:
    Applicatin Adiministrator does not have Application> Funcitons
    Application Developer has Application>Forms and Function
    Setup Web ADI super user menu with Create Documents, Define Layout, Define Mapping, Manage Documents
    Setup options and "Hidden" Enter Journals
    Thanks for you help,
    Dale

    I still have no response or answers
    Refer the section "Creating Form Functions Using the Create Document Page Flow" in Oracle Web Applications Desktop Integrator Implementation and Administration Guide. User to have system administrator responsibility assigned to have this feature enabled as this is a SysAdmin task.
    THE BIG QUESTION - since "Oracle on Demand" will not allow their users to have System Administrator, how can I add the required functionality to the supplied Application Administrator and resolve the questions below?
    Problem Description:
    Web ADI – Create Document, Save to Form Function is grayed out, therefore it can not be used
    1. How do we enable Web ADI functionality to Create document and Save to Form Function?
    2. Once saved to form function how to we navigate to Application>Functions?
    3. Once the Short cut is saved to the Form Function, how do we attach to a user’s responsibility?
    We have only Application Administrator with no Applications> Functions menu, however we do have in our test instance Application Developer with Applications>Forms and Functions, but it does not appear to have the same rights as SysAdmin. I tried adding the menu functions simular to SysAdmin to Application Administrator but no luck unlocking (ungraying) the form.

  • Edit functions grayed out in QT 7 Pro?

    MY digital camera .avi files are editable within QT 7 Pro, until I save them, and they become .mov files. Then, I cannot edit or resave. All of these functions are grayed out. I have tried saving as "save", "save as", always as self-contained. I never had this problem in QT 6 Pro, or maybe before I upgraded my system software to OX 10.4.5.
    Any suggestions?
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    I have a couple of "thoughts" (maybe not answers).
    Do a get Info (command-I) on one of the saved .mov files. Look under permissions. See if for some reason you lost ownership. Click the little padlock icon and unlock it. Change permissions so that you are the owner and you have read write privileges. The other thought is, though it says it is a mov file, the actual file type may be otherwise. Try exporting your avi instead of saving it. Export as a QT movie. Try Movie to MPEG 4. Then see if you still have the same problem with that exported file. For some very difficult avi files, I convert it to DV (export to QT movie - DV). It's large but I can quickly edit it down (smoother and easier to edit in DV than avi) then re-export that finished file using one of the better compression codecs, like QT MPEG 4 or H264, or DivX if you have it (which I prefer).

  • CUIC 10.5 - Create Dashboards and Save AS Grayed Out?

    Hello, we recently upgraded to UCCX 10.5 and with it came the new Historical Reporting Administration web page, CUIC, (Cisco Unified Intelligence Center).
    I have no problem issuing permissions to EU's, (including myself) but there are functions within which aren't available.
    Such as Dashboard, all options are grayed out
    And the inability to save a report. Report Category and permissions are grayed out
    Are there more permissions somewhere in CCX which require modification? 
    Thank you to all in advance for your help.

    Hi
    The default permissions setup is a little couterintuitive. You need to log in with the default application administrator set up when you installed UCCX, not a CUCM end user with administrative rights on CCX.
    The default admin has access to assign the permissions you are looking for to other users.

  • "Edit" Functions Grayed Out and No Longer Work

    I have CS5 and have used it for several years now and it has served me well but suddenly, I find that many options (such as most "Edit" options within it are noy grayed-out and non-functional. I've uninstalled it and re-installed but the problem is still there. I can no longer find a phone number to get tech help like I used to and am now totally stuck with a useless product. Does anyone know a fix here?

    Jerry, thanks for the screen shots. As JJMack said, a preference reset might work. You might want to go to actions>edit on your post and remove the second picture. Looks like it has some personal info on it.
    Try resetting the Photoshop preference file: Hold Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Opt+Shift as you initiate Photoshop's startup. Select "yes" when asked if you would like to continue with reset.

  • Paste function grayed out

    Hi
    I am working on a survey using Adobe FormsCentral, purchased version (not the free version). Previously i was able to copy or cut, and paste portions of my form to new areas. Today the paste option is grayed out. If i click cut, the element i attempt to cut becomes grayed out, but i cannot paste it anywhere, or undo.
    I have tried re-starting both the chrome web browser, re-signing in to forms-central, re-booting the entire computer, tried both web-view and pdf view, tried making a copy of the entire survey. nothing. no ability to paste. I can copy and paste parts of the web to word doc, so i dont think it is my clipboard.
    the only difference i can see between today and a week ago when i last edited is that i now have five responses from my team collaborators who took the survey in order to give me feedback. could these responses somehow prevent copying or cutting/pasting?
    thanks for any help

    Hi Roman,
    I just tried it on another computer, which only had firefox (no chrome). It worked fine - i could once again cut and paste. As a test,  i downloaded chrome onto that computer, and low and behold, it did not work.
    Now i am back on my own computer, and can successfully get it to work with firefox. I guess chrome must have updated in the last week, and something is not working now. I had not thought to try another browser, since I had the functionality on chrome previously.
    Anyways, problem solved for me, i will just use firefox!
    Thanks again for your help.

  • Save button grayed out

    Kartz, any answer to this yet?  I have the same issue,  I open a file, make some changes, and the standard SAVE button is grayed out.  An asterik appears in the file name, so I know that means my change is acknowledged, but the Save button stays grayed out.

    Hi, Thomas. We'd like to help, but do need more information to do so.
    Where is your file stored?
    e.g. your Desktop, Documents folder, an external hard drive, network file share, etc.
    Does this issue occur all of the time, or only sometimes?
    What version of Dreamweaver are you using?
    On what operating system, including version?
    (e.g. Windows 7 64-bit Service Pack 1, Mac OS 10.6.8, etc.)
    As a comparison test, please create a new file in Dreamweaver using one of the included layouts (e.g. 3-column liquid), save the file to your Desktop, and then make a change. Does the same issue occur with this file at all?

  • Transform function grayed out in PS CC

    I had some text that I needed to rotate in PS CC (Win 7) and the Transform function on the drop down menu was grayed out.
    The Control-T shortcut didn't work either. No bounding box would appear so I couldn't rotate the text.
    I ended up saving my project to my hard drive, exited PS CC and then reopened PS CC and reopened my project. This time the Transform function was no longer grayed out and I could Transform/rotate my text.
    This has happened multiple times and has to be a PS CC bug.
    Is this issue being addressed by Adobe?

    And why do I have to prove it is a bug?
    Because you claimed it is a bug:
    This has happened multiple times and has to be a PS CC bug.
    This is not normal Photoshop behavior and shouldn't be happening. Ergo, it's a bug.
    Unexpected behaviour of an application does not automatically prove that behaviour to be a bug of that application.
    Can you provide the file for others to test?

  • Save option grayed out when saving as???

    I am just beginning the tutorial for FCP 5.1.2 but don't seem to be able to save the new tutorial project as the button for "save" is gray, not blue and therefore inaccessible. Also note that the format button in the same window with project as the default is also gray and inaccessible. Any thoughts as to how to get past this road block?
    thanks,
    Ol Pappy Joe

    Thanks for responding. I think I have it all copied to my hard drive, at least the tutorial folder (Final Cut Studio Training) and something called Video-TS - they are both on an external LaCie and I am running the tutorial DVD off an external DVD player while performing the tutorial on my G5 where the FCP app is located. After I navigate to the Tutorial folder on the LaCie and find the Edit, then Project folders and try to save, the buttons for saving are gray???
    Any more thoughts?
    Thanks again.

  • Using Safari 5.1.7, I found a book on a web site that is free and downloadable, but when I click Save As, the Save button is grayed out.

    Today (1/11/13) I found an online book, a .pdf file ( a math book from the Univ. of MI) that is advertised as free and downloadable. However, when in Safari I click on File/Save As, the window that opens has the Save button grayed out. The window opens with "Export as ..., and the name of the pdf file appears in the export window.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Update:  changed the AppleScript to add a one second delay between entering the file name and hitting return in the save dialog. Seems to be working now. I guess hitting save so quickly after the dialog popped up was fubaring things.  Still wonder why...

  • Save for web and devices - grayed out. Why?

    Hi. I just bought a new computer, new hard drives, etc.
    So, I had to reinstall Windows XP pro and all my software applications, which includes Adobe Creative Suite Design (standard edition). All loaded well and my computer is up and running nicely.
    only one problem.... in Photoshop the "Save for web and devices..." function is grayed out and unavailable. :-(
    This is a feature I use quite a lot. Before I try uninstalling and re-installing, which, as you probably know is a lengthy process with these Adobe products, I'd like to first verify if this is a known problem and/or something I can deal with without re-installing Photoshop. I did a quick Google search, but couldn't find anything useful. Did find one post in some different forum by someone who described a problem similar to this one, but didn't receive an answer.
    If anyone can help me out, I'd really appreciate it.
    Thanks.

    You would get this if your files were 16bit or multichannel.
