Save new documents as packages?

Can some one please explain this to me, I have turned it on in my settings as Pages kept making copy documents with out me asking it to it seems to be doing this whilst backing up the documents?
I am not actaully sure I want this setting turned on as I am confused to what it is really doing, if it was a thing I wanted I would have assumed it would be on as a defult setting.
Thanks

You are mixing this up a little. Packages has nothing to do with the saved "copies". The latter is a copy of an earlier version a saved document.
Documents can be saved as flat files or packages. I save as flat files. Packages can be opened and you can see the content of a file. I never leart which is the better option

  • TS2647 My keynote files keeps saving my document as a package even though "Save new documents as packages" is not selected. I also do not have Stuffit Expander on my system. Any ideas why this is happening?

    My Keynote file is NOT creating a single file but creating a folder with all the decks files.
    1. I have "Save new documents as packages" deselected in Keynote preferences. And…
    2. I do not have StuffIt Expander on my system.
    Any suggestions.

    OK, restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. It's possible one or more is corrupt. To restart in Safe Mode when you hear the start up tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar. Let it fully boot then restart normally and test.
    Also I am assuming you have checked Finder - Preferences  - General and see what boxes are checked in "Show these items on desktop." You can also mount an item in Disk Utility, simply highlight it and then look in the File menu for Mount.....

  • I can't save *new* documents back to SharePoint

    I can’t save *new* documents back to SharePoint. We have a SharePoint 2013 development environment, running on Windows Server 2012 and a Windows 7 Client Computer with Office 2010.
    Every time I click „new document“, SharePoint opens the corresponding template file in the client application (Word, Excel,…) So far, so good. When i select „Save“, the client application brings up a local save path on the client computer, not the SharePoint
    document library.
    I did some research and tried many approaches, but none of them worked.
    I installed the Desktop Experience Feature on the Windows Server 2012, added the server address to trusted sites, gave the user farm-administrator rights (to make sure it is no security problem) and switched the authentication mode for the web application.
    Does anyone know this problem and found a solution?

    Hi,
    For troubleshooting your issue, you can try to add a registry value to your local registry (on a machine with Office Applications installed through which you are accessing SharePoint sites):
    Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.
    Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters
    On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click Multi-String Value.
    Type AuthForwardServerList, and then press ENTER.
    On the Edit menu, click Modify.
    In the Value data box, type the URL of the server that hosts the Web share, and then click OK.
    Note You can also type a list of URLs in the Value data box. For more information, see the "Sample URL list" section in this article.
    Exit Registry Editor.

  • How do I by default save new documents in a particular folder?

    In OS10.3.9, how do I by default save new documents in a particular folder? I have created a new folder called new docs which I have put in the dock, and would like to save all new documents in that folder...
    Thanks,
    Michael

    ibisbill:
    I think you need to navigate to the Folder when you want to save. If you are saving documents created in Word, after a while Word may learn the location and go there.
    Incidentally, the folder in the Dock was created and resides elsewhere. That is where you will need to navigate to when you save.
    Good luck.

    Cannot save as or save new documents in Office:mac.

    Your profile says 10.7.3 which is Lion. 10.6 is Snow Leopard.
    If that's the case and you did a security update via software update last week that also caused problems for many. Apple have issued an update to that as well, version 1.1:

  • Unable to Save new documents in InDesign CS5

    I just upgraded from CS3 toCS5. I'm able to open old InDesign files and save but am not able to save a new document in CS5. I'm also not able to Undo. Any suggestions? Hoping this is an easy fix.

    Hi,
    Try re-creating the preferences.
    For windows Xp:
    Drag the "Version 6.0" folder from C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\ to the desktop.
    Drag  the "Caches" folder from C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Local  Settings\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\Version 6.0 to the desktop.
    For Windows Vista:
    Drag the "Version 6.0" folder from C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\ to the desktop.
    Drag the "Version 6.0" folder from C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe\InDesign\.
    For MAC:
    Drag the "Version 6.0" folder from Users/[user name]/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign/ to the desktop.
    Drag the "Version 6.0" folder from Users/[user name]/Library/Caches/Adobe InDesign/ to the desktop.
    If this dosen't work tried creating new user account with Admin rights.

  • Cannot Save New Document to SP2010 from Excel 2007

    I have two users who cannot save a new file from Excel 2007 to Sharepoint 2010 using the network share path. They receive the following error:
    You cannot save the file you selected. The folder you selected is not an actual file system location. 
    However, other users can save this way with not trouble at all. 
    When they have the Excel file open, they go to Save As... and the window opens. Then they type in the path to the Sharepoint library where they want to save the file: \\intranet\DavWWWRoot\site\library\
    At this point, they should be able to click the Save button and the window will refresh to the Sharepoint library. They would then be able to enter the name of the file and click the Save button again. However, when they click the Save button the first time
    to refresh the window, nothing updates and the path they just typed goes away.
    My first thought was an issue with permissions, but I've checked and double checked that they are in the correct group.
    Then I decided to go even more basic and have them use Windows Explorer to browse to the location. They were able to.
    I then had them right click within Windows Explorer, select New, and click Text Document. Not only were they able to create the new text file, but I confirmed it updated
    the Sharepoint library successfully. So, that obviously rules out any issues with permissions.
    Out of sheer frustration, I even tried mapping a network drive to the Sharepoint library and having them save to the mapped drive location, which of course yielded the exact same error.
    I have also double checked that the Webclient service is running on the machines. 
    One more piece to note is that these two users are still running XP. They'll be upgraded to Win7 later this year, but this needs to work before then.
    Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Did the issue only occur in Excel? What about the other Office suits?
    Please copy the site URL to the File name Text Box in the Save as window. Like:
    http://intranet\site\library

  • How do I save NEW documents from Office 2011 to SP2010?

    Hi,
    We are using Office 2011 for Mac, with Safari and SP2010 for collaboration room and document libraries.
    Accessing, opening, reading and saving existing documents from SP2010 works all fine.
    But if I, after having opened and edited a Word document, want to do a "save as" to Sharepoint, how do I do it without having to temporarily store the document somewhere else.
    The "Share - Save to Sharepoint" in Office could be useful if I only could browse thru the folder hierarchy in the saved Sharepoint Locations. I have too many folder to add them all as "Sharepoint Locations".
    I have also tried to MS Document Connection, but as long as I cannot see the Document Connection from Office, it doesn't help much.
    Any advice?.

    I'm not a Mac user, that's my caveat, however there is a button on the ribbon for SharePoint Document Libraries on the Library Tab called Connect To Office.
    If that works with Office 2011 you'll start seeing your SharePoint site as a place where you can store documents in Office.
    Otherwise, you need to click "New" in teh library itself and have SharePoint open Office for you.

  • I synced with new computer, lost apps. reinstalled but Office HD docs that we're not lost when I reinstalled will not cut and paste. Will I need to use only new documents to cut and paste?

    I synced my IPad2 with a new computer and lost all apps. I reinstalled apps. When I reinstalled the Office2HD, all documents were still ther, but I am trying to cut and paste one and it is not allowing? Will I need to save new documents there for this function to work?

    There are dozens of possibilities, Lisa.
    Which C50-A do you have? There is a label on the bottom.
    What security applications do you have installed? Webroot is a common offender.
    Do you have Microsoft Office installed? If so, which version?
    Do you use Bluetooth?

  • Hate the new document icons...

    Hello,
    Just bought a macbook and iWork '09. When I create and save new documents -- in Keynote, Pages, or Numbers -- the icon it assigns to the document isn't the nice little Keynote podium (or inkwell and pen for Pages, or bar graph for Numbers), but a blah sort of black box w/ white frame.
    Is there a way for me to get it to use the nicer icons?

    This has nothing to do with the Keynote (or other iWork) application. Your Mac is observing the Finder view settings currently in effect.
    To change it, click on the desktop, then go to the View menu and choose "Show View Options". Make sure the "Show icon preview" item is not checked.

  • I am trying to save a document with the new pages and it will only save as a zip file any ideas on how to change this?

    I am trying to save a document with the new Pages and it is only saving as a ZIP file anyone know how to fix this or choose a different file type?

    Take a look at the FileSelector
    First make sure the FileSelector is expanded so you can see the directory and sidebar. That's what the little disclosure triangle up by the filename is for. Once the FS has been expanded to look like the above picture, look to see what subdirectory has been selected. Use the SideBar to select an appropriate one.

  • CS5 "save as" format menu changed when creating new document

    Hi,
    When creating a new document in photoshop CS5 i cannot save as a jpeg or png or the other large list of file types i used to have in the save as format menu,
    below is what i used to be able to save as but can only do this when actually opening a jpeg file and not when creating a new document
    this is the options i have now
    i haven't been using photoshop that long and am no genius with pc's so i'm a little lost here, does anyone know why this has happened and if there is a solution to this, your help will be greatly appreciated. my spec are windows 7 64bit, core i7, nvidia 260gtx.

    It looks as if you are creating documents in a format incompatible with certain file types.
    For example, check in the New dialog that it is set for RGB Color – 8-bit.

  • I can't open old Word documents or save new ones. Help!

    I'm not tech savvy at all and I really need Word for school. Please help if you can.
    Whenever I'm trying to open an old file I get:
    "File is locked for editing.
    Locked by: another user
    Filename: "insert name"
    You can open file in read only"
    When I click "read only" I get:
    "Word cannot open document. The document might be in use, the document might not be a valid Word document, or the filename might contain invalid characters."
    When I try to save a new file I get:
    "Word cannot save this document due to a naming or permission error on the destination volume."

  • After migrating to a new MBP, when saving or opening documents, I sometimes (but not always) get a warning such as: "Word cannot save this document due to a naming or permissions error on the destination volume." Can someone please explain?

    I recently migrated from a MBP with OS 10.6 to a MCB with OS 10.8. Some glitches are popping up. Here's the one on my mind at the moment:
    When saving or opening documents, I get a warning such as: "Word cannot save this document due to a naming or permissions error on the destination volume." Can someone please explain?

    Since this is isolated to a single file, try exporting it to Interchange Format (.inx), then open and save the resulting file as a new InDesign file.
    Since the problem occurs during export, that may not be possible. Another option to try would be to copy all elements, page by page, and "paste in place" into a new document the same size. If you used layers, be sure to enable "paste remembers layers" in the layers panel menu.
    This kind of problem is often indicative of an underlying font issue. You said there are only three fonts, and you should verify that in Type > Find Font... Try replacing, at least temporarily the fonts in use with something else that you know to be reliable from other documents. You might want to do this before the other steps.

  • It appears "save as" was removed in the creation of Yosemite.  How can I save a spreadsheet as a new document and then change all the data

    "save as" was removed in the creation of Yosemite (File > Save as)  How can I save an existing spreadsheet so that I can modify the data, rename it , and save it as a new document?

    rkaufmann87
    To address the first part of your response; as unnecessary as it was; save as has not been gone for years!!  It is predicated on the operating system in play on ones computer.  The software that I was using as recent as six months ago had a "Save as" option in the menu bar.  Further, as you may have noted in "babowa's response it is clear that it still exists to this day in apple's most recent software "Yosemite 10.10.2.  This appears to be true whether talking about numbers or pages (apps.)  Oh, and by the way I am employing the most recent versions offered by Apple!  Your car may be five years old but I am sure you still find it very useful.  Case and point; it's not gone!!!
