Saving all files in workspace

Is there a way to automatically save all the files in the workspace?
I have a bunch of files that have not been saved. I have an action that will save, and then close the currently selected files. But how can I get it to go on and save the rest of the files in the workspace?
If one file is saved and then closed, then some next file is opened. Isn't that a photoshop event that could trigger an action via the script events manager? How does that work?
What would work? What would automatically save each file in the workspace?
Thanks for your help.

Since you are posting this in a scripting group... Save (like File >
Save) and close each open document is pretty straight forward:
// SaveAll.jsx
#target photoshop
while (app.documents.length > 0)
var doc = app.activeDocument;
doc.save();
doc.close();

Save as project - default to saving all files?

Hi can you make logic default to saving all files when saving as a project or do you have to click copy all everytime you do this? Thanks, Ben

You only have to make your copy/leave/move choices the first time you 'save as project.' After that, it should take care of your choices without further intervention.

Preview is saving all files viewed while online

I am having several problems with Preview because it saves every single file I view while online, and while conducting research, this ends up being literally hundred of .pdfs some days. How do I turn off this automatic save function? Is it just a glitch in the system or is their a setting somewhere that can be adjusted? It is also saving the files in a folder which it should not be saving them in, but I cannot figure out to change the default folder for this automatic saving that should not be taking place. I have tried changing my default folder in Preferences for both Firefox and Safari, but it does not seem to have any effect on this automatic saving.
If I can't get this to stop, then I need to make Adobe Acrobat my default viewer. I have tried going into the Preferences of Firefox and Safari, but I still keep getting Preview popping up when I try to view .pdfs.
I am using Firefox verison 2.0.0.14 and Safari 3.1.1
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You don't want to view them in Preview or Acrobat either one, that requires downloading them, but...

Of course you can configure Acrobat 7/8 to view them online if you wish...

Firefox just started saving all files as firefox documents, why? how to fix?

It was actually working fine today.. but then it started doing this and it keeps doing this. Everytime I right click a link and hit save as. It ALWAYS saves it as a firefox document, no matter what it is. It can be a pic, an mp3, you name it and it saves it as a document. I tried typing .jpg at the end of files when I saved them and still that didn't do anything..
Please help. It's not doing this in internet explorer... But I don't like that browser lol

Why is Firefox saving all files in "firefox document" format?

When I try to download a file by 'save target as' the only option I get is to save the file in Firefox Document format ( url.htm ). Why is that happening?!

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

While saving a file, I have converted all my files to Pdf. This made everything inaccessible, even Explorer. I had to delete Adobe to get back to some of the previous files. I tried to restore system to previous, but I kept getting a pop up message that said I did not have enough shadow space. Does anyone have a solution? Greatly appreciate your help.

How to see all image types when saving an image without selecting "all files"every time

<blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
Please continue here: [[/questions/951766]]</blockquote>
Hallo, and thank you for reading this.
I am a person who saves a lot of images online and renames them in different folders in different names like B - 34 or G - 56. I have been working with firefox 10 for quite some time and it had a pretty handy bug (I guess) where I could save an image and firefox would just save the image in it's original type (JPEG,PNG etc) while "save as type" was empty.
It also always has shown all the image types in the folder where I save the images (except for GIF) and that helpes me quite a lot by saving me the trouble of selecting "all files" every time I save or going to the folder to rename every image.
Now this seems to be lacking in the newest firefox versions and my question is if I can set firefox to always show me all the image file types when saving an image, instead of only showing JPEG's when I try to save a JPEG.
Thank you for your time.

I suspect this is a Windows problem. I am surmising the FilePicker uses the Operating System or Desktop facilities. Does Windows 7 offer any other file categories like ''images'' ?
I do not normally use Windows 7, but may the option depend upon the directory being an indexed one, I ask after finding this thread ''Bring File types tab back'' [http://www.windows7taskforce.com/view/819]

How to see all image file types when saving images without selecting "all files"

Hallo, and thank you fom reading.
I am a person who saves a lot of images online in different folders with different names like G - 456 or F - 35.
I have been using firefox 10.0.2 for a long time because of a bug (I guess) that made it easier to save images.
When I saved an image it would always show me all the image files in any folder I wanted to save it, and that way making it easier for me to save files with the right names.
Now with the newer firefox (currently 19.0) whenever I try to save a JPEG I only see the JPEG files in the folder and only way to see the others is by selecting "save as type" all files, but with this I also see all the files that are not images.
This used to save me a lot of trouble and a bit of time but I dont see anything in the options menu that can help me. Is there a way to recreate this function?
Thank you for your time.

Need to see ALL files in folder when saving from Word 2003 OR Word 2013 program

Here is the issue.... A customer of mine has the need to save files in order (Communications with customers by date and time)
BUT..... when saving the file word does not let him see ALL the documents (.doc AND .docx) in the save dialog. (I know we could convert but there seems to be issues with the conversion, at least on the research I have done)
Is there a way for the Word save dialog box to display ALL the files in the selected folder? OR is this just an undocumented feature OR a WOW we never thought of that....
Thanks!
John

Hi,
When we save a Word document, the "Save As" dialog only displays these files which are the same type as the one we are trying to save. To display other types of files, select from the "Save as type" box, but I haven't realized there's a way to show
all types of files when saving. This is just how it works so far.
Thanks,
Melon Chen

DIAdem not saving all samples from TDMS file

Hello to all,
I have several large TDMS files (1.8Gb each) containing approx. 120 million sampels. When I try to open these fiels in Diadem it previews the correct amount of samples (120 Million), but when I try to save tha data in Matlab format it saves me only half the samples, 60 Million. Also, I have a Matlab script that opens the TDMS files and does exactly the same thing, it is not saving all samples.
Can you please advise me on this issue? Is there a way to automatically fragment large TDMS files into smaller ones?
Best regards,
Ion

Hello Jean Baptiste,
It seems your TDMS file is fine since you have the correct number of data in DIAdem.
It may comes from the conversion to the MatLab format. Maybe MatLab can't accept more than 60 millions data. You should ask that to the MatLab expert on their forum.
However, if you want to fragment your TDMS file, you have to do it manually in DIAdem, when you load the file into the Data Portal, or you can automate the function by using VBScript. (Last panel in DIAdem)
An other solution would be to fragment your TDMS file directly where you write it. (In LabVIEW maybe?)

All files saved to external HD in last 2 days are gone or corrupt.

The last couple days I've had specifically two whole folders and all files inside either go corrupt or missing on my external hard drive. At first I thought my external was just failing so I recreated one of the projects and saved to another external hard drive. Woke up this morning and that folder is completely missing along with the 2-3 files inside. Now, I'm scared it's a Mac issue not a hard drive failure.
I save all my files to an external hard drive which then gets backed up via CrashPlan to their online backup. Unfortunately CrashPlan is slow to upload files so the most recent ones are not backed up.
I'm running 10.8.5, haven't updated to Mav yet. Is that advisable?
Help help help.
Thank you!

Back up all data immediately as your boot drive may be failing.
This diagnostic procedure will query the log for messages that may indicate a system issue. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.

Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.

Saving metadata manually - saves to all files, not only touched

Since "Automatically write XMP" didn't work properly before version 1.3, I'm still not using it in 1.3. Still a little scared.
My idea is to once in a while select all pictures (or just right click the topmost folder in the folder view) and select "save metadata". But I did some tests now with various images, and this command actually wrote metadata to ALL selected files, even though no keywords, metadata or adjustsments had been made. The import was done with no preset too.
So how do I ensure that only changes I have made are written to the files and that old files remains untouched? And what imaginary metadata does it write?

Hi
Some files may have had metadata written by other applicatons (IPTC - not XMP), but the recent test I did yesterday was fresh files from my cellphone-camera. So what I did was first to select just a few images in the grid and select "save metadata". All files were updated (both the timestamp and the archive-attribute. And with the archive-attribute changes, everything will be backed up again if a normal incremental backup procedure is used). I also right-clicked a folder in the left pane and selected "save metadata" and the same happened.
So I did not do this operation on my whole library, still not trusting LR I prefer to test things in small scale first. Lucky for me.
I checked the files and what had happened is that XMP-data was written to the files. This is just like when I turned on "automatically write XMP" on LR 1.0 - it updated all my image files, even those that was not changed. So it seems I have got almost the same situation again.
So, no - it did not re-write files that had already been touched. This is the first time LR writes to the files, but I don't see why it should write to files that are not changed. I don't agree that LR needs to write to the files once. Why should it? What should it write?
Did this make sense?
Funny, I'm listening to an old Lightroom podcast right now and the team says that one of the design ideas was to be friendly to existing image catalogs. Saving data to unchanged files is not really friendly.

Did you format your hard disk on that Mac any differently?
