Saving existing files in their native formats
It's really annoying that Numbers insists on saving in its own proprietary format. Is there a way around this and is there a chance that the default behavior would ever be changed?
I've just had my first experience with Numbers since it was pre-installed on my new machine. I was opening a xlsx file a colleage had emailed me. I imagine that for many (business) users who don't create spreadsheets, this is a typical first interaction - opening an existing spreadsheet that somebody else has created. Business users are almost always using Excel or maybe you're opening a CSV because it came from a reporting system.
After making a small tweak to an existing CSV or XLSX file, Numbers prompts you to save in a new format - thus creating another file - or you can delete the new version you made. This isn't very user friendly.
Here's a common case. You might download an address template from a website in XLS or CSV and then fill it in and re-upload it. Workflow is very difficult in Numbers and especially so for a novice user. It's not intuitive to have to go to the export menu to save it in the same format it was already in.
For some background, I run engineering at an ecommerce startup and I've used Excel, OpenOffice and Google Docs for years and typically stick to the latter two these days since they're free. We install OpenOffice on all our Macs to crunch bigger spreadsheets (vs Google Docs) and of course like that it's free.
I realize that the native format has its advantages and Apple also has reasons for wanting to convert to their own format, but in some cases where fidelity isn't affected, saving changes to an existing file just makes a lot more sense.
I was primarily looking for supported way to solve this use case but it sounds like that isn't available out of the box. In that case, no need to spend any more time looking into this. SG, your workaround is pretty admirable and that's a good idea, but it probably doesn't make sense usabillity wise when you could use a text editor if you were advanced enough as you mentioned or just use another program.
Wayne, as you suggested, I submitted feedback from Numbers itself so hopefully that helps the Apple team understand this use case better.
For internal use, it sounds like using another program is the most straight-forward way for this case (for average users). However, since we have a website with tons of Mac users, it's realistic that the default xls or csv handler on their system is Numbers so there won't be a way around that. Of course we can't tell users on our site to download a script to make saving a file any easier (since it would be harder), so I think the best thing is to give users instructions with the steps I outlined even though there are lot of them. It sounds like there's no better way for general users.
Thanks for all your help guys!

Raw files from the new Nikon D810 will not open with either Photoshop CS5.1 or Lightroom 4. When will a real Adobe solution be available to work with Raw (NEF) files in their native format, using CS5.1 and LR4?
Clarification: this is a user forum; you are not addressing Adobe here.
The answer to your question as phrased is: never.
CS5 is history and it is not longer supported. There will not be any updates or bug fixes for CS5.
You need to convert the raw NEF files from your D810 to raw DNGs using the free, standalone Adobe DNG Converter 8.6 RC (beta), the first version ever to support that camera.. -
How to open file in their native application
How to open file in their native application form web browser?
if associated .txt file should open in editplus then from web browser if I try to open .txt file it should open in editplus rather then open in notepad(default), If on other computer if I associate .txt file should open in word, it should open in word. I am using Tomcat Web Server.that's nothing you could influence from a servlet or jsp.
all you could do is specifying the content type of your response.
Next you might hope that the client requesting your content uses a browser that relates the given content type to a special application (e.g. "text/plain" -> editplus or notepad or kedit or word or ...) -
File Adapter Wizard - Native Format Builder - no spaces in header?
My project uses a vendor supplied, delimited text file. The first row of the file is a header, followed by data rows. The problem is that the header elements contain spaces, Which are not acceptable by the Native Format Builder.
Has anyone experienced this before and know of a good work-around? Or, is this a known issue?You can make use of the attribute "headerLines" in the top level "schema" tag. It would look something like this nxsd:headerLines="1".
This will skip first header line and will start from line number 2.

Hope it helps. -
How to split a file by using Native Format Builder?
Hi all,
Please help me with this issue.
In this project we need to split a file to save in the db.
Following is the sample code and I would like to split this from 'BOH--------------' to 'BOT---------------' (as in BOLD)
But as you can see sometimes 'BOT' line comes up multiple times so I need to skip few 'BOT's until I meet new 'BOH' line.
I guess I have to use complex type in Native Format Builder, but I'm not sure how to..
Please help me with this situation.
Thanks in advance.

Edited by: 964067 on Oct 14, 2012 11:26 PMHi,
Firstly please ensure that the file that you are reading is bound to have a format of some sort.
I will relate this to one of the requirement we did it in previous projects.
We have a requirement to read a csv file coming in:
1) It will be having records for Header (ODH) and Detail (ODL)
2) The Header and Detail records will be repeated 'N' number of times in the input file.
The schema we used it something as below to poll the CSV file:
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:nxsd="http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/nxsd"
xmlns:tns="http://TargetNamespace.com/ReadCSV" targetNamespace="http://TargetNamespace.com/ReadCSV"
elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified" nxsd:parseBom="true"
nxsd:version="NXSD" nxsd:stream="chars" nxsd:encoding="US-ASCII">
<xsd:element name="Package">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:choice minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded" nxsd:choiceCondition="terminated" nxsd:terminatedBy=",">
<xsd:element name="Header" nxsd:conditionValue="BOH">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="RecordAction" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" nxsd:style="terminated"
nxsd:terminatedBy="," nxsd:quotedBy="""/>
<xsd:element name="VisitType" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" nxsd:style="terminated"
nxsd:terminatedBy="," nxsd:quotedBy="""/>
<xsd:element name="OrderAction" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" nxsd:style="terminated"
nxsd:terminatedBy="," nxsd:quotedBy="""/>
<xsd:element name="Route" type="xsd:int" minOccurs="0" nxsd:style="terminated"
nxsd:terminatedBy="${eol}" nxsd:quotedBy="""/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
<xsd:element name="Lines" nxsd:conditionValue="BOD">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="RecordAction" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" nxsd:style="terminated"
nxsd:terminatedBy="," nxsd:quotedBy="""/>
<xsd:element name="OrderCode" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" nxsd:style="terminated"
nxsd:terminatedBy="," nxsd:quotedBy="""/>
<xsd:element name="ShippingUnitNumber" type="xsd:int" minOccurs="0" nxsd:style="terminated"
nxsd:terminatedBy="," nxsd:quotedBy="""/>
<xsd:element name="ProdOptDesc" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" nxsd:style="terminated"
nxsd:terminatedBy="${eol}" nxsd:quotedBy="""/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:choice>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>
So the approach we followed is as below:
1) Design two DB tables. One to put the header records in Header table
2) Put the detail records in Trailer table.
3) Poll from these two tables to trigger next business requirements.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Deepak. -
How to open files in their native fromats in a browser
Hi,
i have jsp file which contains pure java script functionality, from this page i want to open local files. the same i can open with following code as html page but it is not opening when i place in the tomcat server,

if(id == 'launch')
document.getElementById("docframe").src = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\3041\\documents\\01\\pdf\\DOM.pdf";
if(id == 'prev')
document.getElementById("docframe").src = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\3041\\documents\\01\\doc\\HR-007_Leave.doc";

</td>
</tr>
</table>
please help me in getting out of this problemWhat is it you are trying to do???
The browser open files with their defaults programs, because they make use of the header values such as content-type. it seems that you are using DOM to archieve that, how do you expect that to work??
Something is not right.

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.

Saving MP3 files in a different format
I currently have an extensive MP3 library already tagged and named to avoid doubles. I wish to import this library into Itunes but had noticed with a test import of a few hundred it is renaming them.
Is there any way to change Itunes so that when it renames the mp3 file name it will be the format of <artist> - <song> instead of just <song>?
Also is there a way to change the folder it is saving to also? The format I would prefer is <Artist 1st Letter>\<Artist> or just <artist> instead of <Artist>\<Album>.
Thanks for the helpNo and no.
You can turn off "keep my music folder organized" and "copy files to iTunes library". Then it won't touch your songs names or locations or what have you. -
Preview loops in their native key & tempo - Can it be done?
Sometimes I just want to browse my loops to hear what I've got -- not for a particular song. In this case, listening to a loop transposed and sped-up/ slowed-down just gets in the way. And changing the key and tempo of the open project all the time is just a huge hassle.
I have tried various modifier keys (control, option, command, shift) while clicking the loop to preview it, but it still plays in the key and tempo of the project. Ack!
Is there a way to listen to a loop in its original key & tempo?
Dual 1.8 G5 Mac OS X (10.4.4) Garageband 3.0
Dual 1.8 G5 Mac OS X (10.4.4)I use the Finder to preview files in their native key and tempo. You could spend a few bucks for AudioFinder to preview your loops. If I had a few extra dollars I would buy that application just to preview and manipulate loops outside of Garageband.
I have gotten used to previewing with the finder, it alows me to quickly trash a loop I know I'm never gonna use. -
I have trimmed some R3D flies in Premier Pro and I want to export the trimmed versions in full res to my hard drive, i.e. I want to export the files so that they end up on my hard drive in the same native format. I don’t see an option for this in Premier Pro when I go to export. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!Premiere Pro
Aperture has the ability to work with files in their existing location. They are called "referenced masters." When you import images, you should select the "In their current location" in the "Store Files:" drop down box. Have a read of the documentation for full specifics. Unsure how you can resolve your duplication; might be some work but next time have a read of the manual first
Information for versions is stored in the Aperture database (library file). The masters can be inside the library file itself, or they can be somewhere else. -
File Adapter - Native Format Builder
Dear All,
In File Adapter - Native Format Builder exists option "Number of rows to skip". But this means how many rows from beginning of file to skip,
can somebody help to define how to skip n rows from the end of file.
Thanks in advance!There is no option available to skip rows from end. But if you know how many rows are there in the file and how many you want to skip, then you can use the option of "Number of data rows to process" and process only number of rows you want to actually process.

Hi There,
All 3 workstations in our studio are experiencing weird file behavior when re-saving eps files from Illustrator.
Basically Illustrator creates a new file in addition to the original and adds a "-01.eps" onto the file name. If you re-save your original, Illustrator brings up a dialogue box that states:
Some of the specified files already exist in the target location. The files marked below will be replaced:
filename.eps
filename-01.eps
We've been deleting the "-01.eps" files each time but it's becoming tedious. The behaviour occurs when re-saving an eps file to a server or the desktop.
All machines are new Quad-core MacPros running:
- Leopard 10.5.8
- Illustrator CS4 14.0.0
We've checked for Illustrator updates from within Illustrator but we seem to be running the latest version.
Is anyone else experiencing this behavior?
Any help or pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.
Cheers
BenThanks for the reply.
The error occurs when we save the document but if we choose save as, "Use Artboards" seems to be unchecked so not sure if this issue is related or not. Will re-save the document using save as then see if the issue persists.
Why do we still use eps?
Basically because we've found it to be much more compatible. Our entire logo library is in eps format (18 years worth) partly because it was previously the only format to use and partly because it allows account managers to send logos to clients, printers, TV stations etc and not involve the studio (saving out an eps version).
Although "Create PDF compatible file" is a good idea, we've encountered costly issues with colours and images - especially if the recipient is using old CS software, non-Adobe software or is using some kind of hardware RIP. We now just go with what we know works.
But I do find saving eps versions of everything to be a bit painful. In fact, I've always found Illustrator in general to be a bit painful when compared with Photoshop or AfterEffects. Illustrator seems like it's been developed by a different company some times!
Cheers, and thanks for the help. -
when saving a file in [.jpg] format, i am asked to choose a quality from 1 to 100. what changes in the file created based on the quality parameter chosen?. i would like to know what changes, so in the future i can set my camera to a setting that will give me the highest quality to begin with,allowing me to make crops and still preserve the quality.
thank you
dovidIt's the level of compression. Lower number, more aggressive compression, more visual artifacts.
Aside from that you should never use jpeg as a working format. The compression is destructive and cumulative, and the file deteriorates every time you resave it.
Use TIFF or PSD, and if you need jpeg save out a copy as a single final step. -
Hello everyone,
I'm currently having a problem saving a Pages document as another format, such as a Word document or PDF file. I've never had this problem before with Pages. Please help me! I need to have this completed a.s.a.p.
Thanks,
AmyTo save as a PDF, you do that from Print
To save as Wrod format, you export

Saving processed files in original raw (or DNG?) format
Hello. I'm new to Lightroom, so although I've spent a day or so ploughing through the tutorials, please accept my apologies if my question seems dumb.
However I can't see an answer to my problem so far.
It is this: after importing my raw files (CR2) into Lightroom and processing them etc to get them to a result I'm happy with, I'd now like to be able to keep the new, processed version of my images somewhere in Lightroom in the original raw format so that I can quickly access those processed images again in the future and then export in appropriate formats as I choose, which might be screen jpegs or prints or whatever – different from my first export.
In other words, I know I can 'save' (export) files to a folder as jpegs etc, but if I subsequently decide to export those same files in a different format (e.g prints), I don't want to have to go back to the original raw files and start the processing all over again to arrive at what I'd already been happy with, in order to re-export.
I suspect I'm missing something really basic here, but it's so basic I can't work out what it is!
I suppose another way of reframing the question might be: is there a way I can save and store my processed raw images in Lightroom so that I can access them easily, and not have to re-process them unless I want to?
I haven't yet got my head around DNG files. Is this part of the solution perhaps?
Lightroom is incredibly fantastic, but now that I've managed to get my images to where I want them, I don't want to re-visit the processing on them un-necessarily, which is what I seem to be doing at the moment...
I have Lightroom 5.4 on a Macbook Air running Mavericks OSX 10.9.2 if it makes any difference.
Thank you, I would be very grateful for your advice.While the advice to read Victoria bampton's Quick Start Guide is excellent, I'd like to provide a little shorter piece of philosphy that might help
Lightroom works differenlty than any other software you may have used in the past. You would be wise to eliminate from your brain your ideas about how to manage files and edits that might have been present in your mind from your use of other photo editing software. You would be wise to start using Lightroom with a clean slate in your mind about how things work. Your statements above show clearly that you are thinking that Lightroom works the same as other photo managing/editing software, and this will lead you/already has lead you in the wrong direction, and in harmful directions.
So wipe the slate clean. Prepare to learn how to manage files and manage edits from a clean slate.
Things that are different about Lightroom
Lightroom is completely non-destructive editing. This means that the pixels in your original photos are NEVER (that's NEVER, a very strong word, chosen intentionally to mean, well it means NEVER) changed by Lightroom. This implies that you do NOT need to make a copy of a photo before you start editing it. Making a copy of a photo before you start editing it is a complete waste of time and disk space. (Also see side comment below)
Edits are not stored by saving a copy of the edited photo on your hard disk, as Photoshop or Photoshop Elements would do. Edits are not, by default, stored in the photo file itself. Edits are stored in the Lightroom catalog, which is a database file. The edits are essentially stored as numbers (example: Exposure +0.5, contrast +20, Highlights –15) in the catalog. You cannot turn this method of saving edits in the catalog off. As a result, if you close Lightroom after you perform some edits, and then open Lightroom again at some later time, your edits will be in the catalog, and displayed for you automatically, without you taking any specific "save" action or without you taking any specific action to tell Lightroom to display the edits.
However, some people make the critical mistake of removing the photos from Lightroom after the edits are completed ... this also removes the edits from Lightroom and (in Lightroom's default mode of operation) the edits are now lost forever. Even if you use an option in Lightroom to store the edits with the file, this mode of operation requires you to do more work and you recieve less benefits from Lightroom, than simply leaving the photos in Lightroom. Removing photos from Lightroom after the edits are completed is highly unrecommended.
Photos are never stored in Lightroom. Photos are always stored on your hard disk. They are stored wherever you put them, or where you instruct Lightroom to put them on your hard disk during Import. Lightroom maintains a link in its database to the file's location on disk. As a result, if you move or rename or delete your photos (or the folders that contain them) outside of Lightroom, then Lightroom cannot find the photos and you can no longer work with them in Lightroom. There are ways to fix this, but the best solution IN MY OPINION, is to no longer manage/organize your photos via operating system/folders/file names and to no longer manage/organize your photos by moving them from here to there after importing them; rather you should manage/organize your photos using Lightroom tools such as keywords and other metadata and then you not only have more powerful tools for managing/organizing than you have in your operating system, but the issue regarding Lightroom not being able to find your photos goes away
Side comment: in item 1 I said you don't have to make a copy before you edit the photos. However you do need to make backups (identical copies) of your original photos and catalog file on a different hard disk. This is to protect against the future situation where your hard disk will fail, resulting in the loss of your photos, and to protect against accidental erasure of your original photos. It is not to protect against Lightroom changing the pixels of your original photos, which as I said, Lightroom does not do.

LR JPEG compression vs. Photoshop JPEG compression
I haven't found any documentation of the meaning of the 0 - 100% JPEG compression value in LR's (v1 or v2) Export File window. And the default value of 100% is overkill and results in huge files. At least I'm familiar with the Photoshop's 0-12 JPEG q
