Saving Stuff In A Folder...

Lets say I have three people using TC and they each have a folder on the drive that they drop things in... can those folders be locked so that other can access the contents? Thanks!

If you have both sites on the same domain files you should consider splitting them.

Then you can trouble shoot the one that is causing the problems...

Saving notes on a folder.

Still new to Imac,I wish to save some notes that I have typed on text edit (as I did not find a notepad or Word page like we do on PCs).I want to save it on a new folder that I managed to open in the Documents folder.I am not able to drag & drop the text file onto the New folder.How do I go about?

Hi, Ministrel -
First 'Save" the TextEdit file. Doing so will present a screen in which you can name the doument, and place it wherever you choose. For my convenience I usually save new documents (files) to the Desktop.
Then drag the file from where it was saved to into that folder.
If you have tried that, and are getting a 'you can't do that type of message when you try to drop it into the folder, please give us the exact text of the message.

Saving PDF to last folder

I have Adobe Reader X 10.0.0, PDF Version 1.4 (Acrobat 5.x). I have been saving PDF's for years, and each time I save, it goes to the last folder I saved to? The other day, I had approximately 15 PDF's that had been scanned to me, and after I had saved 5 of these documents normally, it then started going straight to a temporary folder, and has done ever since, which means I have to go through all the folders to get the one I desire? I have spoken to our I.T. department and they believe its a problem with PDF and not with our system, and I believe otherwise. I can use Recent Places, but when you have done the same thing for years, and the amount I do, change is not always good
Has anyone encountered the same problem, and can help?

Hi Kat,
This is a bit geeky, but the signature appearance that you see on the page is not the signature, but just a graphical representation of the actual signature. The actual signature is a blob of hex encoded data in the PDF file that you don't really see. That aside...
When you create a digital signature the first thing Acrobat/Reader will ask you to do is select a digital ID to sign with. Acrobat then reads the digital ID and amasses some information to use to create the signature appearance. It then fills in the form field (a signature field is just a special use form field) with the appearance, BUT the signature still hasn't been created. The next thing Acrobat does is asks you to Save the file to disk. This is more geekiness, but it much safer to compute the signature byte range on disk then it is in memory. The simple explanation is it's harder for the bad guys to manipulate the bytes on disk then it is for them to control the bytes in memory and because a digital signature provides document security we err on the safe side and require the file to be written to disk before the signature is created. The other safety item is, we want to sign the signature appearance so that someone can't come along later and modify the appearance without breaking the signature, so it (the appearance) has to be created before the signature proper is created.
So at this point you've seen the signature appearance and thought that the signature has been created, but it hasn't. When you try to save to the network folder something is preventing Acrobat from saving the file and what ends up happening is the file is rolled back to the pre-signature state and the signature appearance is removed. The file is in essence untouched.
All of that aside (which is probably more than you really wanted to know) the real question is why can't the file be saved to the network folder. This isn't really a digital signature issue, but rather a network permissions issue.

Authenication needed when moving or saving files to a folder

I've been online searching but can't find a resolution to disabling having to authenticate when moving or saving files to any folder.
I read something about using Terminal and tried the suggestion which was typing in
sudo chawn -R yourshortname . Then putting in my password when prompted. It either will not type my password or not accept it.
Can anyone help? Thanks

You can't disable or correct it with that command. See http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1216618 for more information.

I edited photos in photo shop that I took off of my camera and then whenI was done I saved them in a folder in my documents as a JPEG. Now when I try to open them there is an encrytion error me assage.

I edited photos in photo shop thay I took off my camera and when I was done I saved them in a folder in my documents as a jpeg. now when I try to open them there is an encryption error message

The folks here would need far more information from you before they provide help.
You know the drill: Exact OS...PS version...etc. The more you provide, the better.
What is the exact message that is displayed?
What have you tried so far?
Do the files display on your browser? In Bridge?
What are you doing when it happens?
Are the files still on your cameras card? If so and,you copy one to your desktop and save it without changes, does it reload properly?
Don't worry about providing too much information. Every little bit helps.

With Netscape all of the Webcam shots from live feeds were automatically saved in my cache folder and I could simply open my cache send the saved files into AcDsee and convert them into jpgs, It would save as many as I would allow space for. With firefox

I cant retrieve my images from webcams that are cached any more with mozilla. With netscape all of the live webcam images from live cams were automatically saved in my cache folder and all i had to do was open it send the files to acdsee and turn them into jpgs. It would save them untill the Cache ran out of room no matter how many files or sites I had running. Mozilla seems to save what it wants when it wants and often dose not save any that I can retrieve because I believe it is bulking them into Cache 123 or 4 and those i cant open to retrieve the files. Sometimes it saves 100 or so and sometimes 2 or 3 sometimes 10 or more but i don't seem to have any control over what it does or does not save to retrieve no matter how much space i allow for the cache to save.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I finally gave up trying to keep netscape due to all the ridiculess popups and continued reminders from you saying i had to switch over

You have or had an extension installed (Ant.com Toolbar) that has changed the user agent from Firefox/3.6.3 to Firefox/3.0.12.
You can see the Firefox version at the top and the user agent at bottom of the "Help > About" window (Mac: Firefox > About Mozilla Firefox).
You can check the '''general.useragent''' prefs on the '''about:config''' page.
You can open the ''about:config'' page via the location bar, just like you open a website.
Filter: '''general.useragent'''
If ''general.useragent'' prefs are bold (user set) then you can right-click that pref and choose ''Reset''.

My outgoing messages are not being saved in my sent folder

Half of my message that I try to send are not being saved in my sent folder. This is a huge problem causing lost documentation and copies of information and conversations I have had. The error message I get says that thunderbird was unable to save to my sent folder and asks if I would like to try again. If I say yes I get the same message over and over again until I give up and let the message be lost to cyberspace. What can I do to fix this issue and stop loosing valuable information for work?
I am using an HP laptop running windows 8.

What protocol is your email account using (POP or IMAP)?
If POP, you need to make sure your local disk space is enough to save the sent messages. Check where the copies are located by looking at the account settings under '''Copies & Folders'''. When using POP, I believe a copy needs to be saved on both sides: local and server.
If IMAP, the email server is where such copies are saved. You can also double-check such settings as mentioned above.
Finally, if your emails are too big, this may be a restriction of your email provider, perhaps get in touch with their support and inquire about this to rule it out as the cause of the problem. Could you share more details about the kind of emails that fail to have a local copy saved or is it for each and every email?

Windows support software could not be saved to the selected folder?

Hi all
I am trying to install windows 7 using bootcamp on my I5 Mac mini but every time bootcamp moves on to downloading the windows support files i get the error "Windows support software could not be saved to the selcted folder" my usb drive is an 8Gb model and has been formatted by the mac mini using FAT.
I'm really pulling my hair out with this so any help would be much appreciated!

Finally resolved the issue, i just get persisting with the windows support software download and after 20 attempts it worked!

How do I set Adobe Reader XI so that a saved pdf will be saved in the last folder saved?

When I save a group of PDF files, I want them all saved in the same folder. How do I configure so that each fille will be saved in the last folder that was used to save, rather than having to browse for the save folder each time?

I am replying to my own question. I learned that if you right click when trying to open a PDF, you are asked which app you wish to use to open the file. If you click on Get Info, instead of choosing an app, you get this great information box which gives you the option to set Adobe Reader as your default app for PDF files. It even allows you to change all the pdf files you already have to Adobe Files. Yay.

Finding stuff in "private" folder?

Hi!
Is there some way to put a folder into "privacy" (Spotlight prefPane), so that usual Spotlight-searches won't search it, but have a way of finding stuff in that folder nevertheless (say, by using Finder's searchbar)?
I have several thousands of articles from my favorite computer mag in html-format on my HD and I don't want Spotlight to search through them all the time because that gets awfully slow.
On the other hand, I'd like to find some article in that folder from time to time.
(re-indexing and de-indexing that folder each time is NOT considered an option)

Leonard,
I agree with John. Complaints about Spotlight are widespread and persistent, and unless this is impressed firmly on Apple, they will probably do nothing since, as John says, they seem to think the concept is great.
The concept of indexing everything (or rather, NOT everything) and then searching in that index (and not finding) seems to be inherently stupid.
Since it is often repeated that no Apple employees with decision-making power ever visit these forums, the only way to get Apple's attention is to write them a firm email directly.
I did this a long time ago and, unfortunately cannot remember to what address I sent the email. Maybe someone else can tell you.

I would like to download / backup my entire iPhoto library, but want to do so in a manner where each event is saved as a distinct folder. Can someone please advise if / how this is possible?

I would like to download / backup my entire iPhoto library, but want to do so in a manner where each event is saved as a distinct folder. Can someone please advise if / how this is possible?

See Terence Devlin's User Tip on exporting from iPhoto:
Exporting From iPhoto https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
To write events to separate folders, use "File > Export" and select the subfolder format "Event Name". But that will only backup the photos and not your iPhoto library and all the work you invested in organising it. For backing up, see: iPhoto and File Management

Multiplexing Error when Saving to VIDEO-TS folder.

I used idvd-08 for the first time last night and I had a problem.
I saved my project to a VIDEO_TS folder. Everything seemed to work fine but at the end I got an error message saying that a Multiplexing error had happened during the burn.
When I tried to open the file using my DVD app it tells me that the media type is not supported.
The input file was created in FCE 3.5HD.
This is the first time that I have used idvd-08. Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Steve.

How much free space on your start-up HD?
This is from iDVD '08 Help:
+Saving as VIDEO_TS folder: Saving a project as a VIDEO_TS folder allows you to play it back, on your computer, using software such as VLC media player. Saving as a VIDEO_TS folder is similar to saving as a disc image: the output quality is the same, and both methods take about the same amount of time to complete. *You can’t burn a disc from a VIDEO_TS folder.*+
Suggest you create a disc image and then burn the DVD. File/Save as Disc Image...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/6.0/en/18.html
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/image_to_diskstone.html
This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Toast to burn the DVD. Disk Utility to burn the .img file. Usually, you can select a burning speed in Disk Utility.
There are variations to this process based on which OS X you are using...
Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (maybe the .img) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. A new window should drop down and your SuperDrive tray will open after clicking the Burn icon. Insert a recordable DVD. (Verbatim DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Select a burn speed. If you hold your mouse cursor over the pop-up it says: "Select a slower speed to work around burn failures," so select 4x or slower for best results. Then click the Burn button.
-->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and did change in Tiger.
Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD Media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

I can't find a folder I created in photoshop while saving I pressed new folder. can anyone help? I have used the finder option, and it's not pulling it up!

I can't find a folder I made in photoshop while saving, i pressed new folder button, named it and saved several photos to it. It was easy in the begining while it was a recent folder. I could always find it as a recent folder. Now that it's not, I don't know where it is. And finder won't pull it up. Can anyone suggest a magic fix?

In the Finder (with a window open shown), type all or part of the folderName or the new fileName(s) as illustrated in EITHER field

Can i move my apps from itouch to iphone 4S and keep the saved stuff ive done so far

can i move my apps from itouch to iphone 4S and keep the saved stuff ive done so far

If the developers of the apps have followed Apple's guidelines, the data should be in the backup made in iTunes, so you should be able to just restore the iPhone 4S from the most recent backup of the iPod touch, re-sync your apps, and you should be good to go. If any of the data is critical, though, you may want to confirm with the developer of the app, just in case they have some special procedure.
Regards.

Saving document to sub-folder

I'm a Mac newbie, but 100 hours a week on Windows. This stuff ain't easy. Mac for Dummies (Baig) p.115 shows "New Folder" button, but I can't find it in my new Leopard system after searching for an hour. What to do?

Welcome to Apple Discussions ctab
By default, save dialog boxes in OS X have very limited information.
By clicking the blue button with the down-facing triangle, the box will expand, giving you a Finder-like column view.
It's not unusual for me to click save & not realize the selected location isn't where I thought it was. To find it, I cheat. I choose Save As… but, instead of saving, I look at the save dialog to see where Pages (or whatever application) plans to save to.
