Simple Crop tool question... how do I save the crop section?

Hi,
I have a very simple crop tool question. I'm a photoshop girl usually... so Illustrator is new to me. When I select the crop section I want... how do I save it?... if I select another tool in the tool panel, the crop section disappears and I can't get it back when I re-select Crop tool. If I select Save as... it saves the whole document...and not just my crop section.
Like I said, simple question...but I just don't know the secret to the Illustrator crop tool.
Thanks!
Yzza

World's easiest Acrobat 9 Pro question: how do I save the file & bookmark order of source?

I am creating a PDF from a bunch of HTML files.
Each time I do so I have to order the files in the Create PDF dialog.
When I make minor changes to the file order I have to recreate the file list again.
I would like a way to save the order of the input source files separate from the PDF itself, sort of like Premiere's nondestructive editing feature that lets you order film clips, then render the film from the original clips.
Similarly I would like to "render" a PDF file from a list of source files & bookmarks, and edit that list from time to time.
How can I save a description of the document with the source files and preferably the bookmarks in order, so I can just edit the file list each time I create the PDF?

There is a suggestion on how to create a list of files at the following URL:
http://www.acrobatusers.com/forums/aucbb/viewtopic.php?id=15372
Once you have your master list of files in PDF you can use the replace pages command to save all your bookmarks.
Also, you'll find quite a few sample batch sequences dealing with bookmarks at:

How do I make the crop tool work?

Okay, The image is in adjustment view. It has a white border around it. I checked the box that says crop on it. I hover the cursor over the corners. The cursor does not change to crop tool. When I press on the crop icon it beeps a reject sound. Not sure how to phrase that. New to Aperture. Help

There is no "adjustment view" in Aperture.
What happens if you double-click the image with the selection box around it? That should take you from the Browser to the Viewer. Then, in the Crop Brick, click the little "cropping corners" icon, and you should be able to crop.
"c" is the shortcut for bringing up the crop tool when you are in the Viewer. Notice that the tools in the toolstrip (on the bottom border of the viewing area) change depending on whether you are using the Browser or the Viewer.
Strongly suggest reading the first seven chapters of the User Manual. Aperture is a rich and complex continent, mostly submerged. The first seven chapters provide a guide to the flora and fauna, as well as a map.

After I have cropped a photo how do I save it. Something is wrong, my computer will not let me close photoshop

I cropped a photo and saved it as a TIFF. I can not close down photo shop or burn the photo to a disk. How do I save the photo once I crop it?

Use the menu option File>Save As. When you close photoshop, it should have asked you if you want to save the file. If photoshop does not ask you and refuses to close, odds are something else is wrong.
First try resetting the preferences. (ctrl-alt-shift for windows and cmd-opt-shift for mac as you start photoshop) If done right it will ask you if you want to reset the preferences.
Next thing to do is uninstalling then reinstalling photoshop.
If that still does not help, then it may be time to contact Adobe.

When I zoom in on photo using iPhoto, how can I save the zoomed in photo please? This always looks better than cropping., When I zoom in on photo using iPhoto, how can I save the zoomed in photo please? This always looks better than cropping.

When I zoom in on photo using iPhoto, how can I save the zoomed in photo please? I would like a screen shot of my zoomed in photo - is this possible?. Cropping doesn't give the same effect as zooming in and magnifying the photo. Any help would be appreciated thank you. I have an iMac

To take a screenshot of the zoomed photo, press either the key combination
⇧⌘3 for a screenshot of the full screen, or
⇧⌘4 to bring up a selection rectangle: select the section of the screen, that you want to save.
The screenshots will be sent to your desktop; drag them from there to the iPhoto icon in the Dock to import them.

Can't seem to crop and then save the crop -and- Undo levels

Hi there. I've used Corel Photo-Paint for many years, but now jumping to PSCC. It's much better in many ways, but I'm still trying to find my way around it. One simple thing that I can't seem to figure out is how to crop an image and keep it cropped. What I mean is, I have an open image, then with the Crop tool I crop it to a smaller size. But then when I try to select the (smaller) image to drag onto another open image, it selects the whole original image. I have the box for "delete cropped pixels" checked. The same thing happens if I save the cropped image and then open it again... the full original size of the image is still there, though it only shows the cropped section. What do I need to do differently? It would seem to me that what I'm getting is the effect if I unchecked "delete cropped pixels," but I definitely have that checked.
Also, is there a way to increase the number of Undo levels? I'm only getting one.
Thanks!

I found another thread where someone asked the same question and was answered that if any of the objects in the crop were "smart objects," then the Crop would not work destructively. But in my image, best I can tell, the two layers are NOT smart objects (right-clicking on them gives me the option to make them smart objects). So apparently that is not the answer in this case. Anybody know what's going on? It's probably something simple, but I just can't seem to figure it out.

Does anyone know why the delete and hide options are still missing in the crop tool option bar, despite having changed the background layer to a regular layer? Thanks!

"flying blind."
"You totally lost me there, and I have no clue as to what your last question means."
"I think I now know what you mean."
Evidently language is of difficulty for you.
Perhaps the Oxford dictionary can provide you with your much needed “sensible, meaningful” content.
According to the Oxford dictionary, a dialogue is to "Take part in a conversation or discussion to resolve a problem." It also states that a dialogue is "A discussion between two or more people or groups, especially one directed toward exploration of a particular subject or resolution of a problem.”
That IS the inherent nature of posts. A conversation is reciprocation. Questions, followed by more questions.
It is not difficult to understand.
"how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers" is best actualized by simply asking.
Is it a Mac; is it not, etc.
That IS sufficient. That IS "quicker and better answers[ing]." That IS what a dialogue IS. And that IS actually what is "sensible," "meaningful," and "detailed."
The Oxford dictionary can best delineate and elucidate your lack of comprehension in what ACTUALLY “meaning” is.
As well as what is "sensible" AND "detailed."
By the way, am I being repetitive.
Still confused. Let the experts that do not require much explanation respond with "quicker and better answers" for both "sensible, complete" responses." They are not "lost," "blind," or provide "incomplete" drivel.

Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store
If you want to back up the Photos only:
Export them using the File -> Export command.

My crop tool in CS5 does not give the option to crop by pixel size

How do I get the crop tool to give me the option of cropping by specific pixel size. Nothing appears in the dropdown menu except standard crop sizes in inches.

Have you tried entering the numbers with the suffix "px" in the entry fields?

Newtab question: How do I ''input'' the nine (yes 3X3) boxes to be my specific permanent sites exactly the same each time I hit the newtab+?

Newtab question: How do I ''input'' the nine (yes 3X3) boxes to be my specific permanent sites exactly the same each time I hit the newtab+? I know that I can hit the 'save' button but I want it to be MY selection before the save. Evert time I hit the newtab it seems to use my history to keep moving them up the line.
I have used google.com/ig as my home for years. In November the sites that are my personal choices will be gone as Google has decided to eliminate "IG"!
For example the NYTimes (with about 5-6 daily lead articles) appear in my upper left of the personalized home site. I would at least like to see that summary. At least with Newtab I can save it.
Is there a program step in FF that I can achieve my results and put nine sites into it and click them to be permanent as well as being able to edit them in the future?

You can change the order of the boxes on the about:newtab page and drag an item to a different slot to pin it to that position or you can remove a website by clicking the close X to block that URL.
You can drag a bookmark or history item and drop them in a slot on the about:newtab page to pin them and have your own favorites sites showing.
Changes made manually on the about:newtab page are stored in the browser.newtabpage.pinned (default = [null]) and browser.newtabpage.blocked prefs that you can check/modify on the about:config page.

HT1689 How do I save the arrangement of my app icons to my iPhone using iTunes?

How do I save the arrangement of my app icons to my iPhone using iTunes?

It seems really simple, I found the relevant place in the user manual it said this: "Customize the Home screen using iTunes: Connect iPhone to your computer. In iTunes on your computer, select iPhone, then click the Apps button to see the image of the iPhone Home screen".
I did that several times; if I unplug the phone and plug it back in the "apps" the in iTunes reverts to the same annoying arrangement on my home pages, if I do not unplug the phone iTunes stays the same. I have restarted both my phone and comupter.
This started because I synced my phone last night and this morning Facebook will not load although it tells me that I have messges. It seemed like a good time to get the dang thing in order. So I deleted the old Fb app and tried to add a new one via iTunes and it shows it as "will install" but when I sync nothing happens.
