Skype doesn't save files where it suppose to!

Same here - my friend sent me pictures, they came with strange long numbers names and all are downloaded to C/user name/AppData/Roaming/Skype/skype user name/media_messaging/media_cache Thou the auto.download are disabled and another folder are set for the downloads. Same as yours the only way to get files in correct place without fishing 'em out of the media_cache folder are by pressing 'save as' and I had to do it to each file separately. The second trouble is that after I removed files from the media_cache folder and opened conversation again - the files were saved to media_cache folder again by itself. _______________________________ Again - 1. Autosave disabled. 2. Correct folder for saving/downloading files set (for ex. - c/downloads) 3. Received files (seems like smaller copies of pictures) are saved to media_cache folder before I choose any picture/file to download. - by itself. 4. Pressing any picture/file causes it to be saved to the same media_cache folder instead of the folder that are set as default for downloads (for ex. - c/downloads) 5. Only way to save files to the correct location is by pressing save as and choosing download folder individually for each received file. 6. Files (pictures) name changed to the strange very long number name instead of the original name.

Older Skype versions are not sending image files the "Cloud-way", so you would have received them the old "P2P-way" with option to save to a specified folder.
The difference between the Cloud and the P2P mode is that with the new Cloud-mode the image files are sent to a dedicated server and the receiver downloads these files from the server. This means also that the sender and the receiver don't need to be Online on Skype at the same time for the file transfer to work.
In the case of the old P2P mode, the files are transferred directly from the sender to the receiver and both must be Online at the same time for the transfer to work.

PSE 2.0 doesn't save files on a PC with windows Vista with 2Tb HD while possible on a 500 Gb HD

on the same PC I use since 4 years I changed the Hard Dusk, PSE 2.0 can read the files from this 2 Tb HD but it doesn't save any file on it while everythibg was OK using the previous HD of 500 Gb : any suggested setting to solve this problem ?

Unfortunately, this is a problem with old version of PS and PSE. They can't see drives that large.

Sony File Commander really doesn't save files on sd card - they vanished after restart

Like in the subject. I've Sony Xperia Z3 dual sim version - 16GB + 64GB Kingston SD card. I was recording very important meeting with my phone. But after a few hours the internal space was full and I moved all of the recordings to my sd card using Sony File Commander. The files where there. But I have to restart my phone and I was so surprised that after doing that all of my files on sd card that I've moved using SFC where gone. I've lost very important stuff.
I'm using Sony Audio Recorder and this program can save recordings only to internal storage. There is no option in settings to change that. Please help! Sony, help!
Going back to factory settings, uninstalling software updates and cleaning data of SFC didn't solve the problem. All versions of SFC have this problem.

I think this is something related to the microSD cards themselves. Have you tried others?
I'm using two Kingston 64 GB SD cards. The same issue is on my Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact. When I remove my SD card and plug it directly through my SD/USB adapter to my computer I can easily cut and paste any files on it and there is no problem with them at all.

V5 doesn't save files

When trying to download a 198 MB update to Nero, http://www.nero.com/eng/downloads-nero9-update.php, I get a 'Save File' dialogue box, but when I click on 'Save,' nothing happens! I had this same problem in v3.6; the reason I updated to v5, also to make ZoneAlarm ForceField work.

Acrobat 11 pro (Creative Cloud master collection licence) doesn't save files changes only from the network and a user profile. We can't recreate the user profile due other programs setting

Steps to reproduce bug:
1. edit .pdf file from MS network (i.e a share).
1.1 Browsing the network.
1.2 Once that the file is found.
1.3 Select the file, right click and select edit with Adobe Acrobat".
2. save changes.
Results:
I get message box "document could not save because write access was not granted. only read"
Expected results: I have to save the file because the user has all rights file’s security.
Can you help me ?
Thanks in advance

First, you should ask in Acrobat

MBP doesn't save files, then crashes - Illustrator

Hi...I'm in need of some direction on what to do here. My Illustrator CS2 program on my first generation MBP decided to crash and not register any of the saves I made before the crash. I had been hitting "Save" in Illustrator for over 2 hours, and when the program "unexpectedly quit" I went to reopen Illustrator and the file only to find a very old version, not a version saved 2 minutes ago.
It's worse this morning, Illustrator CS2 is crashing every couple of minutes, and the "saved" file is a few "saves" back, if that makes sense. I just can't get Illustrator to save my file to disk, or to memory stick, or the anything else. It's like my saves don't register, and almost anything I do in Illustrator crashes the program.
Is this a hard-drive problem? A RAM problem? I have sneaking suspicions something is up with my logic board..anyways, it's the only other problem with the macbook pro (see http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/sho...101#post487101)
any help, advice, or direction would be appreciated.

Illustrator CS3 puts files in the following places…
~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS3
~/Library/Preferences/Adobe Save For Web AI 12.0 Prefs
~/Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings
What you can do is you move all/some of these files to you desktop, reset your AI settings and see if your problem goes. By moving them to you desktop you leave yourself the opportunity to put them back if it doesn't fix things by having AI make new ones.

Photoshop doesn't save file extension

I'm using PS cs5.1 64 bit and Bridge cs5 in Win7 Pro 64 bit.
When I "Save As", photoshop won't write the file extension unless I explicitly type it (i.e. i have to type "filename.psd" as opposed to just "filename") in the file name text box.
If I Save As the file without specifying the extension, bridge simply displays a blank page icon for the file, and if I double click it, I get the "don't know what application to use" dialog. If I select photoshop as the program to use, ps will open the file correctly.
However, even after I change the filename in bridge by adding the extension, bridge displays the PS icon, but won't preview the file (doesn't show a thumbnail).
If I want bridge to show a thumbnail, I have to re-open the file in PS, then Save As, remembering to explicitly specify the extension. THEN, Bridge will show a thumbnail.
How can I correct this? I've gone through the preferences dialog and have "save lowercase extension" checked, but this appears to be a preference for case of saved extension, not a specification that an extension should always be saved.
btw: I tried the regedit fix specified on other help forums, but this didn't help.
Thanks.

I think I figured it out.
I was saving filenames which contain "." in the name (e.g. "BO.HG.M.psd").
When I saved the file with the name "BO_HG_M", photoshop appended the .psd extension for me, and bridge is happy.
Because of the application of the images, it's important that we use the "." format for the names, so I'll just live with it and try to remember to type the ".psd" on the end.

Rename and save files where you want them?

I use Yahoo e-mail. When I use Explorer as the browser and I want to save an attachment, a dialogue box opens that allows me to rename the attachment and choose where to save it. When I use Safari as a browser, the attachment simply saves to the folder specified in Safari preferences. This is inconvenient as most often I need to rename attachments and save them to different places-- I don't want all of them in the same place, and I don't want to have to change my preferences for each e-mail. Does anyone know how to work around this?
By the way, I am currently using the public beta version of Safari-- this problem happened with previous versions as well. Also, I can control+click on attachment links and I get the dialogue box that would allow to rename and save to a different location BUT it only allows attachments to be saved as html-- this doesn't really help me as most attachments are doc or pdf.
Thanks.

Hi
Welcome to Apple Discussions
The Yahoo attachment names are not editable - this is true for Safari and Firefox.
Right clicking does not let you save the attachment to another location. What you are seeing is a Save Panel for the web page itself.

PS cs3 doesn't save files as JPG or others except PSD or PDF!!!

Please, help! My PS cs3 provides saving files only as PDF or PSD files!!! How can I save them as JPG????

I think you may have been mis-remembering Jennifer, unless you save for web, in which case it gets converted to 8-bit.
As Freeagent said, check the colour mode settings.

Windows 7 - Can't Save File Anymore?

I started using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit on my new HP notebook computer. Everything works great except that Adobe Reader no longer has the "save file" or "save target as" options active. I used to save my Chase online credit card statements from the Chase website, but I no longer can do so. I wasn't sure what had happened, but it does appear to be Windows 7 because my wife's notebook had been 64-bit Windows Vista with no problems saving Adobe files. However, I recently upgraded her to Windows 7 and now Adobe doesn't save files anymore. How do I get this capability back? I need to be able to save Adobe files on my computer. Help!!!

I am running Vista with IE 8. tried the various combinations you have
suggested.
for me the only thing that worked on some sites but not all is to hold
down the control button while clicking to open the PDF file. That brings up
the menu bar. while the "save" function under "file" is there it doesn't do
anything. however, under pages (lower right section of menu bar) there is an
option to send the file via email. I did that, sent the file to myself
and could download it from the email attachment. cumbersome but worked.
Unfortunately that doesn't work for all website I have to download PDF
files from. still experimentiong.
I tried the hold down "alt key" and click on "title bar" but nothing
happened. perhaps I don't know what a titled bar is, I clicked all over the bars
at the top of the page, nothing

While I'm not sure what's going on with the particular sites, one thing
worth trying is to click on the title bar of the IE window and press the Alt
key. This should show up the menu for IE. From there you could select Save.

Save file just created in QuickTime, How???

I create new file (AAC, audio) in QuickTime by paste some tracks into one QT-document. Then I need to save this new soundtrack. I do following:
tell application "QuickTime Player"
tell application "Finder"
set the temp_folder to (make new folder at desktop with properties {name:"_JoinToAudiobookTempfolder_"}) as alias
end tell
set the new_file to ((temp_folder as text) & "temp_file")
(* Some Code *)
save movie 1 given «class dfil»:file new_file, «class savk»:self contained
end tell
But QT doesn't save file on folder "_JoinToAudiobookTempfolder_" on Desktop! It shows windows "Save File As" and wait that I specify location and file name! Why?

I understand. So, I decided to change the order of
processing :-)) At first I'll join mp3's in QT, and
than convert created track into AAC using iTunes.
You can do that, but if you can do everything with QT, then why bother with iTunes?
Another question - i don't want quicktime to show
"Welcome Movie". So, i need to disable this feature
or temporary turn it off. I tried use this:
tell application "QuickTime Player"
set show welcome movie automatically to false
end tell
But this not works. So, ... how?
show welcome movie automatically is a read-only property, so you can not set it.
You can disable it in QT's Preferences --> Show Content Guide automatically
PS. That too bad that applescript application's
library doesnot contain live examples.....
No you don't want that. Things will get bloated.

I deleted my download folder and now I can't download anything. I can't select the folder to "save file to" and when I select "ask me where to save files" I still can't download. it says your file will start downloading, but then it doesn't. Help!!

I deleted the folder that saves everything that is downloaded from Firefox. After that I can't download anymore. I've tried clearing my download history, reset the download folder, reset the download action by renaming the mimetype.rdfs file and it's still not working. I've tried to choose a different download folder but it doesn't let me select any folder at all. If I select "ask me where to save files" and then try and download something, the download doesn't start after I select save to. The only time it does actually download is when I select "open with...windows mediaplayer" when downloading then the download will start. Please help. Thank you.

I need to know how to stop this from happeing and get it back to the way it has been working he last 6 months since i purchased this program.

Hi pissedadobeuser,
Does this issue occur with any particular web page?
Are you able to print the webpage to 'Adobe PDF' to convert it to pdf.
Which Browser version, OS version and Acrobat version are you using?

"Save as" dialog box doesn't come up, even though I have "Always ask me where to save files" selected (email attachments)

Recently, the "save as" dialog box quit appearing when I attempt to download email attachments. I have the "always ask me where to save files" box checked in the tools/options/general/downloads area. The box still appears when I use Chrome, but not when I use Firefox.

Hello,
Can you please follow these steps and provide the value for the configuration 'browser.download.useDownloadDir'
# In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
# Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''', to continue to the about:config page.
Can you please provide the values for the following keys
#browser.download.useDownloadDir
#browser.download.lastDir
Thank you

"Always ask me where to save files" does not work.

Summary: The "Always ask me where to save files" feature does not work. No dialog box comes up, apparently because the browser is stuck on a bad old read-only lastDir location, in a prefs.js file that I can't edit.
Details:
I am using Firefox 30.0 on Mac OS 10.6.8. My Mac has a both a read/write Mac partition that I use most of the time, and a bootcamp Windows partition drive ("C"), which I can read but not write to.
At some point I accidentally tried to download a file from a site, using Firefox, to the read-only Windows C drive. Ever since that time, I have not been able to download any files from Firefox, except to the firefox/downloads folder. This is inconvenient. If, in preferences, I try to set downloads to ""Always ask me where to save files", the dialog box does not come up when I actually try to save files. This problem does not apply to saving photos by right-clicking them.
If I open, in text-edit, mozilla/firefox/profiles/t4vockvue.default/prefs.js, which was saved yesterday, I can see a problematic line. It reads:
user_pref("browser.download.lastDir", "C:\\Documents and Settings\\[etcetc]");
C:\\Documents and Settings\\[etcetc] being the read-only windows directory.
This prefs.js is apparently not an editable file.
I tried to fix this by opening a browser tab in Firefox and opening about:config. The editable browser.download.lastDir does NOT show the same "lastDir"....it shows some directory that I successfully downloaded photos to, by right-clicking on a photo.
How can I fix this problem?
Thanks.

To confirm which profile folder is active when you are running Firefox, it is easiest to open it from inside Firefox as follows:
Sometimes the file that stores the customizations becomes corrupted and fails to update properly at the end of your session. You can rename the file and customize from scratch.
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
In the first table on the page, click the "Show in Finder" button (Windows: "Show Folder" button).
Hopefully you are using a separate profile folder on each OS.
