Sorting the "Save As" window

I would like to have Folders listed first in the "Save As" window.
When I am in an application and choose "Save As" the window opens up and all the items listed are sorted alphabetically. I would like to have all Folders, sorted alphabetically, appear at the top and then files.
Is this possible.

Default Folder X makes things like this easy.
It will display all you last used folders off to the right of the Save window, and there is also a favorites section.
It won't reorder the folders first in the lists, though. Only way to do that would be to give all your folders an asterisk * as the first character.

  • The "save as" window keeps popping up randomingly while browsing, WHY?

    Literally every few minutes the pop-up asking to "save as" and it just keeps popping up to save the web page. There is nothing wrong with my ctrl and S button on my key board and I cannot figure out why the save as window keeps popping up. I've done a virus scan and there is no negative results. What's the next logic troubleshooting step?

    Does it affect some sites more than others?
    If you use the Foxit PDF viewer and have PDFs configured to save to disk, maybe it's related to this problem: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/927458 Foxit Reader spews a lot "not a PDF" on some pages].
    One standard diagnostic step is to try Firefox's Safe Mode to see whether the misbehavior is caused by a custom setting or add-on.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, restart Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode] using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the Safe Mode dialog, do not check any boxes, just click "Continue in Safe Mode."
    If the annoying messages go away, this points to an add-on or custom setting as the problem. Now the challenge is to track it down!

  • How do I paste a copied filename into the save as window?

    I am used to copying filenames into the save as window ... it is more accurate and mroe efficient than typing them.  When I upgraded to CS1 and CS3, I can not do this, either on Snow Leopard or on Win7.  How do I regain the ability to do this?

    Copy and paste works just fine in the save dialog.
    And the save dialog is provided by the OS, so if you have any third party utilities that modify the behavior of the save dialog - those could cause problems.
    Also, CS1 and CS3 are both quite a few years out of date.
    Are you sure you have the right version numbers?

  • When I save a download, the SAVE TO window is no longer alphabetical (ever since last update). Now the window shows files/folders in Last-Used order. How can I change that preference??

    When prompted if I want to open or save a download, I choose SAVE and the usual window opens where I can choose a folder to save the download. After the last Firefox update, that SAVE window now displays all folders NOT in alphabetical order, but in Least Used to Most Recently Used order. Why??

  • How do I prevent the "Save as" window that started popping up yesterday and just print articles without saving?

    In years of printing articles I could always print without "saving as" first. Is there some setting I need to change or an add-on? I have firefox 3.6.13, Windows XP, HP PSC 2355

    {Ctrl + P} or File > Print
    Is your printer selected at the top in Printer - Name??

  • I'm using Firefox version 3.6 on my '02 Mac G4. When I installed it, it worked fine, But then all of a sudden the "save" and "save as" windows stopped coming up at all when I selected "save" anywhere in Firefox. What happened and how do I fix it?

    I downloaded and installed Firefox on my '02 Mac G4. It worked great. Now I have version 3.6. But my weird problem is one day when I ran it, the "save" and "save as" windows stopped popping up at all. I'd left click a picture and select "save as" and nothing would happen. I'd go to the menu and select "save" and still no window would pop up. It would just act as if nothing had been clicked. No loading icon or anything and no "save as" window. I've never been able to get it to work. The volunteer in the live support chat typed "That IS weird.." I tried his suggestion but it did nothing. I may have deleted the plist preferences file in the preferences library folder to get it started again after a freeze up threw it out of whack but I've never had this happen before.And i've tried doing that again to see if that would restore it. But the plist always regenerates itself and the "save as " window still never appears when I run Firefox. The "save" window works just fine in every other program on my Mac, but not in Firefox. Weird..

  • Saving a setting in the Save As Dialogue Window

    I feel like I'm overlooking something here. I use Preference Manager to keep the same user settings on all my computers at my school. In the Save As window I would like the expanded view on where to save using the column view. Is this a Preference Manager situation or something in the OS?
    We use Carbon Copy Clone to install on our computers. I'm going to be restoring the computers with CCC but I'd like to get the Save As window correct before I start. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Thank You for your time.

    Thank you for your input. That's the setting I want to save. Right now I have to manual do that. I'd like it to be open as the default. Most of my students are so new to the Mac OS let alone FCP. I need to simplify as much as possible. It used to do this but now I can't get it to save that as the default.
    I've created a new Preference Manager and that's why I think it may be the culprit. I have gone into FCP and opened the expanded view. Then I save those preferences. I take the Pref. Man. file to another computer. Load the preferences and I still have to choose it manually.
    It's obviously not the end of the world if I can't get it. The thing that bugs me is that it used to work. I might just have to get the old Pref. Man. file and make the current updates to the older one. This is normally how we make a new file but then we don't keep the old file around.
    Any other suggestions?

  • Typing the characters "oun" launches "Save As" window

    Product: HP ProBook 4530s
    O/S: Windows 7, 2009, SP1, 32 bit
    Error message - nope, no error message, just frustrating!
    Any changes - nope, still stock
    Okay, here's what happens... typing the characters "oun" in any word in any program is kicking me out of what I was doing to some other command window, as if the combination of the letters O U N is acting like some kind of shortcut command.
    In MS Word, Excel, or Powerpoint, if I type "oun" in any word, the "Save As" window jumps up in front of me.
    In MS Outlook, same thing.  If I type any word with "oun" in it, like "around" "found" etc... it immediately jumps me out of the document, spreadsheet, presentation, or email, and brings up the "Save As" window.
    Even in IE, it happens.  Just in trying to type this post, it has already happened every time I have typed these three characters in succession.  This odd window pops up at the bottom third of the IE screen with the main menu options "File Find Disable View Images Cache Tools Validate | Browser Mode: IE9 Compat View   Document Mode: IE7 standards" and a submenu with the options "HTML CSS Console Script Profiler Network"
    I never realized how often I type this letter combination.  I find myself actually trying to think ahead and avoiding any word that might have "oun" in it.  This only happens on this HP Probook, and not any of the other machines here with the same release of MS Office.
    Any clues as to what is going on, and how I can fix it, make it stop or go away?
    Thanks!

    Well, thanks for the suggestion.  I have tried what you suggested.  I used Control Panel to uninstall HP Power Management, then downloaded and installed the version behind your link.  But... it still does it.  I thought is was only happening in MS Office products, where any word with the characters "oun" will bring up the "Save As" window.  But, even, here, in IE, if I type a word like counted or found, up pops a weird window on the bottom third of the screed that shows me HTML or CSS tabs, and let me choose style or document views... I never realized how many words have the characters o u n in succession in them until I hit this wall.  I have also learned that if I type them slow enough, I am not kicked out... I'd REALLY love to know what program is the root of this redirect and just uninstall or remove it.  But it appears that HP Power Management is not the solution, unless by manually uninstall, you could point me to the files I need to manually delete that Control Panel uninstall did not grab.
    With hope...

  • Safari save as window opens larger than screen size and I can't get to the

    In safari, I choose File -> Save As. The save dialogue window is taller than my screen and the buttons get buried under my bottom toolbar. I can't reach the save buttons and I can't seem to reach the right hand corner to manual resize it. I've tried clicking the green button in the top left hand corner but it doesn't change a thing.
    thanks to anyone that can clear this up.
    s

    I tried clicking the blue export button so its pointing down and the save dialogue window does shrink. However, the adjustable dashes that normally appear in the bottom right hand corner, are not there. The only appear when the export button is pointing up. Too bad I can't reach it.
    Your 2nd idea worked! My display was already at max resolution BUT I had a 2nd monitor and dragged the save box over and the smaller display was enough to reach that bottom corner.
    yeah!

  • PSE 12 won't save the tiff file over the original, but brings up save as window

    I've solved (or had help) solving this problem before:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/5893872#5893872
    I am using PSE 12 as a photo editor for Aperture 3.5.1 and the photo is duplicated (as a tiff) in Aperture and PSE editor opens with the image.  When I close the file and say to save the file it brings up the save as window.
    The fix from the earlier discussion worked fine at first, but now, even though I tell PSE 12 to "on first save -- save over current file" it now brings up the "save as" window and won't save over the file (changes the file type from .tiff to .tif)
    Has something changed?

    Go to the editore preferences>general, click this button and restart the editor, then try again (You will need to reset the saving files pref first):

  • Save As window comes up when saving a WebI document another user modified

    When trying to save a Web Intelligence document in the "Web" mode (not the java "Rich Internet Application" mode), users get a "Save As" window if another user was the last one to save the document.  The user can simply select the same location and "overwrite" the existing report.  They can also use the Rich Internet Application mode instead, since this does not have the same issue.  After that, the same user can continue to save the report as usual, until another user saves it.  The user has full control permissions to the document and to the folder.
    This doesn't seem like it would be a big deal, but most of our users access reports using hyperlinks from other websites, which opens the document directly in the web mode; and they just make simple changes like selecting a different value in an input control.  If the Save As window comes up, it takes them to their Favorites folder, and they usually don't know which public folder the report is stored in.

    I can not print anything from Firefox but on IE everything prints just fine. I happen to like Firefox a whole lot better so would appreciate a solution to my problem.

  • Save as window pop up serveral times while printing ONE file, and need to combine 2 files after print. Why??

    I am using Acrobat 8 Professional.  I was trying to print 3 worksheets from Excel file to PDF file, after I selected the Adobe PDF printer driver, the save as window pop up, I click save after I place the file name, after the pdf generated 2 pages, the save as window pop up again, I need to save the file in different name. After the print job is done, I need to combine two file manually without any error.  Please find the attached file to try.

    I have experienced this same problem with multipage excel files.  Try this: instead of using 'print' then 'acrobat', create the pdf by choosing 'Adobe', then 'Create pdf' from excels ribbon (at the top).  I use Excel 2007 so the same solution may not work for you.  Best of luck.
