The "save as" button disappeared in KeyNote? The duplicate button is no alternative.

Does somebody know where the Save As button has gone in Keynote?

Actually, you can bring back the "Save As" function and I found a way to do it in Youtube. It takes a couple of minutes to hack it back in.
My problem is that the new interface ***** still, because it keeps saving everything when I close the presentation, so sometimes when I make changes that I don't want saved, like for example breaking a presentation to smaller pieces,  it will still will save the last version even if I don't want to.
My concern is a bit deeper. I used to like to work with keynote, but I think Apple is taking a wrong path.
Apple upgrades  used to be problem solver. Now they create problems instead.
Whoever genius came up with the idea of messing up the whole  save process, certainly didn't have the users in mind. I know how I work and how I want to work and I want to be one who will chose whice version and how will be saved, not  Apple.  I am more and more losing the ability to chose , as Apple further develops their products and that simply frustrates me. I have to learn new ways to bypass the system in order to work as effectively as I did before. If Apple wants to make the mistakes Microsoft did in the 90's, well they should not take us users for granted.

  • 'Save layout' button missing in the ALV report layout screen

    Hi Friends,
         In one of our ALV report the 'save layout' button is missing in the report output screen.i have used the OO concept for creating the ALV output and not the function module.I have attached the code below used for creating the ALV grid.
    CREATE OBJECT alv_grid
          EXPORTING i_parent = g_container_2.
    CALL METHOD alv_grid->set_table_for_first_display
         exporting
                   i_structure_name = 'PA0002'
                   is_layout =
           CHANGING
                     it_outtab = gt_outtab
                     it_fieldcatalog = wa_fieldcat.
    But i'm not able to trace why the 'save layout' button is missing in the output.Can anyone of you help me in sorting out this problem.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Vadivel.

    Pass <u><i><b>A to I_SAVE</b></i></u> parameter. That will give the options to the user to save the layout outs.
    I_SAVE = SPACE
    Layouts cannot be saved.
    I_SAVE = 'U'
    Only user-defined layouts can be saved.
    I_SAVE = 'X'
    Only global layouts can be saved.
    I_SAVE = 'A'
    Both user-defined and global layouts can be saved.

  • Why Doesn't the Acrobat File Toolbar Have a "Save As" Button?

    One of the most frequently used functions in Acrobat is located under the File menu where you can select "Save As" to select from a number of different file formats and then save the file in a specified folder.  The File Toolbar includes a "Save" icon/button that saves only a pdf formatted file to your Documents folder (or whichever folder you specify in Preferences) instead of to whatever specific folder you might want to file that particular document.  Another problem is that when you receive a pdf document by email or download it from the internet, it usually comes with a file name that you wouldn't want to use for the file.  Once the file is open, you'll want to rename it and save it somewhere.  However, if you have not changed the document in any way like editing or commenting, the only applicable icon on the File Toolbar, the Save button, is greyed out and can't be used until you alter the document.
    As such, the easy access to the "Save" button on the File Toolbar is wasted in that it will rarely be used when it's not greyed out, and when it might be used before any editing or commenting, it remains greyed out and inaccessible.  My request is to make an Icon or even just the label for "Save As" available for selection to go on the File Toolbar where it could be easily accessed.  Also, let the user decide if he wants to do a save before altering a document, skip the greying out of the buttons, make them always available for use.

    Unfortunately it's not a realistic possibility, because the Save As menu has two sub-levels across several nodes. A drop-down button can't handle that.

  • Save the contents into hard disk on click of Save As button in Swing

    Hi,
    I have a JButton "Save As". On clicking the button, the contents in the JTextArea should be saved in the local hard disk by opening a Save As dialog box and allowing the user to save in any location.
    Is it possible to do this? If so, please inform me how it could be done.

    I am using Indesign cs5 version 7.0.4 with a mac OS X version 10.9.4. I am having an issue where the save and save as option disappears. I am exporting the file as .idml and then resaving to avoid losing work but has to import all the images which takes ages. Any help out there?

    I believe there are a couple of similar threads about CC or CC2014 behaving this way that might give yo some hints, but CS5 is not supported on your OS and may not run properly regardless of what you do. An in-place OS upgrade or an attempt to migrate the application would both be major problems for ID, so if you did either of those things you'll want to uninstall, run the cleaner tool (CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3) and reinstall.

  • "Save attachments" button in Mail has disappeared

    My "Save attachments" button in Mail (6.6/1510) disappeared the other day. It has always been there, sitting on the dividing line between message header and message content. But now it's gone. All of a sudden.
    Sure, it becomes visible if I select detailed header info, but it should be there even with the simplified header view. At least it has been up to a few days ago.
    Any tips on how I get it back? It's a bit annoying to select detalied header info each time I want to save attachments. Dragging and dropping is no option for me, since part of what I want is to se a list of all attachments. The "Save" button provides that feature.

    First of all, in the Compose window, click on View and see if Show Toolbar is available as a Command? If so, click on it.

  • Making the "!" Appear so I can make the Duplicate Items Disappear

    I just recently somewhat successfully relocated my itunes library to an external hard drive.
    I actually had been manually backing up music to that hard drive by dragging and dropping over the past year or so, and clearing out my itunes library on my computer.
    Once I relocated the library to the folder on the external hard drive, I dragged and dropped everything from the external folder into itunes. It copied everything successfully and also organized everything on my hard drive and will continue to do so.
    The problem is that I did not remember to clear out what was in my itunes library on my computer until afterwards. What I should have done is wiped out my library in itunes, and moved everything to the trash but I didn't. I chucked the whole itunes file without checking and then created my current situation:
    For about 20 GB of music there are duplicate listings in the library itself but no files to back them up.
    The issue is that some of those link to actual files, while others if played would show the exclamation point.
    How do I get the duplicates without files to show the exclamation point so that I can delete those entries in the library without mistakenly erasing files from the library itself?
    If there is a better way to make these "dummy listings" disappear I would be happy to hear it.

    how about this then:
    _*Music Folder Files Not Added v2.0*_
    This application will list the file paths of the files in your designated "iTunes Media" folder which are not in iTunes' library. Additionally, you can select a different parent folder and its contents will be compared to the iTunes library. Options to Add a selection of found files to iTunes or *move them to the Trash*.

  • "Save image" button of Camera Raw does not save JPEG with modifications made.

    I am using Bridge CC to process my RAW images and make modifications to some JPEG images as well.  I have no need to further alter images in Photoshop at the moment, so I do all modifications in Camera Raw. After altering my images, I then press the "save image" button at the left bottom corner of Camera Raw and choose the settings to save in JPEG.  However, when I upload these JPEG images to a website or when I email them, the image is uploaded without the modifications I had done!  It seems to me that Camera Raw is saving JPEGs the same way it does for RAW images, in a non-destructive manner, only attaching instructions for the images to be displayed properly on Photoshop. But when I save an image in JPEG, I expect the image to be saved entirely with the modifications I made while still keeping the original RAW file.  What goes on then?  What is Camera Raw doing and how do I get to save a modified image in JPEG with Camera Raw?  Would you please explain?
    Many thanks for your help,
    Beza

    Hi,
    What version of camera raw and operating system are you using?

  • HT4753 Is there already a rant thread to restore save as button and disable autosave?

    I found some threads with users having problems with new autosave and duplicate feature, and none of them contained an answer, and I was asking myself if there is an "Apple give us the save as button" back thread somewhere already.
    First of all this autosave behaviour. I really don't want pages or numbers to save every nonsense I may write in a file, sometimes by simply mistyping cmd-v in a wrong window, without me telling it to do so. How dumb is that?
    Second, why is the save as button gone? And no, duplicate is not the same, because duplicate doesn't start in the same folder. If I write an invoice to the customer, I take the invoice from the last month, click save as, select new number and change some dates and sums. This means, I did before 10.7. Now I have to find this very invoice on disk, which is not everytime easy to click through, click c&p, create a new invoice, and than i can start working on it. Annoying. If I click duplicate in an open document, it starts with the default folder, which is wrong in 99.99% of the cases.
    Alas, the autolocking function on freshly created copies. This is just dumb. Really.
    So, what the deal with removing such a simple button as save as?
    I was being using iWork for business since 2007, and I have had hard time to convince everyone in the office to be on mac, and just as I achieved that, ... Well, now the people want to move to MsOffice again, isn't it silly? Thank you Apple.
    P.S. And yes I tried to live with it for 9 month, but I can't get used to it.
    P.P.S. I don't want to use ms-office....

    Not Dumb at all. Very intelligent actually. Why on earth should protecting your data require an extra step - saving? All that's happening here is that the app is defaulting to protect the data, instead of defaulting to having the data unprotected. It's common sense that it should take an extra step to trash data, not to save it. What's odd is that no computer up to now has defaulted to protecting the data.
    But in fact is acting the opposite way. Instead of protecting my data is trashes the data, by saving when I wanted it not to. Do I actually have to kill the pages from terminal with -9 to prevent it from saving my data?
    Maybe other people find it useful, great, then why not just make it optional and let those who do not need it switch it off?

    If I write an invoice to the customer, I take the invoice from the last month, click save as, select new number and change some dates and sums.
    So, to be clear, you're using last month Invoice as a Template, right? So, why do that when you can just use an actual Template? Much more simple. That's what that whole 'Save as Template' command is about.
    This would mean that I have to save each and every document I write as template? I have several customers and always write the new invoice based on the previous one (change in adress, other people worked on it, etc). Saving it each time as template and creating a new one from template is not really an easy workaround to the save as thing. And, yes, TextMate, Eclipse and 1000 other programms do offer a save as button, and I never lost any data in it yet...

  • Making a "Save As" button on a form

    I need to make a "Save As" button on a form created in Designer 8.0.
    This will go on a form that will be enabled for Reader 8.0, so user can fill in form, save filled form, and submit via e-mail.
    I have tried to figure how to add a regular Button, and add a simple menu functionality like "Save As" but cannot.
    I need step-by-step instructions for this, please... and I do not know much about scripting at all.
    TIA,
    Glenn Cauley

    Have a look in the Help (index Script Editor => about). This should give you more insight into how the Script Editor is used.
    For this example, you'd just need to select your button, make sure the 'click' event is in the 'Show' drop-down, select 'JavaScript' from the 'Language' drop-down and then paste the script into the script editing field.
    Thanks,
