TS4040 Unable to save some files

I can save TextEdit files OK, but I cannot save Pages or Photoshop files anymore. Very odd. The message I get is that I don't have the right permissions. But I am the administrator and have all Read and Write permissions in Prefs. I also did APPLY TO ENCLOSED ITEMS on the Home folder. Then I restarted the iMac. MacOS 10.7.4. No problem until just now. Nothing doing. Still can't save Pages or Photoshop... But I can save TextEdit files!
The only new element is that I did a migration to my new MacBookPro, and was asked to change the name of the computer, the MacBook Pro, I assume (since two computers can't have the same name). But did I change the iMac's name by mistake?
In System Preferences/Sharing, my computer is named "LaurentsiMac".
In System Preferences/Users, I am "Laurent Sauerwein" and I'm the administrator.
In the Home folder Info Box, I am named "laurentsauerwein (me)" with Read & Write permissions.
Does that make sense?
Thanks for help.

Hi Saquib,
Thanks for this, but it has not helped. The problem is in MSS when the Manager tries to approve the time. I have no problems entering it in ESS.

I get this error message when I save some files "sty is null"

When I try to save some files I get an error message that says Unable to initialize the UI, sty is null. It happens mostly when saving files to an Aaptorefromtdotnet e commerce web site. If I click OK either it file saves or I get a second error message, exactly like above only with the added Prevent this page from creating additional settings. A check box is beside it. If I click in the check box and then OK, the file saves, but when using other options on the website, Firefox crashes.
Please let me know what this is and how do I eliminate it?
I am running an i Mac with Yosemite and a newly downloaded Firefox.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I have Adobe reader installed. However, I am unable to open some files because it is asking for Adobe's approval to open the files. How do I do this please?

I have Adobe reader installed. However, I am unable to open some files because it is asking for Adobe's approval to open the files. How do I do this please?

That message is NOT from Adobe, and has nothing to do with Adobe's approval for anything.
Quite the opposite: Adobe Reader is NOT YET RUNNING, Adobe aren't involved. Some other app or program is putting out that message. Have you tried giving that permission?

Unable to save indt files at all

Hi, I've looked through the forums but haven't found a solution that's worked or the quite the same problem as I have, so here it goes:
I have InDesign CS6 version 8.0.1 with Windows 7 64-bit however I have been unable to save .indt files sent to me from a couple different sources.
When opening the file I also get the warning message saying I'm missing the "LILO.InDesignPlugin" but the template still seems to open no problem.
However, when I click 'Save', 'Save As', or even 'Save a Copy' nothing happens. None of them are greyed out, but no window pops-up for me to save the file, even if I make changes.
I tried exporting the file as anything else but nothing works--I get the "Failed to export the PDF file" message every time.
Any thoughts on how to resolve this?
Thanks for the help!

When opening the file I also get the warning message saying I'm missing the "LILO.InDesignPlugin" but the template still seems to open no problem.
Your InDesign installation is clearly corrupt. Uninstall and reinstall.
It may be sufficient to rerun the installation without uninstalling, but it might not.

Help!! - "The HP Scan Application was unable to save the file to the specified location."

New OJ6830, latest HP software installed on Win7 64 bit.
HP Scan scans and displays the scanned pages. But, when I try to save the file as a pdf or tiff, I get the following error message:
"The HP Scan Application was unable to save the file to the specified location."
BTW, I have tried running the app as Administrator and have disabled my antivirus software.
Why won't the HP scan app save the file? Has anyone else seen this error message?
Is there anything else I can do, or this this just a major bug in HP scan software?

Mike,
One Idea:
Make sure you have "San Preview" checked else the software will not accept "specified location".
Reference:
Save Scan to Specified Location

SpaceFM Error - Error: Unable to save session file. Permission denied

Hi.
I have just installed linux-rt from AUR
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=51360
Everything installed correctly and is working so far.
It's just that whenever I'm with a folder open (even if I dont do anything) and click the X to close the window, this error appears:
SpaceFM Error
Error: Unable to save session file.
Do you want to exit without saving?
( Permission denied )
I usually click yes and nothing happens - or seems to.
If it helps, I AM able to read, write, copy and delete files.
The problem ( I THINK ) seems to be just aesthetics AND/OR not affecting me at the moment?
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: In fact LOTS of issues just showed up...
1- Transmission doesn't resume downloads.
I closed it and opened again and there were no downloads and when I tried to start them again, there was an error saying: Unable to save resume file (or something close)
2- I just logged in (at the login screen, lol) as root and ALL problems disappeared, transmission saves things again, no more SpaceFM error etc.
Anyone has any clues what is this permissions problem ?? The whole OS is new and I didn't install anything, it wasn't supposed to be happening.

"The HP scan application was unable to save the file to the specified location. "

I can copy and print from my computer but when I try to save the scan I get an error message saying the HP app was unable to save the file to the specified location. I reloaded the cd and that did not help.

Hello jerlip, Welcome to the HP Forums. I see that you are having an issue when attempting to save a scan. I suggest that we try running the HP Print and Scan Doctor. If you see any error codes or messages, please let me know what they are. Write me back when you have time and I will be happy to research other options if needed. Cheers,

As of today I am unable to save PDF files that are attachments of emails. Can you help?

The save as button is grey & unable to save any PDF file. This problem began today so can this be changed?

Tech support visits occasionally but for the most part it's just us fellow users.
In order to use just "save", you would have to make some changes to the pdf to be saved. If you have made no changes, can you use "Save as"?
Are these files being opened in Reader directly or are you opening them in a web browser using the Reader plug-in? What version of Reader?

Unable to save edited files

Hello Group,
Has anyone experienced this problem?? We have had this
problem 2 times, and it seems related to after a Windows automatic
update as run. Platform is an HP laptop, running windows XP.
We have several *.cp files. We open one file, and delete an
audio track from a slide, and then attempt to save the edited file.
The edited file will not save. For some reason Captivate
still sees the "different" file name as the same name as previous
file. The edit is not saved. We even created a new folder on the
C:\ drive, and copy a file in, open it, or attempt to open an
edited file that somehow got saved, and then Captivate say "this
file is in a format that captivate does not recogize"
Has anyone else seen something like this?
captivate seems to work ok on my desktop pc, but not the
laptop??? Perhaps it is some sort of problem with the laptop
Thanks,
eholz1

I was wondering if either of you have had any luck nailing
down this problem. We are experiencing it on one of our laptops as
well and I have been baffled by it.
The laptop is a Dell with XP SP2, it was running Captivate
1.0.1 for a while and was upgrade to Captivate 2.0 without removing
Captivate 1. This configuration has worked for months, but suddenly
I can't save anything. If you hit save the hourglass pops up and
goes away with no error messages, but the * in the titlebar
indicating unsaved changes is still there and when I try to close
it asks to save. If I say no or cancel it acts properly, but if I
hit yes to save it, is just goes back to Captivate and doesn't
close or save. Save As will save a file, but it is usually corrupt
when I try to open it later, and the * still doesn't go away.
I have gone so far as to run ProcessMonitor from Sysinternals
but it doesn't show any errors. It doesn't even show that it is
trying to save it. If there are any patches or updates for
Captivate 2 I have been unable to find them on Adobe's site.

Hey guys,
So this is follow up from my debarkle with the EDD. I found out my problem with copying files from Mac to EDD and vice versa was a result of a not so good EDD ( i had an apollo hard drive from imation) that was not very compatible with macs. So i did my research and found out that the best hard drives were Western Digital and Seagate. I bought the newest western digital EDD 1TB and formated it to FAT32 and guess what...no problems so far. The only problem is that FAT32 format doesn't copy files larger than about 4 gigs so i couldnt copy a movie from my brothers computer onto my EDD that was 1080p. You could probably resolve that by partitioning a small part of your hard drive in ExFAT? but yeah, hopefully that helped guys.

Unable to save PDF files (sometimes?)

Hi All,
There are times when I'm working with Elements 6.0 that everything is working normally. I can play and adjust and save files to my little hearts desire. There are other times when I'll open a file, make my adjustments, save the file and when I go back to look at the saved file, there is no preview and I am unable to open it. The properties says it is not a PFD, just "1 File". Any clues as to why I am having this intermittent problem would be most appreciated. The picture you see here is from a file that Elements 6.0 says it does not recognize and there is no preview. But yet I can select it and preview it here. HELP!!!!
See attached....
Thank you

Unable to save .cptx file to Sharepoint

Prior to upgrading from Captivate 4 to Captivate 5, I was able to save a Captivate file directly from Captivate into a Sharepoint library. I am now running Captivate 5.0 on Windows 7 and receive the following error when try to Save or Save As from Captivate.
I have tried troubleshooting by installing 5.0 on XP and received the same error when trying to Save or Save As.
I have tried to Save the file when opening Captivate as "Run as Administrator" and not.
I had only one project open when trying to Save/Save As.
I asked teammates to log on to my machine and try to Save to Sharepoint wondering if it could be my login, but no one was able to Save or Save As from 5.0.
I am, however, able to Publish directly into the Sharepoint library.
Has anyone encountered this error before? Seen issues with Captivate 5 and Sharepoint?
Thanks for any help!

If you want to store your backup Captivate CPTX files in a Sharepoint drive or a LAN drive, that is your choice. But I must repeat my warning above...Never open a CPTX file directly in Captivate over a LAN connection or from any other location than from your local hard drive otherwise you risk corrupting the project file and losing potentially weeks or months of work.
So if your team wants to store the project files somewhere that everyone can get to them, that's fine. Use a Check Out / Check In policy so that no more than one person is working on a given file at a time. Mandate that when the person checks out the file, they MUST copy it to their local hard drive, BEFORE opening it with Captivate to work on it from there. When checking the file back in, mandate that the user must close the file in Captivate and use Windows Explorer or some other method to check it back into the common repository.
By all means, for the purposes of demonstrating Sharepoint you can make it LOOK like you use the Team Site as your repository. But unless you want to experience hugely frustrating performance and corruption issues with Captivate, as many others before you have, you would be wise to heed the advice above.
