Unable to save a gradient to a swatch panel

Help,  I was always able to do this before.  (should be simple...) I made a gradient and just want to save / add it to a Swatch Panel that I've already defined and saved.  I used to be able to drag (I think) the gradient into the desired Swatch Panel and then 'save the swatch again' It won't let me do this today even though I just did it last night!  :-( 
I'm working on a Windows 7 machine and I am using Illustrator CS5....
Very frustrating; any help would be super, thanks!

humm, thank you for the reply.  I'm not sure what I did last night then (and many other times, I still have others saved too)   I have a Swatch panel with all the gradients I saved for one project.  I can open a new document, call up that swatch panel by choosing to view a USER DEFINED panel with a name I saved it as...and all my gradients are right there....so I'm entirely confused now.  All I did was drag the gradient over to it and resave it???
Frustrating.  I saved 3 gradients just last night and it worked perfectly..... 
Now I can't drag the new gradient over to the panel I previously saved.  When I try to it beeps at me.
In case I'm describing this totally wrong I've inserted a pic of the Panel which I've named TES GRADIENTS and even circled the gradients... there all 3 of them are.  How did I do that LOL....

  • How to save Gradient in Swatches Panel

    Hi!
    I want to save a gradient in swatches panel. I dont find any option there. What to do?

    You cannot save a gradient in the swatches panel. You can save it as a style in the Styles panel, however.

  • Gradient fills in Appearance panel

    I have multiple fills on an object. One of the fills is a gradient. If I want to change the gradient to another gradient, I click on the gradient fill in the Appearance panel. I have quite a few gradients in the Swatches panel but in the drop down list of color swatches that appears in the Appearance panel, only solid colors are shown.
    Is there a way to see all of the swatches, including gradients and patterns, when using the Appearance panel to change a fill?

    When you look in the swatches for the drop down in the appearance panel. Find the third icon from the left. Click on it and select show all swatches. Then the gradients will show.

    I am not sure whats going wrong, but I am unable to save variants.
    Please help.
    Thanks,
    Vishal.

    The F4 will display you the existing layouts only. So you need to save the layout first & then execute the report again & check if you are getting F4 values for that field.
    The Layout needs to get stored with variant.

    how can i stop an error message that comes up when i am using word? the error message is "word is unable to save the Autorecover file in the location specified. Make sure that you have specified a valid location for Autoreover files in Preferences,…"

    It sounds like if you open Preferences in Word there will be a place where you can specify where to store autorecover files. Right now it sounds like it's pointing to somewhere that doesn't exist.

    Microsoft Office 2004 (Word) unable to save files
    I have been running Office 2004 on my Intel iMac with Snow Leopard for some time and all of a sudden I cannot save a document. Word just stopped responding and I have to force quit. I can open Word and create a new document but I cannot save it. I reinstalled Word but that didn’t help. Then went to the Internet and found at least one other Mac user having the same problem which it suggests is caused by a recent Mac Security Update:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2004-macword/word-2004-wil l-not-open-or-save-documents/b04eb870-9b0d-4f3b-bb47-b122301e36f6
    So I check for a new Mac Security Update and sure enough there was one. I downloaded it and now Word seems to be working, as it should. I can both open and save files. The only problem remaining is that when I open Word I get the following error message “An unexpected error occurred while trying to load the Microsoft Framework library”. I contacted Apple but they were unable to help.
    How can I get rid of this error message?

    Look, I realize you might have to get your machine working, so this is how you revert back.
    Restore proceedure to pre-Security Update 2012-001 v 1.0 & v 1.1
    #1 Backup your personal data off the machine.
    Backup files off the computer (not to TimeMachine). If you don't have a external drive, get one and connect to the USB/Firewire port and simply drag and drop copy your User folder to the external drive, it will copy all your files. It's best to have two backups of your data off the machine when trying to restore.
    Disconnect all drives now to prevent any mistakes from occuring.
    #2 Reinstall OS X 10.6 from disk
    Get out your 10.6 install disk and make sure it's clean and polished (very soft cloth and a bit of rubbing alcohol, no scratches) If your disk is borked, you'll have to order a new one from Apple with your serial number.
    Hold c boot off the 10.6 disk (wired keyboard, internal optical drive), use Disk Utility First Aid to >Repair Disk  of your internal drive  (do not format or erase!!), Quit DU and simply re-install 10.6.
    Note: Simply reinstalling 10.6 version from disk (without erasing the drive) only replaces 10.6.8 with 10.6.x and bundled Apple programs, won't touch your files (backup anyway)  or most programs, unless they installed a kext file into OS X itself. (only a few on average do this)
    #3 Update to 10.6.8 without Security Update 2012-001 v1.0 or v1.1
    Reboot and log in, update to 10.6.8 via Software Update, but EXCLUDE THE Security Update 2012-001 by checkinig the details and unchecking the blue check box.
    #4 Reinstall any non-working third party programs
    When you reboot, make sure to reinstall any programs that require kext files installed into OS X, you'll know, they won't work when you launch them or hang for some reason as they are missing the part they installed into OS X.
    If for some freakish reason you get gray screen at any time when booting (possible it might occur when you reinstall older programs), hold the shift key down while booting (Safe Mode, disables kext files) and update your installed third party software so it's compatible with 10.6.8.
    https://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
    That's it really.

  • Discoverer Report unable to Save As

    Hi,
    I am unable to save a Discoverer Report using Discoverer Viewer ?
    Its giving the following error message.
    Please help.
    "The application encountered an invalid state.

    Regards

    Hi Ram
    Most likely you are on either a non-upgraded or old cumulative patch version of Discoverer. This issue happens a lot on the out-of-the-box Discoverer - 10.1.2.48.18 but goes away when you upgrade to 10.1.2.2. You should also patch up to the most recent cumulative patch, which as of today is CP8.
    Please see this posting on my blog for more about patch and release numbers: http://learndiscoverer.blogspot.com/2008/04/most-useful-patch-numbers.html

  • Unable to save a report that includes a datasource of "Microsoft SQL azure" type

    I have install SSRS in azure using the following instructions (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn449661.aspx) and all seems to work fine, however when I create a report in report builder 2014 (in this case empty) that includes a Microsoft SQL Azure
    datasource type I am unable to save the report and get the following error message (even though when I test connection it succeeds). 
    "The report definition was saved, but one or more errors occurred while setting the report properties"
    Reports with standard sql datasources work fine.
    I have also tried creating the report using Visual Studio 2013 and get a similar error message.
    I have tried this using SQL 2012 and SQL 2014 and get the same error.
    Does anybody know how I can create a report with Microsoft SQL Azure datasource type?

    Hi jamesla,
    Based on my research, the issue can be caused by a deleted shared data source still exist under the Data Sources list in Report Builder. For more details about this scenario, we can refer to the following thread:
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/7170dbee-048c-4298-89ba-df4d42924c8e/the-report-definition-was-saved-but-one-or-more-errors-occurred-while-setting-report-properties?forum=sqlreportingservices
    Since the error message without detail information, we can try to render the report to see the detail error message. Besides, we can try to check it in the log file. The SQL Reporting Services log files are found on the reporting services point server, in
    the folder %programfiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\<SQL Server Instance>\Reporting Services\LogFiles.
    For more information about how to use Microsoft SQL azure as the data source of a report, please see:

  • Still unable to save bookmarks in Safari 5.1.2 - any clues?

    Starting with Safari 5.1.1 on Lion I have been unable to save any bookmarks after an initial few hours running when it has been possible. I had hoped that the new release of Safari 5.1.2 might have cured the problem, but it doesn't appear to have done so.
    I've followed all the suggestions on various posts and cleared the numerous plists and caches. This results in being able to save bookmarks in the normal manner, but only for a few hours or so. The next time I open Safari I find that I am once again unable to save any bookmarks without going through the whole rigmarole of exporting the bookmarks, trashing all the Safari preferences, restarting Safri and importing all the bookmarks once again.
    It's great if you have the time and the patience, but my patience is wearing very thin by now.
    Does anyone have any definitive solutions to this problem, which happens on all my Macs running Lion and Safari 5.1, thus ruling out a problem with just one Mac?

    I am unable to save my form responses as a pdf or excel file.  The error message states: Acrobat.com could not save this file. The file might be open in another application and cannot be overwritten.

    Did saving ever work or did it fail the first time you tried?
    Have you tried to save to multiple locations?  Maybe it has something to do with permissions on the directory you are trying to save to.
    Have you tried saving something from another web site to the same location?  Try creating and saving a file in/from https://workspaces.acrobat.com/app.html#o and see if that has the same result.
