Unable to save an existing doc

Hello
I have an existing document that has been saved. I began working on it again, and it is not saving, although I am clicking save. It will not let me save as either. I have tried saving it in other locations, including an extrnal hard drive. The doc is about 200 pages and contains diagrams. I am using Microsoft 2011. I was able to save it as a pdf
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Jayne-Louise

What happens when you choose to save it as a PDF document from the Print dialog? If the PDF document is subsequently opened in Preview, does it appear as expected? If so, then there's nothing wrong with AppleWorks.

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

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.

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:

How do I save a Pages doc to my desktop folders?

Hi, I'm new to Mac and Pages and want to save a document to a folder on my desktop. But I don't have Save As as an option in File. I appear to be able to save only to iCloud or Documents essentially. Any suggestions?

When you are ready to save your Pages doc, hold down the option key while selecting the File menu. Now, Save As ... appears. Select it.
Initially, you will see iCloud on the selector. Click and hold, then choose Desktop from the drop down menu.
Now, click on the little down-arrow. This opens a file selection window on the Desktop, where you can scroll to the existing Folder, create a new one, and then save your file.

How do I save a pages doc to mobile me cloud

It seems this would be simple. But I can't figure out how to do it. I save everything to it when using my laptop and it has saved me from losing important documents when my laptop crashed. Any help is appreciated.

Unable to save a document after signing it in Adobe Acrobat Standard XI.

I have a user who is unable to save .PDF files that he is opening in Outlook via an embedded link in the email.
When he clicks on the link, Acrobat opens the document without issue. However, when he applies his signature and goes to save it over the existing document on our internal network file server, he gets the following message: "The document could be saved. The disk you were saving to or the disk used for temporary files is full. Free some space on this disk and try again, or save to a different disk."
The network drive has a significant amount of space available, at least 500 gigs.
This was not an issue up until Friday of last week. Prior to Friday, he had no issue signing documents emailed to him that contained a embedded link pointing back to the file on our internal network file server. If I have him browse directly to the file in Windows Explorer however, he can open sign the document and overwrite the existing copy. While that works, I would like him to regain the ability to save his file after opening it from his email; as unless I show him how to get to the file directly via Explorer, he is unable to do so. (And he has to sign many documents a day as well)
Other users on my network are not encountering this issue, however some are running a different mix of Office and Acrobat. (Such as Office 2010 and Acrobat X, etc)
I've researched this issue for prior versions of Acrobat and tried to applied the same resolutions for this issue without a positive result. So far I have been unable to find any solutions for this issue dealing with XI.
Has anyone else run ino this issue with Acrobat Standard XI? If so what did you do to resolve the issue? Thank you for any help that you can give me.
Here is the basic setup that his computer is running:
Windows 7 Profesional 64 bit
Microsoft Office 2013 Professional
Adobe Acrobat Standard XI
Internet Explorer 9
Also my user is has full Admin rights to his workstation and has the appropriate security rights to the folders he is trying to save the signed document to.

I would like to confirm the exact same message is happening with us.
Several users have been receiving the error message shown below when trying to save PDF’s to their desktop or other server.
We are experiencing the issue with earlier versions of Acrobat (8 & 9) as well.
This is only started happening this week?

I am unable to join my existing wireless network with new AirPort Express

I am unable to join my existing wireless network with new AirPort Express.
I am using a DLink DI-524 Router, Windows 7 (64), and the AirPort Express.
AirPort Utility will not recognize the AEX wirelessly, it will only recognize it when it is connected by Ethernet. I can then configure the AEX and verify that the settings stick once disconnected and then reconnected. However, even after that, it will not recognize the AEX once disconnected from the Ethernet cable.
I followed the suggestions of several other threads on these forums. But I am unable to get the AEX to work.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the discussion area!
It's almost always a security setting that causes problems when the Airport Express (AX) tries to join a third party wireless network. The AX usually does not "join" correctly and that's why you can't see it on your wireless network using AirPort Utility.
Using an ethernet cable is still the more reliable way to configure and adjust the AX, but if you are want to try to configure it using wireless, you must return the AX back to factory defaults as follows:
Power down the AX
Hold in the reset button +and keep holding it in+ as you plug the AX back in to power
Release the reset button after 10 seconds
When it is set to factory defaults, the AX broadcasts a wireless signal with a network name like "apple network xxxxxx" where the "x's" are either letters or numbers. You must look for this network by clicking on the fan shaped Airport icon at the top of the screen. If you don't see this network, then click Join Other Network to search that way. Unless you connect to this network, you will not be able to configure the AX using wireless.
Do you know the exact security type that your D-Link router is using? That is the key element in the process.
Open AirPort utility, click Manual Setup
Click the Base Station tab to establish a name for the AX, device password and adjust time zone settings
Click the Wireless tab
Wireless Mode....Join a wireless network
Wireless Network Name...must exactly match your D-Link wireless network name
Enable ethernet clients if you want the port to be active (your D-Link must be compatible with ProxySTA for this to work)
Wireless Security...exact setting of the D-Link network. WEP security causes a lot of issues. Try to use WPA/WPA2 Personal, which is far more secure.
Wireless Password...must match the D-Link network
Click the Music icon to enable AirTunes
Click Update to save settings
Any luck?

Unable to save in SQL Developer..

Screenshot I work for an enterprise support desk, and one of our clients uses SQL Developer. When he goes to save, he is unable to choose a location. If he clicks a directory on the left nothing populates, he cannot type in a directory at the top, and if he clicks save, the window flashes but no file is saved anywhere. Does any one have any idea what could cause this or a solution to this problem.

I do not know much about SQL Developer, one of the 1300 users we support uses it.
From what I understood while troublehsooting, he is unable to save ANYTHING. Mostly he writes scripts in a workspace on the right side of the window, but I am not sure of the correct term.
When he clicks the directories, we single clicked, double clicked, triple clicked, doesn't matter how many times we clicked, nothing from that directory populated. For example, if he tried to save to the dekstop and double clicked the deskop icon on the left of the save window, no items or folders that exist on his desktop populate in the navigation panel on the right.
You cannot save to a local hard drive because you cannot save anywhere.... you cannot decided whether you want tos ave to a network location or a local location because you cannot navigate to where you want to save in the first place, hence why we are having this discussion.

Preflight keeps saying "Unable to save the PDF File after post processing"

I'm at a loss how to overcome this. Spent almost a whole day, together with another person, trying to fix it with no success!
I use Adobe pro CC on a PC
I usually receive pdf files from this one client who edits and formats a book in Mac Pages. Up until a few days ago I had no problems converting the client's pdfs into pdf/x3, but the last three versions of the latest file have stumped me.
Just to test, I first just tried to convert the file (33MB), unchanged, to pdf/x3 using the save as other option - message reads "the document has been saved, however, it could not be converted according to the selected standard profile: convert to PDF/X. Please use preflight with the profile "Convert to PDF/X" in order to identify those properties of the document which prevent it from being compliant to this profile"
if I then choose under Profiles - convert to PDF/X3 - it says no problems found, and appears to have saved the file. If I try to save again as a pdf/x3, just to make sure, it then tells me it's not pdf/x3 compliant
OK - so then I go back to preflight - and choose the standards function - then pdf/x3, then continue with the default colour profile. About halfway through the conversion, at the point of saving the file, I get the message "unable to save the pdf file after post processing"
So far I've had no luck figuring out what this is.
I then choose the option of "verify compliance of ppdf/x3" - message reads "pdf/x3 version key (GTS_PDFXVersion) missing", and "Trapped key not true or false"
Help!! How can I be sure the file converted / or not?

Yes I was/am aware of Preflight's inability to play nicely over cloud technologies in certain cases, especially wrt Standards technologies, this will be partially addressed in an upcoming version of Preflight without saying too much. But the same thing could theoretically have happened if the file was also located on another local network client or server. Leaving aside the argument that this may violate the Acrobat User Agreement - since purchasing the software, the user agrees to employ its functionality on a single host system and precludes host-client-based scenarios - this simply is not a supported use, meaning the user may not have expectations that it will work at all, if the applications requirements are not observed. There do exist server-solutions for Preflight files within networks, but Acrobat and by extension Acrobat Preflight is not one of those solutions, and (still) belongs in the single host-based desktop environment.
However most (99.9%) functions within Acrobat <-> acrobat.com file exchange are supported, file syncing across multiple devices will soon be supported, but Standards compliance is still admittedly a problem at this point. Some testing has been done using 3rd party cloud technologies starting with enterprise-based solutions, such as Office 365, and this will continue to ramp up to include other 3rd party products.
As for the second point, Preflight will usually change the PDF version to be complaint, are you saying that it was unable to do so in this case? It seems that this error should have popped up during the normal Preflight conversion attempt. Personally I think solving a workflow problem using the print path is a little bit of a heavy-handed approach, but if helped and the results are acceptable, then that is good. Since that path is non-existent on a Mac, as one needs to Save as Adobe PDF from the Print dialog's PDF drop-down menu, I am assuming your workflow involved file creation on a Mac, then further processing on Windows using the PDF printer. I am wondering if a simple resave/Save As... to PDF with overwrite on a Mac, or Preflighting the file using a PDF version compatibility profile before the PDF/X conversion would have helped. Since there are such a multitude of methods that a PDF can be created, there are also many ways within Acrobat that a user can shape the file to be compatible with the expected workflow, ie, 'many ways to skin a cat', without being morbid.

Unable to save document as (Flash CS5 - BUG - OSX)

I have upgraded my CS4 to CS5 on MAC OSX and i'm having problems saving new and existing fla files. It doesnt always do it but it's very anoying when you have done some work and are unable to save it.
I get this message:
unable to save document as (file name)
please try saving to a different filename or location.
even if i try to save as to a different location i get the same message, this ONLY happens in flash CS5 and does not do it on any other application or even flash CS4. To put it bluntly i am absolutely furious with this and when you pay this amount of money should not get this hassle for such a simple action.
I have tried phoneing the adobe support line and it's a joke, you can't even understand the operator to even get anywhere and i just gave up having to repeat myself and asking them to repeat themselves.
I would be grateful if someone out there knows an answer to this or have a contact email for adobe support that i can email them direct. As a flash developer it's critical i can get on with my work without worrying if my work will even save.
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: I can save files in CS5 as CS4 documents but not as CS5, this is so annoying.

I am having this same issue with Window 7 Professional 64 bit.
It seems I can reproduce it pretty reliably but have only seen it since I started working with trying to import and export runtime shared font libraries.
I create a new fla
I create a font asset in the library and set it to import and specify a relative path to the shared swf.
I save and test my swf and it works.
I go back into the font asset and change the location of the font swf to another relative path (this file is loaded into a shell so the raltive path will change).
After changing that import path I can no longer save the file even if I revert back to the previous value.
I have repeated this process a couple of times.

Unable to save paragraph and character styles

I noticed an issue popping up for me in CS6 yesterday. I thought it was originally because of Fireworks saved PSD but an effort re-create the file from scratch in PS I'm coming across the same issue. In PS when I have a large amount of text layers and create a paragraph or character style, when I have ANY layer/group in my document locked I'm unable to save any paragraph or layer styles. Regardless of the layer or group being locked and regardless of what layer is highlighted I'm unable to save styles / any settings / name etc. The error I get for character styles for example is:
"Could not complete the Modify Named Character Style command because a specified layer is locked."
I did notice that in the Fireworks created PSD that without any layer even being locked I'd still get an error. It may be that this other document got some bad mojo from the Fireworks PSD. When creating a test doc and only creating a couple text layers and a bunch of empty groups and layers I'm unable to reproduce this. It appears to happen to me when I have a slew of text layers.
Has anyone else experienced this and figured out a more solid workaround?

If you want to add the styles to an already created document:
1) Create you Character style containing only the character color
2) Find and Replace, searching for text with red color and replace formatting with the new character style. (Don't type anything in the text part of the Find and Replace dialog)
3) Create and apply your paragraph style to all. The text with the Character Style applied will stay red.

Photoshop touch unable to save projects or create foldersI

i am unable to save projects or create folders in Photoshop Touch on my iPad Air 2. I have lots of space available and have closed all other apps. The PS Touch app is updated to most recent release.
After working on a file and then selecting the back arrow at the top left to take me out of the project, it prompts me to save the project. When I select "save" it appears to save the project. Then it goes out to the main screen where no projects exist so basically I keep losing any project I work on.
On the main screen, I'm also unable to create any folders. It seems that I'm creating a folder but then when I return to the main screen, nothing is there. I have tried to search the iPad storage to see if anything is being saved by PS Touch, but I see nothing.
I have tried restarting everything as well as re-installing the app, but still I get nothing.
Obviously this app is useless to me without being able to save anything so I realize I may have wasted my money. I'd appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the suggestion, however, i have tried it before (and tried again after your suggestion just in case) and still no luck.
It always appears to be saving the file and then when i get to the home screen (where i should see all the folders and projects) i see nothing still.

Unable to save or print .pdf using Safari 7.02. and Reader 11.0.6. (reinstalled reader) files ("save

Using Mac 10.9.2 and Reader 11.0.6 and Safari 7.0.2, problem seems to be linked to Safari
Files - using "save as" (.pdf) or "print as" (.pdf) appear as adobe single-page blank documents. When attempting to open them the following error message appears: "Adobe Reader could not open "filename.pdf" because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
Files created under previous versions of Reader are fine. No problem converting an existing .doc to .pdf using Reader 11.0.6
Any suggestions?

Hi ramsey32 ,
Thank You for posting in the forums. Kindly help with the information listed below for further assistance.
1) Does the PDF open fine in safari
2) Do you get a floating toolbar at the bottom, if yes, choose the save icon from there to save the PDF
3) Do the files open fine with Preview?
Thanks,
Vikrantt Singh
