Using my Mac, I cannot save a file back to the network drive from which it was opened.

This began occurring after upgrading to Yosemite. I can rename the file and "Save As", but merely attempting to save it gives a permissions error. "Get info" says I have full permissions to the file. I can save documents locally with no problem. It is not a problem with permissions on the server, as from my PC using the same login account, I can save to the drive just fine. It is only an issue on the Mac. It is only Photoshop that presents this problem; all other programs, Adobe and otherwise, allow saving to this drive with no issue. Tried resetting preferences to no avail. CS6 and OSX are both fully updated.

There is no way to backup the TC via Time Machine or internally.. so any file you place on the TC is at risk. You can certainly store it there.. and for a downloaded movie you may not worry particularly.. but if you wanted to build up a movie library on the TC (outside of itunes) then TC is not really suited to the task. You would really be better with an external drive plugged into the mini.

  • I want to upgrade to Mavericks. Will I need to reinstall all of my apps and copy my files back to the hard drive?  I have not installed an OS on a Mac before and I'm wondering whether it is as involved as on a PC.

    I want to upgrade to Mavericks. Will I need to reinstall all of my apps and copy my files back to the hard drive?  I have not installed an OS on a Mac before and I'm wondering whether it is as involved as on a PC.

    Short answer: You do NOT have to reinstall all your apps and copy your files back.
    Longer answer: Upgrading the OS does not touch any user files. Upgrading the OS should not interfere with any applications which are compatible with Mavericks.  In my experience non-Apple apps are generally left unchanged by the upgrade.  It is possible that some apps may need to be upgraded. One good resource for checking application compatibility is RoaringApps.
    Finally, it is always wise to backup everything, just in case.

    Firefox sees that (at least local or network dive located) .bat files are text and renders them as such. To download it as a .bat file, use save page as, (or Control-S) change "text file" to "all files" and type .bat onto the end of the filename, then hit save. Not ideal I know, but better than nothing.

  • How do I migrate files created in a Windows OS to a new external drive that is formatted as a MAC drive. I want to read and write these files back to the new drive.

    If all you're trying to do is move the files from the Windows external to the Mac external, you can simply connect them both to the Mac and drag the files from the Windows drive to the Mac drive. If you want to move the files back and forth between them, you'll need to establish the format of the Windows external. Macs can read and write to FAT32 and exFAT (which can handle files larger than 4GB) formatted drives but can only read NTFS formatted drives without additional software. With the Windows drive connected, you can check its format with Disk Utility.

  • Mac creates a save every hour, quickly filling the external drive. The "delete unnecessary files in Trash" does not work.

    How to make the Mac do save at certain intervals?
    Why would I want five saves the day?
    I try to delete unnecessary files to free up space.
    Trash on the Mac has become very slow, the removal process was take hours.
    Then the process of removing all stops.
    Why files are not removed through the trash?
    What could be causing the removal process?

    TimeMachine is designed to back up every hour. It saves only the files that have changed during the hour. After 24 hours TimeMachine culls the (up to) 24 backups to make a single backup for the day. After 30 days it takes the 7 oldest day backups and culls them into a single week backup.
    You should never manually touch files in the TimeMachine backup. It doesn't like that. The best practice for TimeMachine is to devote an external drive to TimeMachine and nothing else. Because TM backups are incremental, it is recommended that your TM hard drive be 2-4 times larger than the amount of drive space your computer is using. In other words, if your 1TB hard drive is 1/4 full (250GB in use) you should have a TM drive between 500GB and 1TB depending on how much more data you expect to add to your drive and how long you wish to keep old back files.
    Having said all this, you might prefer using some other program for backups. CarbonCopyCloner and ChronoSync are two programs you might want to look at.

  • Help Cannot Save As File

    I'm a brand new InDesign user.  Have had one class and am expected to do all types of collateral here at work.  I've opened files, started designing but when I click Save As, the whole thing freezes up.  The only way out is to cancel through the task manager.  I have InDesign CS3 running on Microsoft XP.  The same thing happens if I try Save As in Photoshop.  I am not going to be very effective if I cannot save my work.  I am in marketing and not a techie.  So if any one could help me without having to know a tremendous amount about program set up it would be greatly appreciated.

  • Unable To See Network Drive from outside Home Network..even when using DynDNS

    Hi
    I have just got a Freecom Media storage Network Center which I have attached to my WRT150N router.
    I am attemting to permit access to authorised users to files on the drive via the internet (presumably via ftp).
    Here is what I have done:
    Swiitched on DynDNS on the web admin page in the router (used DynDNS.com free service.
    Obtained a user addess which is middle-earth.dyndns-home.com from DynDNS, which is linked to my Virgin Media IP
    Switched on Port Range forwarding with
    Ports 20-21 as ftp
    Port 80 as http
    Port 57 as DNS
    Selected "both protocols"
    Set the IP address to route to 192.168.1.42 - (this is the IP address which the web based software for the Network Drive reports as.
    However the configuration of the TCP/IP protocol in PC attached by LAN cable to the router is "Obtain an IP address automatically" (i.e. dynamic?).  If I change these settings and specify static IP addresses   will I not muck up internet connection to Virgin Media.
    what I was hoping to acheive was typing     ftp:// middle-earth.dyndns-home.com
    in the address bar would let me see the network drive from anywhere!
    I have tried using DNS pinging on Ports 20, and 21 but that tells my ports are closed.  i have also tried switching off my software firewall (Kaspersky) and the router firewall, but this does nothing.
    What have I done wrong or no done!!
    Thanks                                                                                              

    I think the problem is solved.
    The Freecom device needs to use a different part of its interface to be assigned a static IP address, which I have now done.  At my last try it was visible from two independent views outside of my network.
    On another front, I am appalled at Linksys or Cisco, who are not prepared to advice on getting more from their produicts if they are 'out of warranty'.  The online chat tech said I could ring an 0871 premium line number in the UK.  When I rang that, I was told as tthat as my unit is not faulty and was out of warranty I would have to use their pay per incident  service.
    That is not a way to deal with customers.  When it comes to upgrading or replacing network equipment, I will look to a provider who is interested in their customers. 

  • UTL_FILE - Write to a file on a mapped network drive

    Can someone tell me how to get the UTL_FILE package to write a file to a network drive
    on a Windows NT server?
    Your help will be greatly appreciated!

    Did you restart the database after changing the init.ora parameter? Make sure that you have this new value in v$parameter view.

  • Cannot save Numbers files to our Mac OS X Server (10.6.8) due to permissions problems.

    This is not a univeral problem, only a few people see it, and sometimes only with certain locations of our server. They cannot save Numbers file to the server but they can save it to their desktop and then drag the file to the file server. I have reset permissions for the locations in question to no avail. Any suggestions?In the latest case the iMac is running 10.6.8 and Numbers 2.3.

    Paul,
    This is a long-standing problem with no resolution that I am aware of except to not save iWork documents directly to a server.

  • I keep getting error message (cannot save as "file name" because of a program error)

    I opened a pdf in photoshop and when I need to save it back as a pdf i get this error (cannot save as "file name" because of a program error). I need to save it specifically as PDF/X-1a:2001 but the only pdf options that will work are "highest quality print" and "smallest file size". None of the others work. I'm running Photoshop CS5 on a PC laptop and I tried it on my desktop and also a mac running CS 5.5 and always get the same error. I think the problem might be with the custom color settings I have but it works fine on my work computer with the same color settings. What could be going on?

    Yes, it's probably related to your color settings in some way. Why you are doing it in the first place...? Since they are ISO standards there is simply no liberty in choosing arbitrary settings for PDF/X, especially the archicval flavors... So in conclusion you will have to make your color settings compliant. The crash itself is probably a bug in the PDF libraries and it may work at your office because there you may use a different version of Acrobat/ Adobe Reader and the associated PDF libraries which do not have this bug. Still, the initial issue remains: You need to work within the spec, not against it.

  • "You don't have permission to save in this location." Cannot save any files anywhere. All permissions open, all other browsers save OK in same place. Why?

    I cannot save any files anywhere. I always get the message "You don't have permission to save in this location. Contact the administrator to obtain permission. Would you like to save in the {} folder instead?"
    I have created a clean profile in Profile Manager, and used the Reset Firefox tool. The only way I can save files is to use another browser. IE and Chrome have no problems saving files to the exact same folders.
    This seemed to have started with the last update on 10/5/2013.

    Maybe something changed in the program shortcut you use to start Firefox. Can you check right-click > Properties > Compatbility tab and make sure nothing is selected there?
    ''I've never tried this myself, but the forum has a standard set of steps for a "clean reinstall" of Firefox to replace damaged program files. During this process, you are not removing personal settings, but you are removing some shared add-on folders, which would affect Windows Media Player and perhaps other plugins/extensions installed that way.''
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete (or if you're nervous, move or rename) the Firefox program folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox (32-bit)
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox (64-bit)
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Does that help?

  • Cannot Save Word files as a PDF in Office 2013 with Office customization tool

    Hello
    I'm deploying office 2013 as a part of a post clone task.  Using the customization tool I created an msp with the full installation (without outlook,Link, or skydrive) I noticed that I cannot save or export files as PDF files.  If I do a manual
    install (without MSP) I can save files as pdf.  I can't find anywhere in the customization tool that allows me to choose different "save as" file types. In office 2010 I used to be able to save word files as PDF files.  Any ideas would
    be greatly appreciated.
    Charles

    Hi,
    In regarding the issue, could you give me more information? Did you test to install the Office 2013 by using MSP and manual installation in the same computer? Did the other Office suits can not save files as pdf?
    Let's do some test to narrow down the issue:
    If you use the only one computer to test, please export a new MSP file include all the suits and use the all the default setting. Then we follow the
    link to deploy again.
    If the issue still exists, please try to change a computer, and update Adobe programs to install the new MSP file to test.
    If you get some error message when you save as pdf through Word, please upload, I'll do more deeply research.
    Regards,

    Hello i am using TimeMachine to back-up entire Mac image (data + system) on an usb-local drive. I would like (on top of it) add a specific plan to back up some files on a remote network drive. Does TimeMachine support multiple back-up plans ? How ?

    Time Machine is capable of backing up to multiple locations, and can be used to back up to both a local hard drive and a networked drive (provided that that drive is in or connected to a Time Capsule or another Mac that is sharing it over the network). The catch, though, is that you can't specify different things to back up to different destinations. Whatever you exclude from Time Machine backups is excluded from ALL backups, and whatever is included is included on all.
    So, get a large enough drive that you can back up everything you want in all locations, or use something else for maintaining the network backup.
    More information on these topics can be found here:
    How do I set up Time Machine to a shared drive on another Mac?
    How do I set up Time Machine to a Time Capsule or Airport Extreme?
