What does Shift + Tilde do on a Save dialog?

Can anybody tell me what Shift + Tilde does on a Save Dialog in OSX 10.10.3? I do mean Shift + Tilde and not Cmd + Shift + Tilde, I know what Cmd + Shift + Tilde does?

Thanks for the reply.
There is of course another question, the Save dialog I am referring to is supposed to point by default to a path within the Library of my user id, it doesn't; instead I can see it jumping from that folder to my home folder before I have control of the dialog. If I then use Shift + Tilde and type the path within the Library, the Save dialog saves the file where is supposed to.
Why is this happening? Why the extra unnecessary step?

Load error 17: what does it mean, and can I save my VI?

I can't load a VI anymore after LabVIEW crashed on me. It just gives me the following error message:
"Resource not found.
An error occured loading VI 'xx.vi'.
LabVIEW load error code 17: Could not load VI's link information."
Is there any way to salvage this apparently damaged VI, or do I have to rewrite all the code?
Regards,
KJB

Thanks for your answer,
None of the obvious things work, including mass-compile and what you suggest. What I was after was if NI has some tool that can try to repair broken VIs, but that apparently isn't the case.

When I try to save a doc to my server I sometimes get this: The document could not be saved. There was a Macintosh system error (-5000). What does it mean?

What kind of file are you saving, and what sort of clientserver setup do you have?
If you're using MS Office, it doesn't play nice with OS X Server, particularly with network homes.

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know some details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
what fixes have you tried?
where is you library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

What does "save" do in MS Office 11 for the mac?

I'm not sure this is the right forum to ask this in, but here goes:
Using MS Office 11 for the mac, if I view mail in my inbox, and click "Save" in the file menu, what does this do? Where is the file saved? "Save As" is grayed out, so this doesn't work. "Save" is NOT grayed out, so I assume it does something, but what?
thanks!

You're right. Post on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac software:

What does it mean "Do you want to save your current game on a new Game Center account?"

My daughter and I have been playing Hay Day. She on the iPad with her own Game Center Account. I on my iPhone, with my Game Center account. Tonight I noticed that I can log her out and log in as me, so I can play on the big screen. As soon as my wife saw this, she wanted to play too. So... she created a Game Center account, logged me out, and logged into Game Center as her. When we go the game, this message appears:
"Do you want to save your current game on a new Game Center account?"
What does this mean?
What should we choose to ensure she starts a new Hay Day game, not start where I was. We did not get this message when we switched back and forth between my daughter an I.
Thanks,
Matt

Thanks Larry. I ended up at the genius bar at the local Apple store. My home button had died which is why the phone was constantly going to Voice Control. The phone was replaced. Thanks for answering. I checked out the link and ordinarily that would have done the trick.

Af:query what does Save Results Layout do

Hi,
af:query allows you to create a new saved search by opening a new popup "Create Saved Search"
Which contains
InputText for Name :
checkbox for Set As Default
checkbox for Run Automatically
checkbox for Save Results Layout
what does the Save Results Layout actually do ? I do not see any visual difference with that flag on/off
thank you all in advance,

Simplyadf,
(I'm guessing) - when you re-order the columns in the results table - that checkbox would save the re-ordering.
You may know: in the current release, saved searches only persist for the session - you need MDS (which is supposed to be in the next release) to permanently persist them.

When trying to save a document , it says syntax error-what does that mean and how do I fix it?

when trying to save a document that I typed, it says syntax error..what does that mean and how do I fix it so I can save my documents?

Applescript is like HTML, Actionscript, or Javascript.
SYNTAX is EVERYTHING.
Unlike HTML, Dreamweaver will pop a syntax error when trying to save a javascript that is unworkable because of a Syntax Error. Flash will do the same with a bad Actionscript.
AppleScript Editor is the same way as Dreamweaver or Flash.
The reason is:
Bad HTML - a browser simply won't load the page or it'll load it with missing or no content. Not all that bad.
Bad Javascript - your browser can lock up and if the script is complex enough, it can lock up your entire system.
Bad Actionscript - just like bad javascript, it can potentially lock your entire system.
Bad Applescript - can lock up your entire system.
With Windows, viruses are often improperly read as SYNTAX errors in Actionscript or Javascript. That's not a worry with an AppleScript, but the possibility of locking up your system is worth a warning.
You need to double check your syntax to be sure you haven't got something missing or improperly written.

Open/Save Dialog does not show new files?

Say you are working on a logic file in a folder and you have
a few audio and movie files in that folder, and you launch
Logic and via the open/save dialog window you add a few
files to your song and in that dialog window you can see
all the files in that folder.
Then, in the Finder you add a few more files and movies to
that folder and again use the open/save dialog window to
add more files BUT the new files you added since launching
logic are NOT SHOWN in the dialog window ! ?
What's the deal with that?
Every other app can show files added since the launch of the
application, why not Logic?
PowerBook G4 1GHz Mac OS X (10.3.9)

project manager
um, yeah.
Should not need the project manager simply to see new files added to a directory in a Open/Save dialog window since last opening the app.
I did a scan, a extended scan, opened all the little turn down arrows of the
full path to the directory I knew there to be the new files and yes, Logic
shows them there in the "Project manager".
BUT Logic still does not show the files in the Open/Save dialog windows.
This is strange because even simple app like TextEdit can show
new files in it's Open/Save dialog function windows without the need of
a project manager.
I have to quit and re-launch each time to see any new files?

What does firefox.exe-application error mean? Firefox wont even open it just says this, and then click okay to terminate the problem.

When I go to open up Firefox, it does not open no matter what I try It just pops up this box that says Firefox.exe - application error.
Then it says the Instruction at "0x798377a9" referenced memory at "0x798377a9". The memory could not be "written".
Click on OK to termintate the program
What does this mean? And why cant I use Firefox. I can still use internet explorer just fine.
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; InfoPath.1)

Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

How can i control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?

Sup buddies,
How can I control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?
As the project grows in size the load time increases. How does one control not loading all images ,divs,elements etc. until they're
needed on the timeline? For example some sections are off and only become visible when recalled. My projects slowly grow in size so loading
all images , is counter productive . My other option would be to create separate htmls but that breaks the seamless user experience .
TY...Over N Out...

hello, kiwi
quote: "Is there an easy way to burn a completed project to DVD, but keep only the (lo res, lo size) previews on my hard drive?"
yes.
maybe,...
1. you might think of making DVD backups first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
or,
2. bring in the photographs to hard drive first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
the low rez Previews will stay in Aperture but the high quality Versions will be exported onto DVDs and gone from the hard drive (if you delete the originals).
another way would be to export small about 50-70 pixel wide high quality jpegs to a folder on your Desktop and import & keep these in Aperture Library as a reference. make metadata to show where the original Project DVDs are stored and DVD filing system used.

HT201250 What does it mean to "partition" an external hard drive? Is it something that I want to do?

What does it mean to "partition" the external hard drive? Is it something I want to do? How do I save files from another hard drive to the new one? I have to reformat the old one as it was not set up correctly. The drive I have is Seagate but not specifically for MAC, so I have to format it.. never have done this before. Don't know the jargon. I read that Time Machine will back up automatically but I want to take files from the old drive to the new one. Do I have to take them to the computer first and then to the new drive? I need more memory on my computer. It's way too cluttered and congested. HELP!

Whoa! Slow donw. TRhere's a lot here. I would suggest you buy a good book on computers in general or macs in particular, one is "OSX the missing manual".
What does it mean to "partition" the external hard drive?
It means you take one large drive and make it into more than one volume. This means that it might show up as 2,3 or 4 inde[pendenmt drives. Each one could have, for example, a different operating system on it. Its a good thing to do if you want to use a drive for several purposes
Is it something I want to do?
beats me, you didnt way what you're trying to accomplish. Sorta like sking "should i turn left?" Depends on where you want to go.
How do I save files from another hard drive to the new one?
See advice n book above. Copy them in finder. Copy them in unix. Use a backup or sync utility. No different from Windows in that respect.
I have to reformat the old one as it was not set up correctly. The drive I have is Seagate but not specifically for MAC, so I have to format it.. never have done this before. Don't know the jargon.
Hook it up. Run disk utility. Partition 1 or more partions. GUID map. Format each partition Mac OS extended, Journaled. for more, read book, above. Seriously - we could give you more tips, but you really should learn enough to be comnfident.
I read that Time Machine will back up automatically but I want to take files from the old drive to the new one. Do I have to take them to the computer first and then to the new drive?
I have no idea what you are asking.
I need more memory on my computer. It's way too cluttered and congested. HELP!
What kind of memory and why? RTAM? Hard drive space? Explain. By the time you are done explaining, i suspect you will have ansered your own question.
Good luck,
Have you read the PDF manual for your cmputer?
Have you used a search engine to look for info, for example, in two seconds i got this from google and wikipedia:
