When attempting to "save as" a word document and selecting micrsoft word as the "save as type", it no longer will save it in a word icon document, the icon is just a blank document symbol and thus cannot email this document as before.

Here are my two cents.
The resources defining the file formats which Pages may import or export are stored in the file :
Macintosh HD:Applications:iWork '09:Pages.app:Contents:Info.plist
Assuming that you didn't installed the Developer tools, go to my iDisk (address below)
Download :
Pref Setter.app.zip
Unpack the archive.
Open the file "Info.plist" with Pref Setter.
Open the entry entitled : CFBundleDocumentsTypes
Open the items 9, 10, 11, 12
The normal contents is :
Double check the parameters available for items 9 & 10.
What you get may be linked to some oddity in these resources.

When attempting to save a numbers doc, get message, " Couldn't auto-save document."

When attempting to save a Numbers checklist document, I get the message "Couldn't auto-save document." What does this mean and why can't I save it to my hard drive?

I have exactly the same problem. It seems like a very rare problem though because there is so little written about it, and it is a real show stopper!!
I also had the additional problem that I could not export anything as PDF.
Your workaround did not work for me, but a different one did. I simply clicked on the red "close" button on the top left of the window, and the usual dialog box asked me if I wanted to save. I said yes, and it saved! I can even export the PDF now.
Extremely bizarre, and I must say not a solution I would rely on in a long term basis.

I am getting an error when attempting to save or export a PDF to Word

When attempting to save as OR export a PDF document to Word, I am getting the following error: Bad PDF, error in processing fonts. <cannot find CMap resource file>. Does anyone know how to fix this? I also attached an image of the error pop up.

There are some preflight scripts to fix errors in a PDF. You might try those, particularly for fonts. An alternative is to refry the PDF by printing to a new PDF and then trying to save that to WORD.

Most programs crash when attempting to save

Hello. I'm hoping someone can solve this very annoying issue.
When attempting to save files while in programs such as Safari, TextEdit, Script Editor, and even 3rd party apps such as ReallySimpleText.app, the program hangs for a short time then crashes. Word and FireFox seem to be okay, however.
Does anyone have any ideas? This issue is quite debilitating.
Console.app only shows the generation of the CrashReport as well as a statement that the program exited abnormally:illegal instruction.

Any ideas? Here is a copy of a portion of the crash report that looked important.

Error when attempting to Save as... in CS5

Hello,
Occasionally when attempting to Save as... in CS5 it will give me an error saying that the file doesn't exist and to verify the filepath and try again. We are attempting to save to an external hard drive which is close to full but not completely. But, if I restart my machine the issue seems to go away for awhile. Is this a problem with PS or is it just because the hard drive is full or something else entirely? Seems like a strange error, has anyone else experienced this?

A local hard drive or across network?
The missing disk space may be an issue as Photoshop may need "double" the file’s size when saving (a safe save, the original file is removed after the new file has been saved, which is intended to make sure the file is not damaged if a crash occurs during saving).

I am using I Photo 4.0.3. When I start it, loading pictures never ends and I cannot use I Photo; What can I do?

When did this begin? Did you run any updaters just before this began and, if so, what were they?
That's a very old iPhoto version so give this a try:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down.
2 - select Options #3 and #4.
4 - Rebuild the library.
If that fails to help continue with this:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button,
navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Running a mid 2009 iMac on 10.7.5, 3 gb memory, 320 gb hd.
Suddenly the computer stoped reading DVDs and the only time I can read a CD is if I restart. Quite often when I insert a CD it gets stuck and I cannot get it out until I restart and it shows up on the desktop where I can then eject it.
I have checked and double checked the finder prefs and all looks normal showing a check mark on CDs,DVDs etc. (the ones I want to show up on the desktop)
I have reset the PEAM, repaired permissions with both the disk utility on the computer and the disk utility when I start up in the Recovery Disk. I did notice that sometimes the permission repeat the same correction several times before it moves on, and sometimes it doesn’t. I have Windows installed on a partition but I keep it unmounted until it is needed for my wife’s work. The dock seems to be just fine and all the apps seems to run just fine. When I insert a photo CD iPhoto does not open but when I insert a music CD iTunes does open.
Also, most every time I open iPhoto it takes a long time(sometimes as long as 2 minutes) for it to load.
Sometimes my Mail (Mail 5.3) does not post new mail but most of the time it does.
Once and a while it seems like the computer slows way down but then it seems ok ten minutes later.
All of these ‘things’ seemed to have happen suddenly and I have not downloaded anything from the internet in some time.
Of course the warranty and extended warranty are both no longer in effect having had this computer for more than three years.
I am running Java and Adobe Player because some of the sites I go to a lot require both.

I believe that insufficient RAM may be the source of some of your problems. If you have a RAM of somewhere 4 to 8GB, you will experience smoother computing. 3GB doesn't seem right, so you might want to learn more by going to this site:

I don't know what know what's happening with your optical drive, but it seems you use your drive quite a bit. In that case, look into a lens cleaner for your machine. It's inexpensive, works quite well.
I hope you'll post here with your results!

I connect my macbook pro to an Epson wireless projector. The macbook can see the projector wirelessly and the image on the macbook is displayed on the projector. However on system ref., the arrangement tab does not show and thus cannot have multiple view.
I am trying to project Pro Presenter on the Epson projector such that I have the detail screen on the macbook and only the screen I want people to see on the projector display. This has not been possible because the arrangement tab on the Display section of the System Preference is not showing. If i tried to search for the arangement, it comes back with the message that there is not other source detected, hence the arrangement tab is not showing.
I have also tried to connect the Epson directly to the Macbook but it still the same result, so its not because it is a wireless connection. Can someone advise me jhow to go around this problem. I have used windows before and it is very easy to extend ptojection on windows, but this system seems to be frustrating to me.
Thanks,
Toks

Hi lorrelaws,
Do you receive that error when you try to sign in via Reader? If so, try signing in via the web interface. Did that do the trick?
Let us know how it goes.

Thanks for the pointers folks. Yeah, 1.5GB is pretty poor isn't it? There are other suppliers, but you have to get a their phone line installed to access the internet so it's an £85 setup fee plus a day off work for a guy to come round and drill a hole in your wall before you even get to the monthly costs.
Don't get me wrong though - I'm certainly not an Apple basher, but am equally frustrated with both them and the ISP.
Virgin Media spend all kinds of money advertising their broadband as the fastest in the UK, but don't tell you (up front anyway) that you'll be cut off if you actually try and use it.
Apple on the other hand carry on with their 'it just works' mantra, but with Apple TV this only applies if you meet certain criteria (again, not mentioned up front).
I guess it aint a biggie, as i was gifted my Apple TV, and love all the other stuff it does, but from the number of posts on this forum can see that there's a lot of angry customers out there who want explanations as to why they're having similar problems to me.
Will be very interesting to see if Apple release any kind of software update that turns the flash drive from a buffer to permanent storage, to at least ease some of the pain...

I did a search on my system and found the Photoshop has a fastcore plug-in. Creative Cloud includes a subscription version of CS6 version 13.1.2. I do not know if you installed that or not. The cc un-install may have done something. You may need to use Adobe Cleaner then Install The Perpetual CS6 version of Photoshop CS6 version 13.0.6 Mac or Photoshop CS6 version 13.0.1.3 PC and not the subscription CS6 extended version 13.1.2. Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 If you need to download the CS6 installer Download CS6 products.
You may also be able to recover your cs6 using an old system backup

going to "transfer purchases' does work - however the thermometer bar at the bottom reflecting apps, music, video, book, etc cpapcity fraks out, sliding left to right maybe 4 or 5 times during the process. Have you ever seen this?
After it is finished, the SYNC button is not longer darkened - so I thought it was safe to attampt an upgrade to OS05... which i am doing now... takes maybe 20 mins and then I normally get the error "the applications on this ipad cannot be verified" and the bottom thermometer bar zeros out all by my music. The content and apps are all fine on teh ipad. so strange. I made an appointment with customer service tomrrow AM - but i do not think i should have to pay for this - i have never even used support before!
I will update if it works - or re[eats the strange pattern again and does not update.
Thanks for your time and help!
