When i drag an image from Firefox to my desktop, i get a jpeg extension. I want/need a jpg extension.

there aren't many details - just that dragging an image (jpg) from Firefox to desktop always ends up xxx.jpeg. i have to have "jpg" to be able to do much of anything with it. its been going on the last few upgrades and i've simply changed the file extension but really tired of having to do that and it seems like i should be able to find information for fixing it.
thanks.

You should only have to rename the .jpeg file extension to .jpg to get this working. 
Did you try that?
You can try to delete the mimeTypes.rdf file in the Firefox Profile Folder to reset all file actions.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/mimeTypes.rdf
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions#Resetting_download_actions
You can Inspect the MIME database with the registry editor (regedit.exe) and do a search for that MIME type (file extension) via Ctrl+F. 
Be careful with editing the registry as there is NO UNDO possible: all changes are applied immediately. 
You can export key(s) in the registry editor before making changes. 
You can check specific file extension keys (e.g. .jpg) in the registry with the registry editor.
* HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xxx
You can check the linked MIME type in the MIME Database or do a search there as well.
* HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type

You're in the wrong forum. Post to iPhoto for iLife, not iPhoto for iOS.

Why is it that when I put my movie from iMovie on the desktop it gets shaky?

I made a movie on iMovie that is clear and not shaky. However, when I try to download the movie to the desktop, the whole movie is shaky. It is shaky when downloading with QuickTime and when I try to "Export Movie." I use iMovie '09, version 8.0.6. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can prevent it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I am having the same problem. Were you able to find a fix?

Hello, does anyone know why when i drag and drop from the internet,why my images never show up?

hello, does anyone know why when i drag and drop from the internet,why my images never show up?

I'm wanting to drag images from the internet into a folder on my desktop or hard drive. I am used to being able to drag just about any image from any website off the web and into a folder on my old mac, but since I got my laptop, I've noticed I cannot do that. Is it a preference?

I am trying to organize a zip file with a bunch of links and files. But when I drag an image file to a folder, it always "Snaps to grid" instead of just landing where I put it.

I am trying to organize a zip file with a bunch of links and files. But when I drag an image file to a folder, it always "Snaps to grid" instead of just landing where I put it. All of the files are going into the same zip file but I want them visually in the space that I put them and not at the bottom of the snap to grid folder location they are looking like. I am trying to drag and drop files in groups so that I can group them for now, but image files always do their own "sort by" when I drag them from my web pages. Links don't do it though. I tried resetting the folder, and deleting the DS files. No luck.

How can I drag an image from a page in Safari to the finder and have it be saved as an *actual* image instead of a webloc?

Safari used to let me drag an image from a webpage to the finder and have the dragged file be saved as an actual image but now all that's saved is a webloc file. I want the image saved, not a reference to the image's URL - do I now have to always use "save as" to save it?
I can understand Safari creating a webloc file if I dragged the site icon from the location bar to the finder, but to make the default behavior for dragging things that are parts of a page (not the page itself) as webloc files seems like a HUGE step backwards for usability.
Does anyone know if there's, say, a key to hold when dragging to avoid saving a webloc file or a defaults command or something to make Safari revert back to sane draging behavior?

Good questions... I'll have to try and figure out when the problem first happened - I was thinking it was when I upgraded to Safari 5.1.4 but that might not be the case... I'll try your suggestions to see if any of them eliminate the problem (I have restarted recenlty and that didn't fix it) but I'll try repairing permissions,etc. Thanks!
hmmm... Mcbuffy: are you implying that you *don't* get the webloc when dragging an image out of Safari and that this isn't a caused by change to Safari but is a big/conflict in mine?

When I drag an image into IBA, it rotates 90 degrees.

I'm having trouble dragging a particular image into iBooks Author. I took a picture and imported from my camera to iPhoto. The image had to be rotated 90 degrees, which I did in iPhoto. I'm using the "Contemporary" template in iBooks Author and I'm trying to drag my image from iPhoto to replace the red, space themed image at the top of a section page. When I do so, the image reverts to its original instead of the rotated form. I can't figure out how to rotate the image without rotating the mask.

Hello Abram1,
Not sure of the reasons but I would imaging it might have to do with iPhoto and its non destruction approach to editing.
Have you tried exporting the image out as a new image that would then have the new rotation that you wish applied to it.
I hope this helps,
Regards,
Nigel

How can I get my ES2 loops to play correctly? I keep getting the message that the audio is not found when I drag the loops from my audio browser even though they play fine in the preview.

How can I get my ES2 loops to play correctly? I keep getting the message that the audio is not found when I drag the loops from my audio browser even though they play fine in the preview.

It's exactly as I stated. Whenever I try to drag these kinds of loops (ESX24 / software instrument loops? the ones marked in green with the white music note next to them) from the loop browser into the timeline a message comes up saying Audio Not Found for that loop. And a new track is created automatically when loops are dragged into the timeline, so I'm not creating some other random / synth instrument track so I'm not sure what the deal is... But perhaps I'll try creating a software instrument track first and then drag the loop into that track and see what happens - maybe there's something with the default settings that automatically creates audio tracks whenever loops are imported?

How to change the path of sysprep files that were copied to reference computer when i capture the image from reference.

Dears ,,
how to change the path that sysprep were copied to reference computer when i capture the image from reference.
Should i modify some codes in LTIAPPLY.wsf? how to modify it?
Thanks.

Sysprep and capture has *Three* steps.
1. Run sysprep on the local machine (easy).
2. Copy WinPE down to the local machine so we can reboot into winpe for capture.
3. Capture the drive in an *offline* state from within WinPE.
What is most likely happening is that you are having problems with step #2. 100MB is *WAY* too small to copy down WinPE. By default MDT will make this System partition much bigger, 499MB. IF you install Windows 7 from the default media. IT will only create
a 100MB partition.
By default MDT 2012 Update 1 and greater *should* recover to a fallback drive with the OS on it, however if you are running older versions that might not happen correctly.
If you are still having problems, copy your BDD.log file to a public share like OneDrive and copy the link here.

Dragging an images from Safari to the mail Icon doesn't embed image

Hi all - I was wondering if there was a way to change the following default functionality:
If I drag an image to the Mail icon in the dock, it will open an email with the address of the image as text.
What i want is for the image to be embedded in the email.
I can go to Mail, open a new mail, then go back to safari and drag the image and it works fine, but I'd just rather have that happen when I drag the image to the Mail icon.
Any suggestions?

Thank you for the reply but this doesn't seem to work for me...

Run time error when trying to import bookmarks from firefox

When trying to import bookmarks from Firefox to Safari I get the following error message: "Run Time Error. This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way." Safari does not function anymore and I have to close it. Can somebody help me? I am using a PC with Windows 7.

In the Bookmarks Manager (Library) there is a toolbar with the Back and Forward button and three other buttons (Organize, Views, Import & Backup).
* The first (gear) button is the Organize button with basic edit menu items for bookmarks
* The second button is the Views button that allows to change the sort order for viewing purposes (doesn't sort permanently).
* The third (star) button is the Import & Backup button that allows to backup and restore a JSON backup and import and export an HTML backup and import bookmarks from other browsers.
Hover each button to see the tooltip or click each of them to see what they do.
