When trying to save attachments in emails, 'save button' no longer working

Anyone else having this problem? Used to be that when I clicked on the "Save" button in my email windows, an icon would flash in my dock indicating my attachment had been saved to the desktop. Now when I click on the same buttons, nothing happens at all. Any ideas?

I don't recall seeing anything to indicate a Save has taken place, in Leopard at least. Have you looked in the Mail Downloads folder to see if they might actually have been saved? In Leopard and Mail 3.x, a quick click on the Save button would be expected to simply save all attachments on the message to the Mail Downloads folder. A click and brief hold will bring up a contextual menu with choices allowing you to Save All or select certain files, and will enable targeting other folders.
The Mail Downloads folder, btw, is found at Home/Library/Mail Downloads.

When using Firefox as my browser, my "back" button no longer works? And by the way...getting help is a real pain in the butt on this site!!!!!

see -- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Kill_application
which explains how to completely exit (quit) your Mozilla application
Try closing Firefox completely
*Close Firefox properly '''File > Exit''', not with the "X" which just closes the window.
*Use the Windows Task Manager "Processes" tab to make sure that firefox.exe is not running and also that the plugin-container.exe is not running.
If that does not work, try restarting the system.
If still no luck try restoring bookmarks from last backup, or better create your own .json backup and restore from that.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox#Creating_bookmark_backups
*''If you had to go this far, please provide feedback if restoring bookmarks alone fixed the problem. I think I may have done that once with success, but never see that suggested -- I'd try most anything to not lose history or bookmarks. But then I could restore files from my profile and restore latest bookmarks backup from current profile.''
The following will result in complete loss of history if it comes down to deleting places.sqlite, so rename files rather than deleting. With Firefox down.
Of course you have backups of your profile you could replace rename and
replace those files instead.

I'm using OS 10.6.8 and Mail 4.5. When I receive mails with attachments which are visible the save button doesn't work. Some contacts have problems opening files sent by me using Mail too. This was never a problem on pre-Intel. A real Mac **** up !

I'm using OS 10.6.8 and Mail 4.5. When I receive mails with attachments which are visible the save button doesn't work. And some contacts occasionally have problems opening files sent by me using Mail too. This was never a problem on pre-Intel Mac. A real Mac **** up ! Any ideas ?

Can you drag and drop the attachments visible in the email to the Desktop OK or does that fail ?
Re the sending: Are these recipients on Mac's or PC's as the file type could be an issue, if on Mac's then try setting the Mail Preferences Composing setting to Plain Text not Rich Text and see if that improves things.

Installing the latest update on my iPad - error message saying the iPad couldn't synchronize because of an internal error, and then - error message (OxE8004017) when trying to save, and then (2003) when trying to restore - nothing works anymore

Installing the latest update on my iPad - error message saying the iPad couldn't synchronize because of an internal error, and then - error message (OxE8004017) when trying to save, and then (2003) when trying to restore - nothing works anymore - On my iPad the only thing I see is a connector cord to iTunes and nothing else.
What can I do ???

Same issue for me, recently I started having issues with apps no longer being able to access my Facebook account. But the iPad Facebook account settings will not accept my password, even though the Facebook app and Safari can access my account fine. The only significant events I recall that have occurred that may have triggered this have been that via my Facebook account I killed off a lot of so called authorised connections and I changed my user name, but still have the same email address and password.
I have tried just about every solution put forward on the net, short of a factory restore, back to new, on my iPad.
I have also; deleted my iCloud account, deleted the Facebook app and account, deleted Safari data.
One would think that after I have deleted my account from the iPad that it would ask for both username/email address and password, but it only asks for password, so the username is still stored somewhere that I am unable to delete.
I also see that no one seems to have been able to get an answer from Apple. So I'm guessing they have absolutely no idea themselves.
I am hesitant to put my username on Facebook back to what it was as Facebook only give you a few chances to change your username, then you are locked.
I have iOS 7.1.1 installed.
I did have a lot of respect for Apple and their devices as they just worked, but they are becoming tarnished by ignoring what seems to be a growing issue.

All non-apple apps unexpectedly quit when trying to save

All (non apple) applictions, i.e. photoshop, illustrator, maya unexpectedly quit when trying to save, import or anything else that requires a dialogue box.
I have had this problem with individual apps, and I usually go in and delete the prefpane folder and that fixes it, but this is multiple apps and nothing is working. Help

Error "Unowned UID refrenced. UID: U3020 Class: ImageItem" when trying to save converted Muse CC site in Muse 2014

Error "Unowned UID refrenced. UID: U3020 Class: ImageItem" when trying to save converted Muse CC site in Muse 2014
It works fine in my CC version. But will not let me save my old site. All I do is open and it says converted and forces a save which it will not do no matter what and I have tried everything

Yes. Sorry for the slow response. I've been on vacation.
Could you please send us the .muse file at [email protected] along with a link to this thread? If the file is larger than 20Mb you can use a service like Adobe SendNow, Dropbox, WeTransfer, etc. If you've already sent it, my apologies, I'm still catching up on e-mail.
Any chance you have a way to contact the author/seller of the template? So far our attempts to reach the author via ThemeForest have gone unanswered. Thanks.

I get the Save As dialog when trying to Save, whether using Command-S or File menu

When trying to Save a document, I am presented with the Save As dialog. The file name has a serial number added to the old file name and the default destination is the Documents file. This happens whether I have tried to save using Command-S or using the Save option in the File menu. This started after I upgraded to Mavericks.

I checked and the files are not stationery pads, Permissions show me as having read and write authority.
But, when I opened the files from the finder, the problem disappears and they saved normally. I then removed the files from the Dock and re-placed them in the Dock via drag and drop. The problem re-appears and changes will not save normally. Not being able to use the Dock is inconvenient but at least there is a workaround. Thanks for your help! Before declaring victory, I'd like to watch it for a while for other quirks.

Firefox stops responding when trying to "save page" or "save image"

Windows 7 64 bit and Firefox 28. When trying to 'Save Page' or 'Save Image' the save dialogue window is nearly blank, then info bar shows 'not responding'. I have tried all the tips in the support pages. Resetting Firefox, Starting Firefox in 'Safe Mode'. Upgrading graphics driver to latest version. Turning off 'Hardware Acceleration' in options. Nothing resolves the problem. This issue has only recently started, the last time I tried saving an image it worked fine, certainly prior to Microsoft's most recent 'upgrade Tuesday'.
Edit:
Checked the save dates of the last images I successfully saved from within Firefox and compared them to my windows update log. The Microsoft March 'Update Tuesday' was installed on March 14th. My last successfully saved Firefox images were saved the following day on March 15th. Thus it is unlikely that the Firefox saving issue is a result of a Windows Update corruption. So the question is what changes have Mozilla made to Firefox between 15th and 24th March 2014 ???

I understand that finding a root cause is ideal, and I would be happy to further investigate this with you.
Since it is still happening in Safe Mode [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-issues-with-plugins-fix-problems please try to troubleshoot the plugins and extensions]
The other route is to troubleshoot the downloads folder and antivirus to make sure the downloading of the image is not having an issue either. [http://mzl.la/LJ0h2w]
In the meantime there is an add on that enables this [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/save-images/ Save Images]
Please post back with your results, there have been other reports, but no issue filed yet.

OIM: Invalid LookupQuery when trying to save

OIM: 11g (11.1.1.5.2)
When trying to create a form field, of type LookupField, I am entering the following Lookup Query property value:
select UD_ADGRP.UD_ADGRP_OBJECTGUID,UD_ADGRP.UD_ADGRP_DISPLAYNAME,UD_ADGRP.UD_ADGRP_DESC from UD_ADGRP,OIU,OBJ,OST where UD_ADGRP.ORC_KEY=OIU.ORC_KEY and oiu.ost_key=ost.ost_key and ost.obj_key=obj.obj_key and ost.ost_status in ('Provisioned', 'Enabled') and upper(obj.obj_name) = upper('AD Group');
When trying to save, I get
"Invalid Property Value was specified. Insert Failed"
My console log show:
java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: ORA-00911: invalid character
However, running the above query directly via JDeveloper brings back the proper information.
Any idea what the invalid character might be?
Thank you.

Thank you Kevin, that was it. ( I should have seen that before posting)
However, now when trying to add the 'Lookup Column Name' and 'Column Names' properties, the same error is being thrown.
I am setting:
Lookup Column Name to be: UD_ADGRP_OBJECTGUID
and it is throwing the errors:
<Mar 5, 2012 6:54:00 PM EST> <Error> <XELLERATE.SERVER> <BEA-000000> <Class/Method: tcSDP/isPropertyValid Error :Sdp Property value is invalid .>

(The same error happens trying to set 'Column Names' value.
I would like to be able to key on the OBJECTGUID attribute because I want to use it in a process task. I don't want to have to lookup it later. ie: I have a child table trigger that is executing, and the task adapter that I have assigned is needing the GUID as input.
Thank you.

Use Artboards disabled when trying to save as PDF in Illustrator CC

Then there's no reason to "Use Artboards". If you had multiple artboards in the file, then you could choose among them for the output but with a single artboard, only one will be output.

'Unknown Error' when trying to save files from CS under Leopard

We recently upgraded to Leopard, and reinstalled our CS apps. Photoshop and InDesign work fine. Illustrator, however gives us an 'An Unknown Error has Occurred' when trying to save any file. After dismissing the alert, a window pops up, informing us that, 'Can't save preview, but all other information was saved successfully. The file couldn't be found. ID=-43.' This happens when trying to save a new file, or an existing file, when saving with PDF preview is checked, or unchecked. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I deleted preferences on both machines. The Intel seems to be cured. All file formats save, printing, and importing are functioning normally.
The G5 however is only modestly improved. I can now at least create and save files. Printing also functions. However if I attempt to use the template dialog box or to import (place) a file the dialogs crash the application.
My suspect is a corrupt font, but until I have time to track down which one it is, I'll have to limp along as is...

Firefox hangs when trying to save a file, even after removing firefox and reinstalilng afresh

I recently experienced firefox hanging/freezing indefinitely when trying to save files, such as pdf files. The same pdf files open fine within the browser if I do not select "save link as...", but the problem occurs when I try to save such a file. The problem is similar regardless of the file type (e.g., .mp3, .txt). Not only did I go through the recommended solutions that mozilla suggests when file downloads hang, but I uninstalled firefox completely (removing all files with user settings), and then reinstalled firefox afresh without any plugins or add-ons, and I still have the same file save problem. It may also be worth mentioning that this problem does not occur in internet explorer or chrome. Maybe a system file that firefox uses got corrupted (?), but I don't know which one or how to repair it if that indeed is the problem.
My system is running XP, and I have McAfee AV installed (which has not been a problem in the past).

Early on I tried starting firefox in safe mode as one possible fix, and that didn't solve the problem. I just tried again right now with the fresh installation, and still no luck.
Any other ideas?

Error when trying to save a file

I get this error when trying to save any file (newly created or not) word document in MS word 2010:"You are attempting to save a file type (plain text files) that has been blocked by your File Block settings in the Trust Center".
I followed the directions given by the Microsoft Knowledge Base article 922850, but I am still having this issue. I can still save files as PDF but not in any kind of word format.
I also tried opening another file copy and pasting under a different name and it doesn't help.
Please Help.

Acrobat X Pro v 10.1.10 (Mac OS 10.9.3) hangs when trying to save PDF files

Acrobat X Pro v 10.1.10 (Mac OS 10.9.3) hangs when trying to save some PDF files, after opening or after commenting. Applies for any of the Save options. "Watch" then "spinning beach ball" appear and application is indicated as "not responding." Mac OS Preview has no problem with the same files. Files can be displayed with Acrobat, just not saved. I would prefer to use Acrobat's commenting tools to mark up the document.
