Where is my Save As in Lion?

Perhaps this only applies to Preview, but I went to do something I do all the time: convert a screenshot from .png to .jpg just in case some Windows user couldn't read it, when I suddenly realised Preview no longer has Save As and it's stupid "Save a version" means the same as the old "Save", which means it's in the same format. Where has my Save As gone? How can I do something similar?

Depending on what you want to wind up with, you'll need to use either 'duplicate' which will give you two copies - one png, one jpg - or export the png; you can change the format during that process. It's a new feature in lion,

Where do Drafts save to in Lion Mail V.5

So on my Laptop I have Snow Leopard and I saved a draft in Mail v4.5. I go to my iMac Mail v5.0 with Lion and it doesn't a drafts area.
So where did my draft actually save to?
And what happens if I was using web mail on my own server to save a draft and then try to access it in my mail client on my iMac?
What was wrong with the single mail view header in Mail v4.5?
In the new header their isn't a button to my address book… Their isn't a "Save As Draft" no colors button. So 3 out of the nine buttons I usually have on my mail address aren't even availble on the new mail client? Why?
None of these user interfaces were well thought out in my mind and I'd really like my drafts folder back as it syncs with my own IMAP mail server… Along with the icons "Save As Draft" "Address" and "Colors" in the single mail message header.

Where did the "save as" feature go?

I just opened up a Pages document, after my Lion upgrade. I want to use the orginal document, make changes and save as a new document. However, when I clicked on "File" to go to the "Save As," I discovered it is no longer there. Where is the "Save As" feature now. This is, obviously, a crucial need.

In most cases, though, you don't need a separate file. Just make a Version with Cmd+S.
Much faster, and takes up much less space, since it only saves the changes, not the whole document.
As a work machine processing files, folders, and graphics, in many cases I do, everyday.
Changing file name and format and still have the original to work with.
Seems crazy to me.

I want my SnowLeopard manual-save back in Lion.

To Mac OS X Lion Product Manager:
Here's a list of annoyances and frustrations re Lion autosave:
I save my work at conceptual checkpoints that make sense to me. When autosave keep saving my files my history gets dirty so quickly that revision history doesn't make sense to me anymore. It's more difficult to get back to a version where I can correlate to my checkpoint.
Frequently, I open 'Numbers' documents for what-if analysis without intension to save it at all. When autosave kicks in, it modifies the time signature of the document. Then every time before quitting, I have to "Revert to the original", or to create a duplicate and close the original; i.e., I have to do more thing that I don't used to do before. What happened to Apple's philosophy of non-intrusiveness? (BTW, full screen was nice :-)
When working on regular hard disk drives (not even mentioning network drives) autosave is just distraction and annoyance. It keeps bugging me every time it tries to save. When files get slightly larger (such iWork files) even SSD disk drive becomes annoying. (Don't get me wrong; I have 2011 17" MacBook Pro with fastest i7 processor.)
All machines that we do critical work has either battery or UPS. I have not witnessed Mac OS X crash more than once in two years. That said, what do we afraid of? Loosing what exactly? Paranoia, as we see in politics, should not be our motivation.
The reason I moved away from MS-Windows because it got more and more intrusive over time with the assumption that they need to design an operating system so easy even very naive persons can use it. There is thin line there, when you cross it you start annoying normal people. If you remember human intelligence bell-curve, normal people are the majority. With autosave, I see the a similar pattern in Mac OS X (sad but true). Please don't cross that line or give us an option if you do.
Because of iWork autosave, I reinstalled my Lion and from scratch and installed iWork with the latest update for SnowLeopard -- without autosave. This time 'Software Update' is keep bugging me, but this is much lesser annoyance that I can live with.
That said, I want my manual save back in Lion as an option for the rest of us, normal people, professional working people -- if you really care about our experience.
Very frustrated Mac lover.
(I love everything else in Lion.)

We are all users like you here. There is no guarantee that any of the Apple programmers will read your post. I suggest you leave feedback for Apple for Lion as well as each of the apps you miss Save As… in.
Also, you posted in the iWork for iOS forum. The better location would be one of the iWork for Mac forums.
Take a look at this thread for a workable solution.

How do I save a document using Lion?
To save a NEW copy in Preview:
File->Export
You said that you d/l'd a PDF in Mail, so why not just click the "Save" button in Mail?
(Make sure that you click the "Details" button in Mail)
In Mail:
BTW, I'm very happy with Lion. (In regard to all the negative Lion posts, ask yourself if you're more likely post a comment here telling us how happy you are with features of Lion, or to complain about something that's changed).

Where does iWeb save the contents of my website now that iDisk is not available?

With the latest change to iCloud and iDisk not available anymore, where does iWeb save the contents of websites?
I looked for the files undel Library/Application Support/....but could not find the iWeb folder.
Any ideas please?
Thank you.

In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

How can I save OS X Lion To SD Memory Card?

Hi, I was wondering if any of you have been able to save OS X Lion to an SD memory card. I want to do this but I have no where to start, How big of an SD card should I use 4GB? Thank you.

So what you need is a copy of the Lion install files that you extract the Lion InstallESD.DMG file from then burn that to a DVD, USB thumb drive or SD card.
Those files, the InstallESD.DMG file, do not, does not, exist on your system. You have to download them from the Apple servers and save a copy of them.
Look at this link for instructions on how to get them and extract the InstallESD.DMG file and then use LionDiskMaker to create the USB or SD card with the files on it.

Can I create separate folders to save media on my Airport Time Capsule? Issue is I have a 256GB HDD Mac Pro Retina which is almost full. TC will only take backup of my HDD. So where would I save my photos and videos from my iPhone and iPad?

It is a hard one.. laptops with small drives are a pain.
What you need is a home media server.
Some people use a PC running itunes for cost.. but that is nothing like as good as using a Mac mini.. they make great little HTPC device.. you can plug in large hard disks and store all your files and media. And share it with the network.. Read up apple's instructions on home sharing.
https://www.apple.com/au/support/homesharing/
For cost you can buy a mini from 2011 or 2012.. I would not recommend earlier ones.. the advantage of 2012 is they have USB3 ports. But you will pay more for them.. new mini is not as useful.. they have soldered in memory and you cannot upgrade.. the old mini was the most easily modified mac in the whole range. Uses little power and can be bought for a $300US for a good one second hand.. maybe less.

I game online and have problems with games working after updating firefox. I use an older version but am concerned about security. Two questions: can I be sure that Firefox 4 will work on my system (vista) and where do I save the file at?

I have had a problem with the compatibility of Firefox running with the games I play online. I don't want to attempt an upgrade again, only to have to turn around and degrade so my activities can work. Furthermore, I'm not sure where to save the Firefox file in my system, since for some reason it doesn't take me right to where it should save.

Hello,
the *.jar file thing is a common problem in Java. One simple solution to the problem is by saving the *.jar file in the C:\j2sdk1.4.0\jre\lib\ext\ folder. This directory is an extension to the regular java files and by doing this, java will look in this directory if you import some other files not included in the java package. This does not work if you are using JBuilder, couse JBuilder installs its own jsdk, which is uses, probably under the JBuilder folder.

The Where in the save as dialog box

The Where in the save as dialog box is frustratingly limiting is there a way to change this so I can browse to the folder I want?

I recommend you get Default Folder. I've considered it a must have utility for my systems since OS9 Classic days. It greatly helps in navigation for the ever deficient file dialogs in OSX (and OS9).

Why is there no iDVD on my new Mac?
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3673
UPDATE & ADDENDUM:
But even though you can still buy iLife 11 that includes iDVD 7 from Amazon, Apple now make it difficult to install:
Poster jhb21939 posted this in another thread:
“when I attempted to load iDVD into a new iMac. A notice came up on the screen stating that the 'Authorisation Licence' had expired on 25 March this year (2012).
I contacted the Apple support team and eventually, I was told that the Licence had been withdrawn and could no longer be used.”
In other words Apple are now so adamant that we don’t use iDVD that they have tried to make it impossible to install.
In response, Old Toad posted this solution:
“You can still use it one all of your Macs. If you get an invalid certificate message just set your Mac's clock to sometime before early 2011 and run the installer. After you're done reset the time back to the correct time.” He added this comment:
“It began after iDVD and iWeb were discontued and they were dropped from the Apple Store. All I can think of is the certificate was set to expire after a certain time period after the intitial iLife disc was released.
I've been able to use the installer even without setting back the date. I just clicked on the Continue button and it would work as expected. For some it would not continue unless the date was set back.”
The latest anorexic iMacs just announced do not even include a CD drive! Proof positive that Apple virtually prohibit the use of DVDs - although the newly announced Mac Minis do include a Superdrive.
Yet, they still include iMovie! Heaven alone knows or understands what you are supposed to do with your newly edited masterpiece - except make a low quality version for YouTube?

Where do I save other ICC Profiles so I can use them in softproofing in Lightroom 4?

I am starting to use an online photo printing service and the photos are not an accurate representation of what I see on the screen so I want to download their color profiles which are specific to their printers and various papers. Where do I save the files so Lightroom4 can access them in softproofing?

On a mac, it's Library/ColorSync/Profiles either in the root or user level (under 10.7, that folder is hidden)**
**In the Finder, choose Go > Go To Folder.
In the Go To Folder dialog, type Sudo ~/Library Click Go.
OR
This method makes the user library folder permanently visible but requires the use of Terminal (not for the novice user):
Launch Terminal from the Utilities folder.
In Terminal type the following command and type Return key:
1. chflags nohidden ~/Library
Enter administrator password and then type Return key.
Type Exit and quit Terminal.

Where should I save my Dreamweaver Widgets?

Hi, everyone.
I downloaded a Lightbox widget. Clearly, I made a mistake in saving the widget, because this is the address in my header information for the CSS file!
C|/Users/Alex/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Dreamweaver CS4/en_US/Configuration/Temp/Assets/eam6DA9.tmp/css/lightbox.css
I am downloading the widget again, and it is asking for my destination folder. Where should I save the widget so that I can pop the CSS and JS files right into the head data?
Thanks a lot, Community -

Hello Queenoid,
It does not matter where you save the widget although you probably want to save it into something like your "My Documents" or "Downloads" folder for easy access. When you save the Lightbox widget, 1 file (LightBox Gallery Widget_default.html) & 3 folders (css, images, scripts) are saved in the location you specified. If you want to use your own pictures, go into the images folder & replace the images there with your own.
When done, upload the file & folders to your site & everything should work.
