Where is "save as" in Preview?
I seem to have overwritten a large image file after reducing size and then expecting to "save as," which appears to be missing.
Did Apple once again eliminate this bit of age old, very simple functionality in favor of some super-clever, alien-race thinking?
Adding one additonal option to add Save As.
System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > App Shortcuts > All Applications
Add Save As... (must be entered exactly) assign shortcut Command Shift S
BTW, the Save as PDF... Must be entered command P twice to get this option. First Command P would do the regular Print. Type the shortcut twice and it will give you the save as PDF window.
You can add shortcuts for menu items that you frequently use that do not have a shortcut assigned like the Add to Contacts for Microsoft Outlook.

Where is " SAVE ALL " in Preview?
In M. Lion, " Save All " in Preview disappeared, so how to use this function after editing a pack of photo???
This has not been my experience.
When, in this test case, I select and change the size of 4 image files, and the do as you say, clicking on "Save" in the drop down menu under "File" while all are still selected, I do see the file sizes change in the folder they're in.
However, when I close the window (above), then the laborious saving of each, individual file still pops up, and one by one each must still be saved.
It was so much easier just to "Save All" before. This seems to fall under the proverbial, 'fixing what ain't broke.'
Either I'm not explaining myself clearly, or I'm not clear on some simple step/s here ... or Preview has, indeed been made harder to use. -
Where is "save as" or how to change file type in Preview in Lion?
Where is "save as" or how to change file type in Preview in Lion? I used to use Preview to change quickly change a lot of PNGs to either JPEGs or PDFs but with the introduction of versions auto save etc there no "save as" in the File menu. Any suggestions how to get this functionality back or how to get around it within OS X (no Photoshop etc)?
Just wasted 15 minutes looking for that. What's wrong with Save As?

"Always ask me where to save files" does not work.
Summary: The "Always ask me where to save files" feature does not work. No dialog box comes up, apparently because the browser is stuck on a bad old read-only lastDir location, in a prefs.js file that I can't edit.
Details:
I am using Firefox 30.0 on Mac OS 10.6.8. My Mac has a both a read/write Mac partition that I use most of the time, and a bootcamp Windows partition drive ("C"), which I can read but not write to.
At some point I accidentally tried to download a file from a site, using Firefox, to the read-only Windows C drive. Ever since that time, I have not been able to download any files from Firefox, except to the firefox/downloads folder. This is inconvenient. If, in preferences, I try to set downloads to ""Always ask me where to save files", the dialog box does not come up when I actually try to save files. This problem does not apply to saving photos by right-clicking them.
If I open, in text-edit, mozilla/firefox/profiles/t4vockvue.default/prefs.js, which was saved yesterday, I can see a problematic line. It reads:
user_pref("browser.download.lastDir", "C:\\Documents and Settings\\[etcetc]");
C:\\Documents and Settings\\[etcetc] being the read-only windows directory.
This prefs.js is apparently not an editable file.
I tried to fix this by opening a browser tab in Firefox and opening about:config. The editable browser.download.lastDir does NOT show the same "lastDir"....it shows some directory that I successfully downloaded photos to, by right-clicking on a photo.
How can I fix this problem?
Thanks.To confirm which profile folder is active when you are running Firefox, it is easiest to open it from inside Firefox as follows:
Sometimes the file that stores the customizations becomes corrupted and fails to update properly at the end of your session. You can rename the file and customize from scratch.
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
In the first table on the page, click the "Show in Finder" button (Windows: "Show Folder" button).
Hopefully you are using a separate profile folder on each OS. -
I deleted the folder that saves everything that is downloaded from Firefox. After that I can't download anymore. I've tried clearing my download history, reset the download folder, reset the download action by renaming the mimetype.rdfs file and it's still not working. I've tried to choose a different download folder but it doesn't let me select any folder at all. If I select "ask me where to save files" and then try and download something, the download doesn't start after I select save to. The only time it does actually download is when I select "open with...windows mediaplayer" when downloading then the download will start. Please help. Thank you.
You broke your phone by getting it wet. Nothing more to say. Bring it in to Apple for an out of warranty exchange or buy a new phone. There's really nothing else we users here can help you with.

When downloading a large file, like a movie, Internet Explorer automatically opens a download window offering the choice to "Open" or "Save"the file. This provides one with the choice of where to save it - e.g. "C" drive, in the "My Documents" or "Desktop" folders but Firefox's download window doesn't. This has always frustrated me because I would rather use Firefox exclusively to access the Internet, but when it comes to saving files downloaded off the Internet, sadly, I have to revert to IE!
If you click on Firefox from the upper-left, then Options, a new window should appear. On that window, click on the general tab. In the middle of the window, you'll see options regarding your downloads, one of which says, "Always ask me where to save files." Click on the bubble for this options, then click Ok. From then on, you should always be prompted on where you want your files saved.

I changed my setting to "always ask where to save files" and I went into my profile folder and deleted my preference folder.
Did you check the download settings?
*Tools > Options > General : Downloads : "Always ask me where to save every file"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Downloads+window -
Recently, the "save as" dialog box quit appearing when I attempt to download email attachments. I have the "always ask me where to save files" box checked in the tools/options/general/downloads area. The box still appears when I use Chrome, but not when I use Firefox.
Hello,
Can you please follow these steps and provide the value for the configuration 'browser.download.useDownloadDir'
# In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
# Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''', to continue to the about:config page.
Can you please provide the values for the following keys
#browser.download.useDownloadDir
#browser.download.lastDir
Thank you -
Is there an app where it saves your photo shortly after onto the web/online after taking a picture? In essense, I want to be able to take a picture with the stock camera app on the Iphone 4 and have it saved immediately online after...without hooking it back onto a computer...completely automatic and wireless/using internet data.
Thanks very much.If you're running iOS 5.1 or later you could use Photo Stream. See http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/photo-stream.html and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486. It will upload up to 1000 photos to iCloud.com for 30 days.

Saving a Pages document: when I first save a pages document it saves and I don't know where it goes or what its name is. I want to be asked every time I save a pages document what to name it and where to save it. How do I set this preference?
I'll guess that you've used a page layout document & pasting created a text box. You can add more pages & create linked text boxes, but I think you'd be better of using a word processing document. In word processing documents there is a basic text layer & additional pages will be created as needed to fit the text. Take a look at the toolbar of your document. If it says "sections" for the +page icon it's a word processing document, if it says "pages" it's a page layout document.

BPM attachments and comments where do save?
Hi there,
I develop a process with oracle bpm. this process have some activities that send attachments and comments together. my question is that where do save this attachments and comments? in database or file system? which table or which directory? i use default attachments and comments in HumanTasks.I hve to understand this files where do save, because i have to save this in my DB and use this in other processes.
can anybody help me?Milad,
This really depends, both approaches file/database works. If it was me then I would use the file system. Make sure this file system is mounted for clustering. This can be any directory you want.
The database is another option, but has more maintenance overhead. In my experience especially as you use attachment using file base performs better (as long if your hard disc is of reasonable standard)
Thanks

Where is save as feature on Lion ?
Where is save as feature in Lion ?
I understand that in Mountain Lion (10.8), Save-As is back - but it is a HIDDEN feature. To be honest, I never got used to the Duplicate function in Lion, so I am thrilled that this may be back - it was in the beta version of Mountain Lion.
Do a Google search to find the article that discusses this - if I recall, I read it on Gizmodo. Once you find it, I think you can turn it on so that Save-As is a permanent feature, or one accessible via the Control or Option keys.
Best of luck! I am thrilled! -

Where is "save as" located in Pages '09 v. 4.1?

Yes, there is, but only for a previously unsaved document, whether a new document or a copy made with duplicate. Once the file has been saved the command in the File menu changes to Save a Version.
