Why doesn't PS have auto-recover?

This is probably the one thing about PS that bugs the crap out of me. If Photoshop crashes while you are working something, it is lost forever. I was working on a digital painting a couple of days ago, and I went to save it, and PS crashed.
Every other program (Word, Powerpoint, Excel etc.) has an auto-save/auto-recover feature. Why doesn't PS have one? It seems silly for it not to.

This has been discussed in several other threads, so do a search. As far as I'm concerned any such request doesn't make sense given how PS currently works and how the file format is structured. There's simply no realistic and safe way to save potentially large files in a few (micro-)seconds before a crash nor would that work as an auto-backup. Too many external factors and constant disk activity would have other negative side-effects... If you get my meaning: It's one thing to save a few kilobytes from a Word document in a few blips, but a totally different one shuffling around gigabytes.

    Why doesn't apple have a file of events that ties to the iCal program and the Address book file? By having that relationship it seems that you could call up all of the events tied to a customer while in the address book or likewise call up all of the events tied to a contact that was in the iCal program as a scheduled meeting. Even in the to do's you could easily look back at the events tied to an individual so as to bring yourself up to speed with what you were doing with the individual in mind.

    For one thing, true call blocking (ie. where the call NEVER actually connects through to your number) can only be done by the service provider at their switches.
    The best a device can do is allow the call to connect, and then use the caller ID information to compare that to a list of allowed and a list of disallowed caller IDs.  That is a feature known as blacklisting, but it is not the same as actually blocking a call completely.
    So as suggested, contact your carrier and ask what they can do for you.

  • Why doesn't Apple have a insurance program to cover stolen devices

    Why doesn't Apple have a insurance program to cover stolen devices?
    As a apple customer I feel that is very important that we are  offered some type of insurance plan to cover our devices if it is stolen besides the AppleCare which is offered that only cover software issues. We as consumers spending hundreds to thousands of dollars on our devices and if it is stolen we are not compensated for it at all which I think is totally unfair. We the consumer put our lives and in some cases our life savings into our devices and this should be taking into consideration By implementing a  insurance plan which allows consumers to choose the type of coverage plans allows the customer to feel more secure with there purchase.

    Well...   Usually the deductible is high enough to make it barely worth the claim.  Once you claim you may also find your insurance rates go up for several years.  The rule of thumb is don't claim unless you're talking at least $1000.  In that regard it could be useful if somebody offered separate insurance, though I suspect one might wonder why one was paying $50 or whatever per year for insurance on a single item versus just paying a bit more for a lower deductible on the homeowner's that would cover a host of items.
    Qbangz:  I have almost always had renter's insurance or the equivalent, even when I stayed in a dorm at college.  If somebody decides not to have it then that's a personal choice, but it is available.

  • Why doesn't iPhones have go keyboard

    Why doesn't iPhones have go keyboard

    Unless Apple decides to incorporate it with the iPhone and other iOS devices, 3rd party apps don't have access to private iPhone API's for security and other reasons which Google is clueless about with Android. The most insecure mobile operating system by far.
    Apple plans to incorporate some of that under iOS 8.

  • Why doesn't Flash have the option to publish to .flv?

    Why doesn't Flash or Adobe Media Encoder have the option to publish or covert .swf to .flv?
    Any suggestions on free .swf to .flv coverters?

    Thanks, kowboy.  I've just seen a few of those video conversion tools that specifically advertise .swf to .flv conversion.  They may degrade the quality and make certain features not work just like when you convert to .avi.  I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with any of those tools.
    I know this is a fairly odd situation.  Both myself and the other flash developer advised that they not use Flash to create 5 min plus videos and then wrap them in .flv flash players.

    Do a forum search.  This has been discussed over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

  • Why doesn't iOS/OSX auto-capitalize "Chinese"?

    So I just happened to notice this recently and was curious why this was so.  Apparently iOS/OSx doesn't auto capitalize Chinese as it does every other nationality/ethnicity, anybody know why? Just curious.

    Interesting.
    Whilst I would describe myself as ignorant on the matter I have the perception that all Chinese characters appear the same height. (that being the most telling difference in western/roman characters).
    My daughter visited China  in 2008  and took pictures of street signs and the like but I would not say I could spot any difference.
    Is capitalization just something we in the west (as it were) do in Translation ?

  • Why doesn't Firefox have an ADM/ADMX GPO file?

    I've been using Firefox for years, and it's always been my favorite browser. But working in our environment we push Firefox to our users, but we have no control of the software. Things we want to do are; allow pop-ups, disable auto-update, enable certain plug-ins and a few other settings we want configured.
    Why is this never tackled by the Firefox development group? I've seen 3rd party ADM\ADMX but they only last for a version and won't work again.
    Why won't Firefox do this for the business users? It's been brought up time and again.

  • Why Doesn't Adobe Have a Cool Logo to Use?

    I was looking for the "official" Adobe logo to place on my Photoshop portfolio with tagline "Built with Adobe" and can't seem to figure out what is their logo and where to download it.
    The image searches all look like knockoffs.
    Apple on the other hand, has the Iconic Finder face and Apple logos everywhere...does Adobe frown on people using their logo — why isn't it easily available (or am I somehow missing it)?
    Where is it?

    I agree about the Apple sticker. I have two in the side windows of my Bug. Actually they're more of an "ice breaker" than they are a way of saying Made on a Mac. My VW was made on an assembly line in Wolfsburg, Germany, but people see the stickers and they say, "Hey, I just switched to Mac!" And even if they don't know about forty-year-old air cooled german cars, they have something to talk about with me. Come to think of it, I can't recall ever seeing a "Windows XP" or "Vista" sticker anywhere but on the tower of a PC loaded with it. I've seen a few HP stickers, but they were on company cars, so I doubt it was solely product pride.
    Here's a good example of why I don't stick logos on stuff anymore. The last four sites I built for people, I told them how I was going to be using CSS for layout design, PHP for their contact forms, Javascripts, and whatever else I was building. All fourof them said, "I don't know anything about any of that stuff. That's why you're building it and I'm not. They didn't really care if I built it on my MacBook or my Toshiba laptop, they didn't really care if I hand wrote the code, or if I  let Dreamweaver do most of the back end work. As long as it looked right when I was done and they got a good place in a Google search, none of it mattered to any of them. As long as the header logo matched the company logo, they didn't care if I used Fireworks, Photoshop, or Corel Draw to put it together.
    99% of the people you meet won't give a crap one way or another what you use to make what they want. As long as you make it the way they want, that's all that matters. My mother is a painter. She doesn't affix little stickers to her artwork with the labels from the paint and brushes she used. The people she paints for don't want or need to know what she used. They want their paintings. Can you imagine if McDonald's put little lettuce, tomato and beef stickers on your burger telling you what brand they used to make your lunch?
    Steve Jobs has always had a different apporach to things than Bill Gates. That's why you pay less for OS X, (and there's only ONE version of it) than you do for Windows (which has anywhere from five to seven different builds). OS X doesn't require a product key and have a strictly enforced limit of five installs per disc, including reinstalls on the same system. And you can loan your OS X disc to a friend without having to call Apple for permission to install it first. I prefer OS X to Windows. I prefer iWork to Office. I prefer Photoshop to Paint or Corel Draw. But I'm not going to proclaim it to people who don't care. Here is about the only place I'll even mention it, unless someone brings it up in conversation.

  • Why doesn't itunes have an simple upload option for putting CDs and DVDs into my ipod touch library?

    I have movies and CDs I don't want to have to purchase again through itunes that I would like to put on my ipod touch without a lot of complicated hassles. I don't understand why it isn't a simple point and click and it happens option on my itunes library list of options. I have four kids and a ton of work and don't have time or expertise to spend figuring out how to make that work by reading through manuals. I don't see the point in buying the same music or movies or books twice. I work in a job that allows me to listen to my ipod while I work. This is a huge perk for an otherwise tedious and boring job, but I don't have time or money to spend buying extra movies or reading a ton of technical information trying to figure this all out. If they can do all the other stuff they do with an ipod touch I don't see why this request should be a serious challenge.
    I took a guess on my operating system. I don't know. Do you see the huge list of operating systems? That seems like a lot. It seems to me that everything should be compatible with everything else or people like me that expect to be able to do what other systems can do get really frustrated and irritated when we realize that we can't because capabilities and limitations where not emphasized in the advertising.

    HA! I'll add it to my favorites bar... then maybe I will be able to find it again. I just hope I can remember the password and username. You know that they aren't secure unless you change them every six months. Do you realize how many different computer systems and programs I have to engage in work and for personal use?! How in the heck am I supposed to remember all my passwords and usernames?! Oh, and it's not safe to write them down... especially with a bonehead like me that has too many irons in the fire and can't remember where he put his keys!

  • Why doesn't firefox have a "print" button in the tool bar and why can't I add attachments to my emails MOST of the time. It only works rarely?? Frustrating!

    I cannot find an add on as a print button for the firefox toolbar. Almost every time I want to print, I have to copy and then open a document and paste it there to be able to print it.
    Also, each time I want to add an attachment to an email, it rarely lets me. I have to open internet explorer and go through my email that way to be able to add attachments.

    1. File > Print <br />
    2. There is a '''Print''' button in the Customize palette for the Toolbars. <br />
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+customize+the+toolbar
    Considering that Firefox doesn't do email, that problem is probably caused by your webmail portal software not being totally compatible with Firefox. If you tell which webmail service you use maybe another user who is familiar with that service can help you.

  • Why doesn't Apple have their own branded HDMI to Mini cable?

    I just bought a second 27" monitor (not a Thunder Display) with HDMI connectivity, but I have to buy an off-brand cable to connect to my iMac. What gives?

    I think it gets to what Apple has decided to focus on as their core products. Apple tends now to focus on manufacturing things that are unique. The monitors that Apple sells have some unique aspects, and they do sell the unique cables for those (thunderbolt, mini-DV, etc.). Since the ports on the Apple computers are unique (thunderbolt, mini-DV), Apple does sell an adaptor for those, but the adaptor just gets you to an industry standard interface (e.g. HDMI, VGA). Once you are where you can buy industry provided standard products (e.g. HDMI cable), Apple tends to not try to sell products that compete in that market. If Apple sold a unique HDMI monitor still, I think it would be also selling the cable you are asking about, but Apple is out of that market now. Similarly, Apple doesn't make its own hard drives, you have to buy those from third parties.
    Apple doesn't sell its own brand of USB-USB cable, but it does sell the unique cable that is USB on one end and Apple iphone/ipod connector on the other end. Again, that's a unique interface.
    That's the logic, I think, behind Apple's position. I don't think it's entirely consistent, but it's probably how they are thinking about this.

  • Why doesn't iPhone have the options to import photos directly in Windows 8 like in Windows 7?

    It used to be able to import photos directly into the same folder as the photos are synced under "Last Import" back in Windows 7. But now in windows 8, I have to use Dropbox to import photos, yet Dropbox doesn't have the options to erase photos already imported.
    Any solutions?

    Hi,
    I tried replicating your issue at my end on Safari v5.1.7 and when i navigated to http://www.bmc.org/cancer-center.htm > downloads > cancer support services newsletter , it prompts me to 'open', 'save' or 'cancel' the file.
    When i open it opens properly in Acrobat 9 Pro. And after saving it if I try to open with Reader X, it works perfectly fine with me.
    Try resetting safari, by clicking on the 'gear' icon at the top right corner i.e. tools > Reset safari. It will pop up a new window, if possible keep all the options checked and reset safari. Then retry opening the link and it should work fine.
    Let me know if that helped or not.
    Regards,
    Ravi
