| | Unable to save. I am 'printing to pdf' to save a web page in that format. I get the following error message C:\filename.doc You don't have permission to save in this location. Contact the administrator to obtain permission. Would you like to save in the 'username' folder instead? When I click on YES, I get the same error but with the 'username' in the address. I am administrator OS is Vista Business Acrobat is 8.1 Standard |

| | Re: Unable to save. Where you are going to "Save" change the file location there, rather than have Vista prompt you for it. And make sure you are saving it in the folder for the user you are logged in as. -- Dustin Harper dharper@xxxxxx http://www.vistarip.com | Vista Resource & Information Page Was this helpful?

| | Re: Unable to save. Dustin It seems to make no difference which folder I select, including desktop - the error message repeats !

| | RE: Unable to save. Christopher, Agreed. I see the same thing. MS says that our disk drive was formatted under XP and that we need to reformat our root drive using Vistas NTFS. How stupid a suggestion is that? Does it make you think that the MAC commercials are correct? Just in case you didn't see MS stupidity: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/931277 I will keep searching for the answer and will get back with you. If you find the answer first, please let me know. I am a Vista power user and use it constantly. -- Keith "Christopher" wrote: Quote: > I am 'printing to pdf' to save a web page in that format. > I get the following error message > > C:\filename.doc > You don't have permission to save in this location. > Contact the administrator to obtain permission. > > Would you like to save in the 'username' folder instead? > > When I click on YES, I get the same error but with the 'username' in the > address. > I am administrator > > OS is Vista Business > Acrobat is 8.1 Standard > > |

| | RE: Unable to save. Okay, Christopher, I have a work around. This may actually be an Adobe Acrobat problem, since they provide the Adobe PDF print driver. I also own the PDF995.com PDF software (it's free). PDF995 provides its own print driver (PDF995). This work without a hickup. I may put in a ticket with Adobe and will let you know. -- Keith "Moose" wrote: Quote: > Christopher, > > Agreed. I see the same thing.

| | RE: Unable to save. Okay, I have the definitive answer. It is an IE Microsoft and Adobe Acrobat problem. You can fix it in IE, but you compromise security to some degree. You will be able to print just fine after you do this: Disable Protected Mode in Internet Explorer. 1. In the Control Panel, open Internet Options. 2. Go to the Security tab. 3. Uncheck Enable Protected Mode for the security zone covered by the page you are printing. 4. Close all Internet Explorer windows. -- Keith "Moose" wrote: Quote: > Okay, Christopher, I have a work around. > > This may actually be an Adobe Acrobat problem, since they provide the Adobe > PDF print driver. > > I also own the PDF995.com PDF software (it's free).
