“Document Not Saved” error in Excel

Its so common that we convert an excel to a PDF. It happens almost everyday for me.

It was recently that I got to see the error “Document Not Saved” while converting an excel to a PDF file.

 

Here are the steps which helped me resolve the issue:

  1. Step 1: Check for your permissions – Many of the times, a shared file might restrict saving the file into other forms. In this case, get the proper permissions for yourself
  2. Step 2: You have embedded objects in your excel (MS Support Link)
    1. If you do, then the workaround is to remove the embedded objects and try saving the file again
    2. If you don’t know anything about the existence of embedded objects just like I do, then perform the following steps Smile 
      1. Use the Go To option from the Edit menu or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + G to open the Go To dialog box.
      2. Click on Special.
      3. Select Objects in the Special dialog box.
      4. Click Ok.
      5. This will highlight all the embedded objects on the excel file – now you can delete them Smile 

Picked up the above information from this link (Thanks!)

Hope this helps!

wget error–“zsh: parse error near &”

There is no doubt that I prefer wget way over any other type of downloads… Syntax: wget <DOWNLOAD_URL>   If you get this error “ zsh: parse error near & ” then its probably because your download URL has a “&” so you should try giving your DOWNLOAD_URL in double quotes wget “<DOWNLOAD_URL>”   If you are trying to download from a site which needs you to give your credentials then you can try giving it this way wget --http-user=<UserName> --http-password=<Password> “<DOWNLOAD_URL>”   Hope this helps

Resetting all the keyring passwords:  Navigate to  Places > Home . Press  ctrl   h  t o view "hidden files". Navigate to  .gnome2 > keyrings and delete   login.keyring Using the same keyring (resetting keyring password but keeping old passwords in keyring): 1) Make a backup of the keyring cd ~/.local/share/keyrings/ cp login.keyring login.keyring.backup and after that delete  login.keyring  file rm ~/.local/share/keyrings/login.keyring 2) Create a new keyring file from Gnome Keyring with the name "login" 3) Replace the new keyring file with the backup of the old keyring file cd ~/.local/share/keyrings/ mv login.keyring.backup login.keyring Note: before Ubuntu 12.10 the path to the keyrings folder was   ~/.gnome2/keyrings/   instead of  ~/.local/share/keyrings/
