    Give me back my Save As...!

    In OSX 10.7 (Lion), the "Save As" option disappeared as an option for saving documents and was replaced by the combination of the "Save" command and "Duplicate". Duplicate creates a duplicate file that can be renamed and saved. This was done to prevent users accidentally overwriting a document. This feature is also part of the new Versions and Auto Save feature in OS X Lion.

    However, some users cried out for the return of the familiar "Save As..." feature. So, in OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) the "Save As..." has made a return although it is hidden by default. This lesson shows you how to access the "Save As..." menu in any application it is avaiable for.

    Facilities Requests

    All requests for maintenance, procurement, or OHS issues related to Facilities at the College must be submitted via the Help Desk. This enables the College to prioritise actions, document steps taken to resolve OHS issues, and identify recurring or systemic problems that may require something more than a simple (and repeated) fix.

    With new OHS regulations coming into effect on 1 January 2012, the College will be required by legislation to keep records of all maintenance and repairs completed. Therefore, it is essential that the Help Desk is used to record any Facilities-related requests.
