When I save a picture to my desktop, or anywhere, it comes up as 'picture.jpg.jpeg'. This causes errors when I go to upload the picture, so I have to go manually fix it. HOw to I fix this so I do not have to manually go fix it every time.

are you sure it's ".jpg.jpeg" and not ".jpeg.jpg"?
If it's the latter, then you need to stop adding the ".jpeg" extension to the end of the filename when you save it. The ".jpg" extension is added automatically anyway.

No this is a known bug generated by Safari 4 nothing wrong with Finder plist etc.
If you look at Apple boards you'll find lots with this same issue say it's a small one but annoying,
I did send a bug report.

This is an update just to note that Safari 4 now appends the .jpeg instead of .jpg & with some site works fine (meaning you only get . .jpeg & not .jpg.jpeg at the end)
Some sites have updated their handling (pic extension) try this link below & drag the pic of Dark Angel to your desktop it should work, another note Apple own site all or most of the flash or pics don't work ether!

You can correct file names with a pretty simple shell script.
Code:
for i in *.jpg.jpeg
do
name=$(echo $i | sed -e "s/.jpg.jpeg$/.jpg/")
mv "$i" "$name";
done;
And probably you can get Automator to do something similar.
