Photoshop crashes when I try and save for web and devices. Making the image size smaller does not help.

I'm trying to make a lopping .gif from an animation that I made. It's 147 total frames. It's crashed about 6 times now every time I either try and Save for Web or even just save the document on my desktop so in case it crashes I can reopen PS and recover it. Making the image size smaller (original size is 1920 x 1080 with resolution 72) does not help, it still makes the *ding* error when I attempt to save. I made the image more than half of the original size and the Save for Web box actually came up that time, but when I tried clicking save it said there was an error and PS crashed without warning.

Look at the crash report for your Photoshop crashes see what they show

  • When I try to upload a file it goes through the correct proceedure, but does not change the remote file i.e.Index.htm

    Hi
    I have an uploading problem to the server. The problem is when I try to upload a file it goes through the correct proceedure,
    but does not change the remote file i.e.Index.htm, or three stages1.htm.
    My Localroot folder is C:\Gods Plan Web\
    The site map layout is C:\Gods Plan Web\Index.htm
    The folder for the remote site is /public_html/
    Should the local root folder mirror the remote site, i.e./public_html/
    if this is so, what should I put into the
    (a) Local Root Folder box?
    (b) site map layout box?
    The FTP is performing well other than changing the intended file.

    You should be uploading only the contents of your local root to the public_html folder (remote root).
    The index.html you use as your site's home page needs to be in your site root. If you look at your Files window in DW, you should have something like the following...
    Site - Whatever you named your site
         index.html
         images
         pages
              page1.html
              page2.html
    If you have any folder between Site - and the index.html page, like...
    Site - Whatever you named your site
         mywebsite
              index.html
    It will upload to the public_html while still in that folder, so to find your page online, you would need to type something like...
    www.mydomain.com/mywebsite
    public_html should NOT appear within your local files and if it existed there, would cause a redundancy if uploaded. You would need to type www.yourdomain.com/public_html to see the uploaded pages.
    If you could post a screen shot of your expanded Files window while connected to the server (just connect and click the Expand button in Files, don't drill down into any of the directories), we may be able to see the issue.

  • Trying to not save artboard when exporting or using save for web and devices

    Hello,
    I am using AI CS5 and I am trying to save a logo that is on an 8.5 x 11 artboard.  When I try to export or 'save for web and devices', I am getting the entire artboard to be saved - not just the logo like I want.  I have never had this issue in CS3, and just started using CS5 so I am not sure if there is a new feature that I need to be turning off to just save the logo instead of the entire 8.5x11 page.
    Any help is appreciated,
    Kristie

    Thanks!  It was under the object - slice.  You've saved my sanity

  • PE11 crashes when animating layers in Save for Web?

    After months of saving GIFs just fine, Elements 11 has stopped working properly. I've tried uninstalling, resetting preferences, and reducing the file size, but when trying to save a GIF, all I get is a frozen screen that says "Export: Save for Web and Devices". The screen looks like it's trying to save, but never does. I've made much larger GIFs with no trouble at all, but I can't even make one with 5 frames now.

    When PSE gets weird, the first thing to do is to delete the preferences. Go to the editor preferences>general, click this button and restart the editor:

  • Save for Web isn't using the correct size of artboard

    I've been using CS5 for about 5 days now and have just run into this problem.
    My artboard is 800x600 px.  I have 6 layers of an animation I need to export as pngs so I can manipulate them in Imageready (yes, I still use it.)
    I Save for Web, export as CSS layers, original size is 800x600 px, new size is 800x600 px (I don't touch those settings), art optimized and clip to artboard is checked.
    But when I Save and check my files, not only are they 550x90 (the size of the art on the artboard) but they're cut off on the right side.  It's like Illustrator is saving them as actual size, registared to 0,0 (top right corner) of my artboard.
    I need to save my layers using save for web so I can drag them into other animated files in Imageready.  I need them at 800x600 px because that's the size of my final art and it's easy to center a lot of layers if they're all the same size.
    I can post image files if my question doesn't make sense.

    UPDATE:
    I've been experimenting.  My artboard is 800x600 px.  I have 2 layers.  My artwork is 900x700 on both layers.
    I Save For Web with Clip to Artboard checked.
    I save a jpeg and my file is 800x600.
    I save a png and my file is 800x600. 
    I save as png and check Export As CSS Layers and my 2 layers are 900x700.  This ONLY seems to happen with the Export as CSS Layers checked.
    Also, I use File->Export->PNG and check Use Artboards and my file is 800x600.
    I use File->Export->JPEG and check Use Artboards and my file is 800x600.
    I use File->Export->BMP but I can't check Use Artboards, it's greyed out and uncheckable.  Huh?  I need to export my image as a BMP at 800x600.
    I don't understand what I'm missing here.

  • Save for web&.... the image exceeds the size for ....issue with AI on imac i7

    Hi,
    I just upgraded from using macbook Pro to Imac inte core i7 with 4GB. I use illustrator CS3 for high resolution documents i.e saving a Design for say maybe saving for iphone &ipod skin; a quality jpg that is 1300px(width) by 2000px(height.
    General information
    The issue is I keep getting the pop up with:
    The image exceeds the size Save for Web was designed for. You may experience out of memory erros and slow performance. Are you sure you want to continue?
    I click yes, but get another pop up with:
    Could not complete this operation. The rastarized image exceeded the maximum bounds for save for web.
    And last weekend after NOT being able to save anything I went and bought 16GB memory thinking that this ussue would be solved, but nada.
    I have researched around here and google only to find about scratch disk: went to preferences then to plug-ins and scratch Disks -I seem NOT to get to the bottom of this at all.
    And this morning I was trying to create a pattern Design and could not even get the design on the color swatches as I have done before with macbook pro with 4GB -IT'S NOT FUN, because I am NOT doing it right. Do you care to help me out?
    Thanks a whole bunch in advance
    //VfromB

    Are you including a color profile?  What metadata are you including with it?
    How many pixels (h x v)?
    50 kb is not all that big.  Does your image have a lot of detail in it?  Content can affect final compressed size.

  • Having problem with CS4 and CS5 Photoshop crashes when I try to save.

    Any ideas?
    I'm using an iMac 2.33 Ghz  with 2.5 Gb ram.
    I've seen someone say to try trashing the Preferences but I can't seem to find that file.
    This is driving me nuts please any help is appreciated.
    Zub

    A crash report would be useful.
    (especially since most of the crashes on save are in OS code)
    See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/375776  for how to reset preferences.
    And make sure you've installed all the updates to Photoshop.

  • Firefox crashed when I try to get into my work site via citrix. Internet explore does not firefox 7.01

    I have firefox 7.01. and every time i try to log on to my work site via the web and client server, firefox crashes and leaves not log.
    Internet explore works without issue.
    How do I stop the system from crashing - i didnt have a problem in earlier versions of firefox.

    This is a chronic problem. Not related to time of day. It is a permanent block on my ability to log into my Yahoo mail from the Firefox web browser on one computer ONLY. I can log in from other computers. This seems to have nothing to do with add-ons or extensions. Upgrading from Firefox 3.6 to 4.0 had no effect and this also does not effect any other web browser on the same computer.
    Again, every time on try to log into my Yahoo mail using Firefox on my main desk time I get a "404 Not Found" error.
    Please give me a serious answer.

  • Error when trying to "Save for Web and Devices"

    Hello All,
    I have a little issue with Photoshop CS3 on the XP Pro platform.  I get the error when I try and "Save for Web and Devices".  This is the actual error.  "the exception unknown software exception"  uhh... lol
    I currently work for a school district.  I'm the Tech/Network Admin for the entire district.  We have a lab setup with some new PC's (As of last June)  They all have 2 gig of ram Core 2 Duo 2.4 ( I think).  Pretty good machines.  We currently have an image built for them so essentially they are all the same builds.  We recently just updated the image as of a month ago.  In talking with the teacher who does the tech classes in this lab, he recently ran into this problem as of a week ago.
    We are a Novell based campus.  Zen 7 support pack 7 I think as well.  We do however lock down the machines.  Dynamic Local users.  Everything gets pulled off the machine when the user logs out.  Now I do sort of think that this issue is related to some type of policy we're pushing down because when we use our "Tech" account which does have local admin rights to the PC we don't get an error.  We haven't modified the policies here in quite a while.  School is almost over and we'd like to relax for a bit and not cause any problems.  LoL
    And in fact all the PC's in our High School have this issue.  And currently we have about 3 different models not including the one I listed above.  Any advice is much appreciated.  Cause I'm pretty stuck on this issue.
    Thanks,
    Jesse

    Save for web and devices saves its own prefs to retain the last active settings. When it can't do that, it will fail. You may wish to grant write permissions to the Documents and Settings\App Data\Adobe\ Save for Web folder. The same applies to Device Central...

  • Firefox crashes when i try to save or download

    firefox crashes when i try to save or download and also if i try to go to option in tools

    Hey divyakarelia,
    Have you tried starting Firefox in Safe Mode? Hold down "shift" while Firefox is starting up. If the crash doesn't happen in Safe Mode, you should read [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].
    There is also a lot of useful stuff in the [[Firefox crashes]] Knowledge Base article. If you've recently upgraded, you might want to check out [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/latest-firefox-issues#w_firefox-crashes-when-i-start-it this article] as well.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Slice and 'saving for web and devices' not saving all images in selected area

    Ive designed my site in illustrator and now im using slices and save for web and devices.
    When I save a slice as a jpeg or gif it saves the text and but not the background image behind it. I haven't locked the background image and all the content is on the same layer in illustrator so why is it doing this and how can I stop it?
    Thanks
    James

    Thanks for your reply.  Yes, my Photoshop CS5 is updated to 12.1.  I'm running OSX 10.5.8 and have tried viewing in Safari, Firefox, and Chrome with no improved success.
    I have been reading these forums for about 3 hours trying to find the answer to this question but am still at a loss.  I have found one article here: 
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7974006/overlapping-image-in-photoshop-splice-how-to-fl oat-with-css
    which explains using an "absolute" value in CSS to lock images in place.  I'm currently working in Dreamweaver to see if it's a common error in Photoshop when resizing browser but is easily fixed on the CSS side.
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thanks!

  • After the latest Security Update 2012-001 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) my Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Dreamweaver 8, and InDesign CS programs crash when I try to save a file.

    After the latest Security Update 2012-001 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) my Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Dreamweaver 8, and InDesign CS programs crash when I try to save a file. HELP!!!

    Howdy,
    Apparently some are reporting that this causes the older PowerPC (PPC) applications that are supported in 10.6 via 'Rosetta' to crash upon attempting to open/save/print using any dialog box, or fail in other similar ways such as simply not printing or quitting, or freezing/hanging/crashing of the application.
    I have read of some companies that have indeed submitted proper bug reports to Apple, but that is not a guarantee of a bug-fix being issued.
    You might wish to read:
    http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/snowleopard/index.html#d02feb2012
    If you are unsure if you are still using PowerPC apps, if the application is currently running, look under the 'Activity Monitior' (in Applications -> Utilities), or alternatively you could check in the System Profiler, Applications. Check the column "Type".
    Here is a fairly simple way you can restore you system and restore you applications functionality again, if you don't have a recent clone or good Time Machine backup that you can restore from. If you do, restore from your backup prior to having installed the Security Update 2012-001.
    Time Machine restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
    If you are restoring a backup made by a Mac to the same Mac
    With your backup drive connected, start up your Mac from the Lion recovery partition (Command-R at startup) or Mac OS X v10.6 installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility. Select the backup prior to your issues, and it will be restored back to the state it was in at that time.
    If you can't easily restore from a backup, you can instead do the following:
    - You first start by reinstalling your OS X 10.6.x, this will preserve all your user data, your applications, no worries there.
    - Then install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 (links provided below)
    - Make sure you're printers are showing up correctly in your system preferences, if not, re-add the printers
    - Then finally, run the Apple Software Update (by pulling down the Apple Menu), and install any and all remaining updates, except do not then re-install the Security Update 2012-001. It is possible that you may have to reboot after installing some of the updates, and you may even need to run it a 2nd time to make sure that you've got all updates, except NOT the Security Update 2012-001.
    Links for 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    or the link to directly download this 1.09GB combo updater:
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/DL1399/en_US/MacOSXUpdCombo10.6.8.dmg

  • Photoshop CC closes or freezes when saving in save for web and devices

    Hello,
    Since I have a new laptop with Windows 8, I couldn't get Photoshop CS6 anymore, so I downloaded PS CC.
    It's working great the last days, but since yesterday PS freezes or closes everytime I try to save a .gif in save for web and devices.
    It drives me insane...
    I hope someone can help me.
    Thanks in advance.

    Trash the Save for Web prefs in the respective folder (C:\Progrom Files\Common Files\Adobe or your user home directory).

  • Am I the only one for whom Illustrator 5.5 unexpectedly crashes when I try to save a doc?

    Am I the only one for whom Illustrator 5.5 unexpectedly crashes when I try to save a doc on Yosemite?Compatibility with Yosemite — Illustrator CS5.5

    Various folders. It usually allows me to re-save older files, but a new save is practically impossible to accomplish. I tried Reducing Transparency, as suggested in earlier posts to no avail. Also, when I drag an eps icon into Illustrator, it asks me if I want to retain the 9-slice scaling options for symbols — not sure what that means. Tried that both ways, with no results. Just had it crash on me 8 times this evening!
