Recording Save for Web in an Action still doesn't work properly in Photoshop CS6 13.0.1

There is still an issue with making new actions that include saving for web. While recording the action, save for web functions as it should. But once the action is played, regardless of the original format the saved image should be, it gives it an html filename extension. This can be extremely frustating when you have an action that saves over a hundred images from a single action.
I have seen posts in Adobe forums from many people regarding this very irritating bug, including posts from Adobe employees acknowledging the bug. This was present in the Beta, the initial release, and in this 13.0.1 update. No fix.
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/ps_cs6_actions_recorded_action_expor ts_html_instead_of_jpg
The employee acknowledged this bug THREE months ago (as of this post), yet all things considered, this doesn't seem like something that would take three months to fix!
I have spoken about this bug with a friend that is a computer programmer. Considering that the action is saving the file correctly, and it's only the name that is not saving properly indicates that this is a superficial error, and not an issue that would require rewriting the code completely. Also consider that this WAS functioning properly in CS5, and that this is a very easily reproducible bug. Adobe should have plenty of information required to correct the issue. I understand that this fix may be more or less difficult to do than what I am suggesting, but it should have been fixed by now.
I don't understand this mentality. Please Adobe... Put CS7 down for a little while, and fix what needs to be fixed in CS6. People (myself included) have paid A LOT of money for your products, it's not unreasonable to expect them to work properly. Bugs happen, it's understandable, but it's not unrealistic to expect a fix for them when the software is as expensive as it is. Is there actually any plan to correct this issue?

  • Save for web greyed out, CS4, 10.5.8 (worked on 10.4)

    I have been on the phone with Adobe for over 2 hours...I have reinstalled several times, and even used the cleaning software that they suggested I download and use last night before I called.  He's currently checking to see if they can email me the "Save for Web" plug in.
    We have deleted the preferences for Photoshop.  We have updated.
    NO Save for Web folder to be found anywhere.
    Any advice would be most appreciated.

    NO Save for Web folder to be found...
    Can you find your Adobe Save for Web preference file? (user>Library>Preferences>Adobe Save For Web 11.0 Prefs)
    If so, toss that in the trash (or put a tilda ~ in front of its name) and try relaunching Photoshop.
    Also make sure the Photoshop application is installed in the right place: from Finder Go>Applications>Adobe Photoshop CS4 (folder)> Adobe Photoshop CS4 (application)
    And I assume the file your are trying to SFW is not a 32bit per channel file? Can't remember SFW limitations on CS4, but be sure by trying it on a 8bit per channel RGB image.

  • I have Lightroom 4 and a new 70D camera and when I try to important my photos Lightroom says it doesn't recognize my CR2 files.  I have downloaded plugin for the camera, but it still doesn't work.  Can you help?

    I have Lightroom 4 and a new 70D camera and when I try to important my photos Lightroom says it doesn't recognize my CR2 files.  Can someone help?  I have downloaded 8.3 from Adobe, but still doesn't work?

    Lightroom doesn't use the Camera Raw plug-in. All of the Camera Raw technology is part of the Lightroom program. You will either have to upgrade to Lightroom 5 or use the DNG converter to create digital negative copies that can be used with Lightroom 4.

  • Searching for a folder in document library doesn't work properly if the folder is at the root level.

    Hi,
    I have a folder named FS0 on my sharepoint 2013 site. The folder is the first level folder under
    Default Document library (Shared Documents). When I search for FS0 on the sharepoint site, the search result give a link to home.aspx and not the folder. If I search for any folder that is a second level folder in the library, I get a search result that takes
    me inside the folder on clicking it. In my case, I search for a folder named FS1 which directly under FS0. The search result takes me inside FS1 in this case. How can I make the search result display proper links for root level folders also?<o:p></o:p>
    Thanks
    Pranava

    Hi Pranava,
    I couldn't reproduce this issue, when I create root folder FS0 in "Shared Documents" and start a full crawl, I click the FS0 link from search results page, it will open the FS0 folder as well as folder under FS0.
    Please right-click the FS0 name hyperlink (e.g. mine is http://sp/Shared%20Documents/FS0) and paste in IE browser see if it could be accessed successfully.
    Also test if other Shared Documents have this issue in other site collection or web applications, if not, run a full crawl may do a trick (please reset search index if only full crawl still doesn't work).
    Thanks

    Please any idea?.Thank you

    I have followed the other discussions and done the suggested updates or deletes and to no avail.
    Unless you tell us exactly what you have tried, we have no way of knowing exactly which updates or deletes? aren't working for you.
    Try installing the combo >  Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
    It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.8.
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed, try the App Store.

  • Newest wicd still doesn't work properly

    Hi all,
    I was keeping wicd v. 1.5.9 from upgrading because I couldn't get the newest versions to work. Today I saw yet another update of wicd, and thought things could work this time. Still, I can't get it to work. The tray icon appears this time, but wicd behaves abnormally. It can't connect to my hidden network, the wicd gui shows no network (although there are at least 3), etc.
    Fortunately, reverting back to 1.5.9 was again successful. But is there any way to make the most recent version of wicd to work properly?
    TIA

    Thanks for your feedback.
    Here is the output requested.

  • Executable Jar? - Googled for hours, tried many solns, still doesn't work!

    I am fairly new to Java, and I'm just simply trying to create an executable jar that will run when I double-click on the icon.
    I have created my very basic program that uses java swing on Netbeans. I have right-clicked on the project, selected properties, and checked the packaging section to make sure that it creates a jar file. I also selected compress jar file, which some tutorial told me to do as well. (I've also tried not checking compress jar file to see if it made a difference... it didn't).
    I then went to folder options to make an association with the jar file to javaw.exe so that when I clicked on the icon, it would know to use javaw.exe to open it. When I double click on the jar file, it now just makes the error noise and nothing happens. Before I made the assocation, it would open up ultimatezip which would show me the original source code, the class file, and the manifest.mf file.
    In any event, I'm just playing around with creating an executable jar file and any advice on how to make it so that the GUI launches when I double click on it would be extremely helpful.

    Thanks for your prompt response. I just tried your suggestions. 1 & 2 both worked for me. I have fiddled around some more with my file association and have looked at several sites that go through it step-by-step and I have tried them all. I went to tools, folder options, and I have changed the association to javaw.exe
    I just can't figure out what's wrong.Good. So at least you know that it is the file type association that is not working correctly.
    On my Windows PC, when I edit the open Action for .jar files, the command string is
    "C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe" -jar "%1" %*Maybe that will help. Of course, the path to your javaw.exe may be different.

  • Save for Web with Optimize File Size for Batch Process

    I have a client who needs to be able to run a batch process on jpg images ranging in size from 600KB to 2.5MB optimizing their file size as close to 200KB as possible. The feature is included in Photoshop's save for web optimize dialog but it doesn't work for batch processes. If you record an action with the optimize to file size option set it processes all the images in the batch based on the quality settings required to resize the image you used during recording, meaning if the image you recorded was 1.5MB the quality setting might be 70 percent to hit the 200KB mark but that wouldn't be the correct quality setting for a 600KB file nor a 2.5MB file those would either be too small or too large.
    I've done quite a bit of searching both online and in the photoshop scripting forums but I haven't been able to find anything that would point me in the right direction.
    My client's paying for this work so if there's someone who knows how to script this who'd rather be paid than just do some pointing we can arrange for that quite easily.
    Thanks in advance for your assistance and suggestions.
    In case it's of importance we're using Photoshop CS4.

    If you don't mind spending a few bucks on a shareware prog, Jpegsizer has the option to save to a filesize.
    You can find it here.

    There is a free trial version, but you can't save files.

  • How do I change the image size in Save for Web?

    I just upgraded to Illustrator CS6 on a PC.  I try to save my graphic in Save for Web and want to alter the image size, but it won't change,  it just goes back to the original size.  If I change the percentage box, the values change.  I have tried linking and unlinking the proportions and nothing.  What am I missing??  I don't have time to guess the percentage to get to the exact width I need. 

    Make changes in the Image Size section of the Save for Web. Input new values in Width and press Tab key to move to Height field. Click on the Link icon to unconstrain proportions. As you press the Tab key again to go out of focus of the Width and height boxes, you will see the changes reflect inside the Save for Web window. If this doesn't work then make sure you have updated Ai to 16.0.1 or 16.1.0 depending on the type of installation (from Disc or from Creative cloud) respectively.

  • Actions and Save for Web

    I have tried to research this on my own searching the forum and asking users far more advanced than I am to no avail. I thought it might be possible that someone here would know whether what I want is feasible.
    I use the "Optimize to file size" feature in the Save For Web Panel constantly. I am planning on doing a large amount of conversions in the near future (by which I mean resaving .jpegs at a certain dimension and resolution. As far as the dimension and resolution go, there is no difficulty creating an action to do that. But the icing on the cake for me is have them all processed through Save for Web at a certain file size (for the sake of argument, say 500K). Yes, I know that the resulting images will vary in quality (obviously) because the end result will very much depend on their file size to begin with but that is not an issue for me for my purposes.
    Save for Web has various presets and allows you to save presets; however, it does not allow you to save the Optimize to file size as a preset. When I try to record an action, and go to the Save for Web, use the Optimize etcetera, the action created lists the quality of the image I process to record the action. So, for example, if my image is less than 500K, the quality recorded in the action is 100. If my image exceeds 500K, the quality might be 86 and that is what the action records. For whatever reason, what is recorded is the quality rather than the 500K. I am not sure if this is being written clearly enough to explain. I want every image to end up being 500K regardless of what the final quality is (quality being the difference between the original image and the image as saved by Save for Web). But actions are saving the attribute of quality rather than file size.  Sigh. I think I am just repeating myself trying to make it clear but probably failing. In case a screen shot helps clarify, here it is. If this can't be done, I would love to know that so I can give up trying.

    I want every image to end up being 500K regardless of what the final quality is (quality being the difference between the original image and the image as saved by Save for Web).
    You may have to resort to Scripting for this task … it may need a fairly convoluted approach but I think it has come up before, so someone may be able to help you over at

  • GIF/Save for Web problem (PSE 7)

    I've tried searching for an answer to this problem but nothing seems to address quite what's happening.
    I recently had to replace my laptop, and switched from Windows XP to Windows 7.  I transferred PSE 7 from the old system to the new system, and have had no trouble with it- until now.  I have a 52-layer Photoshop-format image that I would like to save as an animated .gif, with each layer as a different frame.  File >> Save As has the option to save Layers as Frames, but if I check it, then click "Save", nothing happens.  Nothing at all.  On my old system, I'd get a new dialogue with options like quality, duration per frame, loop, etc, but that's not happening anymore, and nothing saves (if I go to find the new .gif file, it's just not there). If I DON'T choose "Layers as Frames", the .gif dialogue comes up just fine, and it has no trouble saving as a static .gif.  But it seems that it's just refusing to save it in animated format.
    I'm having the same issue with "Save For Web".  Neither the file menu option or the keystroke command will bring up the dialogue to let me save it that way.  It thinks for maybe a second, but then doesn't do anything else, and doesn't save the image.
    I've already tried resetting the layout, just in case the dialogue box was shifted somewhere I just wasn't seeing, and I tried resetting the Save For Web preferences, but neither of those things worked.  Any explanation as to why an animated "Layers as Frames" .gif is the only format that isn't saving properly?
    I've also tried opening old animated .gifs that I created with XP, and they will not re-save as animated .gifs either.  I get the "Do you want to save the changes made" dialogue, but clicking "Yes" doesn't do anything and doesn't save the updates.  I'm at a complete loss for why this function no longer works.

    Glad you got it working.
    It takes some getting use to the differences between xp and windows 7
    in regards to permissions and all that stuff. Even when you install
    programs on an administrative account, problems still persist sometimes.
    What i do is always install programs by right clicking on the installer and
    choosing Run as Administrator even when installing on an account with administrative
    permissions. I seem to have less problems doing it that way. Anyway, just something to
    keep in mind for the future.

  • Loss of saturation in Save for Web

    Hi,
    Objects that I export as PNG24 files using Illustrator's "Save for Web" feature result in files that a considerably less saturated than they appear in the Illustrator file (I'm working in RGB).
    What's up? Is there a quick/easy way to make sure the raster files look just as saturated at the Illustrator objects?
    Thanks!

    calibrate and profile your monitor to the Web standard 2.2 gamma, not the Apple default of 1.8.
    create your Web artwork in the sRGB color space (not Adobe RGB)
    Save for Web.
    You may still see some color shift when you save the image with no profile, but the above steps should minimize it.

  • CS5.5 Photoshop Save For Web Error - "cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open"

    I have just started getting this error when I try to "Save for web". I can still do File > Save As... with no problem. Does anybody know what might be causing this?

  • "Save For Web" issues/suggestions

    For the "Save For Web" feature, a few things would be nice to see. Maybe they are there, but I cannot find them.
    1. Actions: When I add the Save For Web to an action, it adds an "export" to the action, but when I automate it, nothing happens, it does not save each file in the folder I specified using the Save For Web parameters I defined. For actions, I have to rely only on a save command, as the "export" command simply does not seem to work for actions I create using that Save for Web feature.  
    2. Prompting: Sometimes, I forget to turn off the feature for creating an html page, or saving in an "image" folder. But I only get the prompt to verify images being replaced. I would like to get a prompt to verify everything: creating an image folder, creating html page, creating new images AND overwriting existing images. That way, I can find out if I forgot to turn off those features, and that I named the slices correctly, and I don't find out that OOPS there is a new image folder I didn't meant to create, and OOPS, it saved all the slices, so I have to go in and delete, delete delete, or OOPS it created a new html page and I have to go delete that.
    3. Save whole image even when there are slices: If I have a PSD file that has slices, I lose the ability to simply save out the whole image, so I can save it as a comp jpg. I can only select slices to export. I would like to be able to save either each slice, or the whole file as an image.

    All good suggestions. I'll forward them on to the team.
