Adobe Save for Web Error - Could not complete this operation, An unknown error has occurred.

I can't create a .gif and everytime I do get that error above.
Is there anyway I fix this?

I found the solution (took forever to consolidate all the answers) for OS X 10.9 + Maverick. Finally!
1. Change permissions (as AOTPR says) to your User/Library/Preferences file so that your admin and user (the one you are using) has read + write permissions within the Get Info pane (command+I). You may have to add them with the sign.
2. Delete Adobe save for web 12.0 Prefs & Adobe save for web 13.0 Prefs files within the User/ Library/ Preferences folder. These may be hidden for some people, so when in a finder window, hold Option(alt) and click Go from the main top menu (keep holding Option/Alt) and click Library — the full Preferences folder should open for you.
3. Change the view when in Save for web pane in PS. If you have it in Cover Flow — it won't work. Change it to another view like List or Columns view.
Presto! Works for me on Maverick.
Thank god. It took forever to get this cleared up!!

  • Layer Comps To Files - Export error: Could not complete this operation. There are no user slices

    I have been using the Export Layer Comps To Files scrips that ships with Adobe Photoshop CS5 for a while and found it very useful, apart from the numbers it automatically adds as a prefix to the layercomp name.
    A friend pointed me in the direction of a altered version of this scrips which removes the numbers and only exports the layer comp name, gerat I thought. Not great! After using this successfully for a while the scrip started to throw up errors whenever I attempted to export. Either "No layer comps found" or "Adobe Save for Web & Devices Error: Could not complete this operation. There are no user slices." As I knew there were layercomps for the first error and knew that I had not created any slices for the second error I was pretty miffed. Fortunately I had the foresight to make a copy of the original script from the Photoshop presets library.
    I have since deleted the offending script out of my presets folder and copied the original script back in however the error still persists. I constantly receive Adobe Save for Web & Devices Error: Could not complete this operation. There are no user slices. I have searched the forums and around the net to try and find a solution for this problem but none seem to present themselves. I am perplex how this error can persist when the original script is now being used.
    If there's is anyone out there who can help me resolve this I'd be most grateful. As I say I've tried to resolve this myself and am pretty computer savvy but this one has defeated me
    Thanks in advance

    The problem seems to be already solved, but I'm commenting this for future reference.
    This has happened to me too and I think I know what causes it.
    It happens when you...
    1) Do "Save for Web" with the "All User Slices" selected in the dropdown menu "Slices".
    (This can only be done with a file that has a user slice)
    2) Then try to use the "Layer Comp to Files" script to a file that doesn't have any slices.
    To avoid this you need to once open a file that "has" a user slice and save with
    the "All Slices" option in the "Slices" menu and then go back to the file you want
    to run the script to.
    When you run the script, the saved "Slices" option from the previous export seems to
    be used and causes an error when there are no user slice.
    I also found a fix to the script to avoid this error to come out.
    This can be also applied to the fix to "remove the numbers" added to the head of the
    exported file names.
    The number removal script goes something like this...
    var fileNameBody = exportInfo.fileNamePrefix;
    if (fileNameBody != "") fileNameBody += "_";
    fileNameBody += compRef.name;
    this should replace the "Layer Comps to Files.jsx" lines 188-190.
    In addition to that, the script below needs to be added below line 818 and line 863.
    (This line numbers are those before any alterations to the "Layer Comps to Files.jsx" script)
    var idSWsl = charIDToTypeID( "SWsl" );
    var idSTsl = charIDToTypeID( "STsl" );
    var idSLAl = charIDToTypeID( "SLAl" );
    desc4.putEnumerated( idSWsl, idSTsl, idSLAl );
    The line right above where the above script should be inserted should read as the following...
    desc4.putPath( id44, new File( exportInfo.destination + "/" + fileNameBody + ".png") );
    Actually it can be added any where after the "desc4" variable is declared but I specified just
    to make it simple.
    This sets the "Save for Web" "Slices" settings to "All User Slices".

    Hi ,all
    I am beginner for windows 8 app development.
    I created simple project on domain name called www.aaa.com and also hosted web services on same domain. at that time i was able to access web services on my application code using AJAX. Then i created same project on another domain called www.bbb.com then

    File: default.html". I tried some thing on both end on web services project as well as windows 8 app.
    AT app side in package.appxmanifest file i added below code.
    <Capabilities>
        <Capability Name="privateNetworkClientServer" />
        <Capability Name="internetClient" />
      </Capabilities>
    AT web services side in web.config file i added following settings.

    </html>
    so is there any help. I am eagerly waiting for it.
    P.S I am accessing www.aaa.com web services using VPN.
    Thanks in advance,
    Hardik

    In that case, I recommend that you collect a Network trace using a tool such as Microsoft Network Monitor or Wireshark to understand what IP Address is the connection being made to. The 0x2efd error correlates to the WinINet error: ERROR_INTERNET_CANNOT_CONNECT
    meaning that the connection with the remote server cannot be established. When you collect a network trace, try looking for the TCP-SYN signal and see whether your remote server responds with a SYN-ACK.

  • Flash export MOV could not complete because of an unknown error. Please help.

    This problem has come up in the forum a few times and no solutions are given.  Hope you can help.
    I am running Flash Pro CS6 and want to export a MOV file.  The export seems to work as it should until after building the audio track, and then I get an error:
    Could not complete the operation because of an unknown error. 
    My settings are:
    Quicktime is H.264, frame rate: current, quality: high, multi-pass: yes
    Audio: MPEG-4, AAC, 44.1 KHz, 16-bit mono
    Stop exporting after time elapsed

    You can use either AVI or MOV but MOV will give you a bit of lossless compression (small file size reduction over uncompressed AVI).
    What I mean by lossless is try exporting to MOV, in the video settings set the codec to "Animation", keep the colors at RGB (Millions) or if you need alpha then RGB+Alpha (Millions+). Keep the quality set all the way to the highest. Then go in audio settings and choose anything you like. Export the movie.
    Now take the very large MOV file it made into Adobe Media Encoder. Once it's imported, choose a preset (H.264, etc) and choose your desired compression settings. You will see there are a lot more compression settings. Also set your audio options. Then when you're done customizing your preset just click the green start icon and let AME compress your high quality source to a much smaller file size.
    Just clarifying, after you import your video in AME and you choose your preset you have to click the presets orangeish hypertext to customize the presets settings. It will not overwrite that preset so don't worry about what you change. Pay special attention to the bottom of the custom settings panel because it lets you see the output file size. Adjust your quality controls until you hit the file size you want (both video and audio). You also have a preview panel so you can see the output at any part of the timeline using those settings.

  • Install Xcode: We could not complete your purchase. Unknown Error.

    After I upgrade the system to Mavericks, I remove the Xcode.
    Then when I use the terminal, the system prompt saying whether to Get Xcode or Get Command Line Tools or something like that. (because I am using git)
    Now I want to install the new version of Xcode, but MAS says: "We could not complete your purchase. Unknown Error."
    I've tried all solutions out there can be found, like:
    1. sign out/back the account
    2. remove app store cookies
    3. delete the app store cache
    4. delete the /var/folders
    Nothing works.
    I doubt it has something to do with the already working Command Line Tools. But I cannot find this can uninstall it since it is installed alone without Xcode.
    Please help.

  • Could not complete this operation the. File was not found.

    I am running Illustrator CS6 on a Mac version 10.9.1. My problem is that when I try to "Save for Web" I get an error message of:
    "Could not complete this operation the. File was not found."
    What is it even talking about?!? It can save it normally, but not as a .jpg, .png, etc.
    I just restarted the program (but this isn't the first time I received this error). Now it says something new:
    Some names of the files being saved contain non-Latic characters. These file names will be incompatible with some Web browsers and servers.
    I simply named the file "6.png"
    That time it did allow me to save though. What is going on!??

  • We Could not complete your request, an unknown error occurred(2001).

    Please help! I have had this problem multiple times and itunes support has always been able to help correct the problem, but now that my ipod is out of the one year warrenty period, they suddenly don't know what to do and blame it on windows vista and norton antivirus programs(SHOCKING!)I can get to the I tunes store and browse music, but when I attempt to purchase a song, it takes me to the terms of aggreement page and once I agree, it takes me to another error page. I also cannot view my account and get the 2001 error message when I try to authorize my computer. I have checked and double checked all of my firewall setings, internet settings, security settings, etc.. I even completely removed all noroton security programs from my computer. WHen I run a diagnostics test it states that I am connected to the internet and the store as well and that all is well, but alas, I still cannot download songs. I am no computer genuis and therefore would appriciate any advice! I have not been able to get any new tunes for almost a week now and am very unhappy with this situation!!! HELP!!!!

    I am having the same issues but I have McAfee. I use to be able to download music with no issue and then recently I cannot download anything. Everything comes up error -50. I also disable all firewalls and check all connectivity but nothing they suggest works??? Any suggestions or a better site to buy music from?

  • Illustrator cs6 error message of   Could not complete this operation. There are no user slices

    i am using a mac OS 10.8. was slicing a document and saved the slices. works great. now i am trying to save a totally different document in which i am not using any slices and i am getting an error message.
    how do if fix this. it's a real pain in the ***.

    I had same issue today.
    Here was my solution, which does not seem obvious, but resolved.
    When I experienced the error in a new document, I realized that I changed my settings to PNG vs JPEG in the PREVIOUSLY used document and did indeed change "ALL SLICES" to "ALL USER SLICES".
    Since this document, when saving as a JPEG or PNG automatically defaulted in the background to the "ALL USER SLICES" it couldn't find them..... there were no slices, it was just ONE ART BOARD without any slices.
    I opened up the PRIOR DOCUMENT. Saved again and changed "ALL USER SLICES" back to "ALL SLICES". Saved. Closed.
    Then opened up my CURRENT document that I experienced the error and WHALLAH it worked.
    Even though the document said "ALL SLICES" all along, in the background there was a brief ADOBE GLITCH remembering the previous documents settings. It happens. Resolved.  

  • The plugin could not complete because of an unknown error

    I keep getting this error message ever since yesterday using AI CS4. On Friday it was working fine, opened it up yesterday and this happened. It happens when I select certain tools such as rectangle (or any shape tool), magic wand and you cannot use the tool. Happens also with both new documents and existing files -  Once the error pops up, you click ok and it pops up again...and again, every time you move the curser (only way I've found to stop that is to move the curser up to the top of the page and press enter then select a different tool. How do I get rid of this and get my tools working again?
    Thanks in Advance!

    Pokie,
    For sudden strange cases, you may look at this general list (5) is hardly relevant in this case):
    You may try the following (you may have tried/done some of them already) and see whether it helps (the following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file; 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences):
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder Other options (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC, and reinstall.
