CS5.1 Save for Web & Devices not responding

I was turning a mov. file into a gif. When I was finished I went to save for web & devices and after it finished loading... the gif couldn't be seen but a coral pink box took the space. Then I get a message stateing that Adobe CS5.1 is not responding... Then it closes down the program. I'm able to make other gifs. Even ones with more frames.They all turn out to be fine. It's just this certain one I try to make that always ends up closeing down the program. The file size is 248MB and the gif I'm trying to make only needs 91 frames. I'm so confused. I even used the same mov. file and made a different gif from it and it worked perfectly! I've tried reinstalling but that didn't fix anything.
So hopefully someone out here will have some helpful information on how to fix this. Thanks!

What dimensions does the image have?
And what does
I was turning a mov. file into a gif.
mean exactly?

Save For Web & Devices Not Responding

Hi there, I am quite new to Photoshop so please be gentle
I have created a multi layer image that is at 8bits per channel and when I go to Save For Web & Devices it brings up the display showing me the optimized version ... I then click on SAVE and it brings up the save dialog but everything is grayed out and I can not click on anything. I can click on CANCEL on the previous window and this hides the Save Dialog (but doesn't actually close it)
Please help on this as it has totally confused me

I have been able to SFW a few times but only on new images. The one I am trying to save was copied over from a PC (in fact any file that was previously on a Windows PC)
I have trashed the prefs and it is still the same. I have even re-installed again to no effect. Thanks for the continued help on this

CS5 ''Save For Web & Devices'' Help

Hello
This is my 1st post on this forum, Hope its in the proper place
When i'm finished processing images on CS5 i click on ''Save For Web & Devices'' to save it & also to remove the EXIF image info, As of late though it has not been removing the info from the image when i click save. Anyone had any issues with this before, Any help on this issue would be great
Thank you

EXIF is a file format used by digital cameras to store metadata associated with an image.
This metadata can be any of several things:
date/time
f-stop
shutter speed
camera make/model
lens make/model
GPS location
Some photo libraries (such as Flikr) will display the EXIF data alongside the photo.

Save for web & devices not working (CS4)

I noticed today that I can't save for web & devices any more. when I try it shuts down the program and gives me the following message to send a crash report:
Adobe has detected that the application Adobe Illustrator CS4 has unexpectedly quit.
this started as a Photoshop CS4 problem where I also can't save for web & devices any more. before people jump down my throat again for mentioning this Photoshop problem on the Illustrator forum - this is for context only. I have the same problem in both applications. I just include this information here in case it helps. the Photoshop message I get is:
The operation can not be completed.
savign for web & devices worked totally fine up till last night in Photoshop. haven't saved anything out of Illustrator for web & devices in a while but it used to work just fine.
I have a PC and use Windows 7. All my Adobe products are up-to-date.
Any help is much appreciated. Thx a lot!

thank you very much. at least it happened before. I was seriously doubting myself. tried trashing preference files multiple times, but that didn't help. will reinstall everything and see if that does the trick.
thanks again!

Photoshop CS5 Save for Web & Devices

In "Save for Web & Devices", the buttons are cut off at the bottom :\ is there a way to fix this? Here's a screenshot.
click to view full size. As you can see, they're pretty hard to click, though not impossible...

You probably need to use a higher screen resolution.
1024x768 or higher.
You could also try to resize the save for web dialog by using
the lower right corner to resize.

Save for Web & Devices Not working

I am in the middle of creating a new web page using CS5 - sliced the components of the page and saved via Web and Devices as an html page.
Now when I want to go and save an ordinary jpg to post on my blog,via Web and Devices it only gives me the option of saving as an html file and there are no options to save as jpg or any other format.
Any clues as to how to reset the Save for Web and Devices setting so I can save in any other format other than html?

Save For Web & Devices not available

I have a flattened psd file that I want to save as a jpg, optimized for web. But this option is greyed out. Is there something else I need to do to be able to save a psd in this mode?

Thanks! That was it. I am a bit rusty with PS.

CS5 Photoshop - Adobe Save for Web & Devices Error

Hi folks,
I know similar threads exists, but this one is different. For some reason, out of the blue, I can't use 'Save for Web' anymore. When I choose 'save for web', it opens the preview dialog nicely, up until I save & get this error:
"Adobe Save for Web & Devices Error
Could not complete this operation. An unknown operating system error has occurred."
Cleared all my settings, and the error remains.
I uninstalled PS CS5, installed it again... still get this error.
Hope someone knows how to fix it!
Tx!
MacBookPro3,1, running all the latest updates (OSX 10.6.4), CS5 Master Collection.
Luckily still have CS4 Master Collection installed (and Flash CS3).
(I've just got to get this off my chest, CS5 has so much issues that I stopped using it, I'm not getting paid for playing crashtestdummie. Please don't rush any future CS collections and try fixing bugs instead. )

Hi Wade,
Tx, but 99% of my time, I work on my local system (scratch disk also). Already had problems working with the company's network (files get locked or corrupted while trying to save), so we've learned the hard way not to use the network.
I guess that's somewhat expected if you work with a Mac, in a professional Windows environment.
Meanwhile, I'm a step closer in finding a solution myself. A colleague gave me a great tip, if you create an extra user account on the system, you start with a clean library. On my second account, PS CS5 is working just fine. So clearly, something went wrong in my library. Maybe permissions like you've said. At this point, I could try to fix it by copying files from the one user to the other. But I would like to wait for that connect session so they can see what's wrong.

Save for web & Devices CS5 32bit Version

When trying to Save for web & Devices I get this error:
Could not complete this operation. An unknown error has occurred.
If I click on the Device Central button I get this message:
Adobe Device Central CS3 is not installed or its installation is damaged. Please install or repair.
I’m running Windows 7/64bit, Home Premium, CS5 trial. This only happens running the 32 bit version of CS5 it works for the 64 bit version.
No other version of Photoshop are installed on the PC. I have no other version to install.
Does anyone know a solution to this problem?
Thanks
Tom

Save for Web & Devices 2-up view not appearing side by side

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me with this issue. In Photoshop CS4, when I used to go to the Save for Web & Devices screen, I liked using the 2-up view so I could see the difference between my original and the optimized versions. However, I've tried doing this in CS4 now and I remember seeing (in CS3 I believe) where the layout of the 2-up view was side by side (vertically) so you could have the original on the left and the optimized on the right. Now, in CS4, at least on my machine (mac OSX tiger), the 2-up view only displays the original and optimized horizontally (with the original on top and the optimized below). Is this a fixed layout for the 2-up view or can this be changed? Is this normal is something corrupted? I've looked everywhere for a button or setting to click (that I could think of) and have not been able to find a place where the layout setting can be changed. I know it's a very small issue for most people, but I really preferred viewing the two versions side by side vertically instead of one on top of the other. I'm assuming that this is just a setting somewhere that the user could change but I don't know - perhaps this interface update is new to CS4 and is not customizable?
Anyone have any information or solutions to this?

Thanks so much...that was so easy, but I don't think I would ever have found it!
It works now, I just resized the window and it's now side by side...funny how this was not described in the help file when I looked it up!
Thanks again.

Save for Web & Devices, The operation could not be completed

I keep getting this error when I Save for Web & Devices: The operation could not be completed.
I have saved for the web before for many more complex, larger images without a hitch.
I am using a psd format with an image that I designed. It is no more complex than others I have done. It is small, just a horizontal navbar about the size of the one on Apple's website.
I tried exporting it, flattening it, slicing it removing the slices.
I think it is a problem with the application itself.
I have tried repairing my permissions, restarting, and holding Cmd, Opt, Control, Shift during PS startup to reset the settings. Any insight would be appreciated.

Is CS5 Save for Web not 64-bit?

I got a memory warning when trying to do a Save for Web with a 5K image. I was going to reduce it there. Is Save for Web limited to 32-bit RAM addressing?

5k? in resolution? so 5000 pixels high or wide?
If yes, you got this warning in all earlier versions to, as the Save for Web is not intended for these sizes of images. If only 5k file size there is a problem.

Save for web & devices has stopped working in (CS5) ?

In save for web & devices, you alter the size, and select size, but it doesn't change it. It used to work okay.
The only option I have is to change the image size under usual image size.

my os is windows 7. elements 12 worked fine for many months then save for the web stopped working

Save for Web & Devices window doesn't fit @ 1366 x 768

I'm using a MacBook Air running at 1366 x 768, or within Adobe CS5 requirement tolerances, but whenever I try to 'Save for Web & Devices', the dialogue box that pops up is much too big, vertically speaking, for my screen. Attempting to minimize/maximize doesn't rectify the problem--a substantial portion of the window, including the buttons necessary to execute the save action, are in the not-visible portion of the window. If I hit ENTER/RETURN, I can complete the process, but this is clearly a bug: I should be able to resize the window, or scroll within it.
Is there something else I can do, short of pursue a fix from Adobe? Some setting I've overlooked? I'm running Lion, but this problem started on a Snow Leopard install.

Wrong! Yes, you do have to hide the Dock if you want to share the Adobe Photoshop minimum required space with Apple's Dock, which in my opinion should be invisible when not needed, which in turn is for a split second every half hour or more. I'm sick and tired of Apple shoving ugly, intrusive OS features down our throats (see footnote * in next paragraph). I want the computer to do what I want, not what Apple wants.

My experience over the years has shown me consistently that the more vocal or vehement the complaint, vent or rant, the greater the likelihood of PEBKAC (google that if you're not familiar with the term).

Save for web & devices troubles

Ive created a mini animation where by the eyes change colour.
I click on save for web & devices and it takes a while to come up.
When it does the image is pink until i move it around.
Then when i got to save it either crashes or goes to the save screen where i can click save but most of the time the save button does not work.
When it does work i get a blank black box that does not render and then the program stops responding.
What should i do?

Im trying to save it as a GIF because its an animation.
Its 8 bit. Basically whenever i try to save it the program stops responding and when it responds again i get a pop up box that you can see right through to the other side. Theres nothing in it.
Ive checked where it would save the file afterwards but nothing is there.
