CS5 won't save images- help

I just had photoshop cs5.1 installed, but when I tried to use it, I found that I can't save images using File>Save or Save As. I've tried using the short cut keys, and those don't work either. However, I can save images by closing an image and selecting 'yes' when the prompt for the image saving comes up. This is the only way I can save an image, but it is terribly inefficient. I can open images just fine, and everything else seems to work..
I use photoshop on my acer aspireone netbook, which has windows 7 starter. The netbook itself is new as well. I don't know what might be causing this issue, but I really appreciate for some help!

Other than [temporarily] using a higher resolution or using a larger virtual desktop or something that gives you more than 768 pixels, not that I know of.
It's possible you may be able to find a way to get your display driver to expose resolutions higher than 600 pixels vertically, though I can't guess how good or poor it will look on your display.
It's always been a head shaker why Adobe's software fails in this way, rather than just putting the dialog on the screen and allowing you to use keystrokes to access buttons that may be off-screen. For what it's worth, on my Windows 7 system, the smallest File - Save As dialog is 563 pixels width by 632 pixels height.
Adobe really should put some effort into fixing this.

Firefox won't save images or web pages, even after upgrading, reinstalling and resetting... How do I fix this?

A couple upgrades ago, I noticed that Firefox wouldn't boot properly. According to "Task Mgr.", it would load partially with a "*32" after it's name in the listing, but not enough to display a window on screen. After ending the process, and restarting the program again it would usually boot fully. (not always, but usually) The "*32" confuses me as I run a 64bit Windows 7 system and during installation I was sure that I saw mention of a 64bit program being installed. Apparently, after the last upgrade, that issue was resolved; but Task Mgr. still lists the program with a "*32" after it.
The issue now at hand is that Firefox won't save images online or save web pages. I'll right-click and select "save image as" or "save page as" and... nothing. No box appears prompting me to name a file or designate a location to save that file to. Nor does anything happen when I use the "File" menu for the same function either. This is, to say the least, is very frustrating. There may be other things not functioning that I'm not currently aware of, but I haven't been able to or had time to do a complete check of the functionality of the program. I've never had issues of any significance with Firefox in the past. It's always been very reliable for me, so I'm hoping there's a relatively quick fix that I simply haven't been made aware of yet...
Thank you for your suggestions and time looking into this matter...

It probably will take a little time to work through this troubleshooting article, but hopefully you will get a complete solution: [[What to do if you can't download or save files]].
Regarding the *32, I see the same thing on Win 7 Pro x64. No worries. Firefox for Windows is compiled only as a 32-bit application.

My adobe photoshop extended CS5 won't save as, what should i do?

my adobe photoshop extended CS5 won't save as, what should i do?

Ditto issue, netbook NB200 Toshiba, trying the higher resolution. It is inconceivable to me that a firm of Adobe's reputation would automatically shut-out a very large section of the market place!
Also, it is a surprise with the hundred's of thousands of programs out there in the world that work just fine on netbooks, that they would not Highlight this issue on the download/purchase page (not hidden in technical specs page); and would also not have an installer that "warns" the user of the deficiency in their system at the beginning - with a clear description of what will/won't work!; Especially when upgrading in good faith from a system upon which it does work:(
In this instance, I was able to adjust the Monitor resoltion to 780 vertical (thank goodness it's available on the NB200 system) - and yes it does work...
I would never had realized this if the google'd search did not come up with this forum. What would have happened if I was travelling without internet connection as a photographer/videographer - which is quite often.
Thanks to the forum for the answer/problem/issue!:)

Safari 6.0.5 Mac won't "SAVE IMAGE AS" jpegs from web pages

Hi. Trying to figure out what has changed here.
In the past, when I've located a specific graphic on a web page — say, a .png or .jpg file through a Google image search in Safari — I could right click and choose "SAVE IMAGE AS" and download the image to my desktop.
No more.
Now Safari insists on appending ".webarchive" to the end of the file (for example, "image.jpg.webarchive" or "image.png.webarchive"), but won't let me download it. I tried to "SAVE IMAGE AS" a file called 27.png from a web page, for example, and got this error message:
If I try to remove the ".webarchive" extension, I get this error message:
I used to be able to simply right click an image, select "SAVE IMAGE AS" and save .jpg and .png files to my desktop. It still works that way in Firefox.
I am not looking for workarounds or other ways to do this, as I have spent many years doing it this way and it has become habit; I am trying to find out how I can get the old Safari behavior back. Any ideas on why this behavior changed in Safari and how I can revert?

@andyBall_uk
Inexplicably, it is now working as it should. I don't get it, but I am not going to question it. I tried to figure it out for an hour, then read your reply, did the duck search you linked to and had no trouble "SAVING PICTURE AS" in .jpg form. It now works on the original images I was trying to download as well. I did not close or open Safari, nor did I restart my computer.
I'm just going to go ahead and say that you fixed whatever was wrong. Nice work!

Indesign CS5 won't Save or Save as..

I have recently installed Mac OSX 10.6.3 (snow_leopard) onto my iMac and now for some reason Indesign CS5 will not save or save as.
It allows me to selecteither of them in the menu but nothing happens at all. If i try to close the document after making changes it just closes without asking if i want to save and i lose all the changes.
I have also gone to the extent of doing a clean installation of the OS & CS5 with no difference whatsoever.
Any ideas would be extremely helpful..
Thanks

go back to Replace Your Preferences to get the paths to the folders in your user library, then try moving the entire folders to the desktop and restart ID.
If it's still not working, John Hawkinson has mentioned some other files that seem to be involved when it works in one user and not another, but you'd have to do a search here as I don't know the names and locations for all of them (I'm on Windows). I think he's suggested these at least twice in the last month or so, so they should come up.

CS5 Won't Save All Rendered Media

Working on CS5 - I have produced and saved several projects w/ no issue, but have one that CS5 will not save the rendered media - or should I say some of the rendered media - am I missing a setting somewhere?
Any help would be appreciated.

To get this out of the way quickly, do you have any external HDD's, or networked drives involved?
Good luck,

Scanner won't save images after Mac os 10.9 update OfficeJet J5780

Have spent hours on this! Apple update and complete HP drivers offered through Apple do not fix the problem. CAn't find any fix on HP site, all lead back to apple, which appears to actually be the source of the problem. I can no longer save scanned images to my computer. This is crippling my ability to complete many important tasks. The Officejet has been flawless for years, don't want to buy a new one unless there is truly no fix. Thanks for any help offered.

Hello ashley123,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
When you try to scan with the Officejet J5780 on Mac 10.9 and try to save to image, what happens? If you have already installed the HP printer driver package from Apple, I have a very limited amount of suggestions.
With the said, these are my suggestion;
Reset the printing system, Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system.
Repair disk permissions (ignore the mention of only working on 10.7)
Add the print once again in the Printer and Scanners area from System Preferences.
If this does not allow the scan to save, you would be best to speak with Apple regarding a possible TWAIN issue.
Regards,
JERENDS

InDesign CS5 won't save rotated views as PDF

I'm using InDesign CS5 to create a calendar. I am using rotated view for the spreads. I have page 4-27 I want to send to my client for proofing. I only want the "smallest File" for screen viewing ioption. I've never had a problem creating PDFs. This is the first time using viewer spreads rotated. Wondering if this is creating the problem.
The background task panel has been stuck at 42% for over an hour. InD won't let me quit the save. It won't allow me to close the project window, or Force quit the program.
Assistance needed!!!

Thank you for your reply. I did know about the rotated view not transating in the PDF. I was wondering though if it affected the speed of the PDF creating...undoing the rotation.
I was under a time crunch to send off a proof, so after finally force quitting ID, I saved each spread as a separate PDF and then compiled them into a multi-page PDF. It all went without a hiccup. Possibly if I had restarted my computer, opened ID and prepared the multi-pg PDF at that point, as suggested below, then it may have worked. I will be trying that at some point as I will have more comps to prepare as the project proceeds.
Thank you.

Illustrator CS5 won't save as PDF

My first post.
Running AI CS5.5. All of a sudden, when I "save as" to a pdf file, the pdf content is not saved. Instead, when the file is opened, the actual document says "This is an Adobe Illustrator file that was saved without PDF Content. To place or open the file in other applications, it should be resaved from AI with the "Create PDF Compatible File" option turned on. This option is in the Illustrator Native Format Options dialog bos, which appers when saving an Adobe Illustrator file using the Save As command."
I understand what these directions are saying, and I can do it that way, but the file cannot be opened by someone without AI.
This used to work so easily! Save As, choose pdf in the drop down, it adds .pdf to the file name, done!
Can anyone tell me what made this change? Two days ago it worked fine, and I didn't change anything (knowingly).

Oh, probably just a distiller hiccup. Glad to hear it works now. I have had my share of Adobe background processes problems, too, and I wouldn't have thought to reboot right away either. Make sure to mark this question 'answered' when you get a chance.

Illustrator CS5 won't save pie chart

I created a pie chart in Illustrator 5 using a much-loved Veerle tutorial ... drew a square, entered my data, created pie, applied gradient colors and a 1 pt white stroke between the pieces. Hit save, and got this message: "Can't save the file." That's it. No reason, no funny sequence of numbers and letters denoting an error. Thought maybe my gradients used too large a spectrum of color, but even after I applied plain colors I got, "Can't save the file."
Is this a version 5 glitch, or am I doing something wrong? The workaround was to enter data and create the pie only, then move it to InDesign for the remaining steps. But, if anyone knows why I couldn't save a color pie chart in Illustrator, I'd appreciate knowing, too! Thanks.

I'm having similar problems, and can't seem to find any answers online anywhere - though I am seeing comments elsewhere that indicate I'm not alone. This thread is the closest I've come! I'm hoping somone can shed some light on this. (I am working in CS5 as well)
I've created my pie charts, and then cannot do anything else (except change the data numbers). I would like to do a 3D effect - and can't, all of my menus are grayed out. I couldn't even expand or un-group if I wanted to. I can't copy, paste or delete the charts either.
I've been using illustrator for many years, and haven't come across a problem like this before.

Cheese won't save images

Hi. I really don't understand what's happening. I was using openbox and recently switched to XFCE to try it out, but in either one of those environments, Cheese doesn't seem to save the photos when it snaps them (the same goes with videos also). This is the output from the command line.
** (cheese:4389): WARNING **: Throbber animation not found
** (cheese:4389): WARNING **: Throbber fallback animation not found either
** (cheese:4389): WARNING **: Couldn't load icon: Icon 'image-loading' not present in theme
The first two appear when cheese loads from the terminal, the third only after the picture is snapped.
I already tried loading all the gstreamer packages that I could, if anyone has any ideas or has seen this before, pleease post. I really want to be able to use my webcam.
Thanks in advance,
Chuck

JGC wrote:About those warnings: install gnome-icon-theme, it contains the image-loading icons.
I had the same problem. After installing this package now everything works. It is kind of stupid that it didn't work because of missing icons, isn't it?
So probably the cheese package should have gnome-icon-theme as dependency.

CS5 Won't update images on webpage

I update/alter an image in CS5 (windows XP), upload to site and the old image remains. I know it IS updating because I can swap images around the site that are already on it and those update, but it seems i cannot upload new images. Let me be clear - it IS updating webpages, but I can only move around existing images, not place new ones on.
Is this a cache issue?

Yes, it sounds like a browser cache issue. The browser is showing the old page stored in its memory.
Check the new image has actually been uploaded by going to it directly by typing into the browers url field the absolute path to it.
http://yourDomainName.com/images/nameOfImage.jpg (where 'images' is the name of your folder where you stored the image and 'nameOfImage.jpg' is the name of the image.
If it shows up then your browsers cache needs emptying.

Lion won't mount image - Help Needed

When I try to mount any disk images to install software from the internet. the image mounts but is then automatically unmounted before I can do anything with it.
Tried, Disk Utility repair, tried mounting from Disk Utility directly, tried reinstalling Lion, still doesn't work. Tried downloading different dmg files from different sources, still the same.
Can someone help with a work around.
MacBook Pro 13", Mid 2010, Lion 10.7.2
Many thanks.
Eric

LiquidCD DOES HAVE mount feature, do not know whether uses its independent mount engine or uses sys engine, as attached. Click on its last icon on upper right, then choose image, then mount. Combined with your testing new user, which does not solve the issue, and still waiting with your testing LiquidCD feature, my guess is that you have a corrupt system or ImageMounter was erased or corrupt.
You may test this by an interim solution: install a new system unto an external disk, if available, or unto a 16 GB flash drive (8 GB is not sufficient), and test there. I think you will do that sooner or later anyway, but is a simple test.

HP 6930p won't save Image Safe Data

Same issue as jschmidt
Boot up in maintenance mode and launch zisedit. Then try to set for example the computer name (alt-w). When hit enter to save, the change is gone! Computer name still reports 'not found'.
Anyone know if 6930p has som kind of built-in boot-sector-protection? Been playing around with numerous bios setting, but without success...

CC has Java Script Plug in issues... CS5 won't let me see all my NEF files... help.

In CC I am trying Photoshop (I currently use CS5), and it says it doesn't have the java script plug in... am I supposed to magically pluck it out of thin air to get it? I'm not a computer programmer and I am finding CC to be a maddening experience. CS5 won't let me see all the NEF files I have, and I have a client waiting on the images... RAWRRRR... How can I see this images if CS5 only shows me half of my images, and CC won't even let me open anything, not bridge, not files, nothing... help!
