Error - When saving for web & devices

HELP, when I go to save a file for Web & Devices I am getting an error message It just started happening and it happens every time. Here is the message:
"Image exceeds the size Save for Web was designed for. You may experience out of memory errors and slow performance. Are you sure you want to continue?"
It doesn't matter how big/small the file size is. If I drag the file into Photoshop and try from there it works perfectly.
I am running leopard on a 17" MacBook Pro
2.33 ghz Intel Core Duo
160 gb hard drive
2 gb ram
60 gb free space
Any ideas???
Thanks, I am desperate.

Write permission error when Save for Web & Devices

I'm using PS5.1. When I try to Save for Web & Devices I'm getting write permission errors. I haven't used this application for over a year, but it used to work fine. I'm not sure what changed.
I also used the Mac Disk Utility to Repair Permisions, but that didn't help.
Please help.
Thanks!

The problem could be related to Mavericks permission problems. You can try the Bridge fix:
Open Finder > (go) Computer > Macintosh HD (for me) > Users > Click once on the Home icon (main admin) > Get Info >
click on lock and authorise bottom right > click on cog wheel drop down > click on 'Apply to enclosed items' > OK

Strange white lines sometimes occur when saving 'for web and devices' in Illustrator?

Hi
Strange white lines sometimes occur across my documents, when saving 'for web and devices' in Illustrator CS5 (on the right side of the black logo below). Does anyone know how to avoid this please??
Thank you so much.

LSM,

Grainy text when saved for web

Why do graphics with text and/or images in Fireworks CS5 become more grainy or blury when saved/exported for web use? Compared to results in Photoshop, text, image and graphic rendering when saved for web in Fireworks is lower quality or poor (grainy and blurry). Why?! Should I not use Fireworks and only use Photoshop CS5? Isn't Fireworks designed for creating web graphics? If so, what am I missing? Any help would be appreciated.

Yeah, I'd encourage you to use whatever works for your situation.
I should have asked you to include a screenshot of your original for comparison. I do see obvious JPEG artifacting around the letters as well as the images; this graphic has a lot of flat color, which would prompt me to try saving it as a GIF or PNG-8 (or even a PNG) instead of a JPEG.
The cover images do look quite blurry, but I suspect they must look blurry in your original as well. Incidentally, if you saved these graphics as symbols, you could resize them multiple times in your layout without losing any quality—kind of like Smart Objects in Photoshop. (I'm assuming they might have been larger initially?) Also, you could check your Preferences to see what Interpolation method is being used when resizing. This could impact the appearance of the cover images, if they are being resized.
Text rendering is tricky at small sizes. Making a seemingly minor adjustment to the pixel size can have an impact on how the text is rendered at this small of a size, depending on the font. As far as anti-aliasing goes, System Anti-Alias can be a good choice, sometimes; you might also explore the Custom Anti-Alias option. You might also have smoother results if you create the layout at twice the size (or more) initially—a display font will look better when rendered with more pixels—and then output it at half size.
An interesting thing about Photoshop: If you zoom in to the highest setting, you can use the arrow keys to create subtle adjustments to the text rendering, depending on what kind of aliasing you've applied.

Photoshop crashes when saving for web and devices

When hitting saving for web and devices, Photoshop starts to render images but before it's done, it crashes. I get an error-popup with no text and the screen where normally the animation is shown is red. Then Windows comes with a crash report and I can only quit Photoshop.
I have an animation of over 150 frames, but just some black and white lines, no color.
I'm using Photoshop CS 5.5 on Win7.
I tried deleting the preferences in AppData/Roaming etc, but no result, still crashes.
My Photoshop is also updated to the latest version.
Help?

Ok, here's a crash report from Windows (not sure which I should post so just gonna post them both..)

Saving for Web & Devices Spacing Error

I'm currently saving this photoshop page for Web & Devices to import into Dreamweaver and I'm running into this error. See images below:
Here's how my website is supposed to look and how I designed it:
and when I preview in browser and zoom in or out (in this case out), this happens:
Can anyone tell me why this is happening and what I might be able to do to prevent this from happening? Quite irritating!
Thanks!

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!

Losing quality when saving for web after using Multiply

I have a normal photograph, with a red layer on top set to Multiply/Darken. When I save it for web, regardless of what pixel size, or what uploader I use the quality is terrible.
Have tried uploading to different services, from difference devices with the same issue, so assume it's a colour profile thing.
Any help appreciated.
Image shows the difference in quality compared to normal.

DPI is pixel size and images are not displayed on screens with the pixels sized as specified in images resolution setting. The images pixels are displayed on displays with pixels the size the display is run with. So web images display on display, display with different sizes and resolution depending on the users display device.
Images saved for web display should be saved with sRGB colors for many image viewers are not color managed and assume web images have sRGB colors.
So you images will display differently on different displays and no matter how you save them colors will vary displays may not be calibrated all displays do not have the same color capabilities.
The best you can do is calibrate your display and save them with sRGB colors jpeg or png files that display well and look good on your calibrated display.
Most desktop displays are 100DPI resolution displays where newer tablets and laptop have high resolution displays 200 to 300DPI. Even new Desktop 4k display have lower resolution. I believe the highest resolution 4K display in production is the Dell 24: display . Its resolution is 185DPI. Out of production is IBM's old 4K display which had a 204DPI resolution.

What is the best way to keep high res when saving "for web"

the files i'm saving for web so i can get them in jpg (or gif) format are coming out very pixelated. this is when i print the image.
what is the best way to save for web an image and keep the resolution good.
using for a business card template. avery template will let me attach images i want to the project. to do this.. i "get file from computer" and it drops the image in but real small... then you are supposed to enlarge it onto your work however you want. well when i enlarge this image file, it gets pixelated badly. i'm thinking it's the way i'm saving it. i do not adjust anything when i save. maybe i should. this is where i need guidance.
this is what avery template notes about the images i am allowed to use - When uploading the image, the maximum size allowed is 4 MB. You can only upload JPG and PNG images either as RGB or CMYK. so when you recommend things, can you please keep this in mind
thank you for oyur time.

Aida,
When you save with the default template using save for web it is generally a very low settings.
While in the save window you can define the pixel size of the image you want with quality as well as resolution too.
Refer to tv.adobe.com video save for web or Adobe help file for detailed instructions.

Strange quality issues when saving for web and devices.

Im a UI designer and spend lots of time working with illustrator and photohop. When I design I normally create vector mockps of my work and then export slices using artboards and save for web and devices. Yesterday Illustrator started having problems exporting files. The files look good on my computer, when viewed with pixel preview mode but when i export they look really bad. here is an example:
This is a screen shot of a part of a mobile app im working on at 100 % and 200 %
here is the same area when exported using "save for web and devices" at 100% and 200%:
as you can see there is a dramatic loss in quality. the icons look almost like a low color gif...
Here is what I have tried already:
I have tried changing the settings in the exporter. I normally use png 24 but I have tried all the different settings and they all do about the same thing. the only one that seems to look ok are swf and svg.
I have copied my files over to photoshop and exported from there. that works fine but it is a pain.
any help would be great.

Hello, what is the size of the TIF? Do you really want to use an uncompressed format for using on a website?

When saving for web in cs5, I get slices saved. How can I change this preset?

Since I started using photoshop cs5, every time I save for the web, I get slices saved, what's annoying about this is the fact that instead of getting the images or slices in this case, saved in the folder I select, it'll automatically create an image folder and then I have to go over the folder and rearange all the images again, it's really time consuming.
Is there a way to avoid this, so that when I select the slices I want to save, they'll go directly to the folder I want instead of having an extra images folder created within my folder...
Thank you

In the save for web dialog under output settings>saving files, uncheck
Put images in folder.
