Photoshop CS6 saves the JPGs smaller than they appear in Photoshop...

Photoshop CS6 saves the jpgs smaller than they appear in Photoshop...
If I change a file in Photoshop to 72 dpi and scale it down to approximately 1-2 MB,
it is after saving as a JPG half the size than it was showed in Photoshop (350KB).
WHY?
I have the operating system OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 on my Macbook.
Can someone help me please???

Jpeg is a lossy compression format. 1-2 MB is the uncompressed size.
What is lossless and lossy compression? - Definition from WhatIs.com
You can better see the effect in File > Save for Web. You can move the slider from 100% and see the effect on file size.

    Adobe now hides the editor - what looks like it is not - you want the editor hidden in the support folder - see http://forums.adobe.com/message/3955558#3955558 for details

    After changing my graphic card to an ASUS Strix GT 970, Photoshop opens the JPG files without show them on the screen

    Try turning off GPU support in your Photoshop's preferences performance section.  Also check that you have installed the latest device driver installed for your GT 970 adapter and that all CS6 updates are installed... Your CS6 should be version 13.0.1.3....

    When I go to buy my Mac at the Apple Store, can they program Adobe Photoshop CS6 on it while I am there?

    The online Apple store may offer to pre-load a version of CS6 for you, for the cost of the software package plus a few days set-up delay in shipping your Mac to you.
    The bricks and mortar stores do not sell software. It gets stale too fast.

  • Photoshop CC displays images 25% smaller than other apps?

    Why is Photoshop CC displaying images 25% smaller than my other applications? If I open a 72 ppi square pixel aspect image in Photoshop, I have to zoom to 125% for it to be the same size on screen as in my browser or any other image viewer. Photoshop reads the correct pixel sizes, but displays it smaller.
    I design and build websites and have been using Photoshop for over 15 years and haven't noticed this until CC. If I save the images and build out the site, or even just drag the image into a browser and then overlay that browser window above the Photoshop window to see both images side by side, I can clearly see a 25% difference in size.
    If I zoom in Photoshop to 125%, then the sizes match. So, the problem is when designing a website, everything looks smaller in photoshop. Then when I build it out, everything is way too big.
    My browsers are definitely at 100% zoom and I can open the image in any other image viewer at 100% and the affect is the same.
    Is there a setting that can be adjusted in Photoshop to correct this?

    I also have the same issue. I can reporoduce exactly what Roger2012Jr mentions above.
    I have Photoshop CC, Windows 8.1, screen resolution 1920 x 1080. Files look really sharp in Photoshop, but when the file is exported (for web or not) the image is blurry and about 125% the size it was in Photoshop. Also, when I bring an image from the web, tried with a random image it still looks perfectly sharp in Photoshop, just about 80% actual size. That same image exported still looks perfect in the browser, same as it was originally.
    So starting from scratch with an image, there's no way to guarantee the quality when exported and quality looks really blurry. I can't use the program with any sense of confidence.
    Can someone from Adobe shed any light on this?

  • Why is using Photoshop CS6 as the touchup image editor for Acrobat still a complete failure?

    Image objects in pdfs are losing their positional and other parameters when saved after editing with Photoshop CS6(ONLY).  The problem was acknowledged on the Photoshop forum three months ago, but they said it was up to the Acrobat folks to fix it.  When using most previous versions of Photoshop (CS2-CS5 all tested) as the touchup image editor, Acrobat was able to place the image right back into it's previous position in the pdf and it could  do this without releasing whatever path was used to crop or mask the image (basically it worked great).  However, using Photoshop CS6 as the touchup image editor is still a complete failure.  Any idea when or if this will be fixed?
    Thanks

    The Photoshop 13.0.1 Update fixes this issue.  Excellent.

  • Photoshop CS6 Save For Web UI extra border Bug

    Last week we finally got upgraded to CS6, and I'm dissapointed to see the visual defect I reported in CS5.5 still exists in Photoshop CS6 Save for Web. The details and screenshots are all the same as in my previous thread. http://forums.adobe.com/message/3843054#3843054
    Isn't there a way to fix this?  I rely on PhotoShop to be pixel perfect, not to add extra distracting lines and borders to my work.

    FYI, just to test I just did a crop of an image, then screen grabbed the result.
    To ensure the edge is visible, I changed the workspace background from the dark gray I usually use to a lighter gray...  Here's the pertinent part of the workspace...
    A closeup of the upper-right corner:
    Notably, I don't see any black line around it like you showed.  This leads me to wonder whether I interpreted your screen grab properly...

    I am trying to re-install Photoshop CS6. The files have downloaded but I get and error message that the Adobe Support Advisor is required to determine what the installation probIem is. I click on the link that says "get the Support Advisor here only to be told the Support Advisor no longer exists!! A blind loop. I need to have Photoshop CS6 installed...what do I do from here??

    The CC Cleaner Tool assumes the Akamai Download Manager is activated and it has not. It seems to be the missing file that triggers the error message. \in a previous re-install I was prompted to download & install the Akamai Download Manger, but not this time. Is there somewhere on the Adobe website that I can download it??

  • Photoshop CS6 and the iMac

    Hello,
    I use Photoshop CS6 on a 2009 MacBook Pro and it runs great. I have 8GB of RAM
    I am going to be purchasing a 27" iMac soon, but i have heard there are a lot of problems with Photoshop and Mavericks working together.
    I am a computer novice so i am wondering if i should wait to get the iMac or if with a new machine and a new version of Photoshop CS6 i will be able to use Photoshop CS6 on the new iMac without any issues.
    Please let me know your thoughts.
    Thanks so much,
    rick

    Photoshop CS6 is compatible with OS X Mavericks, but it is true that there are issues. See > https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5475799
    As you can see, there are tricks that have worked for some users, so it is up to you to wait or to get the iMac now. Adobe may release Photoshop CS6 updates in the future to make it work better in Mavericks

  • How to uninstall Photoshop CS6 when the "Adobe Installers" is missing from the Application/Utilities/.......(missing Adobe Installers)"?

    I  recently had all of our information from an older iMac transferred to a new iMac (transfer done through the Mac store).  Now when I try to open up Photoshop CS6 from the dock, get a response that says  :Configuration Error  and below that  "Error: 16".   It also says to uninstall Photoshop and then to  re-install it.  The problem is that somewhere in the past, the Adobe Installer was deleted, so am unable to continue with the process- so am unable to uninstall.  Appreciate any help.  Have not had any problems prior to this. 

    I do not own a Mac and never have so I have little to offer in the way of how get something uninstalled on one.  If the Cleaner did not recognize that you have CS6 installed there are two things I could think of that I would consider - 1) just try reinstalling CS6  2) just delete anything you can find relative to CS6 and try reinstalling it.  The second is option is the least recommended from my standpoint since I do not know what the impact might be, but I don't think trying the first would hurt much... it might just get the installer in place and then provide you with the ability to uninstall.

  • I cannot download Photoshop CS6 from the cloud

    I had a beta version of Photoshop CS6 on my Macbook (OS X 10.7.4) and forgot to uninstall it before downloading Photoshop CS6 through the Adobe Application Manager. When I tried to download Photoshop CS6 I received an error message in the Adobe Application Manager that read "A beta version of this product exists on the computer. Please quit and uninstall that version before continuing."
    I clicked 'Cancel' then quit the Application manager and uninstalled the beta version that I had. I also used spotlight to find any other files that went with the beta verision I had and then trashed all of the files, emptied the trash and restarted my computer.
    After doing all of that I've tried numerous times to download Photoshop CS6 but I keep getting the error message that I still have a beta version of Photoshop CS6 installed.
    I've searched my computer and cannot find any files that pertain to that beta application.
    I don't know what else to do and I REALLY need Photoshop CS6 asap.
    I'm not having any issues downloading the other CS6 applications through the App Manager, only Photoshop, which is the most iportnat program I need.

    Nevermind!
    I just found out about the 'Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool' and downloaded it and ran the tool. Thankfully it found a driver for Photoshop CS6 (beta) that was stilled installed on my computer. I was able to uninstall the driver and trash it. Right now Photoshop seems to be downloading successfully from the App manager. Keeping my fingers crossed that I don't run into any other issues!
    If anyone else is running into a similar issue that I was having download the 'Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool' and run it on your computer.

  • I just downloaded Photoshop CS6 from the Adobe website and I didn't get a serial number.

    I just downloaded Photoshop CS6 from the Adobe website and I didn't get a serial number. Where can I get one? Must I buy a product that was free to download?

    Yes, to get a serial number requires that you purchase the software.  Downloads are almost always free but to have continuous use of a product requires buying a license for it.
