Photoshop wont save actions, I create,

my hard drive was just replaced and the data and applications were all transferred over, now photoshop wont save new actions or presets I create, it says I dont have permission. Not sure what to do, I dont really want to have to reinstall everything if there is a quick fix.

okay so thanks to everyone for your help between this information and some other I found online I got it sorted, my library folder wasnt showing up, I have just also recently upgraded to maverick os, so the library folder show up you need to unhide it, this was a great source telling me how to do that http://www.macworld.com/article/2057221/how-to-view-the-library-folder-in-mavericks.html
then I just went into the user/library/adobe cs5 settings/ and changed the preferences so I was the owner of that folder.

  • Photoshop CS6 Save As PDF Creates Bad PDFs

    I'm on a MacPro using the latest version of Lion, 10.8.3.
    I'm trying to convert my .psd files (CS6 13.0.4 x64) into PDFs with embedded fonts, but if I do a Save As and select Photoshop PDF and then select High Quality Print, the resulting PDF files show text that appears to be partly corrupted, no matter what application I view them in.
    Examples, first the original PSD file:
    And here's how it looks as an exported Photoshop PDF:
    The text that looks normal (starting with Holmes) can be selected, but the rest does not act normal at all.
    Any ideas?

  • Photoshop wont "Save for Web"

    Ever since I installed CC on my vanilla MacMini (Late 2014) running OS X 10.10.1, I haven't been able to use the "Save for Web" feature in Photoshop (2014.2.2 Release, 20141204.r.310 x64) anymore. I keep getting an error message saying "The operation could not be completed. The file or directory could not be found."
    Google and the forums have unfortunately only come up with people having similar problems, but not with any solutions. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I seem to have skipped your earlier response.
    I've been on OS X 10.10.2 for a couple of days now. Pretty much since it was released.
    Here's the contents of my ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 Settings directory:
    Seems like the file is missing and PS can't write in there for one reason or another. These are the permission settings on the folder:
    Turns out, my initial idea wasn't the worst: I now transferred the entire ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 Settings directory from my tmp-admin user to my actual user. Lo and behold – tataaa – sure enough, there was a Save For Web Prefs.psp file in there. And after starting PS, I can now SFW again.
    This issue is worked around, but I am still puzzled and a bit annoyed by the fact, that there doesn't seem to be any real explanation, why on earth that problem happened in the first place and what might still be running differently than it should.
    For reference …
    The contents of the imported settings-directory (permissions: drwxr-xr-x   20 r8r  staff) look as follows:
    The contents of the original directory (permissions: drwxrwxr-x  17 r8r  staff) like this:
    Beats me.
    Anyways – thanks a lot for the assistance, and if you have any further ideas on how to get to the root of the problem, I'd be happy to hear about it!

  • Photoshop wont install Unable to create symlink at ....

    So I just bought the creative cloud license and was trying to install photoshop but every time I try I get this error message
    This is what it says:

    It appears your account, with which you were installing Photoshop, did not have permission to create a shortcut in your Start Menu.
    Is your user account a member of the Administrators group?
    Can you try downloading the Adobe installer, then start it via Run as administrator?  Maybe use a different browser?
    Wow, how I hate Windows UAC.  All it ever seems to do is to protect your computer from you being able to use it.  And it's frowned upon to teach people to disable it.

  • Photoshop wont save files

    Photoshop elements 7 will not save edited files 90% of the times I try, regardless of the file-type I try to save as. Once I get to the savescreen it seems normal, but I cannot get any further and nothing happens, so I have to exit, shutdown and try again.
    Would appreciate any advice!

  • Is there a way to create a contact box on photoshop and save as PDF?

    Can someone explain how or where to find a tutorial to create a contact box on photoshop then save as a pdf? Thank you!

    Contact box? Your question is not clear perhaps if there was one and only one standard contact box on planet Earth there would probably be more the one correct answer to you question.  Please describe what your desired in the PDF file. If you want something that can be filled in like a contact form you may need to use a different Adobe product like Acrobat. Or something to create an HTML Page with a contact form.

  • How to create save actions in SQL Developer 1.5?

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a save action in SQL Developer, which shall execute "an external tool" I already added.
    I choose "Code-Editor" -> "save actions". I want to add an action, but there are 3 predefined actions and there is no possibility for me to add another. Is there a way for me to add a save action, as it is possible in eclipse?
    What I am trying to do is, I want to trigger an external sql formatter. The sql formatter, which is built in, doesn't fit my needs and the way I can configure it, is very sparse. Therefore I want to use an external tool do to this - and I want it to be executed after saving the document.

  • Photoshop touch unable to save projects or create foldersI

    i am unable to save projects or create folders in Photoshop Touch on my iPad Air 2. I have lots of space available and have closed all other apps. The PS Touch app is updated to most recent release.
    After working on a file and then selecting the back arrow at the top left to take me out of the project, it prompts me to save the project. When I select "save" it appears to save the project. Then it goes out to the main screen where no projects exist so basically I keep losing any project I work on.
    On the main screen, I'm also unable to create any folders. It seems that I'm creating a folder but then when I return to the main screen, nothing is there. I have tried to search the iPad storage to see if anything is being saved by PS Touch, but I see nothing.
    I have tried restarting everything as well as re-installing the app, but still I get nothing.
    Obviously this app is useless to me without being able to save anything so I realize I may have wasted my money. I'd appreciate any suggestions.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the suggestion, however, i have tried it before (and tried again after your suggestion just in case) and still no luck.
    It always appears to be saving the file and then when i get to the home screen (where i should see all the folders and projects) i see nothing still.

  • How do I save my setup for Photoshop Elements 11 that I created for category - sub-category - Keyword Tags

    how do I save my setup for Photoshop Elements 11 that I created for category - sub-category - Keyword Tags  I would like to use the setup for other Photoshop Elements

    First are you going to use the same keyword/categories hierarchy in the same Elements version (or newer)? If so, using the backup/restore process will also restore your hierarchy.
    If you want to create the same hierarchy in an older Elements version, it's possible to save that hierarchy in a special text file and to restore it in the new catalog in the destination computer. It's also possible to restore it in another catalog in the same computer.
    Look at the title bar of the keywords panel. Next to the '+' sign on the right, you see a small icon which opens a menu offering the option to save or to restore the text file.

  • Image wont save as it looks in photoshop.

    I'm a pretty amateur user of photoshop, but I've been having this problem with an image I'm working on; it wont save as it looks in photoshop.
    Basically, this is what I'm looking at when the psd file is open in Photoshop:
    This is how I would like the image to look when I save it. However, when I save it as a JPEG (or any other format for that matter) it looks like this:
    The saved image is a JPEG file with a resolution of 500x500, the image I'm working with in photoshop has an image size of 7000x7000. Also, the image seems to produce different results when saved at different resolutions. It's very confusing.
    Here is my layers also:
    I am also using a Halftone filter set to subtract on this image, giving the image the lines across the image (shown here as layer 1).
    Anyone have any idea why this is happening and/or what I'm doing wrong?

    There's no reason an image should be downsampled upon saving (from 7000 to 500 pixels), unless you specifically tell it to using the Image Size dialog. The only exception I can think of is if you use Save For Web, which has a number of default settings you should keep an eye on. But a 7000 pixel image has no business on the web anyway (that's w a y too big).
    Resampling will obviously affect an image like this (with the line screen) in a number of ways. You should only work on this at the final intended pixel size.

  • Help!!! Flash CS3 and CS4 wont save .gifs

    Ok, so im trying to save my project as a .gif and it just wont save it right, it marks as if it has already been saved, but when i open the .gif it just displays the first frame.......any help?

    Those links, did helped me, but that didnt correct the problems that i was getting.
    Here is the thing, at least this is how it worked for me.
    I was editing the original picture on fireworks, and saw that instead of layers, it was creating bitmap images, saved it as fireworks pdn and imported to flash, and when i finish it didnt save the gif.
    I instead opened the original on photoshop, and it created layers instead bitmap, saved it as a photoshop image, opened it on flash, worked on it, and well, guess what??? it did saved it as a gif!!!!!
    So wierd, but, why won't it save it from the fireworks one into a gif, and the photoshop one worked good? 
    It didnt helped me alot mate, but i still thank you for reading this post bro, thanks, and have a nice day ^_^

  • How Do I Locate An Action I Created In CS5?

    Hello Folks,
    How do I locate and action that I created in CS5, so I can load it into CS6?
    I am running CS5 and 6 using Mac OSX Snow Leopard
    I crearted two actions, but am now not sure where they reside, to load them into CS6
    Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
    Jim

    Thanks for the helpful reply.
    Yes, I do still have CS5 installed an intact. I have launched it and I can find my actions within the action pane, and run them on a loaded image.
    When I click on either of my two actions, they attempt to run, without and image loaded and run with an image loaded. When I click on the fly out menu
    to try and save either of them, "save action" is greyed out.
    I've looked in every Adobe/Photoshop folder I can think of but can't seem to find either of them. I've also tried to use a spotlight search to locate them, but no luck.

    In any event, have you tried nuking Photoshop prefs?
    To re-create the preferences files for Photoshop, start the application while holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS). Then, click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?"
    Note: If this process doesn't work for you while you're using a wireless (Bluetooth) keyboard, attach a wired keyboard and retry.
    Important: If you re-create the preferences by manually deleting the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings file, make sure that you only delete that file. If you delete the entire settings folder, you also delete any unsaved actions or presets.
    Reinstalling Photoshop does not remove the preferences file. Before reinstalling Photoshop, re-create your preferences.
    NEW Video! Julieanne Kost created a video that takes you through two ways of resetting your Photoshop preferences. The manual preference file removal method is between 0:00 - 5:05. The keyboard shortcut method is between 5:05 - 8:18. The video is located here:
