Save as JPEG not avail?

Hey guys.
I'm working on a project that won't let me export as JPEG. Puzzled, I opened a new file with the same settings and it wouldn't let me export as JPEG. I tried to save the new project blank and with a simple layer with a color on it and no dice. I opened a previous (older) project with similar settings and it would let me export as JPEG. I can't figure out what gives. On top of that photoshop is running very slow. I have a great comp (4GB RAM, 750 HD with lots of space, never hooked up to the net, etc), but it suddenly acts funny with photoshop.
Any advice?
Current project specs:
Custom project
Size 4" x 4"
Res: 300 Pixels/inch
cmyk color
16 bit
transparent background
11.0M project size
color profile: U.S. web coated (swop) v2
Aspect ratio: square

First duplicate image and convert the new file to 8bit then File -> Save As, then put a check in the box "As A Copy" in the Save Options lower down in the window.
Now when you click on the down arrow, for the extension, JPEG should be one of the choices. After saving a "copy" of your (flattens automatically) image, you can then save the original as a PSD with all your layers still active.

Save command currently not available

Hi
I have created a Photoshop plugin and it was working fine..Now suddenly I am facing an issue..On execution, I am getting an error "Save Command is currently not available". I have not changed anything in code. I am not able to trace the reason.
Earlier I thought that it is space issue and I vacated memory in my system. But no luck.
Please guide.
Thanks

Something has changed in my functions for doing batch actions in Bridge. In CS5 Bridge I try to do a simple batch action of saving a DNG file as a jpg and closing the file. When I attempt this I get a message saying 'The command "Save" is currently not available.
Batch using tools menu from Bridge to reach Photoshop should work as expected in both CS4 and CS5. If not then there is something wrong on either your system or install.
Go to Bridge CS5 preference and look for the section Start Up Scripts and see if there is still a Start Up Script for Photoshop CS5 present and with a checkmark in front for activation. If not try first to restart bridge holding down option key and choose refresh preferences. This should retrieve the original Start Up scripts again.
If your command save as is not available check the action and see what the save path for that acton is. If it is a copied action from an other system changes are that it still contains the save path for the old drive and if the script can't find it it provides a warning message.
Also check if the drive you save to has both read and write permission.

Mac mail 5.1 "save as" option not available

Mac mail working fine until I upgraded to Lion. Now, the "save as" option is suddenly grayed out and not available. I need to be able to save drafts of emails. Others are experiencing the same issue. Please, Apple, what's up?

Mac -- When in Mail, bring down the FILE menu to PRINT. You should get this a pane that looks like this one below. Make sure you have the SCALE box set to 100%.

PS won't let me save because "Disk not Available"

This is the second time this has happened. Customer help had me delete a file in the library but I can't remember which file. Can anyone help me?

If it is the scratch disk full, you may try to delete .tmp / edit/purge/all. Or assign a scratch disk with enough space--if that's what you mean. But if it is disk not available, it's because of the disk permission? On mac, choose the scratch disk you want, press command I-> Sharing &Permission-> Ignore ownership on this volume. (IF that is the boot drive, ignore this suggestion. Don't do it.)

Save As function not available in the Print Module

Out of nowhere, the 'Save As' function isn't available in the Print Module. I have updated to 4.4, restarted Lightroom, etc. I can still export the images, just not save as a jpg. Can you help?

kwhitworth7,
There never was a <Save As> function in Lr, not in the Print Module and not anywhere else. Not in Lr1, Lr2, Lr3 or Lr4.
Lr does not do <Save As>. Lr works with a database, called the catalog, and every step done in Lr is automatically and instantly saved in the catalog. There is no need for a <Save As> - there is not even the possibility of a <Save As>.
<Save As> means that you save the image file itself (under a new name). Lr does not save anything in the image file (except xmp data and you cannot save the xmp under a new name). This is simply not possible.
What is possible - as the previous posters have pointed out - that you create a <Saved Print> in the Print Module. This saves the print in the catalog and adds it to a Collection.
It is also possible that you save your print as a JPG. To do this select <JPEG File> in the <Print Module / Print Job panel (right side) / Print To> (you have to click on the small double-triangle, see screen shot:
Then click on <Print to File ...>. You then get a dialog box (which is part of your OS) where you select a location for the JPG-file and indeed you have to give this file a name.
And, yes, that is a "save-function".
Are you saying that when you click on <Print to File ...> nothing happens?

"save as jpeg" not working for only certain images (pse 2.0)

I've searched for hours, trying to figure this issue out, but there seems to be no answers to my particular perdiciment. So I guess I'll start a new discussion with hopes to find any answer that can lead me in the right direction. For some reason, I am now getting a program error when I try to save some images as jpegs. It seems that only a small percentage of my pics are having this issue, and they are the ones I have taken in the past two days. I can go back into my catalog and run any other pics through PSE and save as a jpeg with no problems. But if I try to do any touch ups on any of the pics from yesterday or the day before, i get the error message. I can even go back into lightroom 4 and export any pics from 3 days ago and have no issues saving them as jpegs. I always get the option to save as a jpeg, it just errors out while trying to save. I'm using a somewhat older laptop w/ vista 64 bit. If anyone can help me out I would greatly appreciate it. If you need any more info, just let me know and I'll try to reply as fast as I can.
Thanks in advance!

I just saw the end of your subject: Are you really using Photoshop Elements 2?
If you Save As – A Copy and use a different name does the save work?
Is there some background process that is analyzing the original files, either a system-cloud backup or a PSE photo analysis for heads or other things, that might have the file momentarily in use and therefore be unwritable?
Is your system almost out of memory, or is the hard-drive almost full or does the hard-drive have errors, or is the destination hard-drive something across a network or USB connection and that connection is iffy?

SAVE AS is not available for existing documents?

When I open a document to edit, even if it's been sent to me by email, I can't find the Save As functionality. So if I email a document from my iPad to my iMac (the only way I have managed to transfer without plugging in) it lives in the email - and when I open it to try to save it to the relevant folder, I only get Save a Version option. So it saves it back to my email, which is not where I want it. The only option seems to be to open Finder and then drag the document from the email to the finder folder.
I have checked preferences, and don't think I have anything incorrectly ticked.
Also, as I progress I often like to call my versions by different numbers, so that I can always go back to a previous version. How would I do that if I can't ever Save As?
I would love some support - this is my first Mac for a long time, and whilst I love it for its design, I am getting frustrated with some of the functionality.

Dera Peggy,
I have just grabbed this screen capture, I hope it is clear how I have it setup. It works and was shown to me in my Joint Ventures company training session at our Cabot Circus Store in Bristol by Joshua who is the training leader in the store.
I guess that I am suffering from coffee deprevation because I read you response as being very confrontational and agressive, I am sure you did not mean it to come across as such?
Anyhow give it a poke and see what happens....
If you have a way of remote connecting to my machine I will show you that it is exactly as I stated.
Regards,
Pete

How can I save a page and all its component parts in a single file, like IE does as an MHT - it's much easier for mailing to people where page address not available?? (as in output from an airline booking site, for example)

how can I save a page and all its component parts in a single file, like IE does as an MHT?
It's much easier for mailing to people where page address not available?? (as in output from an airline booking site, for example)
It is simply too painful to have to zip everything up into a single file to send. MHT format has been available for years now from IE, and with every new FF release it's the first thing I look for. I have been using FF for years, and hate having to come out of it, over into IE |(which I even took out of startup) and key everything in again, in order to send somebody something in a convenient format that they can open with a single click.
I can't believe this hasn't been asked before, so have you looked at it and rejected it? Have MS kept the file format secret?
Thanks
MG

This is not really an answer just my comments on your question.
I am sure I recollect efforts being made to get mhtml to work with FF.
Probably the important thing to remember about .mhtml is that if other browsers do support it they may need addons, and may not necessarily render the content correctly/consistently.
There are FF addons designed for archiving webpages, you could try them, but that then assumes the recipient has the same software.
You could simply save the page from FF to your XP pc; then offline open it with and save it using IE, before then emailing using FF, and attaching the .mht or mhtml file that you have now created on your PC.
As an alternative method, in some cases it could be worth considering taking a screen grab of the required page, then sending that to the recipient as a single email attatchment using either a bitmap or jpeg file format for instance.
Something such as an airline booking may be designed with a print option, possibly it could be worthwile looking at sending the print file itself as an email attachment.

Scanner not available, OR scan will not save to file

Hello, HP M1212nf, using HP Director/HP Scan 1.1, on an iMac running OS 10.6.8.
On the control panel, the Ready light is on, the Attention light is off, and the Toner light is blinking.
I try to scan a document, but get "the scanner is not available" message. USB connections are good...
Occasionally, it does scan successfully. But then when I try to save it as a file, all steps work beautifully -- PDF/JPEG/etc, name file, choose destination -- but the supposedly saved file is nowhere to be found. (Spotlight doesn't see it, and it's certainly not in the destination I chose.)
What's going on, and how do I fix it?!
Thanks in advance for help!

I have enough potatoes and carrots, thanks... ;-)
Thanks ever so much for your perseverance in helping me with this!!!

The config pages print beautifully, although the toner light (yellow) is flashing.
> When you get this error message, are you still able to print?
> Is there any lights flashing on the printer before trying to scan?
The scanning problems (not being able to save to file, and sometimes, “scanner not available”) are not affecting printing. The print function works beautifully, even though the machine seems to think its toner level is low (flashing yellow light).

Printer was connected through a power bar. I changed it, straight into wall socket.
I do have another USB cable, have replaced the one I was using with the other one.
Same problem persists: “save as PDF” refuses to work: the file seems to disappear, and Spotlight doesn’t find it anywhere.
The only work-around I have found is to choose “e-mail” instead— this puts the PDF into an e-mail, from where I can move it to where I need it. This solves the problem, sort of, but it’s a tedious long way around.

It’s called Print and Fax on mine.

OK, all done. Closing SysPrefs and trying again.
Behaviour is largely the same. Two issues:
1- Now and then I get “scanner not available” message. Turning off the printer and quitting HP Director, then turning printer back on and restarting HP Director, usually gets past this “unavailable” issue— it scans successfully. Sometimes it takes more than one off/on quit/restart cycle to banish the “unavailable" message. This is not a faulty cable or connection issue. What the *$%^%# is it?!
2- scanned file won’t save— BUT here’s some progress: if I save under a different name, like “test”, there’s no problem. If I save under the name I want, which for the current page is “Arrival Va 1/2”, it disappears instead of saving. Could my problem be this simple: In the "save as file" dialogue box, I’m not allowed to use a symbol like “/“ as part of the file name?????
If that’s it, I can work around it, just saving the file and changing the name afterward.
I hate to think, after all this hair-pulling (and I don’t have that much to start with), it might be as simple as that!!
But it seems to be: saving as “Arrival Va 1/2” doesn't work, but saving as “Arrival Va 1 2” does.
Even if that’s it, I’d still much appreciate your thoughts on the “not available” messages...
Again, a million and a half thanks!!

Save PDF to folder as JPEG - NOT WORKING!

Please help me, after many failed attempts to save my aperture book design as PDF to folder as JPEG, I decided to try to save PDF to folder as TIFF. Unbelievably it worked without error. This proved to me that I am doing everything right, there must be a problem with the save as JPEG option. I am trying to save this way so that I can take my design to a different album vendor other than apple. The closest I came to having the JPEG option work was it saved only a small handful of the page files, not all of them. ANY advice will be appreciated. Thanks.

I just tried the Save PDF to folder as JPEG and everything worked correctly. This workflow is actually an Apple Automator action, so you could go to Root/Library/PDF Services and open the workflow in Automator and look to see if somehow the action is messed up.
Maybe worth the try.

On right mouse click, there is no "save as" or "copy image" when I want to save a pictureon line. I have to go back to IE to access this option. Is this not available? Many thanks, Joy

There are so many occasions on line when I want to save an image that I can't believe I can't do so using Firefox, which I find so good in all other ways. I can Bookmark, save a page or send a link, but not take a simple copy image.

Hi, Many thanks for replying, it's much appreciated. I started Firefox in safe mode and found I had the full right click menu on a pic on my home page. However, after moving around the web, I've found that the problem still occurs in eBay and it doesn't make any difference in safe mode. still no full menu. After returning to normal mode, I find that this still stands i.e. I do get the full menu on other sites but not in eBay. As I often want to save a pic in Ebay and can do so in IE, I'm baffled as to why this one site is giving problems. As this is where I've mostly been trying to save pics, I didn't realise that it was a "one site" problem and not applicable to everywhere else. If IE didn't work in this respect, I could blame the eBay site, but it does, so that just makes it more puzzling - and very annoying! I have tried accessing Ebay direct, rather than clicking on the toolbar, but this makes no difference. Any further thoughts would be much appreciated. Joy

Where does iWeb save the contents of my website now that iDisk is not available?

With the latest change to iCloud and iDisk not available anymore, where does iWeb save the contents of websites?
I looked for the files undel Library/Application Support/....but could not find the iWeb folder.
Any ideas please?
Thank you.

In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

iPhoto should be still in your Applications folder and will still work. But if you failed to keep it up to date then Try Terence's instructions here Is Iphoto gone ?i want it back!
