Save for Web not showing true scale
When I open Save for Web dialog in Illustrator CC 2014 - the drop down says 100% but what I'm seeing on my Mac screen is more like 50% When I click to Preview and it opens fine in browser...
I've got a Macbook Pro Retina hooked to a 27" Mac Thunderbolt screen.
jmcg,
It is just a matter of monitor resolution.
And the fact that Illy counts 1 pixel as 1/72 inch.

Animated Gif - Save for web not showing full frame range
Hey,
I'm trying to export an animated gif with 52 frames - I'm using the timeline in CS6, it's exported correctly in the past but when I try and save for web only a seemingly arbitrary number of rames appear in the animation. With no clear route to rectify this, I've tried to affect the outcome by simply moving things around on the timeline.
I've had a variety of frame ranges (and frames) numbering between 2 and 6 frames, far off my 52 target. It's a simple image and equally simple transition to keep filesize down but I'm completely bamboozled by this. It looks like a bug but any advice I could get would be much appreciated.If it worked in the past with CS6 try resetting your CS6 Photoshop Preferences. If you still have the problem after that. Up load the PSD file to a server and post a link to it.

CS5 Save for web not showing in Name order..Help
Hi
I have noticed today that something has changed.
I am using Photoshop CS 5 on Windows XP Pro.
When saving images for web (for my proofing system i do which is saving photos of cars i.e CAR-10_01, _02 and so on then CAR-22_01, _02 and so on when i get to the part of selecting where to save i notice each time i save photos they are now appearing in the order they are saved as apposed to the order of name of the photo.
I have tried going to the folder and arranging by name it works in the folder fine, I have tried doing that on the small window when saving through PS it shows the files in order by name then but when i go to save the next photo it goes straight back to arranging them by modification which is a pain as certain files in this case care numbers are appearing all jumbled up as apposed to in car number order.
I have tried everything i can think of but it keeps reverting back to showing me them in order of time i have saved the files. Last week it was not doing this and i was seeing them in order of file name.
I hope this makes sense and someone can help me please?
Regards,

Color management in Save for Web not working
The Save for Web dialog box in the CS6 Beta is ignoring color profiles, so color is not managed. This has not been a problem in previous versions.
The saved output is just fine. I was referring to the images in the Save for Web dialogue
I just checked my settings. CS6 apparently changed my Preview setting from "Use Document Profile" to "Monitor Color." It also changed my Metadata setting. It should not do that!
Restoring the correct Preview setting solved the color management problem, but ONLY for the Preview image. The Original image is still not color managed.
I'm on a wide-gamut monitor, so sRGB images come out looking garish if there's no color profile embedded or it's ignored. That's what's happening here with the Original image in Save for Web. I imported an sRGB image with profile embedded, and it looks just fine in Photoshop while editing. Then I went to Save for Web, with the settings Embed Color Profile, Convert to sRGB, and Preview: Use Document Profile. The JPEG preview too looks just fine with these settings, but the Original looks garish, showing a lack of color management. The color in the two views is showing as completely different, though they both represent the same image with the same color profile embedded.
Going back to CS5, the same image is properly color managed in both Original and Preview. Both images show identical color, as they should. -
Save for web not overwriting original files in cs6
It doesn't always happen but when I use save for web to save an image it goes through all the motions as normal but when I go to view the image, I find that it hasn't overwritten the original file. Has anyone else experienced this, it has happened to other people in the studio too so it might be something to do with our setup?
Are you on a mac? If you have a finder window open of the file you are trying to overwrite (or the file is open somewhere else), and it is selected in that window with the preview showing, Save For Web does not overwrite it as it's technically "In Use". Either close the window or deselect the item. This seems to happen to me more when the file is on a server but can also happen on the local disk. I am now in the habit of saving as filename_1 and then renaming them afterwards.
I would imagine you would get a similar story on a Windows machine but I have no way of testing this. -
Slices in Save for Web not highlighting when selected in Photoshop CS5.5
Lately I've just noticed when I select slices in Save for Web the newly selected areas do not highlight in their normal yellow colour. They are however selected and save correctly if I do save them. If I toggle slice visibility off and back on again they selected slices become highlighted but it's kind of a pain. Have I done something to cause this or is this a known issue with one of the updates?

"Save For Web" not remembering save folder
Hi Guys,
I'm using the save for web function to save a large number of files (not batch saving).
Usually, when I open a file and start saving for web, it will remember the folder that I most recently exported to, and by default open that folder for that file, until I "save for web" into a different folder.
Out of seemingly nowhere, the save for web seemed to "forget" this folder (and any other folder I tried to save to), and now defaults to the "Documents" folder, causeing me have to click through to find my intended destination folder.
Any ideas? Google was not a help on this one, I can't seem to find anyone with a similar issue.
I'm on CS5 & Mac running Mountain Lion. On my work computer (exactly the same, Mac + Mountain Lion) I am using CS6 and have not encountered this issue.
- CaitlinCaitlin,
You may try the following (you may have tried/done some of them already) and see whether it helps (the following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file; 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences):
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy);
If nothing else helps, even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall.

CS4 Save For Web not the right size
I'm having problems with Illustrator images when I use the Save For Web. The image size always comes out the same size as my artboard. In other words I set up a new document to be letter size, create my drawing within that document. My drawing is only about 300 px by 150 px. When I Save for Web my image is the same size as the document or artboard not my drawing. Is this something new in CS4? Do I have a preference set incorrectly? The only way I have found to get rid of the background is to adjust the size of the artboard manually. Is there a way to adjust the artboard to fit my drawing automatically, like cropping to an object in Photoshop?
CS,
Basically the same issue was up, and answered, recently here:

14.2.1 update Save for Web not working
Opening up an image I made moments ago through Save for Web dialog (as a normal 'web' 72 dpi image) returns a 300dpi image every time. Not functioning. This happens every time since the update to 14.2.1. I thought it must be me somehow, but it is the software.
I am running 10.8.5 on a 6-core 3.33 GHzYes, I am serious.
When I want to save a JPEG that has a particular ppi value I use File - Save As.
So I ask again: What is your use for your images that you're using Save for Web and care about the ppi? Perhaps there's another way to get what you want rather than through Save For Web.
I'm not being critical - I promise. I just thought maybe I could suggest alternatives.
-Noel
P.S., The ppi normally doesn't matter when images are displayed on the web. HTML usually is used to size images by pixels or points. -
Photoshop CS6 Save for Web not working
I am using photoshop CS6 (cloud) on Mac (10.7.5) and when I use the Save For Web > save, i got the following popup :
---- Adobe Save For Web Error ----
Could not complete this operation. An unknown operating system error has occurred.
I have been using CS6 for months and it worked fine yesterday before shutting done. Today morning at startup it was not working anymore.
I have tried to uninstalled and reinstalled photoshop, clear my presets, shut down/started up, repair disk, repair permissions,... without succes.
The save for web function still works in CS5.
Any help will be very much appreciated,
Raphaël K.I found the solution (took forever to consolidate all the answers) for OS X 10.9 + Maverick. Finally!
1. Change permissions (as AOTPR says) to your User/Library/Preferences file so that your admin and user (the one you are using) has read + write permissions within the Get Info pane (command+I). You may have to add them with the sign.
2. Delete Adobe save for web 12.0 Prefs & Adobe save for web 13.0 Prefs files within the User/ Library/ Preferences folder. These may be hidden for some people, so when in a finder window, hold Option(alt) and click Go from the main top menu (keep holding Option/Alt) and click Library — the full Preferences folder should open for you.
3. Change the view when in Save for web pane in PS. If you have it in Cover Flow — it won't work. Change it to another view like List or Columns view.
Presto! Works for me on Maverick.
Thank god. It took forever to get this cleared up!!

Save for web not working on mac
Hi Everyone,
I am giving photoshop elements 8 a trial but can't get the save for web to work. When I click File -> Save for web it does nothing?
Does anyone have any suggestions why this would be the case?
I downloaded the trial today for Mac and have installed it twice with no joy.
Cheers

To do this, press and hold in the cmd + opt key and go through the menu and click File<Save For Web. A dialog will come up saying something like "Are you sure you want to erase all of the preferences for Save For Web". Click "Yes" to the dialog that comes up.
I just tried this. No dialog box appeared.
I am loading the software onto my MacBook Pro now, which is running 10.6. Hopefully I can use it on that machine, though I do a majority of my work on this one.
eta: The Save for Web dialog is appearing on my MacBook Pro.
Of course, now I can't get the Loop checkbox to toggle, or the Frame Delay to change for the animated GIF I am trying to create. *sigh* Now I shall start searching the forum for a solution to that problem.
OK, I just found this:
Unfortunately this is broken in PSE 6 and PSE 8. You can tab into the frame delay box if you start above it someplace on that side of the screen, and it appears to let you change the rate, but your choice doesn't really affect the actual frame rate. The only workaround is to duplicate frame layers that you want to stay onscreen longer (so it will be changing just as fast, but not visibly).
Seriously? This is the MAIN REASON I bought PSE. To do animated GIFs. I can't believe that Adobe isn't bothering to fix this problem. -
"Save for Web" not working (again)
I have reinstalled Photoshop CC and removed all "save for Web" preference files.
I receive the following error message:
"The operation could not be completed. A file or directory already exists with the same name"
Which file or directory?
Wouldn't it ask if I want to "overwrite" the file?
Running
Photoshop CC 14.2.1 x64
Mac OSX 10.9.2
Before you roll your eyes and say "Watch the video" about removing preferences files - I have done all of that, in addition to reinstalling Photoshop CC twice.
It is the second time this has happened to me in a year. Now Illustrator is also misbehaving when I try to "Save for Web".
"Save for Web" is a really important feature for me - I am a freelancer doing graphics and web.
Anybody have any Ideas? Is this a common problem? Is Adobe working on it? Is it a Mavericks problem?
Thanks...
Nachricht geändert durch arlenesey12Okay for anybody who is interested - the ONLY thing left for me to do - and what I have done - is to create a new User account and copy all my files to the new account.
I did this by copying the files first to the "shared" folder in Users. - not simply by moving them but by copying them - Important!
There was a suggestion somewhere that you could delete the User with the problem, create a user with the same name and then reincorporate the old user data into the new account - this did not work for me.
Removing all the various Preferences mentioned in 3-4 similar posts from people with the same problem did not help.
I even contacted Adobe Customer Assistance (chat), they took over my screen and after trying the above and more, the only thing left that worked was for them to create a new User test account. This worked.
But what a botherto move everything! iTunes, iPhoto, Mail - they all have to be moved in a certain way (do your research).
Another tip - to be safe, I have kept the old account and maintained it as "Administrator" - and changed the password.
My new User (Where I moved my files to and will work out of) is not an Administrator account, and has a totally different password.
I don't believe I was "hacked" - I think a log somewhere got corrupted. -
Illustrator CS2 "Save for Web" not functioning properly.
Illustrator CS2, OS X 10.4.11.
I am creating graphics for the Web with Illustrator CS2. When I go to Save for Web, the Save for Web window opens properly but the original graphics and type (even though the type is converted to outlines), become pixelated therefore my Web images are pixelated.
Attached is an example of a jpeg saved at maximum 100 quality.
I am not umderstanding why my originals become pixelated when doing Save for Web. It used to work until yesterday.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Can anyone help?
Much appreciated and thanks in advance.Mom,
I figured there's nothing wrong with my native file as a co-worker did the same and Save for Web worked.So why is it that when I do Save for Web, the native file pixelates when previewing the "original"?
That's what I can't figure out. One minute it worked fine, the next... bang!
That, and gprobst also being save correctly, imply that there is something wrong with your preferences.
No time to wait for the server. Here is an extract of the most important part:
THE CURE:
Up to Illustrator 10, almost all the preference settings were included in the aiprefs file, and almost all issues with corrupted settings could be solved by deleting or moving it; in some rare cases, moving or deleting the folder holding the settings was required.
From Illustrator CS on, the preference settings have been spread over a number of files/subfolders so in many cases deleting the aiprefs file is not enough: the easy solution is to move the whole folder rather than trying to figure out which file(s) may be corrupted; just deleting the folder without moving it first has proved fruitless in some cases.
Therefore, the cure all consists of the following steps:
1. Close Illustrator.
2. Make a Windows search including hidden files and folders and including subfolders for the folder holding the preference files; the name of the folder depends on the Illustrator version, and the position of the folder depends on the OS version. There is one folder for each version and for each user so it is important to find the relevant one.
Up to version 10, the name of the folder is Adobe Illustrator [X],
From version CS on, the name of the folder is Adobe Illustrator [X] Settings.
[X] is the version number; as standalone versions, CS (Creative Suite) is called 11, CS2 is called 12, and CS3 is called 13, but the version numbers with CS are used in the folder name.
3. Either:
a) Create a subfolder and move all the contents into it; or
b) Move the whole folder to the Desktop.
With both you may recover the contents of the folder by moving it back if the issue is not solved and get your preference settings back.
a) requires creation of the subfolder, but it makes recovery easier, especially if you create a shortcut to the preference settings folder, and you can skip the search if/when corruption occurs again.
You may delete the folder/contents subsequently.
4. If you have Windows Vista, restart Windows. If not, continue to 5 without delay.
5. Restart Illustrator, and see whether the issue is solved. -
Is CS5 Save for Web not 64-bit?
I got a memory warning when trying to do a Save for Web with a 5K image. I was going to reduce it there. Is Save for Web limited to 32-bit RAM addressing?
5k? in resolution? so 5000 pixels high or wide?
If yes, you got this warning in all earlier versions to, as the Save for Web is not intended for these sizes of images. If only 5k file size there is a problem.
