Save for web return an unknown error!! Please help

Whenever I press "save" on the save for web GUI this comes up. http://prntscr.com/4gpseu I really don't know what to do. I need to save a small animation (3 frames) as a gif. I'm on Windows 7 32 bit with Photoshop CC 2014.

You can use either AVI or MOV but MOV will give you a bit of lossless compression (small file size reduction over uncompressed AVI).
What I mean by lossless is try exporting to MOV, in the video settings set the codec to "Animation", keep the colors at RGB (Millions) or if you need alpha then RGB+Alpha (Millions+). Keep the quality set all the way to the highest. Then go in audio settings and choose anything you like. Export the movie.
Now take the very large MOV file it made into Adobe Media Encoder. Once it's imported, choose a preset (H.264, etc) and choose your desired compression settings. You will see there are a lot more compression settings. Also set your audio options. Then when you're done customizing your preset just click the green start icon and let AME compress your high quality source to a much smaller file size.
Just clarifying, after you import your video in AME and you choose your preset you have to click the presets orangeish hypertext to customize the presets settings. It will not overwrite that preset so don't worry about what you change. Pay special attention to the bottom of the custom settings panel because it lets you see the output file size. Adjust your quality controls until you hit the file size you want (both video and audio). You also have a preview panel so you can see the output at any part of the timeline using those settings.

Version 2014.1.0 - save for web returns error: the system cannot find the path specified. Help?

I'm on PC (yah, yah, I know)
When I click "save for web" I get the following error:
The operation could not be completed.
The system cannot find the path specified.
I thought I could repair Photoshop, but the 2014 version doesn't seem to have that option in the control panel's Programs and Features - only uninstall. The Cloud doesn't seem to have a "reinstall" option that I can see.I'd hate to have to redownload the whole thing and start over, but I suppose I may have to.
Any ideas?

Save for Web stopped saving @ 72 dpi. Help, please!

I am running Photoshop CS6 on Windows 7. I had two prior installations of photoshop on my system due to upgrades, so finally decided to unistall CS3 but kept CS5 just in case. Now for whatever reason, CS6 goes through the motions of the Save for Web dialog but doesn't change the resolution of the outputted file to 72 dpi. It keeps it at 300. It had been working perfectly until now. I went back in and tried it in CS5 and that still works fine. Any ideas? I'm getting so frustrated! Is there a setting somewhere that I messed up?
Thanks in advance!

DPI is irrelevant unless you're printing. It's the number of pixels in the image which counts.
More pixels = bigger filesize.
On the web 100px x 100px is always the same size on screen (regardless of DPI which only comes into play when printing).
See if this helps

Illustrator CS4 - when I save for web my vectors are pixelated. Help!

I recently updated to CS4 (I know, I'm still behind the times) but ever since when I 'save for web' my vectors appear pixelated. It seems worse when I want a transparent background. My images are for web and this just won't do.
I've read a lot on this and can't seem to fix my problem, but here is what I have tried: Anti-Alias is checked, view > pixel preview, view > overprint preview, object > rasterize, and probably a few other things. If anyone can help me with this issue it would be GREATLY appreciated!! I've attached an image so you can see what I'm talking about. I created this schematic in Illustrator CS4 and saved for web with a transparent background and, as you can see, it appears pixelated everywhere.

I'm not sure what you're looking for but here is my save for web options. Let me know if you're looking for something else. And thank you for trying to help!!

IPTC issues with Save for Web

I have images with the copyright notice field, copyright status, provider and source fields filled in.
When I do a save for web, I'm trying to adjust the IPTC data that gets saved but nothing I do seems to work. On thumbnails, I don't need any of that data but I can't get it removed. No matter what I select, there's always stuff in the copyright notice field.
Similarly, if I try to simply change the copyright status field and leave everything else as is, I usually lose (data gets wiped out) provider and source and I get extra data put into the copyright URL field which wasn't there before.
I also get the file data cannot be read error when opening up these files sometimes because photoshops seems to mess up how it writes the IPTC data. Image data seems file, it's only when photoshop fills in the copyright url with the same data from the copyright notice without asking me.
In CS2, I had to use ImageReady because it would wipe out all the data and then I just used iView to easily put back in the 3 fields I was using. Now that IR is gone, I figure I need to migrate this to CS3 but no matter what combination of options I select, it seems metadata handling is horribly inconsistent.
Can anyone tell me how it works? I've tried making a script step to set the data I want, I've tried working with an image with the fields the way I want them and then doing the save for web so it records the data I want, I've tried both with and without the include XMP option but I can't seem to get anything to work properly.
Edit: Didn't make it clear but I'm trying to record a batch action where I scale images to 6 different sizes and then do a save for web at each size.
Please help.
Thanks

Depending on your use of the image in context, won't the transparent strip "disappear?"
The only solution I know is to open it in Photoshop and manually crop out the transparent strip. AI or Save for Web also seems to antialias the edge of free-standing art over a transparent background. I just make the artwork slightly larger than the final cropped size, save for web, then crop in Photoshop.

Save for Web causes error in PSE7

Hi, When I click on Save for Web I get the error message shown below. I have PSE7 and windows 7. I've tried the usual things like deleting the settings file. I have also re-installed the application, however I used the control panel uninstall and then just reinstalled, should I have deleted left over folders etc and may be registry entries. I have also tried the compatibility options in windows 7. No luck!
Has anyone come across this before, any advice would be well received.
Thanks

Please try allocation more RAM and disk space to PSE. Might be some issue with the same. This kb article should help you there http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/856/cpsid_85658.html
Not sure but try with admin user also if logged in user on your machine is not admin.
Also try deleting the preferences file for Save for Web and relaunch PSE C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Save For Web PSE
Let me know your comments.

Adobe Save for Web Error for CS6

Hi there, For some time on one of the new iMac's in our office when I am in Photoshop CS6 and I go to save a .jpg as a .png and I use the option "Save for Web" I get the error message "Could not complete this operation. An unknown operating system error has occurred" - See screenshot at http://grab.by/ynVQ How do I resolve this issue? It does not happen on our other exact same computer here.

I have 200gb available on my hard drive as well. I am also experiencing the same issue. Plenty of RAM, plenty of hard drive space. I'm getting more an more of the not enough scratch disk errors, even though I've got 2 scratch disks on separate volumes. I know the files I'm working on a pretty large, but normally I'm saving web versions from print resolution files. Photoshop should handle it. Older versions on slower machines would. I'm sure the error is something else, even though it's telling me that there is not enough room.
For me it appears it's only with the preview though.

Error - PS CS5 can't save for web

When trying to save for web (ctrl+alt+shift+S or file save for web) I recieve this error
What is the fix?

Hi there.
I just read and tried the answers above and it worked pefectly.
I have Windows Vista x32
Go to Start and instead of selecting a program .... Type in regedit
A window will appear - make sure that under USER SHELL FOLDERS your PERSONAL FILE has the following path; %USERPROFILE%\Documents
if not double click the folder - and add the path. (mine was showing C:\ )
Close down Photoshop and restart - open a file and then select Save for Web and it should work ... it did for me. (yeah! Thanks to everyone for the help above!)

"The operation could not be completed" when doing Save for web

Hi
I have just installed Photoshop CS5.1 on my new iMac with Mac OS 10.7 (Lion). Everytime I try to do a 'Save for web' I get this error message "The operation could not be completed". After that Photoshop also hangs. I've tried many solutions offered in forums and the like, but nothing helps. I am getting quite desperate...Anybody?

I found out the following:
When I write in Terminal:
sudo chmod -R u+w ~/Library/Preferences
sudo chmod -R u+rw ~/Library/Application\ Support
The error message disappears, until I do a restart of the computer. Then the error is back.
My suspiscion is that the error came up after moving files from my old computer to my new one.
It happened even before I installed Lion...
So now I'm thinking of doing a complete new install on Lion, not an upgrade and then install Photoshop again. But I am not really looking forward to this :-(

Save for web gif loop settings not working

Photoshop CC 2014 Mac Pro 10.8.5
When I change looping settings from "once" to "forever" when saving a gif it only loops once. I tried multiple times. In the end what got it to work was changing looping back and fourth from "once" to "forever" over and over and over until randomly the preview started looping. At that point when I saved it worked correctly.

I’m not really sure; it could be a Mac problem.
This is the Adobe statement on Lion:
Mac OS 10.7 has some exciting new features such as Autosave, Restore, Versioning, Full Screen Mode, and more multi-touch gestures. For Adobe applications to fully support these features, additional product development is required. Adobe is working to address this issue.
There is one other thing you could try. Open a photo in the Editor and then hold down the Cmd+Opt+Shift Keys and press the letter S
It’s also possible to delete the save for web preferences and then re-start the program to re-build them. This involves holding down Cmd+Opt keys and clicking Save for Web under the File menu. However this may not be possible if save for web is grayed out.
Please let us know if you get it fixed.

Photoshop save for web unknown error

Hi,
I am trying to save my .avi file to animated gif using photoshop save for web option, but i am getting a unknown save for web error. The .avi file is around 1.5 gb. tried to save the file with Photoshop CC and Photoshop CC 2014. My os is Windows 8.1 and i have 8 gb of RAM.
Other details:
Document size : 1800x1200
.avi Frame rate: 50 fps
Please help me

What are the pixel dimensions and the length of the spot?
Can you break up the clip into smaller elements?
I suspect you may be trying to use a file format that is not a good fit for the task.
Why do you want to use gif?
