Save to web not working

Newbie here! I'll have a photo opened in E7 Edit and when I click on" Save For Web"  nothing happens.  Thanks for any help.

Try resetting your "Save For Web Preferences".
Open a file...any file blank or otherwise. If on a PC, press and hold in the Ctrl + alt key. While holding in the Ctrl + alt keys, go to the menu bar and select File<Save For Web. A dialog will come up asking, "Are you sure you want to erase all preferences for Save for Web?"...click yes.
If on a mac, same instructions except I believe the keys used will be Command + Option.
If the a reset of "Save For Web Preference doesn't do the trick, the next step would be to reset the application preference files.
On a PC, Press and hold in Ctrl+Alt+Shift immediately after (or while) launching Photoshop Elements. A dialog will ask if you want to delete the user preference files. Click Yes. If you did not get a dialog asking if you want to delete preference files and the program loads as usual, you did not grab those three keys fast enough.
If on a Mac, use the same instructions as above except use Command+Option+Shift keys.

  • 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

    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.

  • 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!!

  • Action & Droplet "save as" vs "save as web" not working - Possible bug?

    Before I state the issue, I am running the latest updates and have tried this in Photoshop CS4 & CS5.
    I believe this is a bug in Photoshop, unless someone can get this Action & droplet to work right.
    Here's the issue:
    I create an Action with the "Save as Web & Devices" and save the image as a PNG. Then create a Droplet and set the destination as "Folder" with a destination different from the source file, and check Override Action "Save As" Commands and use File Naming with Document Name + _H50 + extension (example: MyFile_H50.gif). The file naming convention I made doesn't carry over to the processed images.
    However this droplet will work with the Action when I use the "Save As" command, but not the "save as web & devices" option. Has anyone came across this issue or know how to fix it?
    The difference between "save as" and "Save as web" is a 3kb files size plus the "_H50" naming convention is not used.
    Here's a detailed process of my action and creation of the droplet:
    CREATION OF ACTION:
    1.) I have a .TGA file open with alpha channel layer.
    2.) I set the selection to the alpha channel, go back to the layers panel, double click layer, Set backgound to Layer 0, Inverse the selection, delete the background, trim image to transparent pixels, change image size to a fixed height of 50 pixels.
    Here's the variable step that works or doesn't work depending if I choose "Save as" or "Save as Web & Devices"
    3.) File > "Save as Web & Devices", save image as PNG w/ alpha, and select my "processed images" folder & save, close original  image without saving.
    CREATION OF DROPLET:
    1.) Save droplet location, Play action with include subfolders, Suppress file open options dialog, Suppress Color profile warnings.
    2.) Destination: Select a folder
    3.) Use File Naming: Document Name + _H50 + extension
    4.) Save log errors.
    Next I drag some images onto the droplet, it processes the images into the folder but doesn't use the File Naming convention.
    Now, if I use the "save as" command in the action and create the droplet the same way, it works!
    The difference between "save as" and "Save as web" is a 3kb files size plus the "_H50" naming convention is not used.
    What the heck is going on? Please Help
    -Josh

    The following example action and droplet may give you
    an idea how to do this with one droplet.
    The idea is to make an intermediate folder to save the renamed psds to.
    Then use save for web to save the psds as pngs in a different folder.
    1. Make a folder to hold the psd files (temp psd in the example droplet)
    2. Open one of your targa files and record the steps to prepare your file
        (loading the channel selection, trim, etc)
    3. Save your file as a psd.
    4. Now save the file using save for web to the folder where you want your
    final pngs to be (saved for web in the example action) and don't change
    the file name when saving.
    5. Go to the folder where you saved the png using save for web and delete that file.
       (so you don't get an overwrite message when using your droplet)
    6. When creating the droplet, specify the name you want the saved pngs to be and
       choose the destination folder where the psds will be saved. (temp psd)
    The end result of all this, should save your files, renamed as psds (to a folder)
    and save for web should save the renamed psds as pngs, to the place
    you saved the file using save for web.
    One drawback of all this, you end up with a folder full of psds.
    You could just delete the psd files inside the folder after each run.

    Hope this helps.

  • "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 arlenesey12

    Okay 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.

  • 16.2.1 - save for web not working

    I thought it was ME or some setting, and so I wasted an hour not getting web images. Save for Web LOOKS like it's working, but when I open those images up they are now at 300dpi. I need this to work. Has no one else encountered this?
    I'm on 10.8.5, 3.33 GHz 6-Core.

  • Save for web not working for .PNG?

    When I slice up a .psd file and then go file > save for web and select to save the images as .png it does not work for some reason. No matter what I select it only uses jpeg. I am using Photoshop CS2.
    Any suggestions?

    As Zeno said, file format selection is per slice, not a global override. Select al lslices, then pick the PNG options.

  • 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.

  • 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 GHz

    Yes, 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.

  • PSE 8 MAC save for web not working

    I upgrade from PSE6, and I used to use save for web all the time.  Since I upgraded to 8, when I click on save for web it does nothing, no error, just nothing.  I saw in the form were a user had the same issue with 6 and I tried deleting the files and fixing permissions etc.  Anyone else having this problem, or any suggestions?
    thanks,
    charles

    I had the same issue. Running in a non-admin account I was unable to do a Save for Web. I switched to my admin account and it worked there. When I switched back to my non-admin account it now works ok. As an aside, same situation with changing the program icon for PSE 8.

  • Save for Web not working on MacBook Pro

    Just got a new MacBook Pro (OSX 10.5.7) and installed my CS3 Design Premium Premium, with PS Extened. Save for web window comes up fine and I can access and change any setting. The problem comes when I hit Return and the window pops up asking where to save the file. It doesn't let me click on anything or even hit Enter to let it save where is.

  • Save for web not working

    Hi
    I 'saved for web' once and all OK when using the resultant quicktime webpage to check. Now this page just shows a green screen in the embedded video and only plays a loud static noise.
    No changes made to location of files. I tried it again but no joy. In the finder the computer video has a different icon (a musical note) to the iPhone m4v and iphone (cellular) 3gp files(thumbnails of movie) and these two files play ok. I don't know what settings to alter if any. Another movie exported fine to the same drive.
    Any ideas on where to start?
    Cheers
    Chris

    The original movie file came from iMovie. It is quite large and I had trouble 'sharing' it. However that done it plays in QuickTime. I have now imported it to Adobe Premier and exported it (with a different file name) as an mp4v file (which it was before). On saving for web with Quicktime the version for computer still doesn't work.
    Anything else?

  • Save button is not working for ONE CLICK ACTION

    Hi All,
    We have embeded a custom table view in a standard component.While we are editing the first row of the table view by ONE CLICK ACTION & pressing the SAVE button of overview page,then the record is saved in the database. But if we edit any row other than the 1st one,the save button is not working.
    We have used transaction context here for simple object.
    lv_tx_ctxt = lr_ent_bt->get_transaction( ).
    my_tx_context->add_tx_context( lv_tx_ctxt ).
    Please suggest how we can focus on the current line which we are editing & can save the record in database?
    Thanks.

    Hi Hakan,
    Probabaly this is not my problem. I know that how bt one click we can get the desired row.
    Let me briefly explain you my requirement and currently where I am stuck.
    I have a assignment block ( custom) in the main overview page with a custom table view ( ie in the view we are displayng entries in the table view ) and the user can press edit button on any row and that will open the particular row in edit mode . User will change the value in any of the columns and press save button on the main component and the custom changes will be saved in the database.
    Now the problem that we are facing is when we are chnaging the first row it si working but when we are doing chnages in the 2nd row or 3rd row changes are not saved ( not even in the table view that is getting displayed) .
    *Let me briefly tell you the approach that we took  . Since our table view uses a simple object  ( which is not a related object with BTORDER so we need to explicitly save the simple object entities to transaction context and for doing that we have redefined the eh_onsave method in the overview page) .
    *Now the save button is in overview page so to pass the entry from our custom table view to overview we are using custom controller . The custom controller 's collection wrapper only has the first entry of the table view custom_controller->collection_wrapper->get_next is failing which is the reason why the 2nd entry is not getting saved.
    Can you tell me how i can get all the table entries in my custom controller's collection wrapper?
    Let me know if you have any other questions.
