When i save a file on Photoshop the color turns darker.

Hi everyone,
I have CS6 and when i am working on Photoshop the color is fine and everything shows up how i want. Although when i save the file to a .jpeg the color drastically darkens to a point all my lighter details are lost. I tried emailing the .jpeg and .psd to another computer in my house and it works fine on them.My color settings currently are set to North America General Purpose 2 with sRGB selected. Past this point i don't really know what to try, if anyone has any suggestions on how to resolve this issue fire away please.

Photoshop is a color managed application, and uses icc profiles to maintain color appearance over a broad range of scenarios. This includes both a document profile and a display profile.
Many other applications are not, and all bets are off there unless you take specific precautions. So the question is, what application are you viewing the saved jpegs in outside of Photoshop?
A screenshot showing the two side by side would help pinpoint the exact issue here.

  • When I adjust contrast (for ex.), the version turns dark purple or black

    After successfully importing hundreds of RAW files, aperature has suddenly lost its mind ... When I adjust contrast (up or down), the version will become dark purple or go to black black (image disappears and version is a black rectangle). The same thing happens with most all of the adjustment sliders. Has anyone experienced this?

    No, I have an nVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra
    As I stated, Aperature has been working well for me (except for spot and patch bug). I've been using it since release time and am (was) very pleased with the results.
    I have loaded the update and will archive the library and reload V1.0 to see if I can get to square zero

  • I am using a Mac and when I save my files as a jpeg, the files become much smaller, and consequently darker and blurrier.  What can I do to fix this?

    I am using a Mac and when I save my files as a jpeg, the files become much smaller, and consequently darker and blurrier.  What can I do to fix this?  I have tried to figure out how to chat with someone at Adobe, but they certainly don't make it easy to do.  At the moment, this program is useless to me.  Very depressing....

  • MAC OS Yosemite - CS6 - A while back, i did something to where when i open a file in photoshop, it no longer is one window, now it's two separete ones. one for the program itself, and another for the actual file how do it get it back to where it's all one

    - A while back, i did something to where when i open a file in photoshop, it no longer is one window, now it's two separete ones. one for the program itself, and another for the actual file how do it get it back to where it's all one window without having to be in full screen mode? I've managed to go some time like this, but right now it's just really annoying me. HELP!!!

    Just drag the small window to the top right below the toolbar, you'll see the area highlighted and when you drop it the file should dock.

  • I've doubled my RAM but still can't save big files in photoshop...

    I have just upgraded my Ram from the shipped 4GB to 8GB but I still can't save big images in photoshop. It seems to have made no difference to the speed of general tasks and saving and I can't save big files in photoshop at all. I already moved massive amounts of files off my computer and onto my external hard drive, so there is much less in my computer now, and twice the RAM but it is making no noticeable difference. When I click memory, under 'about my mac' it shows that the RAM is installed and now has twice the memory. Could this be something to do with photoshop? I'm running CS6.

    Also, I just calculated 220 cm into inches and this is roughly 86.5 inches. Over 7 feet in length.
    WIth an image that large, you may want to consider down sampling to a lower DPI to help with being able to work on and process images of this size much easier and it will be easier for your Print house to process, as well.
    You might want to consider working with these rather large images at 225 DPI instead of 300 if resolution at close distances is still a concern.
    Or what you good try is working with the images at 300 DPI, but then save them/export them as a Jpeg image at the highest image quality setting.
    I do a lot of project where I use a high resolution jpeg image to save on image proceesing overhead.
    The final printed images still come out pretty clear, clean and crisp without having to process those large files at a print house or having to deal with using that full resolution image in a page layout or illustration program.

  • Could not save as (file name) because the file could not be found

    When i try saving sothing it comes up with could not save as (file name) because the file could not be found and need to save this file. i could save stuff before but not anymore if anyone could help i would be grateful
    im using photoshop cs5.1
    Thanks keiron

    We cannot know. These kinds of things are operating system errors with stuff getting blocked due to insufficient permissions, security tools interfering, network errors or whatever. Since you mentioned none of that, it's an "Ask your mom..." thing at this point, but if you provide more details, someone might be able to figure it out.

  • Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

    Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

    I am not aware of a field type "Help" within a PDF form. I do not see it as a form field that can be added in the form edit mode.
    Forms Central forms do not support all the features of Acrobat forms.
    Are you talking about the "Tool Tips" or a hidden field that only shows when one enters a field and is hidden upon exiting the field.

  • Pages stops responding when I save a file?

    Pages just spins when I try to save a file, started after the Maverick update.  Any suggestions?

    Do this:
    1) Close all applications
    2) Go to Spotlight (looks like a magnifying glass in the top right of your computer screen.
    3) type: Disk Utility, when Disk Utility opens, select the Macintosh HD in the left side of th panel
    4) Move your cursor toward the middle, bottom and select, REPAIR DISK PERMISSIONS, just let it run until complete.
    5) Close Disk Utility
    6) Look on Apple's support site for an article to rese PRAM or http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379 - Do this as corrected.
    7) Then, open Pages
    8) If this doesn't work, make sure you have tried different documents, so you can determine if it is document specific
    9) Also, see if the behavior is the same with another user on the same computer.

  • When i queue a file for export the encoder is changing my settings to ACC Audio & my settings are not in the drop down

    when i queue a file for export the encoder is changing my settings to ACC Audio & my settings are not in the drop down. Help

    There's something else going on. When you search, the search box searches the Spotlight database that it created when indexing. It doesn't search the computer again. I suspect a hosed index. System Preferences->Spotlight->Privacy->delete all volumes and readd them back in. That should reindex the computer and all attached HDs. BTW, by default there are many places Spotlight doesn't return information from, mainly the various Library folders and the System folder. If you want to find everything, do this:
    Click on the Desktop, CMD+F, click on Kind button, select Other, drill down to File invisible, check it, continue down to System files, check it, and click OK. Now, click on + button, click on the left-hand item and select System files and select are included, click on the plus button, click on the left-hand item and select File visibility and select visible or invisible, select File Name, save the search, drag its icon to the Dock, and use to search your entire Mac—currently starts with By Name, but Contents is available. I use this instead of CMD+F or CMD+spacebar for all searches.
