  Hello, you might want to re-create the backup of the levels of web preferences:

  I've seen cases where Photoshop has no permissions to change this file, so the errors you got.

• Photoshop CS6 save for Web doesn't work do not

  I use 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-

  Unable to complete this operation. An unknown operating system error has occurred.

  

  I've been using CS6 for months and it worked fine yesterday before closing did. Today morning to start it did not work more.

  I tried uninstalled and reinstalled photoshop, erase my presets, shut down/start, drive repair, repair permissions, without success.

  The backup levels of web service always works in CS5.

  Any help will be appreciated,

  Hi RaphDuBus and thanks again;  I was able to solve the problem, in my view, completely.  The explanation is long, and I just included it in the thread at http://forums.adobe.com/message/5242626.  Gasoline seems to have been in the actual permissions manually (via Get Info) on the folder (the whole folder) to the user/Library/preferences.  I have no explanation of how they may have changed;  they have been changed in the CS6 download / update processes, perhaps because of a certain inconsistency 10.5, or that they had been changed earlier, and for some reason any did not prevent the save for Web working in CS5.5.  More details are in the thread referenced above.  Thank you!

  I would add that the second problem related to the error message that appear on Photoshop (a message about not being able to save the preferences file) to quit smoking was also fixed.  It makes sense, both the Photoshop preferences and levels of preferences Web backup are included in the folder that was apparently the issue.

• production batch Photoshop - issues with 'save for web '.

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with "save for web" on a lot. I have just spent the last 2 hours searching the web and this forum and although the question is addressed, threading or suddenly go in another direction, end, or I just can't give a sense of the answers given.

  I have 350 images I want to resize the thumbnails and then save it to the web. 2 hours ago, this seemed to be a 5 minute job.

  I create an action called "batch_thumbnail" and press "Record."

  I then select 'File' > 'Open' and select an image to open the dialog box.

  I then select 'Image' > 'Image size' and resize the image to the size of the thumbnail (200 x 125) and press 'OK '.

  I then select 'File' > 'Save for Web and devices', set my optimization settings and press "Save".

  Using the dialog box that opens, I navigate to a pre-created directory called "thumbs" and press "Save".

  I then select 'File' > 'Close' and on the dialog box that opens, I select 'don't save '.

  I then stop the Save action.

  So far so good.

  I then select 'File' > 'Automaton' > 'batch... ". "and the dialog box is displayed.

  I select my action to the 'Action' of the menu drop down.

  In "Source", I put the drop down "File" menu, select "Choose" and select target directory with my 350 images in.

  In 'Destination', I put the drop down "File" menu, select 'Choose' and select the target (inches) directory, where I wish to record the inches.

  "File name' I leave the first box under"name of document", set the seconds to"_thumb"and the third"extended. "

  I then click 'OK '.

  And that's where the problem starts. Everything works fine until he tries to save the second image. I can see what is happening, as the directory name path and image that are used while setting up the SFW action part, get into hard action. So each resulting image is saved in the same file, instead of being substituted by the "File Naming" settings.

  I tried selecting "Override action"Save"commands", but it makes no difference. It is actually possible batch to produce files using "save for Web and devices '?

  See you soon,.

  James

  First of all, unless you have a compelling reason to record a "Open" command, you should not...

  In addition, since save it for Web is an export command, THIS command is your backup... you don't want to select a destination because the destination is already stored in the save for Web.

  You want to save a close without saving... otherwise all 350 images will eventually be opened in Photoshop, after the batch is executed.

• Save for Web function has stopped working in Photoshop CC - let's get a DEFINITIVE answer!

  I keep seeing this in the forums and nothing has answered this question, so I put another post on the forum.

  I am running Photoshop CC 64-bit in Windows 7. I've lived this exactly the same problem with Photoshop CS6 and was never able to solve the problem. Now I find that after using Photoshop CC for about a month, I'm going to save for Web and I get the error message: "the operation could not be completed. The system does not have the specified path. Motivated by nothing. Just randomly started to gush this error message Monday morning, and I had used the SFW function on all throughout the day on Friday.

  After that reading the forums and being on hold with Adobe supports for a half hour (with a "timeout of 3-4 minutes felt"), I was unable to reach anyone know what to do. Forum suggested other messages deleted the backup of the levels of preferences Web in AppData, what I've done. I also deleted all my preferences in Photoshop without result. The only step I've seen in the forums so far has been uninstalling and reinstalling Photoshop CC. Surely, there must be a better resolution that uninstall the program.

  Can I please a representative Adobe real to help with this? I see it all the time in the forums is of course not a rare event. Thank you.

  WHOO! After that 45 minutes of tech support from Adobe, we discovered the issue. I don't know if this could be the problem with the many others that I've seen on these forums, but I hope it helps someone.

  Seems the reason mine stopped was a simple permission problem. I use PS to work and the administrator did not have TOTAL control over my Adobe programs. It is fine... until there is an update to Windows or the system update. Then you have problems. Basically the admin just restored all permissions for me for Adobe software and VOILA! It worked perfectly. If you use the PS to work, talk to your system administrator and see about getting full permissions for Photoshop CC.

• Photoshop 2015 lack the save for Web option?

• Save for Web doesn't work in Photoshop CC

  I just installed the trial of CC in Photoshop.  When I try to 'save for web' in the file menu, I get the error: "the operation could not be completed.

  
  I use Windows 7 Enterprise SP1, 32-bit with 512 MB of RAM.

  I tried to reinstall Photoshop, but it doesn't work - I still have the same error.  I also checked the updates, but not all are available.

  Uh, the system requirements for Photoshop CC state you need 2 GB of RAM, 8 GB recommended. This is probably your problem.

• How can I add a Dropbox icon or a link to the window "Save for Web" in Photoshop?

  The link or a Dropbox icon appears in Windows Explorer when I open or save a PSD, but it is NOT available when I "save for web? It is only with Adobe products that this happens. All the places I looked online says it's specific application that this adjustment and the addition must be made and that it is not a question to add it through Windows Explorer itself or anywhere elsewhere in the operating system. Can anyone help? It's really frustrating because I use Dropbox heavily with Photoshop.

  Thank you.

  I use Adobe CC 2014 and Windows 7 64-bit SP1

  

  You want to Dropbox as an option in this pane?  See if that helps.

  Change the default save folder to Windows 7 libraries for something else (like your Dropbox)

• Used to Photoshop "save for Web".

  Since I installed CC on my MacMini (end of 2014) under OS X 10.10.1 vanilla, I was not able to use the function "Save for Web" in Photoshop (2014.2.2 version, 20141204.r.310 x 64) more. I get an error message saying 'operation could not be completed. The file or directory is not found. »

  Unfortunately, Google and the forums have only come up with people with similar problems, but not with all the solutions. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  Thanks, he does, and I found the directory for the prefs CC 2014 SFW, not where I expected them.

  First, you might want to know OSX 10.10.2 was released and I have updated with no problems. Upgrade than the first.

  In the Finder menu: go > go to folder:

  Parameters of 2014 for the Photoshop CC ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe
  

  
  

  This folder contains save for Web Prefs.psp you can drag this file out of the folder on the desktop, and a new will be when you launch CC 2014 (Cmd i (for information) on the file SFW. The permissions should be read and write for you)
  

  We'll try and see if the reconstructed prefs fixes it.

• Fuzzy dynamic objects in Photoshop save for Web in JPEG files

  I create graphics, etc. in Illustrator, place them as dynamic objects in a master before displaying file Photoshop save for Web JPEG files as a slide PowerPoint background. Created in Illustrator or Photoshop, everything through this process (quality 80 or 100 with all SfW options on or off) except for the bands are blurred when they are imported (at 100%) in PowerPoint. The only way I was able to get whatever it is crisp in PowerPoint saves a Photoshop pdf file. However, it was only the text created in Photoshop. The part of the Illustrator smart object was still unclear. Someone has an idea on the best process to combine Photoshop and Illustrator files into a single file for import into PowerPoint as a clean and clear background? At this point, I am open to all suggestions.

  PowerPoint, as with all the office applications, use print sizes images and layouts, not pixel sizes. So, your pictures are probably too small to be seen clearly in PPT. according to Microsoft, failure to PPT for images is 220ppi, so if you want them to be clear, work on the actual size (inches / cm / mm) you want the image and save it to 220ppi or higher - no use save for web. Save for web always saves out to 72 dpi.

• Photoshop CS4 Settings "save for Web".

  I have two questions - my logic/explanation can be a little hard to follow, so please check screenshots:

  1. when 'save for web', in the "presets" menu drop-down menu, I created a couple of presets and saved in the default folder name

  [C:\Documents and Settings\Shandy Elliott\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Optimized Settings]

  and I deleted those I want to use - never.

  

  I even navigate in Explorer in the above path and make sure that no default presets are located in this folder (with Photoshop not running). Photoshop allows re-charging the defaults when I re - open Photoshop or whenever I have "save for web". Is there another place/file in Explorer, I need to delete the default presets, or is only a function of Photoshop to again fill the predefined default settings (which I think is boring if yes)?

  ___________________________________________________________

  2. When you save a .jpg file, there are two ways (at least in my case)-

  a. FILE/SAVE AS / .jpg (then set jpeg options)

  b. "save for web".

  I want to do is be able to use 'save for web', create a specific preset for quality absolute maximum .jpg (JPEG - 100 in the screenshot - that simulate the same result as if I performed step 2 and used "quality 12 for jpeg options" [relatively]) and for Photoshop to DO NOT put dashes between words. I know that I can uncheck the Unix box in 'Compatibility file name' in change output parameters, but which seems to affect all presets and not just a simple "Preset". I guess it's just a global setting not be changed - sometimes I wish software has been a bit more customizable.

  

  The reason why I want to be able to do that (in addition to the savings in step 2) in some cases, I would benefit from the extra allows parameters 'save for web' [to know be able to save a .jpg .psd in several different size simply by changing these settings].

  

  I'm doing this instead of initially saving a .psd as an 800 x 800 .jpg, then open this 800 x 800 .jpg, resize like, say, 600 x 600, and then save again - which I am basically destruction subsequent .jpg because I re - compress an already compressed image. Record directly from of a .psd and have the ability to resize just the result, for me, seem to be my best option.

  To conclude:

  1. How can I keep specific 'save for web' presets while eliminating the predefined default settings?

  2. How can I set a specific "save for web" pre-programmed to not put dashes between words while allowing dashes for all the other presets?

  Thoughts?

  First rename presets in "C:\Documents and Settings\Shandy Elliott\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Optimized Settings" of *.irs to * .ir$ or something like that. " Then same procedure in "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Presets\Optimized Settings"

  This will hide the unwanted presets.

  You can try to remove too - I quite like rename that in order to remove.
