Why save for Web and devices is grayed out?

I have Photoshop CS5 on Mac OS X Lion mountain. PS works fine, until today. On some images, I work with, file > save for Web and devices is grayed out. In addition, to save money, the options are extremely limited. It is obvious that I inadvertently clicked on something that caused this, but I just can't understand that.

I took a screenshot of Photoshop with a test image (test.psd), whose resolution is 72px, RGB, 32 bit, appearance save for Web and devices greyed out. And a screenshot of the Save as dialog box.

Is the first screenshot to http://eastbrookwind.com/screen-shot.jpg

Is the second screenshot to http://eastbrookwind.com/save_as.jpg

I am confused and appreciate much help!

Right. You work in 32 bits per channel. Change your bit depth.

  • Save for web and devices png suddenly pixelated

    I've been using Illustrator for several years and upgraded to CS5 (Mac) this fall.  I had been using 'Save for web and devices' and save my graphics as png files using preset png - 24 format option.  However, they are now save as very small files (< 5 k) and incredibly pixelated.  I don't know if I've changed in some way and option preference or inadvertently, or if it's something that makes CS5.  I need the files to come out clearer, but when I export and use a resolution more high that they are too big for my client to use, because it is pulling them in Photoshop on a PC.  Can anyone help?

    Hi people,

  • Save for Web and devices, the operation could not be completed

    I get this error when I save for Web and devices: the operation could not be performed.

    I saved to the web before for many more complex images, largest and without a hitch.

    I use a psd format with an image that I designed. It is no more complex than others I've done. It is small, just a horizontal navigation bar about the size of the one on Apple's site.

    I tried exporting, flattening, slicing it remove the slices.

    I think it's a problem with the application itself.

    I tried to fix my permissions, restart and held cmd, Opt, Control, Shift when starting PS to reset the settings. Any idea would be appreciated.

    Try to pass like a Flash, and then delete your backup for web Pref.

  • The image exceeds the size to make save for Web and devices has been designed

    I just upgraded from CS3 to CS5. I assumed that save for Web & devices would have been redesigned so that it would not complain with modern large pictures they were just too big!

    However, it still doesn't work. I just do not get it. Photoshop in general now is editing of very large images. It should be able to manage them also in this function.

    Is this just a legacy message, or is it really true that this feature can only manage small images?

    Save for web is designed to optimize the web graphics by squeezing the bytes while retaining the quality.  It was not intended to scale and then optimize large images. This is shown in the alert message.

    You can present a feature request to Adobe to change the original intent of SFW.

    SFW can display 4 versions of an image in different types of optimization. We must save the 4 temporary files. Imagine trying to save a huge image 4 times at a time through the "File-Save As. That's why you see this warning message. It takes time to build these temporary files, especially when you throw a huge file at home.

    Consider a solution scripted this one where a copy of your image is first reduced and then transferred to SFW.

  • Save for Web and devices accidents Photoshop CS5

    I work with Photoshop CS5 on a MacBook Pro with 4 MB of RAM in Mac OS 10.5.8. I upgraded from CS3, a month ago. I tried the RGB to 8-16 and 32 bit switching modes, but every time I have "save to the Web and devices ' my Photoshop crashes. It does not crash in the display window. It crashes when I choose to save. Can I get the spinning beachball and a slow fall. There is no error message, and it happens every time. I tried to delete the preferences. I found somehow there was some left behind CS3 prefs. But deleting prefs has not changed the situation. I have a lot of RAM, so I don't think that it is a memory problem. And there is no other behaviors in my system or with Photoshop.


    Any ideas, what is happening?

    And I can not find your crash report in our database based on the information that you pasted here (which are not the complete crash report Adobe).

    Did you send the accident report in Adobe?   If you can give me the user GUID from the bottom of the crash report, or the e-mail address entered when sending in - so I should be able to find it.

    I'm a relatively inexperienced user of PS with CS4. Most of the books tell you to resharpen once the use of SFWand D. disorder is you have a carefully saved JPEG the right size, etc. for the work at hand, but if you sharpen in PS, you end up with a PSD file to be converted again. Can you tell me what is the usual way and the best way to deal with this. Thank you.

  • Save for web and devices: slices of overlay

    I use Illustrator to design for the web and application UI. In many cases, there are a slices overlap for example the icons on the toolbar: icons are separated with a transparent background, while the toolbar is a slice of fat under each of them. Whenever I need to export slices, I have to hide the background, export icons, and then hide the icons and the background to export. It may not look like a tedious task, but when you have to do this cycle 50 times per day with your product manager and marketing team to refine the graphics, it is a tedious task. Unfortunately it isn't always all masking and display only 2 layers, it can be quite complicated depending on how many items there are on the screen.

    The problem only comes down to one question: how to export the overlap of different layers slices easier?

    Apologies, you have a web question and I forgot this forum I was on. You can use move your art from illustrator to Photoshop as smart objects and shape layers. You don't need quality of vector for the web, but I always try to customer reviews.

  • 'Save for web' and PS issues touch the color?

    Thanks to those who help on my last request.

    Another thing I couldn't see, is how I can maybe 'save for web', similar to that in the full program of the elements. A handy feature that I can't not far back in the Touch program.

    Maybe this isn't a feature included, because I do not know there had to be several Cup back to facilitate the price of the touch program.

    I use the installation of 'filler' for the background to get the color as close to my site I can get.  The problem is that when I format the following image on my list, the color, I selected previously is no longer listed, so have to use the slider to get to back to the color.

    Is there a way I can save my colors, or better yet use colors 'web '?

    I think the thing about web colors in the elements is so that the color is the same view of any monitor, for example a customer looks at one of my Web site? Or of course I could be very wrong here!

    Thanks for any input.

    In elements I use 'Save for web' and select the background color as CC99CC - for example, it would be the same thing every time.

    Whereas it is in contact, this does not seem possible?

    Customize your color to 1

    Once finished, press 2

    Press 3 to add color to your palette. This color should be available next time. (Don't forget to type 2. This is where your custom colors are stored).

    As far as the "web safe" colors go, the best thing to do is to use the icon between 1 and 2 and specify RGB and enter the values associated with the colors of the secure web. You can then create a palette using the method above. (TIP: to get rid of colors in a palette, just off flick.)
