HELP! Can't Save!

[OAmaro@adobeforums.com]

At this moment I'm stuck and can't save my IR document that I was working on for over an hour (got too focused).

I have 1.25GB of memory, closed all other programs, Purged All, tried to save it under a different name...but when I try to Save/Save As, ImageReady tells me "Could not save the ImageReady document because there is not enough memory available."

I did a heck of an amount of work and I'll go ballistic if I lose it all. And I'd sure like to go home too.

Any and all help appreciated.

Oy! Can you copy each layer and paste into Photoshop and save each one individually from there? A pain to be sure but you can save all or most of it if that works. Then tomorrow try to fix it; run Disk Warrior, whatever.

Hopefully someone else has a better idea.

Not much to go on, since I don't know what operating system you are using, how much RAM is allocated to Photoshop and how much to Image Ready, and there's a risk you might crash before you are able to save your image. So be cautious.

Have you tried JumpTo Photoshop from IR?

[Ed_Hannigan@adobeforums.com]

Thought of that, Ramon, but don't you have to Save before you can Jump?

[Ramón_G_Castañeda@adobeforums.com]

Ed,

don't you have to Save before you can Jump?




If you say so, I believe you. I had (have) no idea. I assume that if there's not enough memory to save, there won't be enough memory to copy and paste either.

Can't you purge the memory?

Don't save it File Export>Original File >Photoshop!

Sorry I didn't see this sooner that should work!

[Ed_Hannigan@adobeforums.com]

Wade, that's pretty cool. Never noticed that. I hope it did the trick.

Yup, I tried all of the above suggestions last night (except for the File Export trick).

* *sigh** Unfortunately, I bit the bullet and had to Quit without saving it. Thanks anyhoo folks!
