Could not save as...

[JessicaSalazar]

I'm regretting updating PS tonight.  It's super slow now and then I get halfway through my edits and this error pops up.  Can you help?  Thanks!!

Can you do this for me?

Also, is the file 8-bit or 16-bit?

Which drive are you saving too?  Your internal hard drive?

I have a Mac desktop running OS X Yosemite and Photoshop CC. It is under 2 years old, and has 8GB of RAM. Its hard drive has 896GB free out of 999GB. The last time I shut down was earlier today. I have never run a cleanup program.

It is a 8 bit file.

I am saving to an external hard drive.  Here is the storage screen shot.  The first 11 images saved just fine (psd, jpg, and website size jpg)

Oh, I was wrong about the last time it was shut down.  I had just restarted it 1 hour prior after installing the new PS CC versions.

This is on the bottom of PS:

Ok, does it save to your internal drive ok?

If you had 12 files open at once, with only 8GB of RAM, it might explain the problem.

I did not try saving to internal drive, but I could see how I pissed off PS. ? I had more than 12 files open. ?

Yeah, that's the problem.  There's a limit to what you can do when you only have the bare minimum RAM that Adobe recommends for running CC.

Awesome, thanks! I'll add another 8GB.
