saving a TIF file to a JPG file.

[mjt39]

Photoshop 6.
I want to save a TIF file to a JPG file, I can’t. This option isn’t offered on the main menu: File>Save as>Format drop down list.
I want to save this TIF file for Web. (main menu: File>Save for Web). I can’t, this menu option is dimmed.
On the computer of a friend all this works fine. Is there something wrong on my pc, or on my settings in Photoshop?
Thanks in advance Michael

Does Photoshop let you save the image in any other format?

I would try the simple things first like resetting preferences to their original settings see thread229-1028116

sometimes bad preference files cause wierd problems.

or if that fails, un-install PS then re-install.

It was like catching flies, you have to be really quick, pressing Shift+Ctrl+Alt, by I managed it and it worked. I greatly appreciate you reply mscallisto

p.s. Of coarse all preferences get lost and will have to be reset, but there is a lesson to be learned here, protocol your doings.
