I used to press ctrl+s directly replace the jpeg I opened in the old versions of photoshop, but now it come out a PSD save window. I need to click many buttons to save a opened jpeg.

For example, I open a jpeg file and add a water mark on it. I only drag, ctrl+alt+shift+E and ctrl+S, that s all. Or even by an action.

However, now I cannot do it.

What can I do to save a jpeg directly (replace the origainl)?

It's because it is no longer possible to save directly to a file format that does not support the current properties of the file.

This change was actually made by Apple, not Adobe. Photoshop can't do things the operating system doesn't allow.

The jpeg specification does not support:

layers
16 bit depth
transparency
alpha channels

You are making a new layer, so you have to save a copy. Flatten the image and you should be able to just save. Skip the stamp image and go right to flatten. I'm assuming you don't want to save a copy with the layers...

A single floating layer isn't the same thing as a special flattened Background layer.
