I must be missing something somewhere; I can slice an image but can not find a way to save the slices as individual jpgs. Can anyone tell me how to do this in an up to date version of Photoshop CC?

How do you export ONLY the selected slices? Didn't there use to be a All, Current, Selected, None... type option for exporting slices. I have an image with two slices in it, but it exports all the auto-slices too...

I am on Photoshop CC and for me it is when I get to the Save As screen where I navigate to the folder to save in. At the very bottom of that dialogue box is an option called "slices". The options are all slices, all user slices, or selected slices.

Yes, I was looking for it in the Adobe Save for Web window, and not the actual Finder window where you choose location. Seems strange that the place to select the Slices is there and not in the Adobe window.

Many thanks; I had tried something like this before but did not get a result at the time. However, there is a problem; the master file type is jpg and I have selected jpg as the output file type but the sliced images are gif. I've tried several times to change this but the sliced files are always gif. Any further suggestions would be appreciated.

you can change the filetype of every single slice. Please be sure to choose the right file extension for every single slice as showed in the pic. Hope this helps.

Italosan; Many thanks for your information, I did eventually succeed with your guidance. However, I found it a relatively convoluted procedure. I don't know what Adobe are about here; what I wanted to do is readily available in a very straightforward manner in CS4 (which I still have) using the "Save for Web and Devices" function. This is far simpler to use than the methods available in CC. However, without your help I would have just given up before finding this out, so once again thank you.

I had this problem and fiddled around until i had a solution. Not an ideal one but it worked. On a fairly clean install I had my image divided into a number of slices (6 in my instance). I opened the Save for web dialog and then holding the 'alt' button, I reset the dialog to default settings and then on saving it saved all my slices as jpegs. I hope this works for you.

Clivewa, I'm glad to have been helpful in some way. Yes now it's a very complex process but you should consider the "export as..." as the main way to export pieces of images for the web who is now based on layers instead of slices.
The "slicing" is nowadays a useless waste of time, this is why I suggest you take a look at "export as..." who combined with the right use of layers it's a big timesaver
Cheers

Slicing is a lot simpler than layers for making HTML emails where we still have to use tables for early email clients.

Export as doesn't recognize slices. The question was how to export a single slice without having to go through all the menus to get to "save for web/legacy". Naturally Sketch is the better tool for anything UI/Web, but we sometimes still have to create image heavy emails etc in photoshop. Would be nice to find a quicker process in photoshop for exporting a specific slice.

this is nuts, take a well functioning process and make it disappear. image, make slices to align with the email design, save.
