Photoshop prompts for Save As instead of saving the file as it is.

Hello there

I am using 19.1.2 release Adobe Photoshop on Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.3 (17D102).

From last 3 updates, Photoshop has been constantly playing up with saving files. Sometimes, it saves no information and all of a sudden the file becomes zero bytes.

My main issue now is, every time I hit CMD + S for the already saved file, it brings up a dialog box prompting to File save as... It is pretty annoying since I am used to saving files every minute or so.

Is there anything I need to do manually to fix this issue? Please help.

Correct answer

Try saving the PSD to the local hard drive and make some changes and hit CMD + S

I'm having this problem too. It always wants to "Save As" instead of doing a standard save.

What have you done for trouble-shooting so far?

Restoring Preferences after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved might be a good starting point:

I'm having this problem. I've tried resetting preferences on quit and saving it to the local hard drive. I'm still having the same problem—EVERY time I hit CMD+S. So frustrating!
