i'm trying to batch an action on a pile of images in a folder, and then save it out, but it doesn't let me choose a destination folder, as shown in pic. manually typing in the output folder doesn't work either. i'll try to run the batch, and it says, "choose a destination folder." i can't, you won't let me!!



any idea why this is happening?

 

either Photoshop or XP is fuct up.

 

restart foo!

 

Iwould say restart like everyone else.

 

no shit! :loco:

no, it's photoshart.

already did, no luck. :wtc:

 

When you did the action for "Make thumbnail", did you specify a destination folder?

 

i did not. oh, and the same thing happens on the default actions.

 

Maybe that is why h:

When I make a resize action, I save it onto a folder on my desktop called Resized. And I close and leave the original unsaved.

-Make folder on desktop named "Resized"
-Open picture file
-Start Action
-Image Resize
-Change to 750 x whatever
-File - Save as for web
-Save file in Resized folder without changing file name
-Close original image without saving
-Stop Action.

Than when I need to do a batch, I just pick the action, and pick the folder I want to run the action on. Choosing the action will automatically pick the destination folder for me.

 

Did you remember to choose a source folder first? Can't have a destination w/out a source to begin with.

 

You can.


And apparently I am wrong also h:
