Windows Forum / Internet Explorer / General Topics / August 2007Pictures not saving in any format in IE7
The only option for 'save as...' is html. No option for jpeg, bmp or anything else. As we use genealogy sites for census pages, this is a huge set-back. We use standard XP with all current updates.

Hi Wanderer :-) Also try the following and see if it helps: The solution that seems to work for about 98% of such problems the time: IE-Tools-Internet Options-Delete Files (in the TIF section) Clear recycle bin to finish getting rid of the files. Another possibility is that you have may need to set the image association. XP users can use the following command in the Start>Run>command window to restore default graphics file associations: regsvr32 /i shimgvw.dll also.. 1. Open Windows Explorer. Navigate to any one of the image extensions you need (i.e., bmp, jpg, png, gif, etc.) 2. Highlight the file 3. Click on Tools on the toolbar>Folder Options>File Type 4. Scroll down the list of file extensions until you come to the one you want the file to have (jpg, bmp, png, etc) and click OK and close out of Windows Explorer. or.... To restore the default file association, go to http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm Download, unzip and merge the REG file, "JPE/JPG/JPEG Association Fix" Some image/graphics programs will change file associations. also... 260650 - Internet Explorer Does Not Save Graphics Files in the Proper Format http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;260650 Right-Clicking, Selecting 'Save Picture As' Does Not Save Image with Correct Extension http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;250747 Hope this helps.

He cannot save that page as picture because *you cannot save pages as pictures* there's no option for that. Kai SignatureHelpsites about Windows: http://www.mvps.org IE repair script: http://iefaq.info Ahhh.....I misread the OP, I thought they were trying to save images, not the entire page. Thanks, for the correction. :-) Jan :) MS MVP - Windows IE [DTS/AumHa] Smiles are meant to be shared, that's why they're so contagious. > Jan Il schrieb am Tue, 7 Nov 2006 12:58:04 -0500: > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Kai hi... I downloaded IE7 just a few days ago and I'm having this saving problem with images... I can only save them in .bmp format... I did all what Jan Il suggested below, but still IE7 continues to save images only in .bmp format... actually, when I right click over an image, the pop-up menu says "save photo as..." and not "save image as..." as it used to in IE6... I have XP w/ SP2 fully updated... and I it is in french, don't know if it makes any difference thanx > Hi Wanderer :-) > [quoted text clipped - 52 lines] > > We > > use standard XP with all current updates. Help! None of the TIF and re-registering the file commands work with mine. I think it is an update issue. I do this stuff every day and now I have to change the extension after I save it. What is the most annoying is that the animated GIFs are instantly killed. A funny is not so funny anymore. What has MS done to us? Remember, the "work arounds" are NOT a solution, nor is an incompatible add-on issue. No matter what I do nothing assists. I have rebooted so many times the dog thinks I am nuts and will no longer come to me. > Hi Wanderer :-) > [quoted text clipped - 52 lines] > > We > > use standard XP with all current updates. Help! Hi, > "animated GIFs are instantly killed" As a test, turn on the Windows Firewall and disable your third-party firewall, security suite and other security/ad-blocker programs. One of them is probably causing your problems. Don [MS MVP- IE] > None of the TIF and re-registering the file commands work with mine. I think > it is an update issue.

Just to qualify the problem, I want to capture an image on a page, not the whole page. In IE6, if you put the cursor over the top-left corner of an image, you get a floppy disk symbol so you know it can be saved. Thanks to those who tried to help. I wrote my last reply before trying Erwin Ried's suggestion. He is absolutely right and I can not think why I did not try that! Thanks, Erwin. Wanderer. |
