Make sure you select "save As" and then choose the file type you want to save it as.

CS6 will automatically flatten the image if you choose "Save As" and then select JPEG.

please see my replies in the other thread you hijacked:

In the future, please stick to a single thread for any one topic. 

It's OK to append your post to an existing pertinent thread.  That's fine.

What's not kosher is creating a duplicate thread later, which creates the kind of confusion we have here now.

I use my own server but there are site like yousendit that you can use.  Both "Save for Web" and "Save As" can even save layerd 16bit color docuements as flat 8bit Jpeg images. Photoshop flattens the layered document converts to 8bit mode "Save for Web" has an additional option to convert to sRGB mode. Once the jpeg file is written Photoshop reverts the document back in time to before the save so the document is back in its layer satae abd color space and color depth. So pleas post the layeded PSD file.

No, Photoshop CS6 will convert 16 bit/channel RGB images to 8 bit for JPEG saving.

But no version will convert 32 bit/channel, or LAB color.

(and while CMYK JPEG works, it's usually not what you want - and browsers don't support it well)

That good to know So its needs to be RGB or Grayscale 16bit or 8bit  and 4 color CMYK is not a pretty sight..

Courtney, that link leads alraedy to a great looking JPEG calledd 1024.jpg !

Click on the download icon on that page you linked to and it will download your full-resolution original JPEG

I asked for the PSD file you having a problem with, You have it seems uploaded three jpeg images named

edited pic.psd , added color.psd, added color_edited-1.jpg

the one ending in JPEG is the one I edited on photoshop.com it was origianally named the .psd file but when I clicked EDIT under it a box popped up and it said can't edit the file in that format, photoshop will make a copy of the pic as a jpeg so you can edit and save it. so that's what I did. And yes, you asked me to send a link to PSD file I couldn't convert to jPEG in cs6 and that's what I did. Those PSD files won't open anywhere but in cs6 and will not upload on FB and other sites like I was trying to do. IDK why you're insisting they are JPEG when every program on my computer says they are PSD.

If you use the link you posted and use the download button for each you will see that all files that download are jpeg files. If you habe the layered PSD file on you system You should be able to upload that PSD file to one of the web sites I provided for you. In your other thread you stated you were havinf problems saving your layered document as a jpeg and the you first saved it as a layered psd file.  If you have that PSD file I woul like to test with it. You should be able to save a layered document as a jpeg if it is RGB or Grayscale 8bit or 16bit color.  Do not use Photoshop.COM

JJ, I was unaware that the obvious nature of using photoshop dot com to upload psd's would not support downloading the original psd.  You're right, she will have to use a server.  I don't even think Flickr.com would help her out

Courtney, CMYK mode is for printing purposes and usually you would save that as a CMYK PDF or maybe a TIFF with layers is possible though i'm not sure.  What was stated about RGB Jpeg is correct.  If you have the mode in CMYK you will not find many saving options although it is possible to save a CMYK Jpeg... but again this will only make it more difficult to print because JPG by nature is a compressed format usually used for the internet like PNG but can be used in print such as the InDesign application.  The final output of an Indesign document is usually a CMYK PDF while cameras either save as RAW or as JPG (RGB JPG), especially considering the camera that  you are using.

switch the psd mode to rgb and ssave as a jpg with a new filename.  that way you wont run into any file conflicts accidentally.  then save as a photoshop pdf but make sure you have switched back to cmyk mode and save with a different filename.  use this file when you want to print your photos

Incidentally, for printing on an inkjet printer, even a top-of-the-line $15,000 printer, or for posting anywhere on the web, you should never use the CMYK color mode for your images.

Use RGB.

CMYK is for when it's going to print on a magazine cover, book on a commercial press.

CMYK is a very narrow color space, and you will lose many of your sRGB, Adobe RGB or ProPhoto RGB colors.

Bad deal.

I edited it following a youtube tutorial and I switched the mode to CMYK

BEWARE of YouTube tutorials.  There are many great ones there, but probably fifty times as many bad ones.  Look for recommendations.

In regard to CMYK. see above:

Lastly, the web can't deal with CMYK adequately, as JJMack states.
