As anyone had this problem with PS CS2

If you open the Adobe Bridge and then open a file 30 Meg + make some adjustments say add an adjustment layer or two.
Then click on the X to close it you are asked if you would like to save the changes.
Click yes and your pointer changes from an arrow to the hour glass after a few moments I get a warning to say can’t save file because it is already open in another application.

This only seems to happen on larger files (25-30 meg) and not all of the time.
If I SAVE AS to another folder no problems or close Adobe Bridge no problems. I have contacted Adobe helpline and they say they can not reproduce the problem.

I am running windows XP SP1 & SP2, 1Gig of ram 2.8ghz processor, and two 120gig 7200rpm 8meg cache hard drives on one of which only Photoshop is installed

Does it do it if you save before you close? I work with 30-50 PSD files regularly, I always save before I close, and i've never had that problem.

Yes even when I go to file Save or press Ctrl+S I get this message.
Like I said it will not do it all of the time and only when I save to the same file.
If I save to another folder no problems strange.


Must go to bed now will catch up tomorrow.

Thanks

I had problems to save files (not that big, but still) and I was given messages there was a disk error. I was baffled and afraid my harddrive was giving in, but saving files for the web did work great (but I didn't want to save as jpegs). But all was solved after a restart of Photoshop, after that saving files was no problems at all.

So a restart of the application might work out... or even reboot your machine. These digital things can be so touchy sometimes and the solution could be that easy, just a restart.

I've had PSE do something similar, especially when I have several images open, or one large one as you mentioned. I hit File/Save again and it works. Go figure.
