It seems after a great deal of testing, I can not get Photoshop 7.0.1 to save to a 1.8 terabyte mapped drive. Uniquely enough, we can save files using ImageReady to this location.

The error received is "Disk Full". The files saved are of course not very large and can be saved elsewhere with no problems.

We tested Adobe Photoshop CS and the problem seems to be resolved. Is there a solution for our Photoshop 7.0.1 users?

NOTE: Problem has been reported to exist at some level in Encore DVD 1.0 as well. I haven’t had a chance to review this yet, however.

yup. it’s a problem. you can partition down to smaller that 1 tb or fill the extra space with garbage, or upgrade to cs.

But if you want to save images of scanned currency, you’re currently out of luck.

I just wanted to thank "dave milbut" for his suggestions.

Key elements that helped: TB limit confirmation / garbage data suggestion

I had assumed this was an issue similar to the old Fractal Design Painter issue, where the overall size of the partition (regardless of free space) would cause Painter to have save failures.

It was actually a blessing to discover this was only a "Free Space" issue. I simply Modified the Volume Quota in the Drive Pool temporarily, until we fill it up a bit more. This way I can still use Photoshop 7.0.1 on a 1.8 terabyte partition.

I also confirmed this problem existed in Encore after you added a Menu (PSD) to your Project. But again, dropping the free space below 1 TB fixed the problem.

Thanks Again

good deal jason. there were a bunch of discussion on this with chris cox (adobe engineer) where it was determined there was a problem with certain MS api’s PS had to use at the time. The windup was it was fixed in CS.
