Troubleshoot saving embedded files

[Guest]

I added some new pictures to my website from a CD. Some have been saved to
my computer because I had to shrink the file first. The problem is, when I
go to save the page with the new pictures, when it is time to save the
embedded files, I am getting this message: " Server Error: Cannot open file
for writing". Why is it saying this and what can I do?? I hope someone can
help me!

When you copied the files from the CD did you remove the read only attributes from those files

I checked the properties and it wasn't checked as read-only.

You should have imported the image into your current open FP web prior to using them in the web.

I did that, it's just not letting me save the embedded files. I haven't even
attempted to use them on the web yet, b/c they won't save.

If you copy the files from the CD to a folder, remove the read-only attributes, then import the
image into your current open FP web, then insert the image onto your page you will avoid the save
embedded image dialog altogether.
