Photo Gallery save error

Since I purchased my computer with Photo Gallery installed more than a
year ago, I've always used Photo Gallery to edit all of my picures
downloaded from my Sony digital camera. Everything worked fine until
last week when I attempted to fix red eye on newly downloaded pictures.
That's when I received the message "An error is preventing Photo Gallery
from saving this picture" as I tried to move to the next picture. I
discovered that this not only affects any newly downloaded pictures, it
also appears if I try to edit an already existing picture.

I've seen other similar posts and have not found any real answers. Is
there something I can do to correct this?

Having the same problem of error messages and refusals to save tags,
changes etc (incidentally am also losing the tags when I edit the
pictures in PaintShop Pro ).

The only additional info I have is an error code 0x88982F71, which
came under the heading Apply Properties file, with message that it's an
unexpected error. Don't know if anyone can get further forward with the
error code...? Optimistically yours....

Ok, I am having the same problem with my Windows picture gallery.
read one post that said Windows does not have a save option in th
picture gallery. This is true but it does it automatically. I have use
this for a year and just started with the problem yesterday. What d
we do to get it fixed? I also have a problem with my Kodak EAsyShar
software. It will shut down because of an unknown problem. I wonder i
these two have anything to do with each other? Who answers thes
questions? This is the first time I am posting to this and I don't se
any answers
Thank yo

I have the same problems you've all described, but here are some
interesting things I've noticed:

- If I leave my computer on for about three days straight, then try to
make changes or add tags to pictures in photo gallery, it seems to work
just fine! Why would this be? What is changing in my system after three
days?

- The problems seem to occur only on files larger than a couple hundred
kb's. I've noticed I can edit very small files even when I've just
started up the computer.

- This has been a problem since the first time I tried working with
photos in photo gallery. I got my computer in May 2007. I am running
Vista Home Premium, and have done all updates as recommended.

I sure hope someone finds a solution soon. I do not like waiting a few
days after unloading my digital photos to edit them!

I had the same problem. I figured out today that it was my Kodak
Software that was not allowing me to make changes in Windows Live Photo
Gallery. I uninstalled the Kodak software and reinstalled it and now
everything works fine. I hope this works for all of you too.

went caput again. I unistalled the Kodak software again and reinstalle
it and it still doesn't work, so I guess it's not the Kodak...back t

I've found starting WPG from the start/programs window as th
administrator allows me to save edits. Check your security i
permissions for "full" control under users. It seems some update o
something else will change these, as WPG worked at first for me also.

alright this time I actually figured it out. you have to do everythin
that I said to do in my previous post AND I had to uninstall my Koda
photo program that came with my digital camera. now it works. I als
have Adobe photoshop CS3 but that doesn't seem to cause a problem. i
you have any programs from Kodak or that came with your camera, tr
deleting them
