Can't save as psd file because disk is full

I'm running Photoshop CS on a G4 in OS10.4.7. I have 120GB of disk space available and 1GB RAM. I was working on several documents at once, as I have done before with no problems.

While attempting to SAVE AS in order to create a new document to crop an image, the message "Cannot save because disk is full" kept popping up.

I was working on web page designs for my illustration site and was trying to save documents with a single image and one duplicate layer. All other documents open had already been saved.

I'm sure I'm missing something simple, but I can't figure out what it is!

pretty simple really the scratch disk is full.

how big are the files you are working on?

do you have the scratch on a second drive?

this does not have anything to do with the problem but are you running the latest Photoshop v9.0.2? I only ask this because you don't have the latest system update installed. You should be running 10.4.8

My apologies, I should have been more specific. My scratch disk has 119GB of space available. The documents I had open were 1MB, 11MB, and 19MB respectively. Again, I may be missing something simple, but with 119GB available, I didn't think I'd have a space problem...

On the other note, I'm running Photoshop CS (version8). I didn't think I could update without purchasing an ungrade to CS2...

You're right about a later version of OSx-I just updated to 10.4.8.

Mary Jane,

If you inadvertently happened to have some ungodly resolution and measurements set in the crop tool, you can indeed fill a 120GB scratch disk in one fell swoop.
