I have been plagued with this problem for the best part of my experience with Firefox, it was once upon a time, and certainly when using Internet Explorer, possible to right click and save a picture and the thumbnail of the file showed it as an image, opening it into photoshop displayed it as an image. In IE this method is 'Save picture As'.

Using Firefox I can be at a website , right click picture, save Image As, ok it, then to see if its been saved as a valid image type I repeat the process as far as viewing its destination folder, and I see its not an image but just an icon for the software that is set to open it, in my case Photoshop. If I try to open it photoshop says invalid, other softwares also refuse to open it. If I then copy paste the address of the website to IE and try there, it successfully saves the file as a valid image type and it is viewable in Windows Explorer as a small thumbnail of the image and it opens fine into an image software.

here is an example. http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234951717-bomber-command-wwii-in-172/ images of these models fail to save in Firefox paste this address into IE and I can save them successfully.

Some websites it works fine on. If an image is being pulled into the page from e.g. Flickr it fails in Firefox, yet works with IE.

To get round the Firefox issue, I have to right click the image, choose copy, open photoshop, go file new then paste, then save image from there.

What is going on ?

I confirmed the problem. When the browser makes a jpg file, it can not be displayed using my software.


This is how I do it;

Taking a Screenshot; Windows > Start > search box > Snip. Select Snipping Tool. Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot. Save the picture(s) to your desktop. Now look at the Reply box below. Press the button under it that says Browse. Now select the screenshot(s) from the desktop and load them one at a time.


Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for screenshot add-ons.

Unfortunately, Firefox is a bit stubborn about re-requesting those images rather than saving them from its cache, which triggers one of Firefox's odder behaviors.

If you right-click the embedded image, hold down the Ctrl key and click View Image, you'll see that the hosting site -- Photobucket -- is redirecting to a web page. This is what is happening invisibly when you try to use right-click > Save Image As. If you rename that downloaded .jpg file with a .html extension, you'll see it opens as a web page.

Why? When it retrieves an embedded image, Firefox indicates it is not picky about the content types it will accept. However, when retrieving an image "stand alone" Firefox sends the standard content types for web pages and that triggers the redirect.

Why?! I don't know. I'm not sure anyone knows. Clearing the network.http.accept.default preference in about:config will work around the issue, but that could cause problems in browsing regular web pages.

So for the time being, you could use a two-step process:

(1) Right-click the image, hold down Ctrl and click View Image to launch the image in a new tab.

(2) If you get just the image stand-alone, you can save it normally. If you get a Photobucket page, click the gear button on the picture and choose Download from the menu.

I don't know whether anyone has created an add-on to work around this.

Hi, Thats a help, far quicker than print screen the page then use photoshop to crop and save each time ! IE can save pic as dead easy so why Firefox has this issue is a nuisance. I am now doing what appears the easier of the two. (1) Right-click the image, hold down Ctrl and click View Image to launch the image in a new tab.

(2) If you get just the image stand-alone, you can save it normally. If you get a Photobucket page, click the gear button on the picture and choose Download from the menu.

I don't know whether anyone has created an add-on to work around this.

I wish someone would tackle this fundamental failing as its been a pain in the side when using Firefox for ages now.

Any Spocks out there willing to solve it ?
