Access denied on saving pictures.....?

Question

When I right click on the picture on the internet, and hit 'save as' or 'set as background', the internet says 'access is denied'? Why? What can i do to get rid of that? Thanks

Im already right clicking and clicking save as....but then it says access denied. Its not a link either---its a picture.

Answer 1

The author/owner of that picture prohibits saving, copying the picture. The only way you can copy/save it is to use the "Screen Shot".

While on that page, press print screen key "Prt Scr" on the key board. Open word document or MS paint or any other program where you can paste and save the "screen Shot".

You can now crop and edit the picture and save as you wish.

Answer 2

The owner has copyrighted the picture. To save a copy, press the "PrtSc" button-Print screen, and paste it into Paint, or any similar program, and edit the photo accordingly. Make sure that when you print screen, the picture is on the screen.

Answer 3

the site is preventing you from stealing their picture

Answer 4

The picture is probably copyrighted.

Answer 5

There is a cunning way around this, take a screen shot, press "prt sc" (print screen), then open any programme like paint etc...and press "ctrl+V" voila the whole page will pop up so you can crop the image out of it!. Works a treat :)

P.S if "prt sc" alone doesn't work, your computer may need you to press Fn+prt sc

Answer 6

does it say this on every picture you try or just ones from a particular website? if it's every picture it's prob your firewall. either way, here's what i would do to get around it. go to the website where the picture is -> press Ctrl + Print Scrn on your keyboard (this will take a screenshot) -> open Paint (if you don't know where it is it should be under start - accessories) -> click Edit and then Paste. save this file and there's your picture! from there, i would cut the picture out by highlighting it using that little dotted box option on the left in Paint and then choosing Edit and Copy. click File and New and then Edit and Paste and just the picture itself should be there now. save this file and you beat the website... HA!
