Hello,
When I go to save my work on Photoshop and I change the format to JPEG and make it 8 Bits the little box comes out and it reads as follows:
"Could not save a copy as (%#%#^%.jpeg) because write access was not granted"
How the heck do I grant access to SAVE!!!!!!!!!!
I am running Photoshop CS4 if that helps.
Thank you for your help in advance.

Try saving to a different folder or a different file name. Failing that, you could flatten the image, select all, copy, start new file, paste, then try saving that file.

Check the original file and make sure that you haven't got it set to "read only" in its properties

How do I get to its properties to check if its "read only"

Go to the folder the file is in and open the folder up - select the file with a right click and from the menu select "properties". You should then get a little window and somewhere near the bottom will be "attributes" if read only is ticked you will have to untick it. Sadly though this might not work with the file already opened in photoshop so you might have to close (and lose you edits) and then repeat again once read only is unticked (if this is indeed the problem)

edit - you might also try changing the file name when you save it that might get around the read only clause

Try going to Adobe product support, or Photoshop forums.
