Why do I see this error: "The command 'make' is not currently available?"

Your image mode is probably not compatible with the actions. Examples of incompatible modes are indexed color and multi-channel. Convert your image to one of the other modes, such as RGB, CMYK, Lab, or Grayscale before running the action.

Also, make sure your image is in 8-bit mode. 16-bit mode will not work.

Some suggestions:
  1. Restart Photoshop

    People have reported that sometimes, especially right after loading a new action, Photoshop behaves strangely, and that after closing Photoshop and restarting it, the problems go away.

  2. Close some Programs or Restart your Computer

    If you've used the actions successfully before, but they aren't working today, your computer might be short on available memory. If you're running other programs, close some of them and try again. If you're still having trouble, there could be problems caused by programs not releasing memory after they terminate. Restarting your computer may help.
