Default Photoshop save as JPEG help

I have a jpeg photo which i opened in photoshop, did some editing (not good but trying to figure things out) I then flatened the image. Went to "save as" but it won't let me save it as a jpeg. Only photoshop or Tiff. What am i doing wrong. I have others i've edited and they save as jpegs. Must be missing something. Help!

More than likely your tiff is 16 Bit. Change your color mode (Images --> Mode) to 8 bits per channel and that should let you save as JPG.

Under the same menu, is it set to RGB or another color mode?

It was on Lab Color, changed to RGB. Now can save as JPEG. Thanks for the help
