If you can't save the file as a jpeg after it is open in the editing window, then it is almost surely set on 16 bit. You can not save a jpeg as a 16 bit file... it has to be 8. With your image open, in the menu, just go to Image, then Mode, and select 8 bit. You will now be able to save it as a jpeg... but remember, it is better to edit in 16 bit mode, then change to 8 bit mode after you are done only if you need it to be a file format that only supports 8 bits (like jpeg)
This is good counsel.
