Donny,
given that you're saving it as a different filename, then the 2nd reason is
not possible, if you're saving it as a different filename you don't need
permission to save over the file. Use your preferred program and save the
file in a totally new location with a different name. Exit the photo program
and don't open ImageJ yet. Right click the file and go to properties. Tell
us what the file size is. Is it truly 1 MB. If it is, try opening the file
in ImageJ. If the confirmed 1 MB file opens in imageJ as 13 MB let us know,
but I suspect this is not the case. Keep us updated
