I tried this photoshop script from Hacking UI and couldn't get it working.

My layer are all named with .svg at the end as required. They are all vector content and shapes are closed as required.

I select them all then go to menu File > Scripts > Save to svg.

Then I see a loading icon but nothing happens. No .svg generated, no .ai generated, no message.

I'm using photoshop CS6 (13.0.6 x64) and Illustrator CS6 (16.0.4). Both were running before I tried exporting.

Does anyone know how I could get that script working ?

Thanks

Update

I also tried with photoshop CC (2014.0.0 release, 20140508.r.58) and Illustrator CC (2014.0.0 release, 18.0.0) but I was not luckier.

First off an SVG is a scalable vector graphic. If you have a Photoshop layer that uses vector shapes you can use:


File > Export > "Paths to Illustrator"


this will save your vector paths as an .AI - THEN, you can export from Illustrator to an svg. Ideally in the future if you're going to create vector graphics you should start in Illustrator.
