Iphoto says Unrecognizable format when importing a photoshop JPEG RGB

Hi there, I've tried several times to import my adobe photoshop jpeg files into iphoto. My goal here is to simply burn my jpegs on to a cd and to do that I'm trying to import them into iphoto to burn them. However, my adobe photoshop jpegs won't import. Other threads mention that the files should be RGB and I ensured that they were in photoshop but it still shows that my jpegs are unrecognizable formats. I feel like I'm ALMOST there and missing one piece to be able to import them successfully. Something else to mention is that I don't NEED them to be Adobe photoshop jpegs. I just want them to be normal jpegs. I feel like is what's preventing them from importing into iphoto. Any thoughts? Thanks for any help!
