Help, Quite suddenly I am unable to save files.

When I went to save a file in Numbers I got the message “Couldn’t create file" So I printed the chart and scanned it as a PDfF. still no joy.
So I tried producing a Pages file and I couldn't save that either.with the message That I didn't have the Login authority or something like that. Apologies if I am rambling but the Apple doesn't play up very often but recently strange things have occurred
I think it is something to do with permissions which have become corrupted
I have run the Apple Disc Utility and verified the Drive. The difference now is that when I go to save a file the message is couldn’t Auto Save
I have been running Maverick for some months now.
If anyone can point me in the right direction I would be most grateful

SF,
First thing to try is to close everything, shut down the computer and start it back up. If that doesn't work, go into Disk Utility and run "Repair Permissions".

Microsoft Office 2004 (Word) unable to save files
I have been running Office 2004 on my Intel iMac with Snow Leopard for some time and all of a sudden I cannot save a document. Word just stopped responding and I have to force quit. I can open Word and create a new document but I cannot save it. I reinstalled Word but that didn’t help. Then went to the Internet and found at least one other Mac user having the same problem which it suggests is caused by a recent Mac Security Update:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2004-macword/word-2004-wil l-not-open-or-save-documents/b04eb870-9b0d-4f3b-bb47-b122301e36f6
So I check for a new Mac Security Update and sure enough there was one. I downloaded it and now Word seems to be working, as it should. I can both open and save files. The only problem remaining is that when I open Word I get the following error message “An unexpected error occurred while trying to load the Microsoft Framework library”. I contacted Apple but they were unable to help.
How can I get rid of this error message?

Look, I realize you might have to get your machine working, so this is how you revert back.
Restore proceedure to pre-Security Update 2012-001 v 1.0 & v 1.1
#1 Backup your personal data off the machine.
Backup files off the computer (not to TimeMachine). If you don't have a external drive, get one and connect to the USB/Firewire port and simply drag and drop copy your User folder to the external drive, it will copy all your files. It's best to have two backups of your data off the machine when trying to restore.
Disconnect all drives now to prevent any mistakes from occuring.
#2 Reinstall OS X 10.6 from disk
Get out your 10.6 install disk and make sure it's clean and polished (very soft cloth and a bit of rubbing alcohol, no scratches) If your disk is borked, you'll have to order a new one from Apple with your serial number.
Hold c boot off the 10.6 disk (wired keyboard, internal optical drive), use Disk Utility First Aid to >Repair Disk of your internal drive (do not format or erase!!), Quit DU and simply re-install 10.6.
Note: Simply reinstalling 10.6 version from disk (without erasing the drive) only replaces 10.6.8 with 10.6.x and bundled Apple programs, won't touch your files (backup anyway) or most programs, unless they installed a kext file into OS X itself. (only a few on average do this)
#3 Update to 10.6.8 without Security Update 2012-001 v1.0 or v1.1
Reboot and log in, update to 10.6.8 via Software Update, but EXCLUDE THE Security Update 2012-001 by checkinig the details and unchecking the blue check box.
#4 Reinstall any non-working third party programs
When you reboot, make sure to reinstall any programs that require kext files installed into OS X, you'll know, they won't work when you launch them or hang for some reason as they are missing the part they installed into OS X.
If for some freakish reason you get gray screen at any time when booting (possible it might occur when you reinstall older programs), hold the shift key down while booting (Safe Mode, disables kext files) and update your installed third party software so it's compatible with 10.6.8.

That's it really.

Since updating to OS X Yosemite, I am unable to save files into another computer or server. I have to save it on my desktop and then drag it into the server. How do i correct this?

Since updating to OS X Yosemite, I am unable to save files into another computer or server. I have to save it on my desktop and then drag it into the server. How do i correct this?

Ok this worked to solve the error.
Use cmd prompt in windows 7 or 8 and run as admin:
sc config lanmanworkstation depend= bowser/mrxsmb10/nsi
sc config mrxsmb20 start= disabled
No need for all that power shell nonsense as shown elsewhere for windows 8.
That's it. Also force smb2 disabling on the apple side for good measure.
With the above I was able to network mavericks and windows 8.1 pro flawlessly. He issues I had before where I could not read video, ISO and audio files (but could open documents and pictures from the windows machine connected to an apple network share folder went away.

HP officejet pro 8600 unable to save file

thank you for reading this and helping.
I have an HP officiate pro 8600 printer/scanner. I was able to scan and save files to the mac from the network. Now since the Yosemite and server upgrade, i am not able to do this. I have reprobagated rights, created a new share, new user and still am unable to safe a scanned file.
the error I get is: Incorrect credentials.
Anyone also have this? What is fix?
Thank you

I finally solved it. Reflecting back on previous message boards I decided to try one last time. Some posters have found the problem in the Antivirus, Firewall protections. (By the way, I had even upgraded my router with no luck).I have Norton AntiVirus provided by the cable company.1. I turned off everything in the firewall. Although this left me vulnerable for a few mintues, I needed a fast test.2. It worked! I was able to print something immediately.3. I went back into the firewall, turned everything back on but turned off an individual switch within the firewall that said to "share the printer. "4. After turning it off, I was able to print and still have the most important parts of the firewall.This ultimately met my needs.Perhaps HP could:1. Do a better job at beta testing prior to release, including various brands of firewalls. Is there even a beta test process?2. Provide a better description of the error since all indicators within the drivers say the printer is connected. There should be a message indicating that it's connected but unable to print due to firewall protections.

Unable to save files permissions issue (this file is locked)

This is my first post here so thanks in advance for any help you may be able to offer.
After creating a new secondary admin account I logged into it and wanted to access my documents folder on my main account so I added the new user as having "read and write" permissions for the folder and "applied to enclosed items". This worked however, when i logged back into my main account I am not UNABLE TO MAKE ANY SAVES TO ANY OF MY FILES IN THE DOCUMENTS FOLDER.
This is despite my user account having "read and write access" for the affected files.
Steps taken to solve issues:
1. Removed second account by deleting it through Sytem Prefs. STILL NOT WORKING
2. Applied "read and write" privalliges to the entire docuemnts folder and enclosed items for main admin account. STILL NOT WORKING
3. Used Disc Utilities to run a "repair permissions" on HD. STILL NOT WORKING.
4. Held Command R after restarting in "Repair Mode" - selected terminal and typed "reset password" - from that window I Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. STILL NOT WORKING!
Does anyone know how to solve this issue? I know you can duplicate a file, resave it and it solves it but I have 1000's of files and this would take me weeks.
Many thanks in advance... Lion is 10.7.2 and still a nightmare :-(

When I first started using Oracle9i JDeveloper everything went ok. Then I changed the permissions on my local C: drive and when I saw this caused problems with my swap file I set them back to what they were. Now my problem is that I cannot continue to work on coding as I cannot now save anything in JDeveloper as it keeps saying I cannot save files and that I should check the permissions. Anyone know what my permissions should be ? I have granted uncle Tom Cobbley and all full everythng (CRUD) access to my local disk and this does not seem to have solved the problem. Any ideas ? Steven:
When you changed permissions back, did you propagate the change to subdir and files?
Also, using the explorer, select the file, bring up its properties, and check the 'Security' panel to see if it indeed allows all permissions to everyone.
Thanks.

Unable to save files

I have a WIndows 7 64bit machine with Office 2010 std 32 bit. When a user tries to save a file to a 2003 server I get the error message document not saved. I see a 0kb .TMP file created and left there. The person can create and delete files there no problem
but they can never save files there. I have tried reinstalling everything including the OS. I have tried downgrading to Office 2007 and I still get the same results. They are able to save to this folder using Windows XP and Office 2007. I am a domain admin
and I am not having any problems saving files in any of the configurations.

Hi,
Please first check the permission of the profile to that folder.
If you are sure that the permission has been assigned correctly, then it might be an issue for Windows 7 and Server 2003 compatibility. Please try to install any updates that available to both operation systems.
If your server is Windows Small Business Server 2003, then please try to install below update:

Unable to save files via WebDAV into portal

My Windows Explorer client is running on a windows 2000 environment.
We have set up webDAV to be able to save files directly in to portal from Windows Explorer. I cannot get this to work.
I have a connection and can browse all pages in portal via Win Explorer, and also open files and save them back. I can also drag and drop files into portal from other folders on our file server. When I try to save directly though from word or when downloading from other server directly into portal, I get error message: "You cannot save into the folder specified. Please choose another location."
Thankful for help.

What version are you on? In 9.0.2.6, more detailed error messages are written to the WebDAV user's personal page (if one exists). Look there to see what the problem is.
If you're using 9.0.2, I recommend upgrading to 9.0.2.6 (or 9.0.4 when available). The WebDAV feature in particular is much more stable in that release.
Upgrade information is at http://portalcenter.oracle.com/upgrades.

Unable to save files as pdf with CS5 AI

What do I need to do to be able to once again save files as pdf with out freezing up AI

are you using a MAC or a Windows machine??
there is no other place to set your PDF exports--(there are workarounds-but that doesn't solve the base problem) there should just be a choice in a drop down menu when you do a 'save as' and the PDF options window should open when you choose Adobe PDF
you should 'consider' reinstalling Illustrator as it seems that you've somehow lost your presets for PDF--BUT--
first--need to know what OS you're running--if you recently updated a 'MAC' (to Mavericks 10.9.x) that could be the problem and I don't know if CS5 is problematic with Mavericks--IF you're using a Windows machine--a reinstall may prove to be the solution.
let me know what OS you're running...OK?
this window 'should' get to this other window

Suddenly unable to save files edited in camera raw

Mac Pro, 2 TB drive, 8 GB RAM, lots of empty HD space. Nikon D4 RAW files
After using camera RAW to process thousands of photos and saving in jpg with this equipment, suddenly I get a message in a window, "the file could not be saved". I haven't changed any settings. I can work around by opening in PS and saving. Emptied cache and didn't resolve issue.
Suggestions?
Thanks
Don

Also, I no longer get anything in "File Naming" after "Example:". I'm wondering if Camera RAW has beome corrupted,
Not sure if I can follow your workflow because you also have files in iPhoto and Image Capture which settings both are not compatible with each other as with Camera Raw.
But you have two options to use ACR, either in PS or in Bridge. Select a problem file and with right mouse click menu choose Open in Camera Raw, this opens the file in ACR using Bridge, the normal open command opens ACR in PS.
This to see if it happens in both applications. If not reset prefs for the problem application, if both then maybe manual reinstall ACR plug in.
But in all cases, can you provide more details about OS version and exact PS, Bridge and ACR version (the latter in PS, menu Photoshop, about plug in / camera raw)

I am unable to save files as .jpg, .bmp

The option to save a file as .jpg or .bmp no longer shows in my pull down menu following a reinstall after a crash.

I don't know where to find that information but I have 2 pages each in a separate document. Interestingly, I Googled 'third party help in PS' and TEAMVIEW accessed my computer, and had me perform the task. The drop down menu included my desired extensions for the first time since I reinstalled my program after a crash, and I quickly performed the task and saved it. I tried it on a second document and the drop down menu no longer included the extensions I wanted. He quickly took my access away and told me to call tech support. Something is fishy. Because I am using an old version, they won't help me and told me to go on FORUMS.
The other responses I've gotten suggest that the reinstall might indicate that I have too many copies of PS loaded on computers (I have 2). PS CS is old and I have had two computer crashes (the last one did not require a new hard drive as it was caused by a repair tech who was supposed to be looking into repairing a video driver and managed to erase my entire hard drive). The suggestion on FORUMS was to de-active the program on an "old" computer. When there is nothing left on a drive to de-activate, I don't know what I was supposed to do. While I waited several months for the computer to be rebuilt I tried to load it on an old. old computer and it crashed completely (would not even turn on so I disposed of it), then I bought a cheap laptop and installed a copy of PS on it from my CD. I gave the tech my CDs to reload the program on the computer he was "fixing", and some others that were on it when I gave it to him. I have no idea if he tried to re-register anything. Should I call Adobe again and explore that option or is that not applicable?

Unable to save files after editing, can I unlock an entire folder?

Hey,
I have never posted here before, and I have done some searching online but havent found an answer to my question...
I am editing images with CS3. I had saved some on my Mac and some on a PC and put them all together to edit on the Mac.
After I do some editing and try to save individual files it tells me that it is locked and I need to unlock the file in Finder. I get that...
But I have a TON of images to edit and I dont want to do it for 800+ individual images. Is there a way to unlock entire folders?
Also, did this happen because I combined Mac with PC? I had never done that before and was wondering if that is the cause?
Thanks very much for any help I can get.

Thanks for responding, I am fairly new to Macs, would I do that by going into system prefs? Where do I do that?

Filemerge 2.7.1 Unable to Save File

On Moutain Lion using the Xcode 4.4.1 Filemerge App, when I try to save any merge I get the following error message:
Couldn't create directory: file://localhost/PATH TO FILE
I think it's the localhost part of the path which is screwing it up but it makes the app unusable - any ideas how to get round this or amend it to get this working?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris

It seems to be a bug in FileMerge. Curiously, it is only present in the GUI-launched version. If you run:
opendiff /path/to/file1 /path/to/file2 -merge /path/to/mergedfile
then it works fine. Personally, I only run this via the command line. I have a little wrapper script that does this:
#!/bin/sh
# Get a hold of the last parameter.
eval LAST=\${$#}
# Now run opendiff with the previous version and the current version.
opendiff ${*} -merge "$LAST"
Don't tell Apple, but I use this too
#!/bin/bash
# Delete any old files.
rm -Rf /tmp/cvsdiff_*
mkdir -p /tmp/cvsdiff_$$
# Do the diff.
cvs diff ${*} > /tmp/cvsdiff_$$/patch
# Get a hold of the last parameter.
eval LAST=\${$#}
# Copy the file to /tmp, append the process ID, and .cvsdiff to the file name.
mkdir -p /tmp/cvsdiff_$$/$LAST
rm -Rf /tmp/cvsdiff_$$/$LAST
cp "$LAST" "/tmp/cvsdiff_$$/$LAST"
# Now patch the temp file to the previous version.
patch -s -R "/tmp/cvsdiff_$$/$LAST" < /tmp/cvsdiff_$$/patch
# Now run opendiff with the previous version and the current version.
opendiff "/tmp/cvsdiff_$$/$LAST" "$LAST" -merge "$LAST"
