Cannot save Numbers files to our Mac OS X Server (10.6.8) due to permissions problems.

This is not a univeral problem, only a few people see it, and sometimes only with certain locations of our server. They cannot save Numbers file to the server but they can save it to their desktop and then drag the file to the file server. I have reset permissions for the locations in question to no avail. Any suggestions?In the latest case the iMac is running 10.6.8 and Numbers 2.3.

Paul,
This is a long-standing problem with no resolution that I am aware of except to not save iWork documents directly to a server.

  • Cannot save numbers file, permission denied

    Permission denied trying to save a spread sheet. Tried the repair permissions and nothing. I really do not want to reboot as I have spent too much ime working on the spreadsheet.

    Chris,
    Just ran into this same problem with Saving a pre-existing Numbers file under Snow Leopard / OS 10.6.8.
    Solution for me was to notice, in the Finder, that weeks ago, I had previously moved the problem Numbers file into a locked folder that I was using to protect its contents from accidental changes. (The file itself was not locked!) I had forgotten that I had done this! "Insufficient permissions" or "possible full disk error messages" on attempts to save it resulted.
    Try this: First, check if the problem file is locked in the Finder.
    Select the Numbers file that is giving you trouble in the Finder,
    then press Command+I to open its Get Info window
    In the General section (NOT in the Sharing & Permisions section) check to see if the Locked box is checked.
    If it is, Click it to uncheck and unlock the file
    Close the Get Info window
    If the problem file itself was NOT locked - follow this same procedure for the Folder in which it resides, as well as any folders above it in the Finder hierarchy.
    Actually, if you just OPTION+CLICK on highest folder in which the problem file is nested, you will open it AND open all its sub-folders. If ANY are LOCKED you will see a tiny padlock icon over its lower left corner. Just unlock them as needed and you should regain full access to your problem Numbers file …assuming your problem had the same cause as mine.

  • I transferred a pages file from ipad to mac (also pages) via email for editing. However received message that cannot save edited document to the mac because "trial period has expired for iwork"! I have purchased pages for both machines separately. Ideas?

    I transferred a pages file from ipad to mac (also pages) via email for editing. It opened normally. However, after editing, received message that cannot save edited document to the mac because "trial period has expired for iwork"! I have purchased pages for both machines separately and presumed they would work without a hitch. Am I missing something?

    It used to be that to update the trial to the licensed version with the box, you just inserted the DVD & ran the installer to convert the trial to licensed. This changed with Snow Leopard. You now need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
    Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his iDisk in For_iWork > iWork '09 > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

  • Keep getting Cannot save library file error -50 message on my PC

    I keep getting "cannot save library file error -50 when I open up iTunes on my PC
    Won't download music purchased on iPhone4 to iTunes in my PC

    Same issue here. Running Windows Vista Home Premium Edition and newest version of iTunes. Normally happens when I am ripping a CD into iTunes and by chance multi task or the screen saver kicks in.
    What ***** is if you walk away while ripping a CD(because it takes 3 times as long in iTunes vs any other ripper), and it will halt your ripping until you click "ok". I have not tried the "dont tell me again" check box just in case it is a problem I need to know about. This happened about 2 or 3 days after upgrading to Vista and I got an empty library the next time I opened the library. Somehow it got corrupted. Luckily I back up the xml file and just restored that one file from last back up.
    (off subject but also getting the maxed our processor still in the newest version for Windows Vista. Wish they would fix that!)

  • I keep getting error message (cannot save as "file name" because of a program error)

    I opened a pdf in photoshop and when I need to save it back as a pdf i get this error (cannot save as "file name" because of a program error). I need to save it specifically as PDF/X-1a:2001 but the only pdf options that will work are "highest quality print" and "smallest file size". None of the others work. I'm running Photoshop CS5 on a PC laptop and I tried it on my desktop and also a mac running CS 5.5 and always get the same error. I think the problem might be with the custom color settings I have but it works fine on my work computer with the same color settings. What could be going on?

    Yes, it's probably related to your color settings in some way. Why you are doing it in the first place...? Since they are ISO standards there is simply no liberty in choosing arbitrary settings for PDF/X, especially the archicval flavors... So in conclusion you will have to make your color settings compliant. The crash itself is probably a bug in the PDF libraries and it may work at your office because there you may use a different version of Acrobat/ Adobe Reader and the associated PDF libraries which do not have this bug. Still, the initial issue remains: You need to work within the spec, not against it.

  • "You don't have permission to save in this location." Cannot save any files anywhere. All permissions open, all other browsers save OK in same place. Why?

    I cannot save any files anywhere. I always get the message "You don't have permission to save in this location. Contact the administrator to obtain permission. Would you like to save in the {} folder instead?"
    I have created a clean profile in Profile Manager, and used the Reset Firefox tool. The only way I can save files is to use another browser. IE and Chrome have no problems saving files to the exact same folders.
    This seemed to have started with the last update on 10/5/2013.

    Maybe something changed in the program shortcut you use to start Firefox. Can you check right-click > Properties > Compatbility tab and make sure nothing is selected there?
    ''I've never tried this myself, but the forum has a standard set of steps for a "clean reinstall" of Firefox to replace damaged program files. During this process, you are not removing personal settings, but you are removing some shared add-on folders, which would affect Windows Media Player and perhaps other plugins/extensions installed that way.''
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete (or if you're nervous, move or rename) the Firefox program folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox (32-bit)
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox (64-bit)
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Does that help?

  • Help Cannot Save As File

    I'm a brand new InDesign user.  Have had one class and am expected to do all types of collateral here at work.  I've opened files, started designing but when I click Save As, the whole thing freezes up.  The only way out is to cancel through the task manager.  I have InDesign CS3 running on Microsoft XP.  The same thing happens if I try Save As in Photoshop.  I am not going to be very effective if I cannot save my work.  I am in marketing and not a techie.  So if any one could help me without having to know a tremendous amount about program set up it would be greatly appreciated.

  • Cannot save jpg files in outlook express

    Is there a problem sending a jpg file from Apple mail to outlook express? People I am sending to say they can see the photo, but cannot save the file.

    Do you have the "send Windows friendly files" checked? Other than that, there isn't much you can do that I know of; it is the recipient's ISP server/settings and their mail client settings that determine the remainder.

  • "I received a PDF File via email,I can fill out the text box but I cannot save the file."

    I sent a PDF file to someone via email, they were able to fill out the form but they cannot save the file to send back, I have checked the security properties and there were no restrictions. Do I need to save the PDF a specific way? I have sent it to others that have Acrobat Pro and are able to save but those without Acrobat are unable to save. Please advise!
    Thank you!

    Hi MSMistry1,
    Users with Adobe Reader 8 and later will be able to save form data if you save the form as a Reader Extended PDF with Enable Additional Features selected. See http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/X/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7e0d.w .html

    I get this message when I am trying to save a file that was done in CS4, now using  CS6 "Cannot save the file as the font "ArmenianLSU-italic" could not be embedded because of licensing restrictions. Turn off the pdf compatibility option and try again." Even if I start a new file I unable to save it with this font. I need to use this font.

    Then you need to outline all text before savng the PDF.
    Make sure you do this on a copy of the file.

  • I am trying to download iTunes, but cannot save the file because the thank you page comes up right away.

    My Windows7 PC crashed and I have the files backed up online with Carbonite.  I want to buy a Mac I book.  Carbonite says it cannot download pc files to a Mac.  Is there a solution?

    Brilliant, that clears things up - there is a single
    audio in that is next to the PC in so I guess I need
    one of the single cables you have mentioned,
    hopefully the Apple Store can point me in the right
    direction when I go in to buy my Mini.
    If the TV has a single minijack-type audio input, then the cable you need is a very standard one that can be found almost anywhere that cables for audio/home theatre systems are sold. In the old days it would be easy to point you towards the nearest Tandy, but as I understand it they're now gone. However, even supermarkets such as Tesco are likely to have something this basic!
    No doubt Apple will release an Intel Core 2 Duo
    version the day after I pick it up.
    There's no doubt that at some point Apple will revise the range and make new mini's faster or more powerful - and it may be that it happens next week at the Macworld Expo. I'd bet there are a few people holding on for a few days to see if new minis are announced there, and you might want to do the same if it's of concern, but the existing models are plenty powerful, and more than enough for most user's needs.
    Thanks for all your help, much appreciated.
    You are most welcome - and please come back and post again if you have any further questions or any problems once you've got your system!

  • Photoshop CS3 is now closing when I attempt to save any file on our network.

    Photoshop CS3 is now closing when I attempt to save any file on our network.
    This has been occuring for the past few months.  I have 8 years with this not happening on this machine and this network.  I now have to save to my desktop, then move the file to the correct folder, re-open it and work from there.  Any ideas to fix this??

    Hi Andy,
    This workflow might be working for you however it is not the ideal or correct workflow.
    Please refer to below article.

    Photoshop is not supported while working with network drives. I would recommend an external or a local drive instead.
    Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums.

    created by Barbara B. in Photoshop Elements - View the full discussionYou are being deceived by the Save button, like most people. That button is not the Save As button, really, but a link to the DNG converter. To save your raw file in an image format, click the Open button instead and then save in the format of your choice in the editor.
