File won't save - error message is: "...could not be saved. No such file or directory." (?)

File will not save or 'save as' - error message is: "...could not be saved. No such file or directory." File has been save previously. Is this a preference issue or perhaps a permissions issue?

I repeat that everything dedicated to the save process is different.
The app contain two sets of code, one used under 10.6.8, an other one used under Lion.
Here are the two states of the File Menu under Lion.
Compare them to what you get under 10.6.8.
State #1 when the frontmost document was never saved :
The menu item Save is replaced by Save…
No longer Save As… menu item replaced by Duplicate
New item : Revert Document… (disabled)
State #2 : when the frontmost document was saved at least once.
Save… is replaced by Save a Version
Duplicate is always here
Revert Document… is now enabled.
There is an important change in the title bar too.
When a file was edited we get the word Edited on the right of the doc's name. This word is the title of a local menu :

Cannot save error, "This document could not be saved. There was a problem reading this doc...(8)"

Cannot save file. Get error message, "This document could not be saved. There was a problem reading this document (8)". What does this mean and how do I fix it? The file opens normally, so how is there a problem reading this document?

Hi MarkStabler,
It appears that your document gets corrupted, try printing the file through Adobe PDF printer and then check the issue.

Error Message: Mail could not be saved

Just transferred all files from old G4 to new Intel Mac Mini. Mail receives and sends mail without a hitch. However, as I compose messages, I now get a drop down panel that says: Error: The message could not be saved. There are no messages in either the Sent or Draft folders.
My ISP is AOL. Sent messages are stored there, although in Preferences the option to store Drafts or Sent Messages is not checked.

I don’t know what’s going on here. I’d set up Mail again from scratch, check that things work fine, then import your mail back afterwards as follows:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/. Move (not copy) the entire Mail folder out of there, to the Desktop.
3. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Preferences/. Locate com.apple.mail.plist and move it to the Desktop.
4. Open Mail and set it up again from scratch. If given the option to import existing mailboxes or something like that, don’t. Just enter the account information and check that everything works fine. Be sure to turn OFF Store messages on the server for all the mailboxes and all the AOL accounts in Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors.
5. You’ll have to re-configure all your settings in Mail > Preferences. For spam-related security reasons, the first thing you should do is go to Preferences > Viewing and disable Display remote images in HTML messages if it’s enabled.
6. If Mail works fine now and you had any messages stored in local mailboxes, do File > Import Mailboxes, choose Mail for Mac OS X as the data format, and follow the instructions to import your mail from the old Mail folder that’s now on the Desktop.
Given how ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/ is organized in your case, I suggest moving the “On My Mac” folder out of there (e.g. to the Desktop), then separately import the resulting “Mailboxes” and “On My Mac” folders.
If all is well and you don’t miss anything, the files on the Desktop can be deleted, although you may want to keep them for a while, just in case.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

Sounds to me like the file is probably corrupt. If you had hard drive corruption or damage, that could easily result in recovered files not being fully intact. If you were trying to recover accidentally deleted files, it's possible they might have been partially overwritten before recovering. There are never any guarantees with file recovery.
Without more information on the circumstances that led you to try recovery, it's hard to give advice on what to try from here. You could always try another file recovery tool, like Data Rescue 3. Just be sure you're taking appropriate precautions when doing recovery. See Recovering deleted files.

Error message "The document could not be saved. This file is already open" when trying to complete an electronic signature.

Running Adobe Acrobat Professional 10.1.0. I cannot upgrade to newer version because several applications were already tested on this version.
When trying to complete an electronic signature, my users receive the error message ""The document could not be saved. This file is already open". When they close and open the file again to try to sign again they find a corrupted electronic signature. Instead of a clean signature with the box colored in light blue they see their signature with the embedeed message Click Here to Verify & Sign with the box colored in grey.
We turned off antivirus in the Sharefolder where the forms are stored and nothing. We turned off the antivirus on the client and nothing. We stored the files in another server and nothing. One workaround is saving the file in the desktop, signing it, and then back to the Sharefolder. Another is saving the file with a different file name.
I've searched and the only similar thing was caused by the Windows Preview Pane. See Information Transmogrification: Adobe Acrobat saving a file does not work, displays “File may be read-only”. No luck with this one too.
Is definitively an intermittent problem. The users that experience the problem experience it intermittently.
This started to happen when we move our computers to Windows 7.
Any ideas?

Correction on Question:
This is a web application and the users need to be able to load the editable .pdf form from the website, edit it and submit it back to the website from within Internet Explorer.
Users began getting the error message:
'The document could not be saved. This file is already open.'
last Friday after having no problems prior to this. Some users can edit the editable .pdf forms on the website and save the file with the same name to the website. Some get the error mentioned in the subject.
We really need help getting this resolved.

I have a 2013 iMac, with OS X version 10.8.5. Have been trying to download OS X version 10.9 (OS X Mavericks) without success; error message "we could not complete your purchase, the product distribution file could not be verified, etc". Please help; TQ

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard version in Windows 8.1 and when I try to create a .pdf file, I receive the following error message "Acrobat could not open "file name.log" because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged. To create a PDF document, go to the source application then print the document to .pdf" I am going to the source application and printing the document to .pdf yet it's saving the file as a .log file. After reinstalling the software, I initially didn't encounter this problem but on my second and third attempts to convert files to .pdf format, this error message reappeared. How do I resolve this problem?

HT4414 When I try to purchase Mountain Lion i get an error message: "We could not complete your purchase. The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed." I can purchase other apps, why not Mountain Lion?

When I try to purchase Mountain Lion i get an error message: "We could not complete your purchase. The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed."
I can purchase other apps, why not Mountain Lion. I get the same message on my wife's IMAC.

The only thing that worked for me was to boot in safe mode.
Power down. Then press power button and hold 'shift' key until grey screen with progress bar appears... Once booted and logged in just open safari and browse to applestore.
No trouble at all once I did this.
Hope it helps.

The document could not be saved. A file I/O error has occurred

Hello,
I have scanned PDF files varying in size from < 1,000 pages to > 5,000 pages. I seem to experience this issue on and off on various files regardless of the size. The issue is when I OCR the pdf using Adobe Acrobat X Pro, when it's completed the OCR process and I go to save it errors out with: "The document could not be saved. A file I/O error has occurred"
I have tried:
1. Saving to local hard drive
2. Saving to network drive
3. Renaming file and repeating steps 1&2
4. File/Save as and reducing (but it won't allow me to do so without saving first, lol)
Any thoughts? Thanks so much.

ITunes error message / "iTunes could not connect to the music store...

The past week, I have been having problems connecting to the iTunes music store. I purchased my ipod in 10/05 and have had no problems until recently. I keep receiving the following error message:
"iTunes could not connect to the music store. Network connection was refused. Make sure your network settings are correct & network connection is active, then try again."
I went onto the website, and checked various things. I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and the software, checked to see if I have any firewalls (none), checked to see if I have Windows XP service pack 2 (I have 1), and contacted my ISP (AOL). Help! I have AOL 8.0 dial up, and have had service with them for a couple of years now, so that is not an issue. Per AOL, I tried uninstalling AOL adapter and restarting my computer, and also deleting cookies and deleting files/all offline content, defaulted my security settings (they were the same), and reset web settings. I have restarted my computer, but am still having the same issues. I already contacted iTunes about this issue, and they sent me the same email twice, with the same instructions as their website, which I indicated I already tried numerous times. I have also checked my connections, and everything is fune. I try to access iTunes after logging into AOL.
Thank you in advance to everybody that responds.
Emily

Thanks for the input. Unfortunately, I keep trying to do that, and have not been able to download for about a week. After contact customer support, I received the general "technical support" email, which is the same information found on the website. After replying to the email, which stated that I tried already tried the methods listed, I received the same email again. After replying to that email which included the previous threads, I received an email stating that the deparment I replied to does not handle technical issues. So, tonight, I re-emailed them with all of the threads and asked for an explanation of why I received technical emails if they do not respond to technical emails. It will be interesting to see how they respond, although it will probably be some general email. I sometimes respond to member service emails at my place of employment, so I know the procedure. The bottom line is that I should receive answers to my questions, even if the answer is something along these lines:
"I am researching your problem, and will contact you within the next xx hours/business days with a resolution. We value you as a customer, and strive to maintain excellent customer support and satisfaction. Thank you for your patience."
Or, a similar response. I know there is a general response library. And, I also know that if some body is unable to answer a question, as customer support, they should try utilize their resources. Basically, be a problem solver.

I keep getting "The document could not be saved. A file I/O error has occurred."

Everytime I try to save a PDF file in Reader X... "save as...PDF" I get the "The document could not be saved. A file I/O error has occurred."
When I save it "save as...Text" is saves.

No it is from a disk drive.
