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

I get this error every now and then when I am working on a PDF and then go to save it. It is on a Windows 7 PC. It will not even let me try to save it as a different file name either.

Hi gohan201,
Let us know if this addresses the issue:
In Acrobat, choose to Edit > Preferences.
Go to the Page Display panel.
Uncheck Use 2D Graphics acceleration.
Click OK.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • The document could not be saved. This file is already open.

    This problem recently developed.with several versions of Acrobat Reader 9.x installed. The full version of Acrobat is not installed.
    Users used to be able to open an editable .pdf file in IE, edit it and save it. Some users can no longer do this. The are getting
    the error message "The document could not be savedl. This file is already open. Users who are able to save from within a browser, are actually
    using Acrobat Reader, which opens when opening the .pdf file from within the browser. Everyone can open Acrobat Reader V 9.x, edit an editable .pdf file and save it. It is just when the .pdf file is opened from a browser application, and the reader is not also launched. Help! This just started happening.
    Thanks,

  • When I try to save a doc to my server I sometimes get this: The document could not be saved. There was a Macintosh system error (-5000). What does it mean?

    When I try to save a doc to my server I sometimes get this: The document could not be saved. There was a Macintosh system error (-5000). What does it mean?

    What kind of file are you saving, and what sort of clientserver setup do you have?
    If you're using MS Office, it doesn't play nice with OS X Server, particularly with network homes.

  • The document could not be saved. an unexpected network error occurred

    I have several users on a terminal server that access a PDF from a file server. This PDF has many fillable fields like Name: with an empty text box next to it.
    Sometimes when the users open this PDF everything is missing except the fillable text fields. If they try to save the file they get the error in the subject of this ticket:
    the document could not be saved. an unexpected network error occurred
    Obviously, this sounds like a networking error, but 2 things.
    1) The terminal server and the file server on both virtual servers on the same host, using the same SAN. Very unlikely to have a networking error.
    2) This doesn't happen to every, it seems to be only affecting 3 of about 25 right now, and it is not all the time.
    Any thoughts? I have checked to see if there were any hidden lock files, but that wasn't it. Google-fu turned up nothing.
    Thanks for your help

    Hey jdorimoto,
    Could be please confirm if you are using Adobe Reader or Acrobat (what version) to open a PDF form.
    What version of OS are you using?
    Try saving the form to any other location with administrative privileges and then check.
    Hope to get your response.

  • Error Message "The document could not be saved. A number is out of range"

    Hello to all,
    I'm working on a G5/10.4.11/Illust CS3/Acrobat 9 and use to generate .pdfs from .ais by using "Save as pdf" function. Either with LowRes profile and HighRes profile. My pdfs are sent to PC users that use to post it them for changes. But when they need to save them, they get the message "The document could not be saved. A number is out of range".
    I know there was a few subject about that but do you have a recent solution to give me to help avoiding this bug ?
    Many thanks in advance !

    As a follow to the above, the problem was related to a file transfer.  The PDFs in question were being transfered from a Unix platform to a Windows Server.  The transfer was defaulting to ASCII or Text and not binary.  Apparently this was never an issue with older versions of Adobe Reader.  Once the transfer was switched to binary, Reader X was able to view the files with no missing pages.  Something was being stripped from the file that Reader X just didn't like.

  • Error: The document could not be saved

    Hi

  • When I try to save, I keep getting the message "The document could not be saved. You don't have permission" - even though I am the Administrator and the Get Info displays "Administrator and (me)".

    When I try to save, I keep getting the message "The document could not be saved. You don't have permission" - even though I am the Administrator and the Get Info displays "Administrator" and my_name(me)". Also, when I do a disk permission repair, it always repairs the same applications and files. Last night, I did a disk permission repair twice and both times it took a long time and did the exact same repair both times.

    Disk Utility won't repair your home folder.  Sounds like your home folder permissions are messed up tho.  Try repairing them this way by using Lion Recovery.
    1. Restart Lion, and before you hear the chime, hold down the Command and R keys.
    2. You’ll be at the Repair Utilities screen. Click the Utilities item in the Menu Bar, then click Terminal.
    3. In the Terminal window, type resetpassword and hit Return.
    4. The password reset utility window launches, but you’re not going to reset the password. Instead, click on icon for your Mac’s hard drive at the top. From the dropdown below it, select the user account where you’re having issues.
    5. At the bottom of the window, you’ll see an area labeled Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the Reset button there.
    The reset process takes just a couple of minutes. When it’s done, exit the programs you’ve opened and restart your Mac.
    Good luck

  • The document could not be saved. There was a problem reading this document (114).

    After adding some sticky notes to a PDF in Adobe Reader i went to save it and it comes up with "The document could not be saved. There was a problem reading this document (114)." and will not let me save it. Please can you advise if there is anyway of saving this document with the sicky notes in?

    The problem is most likely document corruption. Try to work on a new copy from the original source.

    I have seen similar threads that suggest this is a known issue with this version of Acrobat but I would like conformation from Adobe that this is a known issue and whether it is fixed in a newer version?

    Hi quodd,,
    We are sorry for the issue being faced by you. I need some information from you so that I take further steps:
    1. Which Adobe product are you using Acrobat or Adobe reader- what is the complete version?
    2. How are you opening and saving the PDF, the exact workflow?
         Are you doing it from within Adobe Reader/Acrobat application or opening it from browser, doing changes and saving it using browser itself.
    3. Can you try to save a PDF to library with Custom template and managed metadata columns using browser directly.
    4. Please verify that columns name do not contain spaces or some other special characters.
       Can you try to save PDF to library with Custom template and just a single managed metadata column  with a simple name
    Thanks,
