Unable to save iWork '08 documents

I've registered iWork '08 but it won't let me save documents. I get an error message saying that the file can't be created. Any ideas on what to do?

Antimatter2 is correct, you cannot save or modify files within a folder that you do not have sufficient access privileges too. DougLB, check if your user folder has any permission issues, you can check this by going to /users, and selecting your home folder, then press Cmd + I, or right click and go to "Get Info". at the bottom it will tell you who has permission to modify the folder. If you do not, you need to change that either by contacting your IT admin, or clicking on the lock icon to make changes.
This is an image of my Home folder with the Sharing and Permissions set correctly.

Then check the folder that you are trying to save too by following the same method I wrote above.

Unable to Save After Editing

Ok, so I am using Adobe Acrobat X Standard on a Windows 8 operating system and I am having the slight problem that I am unable to save a document after editing it. If I change the colour of text in a pdf and then attempt to save it, Acrobat stops responding and will not save. I have been getting around this by shutting Adobe down using task manager, recovering the document, and then saving the recovered document; amazingly, this works fine! However, the last time I tried this, Adobe failed to recover the document, so this is not a viable solution. I have searched extensively online and have not found a solution to this problem. I have attempted unchecking enhanced security, but this has not worked. I am starting to understand that Adobe support is of a very poor quality, but perhaps some other Adobe user can help me. If there are Adobe employed moderators on this site, please look at this issue: being unable to save an edited document renders Adobe Acrobat completely useless for the purposes of my organization and, after all, we paid for this program. If this problem cannot be solved I will encourage my own organization and anyone with whom I confer on the subject to try other software, as Adobe is clearly inadequate.

What exact version of Acrobat do you have?
Does it work if you try to save the file under a new name?

I have a MacBook with iWork 09 installed. For a year I would use "save as Word document" to convert my Pages documents for others. I installed Lion yesterday and can't figure out how to save my document as a Word document. Help!

I have a MacBook with iWork 09 installed. I bought and downloaded OS X Lion yesterday. How do I save my Pages documents as Word documents?

Use the Export... option:

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.

Unable to save a document after signing it in Adobe Acrobat Standard XI.

I have a user who is unable to save .PDF files that he is opening in Outlook via an embedded link in the email.
When he clicks on the link, Acrobat opens the document without issue. However, when he applies his signature and goes to save it over the existing document on our internal network file server, he gets the following message: "The document could be saved. The disk you were saving to or the disk used for temporary files is full. Free some space on this disk and try again, or save to a different disk."
The network drive has a significant amount of space available, at least 500 gigs.
This was not an issue up until Friday of last week. Prior to Friday, he had no issue signing documents emailed to him that contained a embedded link pointing back to the file on our internal network file server. If I have him browse directly to the file in Windows Explorer however, he can open sign the document and overwrite the existing copy. While that works, I would like him to regain the ability to save his file after opening it from his email; as unless I show him how to get to the file directly via Explorer, he is unable to do so. (And he has to sign many documents a day as well)
Other users on my network are not encountering this issue, however some are running a different mix of Office and Acrobat. (Such as Office 2010 and Acrobat X, etc)
I've researched this issue for prior versions of Acrobat and tried to applied the same resolutions for this issue without a positive result. So far I have been unable to find any solutions for this issue dealing with XI.
Has anyone else run ino this issue with Acrobat Standard XI? If so what did you do to resolve the issue? Thank you for any help that you can give me.
Here is the basic setup that his computer is running:
Windows 7 Profesional 64 bit
Microsoft Office 2013 Professional
Adobe Acrobat Standard XI
Internet Explorer 9
Also my user is has full Admin rights to his workstation and has the appropriate security rights to the folders he is trying to save the signed document to.

I would like to confirm the exact same message is happening with us.
Several users have been receiving the error message shown below when trying to save PDF’s to their desktop or other server.
We are experiencing the issue with earlier versions of Acrobat (8 & 9) as well.
This is only started happening this week?

Unable to open iWork documents on my Mac

Been using documents on iCloud for iWork apps (Pages, Numbers, and KeyNote) on my Mac for a few weeks now and it's been working really well but since last week I'm no longer able to open documents from iCloud. It will save or move documents to iCloud but it won't let me open iCloud documents ocne they're there (Error message; "The document “Document_name.numbers” could not be opened."). Although I do edit these documents in the iOS version of the apps, this erro applies to all documents.
Any ideas?
(I'm running Mountain Lion (10.8) and iWork versions v2.2 on a 15-inch mid-2009 MacBook Pro).

Thank you! This worked for me with one qualification.
I have some very large documents at iCloud and some documents are in folders. I found it necessary to keep the Data and Documents checkbox in System Preferences unchecked for a several seconds because it takes that long for the document and folders of documents to be removed from my computer. I also had to wait several seconds before opening the document and folders at iCloud through Pages for the first time after this fix. The duration of the wait is proportional to the size and the number of the documents. You only have to wait the first time that you open the document or the folder after implementing this fix. The same thing will happen in Keynote and Numbers.
The above wait is brief and no big deal. If I listened very closely, I could hear the hard drive in my iMac running to delete the documents after I unchecked the box in System Preferences. In Pages, there were progess bars that showed the documents being synced. As long as I waited for these things to finish before going to the next step, this solution worked.

Unable to save document as (Flash CS5 - BUG - OSX)

I have upgraded my CS4 to CS5 on MAC OSX and i'm having problems saving new and existing fla files. It doesnt always do it but it's very anoying when you have done some work and are unable to save it.
I get this message:
unable to save document as (file name)
please try saving to a different filename or location.
even if i try to save as to a different location i get the same message, this ONLY happens in flash CS5 and does not do it on any other application or even flash CS4. To put it bluntly i am absolutely furious with this and when you pay this amount of money should not get this hassle for such a simple action.
I have tried phoneing the adobe support line and it's a joke, you can't even understand the operator to even get anywhere and i just gave up having to repeat myself and asking them to repeat themselves.
I would be grateful if someone out there knows an answer to this or have a contact email for adobe support that i can email them direct. As a flash developer it's critical i can get on with my work without worrying if my work will even save.
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: I can save files in CS5 as CS4 documents but not as CS5, this is so annoying.

I am having this same issue with Window 7 Professional 64 bit.
It seems I can reproduce it pretty reliably but have only seen it since I started working with trying to import and export runtime shared font libraries.
I create a new fla
I create a font asset in the library and set it to import and specify a relative path to the shared swf.
I save and test my swf and it works.
I go back into the font asset and change the location of the font swf to another relative path (this file is loaded into a shell so the raltive path will change).
After changing that import path I can no longer save the file even if I revert back to the previous value.
I have repeated this process a couple of times.

I was able to open a pdf document but was unable to save to my computer. I have adobe acrobat pro x

I was able to open a pdf document but was unable to save to my computer. I have adobe acrobat pro xi. the message i received was. "the document could not be saved. there was a problem reading the document (8)."
I was able to convert it to a Word document and then save, but I should not have to do that.

Did you try a Save As? What OS? Have you updated Acrobat?
Another alternative is to print to a new PDF. That is probably a better work flow than going to WORD and back.

Adobe flash error: unable to save the document please try to save it to a different file name

Hi,
I am editing few fla files with my Adobe Flash Professional. Suddenly it stopped saving them and is giving me an error; unable to save the document as... please try to save it to a different file name or to a different location.
i changed the location to save the files, but I still receive the same error.
Is there any one who knows how to deal with this error?
Thanks,

close flash. right click its icon or start program and click "run as administrator". save your fla.
if that fails: restart your computer, create a new directory on your desktop and save a test fla (eg, named test) to that new directory. any problem?

Flash CS6 - Unable to save document (to windows server) [OSX Mavericks]

Since updating to OSX Mavericks, I've been unable to save to our network server (HP Proliant with raid 6 running Windows 2008 R2).
I can save to any given filename once (open an old file from pre-OSX update and then save / create a new file and then save it as something) - any subsequent saves to that file name result in a warning dialogue box similar to this:
The original FLA will also corrupt during the attempted save process. The file size will also bloat.
For example my intial test file is listed as 211KB in finder
I open it perform an amend and save it once - that works fine. My file is still 211KB in finder
I then reopen it for another amend and attempt to save.
The unable to save warning dialogue appears. The file is now 421KB in finder and corrupt.
If I try to resave after the first file save fails the file continues to bloat.
e.g. if I attempt to save it another twice the file will now show as 843KB in finder and still be corrupt

Hi,
While this issue is being fixed, you can recover the corrupted files by following the below steps
1. Change the file extension of your corrupted fla to zip eg: corrupt.fla to corrupt.zip
2. Extract the zip file
3. Open the xfl file from the extracted folder in Flash CC(you will see the file is of up to date and non-corrupted)
Other trivial work-arounds:
1. Save your file as .xfl(uncompressed fla) instead of .fla
2. Connect your shared location via afp protocol on Mac 10.9 whereever-possible
3. Use Mac 10.8 or lower versions if-possible
Thanks!
