When attempting to save a numbers doc, get message, " Couldn't auto-save document."
When attempting to save a Numbers checklist document, I get the message "Couldn't auto-save document." What does this mean and why can't I save it to my hard drive?
I have exactly the same problem. It seems like a very rare problem though because there is so little written about it, and it is a real show stopper!!
I also had the additional problem that I could not export anything as PDF.
Your workaround did not work for me, but a different one did. I simply clicked on the red "close" button on the top left of the window, and the usual dialog box asked me if I wanted to save. I said yes, and it saved! I can even export the PDF now.
Extremely bizarre, and I must say not a solution I would rely on in a long term basis.

Numbers 3.1 "Couldn't auto-save document"
I have a very basic smallish spreadsheet with no forumlas, formating, etc and it won't save after the initial save. When I attempt to save I get this: "Couldn't auto-save document". I checked the file in Finder and it wasn't modified.
I won't save to CSV or Excel formats either. I've tried copying and pasting the table into Excel 2007 and no luck.
OSX 10.9.1, Macbook Pro Retina 2012
Any ideas? I haven't found advice on the Web. Fortunately I have Excel with VMware and Win7 and Open Office and Libre Office on the Mac side.
JimI saved my work by copying the table to an Open Office spreadsheet.
When quitting Numbers I received this message:
[filename} is on a volume that does not support permanent version storage. The filename was my file's of course. I tried to save this file on my MBP SSD and on a network hard drive that is working fine for everything else. -

Hi myarwema,
Are you using Acrobat on Mac OS or Windows (and what version?). You say you have version 11.0.0, but the current version is 11.0.10, so please choose Help > Check for Updates and install any available updates for starters.
Does the error occur regardless of the PDF that you try to edit? If the problem is widespread, I would recommend a repair/reinstall of Acrobat (if installing the updates doesn't help). If the problem occurs with just the one document, that PDF could be damaged.
Best,

When attempting to open email I repeatedly get a message that my username or password is incorrect. I have tried everything to reconcile including deleting and reopening the account however nothing has worked. Any suggestions?
If it is a POP account, there could be an issue with the outgoing server setting. It will not hurt to check this and make sure. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional. -
When I try to save a document a message comes up saying "Couldn't auto-save document." How can I fix this? Thank you for your help! - Chip
This is a mean one. I don't have time to try and find the cause, but at least some answers to your questions, to hopefully shed some more light on this.
Where was the original destination? iCloud folder.
On another drive? Tried to Save as... to Hard Drive (also changing name of file), always get the same non-descript short Error "Couldn't auto-save document." (slides down from top with a yellow warning triangle). Status to the right of document name is "Not Saved".
Another Server? No access at this time.
I also tried File, Revert to, Browse all versions, to check what I'd be losing. Saw I wasn't losing much and selected the last version and pressed Restore - same error. In the end I just quit Pages and re-opened. The document opened with the last few edits missing (but with the status "Edited" next to the name). I re-edited and could save. Good old habit of saving often. -

I use apple tv; but when click on 'rent the movie' I get message to verify my payment info on itunes. I looked at my account and I am paid up. How do I 'verify'?
I believe it is asking you to enter your CVV code.
Edit your billing info, fill in the red box on iTunes. -
When I try to buy music, I get message saying that my credit card information does not match the bank records. My information, formatting are exactly the same as the bank. Help!
Look on one of your bank statements and be sure to enter the billing address exactly as it shows on the statement. Some folks forget where they actually get the statement. They put their home address in iTunes/Mac App Store and they actually get the statement at their place of employment or vice versa.

when I click on purchase book, i get message "Incomplete Book. Your book seems to have frames on one or more pages that do not contain photos." I have checked the page layouts several times and no missing seem to be missing. Any suggestion? page layouts and number of photos are consistent. several pages are identified as custom, as a result of captions added to several photos. I'm using a macpro and iphoto11.
There is one or more missing photo - typically a page background requiring a photo that is hidden behind a layout with photos in it - look through every page for that - any page tha thas a grey background rather than color is a problem - and it ccan be behind a full page photo so you have to check the page background rather than just look at the page
