alexanderre Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 (edited) Hi. Encountered a weird thing with latest Affinity Photo on my Mac with latest macOS - after quite a while of editing lots of different photos and saving them as Affinity Photo files from either JPEG of DNG sources the app at some point says it can't save a file to a specified location and suggests to either cancel or "Save As..." somewhere else. The solution is simple - restart an app and it works again. Happened to me at least 3 times today... Really annoying, please look into it. I'll add a screenshot of the problem when I'll see it again Edited August 19, 2019 by alexanderre Update: screenshot attached Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Callum Posted August 19, 2019 Staff Share Posted August 19, 2019 Hi Alexandre, Welcome to the forums If you open the file from your desktop does this issue still occur?

alexanderre Posted August 19, 2019 Author Share Posted August 19, 2019 Hi, Callum. That's exactly the case - I'm working on a Mac, not iPad, if I understand the question correctly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Callum Posted August 19, 2019 Staff Share Posted August 19, 2019 Sorry if you place the image files on your desktop and not your go pro folder and open them from there does this issue still occur?

alexanderre Posted August 19, 2019 Author Share Posted August 19, 2019 Oh, I see. Never tried that, but that GoPro folder is not any specific app-made folder - I made it myself manually, so no issues should be associated with it, however it's worth checking out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R C-R Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 If you use Finder's "Get Info" on the GoPro folder & on the subfolder in it you are trying to save the file to, does the "Sharing & Permissions" say you have write Privileges to both?

Checked it - I surely do have read&write permissions for both. The weird thing is that AF writes just fine for some time, then stops, then I restart an app without doing anything else and it writes again just fine R C-R 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
