Hello,

I'm having this terrible Issue since a few Weeks: File coulnd't be opened for writing. The Issue start happenig in an old Hard Drive, so I did a Backup and reset the Drive. Now I'm working on a Brand new SSD Drive and the same problem appears to happen. Can someone please help me with this? I'll be forever thankful!!!

I'm working on a MacBook Pro with Sonora.

Cheers,

Nazim

Are you able to open the projects if you copy them to your desktop? It could be a permission related issue. Check if you have read and write access to the project files.

Let us know.

 

Thanks,

That indicates a user permissions error. Right-click your hard drive in Finder and select Get Info > at the bottom, check if you have Read & Write access. Click here for more details.

Let us know the outcome.

 

Thanks,
