Animate has started giving me an error where I cannot save my document, even if I have been saving in the same location. It suggests saving under a different name or in a new location, but still gives me an error when I try. It just started doing it this week on multiple documents. As someone who uses Animate on a daily basis, I wonder if this is a bug in the latest build since I've never seen this before. Has anyone else experienced this?

Any update on this? We're experience this issue as well.

I've been saving as .XFL instead. It creates a lot more documentation this way, but it's better than losing your file altogether.

Thanks for this! It's now my workaround too.

Not a software solve but we use dropbox to restore a previous version of the fla when this happens. Saved our butts more than a handful of times!

Hey!
Found another workaround:
Had the unable to save document problem in Animate CC 2018. I then opened Animate CC 2017 and saved an empty document on the desktop. After this, saving works in CC 2018 too!

I have been able to fix this problem, and a whole bunch of other issues that appeared out of nowhere on my mac, by resetting permissions for my Home directory.
I followed the instructions here:

Thank you!
This not only fixed my issues with Animate CC, but it also fixed my issues with After Effects!
