I'm not being able to save EPS files, everytime I try the following message appears: "Can't save the illustration Could not complete the requested operation."
Hello auriwagmacker,
Sorry to hear about this experience. I would request you try turning off "Save in Background" and check if it helps.
If the issue persists, kindly check if you are saving to/from an external/network drive or a cloud-synced folder. If yes, kindly try moving the file to a location on the internal drive like the desktop and share your observations.
Looking forward to your response.
Thanks,
Anubhav

The solution does not work for me.
I already had "Save In Background" disabled. I can save an AI file, just not a PDF or EPS. The file is around 1.8GB as an AI file. File is simply two clipped images and black vector circles for registration for finishing.
This used ot work fine because I'm trying to update the same EPS I created last year with AI 2022 (same design). I simply did a color conversion on the images, then replaced them and tried to save. There are no stray elements anywhere on the artboard.
Mac Pro 2013, Ilustrator 2023, saving to local drive.
No networked drives attached.
File makes it nearly 50% across progress bar and pops the "Can't Save Illustration..." dialog box.

Can you tell us the specifications of your computer?
Is there enough disk space left?

Was there ever another solution found for this issue? This has randomply started happening and now that I keep getting the error message, I've been unable to save .eps files but can still save as everything else. Any help is appreciated!
