Hey yes 

top left corner you'll see 

cloud and local 

select local 

home icon (username) select... allow access 

and that should resolve hopefully 🤞

Hi,

Apologies for posting in this thread but I am having the same issue and wondered if you had any advice?  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.  I've always exported my edited photos to an external hard drive once I have finished but since the last update I cannot export to my external HD.  

I get the message You do not have permission to save files in "volumes/My Passport/name of folder..."

If I go to the Local tab and try that I then get the mesage Folder Permission denied - The Folder "My Passport" cannot be opened because you do not have permission to see its contents

If I try to save to an already created folder on the external hard drive it allows me but if I try to save to a new folder I am being blocked by the messages above.

I have checked the System Settings and Privacy & Security settings and everything seems to be as it should be so I am totally confused.

Hi everyone

I am trying to export my photos to a folder on my desktop and I get the message "You do not have permissions to save files in "/Users/xxxx/Desktop/folder". 

I have already given Lightroom full disk access through the Privacy & Security settings and I can export successfully to the Pictures folder. But, I still can't save to my Desktop which is synced to my iCloud account. 

 

If it helps, I also can't export to any other folder I create under "/Users/xxxx/" and this is the error message I see:

I have Lightroom version 7.3 from Mac App Store and macOS Sonoma 14.5

Im getting this same "no permission" message despite me allowing disk access.  However, there is one file on my desktop that ive created and it does allow it, but that's the only folder.  Why does it allow one and not rhe others?
