[[What format is your external drive? Mac OS Catalina has issues with certain formats.

Per Apple Catalina "can read NTFS (the proprietary format of Windows) but denies any write operation."

Easy way to tell if its the format - can you save to your local HD without issue? If the answer is yes, then check your external format. ]]
