[Write] Access not granted

[Chris23214358rpku]

I cannot save my edits in PS macOS Monterey 12.5.1    The error message "could not save as because write access not granted" I have gone through system>security and privacy>Privacy tab> Accessibility and checked Ps and LrC.   And still nothing

Have you tried checking Photoshop in the Full Disk Access tab rather than Accessibility?

System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy tab > Full Disk Access > check box for Adobe Photoshop

Accessibility features allow people with a range of needs, including vision, hearing, physical and motor skills, to use their device more easily.

[Chris23214358rpku]

Yeah did that as well. Still doesn't work.

[John Waller]

Odd.

Have you tried closing Photoshop and re-opening? Also never hurts to re-boot before re-launching Photoshop.

One possibility is that you don't have permissions to save to the location you are trying to save to.

• Try another location
• Select the folder you are trying to save to in Finder and choose Get Info to see / change the permissions.

Let us know if either of these work.

Thank you for that idea Jane. I can save it to the cloud. not my first choice, because you know, I'm old. but it will help til I get the whole problem resolved.

i've used a passport to save my files from adobe ps on my old imac and have never had a problem.

so frustrated --please advise.
