Save Problems — Both as to Nisus New File.dot; and Autosave

Help. I can't save changes to Nisus New File.dot, and apparently my files aren't being autosaved.

What I've done: pretty much everything I could think of, each several times — ran Disk Utility from the Recovery boot-up, reset ACLs under 'resetpassword' in Terminal from the Recovery boot-up, reinstalled Nisus, changed the read/write options to apply to all enclosed items in both my Documents and Nisus Documents folders, followed Linc Davis' terminal instructions in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6680762, etc.

New File.dot. I cannot save changes to Nisus New File.dot. I get the message: "The document “Nisus New File.dot” could not be saved. You don’t have permission. To view or change permissions, select the item in the Finder and choose File > Get Info."

I saw the part about making a duplicate, but don't understand how to use this for purposes of opening a new file with a particular style / format.

Autosave. I get the message: "The document could not be autosaved. You don't have permission to write to the folder that the file is in."

Please help me fix this!

Thanks, as always.

I had a similar problem after I updated to NWPro 2.2.1 beta. After fiddling around a little, I realized that the new NWPro app pointed erroneously to another HD with a backup of my primary disk. There may be a problem too, because the new app changed the location of the Nisus New File and the autosaved file location.

Maybe this can help to fix the problem.

You know what? While I was working, it suddenly seemed to 'fix' itself. I don't question further after those things happen! Thanks, as always [and also because, perhaps naturally, I'm posting have more questions… (see above)].

That's good news, thanks for letting us know. Hopefully going forward you'll have nothing but smooth sailing (and smooth writing).
