    What it actually means is "I tried to save the Autorecover file and the operating system said "Nup!" and I have comprise no idea why." There be able to be four reasons: The file is corrupt and Excel cannot run out how to illustrate the data in it. The Operating System has overflowing up its temporary space and requirements to clean itself out. Impressive has misrepresented the file permissions so you no longer have encompass authority to write or delete from that folder. I recognize that the document was originally generated on my system in Excel, so I copied and pasted it into an innovative excel document using Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac. I anticipate that does the trick. <br><br>I in addition shut down my system to let things tidy up and reset.

    The Hard Disk has an error distressing the space where the file be supposed to be saved. Those are in organize of likelihood. Let's start by means of by Shut down the system, hang approximately until the power goes off, and then restart. That determines to trigger UNIX (Mac OS X) to work its cleanup organization tasks. If that does not fix it, shift on to the fire up Disk convenience and run “Repair Permissions", then restart (the entire in excess of again). If it tranquil is not fixed, the majority probable cause is that the file is cactus, and the merely sensible solution is to copy the data into a innovative workbook.
