Title: Process Icons
Post by: Viren on 2019 December 10 07:30:17

Im having trouble trying to save my Process Icons.  When I had the demo version, I was able to create and save my Process Icons.  I've just purchased the commercial version and I can't save the icons.  I receive this message:  File I/O Error: Unable to create file: Permission denied: /Applications/PixInsight/Process Icons.xpsm.   Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Viren

try changing directories to your home directory or a folder inside your home directory before saving. you should get a standard mac dialog box popping up when you try to save your icons, and from there you can switch folders.

the application folder is write protected, which is normal as it's a part of a strategy to prevent viruses and malware... and even if it weren't it's not a good place to save user data.
