Can't save files to Volumes/ (DMG)[SOLVED]

Post by radazex » Fri Aug 02, 2013 3:17 am

I am trying to save a file on Audacity, but all I get is:
Could not save project. Perhaps Volumes/ Audacity 2.0.3/ (name here) is not writable or the disk is full.
I tried this on the alpha on 2.0.4, and the current 2.0.3. Neither worked. If I could get some help, that'd be great :).

You are trying to save to the DMG. Please drag the "Audacity" folder from the DMG to your Applications folder, then run Audacity from there.
