Saving is not possible during recording

Post by cantoine » Sun Oct 18, 2020 7:43 am

"Saving is not possible during recording" ....no tracks are record enabled and I am NOT recording!....this happened when I was recording a lot of Automation and "automation enable" would not turn off either....I lost half a days work!....I could not save anything in any way!.....spamming the "stop" button or any record button would not work either..........Totally lame, totally unprofessional! :(. I will mix into Logic, use rewire, and do automation there until this is fixed!

I am using Mac OS 10.14.6
Live version 10.1.25
Apogee Duet Audio Interface with latest firmware for my OS version.
MOTU Micro Lite MIDI Interface with current driver.
Ableton Push 1

The arrangement record button was stuck on while no tracks where record armed (disabling saving) and so was the automation arm button. Has anyone else seen this bug? Is there a workaround?

Are you seeing this regularly? Or was it a one-shot (hopefully!)?

SOLUTION:
Click the "Back to Arrangement" button on the Master track.
(It's the right arrow + 3 horizontal lines)
