Ableton Forum

Ok here we go. Catch me if you can. I recorded 8 songs for a record I am doing on an old Dell laptop. Well I just bought a new computer. Put the same software on the new computer. All of my work was saved on my external hard drive. So I open up an old session that was recorded on a previous computer. If I make any changes Ableton asks me if I want to save my changes. Of course I want to save my changes why else would I make the change if I didn't want it saved lol! So I click yes and then an error pops up saying there was an error when saving said file. Anyone know what could potentially be wrong here?

Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason,
firstly, could you please update to the latest version of Live? (http://www.ableton.com/latest_versions)
If you are still having problems after updating it would be good if you could provide us with some more information by sending an e-mail to [email protected]. It would be especially helpful if you sent us a screenshot of the error message that pops up.
Is saving only not possible for you when using an external harddrive or is it a general problem? Please, don't forget to mention which specific hardware and operating system you are using.
Best regards,
Philipp
