I use Pages only occasionally. I was a little surprised when I tried to save a document and got this message
First, I don't know and am only guessing at what permanent version storage is. I was trying to save to my Documents folder on an internal system drive. Where would one save a document for this to work, whatever this is?
Thanks very much.
No, I hadn't given Pages full disk access. What a pain to have to do this for so many applications. You would have thought Apple would at least after entered it automatically, or at a minimum make it part of the installation process for one of its own applications. It's pretty stupid.
Thank you for your help Viking.
Have you given Pages Full Disk Access? Are you using Pages on an external booted drive and attemping to save the document to the documents folder on the internal drive? Are you booted in Safe Boot mode? Pages remembers the last folder location it previously saved to, and will automatically use that location until changed.
I haven't encountered this error ever, though once in a great while others will post it. I don't have a solution based on my lack of experience with this dialog.
Was full disk access the solution?
I honestly don’t know. I will say that the next time I used the app the dialogue didn’t appear.
Does not support permanent version storage
