Restricted Permissions Windows Server SMB

Anyone have any idea why the new iWork (2013) will not save files to my Windows server? Not only does it not save files there, but it opens them, deletes the old file, and then won't save! I have had to revert to '09 for all my office stuff... 😟.

Just a "me too" although I'm seeing this with file-store exported from a Solaris machine running Samba. The original file is deleted to be replaced by a folder based on the file name plus a bunch of hex numbers. "Save as" to local file-store then fails as well(!), but a "Duplicate" to create a document called "<original name> copy" can then be saved to local file-store. Then I can rename the file to get rid of " copy" from its name and move it back into the Samba file-store.


Lovely :-(

To all...


From reading the thread, I get the impression that this did work using Numbers '09. If that's the case, my recommendation would be to consider going back to using Numbers '09 for this (and possibly other tasks) whle waiting for improvements to numbers 3.


Unless you have removed it, you should find Numbers '09 in the iWork '09 folder in your Applications folder.


Documents that have been opened and saved using Numbers 3 will require oepning in that version and exporting from there in Numbers '09 file format before opening in Numbers '09.
