Cannot Save as Template in Pages '09

I would like to create a template in Pages '09. However, whenever I go to File -> Save as template and try to save it, Pages gives me an error message telling me that I don't have permission to do so. I have selected Get Info on the file and made sure that my permissions were Read & Write (they were), but I still cannot save the file.

I am using Mavericks iOS, which has given me nothing but trouble. I hate it....

Any suggestions?

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

It is more likely that where you want to save it hasn't the right permissions.

If you hate Mavericks you shold go back to an earlier MacOS.

You have a Macbook Pro. Have you restarted it lately? You could start it on the installation disk you get when you buy the computer ans use the disc utility to Repair permissions.

Thanks, fruhulda! I just had to find the Library folder and change the permissions under Application Support -> iWork -> My Templates.

Thanks so much!
