'Apparently, when you use the Disk Utility in Repair Permissions – a standard troubleshooting maneuver in OS X What do I do? I'd rather not lose the work I did today! (Or at least they are nowhere to be found now!) I don't know if that has anything to do with it.Īnyway, I can't save this session, or any other session, apparently. This session *used* to have MIDI regions, but I deleted them quite a while ago. When I opened 'Project Info,' I noticed there were a number of MIDI regions listed.

I added some parts to a session today and when I tried to save, I am told that Logic could not save the file, and that 'you don't have permission.' Additionally Logic tells me to find the session file in Finder and use Get Info to change the permissions.
