[Qgis-user] Help shapefile

[Kobben, Barend (UT-ITC)]

He Ida,

That is usually because you have no permission ;-)

What I mean is that the default location that QGIS tries to save it is a place where you are not allowed to save anything. Eg. on MacOSX that is in the System folders, probably Win and Linux have similar settings. The solution is to press the little button with “...” next to the File Name box and choose another directory to save your file.

Good morning,
I am having trouble creating a new shapefile on a qgis project... when I try to do it it says "permission denied" but it doesn't give me a reason, therefore I don't know what to do differently...
Could you help me?
Sincerely,
Ida Ceccarelli
