Hello everyone, dear OMers.
I am writing because I am trying my first experiments writing Lisp code in the OpenMusic Lisp Editor, but as soon as I give the order to save the file, two error screens open in sequence - which I report in the attachment.
I hope I have provided everything possible to be able to quickly shed light on my issue.
Best wishes for a good continuation to everyone!

Dear Neo,
First of all i assume you are using the latest OM version?
Then can you try to save your file in your home instead saving it at the root of your HD. It could be (and most probably) you don’t have write permission…
Keep me informed

Dear Mr. Haddad,
First of all thank you very much for your quick reply. Yes, I apologize for not specifying it, I am using the latest version of OpenMusic (7.6). The computer I am working on is a MacBook Pro with Apple M1 Chip, while the operating system is macOS Monterey.
The problem is that I am not finding a way to change the save location, because as soon as the navigation window opens, the error window also opens, which imposes itself and as soon as I click on “ok”, the first error screen (attached screen n.1) and also the pop-up window for saving disappear. So I am automatically taken back to OM which presents me with the second error screen (attached screen n.2).
Can I change the save location in advance?
In fact it seems strange to me that that destination is set, since every time I save something in OM it automatically sets itself towards the out-files folder.
Thanks again in advance for the time granted and for the professionalism in your work.
Kind regards,
neo
Dear Neo,
Yes apparently it is not exactly a bug but an Apple issue. I will look into it.
Meanwhile, can you use another editor to just save the file, then open it back in OM?
Tell me if this works for you. Since i dont have Monterey (but it is not related) and I have Xcode installed i cannot have the exact behavior than you have.
Will let you know about this issue.
Thank you for reporting.

Googling,
Maybe also try to allow full disk access to OM Like in this case here (see method 3):
Dear Mr. Haddad,
Thank you for the effort in trying to solve this strange problem. I tried method 3 of the link you reported, but the problem persists. Also trying to load .lisp files written in LispWorks into the Lisp Editor of OM the problem persists, re-proposing the error screen presented in the first attachment of the previous answer.
Of course, it is not a problem that is particularly invalidating my work, but I would like to understand why it occurs.
Best regards and have a good weekend.

p.s. I found that, maybe can help.

Dear neo,
This happens dfue to apple’s notorization process and files. And yes i am aware of this file (not the same sa here) and i beleive indeed it needs an addition. So i will try to contact Apple Support for that.

Dear Mr. Haddad,
I thank you sincerely for your dedication. So I will remain waiting; in the unlikely event - unlikely because of my limited expertise in the matter - that I manage to obtain news on it, I will let you know.
Warmest regards and good continuation.
Dear Neo,
No worries. I think i got this one. Give me sometime to test, and i will create a beta version for you to test ASAP.

Dear Neo,
Here is a testing beta version hoping the issue is resolved. Please can you test it. (no need to remove the 7.6 version, both could be installed along):
Keep me informed.

Dear Mr. Haddad,
I thank you very much for this further attempt, unfortunately the problem is persisting in the same way as before.
I apologize for the delay in responding.
A warm greeting and see you soon,
neo
Dear Neo,
Sorry to learn this. I will try then to find a machine with Monterey and test it. It is most probably related to your OS. I tested on my machine sequoia M1 and Intel. and this works.
Very strange…
Is there a possibility for you to update your system to the latest one?
Best
