Save a file in Office for Mac. You can save a document as plain text so that the document can be opened by a number of text editing programs. However, saving a document in plain text does not reliably preserve the formatting, layout, or other features of the document. OneDrive is a file hosting service and synchronization service operated by Microsoft as part of. OneDrive includes an online text editor that allows users to view and edit files in plain text format. Directly save Office documents within Outlook.com to OneDrive, and view or edit these. 'OneDrive on the Mac App Store'.

When I attempt to save any office 2016 file to a share on our Windows server the file dialog will appear, I can type out a file name and press Save. The Save dialog box will disappear for about 0.5 seconds and then it will re-appear. A similar thing occurs if I open a document from the share and attempt to save changes. Rather than simply saving the document the Save dialog will appear and ask for a file name. The only way I can save an edited file from Word, Excel or PowerPoint is to save it locally first and then switch to the finder and drag the edited file to the original location.

The following errors recorded in the console log ( I added the ellipses to obscure our internal network) 2/5/16 12:53:20.982 PM sandboxd[141]: ([2393]) Microsoft Word(2393) deny file-write-create /Volumes/Users/./Word Work File D_394339859.tmp I should also note that if I open the file using Office 2013 running under Virtual PC on the same computer there are no problems opening, editing and saving the same files. Melon, I can understand why you might think this but let me provide some additional information. • I have the same problem with documents from all of the MS Office Suite.

• If I create a document with the Apple suite (Pages, Numbers, Keynote) I can save to the Windows server share with no problem. I can use these documents to open and edit either their native format or the MS office format files and re-save the change documents with no error.

• If I use Word and create a document and try to save it as a text file I get the following error 'Word cannot save for create this file. The disk may be full or write-protected. Try one or more of the following: • Free more memory •Make sure that the disk you want to save the file on is not full, write-protected, or damaged' Since all of the Apple programs as well as my text editor can save to this network share with no problem I have to believe that it is an MS Office problem. If it is a permissions problem there must be some new unique permission requirement for Office 2016.

Saving

Are there any more comments from Microsoft regarding this issue? I am very close to cancelling my subscription to Office 365 and reverting to the previous version of Office for Mac which does not have this problem. Granting permissions to the.temporaryitems folder does not solve our problem. We have reverted back to Office 2011 and have no issue. The problem arises from Office 2016 being sandboxed, which 2011 is not.

The following is a post I have created numerous times across the web, seeking solution: I’m having issues with *all* Office 2016 for Mac (v.15.24) programs being unable to write/save files other than PDF to our XSAN and user home folders. The error reads: Alert - Document Not Saved. Excel spreads (.xlsx), word docs (.docx), powerpoint (.pptx) files refuse to be written despite user permissions to the destination being Read/Write. Rosetta for mac os x download. I use OS X Server to set these permissions.
