after a bit of a layoff and a MacOS upgrade or two, i'm back to
using QGIS for a project. just upgraded to the current LTR,
running on Big Sur.
can anyone shed light on how to deal with the MacOS permission
system? I can load up the shapefiles fine, pick out the features
i need, but when i go to export that layer, it's complaining about
a read only file system. i'm not at all clear on where to find
& fix the settings.
Richard, could it be that you only provide a name for the export? In the dialog
it is intuitive to only type a name, but actually you need to browse to a
directory first (using the little dots next to the input) and THEN add a name.
Without the path QGIS tries to save it in 'current dir' which is probably the
directory in which QGIS is installed...
Note this is my experience with other users on Windooz, I'm not a mac owner/user
