Neil,

Consider adjusting your preferences for Mac updates. I had a similar 
problem years ago and turned off automatic installing updates. I still 
get a notification and then it nags me if I don't get to it manually, 
but that allows me to decide when to update and avoid losing data that 
for whatever reason is not, or cannot be, saved at the moment.


Regards,
Adrien

Hello Gyle

Thank you for that. Unfortunately overnight my computer (Apple Mini M1) 
rebooted for some unknown reason and I lost it all anyway. But thanks for your 
help. Yes, I did upgrade too soon, and should have known better. It was my 
mistake, not theirs.

I just want to add that, like you, I am extremely grateful for the work done by 
all the developers to keep GNUCash updated. I am a retired Accountant and find 
it excellent for small business accounting which I do in a small way to help 
small businesses get on their feet.

Best regards
Neil

Re: [GNC] gnucash - Can't Save file

2023-06-26 Thread Gyle McCollam
Changing to saving the file uncompressed by changing it in preferences is the 
best temporary solution.  That is one of the problems with upgrading too soon.  
The developers do their best, but no one is prefect. I for one am very grateful 
for their efforts.

Neil,

given that there are 2 workarounds to save your file suggested in the message 
posted at 00:29 (UK time) by john Ralls, you have no need to lose 2 hours of 
work.

but if you have already lost the chance to save and exited GC without saving, 
maybe a log reply will get you some of the lost time back?

HTH,
Maf.

Experience can be a harsh teacher.  You could print a report of those
transactions to PDF then try screen scraping them after you go back to 5.1,
but I don't hold out much hope for success.

Re: [GNC] gnucash - Can't Save file

2023-06-26 Thread Stephen M. Butler

If you turn off compression, you will be able to save the file.

Also, I have pulled down the first 9 patches to 5.2 and can verify that 
on my Ubuntu box the file save to a compressed file does work.

I do have full permissions and have since saved non-GNUcash files to these

Sort of general advice for any help list (not specific to gnucash)

Whenever you have a problem, before posting your request for help, LOOK
at recent entries to the list, say the last week or so. You want to see
if there have been a number of people reporting the same problem that
you have and are receiving answers about it. If so, these is no need to
add your plea for help to all the others. Not particularly helpful.

Yes, there is a problem with 5.2

Yes there are suggestion about what to do
