Read only cannot save Error message

[owo]

Hopefully owo (Jeff) might chip in to let us know if he found a solution - but after looking at the code, only 3 things can cause this:-

1) If the file ending in .ardour is marked as read-only - OR
2) If that file's folder is marked as read-only - OR
3) If the drive volume itself is read-only.

Item 3 might seem unlikely but it can happen when an OS doesn't fully support the volume partition. For example, MacOS doesn't fully support NTFS. So if you mount an NTFS volume in MacOS it'll treat it as read-only.

The only work around I had was putting a folder on my desktop for my current projects. And I wouldn't get the read only anymore. Sorry it took so long I didn't see this post...
