I've hit the same problem here at the end of 2019, 3.5 years since this thread began. I can't quite remember why I stopped using it now. When I get a moment, I'll go back to OpenOffice - it's compatible for Office Users and will do what I need. However, I am paying Microsoft monthly for this crappy product.

This time I copied all, opened a new document and saved it to that. Someone earlier on suggested changing the file type - but that only works if the Save As box comes up. Want to save it (but only means overwrite). I had the usual symptoms - 'Save As' pretends it doesn't exist, and if you try to close the doc it asks if you I just took one important document, adapted it to create another and then realised that I'd be overwriting the original. Also, if one is creating a new document one doesn't see this. I think there must be a loop that gets muddled after a while as, if I switch everything off and on again, it behaves okay for a bit so I forget there's a problem. Sometimes it will save as and sometimes not. I have just been struggling along for ages.

Interested to see it wasn't just Mac people having this problem. It is insane, but the only way I have been able to work since this happened is to FIRST open Finder and copy the file I want to start with (TEST.docx) and then paste it into the same folder (it will create TEST copy.docx). Is there some issue with Finder not playing nice with Office? But even worse that that, if I try to create a NEW document,, and then try to even just File | Save it. Worse than that, if I try to 'File | Save As.' again, the dialogue window does not even open!ДҐ. HOWEVER, the file name in the Word window remains TEST and there is no 'TEST 2.docx' file anywhere on my computer.Д¤. That opens a dialogue window to navigate where I want to save it, so I type in a new file name 'TEST 2.docx' and click on the 'Save' button, and the dialogue window disappears.ДЈ. docx file (let's say it is TEST.docx) and then decide I want to save it as a new document, so I pull down 'File | Save As.'Дў. pretty much what everyone is saying here. That worked well enough until about a week ago when I discovered some very strange behavior when trying to save files. I had Word 2008 for Mac on my Mac running just fine for years until my antivirus started complaining that it was not safe, so I upgraded to Office 2016 for Mac about two months ago.

I Has anyone had the problem after working in I-Cloud? Could the I-Cloud settings have made some universal change? I had dragged things into i-cloud to try to get them to transfer from one drive to I thought it was just my set up because I am trying to migrate documents on a Seagate drive that was not ex-fat formatted and the issue there on the MAC is that it opens only a Read Only copy of anything saved on an external drive It also shows the message that docx is the xml-based format that is used and it 'cannot store VBA macro code.'
