Hi everyone Thanks for all your help. Problem solved! Pupils it turns out can navigate to the H: drive which is actually the same as their home drive, but not their usual way of getting there- usually they would use Documents icon but that uses a URL I passed on some of your comments and IT found them useful

Thanks for all the advice, that's great. I'll run some of those tips past my IT guys later in the week

Hi Kevin That's beyond my level of knowledge. I will check with the IT guys but they are away until Thursday. I suspect the latter , my drive at school is labelled \\scfc\shared$ I notice also that its not that I can't save at all - I can go to File / save and it will save in the Cakewalk projects folder. But I want the students to save in their own home drive so they can open the file on any computer, and projects folder is local. So the problem is going File - Save as and trying to search for a folder to save in Donald

Hi there I've been using Cakewalk /SONAR for 20 years in the music department I run in the UK and I love it. Since SONAR X1 was discontinued I looked for a replacement commercial program for ages, thinking we would need to eventually switch. I can't find anything that suits my needs as well as SONAR X1 however and we are still using it. But as it will probably at some point stop working I thought we will need to switch eventually - so recently I thought, why not switch to Cakewalk by bandlab, which I have on my home computer. So we trialled this at school and everything works well EXCEPT - I can't save the files! When you go to Save or Save As something very weird happens where it creates a new folder as soon as you start typing and then won't let you save in that folder. Can anybody help / give some tips for my IT guys at school (who are great) as to whether we can sort this? Is Cakewalk set up so that it won't run in a network environment? Cheers Donald Manson
