SKP on mac can NOT save file, stuck on "save" diaglog box

HI, running skp on Mac, sometimes I do not want to save a file, but when the save diaglog box comes up, I cannot click on “don’t save”, “cancel” or “save”, I have press Enter to get out of the diaglog box, which saves the file. Not sure if this is a Mac OS or Sketchup issue?

Hardware:

Macbook Pro 16-inch Nov 2023

M3 Max

64GB

Tahoe 26.2

Software:

Sketchup Pro 26.1.188

What is the save location?

Please update your forum profile. It’s clearly all wrong.

I couldn’t say as I’m not on Tahoe. I make it a policy to hang back a bit on MacOS versions for the sake of reliability. Have you recently installed or moved to Tahoe 26.2?

I dunno. I’m running SU 2026 on Tahoe 26.2.1 and though there are some issues I haven’t hit that one.

on a server

it was installed on the powerbook when i bought it, i bought used.

If SketchUp could access the server location quickly enough you could have problems.

Working on files saved directly to a server or to the cloud is risky. Many users have ended up with fatally corrupted files by doing that.

Update your forum profile.

OMG, am too busy just realized I still have profile from 2019.

It makes sense Dave! However it doesn’t happen on my much older desktop PC, nor on my old powerbook running SU2025.

profile updated.

Mouse clicks still not working in Save dialog box, meaning I have to press “enter” on the keyboard to get out of the Save dialog box, cannot “Don’t Save”. I do notice sometimes in Adobe, mouse click does not work in some dialog boxes, can’t remember exactly which dialog box on which app.

File saved on local drive did not help.

This leads me to think it might be an Apple issue rather than a software issue. not sure.

Have you tried using a different mouse?
