Problem with saving patchers

    Hi there
    I've literally just downloaded the free max trial so sorry if this is an obvious question. When I save a patcher and choose the destination for it to be saved in, it never saves to that file. When I conduct a finder search it turns out its always been saved to:
    "Macintosh HD > Applications > Max 6.1 > patches > templates > filename.maxpat"
    What am I doing wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

      One possible reason: Max doesn’t support filenames and folder names that have a slash (‘/’) in the name. You could try saving your patch to the desktop and see if that works.

      Perfect! I had a '/' in the name of the folder I was trying to save too. Took it out and it works fine now.
      Thanks for the quick response.
