How to get rid of error message
Vanity | 3/5/2021 | Beowulf9

Posted on 03/05/2021 4:01:55 PM PST by Beowulf9

Ok. I’m not computer genius and I don’t know if anyone knows how to tell me in a simple way how to get rid of this but when I right click on a photo and attempt to save to my IPAD photos I get this message: Cannot save photo the file couldn’t be saved (NSCocoaErrorDomain512)

I have looked this up on Google and the answers to fix this problem are bewildering to me. Stuff about strings and document file.

Is there a way to fix this easily?

Btw this is on my IPAD. I do not have a smartphone.

Are you running the current version of iOS? Are you signed into iCloud, and do you have storage enabled?

Just do a screen capture instead.
You could also try copying the link, then paste into a new browser window before you save. If you try to save a photo from some websites like Flickr like that, they won’t let you do it if the owner of the photo limits usage rights.

(NSCocoaErrorDomain512)

Try “Bosco”

Or “Ovaltine”

Otherwise, I got nothing.

How do you right-click on an iPad?

What are the properties of the file you’re trying to save: jpg, gif, png?

I never go to those websites, I just am using google images. This all just started two days ago. I’ve been right clicking on photos and saving them since I got the IPad 3 years ago.

This may help.

About Imported Cocoa Error Parameters
Learn how Cocoa error parameters are converted to Swift throwing methods.

Overview
In Cocoa, methods that produce errors take an NSError pointer parameter as their last parameter, which populates its argument with an NSError object if an error occurs. Swift automatically translates Objective-C methods that produce errors into methods that throw an error according to Swift’s native error handling functionality.

Understand How Error Parameters Are Imported
Swift examines Objective-C method declarations and translates them into Swift throwing methods, with shorter names when possible.

For example, consider the removeItem(at:) method from FileManager. In Objective-C, it’s declared like this:

- (BOOL)removeItemAtURL:(NSURL *)URL
error:(NSError **)error;
In Swift, it’s imported like this:

func removeItem(at: URL) throws
Notice that the removeItem(at:) method is imported by Swift with a Void return type, no error parameter, and a throws declaration.

If the last non-block parameter of an Objective-C method is of type NSError **, Swift replaces it with the throws keyword, to indicate that the method can throw an error. If the Objective-C method’s error parameter is also its first parameter, Swift attempts to simplify the method name further, by removing the WithError or AndReturnError suffix, if present, from the first part of the selector. If another method is declared with the resulting selector, the method name is not changed.

If an error producing Objective-C method returns a BOOL value to indicate the success or failure of a method call, Swift changes the return type of the function to Void. Similarly, if an error producing Objective-C method returns a nil value to indicate the failure of a method call, Swift changes the return type of the function to a nonoptional type.

Otherwise, if no convention can be inferred, the method is left intact.

Note

You use the NS_SWIFT_NOTHROW macro on Objective-C method declarations that produce an NSError to prevent it from being imported by Swift as a method that throws.

“This may help.”

Not for someone that doesn’t even know what iOS is!

Only helpful if you are a Swift developer, and if you’re a Swift developer, you probably already know this.

I am signed into iCloud, I just got an update to install and am installing it now but it looks kind of frou frou, something about being able to use Apple pencil features but I’ll install it.

As for storage enabled, I am not sure.

As the alien said to Betty Hill: If you don’t know where you are on the star map, what good would it do to show you where I am from?

I envy your use of the Ipad for 3 years without knowing much about it, but I think it’s time to get the geek squad subscription.
