Not sure what else to do. I would really like to get this working so any help would be appreciated. FWIW, read-only on a folder has no appreciable effect. It's generally used by the Windows shell to indicate that the folder is special (eg My Documents, My Music etc). It doesn't stop you writing files in that directory. Not sure how much Windows-fu you have, so apols if any of this is teaching my grandmother to suck eggs... I'm not familiar with the app you mention but make sure that the user it's running under (which may be your own) has permissions to write the file you're trying to save in the location in question. Ie, as that user, do this in Python: open (u'D:/My Music/Ani DiFranco/Canon/Disc 1\\folder.jpg', w) to see if you get the same result. If you do, access the [Security] tab on the folder itself, select [Advanced] and then the [Effective Permissions] tab to make sure what the permissions really are. As a rule, My xxx folders tend to have more restrictive permissions as they are tied to a specific user. This only matters, obviously, if the app is not running as your own user.

What about permissions on the file itself? -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
