Default 12.2.1 can't save to firewire 800 drive

Error message
Could not save "" because Invalid argument (22) while opening "qrqrYBHTgfbxYMFX".
seems that protools is adding garbled characters to session names.

Default Re: 12.2.1 can't save to firewire 800 drive

I am having this problem. I can save sessions on my native HD and my Glyph FW 800 but not my LaCie FW 800 drive. Same message. I am using PT 11.3.1 and I have updated my iLok manager in case that had something to do with it. Going to possibly try reformatting my LaCie HD. Any help solving issue would be great!

UPDATE: I read somewhere I should restart my Mac and it worked. While doing so I also reset my SMC and PRAM for good measure. It now saves to the laCie HD. Hope this helps others!
