I uploaded a song that I was working on and made some changes but, I can't save it. I quit BIAB and reload it and try a new file and I still can't save it.

What steps are you taking to save the file?
What happens when you try and save the file?

I try to save the way I normally do. I click on File, then save or save as. Nothing happens when I click on save. The menu disappear but it doesn't save the file.

What OS are you running? There could be issues with Monterey.

No, not Monterey.
From the description, I'm guessing BIAB is picking an unexpected directory to save the file in.

It was working fine. It stopped saving files after I opened a song from 2018 and I made some changes on the chords. Then I couldn’t save it or any other song I created afterwards.

The issue has been fixed. I updated the Mac OS to Monterey 12.1 BIAB is saving the songs now.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
