Fitting Issues

A few times a day, when i try to save, I get this message "The family is connected in a duct/pipe network and can no longer keep the connectivity. Disconnect the family from the network?" and my only option if i want to save is to disconnect the duct or pipe from the fitting. Then I can go back after i save and reconnect them, and save again and everything is fine. It seems random, it will happen on a duct I havent touched in over a week, and sometimes it happens on multiple connections at the same time, so I have had to disconnect up to ten different fittings at a time and reconnect them again, a huge waste of time since there was nothing wrong with them the way they were if it lets me save the next time I try. Anybody out there experiencing this?

Yes. It happens on pipework too.
We just leave them disconnected, which isnt very good practise, but you have to balance that against the hours you book to the project.

Ok, good to know someone else is doing that too now. It kind of ruins the whole point of Revit, that everything is a "system" and its all connected and its an actual building not just a drawing. Just one more argument that nothing is wrong with AutoCAD! Thanks for your help.

This thing is absolutely horrific.

A show-stopper.

It's even worse with a large team and the resulting worksharing issues when you CANT delete or disconnect because someone else owns the object.

Anyone have answers?

We have this issue also.
This is just *one more issue we have to deal with.
