Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

Hi Benjamin,

Please specify you AutoCAD version and macOS version you have on your Mac.
How complex is your finished draft?
Do you have issues with saving drawings with only a few lines in it?

>>>>>IVE BEEN ABLE TO SAVE FINISHED WORK BEFORE JUST FINE
How long ago was this BEFORE? Have you installed some system updates recently?

BTW: Please don't use capitalised text, it is very hard to read such text.

AUTOCAD LT 2020 FOR MAC

The drafts are very basic 2d, I do layouts for septic system installs.

Try to Reset AutoCAD: menu AutoCAD LT -> Reset AutoCAD.
Then try to reproduce your steps (saving at last stage).

Plus:
You have not answered other questions:
- Do you have issues with saving drawings with only a few lines in it?
- How long ago was this BEFORE? Have you installed some system updates recently?

And here another one:
If you are able to save drawing during editing till some moment, what are the last steps after which AutoCAD freezes on save?
