Maya 2018 Can't Save or Export Scene

[Anonymous]

Hello, I am an online 3D animation student for the summer. I wanted to save my torso modeling work and save the scene but I got this message and then the next.

And then this.

I've reinstalled it and this happened again. 

Oh and this what happened when I export it.

Please contact ASAP. Please and Thank you.

No guarantee this will work but consider the following : 

+ Save in a folder that you have permissions to save in. Your are attempting to save in / and /Library. That is not the standard place to save. Try your desktop. If that works, send me a personal message and I will explain.

+ Do not have spaces or special characters in your name. So "pleaseSave.ma" is good by "please save!.ma" is not. 

+ Make sure you have enough disk space to save. 

+ Learn how to access the script editor and post any additional warnings/errors.

I hope one of these works.
