Hi Derek, Gyle - thanks for the responses. I'd like to add one other error message - perhaps it will be helpful. When I try to go the File -> Open route, I get a slightly different error message (though it still doesn't work). The error message I get here is below.
--- Could not read the contents of <directory> Error opening directory '/Users/<username>/OneDrive/<subdirectory>': Operation not permitted --- Not sure if that means anything to anyone - but I figured I'd add it anyway in case it helps!

Right now it sounds like GnuCash cannot see the OneDrive directory. I am hoping JRalls can pipe up and provide some insights, as he is our resident Mac expert. -derek On Tue, July 20, 2021 2:07 pm, Gyle McCollam wrote: > I use one drive as well, but I have no problem with GNU Cash finding > the info.
