When I switch classes, my gradebook displays a message Gradebook is locked — changes could not be saved. What is happening?
There are different kinds of locks with computers. First of all, Easy Grade Pro allows you to set a password lock on a gradebook using the Lock command (File menu) or Lock tool. With this type of lock, you cannot open your gradebook. Another type of lock is a hardware lock, usually found on floppy disks and other removable media. To unlock a disk, move the tab on the actual disk to the unlock position. A software lock, the last type of lock, is set at the operating system level. To check for this, right click on the gradebook s icon and choose Properties from the menu that appears (Windows), or select the icon and choose Get Info from the File menu (Macintosh). Look for a field titled Locked with an x in it. Another type of software lock involves network permissions. If you have to log in to your computer on a network to use it, perhaps your log-in account does not grant you permission to save data to the location of your gradebook. Contact your network administrator for help with this
