I have a usb drive attached with some excel files. I open a file and make changes in Numbers. I try and save it as an excel file back to the same location and I get a series of messages as follows.
"the file already exist. do you want to replace it" to which I answer "Replace". 
"
Numbers cannot remove the old document. Would you like to make the old document into a backup file and then save your document?"
"An existing file can’t be removed because you may not have permission to write to the file or folder."
I select save and see this
"Numbers cannot create a backup file. Would you like to save the current version of your file anyway?"
"A backup file can’t be created because you may not have permission to write to the file or folder, or there is not enough space on the disk."
I select save and see this
"The document “CIS265 Chapter 1-4 Qizzes.numbers” could not be exported as “CIS265 Chapter 1-4 Qizzes.xls”. "
"The file “/Volumes/New Volume/CIS265 Winter 2011/Quizzes and Tests/CIS265 Chapter 1-4 Qizzes.xls” couldn’t be found."
Can someone tell me what my problem is
