Running on an early M1 powered Macbook air. Upgraded to MacOS 15.3. Noticed that Mac Pages no longer auto-saves. What am I missing?

Fails to autosave after initial save on the local drive or brand-x cloud service?


You will know if Pages v14.3 is not autosaving because there will be a black dot in the document's title bar red traffic light until you manually save again. If that dot does not appear, then autosaving is operational and happens about every ~10 seconds when changes are detected. Provided the save is to a supported filesystem.



One can prevent autosave in Pages on macOS v15.3 by enabling System Settings > Desktop & Dock > Ask to keep changes when closing documents ( ⚪️). If that is set, disable it.


You may need to save, close the document, and relaunch Pages after the above change for autosave to be reinstated in the application.
