# Unable to Create Modes

> Resolve issues with creating or saving modes in Superwhisper.

## Overview

When you enable iCloud Documents syncing on your Mac, the Superwhisper folder may automatically move to iCloud. However, the application might still reference its original location. This mismatch prevents Superwhisper from creating new modes and can cause other functionality issues.
