Save data not writing, gamecube

[andodel]

So I've known about Dolphin for a while, but it didn't run well on my old mac. Got a new mac recently, and now I can actually upscale games, use AA, etc. However, I'm having save issues. First game I tried was Resident Evil, tried saving, said it couldn't write the save file. So what should I do? Obviously I can't just plug in my GC memory card, so would I have to upload info from it? I'd rather not go through that hassle, took me long enough to get the game on here. Any way I can just make a new save file? Also, yes, I am running as admin and all permissions are set to read and write.
