When I try to Render My Cinema 4D Lite file the SAVE option does not give me the option to add a location on where to save the file. When I try to render anyways I get the "There is no File name specified for the rendering image" message. Can someone please provide guidance on how to fix this issue? Below is a screen capture of my Save screen in render settings
You cannot render directly from C4D Lite. This only works with Cineware from within AE.

I am working in AE and when I click on "Edit" and then "Edit Original" this is where I am trying to edit and save My render. How do I save this then?

You render via After Effects as Mylenium said. You can NOT render from Cinema 4D Lite.

I created in C4D Lite and Rendered in After Effects CC. But when I rendered, the MoGraph rendered with the GuideLines. How do I render without Guidelines?

Rick, I agree wholeheartedly with the above user - that level of condescension (and time-wasting for yourself as well) isn't very constructive. It assumes a host of ridiculous notions. Help, or don't help - it's a large world, and many people want to be genuinely helpful to newer users.

Rick, that was a real lousy answer.

Rick, you of all people should know that most people "study" by utilizing community resources like forums, tutorials, and the guidance of seasoned pros. The only thing one accomplishes by belittling a novice is to make it painfully obvious how deeply one's slipped into the grumpy, "can't-do-teach" category of chatroom trolls.
I followed the steps in this link provided above by Terry Gillespie, and it worked like a charm.

Why you can't save the render file location in Cinema 4D Lite
Cinema 4D Lite does not allow you to save the render file location. This is a limitation of the Lite version. To save your render file, you need to export it to After Effects using Cineware.
