How do I avoid the error message when I try to shut down the computer even when I try the recommended proceedure?

I'm having trouble closing down for the night and I get the note "The program must close to allow a previous installation attempt to complete "
I got these directions for my XP from the support page
1. Click on the Start button and select Search to open the Search Results window.
2. On the left side of the Search Results window, click on the All files and folders link.
3. Click to expand the More advanced options list.
4. Put a check mark next to Search system folders, Search hidden files and folders, and Search subfolders.
5. In the All or part of the file name field, type xpicleanup.dat.
6. Click Search to begin the search.
7. If any results are returned, delete them.
8. Restart Firefox.
And no results are returned.
What should I try next?

Hi Rambo,
Thank you for contacting National Instruments.  From the information you have provided here, its sounds like a couple of different things can be causing this issue.  In looking at some previous instances where this error code was reported when using the application builder, it would be worthwhile to look at the file name field and the location the VIs are saved. 
Take a look at the field where the file name is provided and ensure only the name is in this location.  By this I mean that the file path and name aren't both concatenated and entered here.
Also, if the VIs are saved in the user library or the vi library see if it makes any difference if they are moved to another directory. 
I hope this helps!  If not, any other possible information that you have or may come upon would definitely be helpful.  Have a great day!

  • I was trying to figure out how to stop my pinned apps from disappearing after I've shut-down my computer during storms. In the process of trying things I lost the Orange Firefox drop down box in the upper left corner. How do I get it back?

    Question 1 - How do I restore the Orange Firefox drop-down box that was originally at the top of the screen.
    Question 2 - How do I undo the last command I changed
    Question 3 - How do I prevent my pinned apps from disappearing. I have about 10 loaded and it's a pain to have to reload those several days a week. Seems to only happen if I shut down the computer.

    You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden.

    *Right-click a toolbar).
    *Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
    Make sure that you do not use "Clear Recent History" to clear the "Browsing History" when Firefox is closed because that prevails and prevents Firefox from opening tabs from the previous session.

    Please can someone help me to solve the error message "Could not activate cellular data network: PDP authentication failure"when using 3G or GPRS on safari with an iphone 4GS and latest software updates. I have tried resetting the network and phone settings. I have restored the factory settings on itunes and still the problem persists.

    All iPhones sold in Japan are sold carrier locked and cannot be officially unlocked by the carrier. If you unlocked it, it was by unauthorized means (hacked), and support cannot be given to you in this forum.
    Hacked iPhones are subject to countermeasures by Apple, particularly when updating the firmware. It is likely permanently re-locked or permanently disabled.

    In the simplest sense, archiving a file means making a copy that you never change and never discard. You already know how to do that.
    iPhoto has built-in archival features, in the sense that it saves all versions of an image that you've modified. As long as you have adequate backups, you don't necessarily have any reason to archive an iPhoto library. If you want to delete images from the working library but still have access to them in case you change your mind, then you do need to archive those images. I don't have a specific suggestion as to how you should do that. You might post a question in the iPhoto forum.

  • Firefox will not show links to flv files. I get the error message for each flv file: "File not found. Firefox can't find the file at (path) .flv." Any mov and swf files in this same path will show. I can see the videos in Safari so the paths are correct.

    Firefox will not show links to flv files. I get the error message for each flv file: "File not found. Firefox can't find the file at http:// (path) .flv." Any mov and swf files in this same path will show. I can see the videos in Safari so the paths are correct.

    Is this a webpage that contains a link to a flv file? Please post a link to the page and tell us which link(s) are the problem flv files or else post a link to the .flv file itself.
    Alternately, click on one of the sample FLV File links on this page and tell us exactly what happens:
    http://www.mediacollege.com/adobe/flash/video/tutorial/example-flv.html
    It might also help if you post the exact error message, including the path to the flv file.
    '''Note:'''
    Depending on how you have Firefox set up, clicking on a FLV File link will either save the FLV file to your computer or Firefox may open it automatically in an external application right after downloading (Firefox may ask you first). Firefox itself can't play FLV files so you need a "helper" application (or a plugin for flv files, if ther is one. You can see if Firefox is already set up to download or open FLV files by going to Firefox Preferences and looking in the Applications list. Find the FLV file type in the list and, if the action is "Open with", it should show the application that can play FLV files (e.g., VLC Media Player or Perian). See [[Managing filetypes]] for more information.

  • Error message caused by an improper shut down

    Hi
    When I try and lunch the web services from server admin I get this message in the log.
    Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 192.168.1.15 port 80
    Is this error message caused by an improper shut down, the apache processes are still hanging around and apachectl restart won't work.
    How can I clear them
    Thanks
    Message was edited by: stevewaters

    That message could be caused by many things - either a pre-existing copy of Apache, or some other process altogether.
    Did you install/enable Apache 2 on your server? If so, that could be the problem since Server Admin only knows how to manage Apache 1.3, so can't restart Apache 2.0.
    You can use the command-line tool lsof to find which process is listening to port 80. You'll then need to make the call as to how to fix it - either by shutting down the process, killing it, or changing the port that your Server Admin configuration listens to:
    <pre class=command>sudo lsof -i :80</pre>

    Thank you for your reply BDAqua.
    Yes I ran short and the Extended Test. All pass. One of the first things I did is Safe Boot several times I also repaired permissions. Safe boot takes no longer than before the crashes and as long as I stay in safe boot mode it won't crash. What does that mean?I also ran MacJanitor and removed the SCCUZI card Apple put in when I bought the G4 as well as an M-Audio Delta 66 card which I do not use (both) anymore. I also started up on an external firewire drive 10.4.6. It also (crashes) does the same thing.
    I was hoping somebody understands the crash report I enclosed? Isn't that suppose to say what went wrong?
    Thank you again for your input BDAqua

  • I was editing photos in my iphotos and it says Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable on me.  I shut down my computer and when I restarted I can not access my photos, it keeps giving me

    I was editing photos in my iphotos and it froze on me.  So I shut down my computer and when I restarted I now can not access them.  It says Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable.  What can I do to fix this?

    What you're describing is the Finder window for your external hard drive.  When you're in iPhoto and try to edit a photo what happens?
    Are you saying that the photos for your iPhoto library are located on the external HD while your library is in the Pictures folder on the boot drive? That would indicate a referenced library.  You can check to see if you're running a referenced library by checking the Advanced Preference pane in iPhoto:
    Click to view full size
    So based one the Advanced preference pane in iPhoto what type of library are you running. Where is the library itself located?  It should look like this:
    By default it should be located in your Users/Home/Pictures folder. However, it could be run on an external HD.

  • Each time i try syncing my ipod with itunes, it freezes itunes and i end up having to shut down my computer.  This happened after the latest download, any suggestions?

    each time i try syncing my ipod with itunes, it freezes itunes and i end up having to shut down my computer.  This started happening after the latest download and my latest purchase.  The latest purchase doesn't show up on my iPod and itunes freezes at synching step 2 on 2.  Any suggestions?

    You should Reset your iPod, by
    1. Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 Secs till the Apple Logo comes ON.
    2. Disconnect the sync cable.
    3. Check the iPod Welcome screen, select language, go to menu (if you are lucky, your music are still on the iPod.)
    if your iPod doesn't show the Welcome screen, bring it to Apple Store.
    If the above is okay, (can see Menu but no Music)
    4. Close iTunes and Reboot your PC.
    5. Start iTunes
    6. Connect the iPod to the Sync cable.
    7. if iTunes ask to Restore, please do so.
    8. Sync your iPod. ( I would advise you to disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus program when doing this.)
    Good Luck.

  • Receiving a serious error message and premiere 9 must shut down

    When i open the program i get the welcome screen then i click to open a new or existing file and i get a gray background with a error message "sorry a serious error has occurred that requires adobe premiere elements to shutdown.We will attempt to save your current project'' The program worked fine a few weeks ago now it is not.

    lightsups
    Just some questions specific to Premiere Elements 9 with Premiere Elements details.
    For now I am assuming that you are using Premiere Elements 9 on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
    Please go to Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disk and tell us to what hard drive location you have
    pointed the Scratch Disks and how much free space is at that location.
    Then please go to Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/9.0 and tell us how many files you
    find in the Adobe Premiere Elements Previews Files Folder and the Media Cache Files Folder. Delete
    the content of of either folder if it has pile ups of files. Also go to Edit Menu/Preferences/Media and hit
    the Clean button in the Media Cache Database area there.
    Please delete the Adobe Premiere Elemens Prefs file or the 9.0 Folder in which it exists. The path to
    the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file in Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 is
    Local Disk C
    Users
    Owner
    AppData
    Roaming
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    9.0
    and in the 9.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work,
    then delete the whole 9.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists. Make sure the
    you are working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see
    the complete path cited.
    I am assuming that you have been and are running the program from a User Account with Administrative
    Privileges and that you have the latest version of QuickTime installed. But good to double check. In addition, even
    if you are working from a User Account with Administrative Privileges, right click the Premiere Elements 9 desktop
    icon and click on Run As Administrator.
    Let us pause here, review the above, and then decide what is next.
    Thanks.

  • How do you shut down a computer safely when Finder is not responding?

    I've been having some problem with my Mac OS X lately where Aperture has been "not responding". Stupidly, I used forced shutdown of that program until I learned how bad this is.  So today I'm working on my mac (trying to learn what's wrong with Aperture) and the  beachball for Finder starts spinning and the program is not responding. How do I restart or shut down without damaging anything? I could "force quit" but don't know if this is bad for Finder, as it is bad for Aperture.  Help!

    Hi suzyfromks,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    If a single application is unresponsive, you don't have any other option but to Force Quit.
    Then I would suggest quitting your other open applications normally, and starting the computer in Safe Mode as explained in this article.
    Mac OS X: How to troubleshoot a software issue
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1199
    Regarding Aperture, I would suggest making sure you have a Time Machine backup of your computer, and follow these troubleshooting steps:

Ugh this is so annoying because even if I leave the message open and continue work on another window, it will refresh and become the active window again making me have to click to a different window again to repeat work. Typing this forum entry, for instance, was a pain in the butt because of this.
