"Application already in use?"

everytime i try to install Adobe Flash Player, it installs to 50% then says "application already in use"..even though I went to uninstall/change programs and all I have from adobe is adobe reader and adobe air. please help:(((

It sounds like you're on windows based on what you stated.  If you are, have you closed all of your web browsers?  Have you also initiated the Task Manager (Start Menu>Run>taskmgr.exe).  The Task Manager allows you to see processes that are running.  It may be a bit confusing to see all of the processes but if you see anything that looks like FlashPlayer in the Image Name.... well report back and tell us what you see in the Image Names as far as Task Manager is concerned (Processes Tab)..

  • Trouble with Flash Player: Application Already In Use

    Hello,
    I'm trying to install Flash Player on my Windows 8 64-bit system for Firefox. When I try to install Flash Player, the installer works fine up to the point of the bar tracking the installation progress. It gets about halfway across, and then I get a message that says Error: Application Already In Use with a green check next to it. Then the installer tells me that the installation has failed. Can anyone tell me how to fix this so I can use Flash? Thanks for the help.

    Use the Offline installer:
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player.exe <---FULL installer - works offline
    or
    http://download.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/win/install_flash_player_ 13_plugin.msi  <-- if the above link won't install
    Save it. Reboot and then run it.

  • Could not complete your request because the file is already in use or was left open by another application

    the message :could not complete your request because the file is already in use or was left open by another application, comes up when i try to open a specific file in PS cs5. nothing is open and i have restarted my imac already and still no solution

    Well, then you do want your layered file back and the nice thing about Macs, Time Machine does keep hourly backups on your Mac. You should be able to enter Time Machine and restore that file.
    I had hoped opening your file in another app might relase it so you could open it in PS.

    Anyone else getting this when trying to update their apps description on iTunes Connect?

    I get this error, too, and have been getting it since my app launched (about 2 weeks ago). My first email to [email protected] was met with a "We're working on it" reply, but they have been ignoring me since. Pretty frustrating.

  • Can i use the maps application already existing on my i phone in an offline mode?

    can i use the maps application -already existing in iphone 4- in an offline mode?

    No. It downloads the maps as it needs them.
    A very small portion of the map is cached in memory when offline, so you can see the last area you looked at, but as soon as you want to move the map, or look elsewhere it will need an internet connection to download from Google.
    There are standalone map apps available in the AppStore if you search for the area you want.

  • Weblogic.application.ModuleException: Context path is already is use

    Hi,
    I am using ALSB 3.0 and I am trying to deploy a ALSB configuration jar. I am seeing the following exception during deployment.
    +weblogic.application.ModuleException: Context path '/alsb/internal/transports/ejb/UserAccounts_1_0_businessservices_C-6414' is already in use by the module: /alsb/internal/transports/ejb/UserAccounts_1_0_businessservices_C-6414 application: EJBALSB_1290003713346+
    If i restart the Weblogic server and redeploy it works. I will not have the convenience of restart on the production systems. I need to nail this issue on my test system and I am looking for help.
    My configuration details are
    SunOS camden 5.10 Generic_120011-14 sun4v sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T2000
    WebLogic Server 10.0 MP1
    AquaLogic Service Bus 3.0.0.0
    java version "1.5.0_21"
    My set up is as below
    One Admin server and two Managed server which are in a cluster. All deployments are done using the Admin server.
    The ALSB configuration Jar uses the ALSB business service to lookup to a JNDI provider.
    I am a newbie and I am not sure if I have provided all the details for someone to help me out. Please let me know if you need more information.
    Thank you.
    Support.

    Looking at the information provided I assume that you are modifying some BS related to EJB and activating the session with new changes.
    Instead of restarting servers you can also see if this workaround is working.
    1) disable the BS and commit the session
    2) modify changes to BS and enable BS and commit session.
    Let me know if the above work-around is working.Ideally we should not see the behavior what you are observing. Track it through support to get a fix. While activating the changes, OSB deletes the old resource and creates a new resource. During this stage something is going wrong inside OSB (clash of JNDI names for old and new resources OSB deploys).
    I also vaguely remember that some issues with JNDI that got resolved in later releases.Please check with support to confirm if there is an existing patch already.
    My two cents

  • How will the new OSX Mavericks affect applications already installed and using Mountain Lion?

    How will the new OSX Mavericks affect applications already installed and using Mountain Lion?

    If you're asking about compatibility, that would be something you would need to ask of the app developers, though most apps compatible with Mountain Lion should be compatible with Mavericks. You can also consult the tables here:
    http://roaringapps.com/apps
    though that information comes from user reports and so should not be considered authoritative.
    If you're asking whether installing Mavericks will delete your apps, no, it won't, though a good backup is always highly recommended.

  • Error message: Could not save copy as "C:..." because the file is already in use or left open by another application

    I always get the Errormessage: Could not save copy as "C:..." bacause the file is already in use or left open by another alpplication
    while trying to save a file as a jpg. even when the file is not left open or in use.. .

    Without knowing exact technical details, nobody can say anything. From genuine issues with your storage devices like block errors or fragmentation to specific security stuff causing delays and blockages in writing files anything is imaginable. Your info is simply insufficient to make even a superficial diagnosis beyond those generics.

  • How can I create a host name site collection when I have a 443 web application already created for App model?

    Hi all,
    I have a 2013 farm set up with the App model
    1 web application for path based site collection using host name
    1 web application with SSL (no host name)
    1 web application for mysite
    My business request is that  I need to migrate SSL enabled 2007 content to this farm and use host name site collections.  I tried to create one more web application for this without any luck (the 443 IIS folder is already used by another web application). 
    I thought I bind the previous 443 web application with another IP address should be fine.  Seems like the IIS site is taken (https://server name:443) so it will not let me create one more.  How can I solve this problem so I can create the web application
    to host those host name site collections?  Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Sally

    Hi Trevor,
    Thanks again for your quick reply.  I try the option 2 right after your post.  I use my front end server name for public URL (https://WFEName:443) and it fails again.  The error message is:
    The directory C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\443 is already being used by another IIS Web Site.  Choose a different root directory for your new Web application.
    After reading more, I saw mix Hosted Name Site collection and Path-based site collection aren't recommended.  Unfortunately I already have Path-based site collection created with App model web application
    (the web application without host name) in my farm.  In my Option 2, that web application without host name is used for App routing.  This takes the root folder 443 which will not allow any other web application to use the same name again. 
    Does that mean we can't create Host Named Site collection in the same farm?  Is there any configuration I need to check?
    Thanks again.

  • Mail keeps crashing because: "Mailbox cannot access your mailbox information because it's already in use."

    I have the new MacBook Pro with Retina Display, and my Apple Mail has always worked just fine. About a week ago, I recieve a message saying "Mail cannot access your mailbox information because it’s already in use." The dialogue box gave me the options of "Rebuilding Mailbox Information" or quitting the application. Rebuilding does absolutely nothing, and every time I try to open Mail I get the same response and have to quit. I haven't added any apps or anything that would affect my mail; what's going on? Thanks!

    Try this first.

  • My Time Capsule won't allow my computer to back up.  It says it is already in use but that is what it is being used for.

    My Time Capsule won't allow my computer to back up.  It says it is already in use but that is what it is being used for. It has been working fine for years.  All of a sudden I keep getting a message that TC (time capsule) cannot complete back up as it is already in use.  I am doing the backups automatically through Time Capsule.

    Restart the Time Capsule by disconnecting and reconnecting the power adapter. When it's back online, open the AirPort Utility application and check to see whether there's a firmware update for it.

  • Error occurred in deployment step 'Add Solution': The definition specifies a claim provider with a name already in use.

    Hi,
    When i am trying to deploy sharepoint 2010 application in VS 2010, i am getting the below error:
    "Error occurred in deployment step 'Add Solution': The definition specifies a claim provider with a name already in use."
    How to fix this?
    Thank you

    You can use:
    $provider = Get-SPClaimProvider | where {$_.DisplayName -eq "Provider DisplayName"}
    $mgr = Get-SPClaimProviderManager
    $mgr.ClaimProviders.Remove($prov)
    $mgr.Update()

  • Audio Stream Recorder - Error: Audio device is already being used by another prog

    I realized that Audio Stream Recorder is does not "work" through server list feature. So I am simply trying to use the manual method of adding URL's to the interface. However regardless of the type of stream, shoutcast, windows media or real audio, I receive the error "audio device is already being used by another program". Does anyone know how to fix this? I have closed my audio application etc to no avail. <RANT WARNING> I was very excited about using this application when I read about it. However an application that provides none of the stated features is not an application, its false advertising, since it clearly states on the box, help files and website this products "features". Anyway, it'ss very disappointing. Also, does anyone know what the supported steaming formats are, the help file say the application requires RealONE and Windows Media Player but does not mention audio stream formats? Thanks you in advance for any help.

    I have the same issue. I updated to the latest software, to no avail. My first suspicion is that some Microsoft patch caused this, but I cannot verify this.
    Apparently no one at Creative is very interested in this issue.

  • My computer was hacked I had to install an earlier version of the disc provided for my mac and I have lost all of my applications already existing on my mac including iPhoto, and all other application. I am wondering how to get them back? I am in Japan

    My computer was hacked using a softbank pocket wifi, I had to install an earlier version of the disc provided for my mac reset my user password and I still need to recover my administrator password that was altered. I have lost all of my applications already existing on my mac including iPhoto, and all other applications. I am wondering how to get them back?

  • "Could not save x.jpg because the file is already in use or was left open...

    Win 7 pro 64, CS5.0 using InDesign 7.0.4 and Photoshop 12.0.4 x64.
    Using InDesign to create a manuscript with images. Right click on image to "Edit Original"
    Opens image in Photoshop. Make changes, go to save.
    Error message "Could not save x.jpg because the file is already in use or was left open by another application"
    Using a free utility called Unlocker Assistant, it shows that the file has been locked by InDesign
    The workaround is to then use Unlocker Assistant to unlock the image in in the Links folder, but this is a pain and it is happening too frequently.
    Putting in that error message I get no google matches.
    Anyone know why Indesign is locking the image, when it is the InDesign program that is supposed to be sending it to Photoshop for editing so it can be changed and then overwrite the original image?
    Note that it is not consistent but I cannot find any pattern to determine why it sometimes fails and other times allows the altered image to be saved.

    You will get a quicker response to post this in the InDesign Fourm http://forums.adobe.com/community/indesign/indesign_general
