Can not re-name files or folders

I just installed security update 2009-002, now Finder will not allow me to change a file name or folder name. I also can not "Get info" when an item is selected. All of these things are met by my Mac going blank except for the wallpaper and then redisplaying my desktop with all the usual icons. It also sometimes opens a new folder view. I can rename a file remotely using a windows computer on the network. Any ideas on how to fix this? Having to rename things remotely will get old very fast.
Before the security update I did not have this problem.

Hi there,
Most likely it's Stuffit AVR, though a few others have been implicated see if System Preferences has a Stuffit Pref Pane. click stop...
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1873700&tstart=0
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for action in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot and not in Safe Mode, then it is likely some 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Also see what is in System Preferences>Other Row.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

    Hi,
    We face the same problem with some BI4 reports.
    The same report works well with the "Crystal Reports Viewers API", as used in Infoview, but not with the "Report Application Server (RAS) API".
    This error appears after some time working on a report. If we reproduce the same report, but from zero, no problem.
    Hope it can help.

  • I can not download any files using Safari ? when I choose to download application file the URL include the file name and stop responding. Any help??

    I can not download any files using Safari ? when I choose to download application file the URL include the file name and stop responding. Any help??

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The Guest login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • What is the name of the folders which are your backup of Itunes library? I am recovering from a virus, have no workable desktop in Win XP, but can search and find files and folders. I would like to move these backup files to a new computer

    what is the name of the folders which are the backup of Itunes library? I am recovering from a virus, have no workable desktop in Win XP, but can search and find files and folders. I would like to move these backup files to a new computer, authorize it and sync with Iphone 3Gs and Ipod 5th gen.
    I

    I second the whole iTunes folder approach.
    If for some reason you have split the media folder from the library files then the media folder needs to restored to the same path it used to have while the library files can be copied into the music folder of your new profile.
    If in dobut, backup up the entire Documents and Settings folder before wiping the infected drive, but be selective about what you restore as many viruses drop active components capable of reinfecting the compuer in the temp folders and internet caches. It is much easier to backup more than you need than to discover after the fact that you no longer have access to some vital project you'd been storing in a folder on the desktop.

  • Crystal Server 2013: How to troubleshoot "Can not create temp file---- Error code:-2147215357"

    We have a Java7 web app, which generate PDF report by calling Crystal Server 2013 SP4.
    The app is being deployed on many different servers. We sometimes got the error below when generating report:
    com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKException: Can not create temp file---- Error code:-2147215357 [CRSDK00000615] Error code name:internal
    at com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.PrintOutputController.controllerExportInternal(PrintOutputController.java:280)
    at com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.PrintOutputController.export(PrintOutputController.java:152)
    at com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.PrintOutputController.export(PrintOutputController.java:130)
    at com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.PrintOutputController.export(PrintOutputController.java:113)
    Problem is, this seems to be  a pretty generic exception. It could be caused by many different reasons.
    e.g. network connection problem, wrong DB login, wrong folder path, lack of folder access right, etc.
    Each time we could only guess what's wrong.
    We are running into it again, and this time everything seems correctly configured so far.
    We wonder if there are more info we can get to troubleshoot? For example, any log file of Crystal Server we should look into? Or does Crystal Server has debug mode which prints more details to tell us what goes wrong?

    Hi Henry,
    I believe you are using RAS SDKs to export the reports to PDF.
    Apply trace on RAS server and check what you find in RAS logs.
    Check whether you can see timeout error is RAS logs. Usually if connection is lost and the RAS server no more have the session to write to the temp directory, we do see these errors.
    Also, does the account that runs RAS have permissions to create a file in RAS's default temp directory? Are you getting any out of memory or out of disk space exceptions on App server or RAS, tracing RAS server is the way to move forward.
    Thanks,

    Yes
    >>Apply trace on RAS server and check what you find in RAS logs.
    >>Check whether you can see timeout error is RAS logs.
    How to configure tracing, and where are RAS logs? Is it configured in CMC --> Servers --> Crystal Report Services?
    >>Also, does the account that runs RAS have permissions to create
    >>a file in RAS's default temp directory?
    Pretty sure yes.
    >> Are you getting any out of memory or out of disk space exceptions

    Not on App server.
    For RAS, that's the problem, I am not sure where to look.......

  • I can not open PDF files in safari

    I can not open PDF files in safari. How can I fix this problem?

    Back up all data.
    Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Can not open JPEG files and can not create JPEG files from other software

    Can not open JPEG files and can not create JPEG files from other software (For example from Solidworks).
    When I try to right click on a JPEG, a notice window appears written: "Windows Explorer has stopped working - Windows is
    checking for a solution to the problem" and then the notice box disapears, the desktop appears and I can continue working.
    From the other side - If I try to save as JPEG a screen of Solidworks (like a view of a part) the Solidworks falls but the JPEG
    is created (I can see its name in the directory I created it).
    I can open the JPEGS with the Paint software if I want but not with the Windows Photo Viewer.
    I have the feeling that the Windows Photo Viewer disapeared from my computer - just a feeling.
    I will appreciate your assistance.

  • I'm recording video on JVC HD camera.Every 13:54 it starts a new file.I have one file that won't play.I get this message:Quick time player can't open (names file) because the movie's file format isn't recognized.  Only happens this one file.Ideas?

    I can't open one Quick Time movie file.  It says: Quick time player can't open (names file) because the movie's file format isn't recognized.  Only happens on this one file.  All the others of a two hour shoot are fine. 
    Any ideas what's happened and is there some way to open that file and retrieve what's on it? 

    Thanks this was useful. I have been ripping my audiobooks and I was finding that they would get uploaded to iCloud in the process, which in itself was fine, but then iTunes would not let me change the media type to Audiobook, which is annoying as it effects how iTunes treats the media. Like showing you the skip back 10 seconds button.
    The general outline here helped me work around the issue and change the media type before the media was re-uploaded to iCloud.

  • I can't import any files or folders into Final Cut Pro 7.0.3 projects

    I can't import any files or folders into Final Cut Pro 7.0.3 projects. When I select import and then either files or folders, I am able to navigate to the drive where the media is being stored, but then when I scroll to locate the files or folders the drive disappears. This problem began as an intermittent problem, but now I cannot import any files or folders. This problem started when I upgraded my operating system to Yosemite version 10.10.2 on my mid-2010 Mac Pro running with 16 GB of memory and an ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB graphics card. Can anyone help me figure out and solve this serious problem? Thanks!

    Then just drag the files/folders from your hard drive into FCP.  Don't use the IMPORT option...just drag and drop.
    The problem started when you installed an OS that doesn't support FCP 7.  So if you want things to work smoothly, it's best to go back to an OS that did support FCP 7. Yosemite was written without taking FCP 7 functionality in mind, so it isn't fully functional. It might not do one thing for someone...but works for you in that respect. But then you can't do something else. The ways it doesn't work is always random.  Or it might work great for some people, because they don't use functions that might no longer work....so they don't notice it.

  • Getting "Can not open the file due to unknown error(FRM:0007)"

    Getting "Can not open the file due to unknown error(FRM:0007)", when refreshing the local copy of Deski report  from user docs.
    Any assistance
    Thanks,
    Sasi.

    Hi Sasi,
    One of the reason for this error is corrupted universe.So you can try following steps and restore copy of universe and then try to import this universe and check whether it works.
    1.While importing a universe, a temp file is created in the users local settings temp directory.
    2. For example C:\Documents and Settings\brijones\Local Settings\Temp\0dd0b0a7 .
    3. File has no extension is relatively the same size as the original universe file.
    4.Rename this file to original universe name.
    I hope it helps.

  • I can not open adobe files. mainly ones that end in doc. I purchased the 19.99 to convert .doc files

    I can not open adobe files that end in .doc. I purchased the 19.99 to convert doc to pdf and I still cant open. I get an error reading.

    Hi,
    Which Adobe Service did you purchased?
    If you have purchased CreatePDF please visit: https://createpdf.acrobat.com/SignIn.html
    Sign in with your Adobe ID and password, and then convert your word doc into PDF.
    Please let me know if that works.
    If you have Adobe Reader, you cannot convert .doc file to .PDF by drag and drop.
