Can't create temporary files to open attachments

"Can't create file RFI Detailed-With Routing Information.pdf. Right-click the folder you want to create the file in, then click Properties on the shortcut menu to check your permissions for the folder."
My co-worker receives this message when she tries to open some PDF files from one sender. The co-worker is able to open PDF attachments from all other senders except this one. Now, I have checked her folder permissions for the temp folder, as well as parent folders and the permissions allow full control everywhere I have checked. This wouldn't be so strange, except she forwards the emails to me and I open them just fine.
We have tried repairing the installation through Adobe. We have even uninstalled and re-installed the application with no change. There are no other adobe versions installed. The only thing I can find that is not typical is that she can't install security update 8.1.2.

How is she trying to open the file? Has she saved it to disk first and then selected it for opening? Can anyone else open the file? I am assuming that she is simply trying to open directly from her mail package and the first step is to save it to disk and try that. If it opens when saved to disk, then it is likely an OS issue, not an Acrobat issue.
For more information it would be helpful to know what OS, what application (assume a mail package) is in use, and how she is trying to open the file. There is just not enough information without making assumptions. However, some simple tests of not opening directly, but saving first are always good ideas to try.

Windows 7 - annoying can't create temporary file popup

Hallo,
sorry for my weird question - but after upgrading to Windows 7 (new computer) I'm still bothered by this error message (see picture) - even though I have (checked several times) the rights on the folder set correctly (ownership by my account, full access). Have anyone some hints? This popup is very annoying. Thank you,
George

Hi,
Unfortunately I have no success with beating this - even when building an application from scratch (also in different location). To be honest, I'm not expert on W7, english is not my mother tongue and the documentation is due the translation of terminology hard to understand. The hint to edit "user rights assignment" does not give me any guidance how to check/edit, because the I don't know what is the root process, which need to write the temporary file (any other files are successfully written).
But I can't agree that this is not a problem CVI, because popup window (having the meaning to inform user of some internal IDE problem) blocks the run of developed application.
Cheers,
George
I forgot to add this: in the referenced directory (see attachement above - "...\cvibuild.Terno") CVI IDE stores other files - like build.ini, dependencies.bri - and also creates additional subdirectories debug, release. I think that the error message displays invalid information ... and I'm digging in the wrong grave ...

Can't create new files nor open existing ones.

It's been a while since I last used photoshop, a similar kind of problem made me move away from the product, but the new features in CS6 are enticing enough for me to be interested in trying it again.
My problem is that, while the interface is completely usable (I can open the color picker, play with tools and preselects) trying to open a file or creating a new one does absolutely nothing.
File->New or CTRL+N will show the busy cursor for but a brief second, and then disappear, dragging a file to the interface shows me the "denied" cursor (black circle with a bar), File->Open lets me browse my disk but then when I select the image, nothing happens.
I've been scouring the forums for a solution to this and tried so many things that it's impossible for me to even try and list them all, so I'll accept any suggestion and try anything, I'll sum up what I did try in the first post (if it stays editable).
Please let me succeed in this, I'd love to go back to photoshop.

How can I test the other display theory? I didn't connect any new monitor (I do use 2) but I occasionally use stuff like remote desktop tools.
I'll try and update the display drivers (even tho I updated them recently).
P.S.: opening it on the other monitor worked. What the heck. Any way I can make it work on both monitors?
I'll be making more tests in the meanwhile.

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.

HT4075 I don't have any problems merging the documents by dragging, but when I try to save and open afterwards, only the last shown doc was saved, not the combined files I wanted to merge. I tried save and export, how can I create the file after merging?

Hi, I'm having trouble saving the documents when merging in Preview. I don't have any problems merging the pdf documents by dragging them in preview, but when I try to save and open afterwards, only the last shown doc was saved, not the combined files I wanted to merge. I've tried save and export, but none merge the documents after saving... how can I create the file (with all the pdf files) after merging?

That's a comment in the file. It has no effect at all.

TS4272 erase free space stuck on creating temporary file

I upgraded to 10.7.4 and followed instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4272
At step 9 Disk Utility is stuck on 'creating temporary file' for the last 24 hours. I have canceled and tried more than once.

This may be a problem with Disk Utility on your boot drive. Try rebooting to the Recovery HD and using Disk Utility on that partition (it should appear in the OS X Tools menu). You might also try running a disk verification and repair to ensure the filesystem and partition structure are intact.
Alternatively you can also bypass the disk utility application by using the Terminal to erase free space, which can be done with the following command:
sudo diskutil secureErase freespace 0 disk0s2
Note that while the device "disk0s2" is commonly the boot drive for systems with a single hard drive, this may be different for you system. Check the device by opening Disk Utility and getting information on your boot volume, and you should see the proper device name listed as "device identifier."

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
This is the image contained in the file causing the problem...
I certain the original is contained in the Combo updates and on the OS disks.
As a temporary fix, click on the image above to open it.
Use Screen capture (Shift+Command+4) and click on the opposite corners of the image.
It will be saved as a Screen shot 2011-mm-dd at hh:mm.png
Right click on the filename in Finder and rename it to mwmac_white.png
I'm not certain, but the file might need to be moved into the Documents directory in the Subdirectory named for the website name you are editing. That's where it is on my system, but I moved a bunch of files when I restored from Time Machine about 18 months ago.
I also have many copies of mwmac.png, a separate copy one for each web page where the image appears in my website.

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.

Can't create a file, Can't Publish to iWeb

When I try to publish some changes to my site, I get a Publish Error that says: Can’t create the file “droppedImage.png.” The disk may be damaged or full, or you may not have sufficient access privileges.
My iDisk doesn't seem otherwise to be damaged and it is less than half full.
Has anyone seen this and can help me with it?
Thanks

Copy your domain.sites2 file to the desktop from the User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. Control-click on it and select Show Package contents from the contextual menu. Search that package for the droppedImage.png file and copy it to the desktop. Open it with Preview. Do a Save as, select PNG and save as a new file - droppedImage2.png.
Rename that file back to droppedImage.png and move it back into the domain.sites2 package replacing the original png file.
Rename the original domain.sites2 file to domain-original.sites2 and move the edited package from the desktop into the User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. Open iWeb and publish to a folder to test. If it publishes OK to a folder publish to your .Mac account. If it doesn't go as hoped you still have the original domain file to fall back on.

Can not create PDF files 8

Removed PhotoShop 5 and a few other programs the other day to create more room. Now I can't create PDF files anymore in Excel and AutoCad. When I try, it outputs to my note pad with the following:
%%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: setdistillerparams; ErrorInfo: CalCMYKProfile U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2 ]%%
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
Error accessing color profile: U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
Any sugestions.
I'm useing Acrobat 8 Standard with Windows XP
Thanks
Steve

If the repair does not do the job, then try a different job settings in the printing process. The error you are getting comes from the Distiller step of the PDF creation. You can go in steps if you wish by trying to print to file. Then opening that file in Distiller to see that happens.

Why do I get error 'Could not create temporary file. No space left on device" when I use the Engine Installation Wizard in TestStand?

The process gets to the NIVISA\SETUP.INI step, then I get this error.
I've tried with installing the MDAC and not, and it happens both times.
The drive I'm trying to create the file to has 7.4GB open on it, so I'm not sure why this is happening.
Thank you,
Dave Neumann

Dave,
This is documented in the KnowledBase 2D6A63VW titled: "Error: Could Not Create Temporary File, No Space Left on Device".
As RByrd suggested, you might need to free up some memory space in your System Temp directory, OR you may change the location of your System Temp directory to one with more space (such as the directory where you want the TestStand Engine files to be saved). The Knowledbase shows how to do this step by step. This is its URL:

Couldn't create temporary file.

I have a 1TB drive in my Mac Pro running Mavericks 10.9.4 and I went to disk utility to erase some free space on the drive. However I keep getting the error message:
Secure Erase Free Space failed
Secure erase Free Space failed with the error:
Couldn't create temporary file.
I Googled the error message and couldn't find anything. The error message is heaps unhelpful, it doesn't tell me why it couldn't create a temporary file or what I can do to fix it. Please help, it would be much much appreciated!

I have a time machine backup that is up to date, with tons of extra space. Could I copy over the files I have on my macbook pro hard drive and recopy back once I have wiped out the hard drive, thinking maybe there is a problem copied onto the ™ backup?
