Cancel cannot save to the file because it is in use

Hi guys,
From a couple of days ago i cannot export ANY pdf file in InDesign withouth the "cannot save to the file because it is in use by one or more background tasks". It seems there is a "temporary files" are saving. So the trick is to delete the file from the Finder and save the PDF again. It is annoying that i cannot replace the pdf directly with the same name.
Can i override this situation?
Any help or ideas?
Thanks

Thanks for the fast reply
Actually i learn before from a forum that could be an issue so i take care so the file is not marked. Nevertheless it keeps telling me the file is in use. What could it be?
Cheers

I cant figure out what is wrong i keep getting this an OIEception that says "{"The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."}

I am trying to move a file from a folder to another folder.
here is my code:
//storage of the all files
string[] folderContentNames = Directory.GetFiles(@"C:\Users\Jonah\Desktop\Test Pictures");
private void historyPictureBox_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
destinationFile = @"C:\Users\Jonah\Desktop\Test Test";
File.Move(folderContentNames[1], destinationFile);
updateListBoxFileName();
updateImageBox();
each time I hit the bolded underlined part I get that error message.
if you need anything else just ask.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Thor,
If you want to move a file from a folder to another folder, I think you could get the sourcePath and TargetPath. The code below shows a simple demo:
string[] folders = Directory.GetFiles(@"D:\Test\VSC#\01\WindowsFormsApp\WindowsFormsApp\Test");
string desFile =Path.Combine( @"D:\Test\VSC#\01\WindowsFormsApp\WindowsFormsApp\Test - Copy\"+Path.GetFileName(folders[1]));
File.Move(folders[1], desFile);
In addition, the link below might be useful to you:
# How to: Copy, Delete, and Move Files and Folders (C# Programming Guide)
>> The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process
The message seemed that the file was opened in other process. Did you operate the file with other code?
I think you could check if the files and the folders were opened, and review your codes if they were used in other places.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to post in this forum.
Best Regards,
Edward

Ya, Thanks I figured about the path and destation. yes I am using the file in another area, the file is an image jpg and I am displaying it in a picture box. Now I have been doing a little research I see a command called Dispose() and this is suppose to
release the handle on the image, but I can seem to figure out have to use it correctly.

when I first start the program the first picture displays, but when I trigger historyPictureBox_Click(), it does that error again. Another things is that I already looked at that link and it didn't help.
I just super confused, I would like your help on this.

Backup stopped before completing. The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process

I am working with a client who is attempting to backup to a NAS device
The device is a linksys NSS6000 (Cisco device).
It’s a dual 1Gbit LAN device that supports CIFS / FTP and NFS transfers. It has only 1Gbit lan connected.
The device has 4 * 500 gb sata drives in raid 1 attached.
Cables go from cat 5 to fiber back to cat5. (The NAS is located at a neighboring office) The switches are 1gbit.
Server is a win2k8r1 fully up to date.
When backing up to the NAS device, the following error occurs:
Running backup of volume Local Disk(D:), copied (86%).
Running backup of volume Local Disk(D:), copied (90%).
Running backup of volume Local Disk(D:), copied (94%).
Running backup of volume Local Disk(D:), copied (98%).
Backup of volume Local Disk(D:) completed successfully.
Backup stopped before completing.
Summary of backup:
Backup stopped before completing.
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
If we redirect the backup to a folder on a 2008 share, the backup completes successfully.
Only when backing up to the linksys NSS6000 does the error occur.
No other backup processes are writing to the NAS device so I can't understand why the process thinks the file is
being used by another process.
One thing we did notice that when the backup to the NAS device occurs, throughput is about 150 mbit average
On the 2008 server shares we successfully backup to, the through put is 500 mbit. Not sure if that is important, but
might be worth mentioning.
The following event log entry was noted at the end of the backup.
The description for Event ID '519' in Source 'Microsoft-Windows-Backup' cannot be found.
The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display the message,
or you may not have permission to access them. The following information is part of the
event:'2009-05-12T10:13:31.617Z', '', '2147942432', '%%2147942432'
Any ideas?
Thanks..Michael

I am also seeing the same problem backing up nightly to a brand new NAS device (WD My Book Live)
All the error codes are the same as those in this thread.
From Windows Event Viewer:
The backup operation that started at '‎2011‎-‎03‎-‎25T06:00:19.811302700Z' has failed with following error code '2147942432' (The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.). Please review the event details
for a solution, and then rerun the backup operation once the issue is resolved.

Move-item: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

Hey,
I have a powershell script where I first use Get-childitem to receive a number of files.
Then I do some stuff with it and try to move the file afterwards.
Unfortunately if I am using a lot of files I receive very often the error:
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
Even -Force parameter does not help further.
Based on my look around it is not used by another process.
I think it is still 'in use' by powershell from script commands previously.
Is there any way to 'see' if the file is still in use currently and wait for this to end?
Or can I 'close' the current usage of the file?
Thank you :)

Hey,
Thank you.
I build the following function.
But either the $return = $true I receive "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process." when I try to move-item... :(
Function Wait-FileUnlock($FilePath){
Write-Host " "
$FileInfo = New-Object System.IO.FileInfo $($FilePath)
DO{
try{
$fileStream = $fileInfo.Open([System.IO.FileMode]::Open, [System.IO.FileAccess]::Read, [System.IO.FileShare]::Read)
$return = $true
catch{
Start-Sleep -Milliseconds 5
Write-Host "." -NoNewline
$return = $false
While($return -ne $true)
$Error
return $return
Another functions is:
Function Wait-FileUnlock($FilePath){
Write-Host " "
DO{
$Error.Clear()
Rename-Item $FilePath $FilePath -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Out-Null
Start-Sleep -Milliseconds 5
Write-Host "." -NoNewline
While($Error.Count -ne 0)
This one waits .. but it seems not to end waiting at any time :(

How do I fix this error: DF024: Unable to preserve original file at ... Error 32 The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.(Seq 1352). ?

I am installing creative the cloud Illustrator desktop app on a machine with windows 7 64 bit running in a domain environment. The download starts and takes about runs for a bout 10 minutes and then stops with the error: DF024: Unable to preserve original file at "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CC 2014\Support Files\Contents\Windows\AdobeLinguistic.dll" Error 32 The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.(Seq 1352)
I am logged in as a network administrator and there are no other apps except a web browser (Chrome) running. There are no other users logged into the machine.
How can I see what other process is using the needed file so that I can fix it?
Thanks

MelissaB34 it looks like you already are reviewing your installation log files but you can find more information at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html. From the error you have posted it appears that your current User account is either unable to update C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CC 2014\Support Files\Contents\Windows\AdobeLinguistic.dll or does not have sufficient file permissions to do so. Since you mentioned you are on a domain please ensure that you are working with your I.T. department and have correct access to this directory.
You may want to also consider logging in under a local administrator account to see if you face the same difficulties. This would help you determine if you are facing a file corruption issue or file permission issue.

The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process with Execute package task

Hi,
I've a master package that calls other packages with an Execute Package Task. Sometimes we have an error: "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process" and sometimes not. It seems random.
We are working on a Terminal Server and the SQL Server database engine and the files are placed on another server. It seems that the errors doesn't occu when we run the packages on the server with a job. We can't log onto the windows server on this machine..
Hennie

I've seen this myself. On most occasions an immediate rerun would fix the issue. As stated this happens only when we try to run this from BIDs. From SQL agent job it always runs fine.

The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another proc

We are exporting crystal reports into PDF using ExportToHttpResponse (code snippet below)
      // Getting the type of the report file which has been selected by the user. (which will be REPORT CLASS type)
Type objType = Type.GetType("WebApplication1.Reports." + ReportName);
ReportClass SEPREport = (ReportClass)Activator.CreateInstance(objType);
// GetTypedDataSet()returns an instance of typed data set.
SEPREport.SetDataSource(GetTypedDataSet());
SEPREport.ExportToHttpResponse(ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat, Response, true, ReportName );
Now we have created these REPORTS using Basic Crystal Report 10.5, which comes bundled with Visual Studio 2008 and .Net Framework 3.0.
Now on our machines, we have never experienced any issues.
BUT on the DEV server (web server) which has .net Framework 3.0 and in its GAC its has CRYSTAL DLLs version 11.5 (required to create an Object of ReportClass and its related functions) ; sometimes we get the following error while exporting crystal report to pdf:

A bit of a confusion on my part;
Now we have created these REPORTS using Basic Crystal Report 10.5, which comes bundled with Visual Studio 2008 and .Net Framework 3.0. Now on our machines, we have never experienced any issues.
Going by the above, you should have references to CR assemblies of version 10.5.3700 only. No other references.

My biggest 'pain' at the moment is that every time I go to change then save a Photoshop CS3 file it says 'cannot save as the file as it has been left open or is in use by another application'

My biggest 'pain' at the moment is that every time I go to change then save a Photoshop CS3 file it says 'cannot save as the file as it has been left open or is in use by another application'

Rule Number One - NEVER go directly uinto the iPhoto library - there are no user servicable parts in it and making any change no matter how small can corrupt your library and cause data or photo loss
Exactly how were you trying to save a copy of your iPhoto library?
Albumdata.xml does not contain your photos - and again NEVER make any changes to the content of the iPhoto library - no dragging - no changes - never go into the library
We need to know exactly what you did
And probalby the easiest solution is to load your backup from before you messed things up
For reference after you get things working
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

OneNote recordings "We're sorry, we can't open the file because it is in use by another program."

Constantly, OneNote breaks and screws up my recordings that are synced with my lectures. It is such a fragile process and very frustrating. As soon as I'm done recording, I press stop. When I test the recording, it says, "We're sorry, we can't open
the file because it is in use by another program." I just recorded and then stopped it. If i close and reopen OneNote, it says, "oneNote is cleaning up from the last time it was open." And the recording still says it's in use by another program.
I've even restarted the laptop and it still won't open. The only way i could salvage the file is if I copy and paste it into another folder, and then it will open through windows media player, but all the live syncing with my notes are gone. Where are these
files stored? If I could save the sound and find the file/format that holds the syncing data again, I could work around this. They are no where to be found on my computer. Other forums give locations, but my folders are empty. Some other recordings work and
sync nicely, but I have still lost many recordings to this error. However, if I play a file and then close it without stopping playback, that file, too, will now be unusable. It will be stuck as "We're sorry, we can't open..." no matter what i do
and again i have to copy/paste it into a new folder and then move it back. I had the same problem on my last laptop. I record in Windows Media Audio 10 Professional at 192 kbs, 48 kHz, and stereo CBR. I need the high quality because the lecturer is too quiet.
It seems to happen when I record long lectures, 45 min+. Shorter recordings tend to work fine.
Please help, this would make note taking so much easier.

Action to Convert Word doc to pdf, error: the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process

I am simply running an action that converts all Word 2010 docs within a directory into pdfs in another directory. The Word doc is closed.
This is performed within Adobe Pro X. The directory to look in has been set. The directory to save in has been set, and is different.
The error message pops up after I run the action. If I click the OK button, the 'save pdf file as' box pops up, with Adobe printer's default save directory
(not the same as the above two) selected.
If I click Save, accepting the meaningless file name (ADPD5A5.pdf in this case) the problem goes away. If I chose cancel, the problem also goes away.
I don't want to save this pdf as anything other than what is set up in the action. How do I stop this from happening?
I've unchecked 'prompt for Adobe pdf file name' within the Word Adobe preferences, but to no success.
I will ultimately be converting scores of docs into pdfs, and cannot have to interfere with each one.
This worked fine on my XP machine, but now in Windows 7 64 bit (new machine, new Adobe install) it is causing this problem.

Cannot save webpage (.html file) because get error sayting that a " .js" file could not be saved, because the source file could not be read. Any ideas where my problem is? Thx.

Every time I attempt to save a webpage (.html format) I get a message indicating that some .js-type file was not saved because the source file could not be read.
I did some "cleanup" of add-ons because there were so many. Is it possible I deactivated one that I need to read .js files, or could/would it be something else?
Thanks.

Please help.
It is getting worse
Adobe flash player is crashing. I already uninstalled and re installed the latest ver. Also it is hanging randomly.
Please help.

Also, if your VM has snapshots and you delete it, you must wait for the snapshots to finish merging - the VHD files will be locked until then.

Illustrator files cannot be opened: Could not read the file because an error has occurred.

I cannot open some files from Illustrator which contain PNG files placed. When I try to open the file, I get a message saying: "this png contains addtional data for Adobe fireworks, which will be discarded upon save." When I press "ok" I get the same screen again. When I press "cancel" I get: "coulld not read the file because an error has occured". I am currently working on a Mac Mavericks. Using Illustrator cc and Fireworks CS6.

Eliana,
If you have some file corruption, one thing often tried first is to create a new document and File>Place the (PDF contents, if any of the) corrupted one to see how much may be rescued that way.
Here are some websites where you can see whether it can rescue the actual file, and if it can, you may pay for a subscription to have it done,

As far as I remember, the first one is for Win and the second one is for Mac, while the third one should be for both.
Here are a few pages about struggling with it yourself:

XML Report output giving error "word cannot open the file because....

Hi All,
Greetings!
I have a standard report, 'Payables Posted Invoice Register".
The report was going in to warning beacuse of some Invalid characters in the Data.
I corrected the invalid characters and then ran the report ; it completed fine.
But now when I try to open the report output, the output is not getting open but its allowing me to save the file.
When I save it on my local machine and try to open it, I am getting an error as "word cannot open the file because it is larger than 512 megabytes".
The document size showing is 664MB when I saved it on my machine. And the output type of the report is RTF and not PDF.
Can anybody please help?
Thanks,
Sachin

not sure, if the Microsoft word has limitation of file size.

Cancel cannot save to the file because it is in use
