Cannot move items. Cannot move or copy folders...

I have the most baffling problem. This is with any version of Outlook. I'm logged into a terminal server as the user of this mailbox. Its inbox has many subfolders. One is a folder called "2014". At the same level
is a folder we'll call "Test". When I drag "Test" onto "2014" I get this entire message:
"Cannot move items. Cannot move or copy folders. Cannot move folder. A top-level folder cannot be moved to one of its sub-folders. Or, you may not have permissions for the folder."
Here's the thing... I've given ownership permission to the inbox folder and both subfolders in question. I still get this error. There are other people that share this mailbox and I've done the same thing with one of them; owner permission
to all subfolders and full access to the mailbox via exchange. No matter what permission I give to anyone, including the mailbox owner I'm logged in as, outlook refuses to move the folder. It's not a case of a top level folder being moved into
one of its subfolders. The actual owner of the mailbox has ownership permissions to everything yet I still get this error.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Edit: I can't even create a folder in the inbox. It just says "Cannot create the folder". I own everything to do with the folders.

Hi,
Please first check if you can reproduce this issue from OWA. If it works correctly in OWA, it means the issue is with Outlook side. We can try to create a new mail profile in Control Panel and then reconfigure the account in the new mail profile to see the
result.
If this issue continues in OWA, it could be caused by a permission synchronization problem. I'd recommend you post a new question in the Exchange forum to get further assistance:

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 :(

You might want to try it again. It started working for me about 10 minutes ago (~8pm CST).
This was happening for rentals and purchases.

I cannot move items in my playlist.

I cannot move items in my playlist. It's not a smartlist, and I can see the arrow at the top of the column. Still, nothing. This isn't the first time I've had this problem. Every single time I update to the new version of iTunes, something in my library f-s up, and I spend 2 or 3 hours trying to correct. I cannot, for the life of me, understand why iPod is the top MP3 player and music library in the industry. I've always bought iPods, and always had problems with iTunes. Always. Urgh! Why does it have to be so finicky??

Reboot and try again.

I am having the same problem I think. With mobileme you simply copy documents to the idisk folder and then synch. I cannot seem to sink that folder anymore. Any idea as to how I can simply copy folders to icloud and then access the MS Word and PDF file

Apple never bopthered to explain that this would happen
Your iDisk is still accessible after moving to iCloud in exactly the same way as before. Nothing is deleted until June 30th 2012.
, so I could easily have lost ALL of the files I kept on iDisk.
No, you couldn't. Firstly, nothing was deleted from your iDisk. Secondly, any files stored on your iDisk should never be your only copy. Even if your iDisk spontaneously combusted, you should keep local backups elsewhere.
Does Apple WANT people to move their storage elsewhere and stop paying Apple for it?
Yes. Apple doesn't provide such a service anymore, nor are you paying them for it.
Apple has made no effort to suggest remedies for the problem it has given iDisk users
They've provided instructions on how to download your files from your iDisk. What you do with them after that is your choice.

Cannot open any photos/movies in Entourage, message comes up saying 'folder cannot be found'. Last week I deleted lots of old documents/downlods and fear that I have accidentally deleted file that opens photos/movies.....any suggestions???

I cannot open any photos/movies in Entourage, message comes up saying 'folder cannot be found'. Last week I deleted lots of old documents/downloads and fear that I have accidentally deleted what is needed to open photos/movies. Any suggestions please? Should re-install the whole Office:mac program, and is it easy to do this without disturbing what I have on my computer?

When you password-protected these folders then you did so to prevent anyone from accessing the pictures unless he had the correct password, even if he deleted the password application itself. Are you now asking how to get around this protection? If you
selected a robust protection scheme then you probably got what you wanted: uncrackable encryption. You need to check the FAQs of this application and/or google for clues. Alternatively you could restore your files from your external backup medium (if you have
one . . .).

Syncing from iPhotos with .mov that cannot be played?

I get a message when syncing from iPhoto because a .mov file cannot be played on my iPad. What options do I have besides checking [] Do not warn me again?

That will be a way to get it to my iPad. I expect it will still fail to synchronize with my iPhoto.
When I check of to not tell me that the synchronization failed, will it only do so for that particular item? Is there a way to select an album with my iPhoto sync, but exclude that particular video?

I cannot find videos (not movies) that i have transferred to my macbook pro from an external hard drive, these files used to be on my windows PC!

I cannot find videos (not movies) that i have transferred to my macbook pro from an external hard drive, these files used to be on my windows PC. Photos and a few of the videos came over but i am missing the majority of the videos. Help please!!! I have tried omnidisksweeper with no success in finding them.
in my Usage it says i have over 40 gb of movies when i only have about 9gb which i can see using spotlight search. i really hope the other amount is my missing videos! these are videos of my kids as babies.

Read this post and do the migration again, putting the library in a portable shape first if necessary.

There is nothing wrong with my internet connection.
Is that a -50 error message, jolyn?
If so, perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

Hi whatisitagain,
Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
If the movie you downloaded from the iTunes Store is not playing in iTunes for Windows, start with the troubleshooting tips in this article:
