Cannot open a a file with a specific file name

I have 1 person who cannot open or save a file with a specific file name on his computer. If he does it at another computer he is fine, no one else has this issue. The error he gets when trying to open the file is { Cannot create file:missingperson.pdf. Right-click the folder you want to create the file in, and then click Properties on the shortcut menu to check your permissions for the folder}
Any ideas on how to resove this. He gets this file sent to him on a regular basis, and cannot have the file name changed.
Thank you

I have run across something similar. Assuming that this PDF they are getting through email is the same name, then this is how I fixed my problem.
When you get a file in an email and open it, it writes that file to the Temporary Internet Files folder. Lets assume the file name is filename.pdf If you open a file from email with the same name at a later time, it creates a file called filename(1).pdf. Open a file with the same name again, it creates filename(2).pdf, and so on. Once you get to filename(99).pdf, it will start giving you a lot of trouble. When I cleared out those filename.pdf's, everything went back to normal.
Hope this helps.

How can I list all folders that contain files with a specific file extension? I want a list that shows the parent folders of all files with a .nef extension.

not the total path to the folder containing the files but rather just a parent folder one level up of the files.
So file.nef that's in folder 1 that's in folder 2 that's in folder 3... I just want to list folder 1, not 2 or 3 (unless they contain files themselves in their level)

find $HOME -iname '*.nef' 2>/dev/null | awk -F '/' 'seen[$(NF-1)]++ == 0 { print $(NF-1) }'
This will print just one occurrence of directory
The 'find' command files ALL *.nef files under your home directory (aka Folder)
The 2>/dev/null throws away any error messages from things like "permissions denied" on a protected file or directory
The 'awk' command extracts the parent directory and keeps track of whether it has displayed that directory before
-F '/' tells awk to split fields using the / character
NF is an awk variable that contains the number of fields in the current record
NF-1 specifies the parent directory field, as in the last field is the file name and minus one if the parent directory
$(NF-1) extracts the parent directory
seen[] is a context addressable array variable (I choose the name 'seen'). That means I can use text strings as lookup keys. The array is dynamic, so the first time I reference an element, if it doesn't exist, it is created with a nul value.
seen[$(NF-1)] accesses the array element associated with the parent directory.
seen[$(NF-1)]++ The ++ increments the element stored in the array associated with the parent directory key AFTER the value has been fetched for processing. That is to say the original value is preserved (short term) and the value in the array is incremented by 1 for the next time it is accessed.
the == 0 compares the fetched value (which occurred before it was incremented) against 0. The first time a unique parent directory is used to access the array, a new element will be created and its value will be returned as 0 for the seen[$(NF-1)] == 0 comparison.
On the first usage of a unique parent directory the comparison will be TRUE, so the { print $(NF-1) } action will be performed.
After the first use of a unique parent directory name, the seen[$(NF-1)] access will return a value greater than 0, so the comparison will be FALSE and thus the { print $(NF-1)] } action will NOT be performed.
Thus we get just one unique parent directory name no matter how many *.nef files are found. Of course you get only one unique name, even if there are several same named sub-directories but in different paths
You could put this into an Automator workflow using the "Run Shell Script" actions.

For the first time, I'm trying to use adobe premiere elements 10 that came with my pc Windows 8. I created a single project, saved it but cannot open it. My pc shows the file I created but I get an error message that says this type file is not supported or the codex is not installed. As a test, I created another very small project and get the same error message, when I try to open it. Pls give me a simple answer, a refund or a phone

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 10 running on? And, what video card/graphics card does that computer use?
Is this the first time you are using Premiere Elements 10 or have you worked with it before successfully? There is no easy solution until we
know the details and troubleshoot to determined what caused the problem.
1. Can you open a new project?
2. After you saved/closed the problem project, did you move, delete, or rename any of the files/folder that were related to the source media
for that project?
3. Please review the Adobe document on troubleshooting damaged projects.
Troubleshoot damaged projects | Adobe Premiere Elements
4. What are the steps that you are using to reopen this saved closed project.
a. File Menu/Open Project/Name of Project
b. Other
Please review and consider and then we can decide what next based on your further details and results..
Thank you.

PSE 11 Orgaziner to open with a specific file.

Like that PSE 11 Orgaziner opens with a specific file, like it did with PSE 9, 6 etc.
Anybody knows how to do this??

Are these jpegs? If so make Organizer the default program by right clicking on any jpeg file in one of your folders and choosing.
Open With >> Choose Default Program >> Browse
Navigate to:

Cannot open the Microsoft Jet engine workgroup information file

Hi,
I have 4 linked servers in a SQL Server database. One of them is another sql server database. This one works fine. I have 3 that are Access databases. Last week I could run a query against these linked servers, but now when I open SQL Server Management Studio I get something like the following:
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "HRDB" returned message "Cannot open the Microsoft Jet engine workgroup information file.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "HRDB".
What does this error mean? I've looked at several posts, but none apply to my problem. I've looked to make sure there wasn't a .ldb open. Anything else I've missed?
Many thanks,
Mark

The key error is "Cannot open the Microsoft Jet engine workgroup information file". Here is a suggestion from a AccessMVP.
Are you using ULS (User Level Security) in Access, with a custom workgroup
information file (*.mdw)? If so, you may need to replace this file using a
copy that you should have backed up.
If you have not specifically implemented ULS, then you're still using it,
but you are joined to the file named System.mdw, with username Admin and a
blank password. In this case, which is more likely than the above case I
guessing, your copy of System.mdw may have somehow gotten corrupted. Try
searching your hard drive for this file. For example, my copy is in this
folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Microsoft\Access
(Yes, I log on as Administrator on my PC routinely. Bad Tom).
Rename your copy of System.mdw to something else. Then try restarting
Access. Access 2003 will automatically create this file, if you are
permanently joined to System.mdw, and it does not find it during startup.
That should get you a fresh copy.
Good Luck,

How come when i open my itunes it says "itunes cannot open because some of it's required files are missing. Please reinstall itunes." What do i do?

last night i wanted to update my ipad to 4.3 and when i tried to; it told me i had to download the new itunes too. so i tried downloading the new updated version on itunes, and this morning when i tried to open my itunes it said "itumes cannot open because some of it's required files are missing. Please reinstall itunes." what do i do?

With that one, I think we should try getting the malware possibilities off the table first.
Try downloading and installing the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware. Update your MBAM definitions and then run a full scan of the PC. (Takes about 2 hour on my Lenovo.)
http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
Does the scan find any infections? If so, please paste the contents of the log file for the scan in a reply here so we can have a look.

Zip.ZipInputStream cannot extract files with Chinese chars in name

Dear friends,
Peace b upon u!
I am trying to read a zip file (~3000 files)containing one
or more files with Chinese, Japanese or Korean names, the
getNextEntry method throws an IllegalArgumentException as below after extracting just ~300 files as below:-
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
        at java.util.zip.ZipInputStream.getUTF8String(Unknown Source)
        at java.util.zip.ZipInputStream.readLOC(Unknown Source)
        at java.util.zip.ZipInputStream.getNextEntry(Unknown Source)
        at testZipFiles.getZipFiles(testZipFiles.java:65)
        at testZipFiles.main(testZipFiles.java:18) issue:java.util.zip.ZipInputStream cannot extract files with Chinese chars in name
Category java:classes_util_jarzip
Plz let me know 1 of the ways which I can solve this issue.
1)if someone has JAVA DCOMPILER plz send the SOURCE Code
for the ZipInputStream.class to me..I need to edit it using 1 of the solutions as provided below which I googled.
2)If there is an alternate or upgraded java.util.zip.ZipInputStream or any org.apache.tools.zip.* package which can read such files..If yes where I can download the same on net.
3)Any other easier solution, which can let me extract all files (by excluding Chinese files thru CATCH) without the extractor process to fail altogether.
On net I found that the only solution with this is:-
- edit the new ZipEntry, remove the static initializer that calls
the native methods initIDs().
this step seems a bit scary, but it's according to the
workaround
to bug #4244499 (the workaround of Olive64, THU JUN 05
01:55 P.M. 2003),
that handles a similar bug at the ZipOutputStream.
Now you have a ZipInputStream that supports multi-bytes
entry names.
to extract the zip file, using the fixed code that is offered
above,
create a function that gets an "encoding" string, a "destPath"
string
and a "sourceFile" (zipped) and does :
ZipInputStream zipinputstream = null;
ZipEntry zipentry;
zipinputstream = new ZipInputStream(new FileInputStream
(sourceFile),encoding);
zipentry = zipinputstream.getNextEntry();
while (zipentry != null) { //for each entry to be extracted
    String entryName = zipentry.getName();
    int n;
    FileOutputStream fileoutputstream = new FileOutputStream
( destPath + entryName );
    while ((n = zipinputstream.read(buf, 0, 1024)) > -1)
        fileoutputstream.write(buf, 0, n);
    fileoutputstream.close();
    zipinputstream.closeEntry();
    zipentry = zipinputstream.getNextEntry();
}//while
zipinputstream.close();

Hi friend,
We'd better to ask one question in each thread. If you have another issue, you can consider to open up a new thread in this forum.
Now for the first question, do you mean this picture? It throws access exception in archive2.
If so , because your extractPath is a path, not a directory.You should add +"xxx.zip". For more information, please refer to
ZipFile.Open
Method (String, ZipArchiveMode).
For the second question, you can use the following code to skip the error message.
while (true)
try
//do something;
catch (Exception ex)
{ continue; }
Good day!

Error You cannot open window [951] Authorisations with your current licence

Dear experts,
I am getting following error msg while clicking on any documet in sap b1 Menu..
You cannot open window [951] Authorisations with your current licence
Thank you
Santosh Dhere

Hi Santosh..
You can check by clicking each user on the License administrator to find which user has assigned the License.
To reset the licence please follow SAP note 951816:
Symptom
When trying to allocate licenses to users, the number of licenses available is less than the (number of total - number of licenses already assigned).
(Menu Path: Administration -> License -> License Administration)
Solution
A user with a license allocated to her/him has been deleted from the system without deallocating the license first, or a company with users assigned has been deleted without deallocating the licenses first.
Each time a license is allocated/deallocated an entry is generated in an xml file "B1Upf.xml"
(Path: C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One ServerTools\License\ B1Upf.xml).
If a user/database is deleted without previous deallocation of a license that entry is not removed from the file thus taking up a license space.
To resolve the issue follow these steps:
1. Close all SAP Business One clients.
2. Make a copy of the file (C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One ServerTools\License\B1Upf.xml) and save it with a different name or in a different folder.
3. Delete the original file.
4. Stop/Start the license server.
5. Connect to SAP Business One and assign the licenses (Administration -> License -> License Administration). You will need to reassign licenses for all your users.

Kennedy

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path using any of these perfectly normal methods:
1. double-click file in the Finder (e.g in a Folder on your Mac or on your Mac desktop etc.)
2. select file and choose "File... Open" command-o in the Finder
3. drag file to the application icon in the Finder.
4. Select file in Bridge and double-click, choose File.. Open.. or Drag icon to InDesign icon in dock.
If you try to open an ID file named with a "#", you will get an error message "Missing required parameter 'from' for event 'open.'"
This happens to any InDesign file that has a "#" (pound sign, number sign, or hash) in the filename or in the file path (any parent folder).
To reproduce
Name an InDesign file Test#.idd Try to open it in the Finder or Bridge (as opposed to the "Open" dilaog of InDeisng itself).
"Solution"
The file WILL open using File... Open... command-o while in InDesign application.
Rename the file or folders that have a "#" (shift-3) in the filename.
Report to Adobe if it bugs you.
This does not occur in "plain" Leopard 10.5 nor Tiger 10.4
Untested in Panther or before and
Untested with CS3 and earlier in Snow Leaopard.
Anyone have those and want to try this... ?

In case this really bothers you: we've added a workaround for this into Soxy. If you enable the option, these documents will open fine on double-click.
You need Soxy 1.0.7 from:
http://www.rorohiko.com/soxy
Go to the 'Soxy' - 'Preferences' - 'Other' dialog window, and enable 'Open InDesign via Script'
(Irrelevant background info (it's all invisible to the user): the workaround works by special-casing how Soxy opens documents in InDesign: instead of using AppleScript, Soxy will use ExtendScript to instruct InDesign to open the document - which works fine).

I have written a binary file with a specific header format in LABVIEW 8.6 and tried to Read the same Data File, Using LABVIEW 7.1.Here i Found some difficulty.Is there any way to Read the Data File(of LABVIEW 8.6), Using LABVIEW 7.1?

I can think of two possible stumbling blocks:
What are your 8.6 options for "byte order" and "prepend array or string size"?
Overall, many file IO functions have changed with LabVIEW 8.0, so there might not be an exact 1:1 code conversion. You might need to make some modifications. For example, in 7.1, you should use "write file", the "binary file VIs" are special purpose (I16 or SGL). What is your data type?

Computers with a specific file

Does anyone know how I can scan for computers that have PST files on them?? I tried using "Home >ConfigMgr_ATT >Software
- Files > Computers with a specific file" but I can't get it to reply with any files.

Hi,
to manage computers with a specific file you need to enable software inventory and file detail collection inside the client settings.
Once the rules have been established and deployed to your client computers then they should report their file version and you'll be able to run reports against that data.

Cannot open iphoto library 5 with iphoto 8

My old mac (ibook G4) still has iphoto 5 and this new one has iphoto 8. I cannot open my old library with this new version, and I have most of my photos in the old library!
How do I open my copy of iphoto 5 with iphoto 8?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Remember, once you open the Library with iPhoto 08 you will no longer be able to open it with the earlier version.
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and point it at the v5 library. If iPhoto sees a valid library there it will open it.
Regards
TD
