Cannot save to this file name
I am working with CS3. My problem is that everytime I hit save on a document I get the following error message:
Cannot save to this filename. Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder.
This message seems to be coming up everytime I go to rewrite a file. I hit ok and then hit the save button one more time and it saves the message.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
Are you saving to a network? Is a virus scanner/ protection tool running on your system? The issue most likely is caused by some of these processes locking files and only releasing them when you hit the save a second time (as the previous attempt will already cause a system request to update the timestamp)...

Why is Adobe 11.0.10 suddenly saying, "Cannot save to this file name"?
I've had no issues saving fillable PDFs that I've edited up until this week. I don't know what caused the change and I've tried researching the issue. Has anybody else experienced this and found a solution?
Thanks for your quick response! I'm saving to a network drive. I just tried
replicating the issue saving to the local drive and there was no error, but
typically I save on a network drive and it wasn't an issue previously.

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?
ThanksThanks 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?

I am a newer user, to CS4, and recently when I try to save my work (to the same filename) I get this error message: "Cannot save to this filename. Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder". It is very inconvenient to have to constantly be saving my file as a different name. The weird thing is that about 25% of the time it CAN save (to the same file name) but the other 75% of the time I am forced to rename my file. Is there any fix for this?
Are you saving to a server?
You can often get a message that the file is locked or in use, if the server is using the file, and especially when the server admin did not configure the server properly. Try saving to your hard drive, then drag and drop later to the server when you are done, you will be much happier.
Also use alphanumeriocas in your filenames (A-Z, 0-9) Charchters like /\:; are the worst to use as they can often interfere with a unix OS. _ ( ) are safe to use. The Bullet • when mac OSX first came out made your files invisible. -
HT204150 Cannot save contacts with no name in iCloud in Outlook.
I cannot save contacts with no name in iCloud in Outlook. The error messages are generic. This is an issue, since most companies do not have a dedicated name to go to. iCloud was always bad with contacts with no name. The issue has gotten worse. Also, this is a defect, since before you could do this, and now you can do this in iPhone and web iCloud. This is one of many issues introduced by iCloud 3.
I now find these USA type errors are only on the Address Book that comes up on my iMac when I go to iCloud.com possibly because the iMac does not support iCloud
My iPad and iPhone4 seem to be syncing OK re Contacts on iCloud EXCEPT I have Duplicates and on my iPad I can see one Group relates to "iPad" while the second or Duplicates relates to " Unified"
Is there any way via my iPad that I can eliminate all Contacts from this "Unified" Group and thereby eeliminate the Duplicates? -
Just upgraded to Mavericks. Now I cannot access scans from my hp scanner. After it complete the scans and I try to save as tiff, jpeg or pdf I get a either a grey blur or a message that says cannot save because the file cannot be written to. I did not have any problems before the upgrade. I would greatly appreciate any light shed on this.
Go to the HP site and look for drivers for your scanner. It apparently needs an updated driver to work with Mavericks.

Cannot Save To This Filename (with log) (trusted location fail)
Hello,
We are receiving the "document could not be saved. Cannot save to this filename..." error since upgrading to 11.0.10 when digitally signing and replacing file on our network using W7. We have tried adding a folder path into the trusted locations panel per this thread Cannot Save as to network after update to 11.0.10 This did not work for us.
I turned on the protected mode log after adding the folder where attempt is made and shutting down adobe then creating a document there and attempting a digital signature. Below is the log after one attempt if it helps.

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

Getting the error "Adobe Send cannot currently send this file" how can I find out why?
Hey James,
Please let me know what kind of file are you trying to send using 'Adobe Send' online service.
Does this happen with every file you try to send or any specific one?
Have you tried using a different browser? What happens? Check with your internet connection speed as well.
Hope to hear from you.

What does 'ipod cannot be synced. duplicate file name specified' mean?
what does 'ipod cannot be synced. duplicate file name specified' mean?
I'm having the same issue. Old ipod 160 gig worked for years; it crashed. I bought a new "used" ipod. It starts reading all my music and syncs a few songs then crashes. I get the same screen you do about duplicate, etc. Very frustrating. I'm downloaded the new iTunes (not impressed). I've tried unchecking most of my music to see if that would help but it didn't. Any suggestions? Thanks

"Adobe Send cannot currently send this file." Why not?
I would like to send a group of 4 interrelated PDF files to an email address. I subscribed to Adobe Send. When I tried to send my files I got the message, "Adobe Send cannot currently send this file." Will I be able to use this service or should I simply cancel my subscription?
My first attempt had been from the Send box on the Adobe Reader screen. That had failed. Once I got properly registered into Adobe Send I was able to send the same group of files with no problem although I noticed that the embedded hyperlinks used to connect the files didn't work for the Send recipient. Hyperlinks are not a deal breaker as long as I can send the files as a group.

Cannot save the downloaded files
Hello,
I usually downloaded the scientific paper (pdf file) from many sites. After I use the Adobe acrobat 9, I cannot save these pdf files which is on the window.
I usually downloaded from 'ScienceDirect' site. Download process is good. But when I click the save icon on the acrobat, there is no response.
I use Window Vista x64.
What should I do?Save As. The save button should be greyed out since it is already saved to your TEMP folder as you are viewing it.

Cannot save to jpeg - file gets corrupted?
First let me say, I have searched through the forum and can't find the answer to what I am looking for. That is probably because I am not really sure what my problem is.
As of yesterday I cannot save a file to jpeg (using PS7)
I have done a virus scan and all the other regular checks but nothing is showing up.
Basically this is what I am doing.
Opening a new document - adding some designs, flattening document and then saving. I choose to save it as a jpeg and everything seems to go fine until I go to open up the saved document. Then there is nothing there.
Doesn't seem to matter if it is a new file or an old file. Same problem. (Mode is set to RGB-8bit)
Sometimes if I do a save as and give the file a completely new name a pop-up comes up and says the following:
Could not save as "C:\...\test.jpeg" because that document is currently open. Save using a different name, or close the document and try again.
Of course this makes no sense since I am doing a save as and giving the file a new name.
Can anyone help me? Or point me in the right direction? I would really appreciate it!Thanks - 7.0.1 installed and still the same problem.
I have narrowed things down a bit.
It seems if I create a new doc 2400x3000 for example I can convert it to a jpeg no problem.
If I start with 3600x3600 I get the problem. Same steps as the above file with the only difference being the size.
Anyone have a solution for this as it seems like it is size related (note that I have created at this size before and never had this problem).
Thanks. -
Cannot save file. Get error message, "This document could not be saved. There was a problem reading this document (8)". What does this mean and how do I fix it? The file opens normally, so how is there a problem reading this document?
Hi MarkStabler,
It appears that your document gets corrupted, try printing the file through Adobe PDF printer and then check the issue.
