Crashing on save "pointer being freed was not allocated"
Since installing Snow Leopard, I have been having problems with all applications when saving, opening or browsing for files. Photoshop crashes 90% of the time when I save for web, Firefox crashes when I browse for a file to upload via a dialog box, etc.
When I open Photoshop, I get a bunch of these messages in console:
28/08/09 3:17:10 PM [0x0-0x24024].com.adobe.Photoshop[210] Adobe Photoshop CS4(210,0xa0aad500) malloc: * error for object 0x4b109e0: Non-aligned pointer being freed (2)
28/08/09 3:17:10 PM [0x0-0x24024].com.adobe.Photoshop[210] * set a breakpoint in mallocerrorbreak to debug
Then, when I try to save a file, I get these errors & then it crashes:
28/08/09 3:27:55 PM [0x0-0x24024].com.adobe.Photoshop[210] Adobe Photoshop CS4(210,0xa0aad500) malloc: * error for object 0x29d0a310: pointer being freed was not allocated

I've tried reinstalling Snow Leopard twice, including a completely fresh install, and still get the same issue.
i have the same problems, not only with Phohotshop:
26.07.09 00:18:11 0x0–0x49049.com.adobe.Photoshop568 Adobe Photoshop CS4(568,0xa0b63500) malloc: * error for object 0x4b094e0: Non–aligned pointer being freed (2)

Often it happens when I try to open or save file, i.e. after pressing the button in some File Dialog.
PRAM/SMC reset, repair disk permissions and repair disk don't help.
Hardware test said that all is well.
now i rolled back to Leopard 10.5.8 - there are no problems at all.

Hi everybody,
I am working on a c++ program that fail at runtime with the following error:
malloc: * error for object .....: pointer being freed was not allocated * set a breakpoint in mallocerrorbreak to debug
the program I a m working on has the particularity to load dinamically many dynamic libraries.
this error happen on the dlopen(...) of one of them.
I have activated many env variable to have more information (DYLDPRINT*)
But I still dont have the information. I know which library is causing the trouble but I dont know why. especially I think the order the librarie are loaded are in cause because if I load only the library in a simple program, no problem.
My question is: what kind of tools or tips can I have to debug this kind of error runtime?? I understand that I am making a free on something not allocated, but how can I know the name of the object?
Thanks in advanceHello,
yes i tried... I put a symbolic breakpoint and put mallocerrorbreak. after run, it break at the right place, but of course this is only sources in asm that doesnt help me.
My program and libraries are built in debug. but the error happen in function dlopen and malloc that are system library, so not build in debug... so breaking in mallocerrorbreak not help me a lot to understand what is wrong durin the dlopen and why I get this error... -
Photoshop crashing left and right ("pointer being freed was not allocated")
I see a lot of posts about crashes on here but not a lot of useful replies. I'm hoping my try will yield something different.
I've been using PS for well over a decade and for the past few weeks suddenly Photoshop CS6 Extended is crashing at the drop of a hat. There isn't a single trigger. Sometimes it's opening a PSD. Most of the time it's when trying to save a PSD. Occasionally it's when trying to "Replace Contents" on a layer. Here and there it's when moving content on a layer. The one consistent thing is there is always a trigger. It's not just crashing when nothing is going on.
I have tried:
deleting "Adobe Photoshop CS6 Prefs.psp"
creating a new user (still crashes under them)
fixing disk permissions
verifying the memory is "OK"
I have not tried:
Reinstalling PS CS6 Extended
A clean reinstall of OSX
Gutting a chicken and reading the entrails
I am running:

Nothing I do will let me post the full crash log. I thought of breaking it up into chunks but I get lost in the Binary Images part and can't be sure where I left off. I put a copy up here: http://thomassola.com/crash02.txt -

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -
Elements 11 "Unable to save because write access was not granted."
I previously organized and tagged a batch of raw photos using viewNX on my PC. The PC crashed and I am now trying to edit that same batch of photos with Elements 11 on my iMac. I am able to access the photos, but when I try to save my edits I receive the message, "Unable to save because write access was not granted." I am not on a networked computer, no one else has access to the photos, and the photos are not open in any other program. Forgive the ingorance, but the the iMac and Elements 11 are new to me; can anyone help me troubleshoot?
Thank you,
HeidiYou are wonderful!!! You nailed it:) I need to reformat my hard drive for my Mac and meanwhile save my edited photos elsewhere. I can't tell you how grateful I am for your input...I have over 200 portraits to edit for a non-profit fundraiser in two weeks. Thank you!!!

Hi All,
I'm getting this exception "The SPListItem being updated was not retrieved with all taxonomy fields." when i try to programatically update a taxonomy field of a list item. Can any1 pls tell me why this exception occurs ???Recently hit this myself, as well. Turns out it's a central admin setting that throttles the lookup return count, and Taxonomy fields are just lookups under the hood.
Go into Central Administration, Manage Web Applications, select your web application, and then in the ribbon choose the dropdown under General Settings select Resource Throttling. Find the setting for "List View Lookup Threshold" and raise
it from the default 8 (can go up to 1000, but 20 is likely fine depending how many lookup fields you're pulling back in your SPListItem). -
Could not save because write access was not granted.
Hi
I use lightroom 4 whit photoshop CS6 when I send any file from my NAS server whit LR4 to PS6 when I want save it take "Could not save because write access was not granted" .
But I didn't have this problem whit LR3.6 and PS5.
I use mac os x 10.7.4This always happens to me on the NAS on LR3 and LR4. If the file is local, no problem. But on the NAS it has issues with permissions. For me it says the file is in use and can't be overwritten. I'm trying a new drive today with a differnet filesystem (HFS+). Maybe that will work better.

Can't save documents "write access was not granted" message
Arrrrg. I'm coming from a PC to an iMac, and upgraded from CS3 to CS5. When I open docs on the Mac in CS5 that I created in CS3 on my PC, I get the error message when I try to save the doc that says "Could not save because write access was not granted." What is this? What do I need to do to be able to edit and save my PS docs?
You can format the drive to FAT32 and both the PC and Mac will read and write to it. FAT32 formatting has a limitation that no one, single, file can be greater than 4GB in size.
Be aware, reformatting will erase all data so be certain to back up everything first.
You can also use products like MacFuse (http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/) which will allow the Mac to write to the NTFS format. -
Save point with POJO DataControl not saving model state
Hi Guys,
JDEV 11.1.1.6 64bit
I was able to get save points working with ADF BC (AppMod, View & Entity objects)
but when I tried to do the exact same with Pojo DataControls, I won't save
the current state of the model - meaning things are not "selected" to the
proper record when the SP is restored. I don't get any errors, it just
shows the wrong data.
Example:
The BTF is marked as must have transaction(tried either way), but this is Pojo, and doesn't support Trx.
edit-emp-dept.jspx (with BTF Region)
BTF START
STEP 1: RichTable with bindings to Pojo DataControl (value="#{bindings.allDepts.collectionModel}")
(user selects the 3 record => sales department)
STEP 2: Edit Sales Dept & on click to next step create SP
STEP 3: View Emps (Rich Table of ALL emps in that DEPT)
STEP 4: Edit Emp
FINAL: COMMIT (save to pojo list) or CANCEL (don't save to pojo list)
/BTF END
At STEP 1 -> STEP 2, the SP is created, and when I close the browser at STEP2, 3 or 4, and
restart, and choose SP to restore, it takes me to proper page (STEP 2) but the wrong Department is
selected to edit (it shows "Finance" instead of "Sales") & if I hit my ADF back button, it shows
the table with "finance" selected. In the ADF BC world it works perfectly.
I know the docs say: the ADF Model is saved, so the question is why bindings.allDepts.collectionModel
not "saved" here for Pojo DC and the ADF BC af:table value="#{bindings.DepartmentsView1.collectionModel}"
it is "saved".
Thanks for any insight or work-around.
Sincerely,
Joel

</jsp:root>Hi,
the problem with POJO DC and other non-ADF BC models is that they don't passivate their state. In JDeveloper 12c we allow developers to extend their POJO classes with ADF lifecycle methods that allows them to save the model state themselves. Its a known issue that the transaction state cannot be saved for non-ADF BC models. I checked the bug database for bugs filed against this behavior but could not find one- I can imagine that with 12c we would have a chance to allow developers to handle passivation / activation for non-ADF BC model states. So if this is a feature you need then filing an enhancement request would make sense

Could not save because write access was not granted (Mac OS)
I keep getting the above error when working off of my xserve in photoshop. It is new in CS5 which we have recently upgraded to. Several people at my office are getting it. Sometimes it displays a random name with afp in front of it (I assume it is the temp name when photoshop is swapping out the new file for the old file.) It only seems to happen with psd and psb files. I have write access to the volume in question and it doesn't matter if I am the only one accessing the folder or not. I can save as and it seems to work; but it does delete the file.
Very frustrating. Anybody have any ideas? My IT guys are struggling with it, and one of them used to work on the Flash team as well as at Apple.The following shots are of test files from a production server running Xinet Fullpress, I mention the extremeZIP article because it is the only seemingly solidly documented article on an issue that quite a few people seem to be having.
So I ran some tests to recreate the problem, because if it can't be recreated it's not a problem in the IT world I know because I am in the IT Dept at an advertising agency here in Chicago administrating over a 130 Macs… so that aside, here's a long winded run down of the tests
I've posted screenshots at:
http://picasaweb.google.com/116782194976328390062/PhotoshopFileSavingIssue?authkey=Gv1sRgC MK3xpaVrIfFgAE
And a movie of a Save action stuck attempting to save to .afpDeleted file while the source file is not on the server:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FgmaaPamvc
These are unlisted galleries and videos and will be removed when no longer needed
2 machines are used for the test
Machine #1 is running OS X 10.6.4 and is browsing the folder with Finder
machine #2 also 10.6.4 with CS5 is saving to the same file at the moment computer #1 is browsing it with Finder and generating a preview
Most times, the file is deleted and replaced, Finder will "kick you out" of the folder when the file is resaved, or other times show no preview, the timing needs to be precise (yet we have users who aren't trying this on purpose at all and manage to have this happen to them!).
When a write error does occur sometimes it says:
A)
"Could not save "name" because write access was not granted" with the correct name used and the files remains.
B)
"Could not save "name" because write access was not granted" with the correct name used and the original file is gone but a .afpDeletedxxxxxxxx file is found in the directory via Terminal
C)
"Could not save "name" because write access was not granted" with the name .afpDeletedxxxxxxxxxx used and the original file is gone although the .afpDeleted file is found via terminal, it can be copied to a name that Finder will not hide, but it's hidden flags are set and 'chflags nohidden' needs to be run for it to appear in Finder
In scenario C, Photoshop will attempt to save to the .afpDeleted name with using Save even though the document name is being displayed properly in the Photoshop window. Using lsof it can be seen that Photoshop have the resource fork in use (only after the 2nd save attempt though), closing all open documents will still have this file in use, only upon quitting will it not be.
I wish I had taken a look at the .afpDeleted flags to see if it was locked or not during this, but lsof results of it being in use is pretty weird!
So here's some more puzzling evidence, thanks for your help. -
Could not save because write access was not granted+lightroom 4.2
Hi

But when I send a file in LR whit Open finder to PS ans save to network storage evreything work ok but I have to do Sync again lightroom.

After MacOS 10.7.2 update Photoshop CS5 files are not saving when opened directly from an Apple AFP Server (10.5.8). Error dialog: Could not save "file name" because write access was not granted. If canceled, the file disappears from the server. Worked fine in 10.7.1. Anyone else have this problem? Help.
I have been working on this for the last few days. I'm getting the Could not save "file.psd" because write access was not granted. error when I open a file from my Leopard server.
I have a variety of machines in the office that I have been using to test with. It seems that the server understands who the files 'owner' is, not only by visually getting info, but with the command line, manually checking permissions. The workstations connecting to the server are in various states of confusion based on their OS. Some show the owner correctly (Leopard OS), while others (Snow Leopard and Lion) show (_unknown) as the owner. The lack of understanding of sho the file owner is seems to be the culprit, but I can't fogire out how to address it, as it's not a permission issue in my thought, rather an issue with the workstations and their OS.
I will say that intil about 2 weeks ago, we didn't have this problem. So I wonder if there has been an Apple pdate that changes something that could be causing this.
How this manifests itself, and is a real nightmare waiting to happen is when working on files from the server. I open Photoshop to edit and save a file on a Leopard machine, the files saves fine. When I do the exact same thing on Snow Leopard or Lion machine, I get Could not save "file.psd" because write access was not granted. The files disappears and I have to save again to save it. When I go back to the Leopard machine to open the file, it opens and saves just fine.
As a test, I cleared my keychains on the Lion and Snow Leopard machines, but that didn't help.
Has anyone been able to figure out anything on this so far? -

Hi,
Every time I start iTunes, it crashes with the following error :
incorrect checksum for freed object - object was probably modified after being freed.
The problem occurs after I last added new tunes from external mp3 files.
Maybe a corrupted file ?
How can this make iTunes crash ?
Anyway, anybody knows how to find the guilty file ?
Are there any logs ?
Thanks.In the Console window, select
DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.
