Dell SB Live 5.1 used in another desk

I am having serious problems trying to use my dell SB Li've card in another computer, in particular with the MIDI. I connected the MIDI output to a keyboard, and usually an icon in Sonar, a music editing software, tells me if it recognizes when the keyboard is played, but in this case nothing. I tried a number of things, including flashing the BIOS and disabling the other sound card. I also tested the card's audio outputs just to see, and the audio sounded like it was underwater, and had a massi've delay. I assume i am having troubles because it's not in a dell, but I am wondering if it's as simple as that, or if there are some things that I can do to make it useable.
Thanks in advance for any help that you are able to provide.

Try using the kX drivers. Admittingly, I also use kX on my XP MCE2005 box because the Creative drivers hang during install on MCE2005. I've also tested it under Vista 32 and it appears to work (didn't stick to Vista 32 because it was problematic and lacked certain features i.e. What-U-Hear for me). Good luck!

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.

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.
Now, looking at this paragraph:
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:
I wonder what runtime was deployed to the server. E.g.; if you are using CR 10.5, your assemblies will be 10.5.3700 and you should be deploying the following runtime (depending on 32 bit / 64 bit, etc.):

I can't eject ("files in use by another application") Windows/Vista Issue?

OK... so in the grand scheme of things, this really is NOT the end of the world... but it sure is super-annoying!! This is my first every Apple product (took a while to get on the bandwagon) and I was hoping for more stability and ease of use... I've called AppleCare several times and they can't help me figure this out... according to them it's a Windows/Vista issue (which DOES seem likely). I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium on a Dell Dimension E521.
Here's how it goes... I plug my iPod in, which opens up iTunes and it syncs fine. I wait until the top of iTunes says "sync complete" and the face of the iPod simply says "Connected". Then I click on the "eject" button next to the iPod listing in iTunes. It pauses for a moment, then I look down and the iPod suddenly has those syncing, circular arrows, moving again and it says "Synchronizing- do not disconnect". And then a few moments later, iTunes gives me a pop-up that says " XXXX ipod cannot be ejected because it contains files that are in use by another application"
So obviously, something else is connecting to the iPod and preventing me from ejecting it using iTunes, but I have not been able to figure out what it is!
Since it's something on my machine, I have tried the following:
- shut down AntiVirus (TrendMicro Internet Security 2008)
- turned off Windows Firewall
- went through all the programs running in the task bar and turned them off
- opened up Task Manager and turned EVERYTHING else I could see off
None of the above have made any difference. The workaround that Apple gave me was to go into Computer and then right click on the listed drive and select "Safely Remove" which usually works (the times it doesn't work, it gives a similar message saying the device was being used by another application and can't be removed, try again later). But 90% of the time it works.
I use that or the Eject option when I right click on that drive (not sure the difference, they seem to do the same thing). The workaround works, but I'd sure LOVE to get iTunes to be able to eject my iPod!!
Here's what I've done regarding this iPod and iTunes:
- reset the iPod
- restored the iPod
- uninstalled and re-installed iTunes
- selected and unselected the various things I'm syncing (currently: Music, TV Shows, Podcasts, Photos) to see if it was one of them causing the issue
NONE of the above has made any difference (and I've done each about 2-3 times, ZERO exaggeration).
I've called into AppleCare about half a dozen times now, hoping to get that one brilliant tech that knows more than the others... but no luck yet... so I thought I'd try this forum to see if one of the brilliant posters here can help me sort this out.
PLEASE- ANY help you can provide (or even just point me in the "right" direction of how to determine this) would be GREATLY appreciated!!
Thanks so much in advance,
SC

I am using windows Vista and having this problem also (not exactly, but iTunes gives pop-up that "files are in use"). Acting a suggestion from another answer in this thread, I clicked on Computer and selected eject...windows did warn me that the device was in use, but also gave me a CONTINUE button, which I clicked and it was ejected...had to go back to iTunes and eject the iPod there also, but it did eject

Ipod cannot be updated to version 1.2 due to use by another application

Keep on getting error in trying to update Ipod to version 1.2 (I have have Itunes 7.0 and Ipod version is 1.1.2). Says "it contains files that are in use by another application". Also tried restoring, etc and same error: "Ipod cannot be RESTORED because it contains files that are in use by another application".
Weird..
Mitch tried to help...but not exactly same problem. At least I am not getting the horrible error message that others are getting...
Please help..

I'm having this same problem, and I've tried disabling all security, scouring the processes in Task Manager, restarts, and a few other things, to no avail.
I may still be able to update songs, but any post-iTunes7 video is unavailable (not that I ever watch vids on my iPod anyway, but someday, maybe...).
Could this be a spyware issue? Are you guys using Dells? Could it be some Dell proprietary software? Maybe something for scanning peripherals? It seems to be an uncommon problem. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

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.

Unable to disconnect - files used by another program?

Looking for some help. Last few times I've connected my iPod to my computer, it won't let me eject it after the update is complete. When I click either eject button, I get a message claiming that some of the files are being used by another program and it can not eject the iPod. However, I have no other programs running at anytime will iTunes is running. I end up going into My Computer and ejecting the drive from there, but I really should be able to do it through iTunes.
Anyway of finding out what the files that are being "shared" are? Should I convert all of my files to one specific format?

Cannot disconnect iPod - files being used by another application

This is the first time I've connected my new iPod to my brand new computer(Dell E510 loaded). I've been able to down load some albums, and it has been charging (via usb port on tower) for 8 hours. When I try to eject the iPod via itunes I get the error. " iPod can not be disconnected since some of its files are being used by another application. Try again later" I don't have any other applications running. Since this if the 1st time I'm using it, I'm hesitant to follow any of the R procedures. So I close iTunes and open it again. Sometimes it recognizes the iPod and doesn't other times. Thanks for any input

I don't have McAfee and this happens to me as well (every single time since I got the 5th Gen Ipod last month).
I have been clicking on the "safely remove hardware" icon in the toolbar, and manually disconnecting it that way. It seems to work alright.
The annoying thing is that this is only an issue with my 5th gen Ipod. My Ipod Mini has never had any trouble disconnecting the normal way.

This file is already open or in use by another application Error Message

I can't seem to save my AI files any more without getting an error message stating, "This file is already open or in use by another program." None of the previous forums have helped to resolve this problem. The problem begins when I open an Illustrator file that I have previously created, make a few changes, then try to save it under the same name. I am forced to change the name, which it then saves under the new name. Then, I have to restart the computer in order to delete the old file. This entire process takes enormous amounts of time. Working on WinXP using AI CS. I've researched this problem for months, but can't resolve it myself.

Jenifer,
I've been dealing with this problem for a year, and it is a big time waster. Here is a solution someone gave me which resolves the problem. However, there is a tradeoff- one problem for another.
There is a file named aiicon.dll in Program Files > Common Files > Adobe > Shell. If you rename this file to aiiconold.dll (don't delete it), the problem with saving and deleting files will be resolved. However, the tradeoff is that you will lose your Illustrator thumbnails for your AI files. See for yourself. I've been doing it this way for a month or two, and I can live without the thumbnails most of the time. The nice thing about renaming the aiicon.dll file is that you can go back to the original name anytime, and everything will be as it was in the beginning.
I guess Illustrator has an incompatibility issue with the new operating systems. I don't think there are any perfect solutions. But I keep looking. I am as frustrated with AI as you are.

Flash thinks that my isight is in use by another program -- when its not.

When a flash page calls my webcam for use (like Yahoo Live), I get the following error: "Camera is unavailable, may be in use by another application." I've checked, and nothing else is using the camera.
I went into the system and found out that the webcam is controlled by the following component.
System > Library > Quicktime > QuickTimeComponents.component
When I remove the component from the above location, Flash says that there is no webcam. When I put it back, I get the error message stated above.
Now, I didnt always have this problem... Yahoo Live used to work great, but then I installed Skype, and now it wont work... I then uninstalled Skype, removed it from my login items and everything, but still, Yahoo Live wont work. I then tried the something on my Macbook, and the same thing.
Does anyone know whats going on here?
Both my iMac and Macbook running Leopard have this same issue.
Im thinking that the above quicktime component is messed up and needs to be replaced with the original one.. What do you all think?
Thanks,
Brandon

Hello Brandon
You can use the suggestions in Apple's How to Troubleshoot iSight to help find the source of your problem and perhaps eliminate iSight as a contributor.
Unless your problem is with iSight itself, your troubleshooting may lead you to the root cause.
Try some other Flash-based video website to determine whether your problem is only with Yahoo or some system component.
Have you tried to configure your "Flash" settings as described here?
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4761707&#4761707
If you cannot even get to the Flash settings window, you may have damaged software. Try the following:
• Backup your Home Folder, or at very least, your important files.
• Repair permissions. (Click here if you need help.)
• Then download and apply the Mac OS X 10.5.2 Combo Update.
• Finish with another Permissions Repair, and then check your iSight again.
Users have reported fixes to a variety of audio, video, connectivity, and software conflicts and unreliability issues after properly applying Combo Updates.
Try a different browser (Firefox, Camino, etc.) to see if your problem might be in Safari.
Have you tried reinstalling QuickTime? Repair permissions before installing QT and again after the restart that finishes the QT update.
If you still believe that the problem is QuickTime related, you might get better help by searching or posting in QuickTime Discussions.
Beyond that, I would suggest that you reinstall all of your Mac's software and see if everything works before you add any third-party apps or peripherals.
Please let us know what you find.
Cheers,

"File is already open or in use by another application"

I get "File is already open or in use by another application" when opening a PDF in Acrobat and Reader. Only happens intermittently.Files are on a network share.
It doesn't seem to happen as often if Acrobat/Reader are already running. Sometimes it works on the 2nd try, other times it takes upwards of 7 or 8. Not entirely sure if this is an Adobe issue as I've completely reinstalled both programs.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Web cam wont start message says in use by another application

Hello I have recently purchased the Creative LIve!Cam Optia and for some reason the person I am talking to can't see me but I can see them just fine. Every time I go to call someone on Skype I plug in my camera and when the person answers a message pops up in the call tab saying "video error cannot find video source , check to see if it is in use by another application". I have no idea what other application could be using it because I ended up installing most of what came on the installation Cd. I have tried everything from selecting tools on skype then hit options, then I clicked on video settings, then I selected Li've!Cam Optia as my web cam as opposed to selecting default web cam. Then the same message pops up again " Skype did not find preferred video source. Webcam could be in use by another application". The thing that really frustrates me is that sometimes it works perfectly find then it freezes and I try to restart the video and then I loose it completely! PLease help someone I have returned camera prior to this one I don't want to have to do it again for this one. Thank you.

Two choices left - download iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - and use its rebuild command - this will rebuild yoru library leaving the original untouched so you can go back to it is things do not make yo happy - this will keep your edits, metadata and events but will not keep projects
If that does not work Right click on the iPhoto library and show package contents - look in the masters folder - are your original photos there? If so (and if you have adaquate disk space) duplicate the masters folder and rename the iPhoto library "iPhoto library old" - depress the option key and launch iPhoto ancd create a new library - drag the masters folder to the iPhoto icon in the Dock to import your original photos with your events
This will give you a new library with your originals - edits, projects and metadata changes will not be available
And critically start Time Machine up and leave it running

I can't attach a document if it is open "in use by another application"

If I try to attach a word document in Windows Live Hotmail, it says the document is in use by another application. I have to close the application to attach it. This just started recently.

Hi,
one cannot. Application runs in black box and does not know a lot of things. So when "getCamera" is returning null there are dozens of possible reasons: use by other application is one of them and other includes camera not being plugged in, camera being plugged in but not switched on, etc.
I think that checking Camera.names" length will ensure that there is at least one enabled camera input on system btw. Showing security panel for Camera could let user to make correction in what camera is to be used by runtime, etc.

Peter

"cannot be ejected because it contains files in use by another application"

Help! I don't know what to do to be able to disconnect my new ipod nano from itunes. I am not a sophisticated technology individual. I don't want to cause damage to my computer or my new ipod. Can you please tell me what I need to do in order to be able to disconnect my ipod? Our family actually purchased 3 ipods and the other two did not have this problem at all (they are all set up under separate user names and have different music associated with them). Every time I click on the icon to disconnect this ipod it appears as though I can disconnect it for a few seconds and then the message "the ipod cannot be ejected becuase it contains files that are in use by another application". I really appreciate any help you can provide!

Hi clb047 and Welcome to Discussions!
I would first try to quit iTunes. See if you can eject the iPod from My Computer. Or, try to eject the iPod the way you would disconnect another device such as a digital camera.
Try restarting your computer. Restarting quits all applications - so maybe this will help close the application that is using the iPod.
If you have any type of antivirus software, this could be trying to use or scan the iPod. However, I am not too sure about that.

IPod contains files that are in use by another application

If you have ever received a message from iTunes saying that, "iTunes cannot update iPod because it contains files that are in use by another application," then take a look at this thread because I have had many problems with this and discovered a solution that most likely will work. Ok, lets begin:
1. Updating/Restoring does not work. If you have this problem and get the above message continue reading.
2. Plug your iPod into your USB port. Allow iTunes to load and recognize the iPod. It shall update itself automatically.
3. When iTunes is finished, go to the "Start Menu."
4. Open "My Computer"
5. On the main screen, scroll to "Devices with Removable Storage." Click on your iPod.
6. After clicking on the iPod, go to the left-side bar and under "System Tasks," click "Eject this disk."
7. Once this is done, return to iTunes and click "Update."
8. It should come up with a message saying something like, "Updating (Name of iPod) iPod."
Congratulations, you have just solved your problem! Good luck enjoying the wonderful updates that iTunes has to offer.
Darth Bob
P.S. Let me know if there is anything I can imporve on, I'm sort of new to this, but love messing with the computer. Thank You!

I am experiencing the same message when I try and sync either my or my wife's iPod on my Mac. I simply acknowledge it and everything seems to work fine but I wonder what's going on. I used to have problems dismounting my iPod but that seems to have gone away with iTunes 7.
Any thoughts for us Mac guys?
