End of File error on .nef files

I am beginning to see a growing number of my .nef files becoming visually corrupt in the viewer and showing the "end of file" error when opening in PS or any other application.
The corruption does NOT seem to affect the associated .jpg file (if there is one) but I am also NOT able to generate another "clean" .jpg file with the .nef files that have become corrupt.
I hope that I haven't confused everyone - but this issue is rather baffeling in that I can't seem to pinpoint a cause.
My master files are stored as reference files on a server share - all shot with a Nikon D2X.
Does anyone have an idea of what may be causing this - and better yet - is there a way to reverse the corruption?

I do have a number of other systems that I can use to test from. THe file server is a general purpose server in my home running 10.4.x with all of the latest patches, etc.
I am using a SanDisk card reader to ingest directly into Aperture. The corruptness appears to be random.
I am using a Nikon D2X with a number of CF cards, usually 1 or 2GB in size. I capture recording .nef (RAW) images to the CF card.
My workstation is a PowerMac, Dual G5, with 2.5GB processors and 2.5GB of memory. I am using MacOS 10.4.2 with all of the appropriate patches and updates.
The Server is a PowerMac, Dual G5, with 2.5GB processors and 2.5GB of memory. The server is running MacOS 10.4.x Server, again with all of the appropriate patches and software.
The network is Gigabit speed with one switch between my workstation and the server. The Switch is a GSM7224 L2, 24-port 10/100/1000MBps managed switch.
The users in my home (in this case; me) log into any of a number of workstations in my home and authenticate against the server using LDAP. Once authenticated, home directories are available and stored on the server.
This appears to be network related as I can ingest and save locally to the server and open the files without any corruption.

File error: The specified file is locked - HELP!

hello,
everytime i try and save my project i keep getting the error:
File error: The specified file is locked
i went to the project and "get info" and saw that the file is locked...i also noticed that every other file in my computer is locked as well.
i just got my machine back from the repair shop...is there a setting i can use to turn off all locked files??
thanks,
steven

Paste the text that Neil posted,
*tell application "Finder"*
*set locked of every item of entire contents of home to false*
*end tell*
into the white area under the Record and Run buttons. Then click Compile, then the Run button.

File Error: The Specified file is open and in use by this or another app...

I have imported a string of pictures and dragged them into the FCP timeline. I render them and it renders a certain percentage then it stops and says "File Error: The Specified file is open and in use by this or another application."
After reading this, I quit out of FCP, restarted my computer, opened FCP, nothing other program, tried to render again and same thing happened. It renders part of it then the error message pops up, then I can render again and it will do another percent then it will pop again and so on.
Suggestions, or does anyone know why this happened? Thank you very much for your time.

okay - don't know where you've got your scratch disc set but hopefully it's to another drive other than your boot.
The same drive where your render files should be located, ie some drive other than your boot drive.
Can you copy the jpegs over to that drive into a folder.
Delete them from your tl, delete them from your proj. Save your project. Close fcp.
If they're on your boot drive - delete them.
Reopen fcp and Reimport them from the new location.
Sorry for all the steps - but we have no idea how you have configured fcp or your level of experience. Trying to cover all the bases ...

FILE ERROR: The Specified file is open and in use...

FILE ERROR: The Specified file is open and in use by this or another application.
I get this error when I import a .MOV created by Live Type. All applications, except FCP, are closed. I can reboot the computer and get the same thing. It happens when I try and "render all". Thanks.

It's probably either spotlight looking at the files, or some anti-virus program thinking your render is a virus.

XMP files remain with NEF files in my folder. Camera Raw suddenly reset leaving my edits gone. Will XMP files enable me to resume with those lost edits?

I never tried this, but I'm pretty sure that with DNG files, Lightroom will ignore xmp files, even when you instruct Lightroom to "Read Metadata from File". Lightroom expects all the metadata to be in the DNG file, not in the xmp file.
Pick flags, as far as I know, are never written to xmp file; nor are they written to DNG files.
If you're going to make this transfer procedure work, you need to do it by either (a) embedding the metadata in the DNG file and send those back and forth; or (b) use RAW and xmp and then sending the xmp files back and forth (plus I guess you have to transfer the original RAW once to your editor)

Cannot render files. The following message appears: file error; the specified file is locked

Suddenly I cannot render any project in Final Cut 6, because a message reads: file error: the specified file is locked. Any clues on what to do?

The reason we suggest searching is there are too many possible causes and unlikely answers and FCP6 was a long time ago.

File error: The specified file i locked. when i am trying to render a clip on the time lin e

WHen i want to render a clip on the timeline it tells me this message"file error: The specified file i locked."drive and file and they are not locked.
What setting do i check for this
because up till now the program was rendering all clips on the time lne
I have checked the the drives and files and they are unlocked.
please advise
i have to render the clip from the timeline as n export then bring it back in
annoying !

Before I ask you to check permissions on the drive you save your material and output files, try creating a new project, copy everything from the old one in it (highlight-copy-paste in new project) and save as with a new name. Does this work?

File error - the specified file is locked, Final cut pro

file error - the specified file is locked, Final cut pro

I usually get this when I try to save a project and it isn't stored on my HD(usually external HD or RAID). Sometimes I can do a save as and save it to the desktop.
Sometimes everything is cleared up with a restart. It seems like it is a FCP7/OS developmental need which is mute because 7 is no longer supported by Apple.

File error: the specific file is locked

I got the error 'File error: the specific file is locked', when trying to render a project in FCP 7. The rushes and scratch disk are on an external hard-drive. I then went on to finder and I am unable to put anything new onto this external hard-drive. I am now trying to back up everything off the hard-drive and will go to disk utility and try repair it and I have saved the FCP project elsewhere.
However there is a lot of footage to back up (probably should have done this already), does anyone know of a quick work-around for this or would could be the cause to save it from happening in the future?
Cheers,
Martin

try moving your scratch disk in fcp system preferences to another drive. Could just be a problem with fcp being unable to write to the drive.

Camera raw 7.4 will not open the D800 NEF Raw files. D300 NEF files open OK

Camera raw 7.4 will not open the compatible D800 NEF Raw files (Win7). D300 NEF files open OK.
I seem to remember seeing an article that stated i would have to uninstall and re-install CS6 Photoshop completely and re-install again. However I cannot find this article now.
If the above is true, having PS version CS4 with update CS5 & 6 installed, would i have to remove all PS versions.
Photoshop error message just states download latetest software version, which i have done with ACR 7.4 nd ACR 8 which did not open file either.
Adobe DNG runs OK but i would rather deal with the original file in ACR rather than adding an additional step with more files to keep track of.
Is there a way of uninstalling all versions of ACR, cleaning system and re-installing ACR, assuming the fault lies with ACR?
Anyone have any answers?

(Appologies for spelling errors but my keyboar hs just packed up). Now on screen keyboard.
Half an hour after posting this query (In the wrong forum - Downloading, Installing, Setting Up) I resolved the issue. The fault lies with Nikon Transfer.
Nikon Transfer corrupts the D800 NEF files. Apparently Nikon Transfer is well known for causing errors.
Drag & dropping the files direct from the cameras memory card onto your hard drive and everything works fine.
Nikon Transfer has now been assigned to the dust bin!

How to store SP2-0310: unable to open file errors in log file

We are using oracle 10g on Linux platform.
When we send scripts to the clients, then we also send a control file that executes all the sql files e.g.
control.sql
SPOOL test.log
SELECT 'Start of Control File at:'||systimestamp from dual;
SPOOL OFF
@./dbscripts/00_insert_scripts.sql
SPOOL test.log APPEND
SELECT 'End of Control File at:'||systimestamp from dual;
SPOOL OFFThe scripts are executed from SqlPlusW only by typing @control.sql
The problem is that when SP2-0310: unable to open file error comes, it appears on the screen only. It does not go in the test.log file. Is there any way to store these errors in a file from SQLPlusW.
Thanks.

try mentioning full path....
try
@<fully qualified path>/00_insert_scripts.sql
also check if the file has necessary permission
ls -l <fully qualified path>/00_insert_scripts.sql

Error running exe to write to exel file: Error 7 New file not found

Hello!I have this problem, i've looked everywhere and i still can't solve it. It would be great if anyone can help me.
I built an application that writes an array to a spreadsheet file.
Everything works fine in Labview 7.1 , i can build the exe file, but
when i try to run it it doesn't work (it doesn't do anything although
in Labview works perfecty well)and i have this error:
<<Error 7 occurred at New File; Possible reason(s):
LabVIEW: File not found. The file might have been moved or
deleted, or the file path might be incorrectly formatted for the
operating system. For example, use \ as path separators on Windows, :
on Mac OS, and / on UNIX.>>
I've attached the vi file and the exe file.
Thank you

You've made a very, very common mistake and one discussed in numerous postings. When running in development mode and using the Current VI's Path, the path to a VI would be something like c:\folder\example.vi. When built, it becomes c:\folder\app.exe\example.vi. An extra strip path is required. Look at this, this, and this.

if i will switch to iPhoto '08 does it make any differnce?
No. You need to sort this problem out first.
What's happening is that iPhoto cannot find these files. Where are they? DO you have a Managed Library (the files ARE copied to the iPhoto Library Folder on import?) or a Referenced Library (y (the files ARE NOT copied to the iPhoto Library Folder on import?)
Check this setting at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced.

Confuse between temp file error and perment file error

during the weekend, i usually maintain our database and this weekend i end up with strange situation,
i lunched my scripts to reorginize datafiles, however the scripts is crash all the time due to weird message which is in my opinion is misleading ora message.
this is the situaion:
i am using this scripts to tell me if my datafiles are full or not
1 L_INDEX 24 107.12109375 103.74609375 3.375 0 96.8493600262553 3.15063997374467
2 L_TABLES 30 108.2939453125 97.1689453125 11.125 0 89.7270341680719 10.2729658319281
as you can see, the free space on the l_index tablespace is now 3G and need to reogrinze to free space, however when we run our scripts to free spaces by moving objects to tools tablespace and then return them back,
I recieve this message:
ORA-01652: unable to extend temp segment by .......
to solve this error is adding new temp files, however we have 5 temps file and there were pantly of space there and also i add 2 new files with size 1g and maxsize is 32G, still i am receving this error and my scripts crash when i try to rebuild the index,
the workaround was is adding new datafile to l_index and try again to rebuild the index and it works,
so i am wondering if the problem was on the datafiles, why i recieved error about temp, i waste some time thinking that my problem was with temp, however the real problem came from l_index tablespace.
oracle verison is 10.1.0.4 and os is windows
Thanks

ORA-01652: unable to extend temp segment by Temporary tablespace is also used when re-creating or creating indexes in database.
A temp segment is created the moment create or re-build indexes command is issued and will be held until the index is being created completely. If either of the tablespace have insufficient space, you might get the error ORA-1652 or ORA 1654.
You should be looking at the tablespace name for adding space instead of looking temp segment.
ORA-1652: unable to extend temp segment by in tablespace
