Error -43 file cannot be found

I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit, and after updating QT to 7.5 (861) - I cannot play ANY .mov files on my system.
The browser plugin for IE7 appears to be working, but not for Firefox. I get the Error 43 message when trying to open any .MOV file, and the Error 1856 when I try to view QT files in Firefox.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have downloaded and installed the latest Itunes64Setup.exe, and run it, but am still having problems.

Tried running QuickTime Player as Administrator, and it runs just fine now. This wasn't necessary until the latest update to QT.

Error: Original file cannot be found, would you like to locate it?

My computer crashed, so I bought a new laptop. I have everything backed up on an external hard drive. I tried to transfer everything from the external drive to my new laptop, and now all of my music appears to be listed in itunes. However, when i try to play a music file I'm getting an error that says the original file cannot be found, would you like to locate it? Any ideas?

Select a broken track and press ctrl-i to Get Info. Look on the summary tab for the location where iTunes "thinks" the file should be. Where is it really? Post back the two locations and I can suggest the best approach.

All my itunes files are visible but none will play. Error message file cannot be found

All my track file names and other details are visible in Itunes but none will play. single click on a track and an exclamation mark embeds at the front of the track name bar double click or click play and the error message I get says, "The song could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it? A search doesn't find it.
This applys to every track on itunes but music files in the music folder in Finder still play. Can anyone Help please

Is it possible that you moved the iTunes Media folder using Finder (or renamed something along the path)? The reason this happened is because iTunes cannot find the song files where they were previously located. However, you know where they are located (in the "music folder," so you can find the files using Finder and play them.
That you need to do is to put the files back where they were previously located. If you need to change the location of the files, you can use iTunes to move the files, so that iTunes can keep track of their new locations. This article provides instructions

I FOUND THE FIX: iPhone Photo Copying Error - Required file cannot be found

This was driving me crazy for weeks.
The solution is quite easy. I noticed that I could import new photos and they would copy. But when I tried to do folders that were there for a while, I would get the error. So I assumed some database had to be corrupt since the photos were viewable in iPhoto. I tried exporting a library and reimporting it and those copied. So I KNEW it was a database issue.
iPhoto creates "iPhone/iPod" versions of any photo you copy to a device. Even when you remove it from the device, it still saves "the iPod" version in case you re-add it. So the solution is to delete all of these versions. I have provided easy instructions.
*Before doing this...make sure to write down which events/albums you keep on your iPhone because doing this will remove all of those selections. You will have to redo them afterwords. But unlike your current situation...it will WORK and actually sync. These directions will require you to delete all of the photos on your device, too (not your camera roll).*
1. In iTunes UNCHECK "Sync Photos from iPhoto". When it asks you about deleting all of the photos...do it. Let it remove all of your photos.
2. Eject your iPhone and exit iTunes. Also make sure you have exited iPhoto.
3. Find the iPhone Library you are using. Right Click and choose "SHOW PACKAGE CONTENTS".
4. Find the "iPod Photo Cache" folder and delete it.
5. Go back into iTunes and Re-enable "Sync Photos from iPhoto". Choose what you want to copy...and click sync.
Viola.

For some reason iPhoto uses *"iPod Photo Cache"* for both devices including your *iPod or iPhone*.
So even if you have an iPhone...follow my directions. The apply to any device. iPhone, iPad, iPod...and its the same for all versions of iPhone and iPod, too.
Right click on your iPhoto library. It still labels it as "iPod Photo Cache" even though you have an iPhone or iPad. I don't know why. Ask our uncle Steve.

"Cannot open Help. The file cannot be found." Error on Treo Pro

I can see a support item listed on my phone when I try to search the Help files, but when I click on that item, it gives me an error message, "Cannot oepn Help. The file cannot be found."
I am trying to block telemarketer calls, and it looks like there is a way to do it. Two help references come up - "Setting Options for rejecting calls" and "Blocking Calls." I just can't access them.
Thanks in advance!

Post relates to: Treo Pro T850 (Sprint)

From the Owners Guide http://www.palm.com/us/support/handbooks/treopro/treoproT850E_UG.pdf But I dont think its what your looking for.
Setting options for rejecting a call By default, when you reject an incoming
call, the caller is sent to voicemail. You can
change this setting so that, in addition to
sending the caller to voicemail, a text
message opens. This message contains
default text and is addressed to the caller
so that you can send the message right
away. You can also change the default text
of the message.
1 Press Start and select Settings.2 On the Personal tab, select Phone .3 Select the Advanced tab.4 To turn on the text message feature, check the Reject call with text
message box.
5 (Optional) To change the content of the message, select the text in the box and
enter the text you want.6 Press OK .

Another "there was an error opening this document. this file cannot be found"-question

Hello people, as the title suggests, i have another question regarding the "there was an error opening this document. this file cannot be found" error. I have searched on Google and on these forums but i havent found an answer to my particular case (sorry if i overlooked it).
I work at a supportdesk for a company that uses Windows XP with Adobe Reader version 8.1.3.
Users are getting this error when they access a PDF file placed on a (mapped) networkdrive. Contrary to some other cases i have found on this forum, spaces are handled without a problem. But a comma in the name of one of the folders that contain the PDF file are what causes this error.
i.e.:
Opening the following path results in the error:
L:\X, Y & Z\adobe.pdf
Removing the comma so the path becomes:
L:\X Y & Z\adobe.pdf
works just fine.
So far our workaround has always been to simply remove the comma and move on, but I've been wondering why this comma is such a problem for Adobe Reader. As far as i know Adobe Reader is the only program we use that has this issue, M$ Word works just fine with it to name an example.
To sum my questions up:
- Why is comma (,) a problem for Adobe Reader?
- Have i missed any patches/new versions where this issue has been addressed?
- What is Adobe's stance on this, and are there any plans to "fix" this?

Ok, nevermind, we just found the problem
It's not Adobe Reader that is causing this, but another program the company uses to manage/distribute/authorise programs that users are allowed to access (Scense). I had never even considered another problem could have caused this for Reader.

Message'there was an error opening this document.The file cannot be found'

Using xp home and when I click to download the pdf file, it will give 3 options been 'open'/'save'/?. When I choose the 'open' option, it will give me the above message "there was an error opening this document.The file cannot be found"
owever if I choose to "save" and I will be able to open the file and read it. In this pc its using Adobe Reader 8.1.2 with a patch. It was working fine prior to this sudden occurance of the error.
Strangely I have another pc with the same specification, I was able to choose "open" and be able to read the file. Can anyone help to resolve the issue by using the "open' option instead of "save, then open". Greateful for your prompt response.

Fyi, in addition to my earlier post, the other pc is using Adobe 8.1.1 and no other patch. I was trying to find 8.1.1 version but could not find a trust worthy site to load from. Do you think the error caused by using the 8.1.2 version? Thanks

There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be found

An automation script on one of our QA environments kept tripping on the error: "There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be found". The same script ran fine against our Production servers (hint, which were "whitelisted").
It took a little time to resolve/trace what was happening (but with the aid of ProcessMonitor and tracing all "pdf"-related file activity...)
The problem lies squarely between McAfee (75%), Adobe (20%) and Microsoft (5%):
NORMAL WORKFLOW. IE (Internet Explorer) when popping a PDF document, has to (1) write the document to the IE cache, then (2) launching and "handing off" the document reference to the Adobe viewer (which might then be able to open the document, et al) -- assuming largely a "synchronous" workflow.
BUT "WAIT", HOLD THE HORSES -- McAfee takes ownership and decides infact "wait for us" (during the workflow), it wants to first perform a virus scan on the document (ahead of writing the document to cache) involving potentially large latency (delay) before making the document available to the system. However, instead of "fessing up"-that their scan may be taking too long, McAfee appears to have taken their work "off-line" in violation of the sychronous interface above. I'm guessing the developers at McAfee might have been trying to hide any extra processing overhead being incurred by assuming they could somehow convert this to an "asychronous" event. (This may also have more reach than just PDF's.)
Unfortunately, the browser's "PDF OPEN"-dialog box pops allowing Adobe to launch-and-open the "as-yet-not-virus-scanned-and-thus-not-yet-cached"-document. Thus clicking the OPEN-button will cause the related "...FILE NOT FOUND"-error to be seen (because the file is still in McAfee "limbo").
Note: If you close the ADOBE reader (but don't yet close the popup-OPEN-dialog) you can click OPEN a second time and it will probably now open the document - which McAfee finally finished scanning!
You can observe all these interactions with ProcessMonitor, and use the monitored file states to adjust the timings of events to reproduce both the failure and non-failure scenarios.
- Best Regards, Ziggy
ps. My assessed distribution of "ownership" of the problem is because ALL these parties should be aggressively resolving this for the customer-base!

What, exactly, were you trying to do when you got it, and how?

Error message: iTunes Library.itl file cannot be found or created

I just upgraded to iTunes 7.0.2 and it will not launch. The following error appears:
"The iTunes Library.itl file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "MyMusic" folder"
I have uninstalled, re-installed and tried all the possible solutions on the Troubleshooting section, including repair and nothing works. I have both a Library.itl and a Library.xml file in the following path: C:\Documents and Setting\user\My Documents\My Music\iTunes - not sure what to do next.
Right now I'd take my old version back if I could figure out how to get it.
Dell Dimension 5150 Windows XP Pro

When you get that message, does iTunes give you the option of locating the file? If so, then browse to the file and select it. If you don't get that option, I believe that holding down the shift key (or possibly the control key) when you launch iTunes should cause you to get the option.

Itunes error message - the itunes library.itl file cannot be found or created

My itunes was working yesterday but today when i open it i get an error message saying "the itunes library.itl file cannot be found or created. the default location for this file in in the itunes folder in the music folder."
I have tried to reinstall itunes but still getting the same error when clicking on itunes
Please can you help?

Hold down the Shift key while trying to launch iTunes. You should see a dialog box asking you to Choose or Create a library. Click "Choose library"
Browse to the default location of your iTunes Library.itl file:
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
Windows Vista: \Users\username\Music\iTunes\
Windows 7: \Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
... and doubleclick the file.
Does your iTunes open for you now?

I just upgraded my mac book to 10.6.8 and downloaded the new version of itunes. When I try to open it and error message appears saying, "The iTunes Library file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder.

I have tried a few things but iTunes closes right after i click okay. Anyone know anything?

Look in your Home > Music folder. There should be an iTunes folder there and it should have a number of files and folders including one called library.itl You want to guide iTunes to that file. If you don't see that file or folder then in your next post you will have to be very specific as to what you do see or how you have your iTunes set up because that's where it should be according to default settings.
