Excel saving issues error: Someone else is working right now, please try again later"

Excel saving issues  error: Someone else is working right now, please try again later"        
I am running W8.1 with Office 2013 and accessing a shared drive, When I try to save an excel document back to the shared drive - I get the error msg
"Someone else is working in "servername\share\filename" right now, please try again later"
I can see that there is no one else accessing this file at all. I created a brand new file, added content, saved and got the same error.
When I use a W7 with Office 2013 accessing the same share drive, accessing the same file - I am able to save the document without issues.
Does anyone have any ideas what this could be.  Both of these situations are while working from home using a company vpn connection. It does not happen when in the office using either W8.1 or W7.
Peter.

Hi,
Saves when saving locally. Its looking more like W8.1 on a VPN connection that is causing the issue. What can I look for
I mean you can try to save it to local drive(like drive c:) and then copy it to shared drive.
If you gain the access to the shared file server, you can check the file status when you open this file.
Also you can check your event log to see which process causes this error.
Since I'm not familiar with VPN, I'd suggest you post your issue to the following forum:

  • Why am I getting ExchangeWebServices Inbox Error: Error, ErrorServerBusy. The server cannot service this request right now. Try again later

    I recently switched my application that uses EWS from an on-premise Exchange Server to Exchage Online through Office356.
    The process worked just fine for several days, then I started getting the following errors;
    Error accessing [USERNAME] email account.; ExchangeWebServices Inbox Error: Error, ErrorServerBusy, The server cannot service this request right now. Try again later. --> 
    This has been happening for the past 14 hours now. 
    I contacted my Office365 support team and they acted like they had never heard of the Exchange Web Services API, so no help there.
    I can access the mailbox using the O365 web portal and I can access the mailbox account using the Outlook 2013 desktop client. The issue seems specific to EWS
    My program is a Windows service, written in VB.Net. It connects to EWS, goes to the user account inbox, iterates through the inbox extracting attachments from messages, then moves the messages to a saved folder below the inbox.
    I created the wrapper for EWS that I can reference in my project code using the following, run from an elevated VS2012 command prompt;
    wsdl.exe /namespace:ExchangeWebServices /out:EWS.cs https://outlook.office365.com/ews/services.wsdl /username:[email protected] /password:p@ssw0rd
    csc /out:EWS_E2K13_release /target:library EWS.cs
    I bind to EWS in my class, using the following code;
    Imports System.Net
    Imports ExchangeWebServices
    Public Class Exchange2013WebServiceClass
        Private ExchangeBinding As New ExchangeServiceBinding
        Public Sub New(ByVal userEmail As String, ByVal userPassword As String, ByVal URL As String)
            ExchangeBinding.Credentials = New NetworkCredential(userEmail, userPassword)
            ExchangeBinding.Url = URL
        End Sub
    The error that is logged gets triggered when my code makes a call to the following method;
        Public Function GetInboxMessageIDs() As ArrayOfRealItemsType
            Dim returnInboxMessageIds As ArrayOfRealItemsType = Nothing
            Dim errMsg As String = String.Empty
            'Create the request and specify the travesal type.
            Dim FindItemRequest As FindItemType
            FindItemRequest = New FindItemType
            FindItemRequest.Traversal = ItemQueryTraversalType.Shallow
            'Define which item properties are returned in the response.
            Dim ItemProperties As ItemResponseShapeType
            ItemProperties = New ItemResponseShapeType
            ItemProperties.BaseShape = DefaultShapeNamesType.IdOnly
            'Add properties shape to the request.

            'Add folders to the request.
            FindItemRequest.ParentFolderIds = FolderIDArray
            Try
                'Send the request and get the response.
                Dim FindItemResponse As FindItemResponseType

                ResponseMessage = FindItemResponse.ResponseMessages.Items
                Dim FindItemResponseMessage As FindItemResponseMessageType
                If ResponseMessage(0).ResponseClass = ResponseClassType.Success Then
                    FindItemResponseMessage = ResponseMessage(0)
                    returnInboxMessageIds = FindItemResponseMessage.RootFolder.Item
                Else
                    '' Server error
                    Dim responseClassStr As String = [Enum].GetName(GetType(ExchangeWebServices.ResponseClassType), ResponseMessage(0).ResponseClass).ToString

                    Dim messageTextStr As String = ResponseMessage(0).MessageText.ToString
                    Dim thisErrMsg As String = String.Format("ExchangeWebServices Inbox Error: {0}, {1}, {2}", responseClassStr, responseCodeStr, messageTextStr)
                    errMsg = If(errMsg.Equals(String.Empty), String.Empty, errMsg & "; ") & thisErrMsg
                End If
            Catch ex As Exception
                'errMsg = String.Join("; ", errMsg, ex.Message)
                errMsg = If(errMsg.Equals(String.Empty), String.Empty, errMsg & "; ") & ex.Message
            End Try
            If Not errMsg.Equals(String.Empty) Then
                returnInboxMessageIds = Nothing
                Throw New System.Exception(errMsg)
            End If
            Return returnInboxMessageIds
        End Function  
    Since the code worked just fine for several days and then suddenly stopped working with a server busy error, I have to think that this is some type of limit or throttling by EWS on the account. I process several thousand emails per day, in chunks of 300
    at a time. 
    But I have no idea how to check for any limits exceeded. I am nowhere close to my O365 mailbox size limit. Right now, there are over 4,000 messages in my inbox, and growing. 
    Thanks in advance for any ideas you can offer.
    Dave

    All the API's EWS, MAPI, ActiveSync,Remote powershell are throttled on Office365 (based around what 1 particular user could resonably do). If you have had a read of this already i would recommend
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj945066(v=exchg.150).aspx
     You can't adjust or even find your current throttle usage so you have to try to design your code around living inside the default limits. If your using One Service Account to access multiple Mailboxes (or if that account is because used across multiple
    applications) that can cause problems. In this case using EWS Impersonation is good solution as described in
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/exchangedev/archive/2012/04/19/more-throttling-changes-for-exchange-online.aspx (this basically means the Target Mailbox is charged instead of the Service Account).
     Looking at the code one thing I notice missing is your don't appear to be paging the results of FindItems, also have versioned your requests to Exchagne2013. eg ". When the value of the
    RequestServerVersion element indicates Exchange 2010 or an earlier version of Exchange, the server sends a failure response with error code
    ErrorServerBusy. If the value of the RequestServerVersion
    element indicates a version of Exchange starting with Exchange 2010 SP1
    or Exchange Online, and the client is using paging, EWS may return a
    partial result set instead of an error"
    To Page FindItems Correctly you should use the IndexedPageViewType class and page the Items at no more the 1000 at a time eg something like
    IndexedPageViewType indexedPageView = new IndexedPageViewType();
    indexedPageView.BasePoint = IndexBasePointType.Beginning;
    indexedPageView.Offset = 0;
    indexedPageView.MaxEntriesReturned = 1000;
    indexedPageView.MaxEntriesReturnedSpecified = true;
    FindItemType findItemrequest = new FindItemType();
    findItemrequest.Item = indexedPageView;
    findItemrequest.ItemShape = new ItemResponseShapeType();
    findItemrequest.ItemShape.BaseShape = DefaultShapeNamesType.IdOnly;
    BasePathToElementType[] beAdditionproperties = new BasePathToElementType[3];
    PathToUnindexedFieldType SubjectField = new PathToUnindexedFieldType();
    SubjectField.FieldURI = UnindexedFieldURIType.itemSubject;
    beAdditionproperties[0] = SubjectField;
    PathToUnindexedFieldType RcvdTime = new PathToUnindexedFieldType();
    RcvdTime.FieldURI = UnindexedFieldURIType.itemDateTimeReceived;
    beAdditionproperties[1] = RcvdTime;
    PathToUnindexedFieldType ReadStatus = new PathToUnindexedFieldType();
    ReadStatus.FieldURI = UnindexedFieldURIType.messageIsRead;
    beAdditionproperties[2] = ReadStatus;
    findItemrequest.ItemShape.AdditionalProperties = beAdditionproperties;
    DistinguishedFolderIdType[] faFolderIDArray = new DistinguishedFolderIdType[1];
    faFolderIDArray[0] = new DistinguishedFolderIdType();
    faFolderIDArray[0].Mailbox = new EmailAddressType();
    faFolderIDArray[0].Mailbox.EmailAddress = "[email protected]";
    faFolderIDArray[0].Id = DistinguishedFolderIdNameType.inbox;
    bool moreAvailible = false;
    findItemrequest.ParentFolderIds = faFolderIDArray;
    int loopCount = 0;
    do
    FindItemResponseType frFindItemResponse = esb.FindItem(findItemrequest);
    if (frFindItemResponse.ResponseMessages.Items[0].ResponseClass == ResponseClassType.Success)
    foreach (FindItemResponseMessageType firmtMessage in frFindItemResponse.ResponseMessages.Items)
    Console.WriteLine("Number of Items retreived : " + ((ArrayOfRealItemsType)firmtMessage.RootFolder.Item).Items.Length);
    if (firmtMessage.RootFolder.IncludesLastItemInRange == false)
    moreAvailible = true;
    else
    moreAvailible = false;
    ((IndexedPageViewType)findItemrequest.Item).Offset += ((ArrayOfRealItemsType)firmtMessage.RootFolder.Item).Items.Length;
    Console.WriteLine("Offset : " + ((IndexedPageViewType)findItemrequest.Item).Offset);
    if (firmtMessage.RootFolder.TotalItemsInView > 0)
    foreach (ItemType miMailboxItem in ((ArrayOfRealItemsType)firmtMessage.RootFolder.Item).Items)
    Console.WriteLine(miMailboxItem.Subject);
    else
    throw new Exception("error " + frFindItemResponse.ResponseMessages.Items[0].MessageText);
    } while (moreAvailible);
    The support people should be able to help you as long as you can get past the first level. The EWS Managed API has a RequestId header that gets submitted with requests
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/exchangedev/archive/2012/06/18/exchange-web-services-managed-api-1-2-1-now-released.aspx . In theory they should be able to take this and then from the Logs tell more information about why your request failed etc.

    I downloaded the Microsoft Autoruns package and ran it.  There are no programs in the LSA Providers tab, and Apple's Bonjour is the only program in the Winsock Providers tab.  I also did the "netsh winsock reset" and rebooted.  It didn't fix the problem.  Any more ideas?

    The problem was solved by Apple Technical Help. The process is as flollows:
    1. Open Safari
    2. Menu item Safari-Reset Safari - remove all website data - reset
    3. Now if you try to login on iTunes connect it will work.

  • Error :The catalog selected is currently unavailable:Please try again later

    Hi Experts,
    I am getting an error "The catalog selected is currently unavailable:Please try again later" when select a sold to party. I am not getting this every time. Only sometimes i am getting this error. When i delete the temperorary files from internet explorer sometimes this error is not coming. What might be the reason for this error??
    Thanks a lot in Advance.
    Regards,
    Lakshman.

    Hi
    Please let us know whether the error is thrown for all the sold to parties or for some.
    This error is caused because the catalog cache is flushed out . A quick solution would be to replicate the product catalog from the CRM system to TREX system.

  • Excel file save error: Someone else is working in file right now. Please try again later.

    When trying to save a modified Excel file, which has been opened from a network share, our users are receiving the following message:
    Someone else is working in "\\domain.com\users\username\Document.xls" right now. Please try again later.
    The clients that have been affected are Windows 7 clients, and the DFS share is being served from a Windows 2012 server. I have already confirmed that DFS replication has not been enabled, so it isn't trying to lock files for replication. I have also disabled
    any real-time scanning that is occurring on the client to make sure that the AV software wasn't locking the files. I did notice when viewing the list of Open Files from the server's Computer Management console that when a users experiences this issue the file
    appears to be opened 4 times. Three times it shows that it was opened in Read mode and the 4th instance shows an Open Mode of Write. Typically, a file which is working correctly should just show one instance with the Open Mode of Read+Write. None of these
    open instances are temporary files preceded with a ~.
    Any thoughts?

    Hi,
    Does the issue occur in other operation system? Which Office version are you using? Have you ever tried to test with word document, PPT file or txt file?
    Based on your description, the issue may be caused by the same file open multiple time in computer management on SQL server. The user probably has User Access Control (UAC) enabled on the machine and it is not letting him overwrite the existing
    copy of the file because she does not have it open in administrator mode. UAC will block overwriting (saving) the existing file without Administrative privileges and it will automatically open the save as dialog so you can save with a different name and
    if you click save without changing the name at the point, it tries to save as a new file over the existing file and it can't because the file is open.
    I recommend you check the user's permission (Which showed in Computer Management console) and end the Excel file instance in the task manager of the user's client.
    Also, we may try the workaround: Save it to local drive(like drive c:) and then copy it to DFS.
    Thanks

  • Solution to Error: "The item is being modified. Please try again later"

    I've been dogged by this message for months now, unable to update previously purchased apps to their newer version. After a bit of research this morning, I believe I've solved the issue. Hope this helps those out there with the same problem!
    Somewhere along the way, I changed my e-mail address AND my "apple ID" on iTunes to same. Since that time, any old apps that I had purchased and installed on the iPhone have received the error message when trying to update.
    What you need to do is to sign in to your "old" iTunes account (or possibly change the apple ID back to the old one) within iTunes, and then synch the iPhone again. Doing so will change your apple ID on the iPhone (temporarily) and allow you to update those old apps.
    When complete, don't forget to go back in and reset the login to your current one! Good luck!
