How do you disable "FILE IN USE" pop-ups so you can actually edit and delete PDFs?!

Can someone please help me with this query:
How do you disable "FILE IN USE" pop-ups so you can actually edit and delete PDFs?!
I continue to have a pop saying that either the file in open somewhere in the serve- which it is not- and I cannot delete a particular pdf or edit it.
It's incredibly frustrating and in the end I end up having four files with different names because it won't let me edit the original file!!!!

Hi Amila1,
Are the pdfs stored on a network location?
If so is the Preview pane turned ON?
Please check the doc: http://kb.globalscape.com/KnowledgebaseArticle10862.aspx

  • My MacBook Pro HD Storage Capacity is getting full with majority of usage classified as Other (126.77GB). What is included as Other and how can I edit and delete unnecessary content?

    The Storage capacity on my MacBook Pro (Mid 2010, Version 10.10, 4 GB Memory) is getting full. It appears I only have 29.04 GB free of 319.21 GB. The majority of usage is classified as "Other" (126.77 GB) and "Movies" (106.05 GB).  I would like to edit and delete some of the Other content, but what is included in this category? How do I know what is safe to delete? I don't have many documents created. I have saved and filed content from internet sites... do these type of files use a lot of storage capacity (mostly recipes)?
    I have very few Apps and have been updating all software regularly.  Mose recent update was Yosemite.

  • How can I edit and delete IOS 7 IPAD safari favorites?

    In IOS7/Ad safari, how can I edit or delete safari favorites?
    Thanks!
    Alan

    Thank you so much!   This solved my problem.
    I wish Apple made this sort of thing more accessible in its documentation somewhere.   I Google'd extensively but was unable to find anything relevant.
    Thanks much again!
    Alan
    P.S. -- I assume there's no way to delete multiple bookmarks/favorites simultaneously (I did it one at a time)...

  • How can I edit and delete photos from my albums? I can't find a way to delete old photos...

    Can anyone help me delete photos? There are old blurry and duplicate photos that we are unable to delete...

    If photos were synced from your computer then they can't be deleted directly on the iPad, you will need to remove/de-select them from where you synced it from on your computer and re-sync.

    A MacBook will use Time Machine to make local backups so that when connected to an external drive it will backup a lot faster.
    to disable this, you must use a command under terminal.
    to locate terminal, do a search for it under spotlight (the magnifying glass on the top right corner), should be the first hit.
    once under terminal, type the following text exactly:
    sudo tmutil disablelocal
    hit enter.
    you will be asked to input your password, if you do not have a password, you will have to create one before performing this command. after entering your password, hit enter again and close terminal.
    in a few minutes the space taken up by time machine should be cleared.

  • "File in use" pop up while trying to open excel files

    Hi,
    We are regularly experiencing difficulties accessing excel documents residing in our Sharepoint site collection that are shared by numerous members of the department for updating.
    We are aware of the 10 minute rule for excel documents, where if you try to open a document that has been saved by another member previously, you must give 10 mins before the system releases the lock.
    Recently several occurrences have stopped members from being able to open excel documents, where the document has been updated and saved by member A and closed. Then member B tries to open document well past 10 mins after member A had closed the document,
    only to receive the 'File in use' pop up and not able to open the document in edit mode.
    Any suggestions please?
    Thank you.

  • How to find the File name using the FTP Adapter

    hi all,
    how to find the File name using the FTP Adapter with BPEL.
    Regards

    Found the solution for this.
    First In the mediator's routing rule use assign property $in.property.jca.file.FileName to $out.property.jca.file.FileName
    In the BPEL's receive activity go to the properties tab and get the property to a BPEL variable. That should do it.
    Thanks for the posts

  • How to import WMV file for use in adobe programs, especially After Effects and/or Premier?

    How to import WMV file for use in adobe programs, especially After Effects and/or Premier?

    I have the latest adobe creative cloud and i'm using Mac 10.8.2
    My client gave me a wmv file that she wants some people blurred out in the background but when I go to import the media, it's greyed out. I'm assuming that After Effects will be the best solution for this, but maybe there is another way.
    I can purchase a video converter and convert it to .mov but that costs extra money that I don't want to spend just to do this one project.

    You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:

    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:

    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework

    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.

    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that this Internet criminal has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
