Missing older files; odd error message

Some old files from iTunes are missing. An error message pops up occasionally, saying, "iTunes library cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."  For security, I normally run my pc on a "standard" account and switch to an administrator account when installing, cleaning, etc. Surely iTunes is not configured so as to require only pc administators to download material? How to resolve this problem?

There you are, Pages 5 can be relied on to not be relied on.
Not much comfort for your previous file though.

  • Odd error message - Can't save new Pages docs

    I use Pages a lot and know it pretty well. But today I got an odd error message I have never seen. It is stopping me from using Pages.
    Today, when I attempted to create a new Pages document and save it to a folder in my Documents folder (or to my Desktop), I get an instant error message saying, "The file ‘FileName.pages' doesn’t exist." (see below).  In effect, Pages will not allow me to save a new file. I can open older Pages files, edit them and save them.  I just cannot create a new file and save it. I have restarted Pages and my computer multiple times with no effect on this message.
    Anyone dealt with this before?

  • Ipod not recognized, getting odd error message

    I've seen this posted a few times, but without any hints as to how to fix the problem.
    I have a 4G 20GB iPod, just over a year old (meaning, no warranty), that has worked fine until this morning. I turned it on, and all of a sudden, it kept skipping through all of my songs, and wouldn't respond to the pause, play, etc. buttons.
    I attached it to my computer via FireWire, and I keep getting this odd error message: "You have inserted a device that has no volumes that OSX can recognize" It asks me if I want to ignore, initialize, or eject the disc. I've been having it ignore it, or eject it (staying far away from initialization). After I ejected it, I noticed that all the songs on my iPod are now missing.
    I reset the iPod, which didn't do much, and now I can't restore it, because neither the computer or iTunes recognizes my iPod. It shows up in Disk Utility, but I'm not entirely sure how to proceed.
    What happened to my iPod? I can't seem to find anything in the Apple support pages that seems similar to my situation. Any suggestions on how to get the thing to work again?
    Edit: I am using iTunes version 4.9; I have not updated to 5.0

    This is the most frustrating tech trouble!
    The same thing has happened to my iPod. It worked fine, then one day I plug it in and it says "Disc inserted is unreadable by this computer". As far as I remember, I didnt' update anything, make any changes, or adjust any settings to any of my hardware. SO WHAT HAPPENED?? And now I can't restore or doctor the iPod hardware bc my computer won't recognize it as actual hardware...
    pleeeeease help, if anyone has a way to fix this.
    The weirdest part, is that when I look at the information of the "unreadable hardware" it describes it with all the information, like how many gigs are available, how much space is used up, latest updates etc. So it can transfer information, but it pretends its unreadable? i dont understand.

  • Odd error message when attempting installation of iTunes 8

    When I try to install the iTunes 8 (the most recent version), I get an odd error message and am unable to successfully complete the installation. This is the message:
    Could not access network location
    %USERPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\
    This message is then followed by Retry or Cancel; Retry has not worked at all with the same error message popping up. There is no error number that I can see. After I finally hit cancel out of frustration, this message shows up:
    The installation of QuickTime did not complete successfully. iTunes requires QuickTime.
    I think that the first message occurs during the program's attempt to do QuickTime before the iTunes. I tried downloading and upgrading QuickTime separately, but that was also unsuccessful. I do now have an earlier version of QuickTime on my computer, but that is only because I recently added some software (Rosetta Stone to be exact) that requires the 5.0 version and downloads it automatically. I also have tried the troubleshooting tips on the Apple site.
    My computer is a Dell, with Windows XP Home Edition. I do have the second Service Pack from Microsoft, and should have all of the latest updates. Please help! I'm getting really frustrated with my computer and have no idea on what to do next.

    When you get a message about not being able to access a network location you usually need the Microsoft installer cleanup utility.
    Here is a method:
    Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program. The installer doesn't give any message to confirm the installation.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
    (To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install)
    Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
    XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Vista
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    *If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
    When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
    Restart your PC.
    Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
    Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
    If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
    restart your PC
    Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
    If it does, install iTunes.

  • Odd error message

    I am getting an odd error message with iTunes:
    +The iTunes library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation.+
    Any ideas why I am getting this message. My iPod never had problems before, and I am the only one who uses the computer.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I too have seen this error message now and again. (Right now as a matter of fact).
    Doesn't appear to have any adverse affects on my music library but with over 8,000 songs I may never notice the problems.
    Concerned...

  • N95 - odd error message

    I have an N95 with Ver 20.0.015, and in the last day or so I have been getting an odd error message on start up - can someone suggest what is going on?
    Very soon after turning on, the system says Installing... and then a message come up saying 'Untrusted software found on memory. To install, go to Application Manager'
    I have looked at Appl Mgr, and there is an entry 'e14a45b8.sis' that says Not Installed, which is, I suspect, the guilty party.
    Is this likely to be the problem, and does anyone know why I should not Remove this?

    Hi jcaswell
    v20.0.015 seems more intolerant of older applications than previous versions. In my case there was an eight numeral .sis on my memory card which was "Not installed" and produced this message at every start-up. Fortunately 'Googling" established that this was early Nokia "Podcasting" application which as it is now part of the firmware, could safely be deleted; now I no longer get this message on start-up. In Application Manager if you click on this application > options, you should be able to get more information about it's identity.
    Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

    I just used stellar phoenix mac data recovery and it seemed to work but now my files won't open.  Even though they are "jpeg, mov" files, the error message is  "could not be opened". The movie's file format isn't recognized. "  Any help or are they corrupted?

    Sounds to me like the file is probably corrupt. If you had hard drive corruption or damage, that could easily result in recovered files not being fully intact. If you were trying to recover accidentally deleted files, it's possible they might have been partially overwritten before recovering. There are never any guarantees with file recovery.
    Without more information on the circumstances that led you to try recovery, it's hard to give advice on what to try from here. You could always try another file recovery tool, like Data Rescue 3. Just be sure you're taking appropriate precautions when doing recovery. See Recovering deleted files.

  • Recieving an odd error message...

    For the past few days, i have been running into an odd error message whenever i try to update my iPod through iTunes.
    The message is "Attempting to copy to disk "Harout's(my name) IP failed. The disk could not be read from or written too."
    This always happens during the update for my iPod. It gets to about 10% updated then pulls this message out. I've tried uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling it, with the newest version, got the newest iPod updater, and even restored my iPod and tried it again and nothing has helped.
    Do you guys have any idea on what i can do?

  • Wrong CAP file version error message

    Thank you in advance.

    I'm not understanding if your cap file is in "b\bin\FVSCardPkg\javacard\", then why are you loading "D:/MyCardPkg.cap"?
    The issue isn't with your off card application, but the cap file version. Look at the cap file components in JCVM specification. I believe it's the Header component. The major, minor should match your card but not greater. In other words, your can't load a 2.2 on a 2.1 card, but a 2.1 can load on a 2.2

  • Ca'nt ftp longer (i.e. 4 minutes) flv or f4v files (get error message "waiting for server")  I

    when I ftp(i.e. "put" or "upload) short flv or f4v files using dreamweaver cs4 the files upload easily and quickly. However, when I try to ftp ("put" or "upload" ) longer (i.e. 4 minutes or longer) flv or f4v files it goes through the ftp process (seeing it in background activity screen) but at the end I always get a message "waiting on server" and the longer files don't get onto hosting server.  Is there a setting I need to change or other method I need to use).  I have worked with my hosting support tech person but we could not solve this problem.

    I'd suggest that you try using a dedicated FTP program like Filezilla or SmartFTP.
    http://filezilla-project.org/
    Those programs give you much more feedback on what's happening as you attempt to upload files, including error messages, etc.
    There is really no difference between uploading large files and small files, the process on the server is exactly the same..UNLESS there are limits to file size or video duration set by your host. So dispite the fact that you have worked with your host support, I'd still say that the problem is server side or being limited by your Internet service provider... unless the video files you are attempting to upload are corrupted.
    You didn't say if any portion of the larger video files were uploaded...and FTP program will show you whether or not ANY of the file was uploaded and at what point it stopped. You also didn't mention how large the video files where.... sort of where the "tipping point" is in file size (video duration of course is no measure of file size).
    Just to reassure you, the file size of a video file will have no bearing on your ability to FTP unless your host or ISP is limiting you in some way.
    I regularly Live stream events and also record them. An 8 hr event will produce roughly 1.5GB of compressed video. I use SmartFTP, with a reputable host and can upload the entire set of 1.5GB of video files (each about 50MB) over a 1000kbps upload connection without problem. Recently during a movie production project, we uploaded a number of single video file which each where over 1GB a piece.
    So there is really no problem uploading video files unless there are restriction on you account from the host or the ISP.

  • Odd error message given when saving a file to a secondary drive.

    I am running Photoshop CS3 Extended on a Windows XP Pro, with SP2 installed. The computer has two hard drives installed. On all previous versions of Photoshop I've been able to save a file to my 2nd hard drive easily by typing "D:\image.jpg"
    When I try to do the same in Photoshop CS3 I get an error message that says "could not save as d:\d:\image.jpg because the file name was invalid"
    So I have to hit SHIFT+CTRL+S then type "d:\" and then type a file name, making it a 2 step procedure to save a file now. If I don't follow this procedure, and just type the filename it saves the file on drive C:\ in a subdirectory.
    Obviously it's a path error, but I've never had a problem with a straight out command "D:\image.jpg" on previous versions and looking at the Preferences options or doing a search for this error didn't shed any light on this issue. Thanks for any feedback on this problem.

    i "could not save as d:\d:\image.jpg because the file name was invalid"
    It seems that the "explorer" function is already set to drive D:\, as evidenced by the error message. If the file came from D:\, or you have been saving to D:\, then you will not type "D:\" into the file name, as both the ":" and the "\" are forbidden characters.
    As a test, Open a file from C:\, then Save to C:\. Now, Do a Save_As and try typing "d:\image.jpg." It should do this, without the error message.
    Just a note: you may have simplified the path for your post, but otherwise, it's not a good practice to save any file into the root of a drive - always do a folder. If this was for done as an example only, then ignore my caveat.

  • How do I password protect a pdf file - getting error messages?

    I'm trying to protect a pdf file (i.e. a tax return printed to PDF) with password to open and password to modify. However I'm getting an error message in a pop up window saying..."The file may be read-only, or another user may have it open. Please save document with a different name, or in a different folder." I'm using WIN 8.1. and I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro XI (student / teacher version). This is a standalone PC so I can't imaging someone else is using this file. Also I've tried renaming and saving to a different folder (from the folder the original file is saved). I've also looked at properties of the PDF file and its not tagged as read only. Please advise if I'm missing something. Thanks for your help.

    Thanks for responding...I'm getting the same message that I got at first..."The file may be read-only, or another user may have it open. Please save document with a different name, or in a different folder."
    The next day I emailed the file to my work PC and encrypted it with no problems. I have WIN 7 and am using Acrobat 8.0 there. So the problem seems to be with my new PC here at home (i.e. WIN 8.1 and Acrobat XI). Frustrating. I'm betting its some obscure setting in WIN or Acrobat, that is way over my head. Please let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks again.

  • I Can't Send Mail, Odd Error Message

    I can't send any mail, hopefully this is an easy fix that I'm missing. I checked to make sure my outgoing mail settings were correct. I've only just recently set everything up, and it was working fine. I sent a few emails with files attached to my sister, and I received this error message before I could send all of the files:
    "This message could not be delivered and will remain in your Outbox until it can be delivered.
    The sender address [insert address here] was rejected by the server"
    Any ideas? I appreciate any help one might be able to give.

    Could you check if outgoing mail server is proper set, including authorization?
