Users are facing issue on shared excel file. we have an excel shared in NAS where multiple users are editing in a single time. some times, users are getting error message "the file is locked, Try the command again later". But users never reported
any issue in Windows XP + Office 2007 package. Its reported only for users who are in Windows 7+ MS Office 2013 package.

Hi,
According to your description, this error was pop-up with Windows 7 & Office 2013 environment, please try the following methods and check if they are helpful:
1. Install the Windows 7 SP1 if you have not installed.
2. Turn off the Preview Pane, Details Pane and pop ups that show information about file and desktop items.
In a Windows Explorer window, do the following:
Right click on the Start Button.
Click 'Open Windows Explorer'.
At the top left click Organize > Layout 
Uncheck Details Pane and Preview Pane.
On a Windows menu, click on Tools > Folder Options.  In the box that opens up, click on the View tab.  Scroll down the list to
“Show pop-up description for folder and desktop items” and clear the checkbox and then click OK. 
In Excel:
Click File > Open
Click Organize > Layout
Uncheck 'Details Pane' and 'Preview Pane'
3. Add the registry key:

  • This file is locked or in Use.  Would you like to open a copy of it?

    I use AppleWorks more than anything else, and understand the work arounds. Here is the problem, everytime I open a previous file I get this message, "This file is locked or in Use. Would you like to open a copy of it?" I copied applications from a previous iMac. When I try to open copy of the document, I get the above message. When I try the save command I can't, even a save as doesn't work either. Any thoughts or ideas for a resolution.

    I have found that this problem is due to OS X's ownership & permissions. When you create & save a document in AppleWorks in OS X the file is owned by you & no one else can make changes without your permission. If you don't have the same account name as on the other Mac, you'll need to change the permissions. Click on the file to select it, then choose "Get Info" from the File menu. Now click on the triangle next to "Ownership & Permissions" & change Group & Others permissions to "Read & Write."
    The save problem may be solved by deleting the AppleWorks preferences.

  • When creating PDF I get message "This file was saved to the Temporary Internet  Files Folder"

    about 80% of the time when I am creating a PDF Document using the Print to Adobe function I get the following message:
    "For your computers security, this file was saved to the Temporary Internet Files folder"
    "Do you want to open this folder?"
    It doesn't matter if I say yes I want to open the folder or not I can never locate the file.

    Thank you for your help. I have looked everywhere and I'm lost.

    You can get the same results (as turning protected mode off) by:
    (presuming you have an icon for Internet Explorer on your desktop or taskbar) -- right click the icon and pick "Run as administrator"
    I've got the same problem printing to pdf (Acrobat v8; problem's only in IE7) on a Dell Optiplex/Vista Business desktop machine (though not my T61/Vista Ultimate Thinkpad laptop) and the above resolves the issue for my desktop machine. Certainly not a fix but perhaps a clue to Adobe developers, on the [slim?] chance they read these posts.

    In a mixed client environment, mostly Outlook 2010 & 2013 clients. Only Outlook 2013 clients (about only 4 mailboxes) are receiving this error immediately after sending an email. My temp band-aid at the
    moment is to: from the client, go into the "address book" & select a different address book like "Contacts" & then select the address again & select the Global Address List, which is the default. (it will have the users email
    + at the beginning of the field, it reads, Global Address List - (email of the user), then I close Outlook & open it back up, & the problem is solved. But on some mailboxes, not all, the issue comes back. From my research, I know that our individual
    mailboxes do not send out over 500 emails in one day. Most users will send out maybe 20 or 30 in one day, so I don't think it's that. 
    But I'm not sure if this is related, but I have noticed that the log files for the Exchange 2010 seems to only hold logs with date stamps of only a couple of days. It used to hold log files indefinitely until they were archived, deleted, etc. So, this is
    a new, unusual issue I have seen as well. 
    We have 2 .edb's, one active: 78 GB's and one disabled at 7 GB's. Exchange 2010 is running on Windows Server 2008 r2, Enterprise Ed. We have had Exchange 2010 running now for about almost 2 years now and this is the first time this particular issue has come
    up.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    You can refer to the following steps to rebuild an Offline Address Book.
    1. Open EMS. Update OAB using the Update-OfflineAddressbook "offline address book" cmdlet. Restart Background Intelligent Transfer Service on the Mailbox server.
    2. Initiate OAB replication from mail box server to CAS server. Execute for each CAS server using the Update-FileDistributionService "CASServerName" cmdlet.
    3. Start Outlook and download OAB.

    All three of these users are in her address book, and are all in her office residing on the same Office 365 domain account.
    I have tried the troubleshooting methods outlined in this article, but they did not resolve the issue: http://theitbros.com/office-365-this-message-could-not-be-sent-try-sending-the-message-again-later/
    - This entailed manually downloading/updating  the address book via 'Send/Receive --> Download Address Book...'. The second method in that article had me rename/move/delete the Address Book files stored on the local machine, and then allow them to
    repopulate when you open Outlook again. This also did not resolve my issue.
    Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

    That's the kind of message you will see when trying to send on behalf of/send as another user, when you don't have the necessary permissions added. Or you are using the wrong send method, or using an outdated name cache entry, or the OAB is outdated.

  • This field contains duplicate values. Remove all duplicate values and try the operation again.

    Greetings Everyone,
    I am getting the follow up errors: "This field contains duplicate values. Remove all duplicate values and try the operation again."
    when I tried to make the field "Claim Number" from the list in site collection library. See the screen below:
    1- I selected on the "List" and I clicked on the list name
    "Claim Tracking Report"
    2- After I clicked on the list name then I went to the ribbon and selected list setting to choose Enforce Unique for the Field Column
    "Claim Number"
    3- Then I went down and selected
    "Yes" to Enforced the Unique for the Field Column "Claim Number".
    4- Then after I clicked "Yes" I got the error
    "Sorry, something went wrong. This field contains duplicate values. Remove all duplicate values and try the operation again."  But I don't have any duplicates values Items, because I had them removed before I tried
    to Enforce the field column values to Unique. Can someone help or provide me a suggestions on how I can solve this issue please. Thank you
    FYI: I am using a Nintex Workflow

    Hope this is a list, how many total items are there?
    Please try to open this list as access(link in IE) and run this query in access
    SELECT Claim.[Claim Number], Count(*) AS Expr1
    FROM Claim
    GROUP BY Claim.[Claim Number]
    HAVING (((Count(*))>1));
    Hope it will show something! if this does not show you dups then better to create a separate list and migrate items after configuring unique column.
    Please 'propose as answer' if it helped you, also 'vote helpful' if you like this reply.

    It all depends on the definition of "factory unlocked". If the phone was purchased directly from Apple and the receipt says "Unlocked" then updating or restoring it will leave it unlocked (Apple never uses the term "factory unlocked" as there is no such thing; phones are unlocked at activation time). Similarly, if it had been locked to a carrier and the carrier authorized it to be unlocked, and you went through the unlocking steps they provided, it is permanently unlocked.
    Unfortunately, a lot of the phones sold as "factory unlocked" were actually unlocked by hacking in the "factory" in the basement of some shop somewhere. These phones at best will become locked to the original carrier if restored, and in the worst case will be permanently disabled if restored.
