N95 - "Already in use" Error Message

Hi,
I've only had my N95 for a bit over a week now, and up until a couple of days ago, it was all working great! Then I went to read a text message on my phone and it wouldn't let me open the messages tab (either on the menu OR from standby mode). I can't even open it to check my settings! It keeps coming up with an error message saying "already in use!" I can no longer send OR receive messages. Since I am still able to send and receive phone calls, I assumed it was just the messages. But then I tried to use my camera. The same error message comes up! And for the music player, gallery, etc. I can still access the internet and my contacts, so I haven't lost the use of all the features only some, which I thought was really strange... I've tested my sim card in another phone and it works fine, so I tried my partner's sim card in my phone and it was giving the same error message. So it's definitely the phone... I have done all the different resets, and tried all the troubleshooting suggestions in my manual. Nothing works! Has anyone else come across this with their N95?? If so, please let me know, and also what happened to fix the problem? I can't be without my phone, so if anyone knows how to fix this problem without me having to have my phone sent back to Nokia, please help me! Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

Remember to back up your phone data first via pc suite,and if you do re-install the firmware make sure you have a full battery
PLEASE REMEMBER to read all instructions TWICE OVER as you CAN brick your N95 doing this.Message Edited by grayburn on 05-Nov-200711:44 AM
Thanks a million Grayburn - I'll definitely give that a go (very carefully!). Nothing else seems to be working... I'll post an update once I'm done...
Thanks again

"The backup disk image 'Volumes...sparsebundle' is already in use" error message

Since upgrading to Lion, I seem to be able to back up my MacBook over Wi-fi to an external hard drive attached to my Airport Extreme just fine. However, if Time Machine is in the middle of a backup and I interrupt it by closing my MacBook hence putting it to sleep, next time my MacBook attempts a backup I get the message "This backup disk image "/Volumes....Macbook.sparsebundle" is already in use. I've tried disconnecting all users from the hard drive in the Airport Utility, and then unplugging the hard drive and plugging it back in, and then it seems to backup fine, until I interrupt another backup, then the problem starts all over again.
I never had this problem before upgrading to Lion. Suggestions?

NateCook, I'm experiencing the exact same issue. I'd previously been enjoying how seamless Time Machine worked, wirelessly and automatically, to backup my MacBook Pro to a 2 TB drive attached to my Airport Extreme. I also liked that I had the flexibility to plug that drive directly to my Mac, via FW800 or USB 2.0, if I needed to. It would always work too, regardless of whether or not I interrupted a backup in progress. Now, with Lion, I'm constantly getting the same "This backup disk image "/Volumes....Macintosh.sparsebundle is already in use" error. I fix it by restarting the Airport Extreme but that's a pain in the butt to have to do all the time.
Can you verify whether or not the recent OS X 1.0.7.1 update helps fix this in any way? Or is the situation the same for you?
I'm loathe to "give in" and buy a Time Capsule to replace this setup, but I will if I have to... I want everything to work like it did before and I'm not willing to downgrade fom Lion back to Snow Leopard over this. I was hoping Apple would fix it properly, but since this isn't a "supported configuration" (even though we know full well it works just fine) I was afraid Apple wouldn't focus on this as a priority.
I'm also a bit fearful that the same issue will occur with a Time Capsule.. hmm... my hunch is I'll be finding out soon enough.

Any ideas please

Thanks for fast response.
I already tried C12, no luck. I did read C17, but that did not help either.
I agree that Apple should really spend a bit more time on ensuring this common problem is resolved more quickly
But where to do you sent this request to? Doesn't seem easy to find a person to send it to.
I dumped by corporate wIn-pc environment that I was forced to use for the past ...forever. Have been delighted with the Mac experience..... for 24 months..but these type of un-resolved matters with terse error messages reminds me of the bad old days.
I had the problem 2 weeks ago and solved it by "clicking about" after reading the forum Can't remember what i did though. V. V. V. frustrating when the Mac is a business tool. I don't want to be a mechanic, I want to be a driver.
Thanks again for your help

HT3275 Why would Backup suddenly stop and give me sparse bundle already in use error message?

The error message I keep getting is: The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data/Brenda Glim’s MacBook Pro.sparsebundle” is already in use. Help!

Because you are running ML and that is one of its bugs.
Even Lion can do it.
Wireless makes it worse.
Reboot the TC.. or reboot the network and it should go away.

HT201514 "sparsebundle in use" error message

I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and ever since, have been denied access to my Time Machine/Time Capsule backup - receiving the error message: The backup disk image “/Volumes/xxxxxxxx's Time Cap/xxxxxxx MacBook Pro.sparsebundle” is already in use.
Any suggestions????

I have had the same issue.
Nothing on Pondini's C17 has worked for me.
Toggling the "enable file sharing" box and rebooting CPU & Time Capsule worked...for about 2-3 days. Then I get the same error. I gave been putting up with this for over a month. I have been to just about every forum that relates to the "sparsebundle already in use" error and no fix has worked for more than 48-72 hours.
Lion and Mt. Lion correlate with a lot of new issues for me. Getting desperate for some help.

Sun would like your help with the "System Name Already In Use" error

A couple of users have reported getting an erroneous "System Name Already in Use" error when re-registering a system after a fresh Solaris re-install. We'd like your help in tracking down this problem.
The scenario is this:
* Install Solaris 10 and register with updatemanager,
* Wipe out the installation and re-install Solaris.
* re-register with updatemanager.
The system erroneously reports that the system name is already in use. It is supposed to detect a duplicate registration of the same system.
We have not been able to reproduce this error in our lab.
If this has happened to you, would you let us know at [email protected]?
Here are the things that we would like to ask of you:
* If you run "updatemanager -debug" if will create a log file /tmp/basicreg<timestamp>.log.
* Details on the exact hardware you have (make/model/configuration).
* Details on the steps you took to get to the bad state. REALLY detailed!
Thanks!
Based on what we know now, we believe you can work around the issue by either:
* Changing the host name and re-registering.
* Creating a different user account and registering the host to that account.
Some previously-posted workarounds are known NOT to work:
* Wait 24 hours and try again.
* Do some "ccr" incantations and try again.

Hi,
Can you drop me an email as i am a sun employee and i will be able to check if the swup frontline team have received any support cases on this issue and then we can work with you directly to resolve the issue.

10.6.8 Server w/ 10.9.2 clients "Backup disk is already in use" error

I have an Xserve running 10.6.8 serving as a Time Machine destination for the office. All of the clients are running newer OSes, mostly 10.9.2. Since the 10.9.2 update, my clients frequently receive the "Backup disk is already in use" error when they attempt to backup. Looking at Server Admin, I can see that clients reporting the error have an idled AFP session. Disconnecting the session in Server Admin will fix the issue for a day or two. I've tried using the "disconnect idle users after x interval" option for AFP with no luck. Has anyone else been experiencing this issue?

I am also having the same issue! If I kill off the disabled/sleep connection, backups work.

InD blocking Ps to save a file / Could not save * because the file is already in use error

Many users have reported a Photoshop Could not save * because the file is already in use error in many different circumstances.
I place raw jpgs in InDesign document, then open them in Photoshop via Edit original order to adjust them. On random occasions Ps gives me that annoying error. So i found a little trick to avoid saving that image under a different name and relinking it plus reloading Ps since the error repeats on other pictures to.
All you have to do is: when Ps gives error, (Cmd-Tab) switch to InD, directly select the worked jpg in image frame (one that you try to save in Ps) and simply move it left-right (or move it and Undo). Now you can save it without problem.

JPEG is a "lossy" compression format. Every time you save as jpeg you recompress and throw away a little more information. In addition, jpeg does not support transparency or layers, both very useful features for woring with images. For example, you can add an adjustment layer in Photoshop to do your adjustments non-destructively for may of the things that you can do using Image > Adjustments... which will change your pixel data permanently. Throw away an adjustment layer and you image data is untouched. Also, ID allows you to place a layered image and control layer visibility from within ID, making it possible to multi-purpose a single file by showing or hiding various layers.

Unsupported black in use error message for laserjet p2055

Receiving "unsupported black in use" error message for laserjet p2055. I replace the cartridge with a new one and the same message appears. Any suggestions how to resolve this issue?

Hi,
Does it become active if you go to System Preferences > Accounts and Click on the current Account Pic and attempt to take a Pic ? (you do not have to Set it as the Pic)
Go to System Preferences > Accounts
Click on Your Account (in the list on the Left)
The Right hand side will now show some options.
Clicking the current Pic will give you access to Edit Pic
One of the Options then is to take a Snapshot.
Take a Snap Shot but you do not have to "Set" the Pic.
This process will invoke VDCAssistant.
Explain further about the PRAM Reset please.
You should shut down the computer (Rather than trying to catch the Restart)
You should then Start the Computer holding down the AppleALT+PR keys and keep holding them until you hear three Start Up0 Bongs (Chimes)
This deletes some settings such as System Preferences Settings for the Volume (Sound) and Date and Time that may need resetting afterwards. (Others may also be effected such as Screen Saver)
On Spotlight.
This does not look or report on certain Folders.
At the Hard Drive Level this is Library and Syatem
In your Home Folder (Little House icon) it will not look in your Library.

Time Machine backups to OS X Server 10.8 fail with "The backup disk image "Volumes/Backup6/macname.sparsebundle" is already in use" Error

Connecting about 100 Macs running Mavericks and about half of them are getting "The backup disk image "Volumes/Backup6/macname.sparsebundle" is already in use" error.
Screenshot -
https://www.evernote.com/shard/s87/sh/d03288e2-4ad7-4466-957b-2b9b4fcdea55/71afa 07540fd89e5f9a7eabfc96b4f1e
This was happening with our 10.8 environment and when we migrated to Mavericks, I rebuilt the OS X MacMini Server. Seems worse now with 10.9
Most discussions advise in restarting TimeCapsule or network device. However restarting OS X Server everyday is not a solution. Any advice in resolving this issue is appreciated.
Thanks! Corbin

I also had to restart the server and client after applying the "fix" I described above. Basically, no user should have multiple, simultaneous file sharing sessions on the server. But even clearing the user sessions does not resolve the problem beyond the next Time Machine backup, so I also tried disabling and enabling file sharing, but the problem also returns after doing this. Only restarting both the client and server after clearing the sessions has worked for me when I have this problem. The problem may return much later, but this work aroudn definitely works as a temporary solution.
Next time I encounter this problem I will try restarting just the server or just the client, because it is unlikely that the problem exists due to something on both systems. Server 3.x is definitely not as stable as it should be, but for my use, it is getting the job done.

E52 Message Editor: Already in use (error)

Hi guys!
Has anyone else experienced this message editor error in the E52?
I had this even before the FW update and even with the current FW 022. It still doesnt solve it. Whenever i try to reply to someone, it sometimes gives me a message box with an error message stating: message editor: already in use. I have tried to recreate the scenario but couldn't. i have also tried looking for patterns whenever it occurs but i haven't found one.
If anybody experienced this error too, was yours resolved after the FW update? Or is there anything that I can do to resolve it? It's really annoying. I bought this so i can make calls and send messages, other features come in second -- basic features should at least have been perfected.
To all those who will share their inputs, i will be really grateful. Thanks!

hi,
plz check whether the email application is running in the background. in the E52, i've noticed that until u explicitly exit the application by clicking 'exit', the application is left running in the background. it might be the cause since the email and text message application uses the same message editor.
hope this helps.

Windows Server 2012 Used: Error Message from Windows 7 PC: Remote session was disconnected because there are no remote desktop license servers available to provide a license. Please contact the server administrator.

We are using Windows Server 2012 Standard installed in VMWare / Virtual machine and to access this we use vSphere client and Remote Desktop Connection / service was already enabled and was working fine with User PCs / laptops remote desktop into the server
2012, until it gave an error message of: Remote session was disconnected because there are no remote desktop license servers available to provide a license. Please contact the server administrator. whilst logging into the server.
We DON'T use Active Directory nor and we don't use domain and not looking to use it any-time soon.
I checked the RD Licensing Diagnoser and it says the grace period has expired and the licensing mode for the remote desktop session host server is not configured. I have checked the Remote Desktop Gateway has been stopped and I tried to start it and it
resumed to stop, here I assume its where the licensing part comes in to re-enabled this.
I have been trying to follow these articles online: http://ryanmangansitblog.com/2013/03/27/deploying-remote-desktop-gateway-rds-2012/ and http://www.concurrency.com/blog/rds8-add-a-licensing-server-2/#Install the overview part that I cannot get into,
because I think we have to be is AD DS for this which we don't. Is there a way around this for non domain / just standalone set-up? Is it a must / requirement we need to be in a domain in order for Remote Desktop Connection to work?
Also, we have a Windows Server 2012 RDS CALs - 10 (software and licence key), will the licence key work for the Windows 2012 Server Standard? We do not want to install the other Server mentioned which comes with CAL / licence key as its time consuming
to reinstall other programs. I have installed Server role service of Remote Desktop Licencing and automatically installed other associated services needed. in the RD Licencing Manager, the Server had a red cross and I "Activate Server"
where I followed: http://www.concurrency.com/blog/rds8-add-a-licensing-server-2/#Install in Install Licences section and I have used the licence key of CAL - 10 mentioned above; it stated I have successfully completed the install licences wizard and displayed:
10 Windows Server 2012 - RDS Per User CAL installed, and in the RD Licensing Manager the server turned into a green tick and added the licence.
I then tested the Remote desktop connection from my PC and the same error message was there and checked the RD Licensing Diagnoser and the same error messages was there. I haven't restart the services of Remote Gateway / the server itself; do I really
need to reboot server?
Any advice / guidance would be very much appreciated and this is a urgent matter.
Thank you for your time.

Mail for Exchange already in use error when sendin...

We have a number of Nokia E50-1 on Vodafone network which we are using Mail for Exchange 2.5.3 (mfe) to sync emails with a microsoft Small Business Server 2003 (SBS2003). When we try to reply or send a new email from the E50 we get the error "Mail for Exchange: Already in use". This happens even if the sync is set to manual and email is set to send with next sync. Very ocassionally a message will go if we keep retrying.
Does anyone know how to resolve this?

hi all,
great forums, hopefully someone has some more info on this, as i am getting the same issue.
I had mail for exchange working with my e71 no worries and then i added my home TPG account. the TPG account would not work for some reason, not that it overtly worried me, but then when i tried sending mail through exchange (either reply or new mail) i get the error message 'Mail for exchange: already in use'
I have removed the TPG account, rebooted the thing several times, all sorts of stuff - nothing seems to work. it is still syncing and i am receiving email, i just can't send...!!
any troubleshooting tips or further info would be greatly appreciated
