No permission to open file in XSAN captured wit FCP

Hi
we are working with xasn 1.1 and have captured 56 files in FinalCutPro we worked with all these files.
on the next day we do not have the permission to open 4 of these files. When you look at the files with ls -al you see that all file have 755.
We are working with a Xserve MetadataControler and 2 G5 FinalCut workstations, SANBox 5202, 2 Lan (one for Metadata only)
Does anybody have an idea?
Thanks for any support

See if this helps:

Permission To Open File Denied...Help

We were in my wife's account. Brought some pictures in using Image Capture, saved the pics to a folder to an internal SATA drive on my Mac Pro.
Logged out of her account, logged into mine, went to open pics and it said "You Do Not Have Permission to Open.....etc."
Chose "Get Info" on the entire photo folder, entered my administrator password, changed permissions to "Read and Write."
Restarted Mac.
Permissions still say "Read and Write" but I am still getting the same "You Do Not Have Permission to Open" dialog.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Tom

Giving permission to open files

I recently download a folder with a bunch of files in it and my mac is asking for permission to open each one individually. Is there a way to select them all and give permission to open them all or do I have to continue to click each one individually and click okay? I'm running mac os x lion if that information is needed. Thanks all for your help in advance!

Hi fubar2007,
I'm not sure I follow. Unless a PDF is password-protected, you should be able to open it directly in Adobe Acrobat or Reader--no need to sign in to open files. (If the PDF does have password security, you would need to get that password from whomever created the file.)
Now, if you have a subscription to an Acrobat.com online service, you can log in directly to https://cloud.acrobat.com with your Adobe ID or password. You can also sign in via Adobe Reader by clicking the blue Sign In button in the upper-right corner of the Tools panel.
Best,
Sara

Follow these instructions to uninstall MacKeeper. They have been tested with the most recent version of MacKeeper (v 2.8). Earlier versions than the one released in 2012 require more extensive work to uninstall all its components.
The effects of having actually used MacKeeper to do anything are a completely different matter. The fastest way to take an exquisitely designed and painstakingly engineered Mac and make it run like a steaming pile of dung is to install and use such ill-conceived "cleaning" or "security" products. This is just one example of a broad category of time- and money-wasters capable of causing damage that can only be rectified by reinstalling OS X, restoring from a backup, or completely erasing your system and rebuilding it from the ground up. Never install such junk on a Mac.
If you used MacKeeper to encrypt any files or folders, use MacKeeper to un-encrypt them first.
Quit the MacKeeper app if it is running.
Open your Applications folder: Using the Finder's Go menu, select Applications.
Drag the MacKeeper icon from your Applications folder (not the Dock) to the Trash.
You will be asked to authenticate (twice):
You do not need to provide a reason for uninstalling it:
Just click the Uninstall MacKeeper button. You will be asked to authenticate again.
After it uninstalls you may empty the Trash and restart your Mac. All that will remain is an inert log file that does nothing but occupy space on your hard disk.

MacBook disk full and no permission to open files after factory restore??

Ok, so my sister was giving me her laptop, so she backs up on her hard drive and we did the restore using the har drive and it worked fine, like it was before. But because it was suppose to become mine I wanted it restored as new. I can't remeber hhow how how I restored it the second time but it took a few hours But my sister decide to keep her laptop. Anyway, now her laptop won't let her download anything because it says 'disk space full' when she has well over 400gb left buti also see it says she has about 600,000 files. Also, her mbp won't let me open her documents or anything staying we don't have permission.
Can someone please help me, i was up til 5am trying to figure it out and nothing has helped. Her back up drive won't show when doing another factory restore and when I did another factory restore to reinstall OS X Yosemite the same thing is happening.
thank you for your time and help in advance!

Unknown file error when capturing in FCP 6

I capturing from a DVD, using AJA Kona card, component in. I can preview the video in Log & Capture, but when I try to Capture Now, I get an unknown file error and cannot capture. Just a regular DVD, analog capture. I've tried creating new projects. I save to an internal HD with over 300GB of available space. What am I missing?

If it is a data file drag and drop it on your desktop and open it.
If it is an encoded movie file can you play it? If so you can use the software I suggested to rip it from the DVD.
Give it a go.

Permission error opening FCPX event

We're running FCPX (10.0.9) on an iMac (27-inch, Late 2012), OS X 10.8.5 and when attempting to open an event we get the following error: Permission error opening [file name] CurrentVersion.fcpevent.
FCPX does not respond despite allowing an hour or more to load. We have done the following troubleshooting:
Deleted the following 2 Plist files under Go > Library > Preferences
com.apple.FinalCut.LSSharedFileList.plist
com.apple.FinalCut.plist
Deleted the Layouts folder under Go > Library > Application Support > Final Cut Pro
Used Disk Utility to repair the drive holding the file. --- No errors found
Ran DiskWarrior to repair any problems with the drive. --- No errors found
Created a new user on the computer to test FCPX and the event would still not open.
Has anyone encountered this? If so, can someone suggest a solution?

Hi
I had this problem and have just solved it.
I was logging in as a different user and the permissions on the folders containing the library - and of the library itself - were set to Read Only for all users except the admin user that created them.
To fix, highlight the library, and select "Get Info" from the Finder File menu (cmd-I).
At the bottom of the info box you can select read & write access for all users. You may have to click on the padlock in the corner and enter an admin name and password to allow the change.
Do this for any folders the library is in and the library itself.
This worked for me, hopefully it will work for you too.

ITunes won't open, I get this message: The iTunes Library .itl file is locked, on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this file.

iTunes won't open.
I get this message: The iTunes Library .itl file is locked, on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this file.

This may indicate a corrupt preference file with iTunes trying to open the wrong location. Try holding down shift as you launch iTunes then choose the correct file, normally <User's Music>\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl. See iTunes: How to open an alternate iTunes Library file or create a new one.

this may happen on external drives if:
The external drive was hotpluged (removed) without going the correct "eject" way
The iTunes library (database) got corrupted
First Aid for external drive
Close iTunes
Unmount (eject) external drive the right way.
Mount drive again
Go to Workplace -> right click external drive -> choose "clean up" This will force the filesystem to rescan the file structure of the drive and rebuilding the file system table and journaling file.
After the tool shows "done" (could last some time depending on size of drive) restart iTunes
If your iTunes library is on your internal drive, this may happen
The system was not shoot down correct, e.g. "pulled the plug"
The iTunes library (database) got corrupted
First Aid for internal hard drive
Close iTunes
Reboot system
Go to Workplace -> right click external drive -> choose "clean up"
After the tool shows "done" (could last some time depending on size of drive)
Reboot system, restart iTunes

I installed elements 12 on a Win 8.1 computer and moved all my photos from my old XP machine. I updated to elements 12.1. Now, many/most of my photos will not open because I do not have "permission" to open the files. How do I fix this so I can work with MY photos?

Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

When I try to open some pictures in finder with preview I get a message that I do not have permission to open it. It tells me to go to file - info. Don't know what to do from there.

When you do Get Info for a picture, what does it say in Sharing & Permissions for your username. The Privilege should be "Read & Write"

Error while collecting files in AE CS3 - You do not have permission to open this file (-54)

I've got a rather large project that I'm attempting to collect. 35,000+ files to collect (lots of image sequences as footage), totaling near 80GB. The collect process starts and copies files for a while, but inevitably errors out during the copy procedure with the error "You do not have permission to open this file" -- a different file each attempt.
I'd read some complaints of a similar error last year due to QT 7.4, but I'm on the current Quicktime (7.6.4).
Anyone seen this before? What can I do!? Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Imaginary Forces

Well, we're just a small shop, but since it usually falls upon me to administrate, here's a few general tips:
Hide all resources that are not meant to be accessed by certain people. This can be done easily by using different sub-nets on your network and defining access privileges. Write down the network MAC addresses and use a whitelist/ blacklist. A bit of work initially, but a lot safer than working with user names.
Forget about individual user privileges. At one point or another everyone will bump into situations where they cannot access stuff, but need it for their work. Simply ramp up all users to Power User status, but assign individual groups to them which only you can manage. That leaves it up to you to define who can access what, but without having to dig so deep that you always end up with individual adjustments. You merely add or remove users from groups (which is more practical for interns and freelancers, even)
Quota can do miracles for you. If a user only has x GB of storage available, he'll quickly learn to not create redundant data by copying files.
Prevent all local storage. Artists have a tendency to offline files at whim for experimentation and then forget about it. Give them a "garbage dump" directory on the server instead where they can store their private data and any non-persistent work files, but with quota. Use server-side desktops and user home directories, if possible, but unfortunately many programs cause problems with that (including Adobe's), so it's not always an option.
For each new project, create a pre-defined folder structure. We e.g. use number_clientname_worktype_year for the root, and inside have directories for compositing, 3D stuff, print, client data etc.. Define it so from the getgo, that specific structures like project directories for 3D programs with their sub-folders for textures etc. are in place, but users cannot create additional folders. When they are forced to use existing folders, they will be much more careful in naming their files.
Define versioning rules and naming conventions. Now "siginificant milestone" is a matter of view, but I at least try to create new version files for that. So if e.g in the morning I open up a comp project and change a few things in it that take more than 10 minutes to reproduce, this is significant and a new version is safed. I don't care much for simple things like adding effects - I can reproduce them in a wee in case of crashes or data loss - but complex masking, elaborate 3D modeling, dynamics simulations etc. qualify.
Of course back up every day, at least incrementally. If following the above rules, this can be as easy as copying the project folder to an external disk.
As for the rest - simply be hard-nosed. Your artists will whine and complain for a while, but they will get used to it and eventually see the wisdom in a regulated system. It's also up to you to brief them accordingly and remind them from time to time.

After Effects error: opening movie - you do not have permission to open this file (-54)

Hi all,
I'm new to after effects. I have just started receiving the following error every time I try to render my movie:
"After Effects error: opening movie - you do not have permission to open this file (-54)".
Yesterday morning, I was able to render movies, however, after I did Apple's latest update I've started receiving the following error. What is happening is that I'm trying to render a movie. It gets to a certain point in the movie (about 0;00;16;09) and then this error pops up. This morning I've tried to repair the permissions with disk utility, but that doesn't seem to have helped.
I've searched Google and the Adobe support forums with no luck. Please help.
Thanks in advance for you help,
William

Have been able to downgrade to QT 7.3 using Pacifist. Did NOT require re-install of OS.

Now that I am back to QT7.3, iTunes7.6 is now asking me to update QT to 7.4 in order to be able to view the new movie rental feature of the iTunes store... which sorta sheds some light on the no permission error. Now that iTunes is renting, not just selling, movies, QT is now all fussy about ownership and permissions. Just a guess.
