Numbers file on the Desktop that does not exist??

I have a newly set up MacBook Pro with Lion 10.7.2.  I have created a numbers file that is NOT saved on the Desktop.  I have an icon of that file on the Desktop and can select it but the file doesn't exist.  I have navigated to the folder as su in Terminal and the file doesn't exist. The icon shows on the Desktop though.
The numbers document you can see above the selected is the numbers document that I saved after I had seen what I have described above.  When I saved it there was no prompt to overwrite the file because.........it doesn't exist!!
Ideas anyone??

I may be making a mistake by even mentioning this, but this may be a rare case for enabling the Root User to delete the file if that is what you want to do. In almost every case, it's not a good idea to tell people to enable Root. So other more experienced users may have other suggestions. But if you log in as Root, try to delete the file, then log back out of Root, you should be OK.   Carefully read here first about Enabling Root.

  • HT5621 My ipad recognizes and old email address for icloud.  When I go to change the address it sends me an email verification email that says click the link THAT DOES NOT EXIST IN THE EMAIL!!   How do I get this changed?

    I cannot get my icloud email address changed, but I no longer have that email address.  So it is sending an email to an address that no longer exists, yet I cannot get it to change to my current email address.  WHen I walk through the process, it sends me an "verificaiton email" that DOES NOT have the link in it to verify.  UGH

    Welcome to the Apple community TMOZINGO.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • IMovie searching for files for project that does not exist...

    Whenever I fire up iMovie 09 on Lion, it spins, and then tells me it can't find a video file for a project that does not exist. That is, it says 'File xxx.mov from project 'Movie 1 cannot be found - without this file the movie cannot be played.' The project is one I deleted a long time ago, and does not appear in the project list. How can I force iMovie to forget about this?
    Thanks!
    PS the specific error is 'Searching for movie data in file "New Project 1 - Large.m4v". The only button is "Stop". so I press that, then a new dialogue box saying 'The movie file 'New Project Large.m4v" cannot be found. Without this file, the movie cannot play properly." It has cancel and search buttons. Obviously, searching doesn't help - it was deleted a long time ago. Cancelling makes it go away until iMovie is launched again.

    Whitecity,
    This is awesome.
    So moving forward from here, you can narrow down which event is causing the behavior but systematically trial and error. Once you determined the exact event folder, there are subfolders underneath:
    /iMovie Movie Cache/
    /iMovie Stabilization/
    /iMovie Thumbnails/
    Try removing these to see if iMovie rebuilds them.

    This error is happening everyday. Please advise for a fix.
    If this is happening on an UPSTREAM server it is because you have approved updates that are no longer available from Microsoft. Almost always this involves approvals of *EXPIRED* updates (which have been pulled from the catalog and cannot be downloaded).
    If this is happening on a DOWNSTREAM server it's because something/someone deleted the files from the upstream server. It can also happen if the entire upstream ~\WSUSContent folder has gone amuk.
    For an upstream server, find the expired updates, remove the approvals, cancel the downloads, and then decline the updates.
    For a downstream server, figure out what the affected updates are and fix the upstream server.

  • The list of workflow actions on the server references an assembly that does not exist

    Hi,
    This issue has been discussed many times in this forum , the reason why I am posting is I tried the resolution steps but I dont see any luck.
    I am getting the below message from the SharePoint designer 2007 when I am trying to modify a workflow
    "This list of workflow actions on the server references an assembly that does not exist. Some actions will not be available. The assembly strong name is Microsoft.SharePoint.WorkflowActions, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c.
    Contact your server administrator for more information."
    #1 : One of the post says "Normally you would see that error because someone has extended the Workflow actions available in SPD with a custom action developed in Visual Studio.  These custom actions are loaded when your workstation reads the WSS.ACTIONS
    file on the server.  The file is located in the 12 hive under Template\1033\workflow.  Your WSS.Actions file contains a reference to a custom action .dll which is not available on the server."
    I opened the WSS.Actions file in notepad, I dont see any line with *.dll in it. Am I missing something?
    #2: Another post says "The solution I discovered was that the server running my SharePoint Services was not up to .NET 3.0.  As soon as I updated to .NET 3.0 everything worked.I had made sure the machine running SharePoint Designer was updated, but
    had missed the SHarePoint Services server."
    The server is already updated to .Net 3.0.
    #3: I went to the %System Drive%\Documents and Settings\Local Settings\ApplicationData\Microsoft\SharePointDesigner.
    Deleted the ProxyAssemblyCache folder but no luck.
    Just checking if any one was able to resolve this issue by following any of the solution other than the above mentioned ones.
    Thanks,
    Cutloo

        I have the similar issue with my custom work flow. I have searched the whole day for the solution but no success, then at last a simple track works for me. Please try this if any one faces such issue.
    Basically the assembly that we have define in the ACTIONS file dose not exists on the server, because of two reasons, either we have given the wrong assembly name (in our case the namespace name inside our solution) or the PublicKeyToken may differ from the
    original assembly, that are deployed in GAC.
        So cross check both of these, in my case the assembly name was fine,
     <Action
        Name="Move Item to Another List and Send Email"
        ClassName="MyAssemblyName.Classname"
        Assembly="MyAssemblyName,Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=4053d1fde8a1c781"
        AppliesTo="all"
        Category="Email actions">
    But the problem was in the 'PublicKeyToken', so i double click on the feature inside my solution,then in the bottom i have clicked on the manifest tab to check the entries.
    <Feature xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/" Title="MyAssemblyName Feature1" Id="f7f1bda0-5f65-40f1-a705-f6f15a41da3a" ReceiverAssembly="MyAssemblyName, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=0c32dbb769ed64b5"
    ReceiverClass="MyAssemblyName.Features.Feature1.Feature1EventReceiver" Scope="WebApplication"></Feature>
    Here i got the actual PublicKeyToken for my assembly (0c32dbb769ed64b5), i have replaced this number inside ACTIONS file, deploy the soultion, reset IIS.
    It works for me,

  • Premiere Element 13 The progress bar on the lower right for Indexing has frozen and when asking to open a video file in the organizer, Premiere does not open.

    The above says it all.

    I can't really answer you first question. What has happened is: when I moved an mpg file from my assets to the movie (I have added already a mpg file in the first part of the movie) a message box appears telling me the file is being "indexed" and then this Indexing progress appears in lower right of screen and it processes up to 99% and then freezes. The file appears in the time line, but the frame appears that says "media pending" and then nothing happens. I can go into the Widows media player and the mpg file plays okay, with audio. That is best I can tell you.
    Though I did not say this earlier, when I try to open this mpg file from the Organizer, Premiere does not open.
    My operating system is Windows 7 on a Dell computer with lots of ram and plenty of space on my hard drive.
    Properties of movie file
    These properties are the same as a file I already inserted in the timeline.
    I look forward to your help and thanks..

    SP,
    Problems like you describe have been reported by users who update one part of their system but not others. If you upgrade your OS, you must Update your applications. That is the most common cause, but of course there could be others.
