Problem with open Word Documents and Quark Documents

Hi,
I am getting a strange problem with OS X Server 10.4.6, running on a G4 Xserve 1Ghz.
When working on files in Microsoft Word X and 2004 after having the file open for a few minutes if you try and save we get an error "Word failed reading from this file", or "Bad network connection".
Also in Quark 6.52 and Quark 6.1 when trying to save a file to the server we get "File not found [-43]". It is possible to open files, and it is also possible to move files onto the share using finder without any problems. To work on documents we are having to work on them locally on the desktop then copy across once done.
The only thing that i can think has changed is the power went off last night, which casued the Xserve to restart. These problems are occuring across all client computers so i am assuming it can only be a problem with the server.
Does anyone have any idea what this could be, or any tests that i can do to detmine what is up with it
Many Thanks
Tim Pearson

Hi David,
I have just tried power-cycling the switches, still getting the same problem.
I will run disk utility on the shares at lunch. I don't think this will help as it is happening on both data drives.
I have now also updated the OS X server to 10.4.7, and have turned the access log and error log on, it is showing no errors in the error log, and i can't see anything in the access log that looks out of the ordinary.
With Quark i can replicate the same problem every time by creating a new project, saving it, altering it and saving it again (this works), then if i alter it again and try and save it comes up with "Duplicate File Name [-48]". It is also not deleting the temporary files, for example "QXP-1055966280.qxp".

  • Problems with open an Indesign-Document over Network

    Hallo,
    we have a specialized problem with opening indesign-documents over network. Our users works with windows-pc (windows7) and adobe CS5 and CS6 and they will use there documents which are on our macserver 4.0 which works on OS X 10.10.2.
    Sometimes the usurers become this Message
    Wouldn't work indesign proberly on windows with documents which are on a macserver?
    Please help me.
    best regards
    chris mueller

    @Naga Sai J – you cannot open an InDesign CS4 file in the previous version.
    But you can export an exchange file format for InDesign CS3.
    Go to File/Export and chose INX for export: "InDesign CS3 Interchange-Format (INX)"
    That .inx file could be opened with InDesign CS3.
    After opening the .inx file, examine it well!
    Some things might have changed (things regarding to newer or changed features from InDesign CS4).

    even before I saw another error (<b>"There is no iView available for system "SAP_ERP_HumanResources": object "employee". For more information, contact your administrator."</b>) in others posts(questions in sap forums) mentioned, These included the following notes

  • Problem with opening odf document

    is anyone experiencing problems with opening mission control from the desktop.  Running mountain lion with parallels 7 and windows 7

    I had been having a similar problem on Lion with Safari pdf files despite downloading the latest Adobe Reader XI.
    I would constantly get the same messages - There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired. And I would get a blank page when I tried to print the pdf if I tried printing from the Safari web page using File - Print from the top toolbar on my laptop.
    Then I came across the grey Safari lozenge with action icons.
    This allowed me, without downloading the pdf, to print the pdf file direct from the Safari page by using the Print icon on the grey lozenge that appears centrally three quarters down the screen.
    Then I discovered that if I save the pdf using the Save icon from this same grey lozenge on the Safari page I can open and print this pdf version from my desktop.
    I've tested it with a couple of different pdf files and these methods work using the grey lozenge icons but the same pdfs files don't work using File - Save As on the Tool Bar.

  • Hoe to edit Word, Excell and Powerpoint documents

    Hello 
    I had installed the BlackBerry Device Software 4.5 on my BlackBerry 8310 and would like to know how to edit Word, Excel and Powerpoint documents. 
    Can I edit files that i sent from the computer to the device memory card and then send it by email.
    Thankyou

    Hi there!
    If your BB came with the DataViz ToGo apps, then you can indeed do what you desire. Check under (usually) Applications for Word-to-go, sheet-to-go and other ToGo apps. You can edit a file you save to your device or media card memory. You can send them as attachments. Etc.
    Hope that helps!

    I had a major problem with my PC yesterday, and subsequently had to reload Mozilla Foxfire. When reloaded, it opened with "Welcome to AOL - Mozilla Foxfire". I don't want AOL associated or tagged with Foxfire. I went in to "Programs and Files" and deleted everything with AOL, including Quicktime. Tried loading Foxfire again, but it still opened with AOL tagged. I do use AOL for emails and some browsing, but I want to use Foxfire soley for browsing and search engine. And yes, I did also reload AOL. Can't seem to figure out why AOL is tagging onto Foxfire. Hopefully I have not lost all of my Foxfire Bookmarks - that would really suck.

  • I have continuous problems with my iPad Mini, and it is getting worse!  Newstand application keep pausing or crashing, websites keep hanging first time in but then open fine the second time, and I have problems with applictions crashing.

    I have continuous problems with my iPad Mini, and it is getting worse!  Newstand application keep pausing or crashing, websites keep hanging first time in but then open fine the second time, and I have problems with applictions crashing.  Has anyone experienced similar problems and any suggestions?

    Has the device always behaved this way? Did this start as a result of an update to the iOS software? If the problem is that bad, you should probably restore the iOS software and then restore from a backup. If that fails, restore as new and rebuild the device. If that fails, it's time for a trip to an Apple Store to let them have a look at the iPad.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

  • I recently upgraded to Lion, and immediately started having consistent problems with Open Office 12 (would hang, and need a Force quit to recover). Has anybody else seen these problems? Any solutions other than going back to Snow Leopard? (I did).

    I recently upgraded to Lion, and immediately started having consistent problems with Open Office 12 (would hang, and need a Force quit to recover). Has anybody else seen these problems? Any solutions other than going back to Snow Leopard? (I did). But I'd like to use iCloud with iPad.

    Hi Pete. The repair of disk permissions can help resolve  any application crashing or misbehaving.
    As for Lion and the two camps, I think that is a reasonable observation. In my office we have about a dozen Mac's and about one third of those Mac's had problems after updating from 10.6 to 10.7. The main problem for these Mac's was a loss of wifi stability. But for the other two-thirds, Lion was a smooth transition.
    Personally, my Lion experience was fine. But I did get a new i7 MacBook Pro with Lion already installed and only had to migrate my user data from a 10.6.8 TM backup.
    So I think that is a key for Lion's operational success. A clean install of Lion on a new Mac would not cause too many operational issues. But an installation, or more correctly, an update to Lion from SL increased the chances of failure for some users - especially when old software & plugins resided on the Mac. And I would say that they were the people that you saw at the Apple store.
    As for the "latest release of Lion fixed my problems" statement, my experience with these and other forums is that people mostly only go there to complain about the problems they are having. If they are having no problems then they either keep it to themselves or they try to help the users who are experiencing trouble...

    I have an older version of Adobe Digital Editions (around 3 years old) and was very happy with it.
    Then I had problems with my Kobo Reader and asked a friend who works in IT to assist. She could not fix the Kobo but she messed up my Addobe. She downloaded version three and I have an account and a password - was not able to transfer my books from my reader to version three (and I don't like the lay-out - I would prefer to stay with the old version as I also loose all my download date info..)
    But all the books I have bought over the last three years are in the old Adobe Digital and I cannot access them any more. When I use it I get the message "that the document is licensed to a different account. I can't even open the books on my computer.
    When I go to my Kobo library, I cannot also not open my books and get the message "this doc is protected by adobe digital rights management and is not currently authorized for use with your adobe. please sign in with your authorized adobe id and try again"
    I believe the problem is that I do not seem to have a digital id for my old adobe or that the Kobo is not in sync with it anymore.
    can you please help me - going on vacation in three days and cannot go without books.

  • Problem with opening a indd file in CC 2014.

    When I'm trying to open a 5.5 .indd-file in CC 2014 on my Windows computer, I get this error message: 'Either the file does not exist or you do not have permission to open it or the file is used by another program'. However my collague has no problem with opening the document on his Mac computer. I guess it has something to do with a kind of setting in my CC 2014. Can anyone help me?

    Nothing to do with ID. It really means what it says - your file permissions are hosed and it being an ID file this could include things like fonts or placed images referenced within it.

  • Problem with opening some of PDFs in Photoshop CS6.

    Hi, I have a problem with opening some of PDFs in Photoshop CS6. It is said: it isn't possible to carry out an order since the module of the file format cannot analyse this file

    Don’t know if Reader has this, too, but in Acrobat one can check under Document Properties.
    I can convert and place the file in Photoshop CS6.
    I would recommend trying the usual trouble-shooting routines and if nothing helps un-installing, running the Cleaner and re-installing Photoshop.  (After making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved to s secure location.)

  • I have a problem with the effect gallery and the saving libraries in Illustrator CS6

    Hi everybody
    I have a problem with the effect gallery and the saving libraries in Illustrator
    1. When you go to to effects > effect Gallery the the sketch filter always is black and white. Is this normal? In Photoshop you can set your background and foreground and the sketch effects takes those colors. Is there any way to do this in Illustrator? I have tried changing the colour of the fill and stroke but nothing...
    2. In the same area as before effects > effect Gallery .... In Photoshop you can add multiple filters with the create new button. Always is off is there anyway to make it available? or the only way is to by creating several individual ones and manage then in the appearance panel ...
    3. I saved a brush library and now it appears in the user defined area so I can get it in any document, that is good but any one knows how to delete a user undefined library?
    Many thanks in advance for the help .... I look forward for the reply =)

    I see that it is six months ago that I first posted this. Nothing has changed. When I use affixa to create a message with an attachment from my gmail account in firefox, the message is created in drafts, but the gmail window is closed and I have to re-open it. Not critical, but annoying.
    Now there is a plug-in on the affixa site that is supposed to be designed for Firefox, and which affixa support claims should take care of this. And I've downloaded it twice. When you download it and open it, it says that it will be installed when Firefox restarts, and gives you a button to restart Firefox. But after you click that button and firefox disappears and re-appears, the affixa plug-in is NOT in the plugin list.
    Please, somebody, HELP.
