Render will not overwrite files

I have a project which involves generating a number of unique shake scripts. In ironing out the workflow I've discovered that Shake does not want to overwrite an existing file when I render out. Is there some hidden switch I need to set to force file overwrites? At the moment I'm not rendering with a shell script I am doing it from the gui using render of FileOut nodes.
I know this is the case because if I delete the file in question and then go back and select render the new file is there. If I try to rerender again, shake behaves as if it is rendering (flipbook pops up) but when I go to the directory in question, the old file is still there.

This can happen if the file is in use by another application, like Final Cut.
In that case, quit Final Cut before rendering.
It's nice that Shake doesn't tell you there's a problem.

Programs will not overwrite files.

I attempt to save files, or overwrite files using multiple programs and they will not save as overwrites. They save with (1) behind the original name. Normally this would not be a great issue, but I deal with many files
at a large volume. I deal with .pdf files. Using Adobe Reader, G.I.M.P. 2, PDF24 Creator, and PDF Split and Merge Basic. This problem only began 1 week ago. I have attempted to remedy with malware scans, disk defrag, virus scans and ultimately formatted and
re-installed windows. Any help would be wonderful. Thanks.

Check file properties, do you see "Locked" ? Or unlock option ?
If file read only ?

Dreamweaver not overwriting files on the server

I am having the same problem that was mentioned in another post andthe issue has increased in Dreamweaver CS4. It will not overwrite new files to the server consistently. Even the date changes in some cases but the old file is still there. It is not a problem with the server because when I upload them with FETCH everything works. It is EXTREMELY frustrating and makes the program almost useless if you can't use this aspect of it. I have checked all the preferences and can't find anything that is causing this except for that I don't usually upload the dependent files because they already exist. What is the deal? Anyone know?

I have run into something similar on our webserver where the server was caching files. I am not sure how our IT guy fixed it, but I cleared the browser cache, and it still rendered the old page because the server was caching it.

Can not overwrite files on windows server

we use a mac mini with os x 10.6.2. when trying to save files to a windows server it will not overwrite the files. we have to save using a new name then delete the original file and rename the new one back to the desired name. can not figure out why. any ideas?

the permissions on the server are read/write. files can be overwritten. we have another mac mini with an older version of os (10.5.something) and it works fine. this mini is new so i think it has something to do with the new os.

DW will not upload files!

Hello all!
I am having trouble with DW uploading files through FTP. I
can upload a new
file and all is fine, but when I try to upload a file that
already exists
( a file on the remote server that I have updated and then
uploaded), DW
will not overwrite the existing file on the server.
It comes up with a box and tells me that the file on the
server is newer and
do I want to overwrite it and I click YES TO ALL, but it
still doesnt
overwrite the server file.
How does this happen and how do I fix it?
Please help!
Jason

Does the timestamp on the remote file change?

Adobe Acrobat 11 will not open files in IE 10.0.06

Adobe Acrobat 11 will not open files in IE 10.0.06. Problem started about 2 months ago. It can open older files on computer but cannot open or downloadd any from internet. Using Office 2010. Already spent an hour with my computer tech support under warranty. Please help identify issue. Thanks

As a web designer - IMHO, Internet Exploder is absolute garbage disguised as software. This (and thousands of other threads in this and many other forums throughout the web) is just more proof of that. I've used Firefox since 2002 when it was still called Mozilla. It does about a million things IE can't and won't, and does them better, faster, and more sensibly.
Microsoft KNOWS that most corporate workstations have Windows and most I/T departments forbid installation of unapporved software, including browsers, so (by a very slim margin) IE is still the most used browser in the world, but... that doesn't by any means make it the best choice. Because they know so many people are literally FORCED to use it at work, they will not make it more functional than they absolutely have to, because they don't care if people like it or not, when they have no other choice.
On a home computer, it's different, and that's why Firefox is just a fraction of a percentage point behind IE in worldwide use, and thanks to iPhones, Safari is rapidly climbing the numbers too.
Rather than trying to work around something that even Microsoft won't bother to fix, abandon their junk and go with Firefox, Opera, Chrome or Safari. It won't be long till you're glad you did.

Adobe Indesign & Illustrator CS6 will not open files off server after Mac Maverick update.

I updated to Mac OS X Maverick and all the sudden my InDesign and Illustrator will not open files off of my works network. I read somewhere about installing the new Java update may help fix it, but I tried it and it did not. I have restarted my computer and reset the connection to the server multiple times, but it does nothing.
The exact message I get is: "Cannot open the files "xxxx.indd" Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file may be missing, or the file may be open in another application" I know for a fact that it is not open in another application so it is not that. I have tried multiple files on the server as well.
For Illustrator, I try to open a file from the server and it just freezes and does not respond so I have to force quit.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Please help!

If you had asked before you did this I would have told you not to move to Mavericks unless you were prepared for problems. I’m not a proponent of upgrade installations for operating systems and there’s no way to eliminate that as the cause.
That said, before you start erasing the whole machine, try uninstalling CS6 and then reinstalling it. You might want to run the cleaner tool after the uninstallation.

Will not print files from mobile phone says it **may have** a virus- and deletes the file

My HP photosmart premium with wireless ePrint, will not print files from mobile phone says it **may have** a virus- and deletes the file?!? My Fiance has the same phone, and I used it. It completed the file??? If I text message and E-mail address, my cell phone will come up as and E-mail address... has anyone else had this issue? Is it because I texted the the file? It didn't seem to be and issue on any of the other mobile phones used.... I am out of answers.... I tried to E-mail as well...
Thanks in advance

I have nearly the same problem, the printer discards my print job even when i have entered my email address as authorised senders.
Details from my other post:
I sent 2 emails to the printer:
- one is a 3 lines of text and numbers in a GIF file sent as an attachment
- another is a jpg circuit diagram paste in a word doc sent as an attachment
both are classified as spam and refused to print. i have no email coming back saying it failed (even i have checked "Email Job Status" in ePrint Settings.
So what will this HP printer print?
How can I switch this useless spam filter off?
I have get this filter off! I need this email printing to work reliably, that is a major reason I bought this printer
Any suggestions are welcomed...
HP's slogan on the box:
"Now you can print from virtually anywhere" (but get discarded every single time!)

Ibook author 2 will not open file created in ibook author

ibook author 2 will not open file created in ibook author. How can I find out what is causing this? I read it might be a video file, but can't find out which one.
TIA

There should not be a simple issue just because of versions, I think.
You may have a corrupted asset, as you seem to think. In that case, it's up to you to dig into the exact cause, sorry.
Did you call support for this yet?

Lightroom 6 Develope Module will not load files, can't see photos.

Lightroom Develop Module will not show files. I can see photos in library, film strip. I'm fully paid member of adobe cloud and registered. I've signed out and in again but this did not resolve the issue. The problem happened after moving from lightroom 5.7 to 6. All worked OK in 5.7, using canon 5D mark 2 CR2 files version 2.2. I have photoshop 2015 CC and when I go to camera raw ( version 9 ) The photos do not show here as well. Both are blue boxes with an X across the page just like in the Develop Module in Lightroom 6. Again files could be seen in ACR photoshop 2014. As am using the latest updates of lightroom and photoshop creative Cloud, not sure why I can't see files in the develop module in lightroom and in camera raw in photoshop ?
By Michael.

I'm no expert on GPUs and graphics cards, so I suggest you read this thread:
GPU notes for Lightroom CC (2015)
My impression. though, is that most people don't experience a huge speed improvement using the GPU, myself included.
But this will probably change in future versions, at the moment only certain functions in the Develop module use the GPU.
As for differences in GPU support between Photosop and LR, I assume that PS supports older and less powerful GPUs than Lightroom does.
Edit: But the bottom line is that LR doesn't support GPU acceleration with you graphics card, so leave it off.
