Services error: Shortcut used by another action

I have this problem on my desktop and my MBPro. In my preferences under 'Services' I have a yellow symbol and it says 'Shortcut used by another action.'
I've tried everything to get this to work but can't figure out what's causing this.
I did a 'restore defaults' and it's still there.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Coda: I finally called about this. The Apple tech guy was kind of rude, and insisted that I listen to him instead ask questions, and he absolutely insisted that my batteries were dead or low on power. They were not.
However, I can't seem to use an older wireless bluetooth keyboard that worked fine with my no-so-old-iMac. It wouldn't "blinky-blink" during setup. I gave up and pulled out the new keyboard. After messing with it a bit, I was able to set it up. Still wondering why the older device (which looks identical) didn't work.

2nd attempt pdf export: I.O. error - in use by another process.

I am using vb.net 2008 with the bundled crystal reports.
I open a report in a CR viewer and have a button to export the rept to pdf and then email it. (using the DiskFileDestinationOptions() and rpt.exportoptions) All works fine. However, if user presses the button to do the email again (same rpt is still in viewer), I get the error:
system.IO.IO. exception. The process cannot access the file (myfile.pdf ) because it is being used by another process.
I found a post that said to close the report and the DiskFileDestinationOptions after the export but that does not solve the problem. I think it relates to the email with the pdf as an attachment.
The only way to solve this so far is to exit the viewer and create the report again.
What can I do to leave the viewer open and email more than once.

As an FYI for anyone that may find this thread while searching for export to mapi. I am copying a link to a blog that has the code for export to mapi:

'Failed to find Service' error w/ using Bluetooth to send pix FROM phone TO PC/VAIO?

Hi there everyone. This is an error I just started receiving tonight for the first time (that I can recall).
I have a bunch of photos on my 8900's memory (not on my memory card, but stored to my phone), and I'm trying to send them to my Sony VAIO via selecting the photo > Menu > Send Using Bluetooth. This has been working fine for me. I was on vacation in Cali a few days ago and had to transfer photos numerous times a day via Bluetooth from my 8900 to my VAIO, and everything was fine. Now that I'm home...I'm trying to transfer the photos I took with my BlackBerry to my VAIO the same way I always do, but I'm getting this error message: "Failed to find service". I have no clue what's going on!
This was probably a foolish move on my part but I removed my BlackBerry from my list of Bluetooth devices on my VAIO and also removed my VAIO from my list of Bluetooth devices on my BlackBerry. Frustration got the best of me and I figured a clean fresh start might fix the problem. It didn't make it worse, but I'm still encountering the same darn problem.
I've seen similar problems occur with other BlackBerry models, but older ones. Pearls, etc. Someone mentioned connecting my BlackBerry to my VAIO to update it w/ the BlackBerry update tool. I thought that was something that could be done over the air..? Or am I wrong? Problem is, I can't for the life of me seem to find that darn USB cord. (If anyone could tell me or direct me where to order a new one, that'd be great)!
ANY help or assistance with this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!
Oh! And yes, I do have my Bluetooth enabled on both my BlackBerry and my VAIO.

Hi!
So...a couple of questions:
1) On which device does the error message appear?
2) Does the error only appear when sending from your BB?
3) Can you successfully receive on your BB?
4) Are you able to transfer files via the USB cord?
Thanks.

Error occurs during reseed - the EDB file is being used by another process

Greetings,
We were notified today that one of our databases in an Exchange 2013 cluster is currently in a failed state. We have three servers - two at the primary site and one in the DR site. The database has a mounted and healthy copy on its preferred server, but
the secondary copy is now failed with a pretty high CopyQueueLength.
I've done plenty of reseeds with Exchange 2010, and I understand that Exchange 2013 will do an automatic reseed in the event of a failure. However the auto-reseed is generating the following message:
Automatic Reseed Manager failed to execute repair workflow 'FailedSuspendedCopyAutoReseed' for database 'DB05'. Error: The Automatic Reseed Manager encountered an error: The automatic repair operation for database copy 'DB05\mb02' will not be run because
one of the prerequisite checks failed. Error: There are no Exchange volumes mounted under root path 'C:\ExchangeVolumes', which are required for the Automatic Reseed component.
WorkflowLaunchReason: The seeding operation failed. Error: An error occurred while performing the seed operation. Error: The process cannot access the file 'M:\DB05\DB05.EDB' because it is being used by another process.
During the course of my investigation, I tried to rename the .edb file to .old and was told that the file is in use by Microsoft.exchange.store.worker.exe. There doesn't seem to be a way to kill this process, as every time I've tried I've been told that
access is denied. I'm not even sure it's wise to kill the process anyway (I'm only trying to kill the one with the PID that matches the database).
Attempting to manually reseed the database generates a similar error to the one above. I've failed all the databases over to the other server and restarted the Information Store service as well as the Host Controller service, but so far I can't seem to get
this file unlocked. One article I found did mention making sure that Exchange Servers is listed and given Read access to the folder. I did manually set this but I still see no change. I also verified that Symantec Endpoint Protection is set to exclude .edb
files, and the automatic Exchange exclusions are preventing it from scanning the Exchange install locations.
I'm curious if anyone has any suggestions that I might have missed so far. This is confusing the daylights out of me and I'd like to be able to get this reseeded. I suspect that even a full server restart won't clear this up, so any help would be great.
We're just starting to transition users over from Exchange 2007 to 2013, and I'd prefer to have a method of avoiding this in the future before we're in full production.

Thanks for your response, Ed! I really appreciate you taking the time to do so.
The ultimate fix for this was a reboot of the server and I was finally able to kick off a reseed. For the sake of thoroughness, here's the last two things we tried before rebooting.
I did try stopping the Symantec Endpoint Protection service on the server, but the job still failed in the same way. I'd also been given the recommendation to try stopping the Information Store service and try a reseed like that. Still no love. I've been
using ProcessExplorer, too, to try and isolate the lock, but didn't have much luck there, beyond what I already knew regarding the store.worker.exe locking the file.
I don't much care for the notion that I needed to reboot the server to remove that lock, I was really hoping for something less intrusive. But at least we've got it working and can move on with our day!
Again, thanks for your response, Ed!

Hi there - I think I am having problems associated withg Cause 9 in that in google mail I have another pop email address associated so that I can send using this email address, but then I have both addresses setup seperately in BIS. When I receive a mail from GMAIL I receive a duplicate with "received by: unknown" in the header. I had gmail setup so that it would send using by pop email address as default.
In your answer the settings for the two filters you recommend creating are broken links and I canot actually see them. What are they?
Also What do you recommend setup wise with gmail and a pop account. Some people say it is better to get gmail to receive the pop mail account and run the whole account from there. Blackberry doesn't seem to like this setup very much. Should I completely dissociate the pop account and to try and clarify the distinction between the two? Or should I setup a second gmail account and have that poll my pop account and then have the blackberry feed off these two gmail accounts? The reason I am considering this option is gmail provides a lot of storage and online continuity and this would effectively persist my account.
Your help would be much appreciated.. I have had blackberry woes now for over a month and I have spent hours with various support personel, tried deleteing and sending down new service books etc etc but had no luck yet.
thanks,
Nathan

Suyin Webcam "Not installed or in use by another" error on windows 7 64 Home Premium. I have tried all advice found, nothing works. Can you help me?

Hello,
I have an integrated webcam that has not been working for approx 6 months! I have updated the Suyin driver/software from Gateway.com. It installs with no problems. I have the webcam icon on
my toolbar and I am able to open the help menu for the software and directions on how to use the camera. However I can't open the preview window and get an error message "camera not installed or in use by another." In device manager, it shows 1.3
M webcam under imaging devices with no errors and the driver being updated. The driver is not Suyin but a Microsoft usb video driver
6.1.7601.17514 from 6/21/ 2006? I have done driver scans from multiple sites that show the webcam driver is up to date?
I have a NV53A Gateway laptop with an AMD 4200 Radeon HD Graphic Card which is updated from AMD.com with a 13.1 Cataylst Vision Engine Control Driver for my AMD VGA card. The webcam worked before with AMD updates such as 12.6.

I hope I provided enough info for you to help me? Everywhere I go I have done what I read, such as uninstall, reinstall, update driver, download from inf file, go to gateway.com,etc...
I don't know if AMD is controlling my webcam? When I click on flash it states no webcam found, the mic is found though. Skype and other sites also say no webcam found. I don't know why I can't install Suyin through device manager?
The software installed is
UVC 0.6.47.1:VIDEO Web Camera
I have multiple registry entries for suyin from the download such as regedit 5.0 Suyin which by default has this error message in many languages? There is also a USB registry that flashes when installed and
a echo@ registry entry too. These are located in the folder in Windows/ Programs/86 under Video Web Camera. What has taken over my webcamera?????
I don't know if I need a BIOS update to fix this from gateway.com??? I haven't done that because I am unsure and don't want to make this worse. I do find at the gateway site the only update is the webcam
which is 1/21/11. The others are the same from 6/24/2010, which I already have. I bought the computer in 12/2010 new. The webcam was working in 12/13 , for I had a 2 year warranty and no issues . I think this is a simple fix but I am not an expert,
only good at following logical,proper instructions to fix an error.
I'd be grateful and shocked if anyone can help me. I have no viruses and have Norton 360 running all the time and done check-ups with Malware and Superspy.
I have another user on my computer which is myself but logged off. If I deleted the other user, would my webcam work or is it my registry, AMD??? I am sooooo frustrated !!!!!! I am confused why
device manger states no errors and driver sites find no webcam updates or errors, either. There is no Suyin driver in the driver store and the inf file won't install per device manager?
Thank-you for your time and if you are unable to assist me , please advice where to go. Please let me know if you need more information.
Kindly,
Victoria

I did some googling and found alot of topics from you on this issue, to me it simply seems like on of the connectors is broken or loose.

There was an error opening this document. This file is already open or in use by another application

I cannot open any PDF documents. I receive one of two error messages:
"There was an error opening this document. This file is already open or in use by another application."
"This file is in use. Enter a new name or close the file that's open in another program."
I do not know how to open the document in another program, so I am perplexed how it could be open in another program.
I tried Repair the Adobe Installation from within Adobe Reader and from the Control Panel (Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features\Uninstall or change a program) using the Change option. I'm assuming they are the same process, although I'm not sure. Neither method worked. I rebooted after each.
I'm at work at a huge federal agency, so we're of course on a network. It takes several days to receive agency IT help, which is why I'm asking here. I can open Word and text documents. Nothing else seems to be amiss on the 'ol pc.
Adobe Reader 11.0.05
Windows 7
As you can tell, I have only limited knowledge of the possible issues.
Thanks!

Shared network drive.
I was not able to open the PDF documents via Notepad.
Interestingly, and perhaps supportive of your hypothesis, I subsequently had problems with Outlook wherein I could not save or close an email I was writing because "you do not have permission." I rebooted my computer and now Outlook works fine (and it save my email, thank goodness), and I can open PDF documents.
Hopefully it will stay this way. If not, I'll be back!
Thank you very much for offering to help.
All the Best,
Mark

I am trying to burn a music cd on iTunes, but I am getting an error that reads that the cd burner is being used by another application. I know that I am not using the cd burner for anything else. I have restarted the Mac and nothing. Any ideas?

One other thread said it was fixed by waiting till prompted by iTunes to insert the blank disk, instead of putting it in first. Does that work? Found a number of hits on this Googling.

Also, if your VM has snapshots and you delete it, you must wait for the snapshots to finish merging - the VHD files will be locked until then.

Error message: File can't be opened right now because it's being used by another task, such as moving or copying an item or emptying the Trash. Try again when the current task is complete.

I recently transferred some data from my external hard drive to my desktop, but there was an error transferring some of the files and it couldn't respond, and eventually i simply removed the external hard drive. However, the folder/files are still on my desktop, and when i try to move them or delete them, this error message appears:
“-folder/file name-” can’t be opened right now because it’s being used by another task, such as moving or copying an item or emptying the Trash. Try again when the current task is complete.
Since I removed the external hard drive before the files were finished transferring, there is no way for the current task to be completed. How can I resolve this and delete the folders/files from my desktop?

I just managed to resolve this by going to the apple sign in the top left, choosing force quit (or you could do option+command+esc), then i chose finder, and i clicked relaunch. After relaunching finder, the error message doesn't appear anymore, and I could move these files/folders, and delete them just fine.
Hope this will help other people who encounter similar problems in the future!
