The device is in use by another process - error - cannot select Multi Output Device - Mac OSX 10.8.2

Dear Adobe Users!
Please help!
I'm using Adobe Audition CS5.5 on a Mac - OSX 10.8.2 (latest version of Mountain Lion) and I'm trying to select a Multi-Output device.
This was working FINE last few days - today, I get an error. I've tried to re-install Adobe Audition and that hasn't fixed the problem. When it first started up it said it couldn't find any audio devices at all.
Please can you help? I'm getting a message saying the device is being used by another process - but it's not being used by anything else at all!
Hope you are able to help! I use the multi output device option so I can record what I can hear. I spent two days trying to sort that out after it all-of-a-sudden didn't work last Thursday.
Now just spent last two hours trying to get Adobe to recognise the Multi Output device - it's been working fine last few days!
Many thanks if you're able to help!
- Rory

Durin,
May have sussed it! It seems that Built-in output was the way to have it for Audition CS5.5 to record what I'm hearing! Yes, the multi-device needs to be used - but in another settings.
Here's how I have each section configured and it now works!
First of all, in Audition > Preferences > Audio Hardware:-
Then, on the Mac's OS - System Preferences > Sounds (input settings)
Then Output settings :-
Then Midi Settings found in Finder > Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI set up
All now seems to be working! I'll let you know if anything further happens!
I was certain I had the output device as Multi Device Output on Adobe before, perhaps it should've been set to Built-in Audio all along. Anyway, I re-installed my Mac from Time Machine, logged in as another user and it worked under that profile, then logged back in as me - and am using the settings in the pics above and all seems to be working!
It's been a long week, perhaps I was just going around in circles and didn't actually test these particular settings yesterday in this order after all.
Thanks again for your help! Sorry if I've caused any confusion!

  • [HTML]SignTool Error: The file is being used by another process.

    Hello,
    I receive this error from building a JavaScript app on a build server:
    SignTool Error: The file is being used by another process.
    This reproduced when building on local machine, and goes away after building again. However, our company uses gated builds so the first failure will stop an entire 2.1 hour build and I can't ship the product.
    The instruction to launch SignTool is located in external files so I can't disable it, run it twice, or run it in a while loop until succeeds, ignoring failures. I have to get it to work right the first time. I looked on MSDN, and there are other people
    who had this problem and never solved it.

    The only clue I have is our solution having build configurations that aren't called "Debug" and "Release", which have been cloned from Debug/Release and have WinRT apps building. If the build script for WinRT depends on anything being
    called "Debug" and "Release" it wouldn't work correctly.
    In any case, there is no documentation for SignTool that mentions this error - how do I fix it?

    Hi TripleRectified,
    >> If the build script for WinRT depends on anything being called "Debug" and "Release" it wouldn't work correctly
    What's you version of Visual Studio, on my side, in the Visual Studio 2013 Update 4, I created a new configuration(Copy Settings from "Debug") to build a WINJS project, but I can't see the exception you mentioned.
    >>This reproduced when building on local machine, and goes away after building again
    Does it happen on all local machines? We need to exclude environment facts first, for example: Tool, OS etc.

  • Backup stopped before completing. The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process

    I am working with a client who is attempting to backup to a NAS device 
    The device is a linksys NSS6000 (Cisco device).
    It’s a dual 1Gbit LAN device that supports CIFS / FTP and NFS transfers. It has only 1Gbit lan connected.
    The device has 4 *  500 gb sata drives in raid 1  attached.
    Cables go from cat 5 to fiber back to cat5. (The NAS  is located at a neighboring office) The switches are 1gbit.
    Server is a win2k8r1 fully up to date.
    When backing up to the NAS device, the following error occurs:
    Running backup of volume Local Disk(D:), copied (86%).
    Running backup of volume Local Disk(D:), copied (90%).
    Running backup of volume Local Disk(D:), copied (94%).
    Running backup of volume Local Disk(D:), copied (98%).
    Backup of volume Local Disk(D:) completed successfully.
    Backup stopped before completing.
    Summary of backup:
    Backup stopped before completing.
    The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
    If we redirect the backup to a folder on a 2008 share, the backup completes successfully.
    Only when backing up to the linksys NSS6000 does the error occur.
    No other backup processes are writing to the NAS device so I can't understand why the process thinks the file is
    being used by another process.
    One thing we did notice that when the backup to the NAS device occurs, throughput is about 150 mbit average
    On the 2008 server shares we successfully backup to, the through put is 500 mbit.  Not sure if that is important, but
    might be worth mentioning.
    The following event log entry was noted at the end of the backup.
    The description for Event ID '519' in Source 'Microsoft-Windows-Backup' cannot be found. 
    The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display the message,
    or you may not have permission to access them.  The following information is part of the
    event:'2009-05-12T10:13:31.617Z', '', '2147942432', '%%2147942432'
    Any ideas?
    Thanks..Michael

    I am also seeing the same problem backing up nightly to a brand new NAS device (WD My Book Live)
    All the error codes are the same as those in this thread.
    From Windows Event Viewer:

  • 2012 Mac Mini - Using multi-output device?

    I'm trying to get my Mini to output sound over HDMI and the headphone jack. This question has been asked before, but the answer wrongly claimed OSX didn't support it. The Audio MIDI Setup program (in the Utilities folder) does in fact let you set up a multi-output device that uses the headphone and hdmi out. But when I try to output sound with that device, I don't get anything.
    Before I bought this computer, the Apple Store drone claimed this multi-output was possible. But this wouldn't be the first time I've talked to a complete idiot there.

    Some more updates:
    using multi-output and having the line out set as master prevents 5.1 surround from being output on HDMI, which is fine for my use. When I have something plugged into the headphone jack (in my case wireless outdoor speakers) the settings app won't even allow the settings app to choose HDMI as the audio output device, which is also likely why HDMI can't be master in the MIDI app.
    So to get 5.1 surround back for movies I need to unplug whatever's in the headphone jack and change the output device from the multi-output option to HDMI. It's sad my 6 year old PS3 handles this more elegantly and sensibly but at least I don't have to take back my Mini now

  • Server 2012 R2 SMB - The process cannot access the file '\\server\share\test.txt' because it is being used by another process.

    Hi,
    We are having issues with Server 2012 R2 SMB shares.
    We try to write some changes to a file, but we first create a temporary backup in case the write fails. After the backup is created we write the changes to the file and then we get an error:
    The process cannot access the file '\\server\share\test.txt' because it is being used by another process.
    It looks like the backup process keeps the original file in use.
    The problem doesn't always occur the first time, but almost everytime after 2 or 3 changes. I have provided some code below to reproduce the problem, you can run this in a loop to reproduce.
    The problem is that once the error arises, the file remains 'in use' for a while, so you cannot retry but have to wait at least several minutes. 
    I've already used Process Explorer to analyze, but there are no open file handles. 
    To reproduce the problem: create two Server 2012 R2 machines and run the below code from one server accessing an SMB share on the other server.
    Below is the code I use for testing, if you reproduce the scenario, I'm sure you get the same error.
    We are not looking for an alternative way to solve this, but wonder if this is a bug that needs to be reported?
    Anybody seen this behavior before or know what's causing it?
    The code:
    string file =
    @"\\server\share\test.txt";
    if (File.Exists(file))
    File.Copy(file, file +
    ".bak", true);
    File.WriteAllText(file,
    "Testje",
    Encoding.UTF8);
    The error:
     System.IO.IOException: The process cannot access the file '\\server\share\test.txt' because it is being used by another process.

    There is someone else having the same issue with yours. You could try code in the article below:

    How to delete the whole folder ?

    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.

  • I cant figure out what is wrong i keep getting this an OIEception that says "{"The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."}

    I am trying to move a file from a folder to another folder.
    here is my code:
    //storage of the all files
    string[] folderContentNames = Directory.GetFiles(@"C:\Users\Jonah\Desktop\Test Pictures");
    private void historyPictureBox_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    destinationFile = @"C:\Users\Jonah\Desktop\Test Test";
    File.Move(folderContentNames[1], destinationFile);
    updateListBoxFileName();
    updateImageBox();
    each time I hit the bolded underlined part I get that error message.
    if you need anything else just ask.
    Thanks in advance,
    Thor Orb

    Hi Thor,
    If you want to move a file from a folder to another folder, I think you could get the sourcePath and TargetPath. The code below shows a simple demo:
    string[] folders = Directory.GetFiles(@"D:\Test\VSC#\01\WindowsFormsApp\WindowsFormsApp\Test");
    string desFile =Path.Combine( @"D:\Test\VSC#\01\WindowsFormsApp\WindowsFormsApp\Test - Copy\"+Path.GetFileName(folders[1]));
    File.Move(folders[1], desFile);
    In addition, the link below might be useful to you:
    # How to: Copy, Delete, and Move Files and Folders (C# Programming Guide)
    >> The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process
    The message seemed that the file was opened in other process. Did you operate the file with other code?
    I think you could check if the files and the folders were opened, and review your codes if they were used in other places.
    If you have any further questions, please feel free to post in this forum.
    Best Regards,
    Edward

    Ya, Thanks I figured about the path and destation. yes I am using the file in another area, the file is an image jpg and I am displaying it in a picture box. Now I have been doing a little research I see a command called Dispose() and this is suppose to
    release the handle on the image, but I can seem to figure out have to use it correctly.

  • Move-item: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

    Hey,
    I have a powershell script where I first use Get-childitem to receive a number of files.
    Then I do some stuff with it and try to move the file afterwards.
    Unfortunately if I am using a lot of files I receive very often the error:
    The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
    Even -Force parameter does not help further.
    Based on my look around it is not used by another process.
    I think it is still 'in use' by powershell from script commands previously.
    Is there any way to 'see' if the file is still in use currently and wait for this to end?
    Or can I 'close' the current usage of the file?
    Thank you :)

    Hey,
    Thank you.
    I build the following function.
    But either the $return = $true I receive "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process." when I try to move-item... :(
    Function Wait-FileUnlock($FilePath){

    Write-Host "." -NoNewline
    $return = $false
    While($return -ne $true)

    Another functions is:

    How can I see what other process is using the needed file so that I can fix it?
    Thanks

    MelissaB34 it looks like you already are reviewing your installation log files but you can find more information at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html.  From the error you have posted it appears that your current User account is either unable to update C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CC 2014\Support Files\Contents\Windows\AdobeLinguistic.dll or does not have sufficient file permissions to do so.  Since you mentioned you are on a domain please ensure that you are working with your I.T. department and have correct access to this directory.
    You may want to also consider logging in under a local administrator account to see if you face the same difficulties.  This would help you determine if you are facing a file corruption issue or file permission issue.

  • The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process with Execute package task

    Hi,
    I've a master package that calls other packages with an Execute Package Task. Sometimes we have an error: "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process" and sometimes not. It seems random.
    We are working on a Terminal Server and the SQL Server database engine and the files are placed on another server. It seems that the errors doesn't occu when we run the packages on the server with a job. We can't log onto the windows server on this machine..

    I've seen this myself. On most occasions an immediate rerun would fix the issue. As stated this happens only when we try to run this from BIDs. From SQL agent job it always runs fine.

  • 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!

  • Files cannot access because they are used by another process

    I am trying to delete some files in:C:\inetpub\wwwroot\my_site\Under my_site, there are many files and folders, including bin folders which has some .dll files. As soon as I run the script, I get an error message that some of the .dll files cannot be accessed because they are being used by another process, and on some dlls, I get a permission denied error.I don't know what the problem is. I am using the following script, which works perfect for any other folders, but not for the one I am trying to delete. $content = get-childitem 'C:\Backups\my_site'
    $sortedContent = $content | Sort-Object LastWriteTime -Descending
    write-host "This is the list of all the backups for my_site :"
    $count = 1
    foreach ($item in $sortedContent)
    Write-Host ("{0}: {1}" -f $count, $item.Name)
    $count++
    # 2.Take input from user
    $itemNumber = Read-Host "Please select which backup you want to restore"
    $confirmation = Read-Host "Are you Sure You Want To Proceed:"
    # 2.Take input from user
    if ($confirmation -eq 'y') {
    # 3. BACKUP script
    ./bacup_mysite.ps1
    # 3. BACKUP
    # 4. DELETE CONTENTS OF my_site
    get-childitem "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\my_site\" -recurse | % {
    remove-item $_.FullName -recurse -force
    # 4. DELETE CONTENTS OF APP
    # 5. COPY CONTENTS OF ZIP INTO APP DIRECTORY
    $itemNumber = $itemNumber -1
    if($sortedContent[$itemNumber].PSIsContainer -eq $true)
    $src = $sortedContent[$itemNumber].FullName + "\"
    $WebzipPath = $src + "my_site.zip"
    $Date = Get-Date
    $folder_date = $Date.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd_HHmm")
    $tempPath = 'C:\_Temp\Restore\my_site_restore_' + $folder_date
    if (!(Test-Path -path $tempPath))
    New-Item $tempPath -type directory
    ./Library/unzip.ps1 $WebzipPath $tempPath
    $tempPathWeb = $tempPath + "/my_site/*"
    Copy-Item -Path $tempPat -Destination 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot\my_site\' -Recurse -
    force

     am using a script which backups the folders and than in the next block tries to delete those folder from there original location.This is the script
    if ($confirmation -eq 'y') {
    # 3. BACKUP script
    ./bakup_mysite.ps1
    #If i put a Read-Host here it does stop and than ask user to press any key and than it
    deletes the next block, but i want to put a wait so user does not have to press any key
    and everything happens automatically, # 3. BACKUP
    # 4. DELETE CONTENTS OF my_site
    get-childitem "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\my_site\" -recurse | % {
    remove-item $_.FullName -recurse -force
    }I would like the backup to finish first and than delete the original files, because if i use the above script while backup up some files gets locked and at the same time the next block gets executed and it tries to delete the files thats why i would like to put a wait for backup to finish
    Check your assumptions.  How do you know that backup is the only process that might have a lock on those files?

  • Failing capture - file being used by another process.

    Hi there.
    So i have a IBM system x 3550 m4 booting from SAN Windows server 2012.
    I'm trying to capture an image using MDT 2012 installed on windows server 2008 r2.
    The first try to capture failed because of lack of proper network driver in WinPE. So i've managed to boot again in the system (the PE after restart was giving me a 0xc000000f bsod). I've put drivers into boot image and started a second attempt to capture.
    There was a strange thing: the process was stuck very long on bcdedit sub-tasks (as were lagging the interactive bcdedit calls i've tried to do from command line). But nevertheless it managed to reboot and almost finished capturing but crashed at 83% with
