The maximum number of files already open....

I just started getting a message in adobe reader 9, The maximum number of files are already open. No other files can be open or printed until some are closed. I only have 1 file open. Any suggestions other than getting rid of Adobe!

Try a search of the forum. I faintly remember such a thing being brought up before in the last month or two.

Error maximum number of files already open error.No Other files can be opened or printed until some are closed

Hi everyone,
While opening a file in Adobe reader 10 in Windows 7,I am getting the error as
"The maximum number of files are already open.No Other files can be opened or printed until some are closed."
Can Anyone help or suggest a setting for this ?
Thanks in Advance

Hello omkar841987,
Could you please let me know how many files have you opened simultaneously.
This count will include files that are being displayed as well as opened (without being shown in the viewer).
Using Reader, you cannot make any setting for the same, but close some of the files before crossing that limit.
It also depends on your OS and memory size as you would need enough memory to open many files at a time.

Hi Memalyn
Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

The maximum number of files have been indexed

Hi
I've just tried using Edge Code with a large project. Upon attempting to use Quick Edit on a class name I got the following error: "Error indexing files. The maximum number of files have been indexed. Actions that look up files in the index may function incorrectly."
After closing the pop-up window, the Quick Editor fails to work.
Are there any plans to increase the size of the index limit? I'm very impressed with the software so far, but not being able to use the quick edit function defeats the purpose of using Edge Code.
Cheers,
Roberto

Each device can only set up 3 iCloud accounts. After that, all you can do is re-use one of the accounts that has already been set up on this device, or set up a new account on a different device if you have one.

"The maximum number of files are already open"

When I open Acrobat 8 standard, it automatically starts opening files by itself. It goes until it gets to 50 and then gives me this error message. I click OK on the error message and it keeps returning as if it wanted to keep opening files. I can't close any of the files individually. I can close them all via Windows Task Manager. I'm running Windows XP Pro. I restarted my computer today for the first time in weeks and this is what I now get. Prior to the restart, no problems like this.
Any ideas?

What is the maximum number of files that Finder can display in a directory?

When displaying systems in an Active Directory domain, Finder only displays some of the systems.
I presume that Finder is treating the list of SMB/CIFS systems as if they were entries in a file directory. The number of systems that should appear in the list is around 10,000 but only about half of these are displayed in Finder.
Is there a way to increase the number of systems displayed in Finder?

Yes, I am working with a Windows Active Directory domain.
When using Finder>Network> to display systems in an Active Directory domain, it fails to display all of the systems. Is there a Finder limitation that causes this?
When the system was originally brought online, only the local systems that were members of the Active Directory domain were displayed. Over time, the number of systems that have been "discovered" has increased. The entries are maintained in ascending alphabetical order. Currently, only systems with names beginnig with A through M are listed.
This creates a bit of a problem for our Technical Publications group as all of the systems in our facility start with the letter T.
Does Finder have a limit on how many entries that it can display for a given directory?
Is the list of Active Directory systems being maintained in memory and, hence, limited by memory resources?
Is there a way to filter the list?

MultiFileSelectPopup maximum number of files

Hi,
What is the maximum number of files that can be opened with this command/popup:
MultiFileSelectPopup
Thanks

Hello,
The Windows API limits the input field to 32767 bytes so you will not be able to select more than that number of files. Have a great day!

Maximum number of files in a folder ?

Hello, what is the maximum number of files in a folder OS X can handle ?
I used a file recovery software called FileSalvage to save some files of an external 300GB with a corrupted disk directory (unable to repair with the usual repair/recovery programs).
FileSalvage recovered about 435,000 files and sorted them by extension in individual folders, unfortunately it does not recognize the file names and just sequentially names the files per extension.
The .jpeg, .gif and .html folders had up to 75,000 files. After recovery the external FW drives started to behave very strange, unresponsive, just hanging, time-out. I tried on a Mac Mini, iMac G5, an iBook and PowerBook, OS X 10.3.9 and 10.4.3, FW400/800 and USB 2.0 interface, they all had pretty much the same failure mode after a while.
Running Disk Utility on the drives with the recovered FileSalvage folders showed a corrupted directory (invalid file count) and unable to repair, although I could copy most of the folders of the disk (deleted the folders with more than 10,000 files per folder).
I suspect that File Salvage copies more files in a folder than OS X allows, causing unpredicable problems.
Any ideas ?

From "Mac OS X: Mac OS Extended Format volume and file limits"
"Maximum number of files (or files and folders) in a folder … up to 2.1 billion"
According to a note in the document, the above is subject to the drive's size (maximum 16 terabytes in "Tiger") and block size, ie. the number of available blocks.
So it would appear that the number of files you mentioned would be well within theoretical limits, although I suppose there could be a bug in some other part of OS X. Otherwise, maybe there is a problem with the drive...

E-edition freezes up with 1A.pdf The max. number of files are already open no other files can be opened or printed until some are closed , showing four of five and computer froze any I must close by shutting down manually.

My online E-Edition newspaper will freeze up after loading the front page and gives me the message that the max. number of files are already open and no other files can be printed or opened until some are closed. 1A.pdf. When you click ok it repeats itself and you have to force shutdown by holding off button. I'm totally stumped.

I have read that "1000" is default maximum for Acrobat 4 or Acrobat 5 (I don't remmember it exactly anymore). Concerning my PC and RAM. I have a high-end graphical computer at my office; so I'm sure the RAM memory is not the reason.
Anyway, thanks for answer.

Illustrator won't run: "unable to set maximum number of files to be opened"

I have an intel macbook pro (core duo with 2GB ram) and a copy of purchased adobe creative suite 2. Other applications in the suite like photoshop, acrobat, etc can run on my mac without any problem. But when I try to run illustrator, it just shows an error message "Unable to set maximum number of files to be opened" and quits. I also installed a trial version of illustrator cs3 and got the same problem. Can anyone help? Thanks.

How can I set the maximum number of restarts for my PDF files?
My software edition is Acrobat X

In the old days when PDFs were only opened on desktops and only in Acrobat or Reader, scripting could fake security features and people were generally convinced. As there are so many ways to open a PDF without scripts ever being run (from mobile devices to in-browser display, or simply opening the file in Illustrator), none of that works anymore.

any comment will be really appreciated.

Assuming that you don't want to actually do this from within Java code (which would obviously require native code), here's a utility that will give you a list of which file handles are opened by which processes (on Windows):
