Unable to check in or out as someone is editing (but they aren't!)

Hi,
Bit of a weird one here, I'm working on some corporate documents that require linking content, I've done this by exporting incopy ICML's then placing them, assign them and then create a ICMA this allows the team to make edits in Incopy that carry across a number of documents. It's all on a server and seemed to be working fine but now we can't seem to check in or out one particular box, it says it's being edited by another user but he isn't so I'm a bit stumped. We get the pencil with the red cross through it. It seems to be working on other documents fine just this one is causing an issue.
It's all in Indesign/Incopy CS6. Windows 7
Thanks in advance.

We have had a similar problem as well - inCopy claims that an assignment is checked out, but the user cannot access it to check it back in or make changes.
Did you guys ever figure out a fix?

I sent photos out of my IPhoto library, but they do not appear in my "Sent" folder on my GMail although that mail account was in the "From" field?

If you're using iPhoto as your email client a sent version is not created. You need to BCC yourself in order to get a copy.
The better solution is to use Mail as your email client in conjunction with Gmail. This will give you a sent copy, better access to your contacts and, if so desired, photo templates to use via Mail's stationary feature.

Hello Sylviaxox,
It seems you are experiencing an issue with the microphone of your iPhone. That does sound troublesome. The following article provides troubleshooting guidance which may help you find a solution:
If your voice is too faint or sounds unclear using iPhone, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Fix common issues
Follow these steps, testing after each with Voice Memos.
Unplug anything plugged into the headset jack.
If you're on a call and holding your phone next to your ear, speak into the microphone and make sure you don't block it with your fingers or shoulder.
If you're using a screen protector or case that covers the microphone, remove it. Clear any debris from the microphones.
Restart your device.
Update to the latest version of iOS.
If you've tried these steps and people still can't hear you well on calls, contact Apple Support.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

I can't find my podcasts in my iTunes app. I've checked under the 'more' tab but they aren't there. Help!

I've looked under the 'more' tab in iTunes and the podcasts aren't there. The only way I can find them is if I search the individual podcasts. How do I get them back into my iTunes app?

Well, in the iTunes app on my iPhone 4, I was able to search for "podcast" and get back a huge list of podcasts. Once I selected one of them, it offered to "Open in PodCasts app", so that seems to work. In the PodCasts app, it is fairly easy to search for podcasts, but I can't say that the app is the most intuitive to use. I've struggled through with it since iOS 6 was released, and it seems to be workign better now with the latest few updates, but I have still found a few issues with it...

No sound will come out of the right headphone, but they work on my other devices..is this a common problem for the classic?

Two headphones are now in limbo due to a strange curse my iPod Classic 160Gb seems to hae. Affter a couple of weeks, sound will cease to emit form the right headphone unless i jiggle the plugs cable around. Funny thing is, my headphones work fine on other devices..Is this a common problem?

I tried to update my driver and it works fine now, I appreciate looking through this forum and finding answers for problems that I am having.

"Unable to check out" error message in CS4

I have InDesign CS4, but do not have InCopy. When I exported an InDesign CS4 file to CS3 interchange format, and then tried to edit the orginal file, I got an error message saying: "Unable to check out this file. It may be in use by someone else." From reading the documentation, it appears that I inadvertently engaged a feature of InCopy, but when I go to the Edit->InCopy menu, the option to check the file back in is greyed out. How do I check the file back in so that I can edit it?

I've just experienced the same error message in CS4. I got rid of it by going to the Links panel, selecting all the links to Incopy, and Unlinking.

"Unable to Check Out File Error" Message

I'm new to using Adobe products, so forgive me if this is a dumb question! My graphic designer sent me a INDD file to edit the text in and when I try to open it in both InDesign and InCopy, I receive an "Unable to Check Out this File" error message. I just downloaded InDesign CC and InCopy CC (the free trial versions). She said that all settings on her end should allow me to view it. Any help is much appreciated!
Thank you!

I am trying to edit my music list and then sync it to my iPhone 5 so I don't run out of storage space. However, I see the check marks on the iTunes library but am unable to uncheck them? How do I manually edit what will be synced to my phone?

I am trying to edit my music list and then sync it to my iPhone 5 so I don't run out of storage space. However, I see the check marks on the iTunes library but am unable to uncheck them? How do I manually edit what will be synced to my phone? (the check marks are not bolded, does this mean they are not in my library but only on my phone?)

You uncheck the music in your iTunes library on your computer and along with sync only checked songs and videos selected under the Summary selection for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, only checked songs in your iTunes library will be transferred to your iPhone or remain on your iPhone and the unchecked songs in your iTunes library that are currently on your iPhone will be removed when syncing.
Or make use of iTunes playlists and choose selected playlists, albums, artists under the Music selection for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and select the playlists below that you want transferred to your iPhone.

Unable to check for purchases..... timed out.

Hello.
On 7/1/08 I bought 353 tv episodes.
Initially a few downloaded while I slept that night, but then they stopped, and ever since then i've been getting this message.
"Unable to check for purchases. The network connection timed out.
Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, then try again."
1. I don't use any sort of firewall or router.
2. I don't have any anti-virus/adware/malware/etc software enabled.
I've tried flushing the DNS, I've tried deleting temporary internet files, i've deleted cookies, history files, all that. I added it to trusted sites. There is nothing blocking this connection, and I can connect to anything else just fine.
In fact, I can even connect to the store. If I purchase a song it will download.
And a few times i've been able to get it started in the past 13 days to where I am down to only 179 left to download.
It must have to do with how many things are in the queue is all I can imagine, although I have gotten it to work a few times.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.... 13 days and only able to download half of what I bought is really upsetting.

BTW I am using vista 32 bit
Oh, and i've tried connecting with WIFI, WWAN and a cable modem connection.

I am having the same problem, only a little more insidiously. What happened to me is I successfully downloaded a bunch of iPhone Apps, mainly with iTunes 7.7.0 under Windows XP. I then upgraded to iTunes 7.7.1 and when I tried to use the "Available Updates..." button on the Apps screen, I am told that I have not downloaded any of the purchases I already have. So I am told to "Check for purchases..." and I do this, but I always get the timed out message like you. It says it needs to download 292 things. It just doesn't make any sense! I can't update my apps because iTunes THINKS I haven't downloaded them, but I HAVE downloaded them. And what's more, iTunes thinks I need to re-download them, but when I try to do that, I get a Time out. And further, my theory is that it is BECAUSE there are 292 items it needs to download that it Times Out! I believe the connection is not actually timing out, but that the server is taking too long to assemble the message (plist) and thus the issue is really that the time outs in iTunes are set to short. I want to binary decompile iTunes and change the time out value but that would be illegal in my country, much as it would make people like you and me have a much sweeter life. Alas.

Unable to check for available downloads. The network connection timed out.

I downloaded iTunes 10.1.2 last week, and attempted to upgrade some music to iTunes Plus. I'm showing 35 items in my download queue, but when I attempt to download I get a message "Unable to check for available downloads. Network connection timed out."
I e-mailed Apple Tech Support multiple times, and received their standard list of links for things to try. So far I have reinstalled iTunes, turned off my Norton Firewall, checked the program rules settings, flushed the dns cache, and unchecked the "allow simultaneous downloads" box. Still no luck.
Apple's last e-mail requested I send them my account info so they could reset my password, and check my system. I'm still waiting for that to happen.
I'd appreciate any user suggestions for this problem.

Fundamentally it is an apple itunes server issue - if you have a lot of downloads the "check for downloads" request can take longer than the default windows internet connection timeout setting - which is 30 seconds on more recent versions of windows.
You can work around it though - without requiring apple to "segment" your download list, by adding a windows registry setting.
Apple re-enabled my downloads after I was burgled and then I was stuck - my "check for downloads" was always timing out - and the support guy had no clue - so I went digging, and found a a microsoft article here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/181050 which tells you how to change change that default timout value by adding a registry setting. Besides adding the ReceiveTimeout setting detailed on that page - I also changed the KeepAliveTimeout - just in case.
HKEYCURRENTUSER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ReceiveTimeout
which I set to 180000 milliseconds (3 mins)
HKEYCURRENTUSER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\KeepAliveTimeout
which I set to 181000 milliseconds (3 mins and 1 second)
Use regedit to make the change - both settings are DWORDS with decimal values. You'll need to restart your PC to apply the change.
After the change and restart and one initial failed attempt the request for downloads worked - when the apple itunes server responded after 2 minutes !!
