Unable to delete applet.....

Hi all,
I am unable to delete one applet which I have loaded in the card.
There are 2 applets, one is purse and other is loyalty. And am using shareable interface in which loyalty is the server and purse is the client. I can delete the purse applet but i can't delete the loyalty from the card.
Here is my code : There are in all 3 codes, one is purse, second is loyalty code and third is the shareable interface code. Can some one look at the code and tell me what's wrong in this programs.
package com.gemplus.examples.loyalty;

public class Loyalty extends javacard.framework.Applet implements TestInterface
static byte points ;

// finally shift to Application specific offset

Thanks in advance......

Thanks. I know they are not the same thing. A package cannot be deleted if it contains one or more applets.
I tried to delete by typing in the applet AID first, but it just doesn't work. And of course it doesn't work for package AID.
Both the package and applet AID are generated in JBuilder, which looks like this, package AID(6D 79 70 61 63 6B 61 67 31),
applet AID(6D 79 70 61 63 30 30 30 31),
instance AID(6D 79 70 61 63 30 30 30 31)
I've tried those three AIDs, it's not working.
Thanks.

  • Unable to delete Address Book File

    I am unable to delete nor copy over an Address Book file that I have on an external HD connected via Airport Extreme. When I connect the HD directly to my Macbook Pro, I am able to delete the file - but not via Airport Extreme. When I attempt to delete the file, I get a message from Trash as follows: The operation cannot be completed because the item "Metadata" is in use. Same message when I attempt to replace the file with a new file. In other words, I am unable to use AE to transfer my Address Book file to my external HD, unless I change the name of the file. What is going on here?

    Hello Bob.
    You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

  • Unable to delete a file

    I'm unable to delete a a file from the filesystem.
    String fileName = "dummy.xml"
    boolean delete = (new File(fileName)).delete();It's not deleting this file from the filesystem.

    Can anything else delete that file? Is the fileopen?
    I don't know what you mean by can anything else
    delete the file.I mean can you delete the file from the command line, a window, whatever. Is it just Java's delete that is having this problem or is it the file system?
    No this is not opened/or use.How do you know?
    DO I have to specify a path for this. Certainly. How else would Java know which file to delete?
    If yes, please read on ........
    the path where this xml file resides could by
    anywhere in the file system. If it is how do I access
    it since there is no specific location (it is left to
    the user's choise to save the file anywhere he
    wants)Keep the user's choice.

  • HT4847 I am unable to delete the last backup from icloud, i checked my all device setting but it still say "cannot delete icloud this time because it is in use,"Please tell me what should i do.

    I am unable to delete the last backup from icloud, i checked my all device setting but it still say "cannot delete icloud this time because it is in use,"Please tell me what should i do                             

    It still didn't work...
    Within this commonfiles\apple folder, there is only one folder, labeled "Internet Services." Within this folder, there are 6 folders, labeled:
    APLZOD.resources
    BookmarkDAV_client.resources
    CoreDAV.resources
    iCloud.resources
    iCloudServices.resources
    ShellStreams.resources
    Within all but CoreDAV and BookmarkDAV_client, there are multiple different folders, all labeled starting with a two letter (acronym I believe, for different languages) then .lproj (for example, a folder is labeled "ar.lproj".
    In each of the folders of APLZOD.resources, there is a file labeled "APLZODlocalized.dll."
    In all of the folders containing the multiple .lproj folders, there are likewise "name"localized.dll files contained.
    In the BookmarkDAV_client and Core DAV folders, they each contain only one file, "Info.plist"
    I attempted to delete all of these files, and still, the FileAssassin could not delete them. I unlocked one of them for instance, and I tried to delete the file myself (thru windows explorer and just clicking delete), and I still had the same issue of coming eventually to the window requesting me to "try again" to have permission.
    What can I do?? I'd like to avoid Unlocker, but if it really is a reliable and SAFE program, and someone knows a SAFE place to download it from, I'd appreciate it very much so!!
    thanks!!

  • Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS: RDS Users are unable to delete files from their desktop

    Hello,
    We are working with Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS. We also implemented User Profile Disks. This is all working fine without problems. The only issue I have is that normal users are unable to delete files from their desktop. They are getting a message:
    you'll need administrator permission to delete this file, with the prompt for administrator access.
    They can edit, copy, rename, cut and paste files. But they cannot delete a file from their desktop.
    I checked the security permissions of the files on the desktop (for example a normal self-created PDF file) and the users are owner and have "Full Control" over the files.
    I checked the file permissions and took a look under "Advanced", selecting the specific domain user and checked the "Advanced Permissions" and the user has the "Delete" option checked. So he should be able to delete the
    file.
    I am guessing this is UPD related issue, or something in GPO. But I already unlinked the GPO objects, that I felt could be the source of this problem, but without results.
    Could someone give me a hint on where to look? It's kinda annoying to users, that they can't delete their own files.

    Hello Bria,
    What you should check first, is the NTFS permissions on the User Profile Disk to begin with. See if the user has full control over the items that are in the UPD.
    Also check the GPO's that are enabled for the user and computer account. You can check that by running: gpresult /h <path>\gpresult.html
    There are two GPO settings that could prevent the user from deleting his/her own items: 
    User
    Configuration\\Policies\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Windows Explorer\
    Hide these specified drives in My Computer
    Prevent access to specified drives in My
    Computer
    There might be other GPO settings, that block deleting items on the UPD, but can't think of any out of my head.
    I can only think NTFS and GPO settings that might prevent the user from deleting items. In my case it was a GPO setting, that I didn't suspect.

  • Unable to delete songs from my iPad 2

    Last night for the first time ever I had problems updating iOs (version 7.0.4) on my iPad 2. I kept getting one of several messages, for example, saying: iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes. I went through the update three times before it finally worked.
    Then I found that I had every song that I had ever purchased cluttering up -- and filling up -- my iPad. Although in the past I was able to delete either a single song or an entire album, I am now UNABLE TO DELETE ANY SONG.
    I have the iTunes setting on Manual update and have attempted to completely disconnect the disgusting iCloud feature. However, it appears that iCloud is NOT disconnected.
    I happily use the iPad 2 ONLY for a very few uses on a daily basis. I wish to control ALL my music from my iMac.
    I've been with Apple since 1984, but I'm seriously thinking of ditching this iPad 2 for a Samsung product.
    Any assistance will be appreciated.

    Somehow I got 12 songs on my ipad mini that I could not remove.
    I stumbled across a solution.  Plug in the ipad and UN-check "sync music" to remove all but the remaining unwanted song.  Find the song in your itunes library and right click these unwanted songs and RE-ADD it directly to the ipad.
    The ipad should automatically re-check "sync music" and show one song being synced.  Now manually UN-check the sync music box again and the warning will come up "are you sure...existing songs...removed".  Select remove and click the "apply" button in itunes.  Once the changes are applied, you should see the song remove itself from your ipad.
    Good luck!

  • Unable to delete files from powerpoint

    I just installed MS office for iPad. I am experiencing an annoying problem with Powerpoint. When I download and open a file from OneDrive, oftentimes I am subsequently unable to delete it from within the iPad powerpoint program. I get a message that the file cannot be deleted because it is in use. I am able to delete the file from OneDrive on my computer no problem, but it remains on the iPad. Clearing the file cache from settings does not do the trick. I have to uninstall and reinstall powerpoint to get rid of the undeletable files. Am I missing something here? Thanks.

  • Unable to delete files from encrypted external SD Card using File Commander

    I've run into some trouble trying to delete the directory com.spotify.music from my external SD Card (encrypted) after a hard reboot using the reset button next to the sim card.
    I need to do this for the Spotify app to work (FC on starting it) and I'm currently unable to delete the folder and its contents from Sony provided file explorer(FC File Commander).
    Is there a way to delete this app from adb or other command line tool or how should I go about this? Developer options are enabled because I'm learning to develop apps. Not particularly keen on rooting or otherwise format my SD Card but it's an option if there are no other ways to do it. 
    I can see the contents of my card using File Commander just fine. Spotify app is uninstalled, I tried remove cache and data before uninstall also.

    Thommo wrote:
    Are you able to delete files via your Pc or are you able to remove the card from your phone and connect it to a Pc for file deletion - There is a free program called Unlocker currently on version 1.9.2 which is excellent at deleting files that don't want to be deleted - You would install the program then right click the file and choose Unlocker and then when the program starts choose delete
    I guess he will not be able to move the SD card to the computer since it's encrypted and is working only with that particular device, but he should be able to access it via PC.
    If you can try to uninstall Spotify from your phone. I assume Spotify is not working due to some rubbish inside it's directory, but on the other hand you can't delete the folder because it may be used by Spotify. If you uninstall app folder may be unlocked.

  • Unable to delete file on NW6.5 sp8.

    I'm unable to delete a file on a NW6.5 sp8 server.
    This is only a copy, so it's not mission critical, but it's starting to frustrate the hell out of me!
    A colleague was given a helpdesk problem about a misbehaving pdf, he made a copy of the pdf in a different directory to do some testing but now finds that he cannot delete this copy!
    I've tried deleting it using Windows Explorer, Dos, Filer.Exe, Console One, and possibly one or 2 others. I get various errors but they all seem to infer that either I'm using a user who doesn't have the necessary rights (I'm using our standard admin user, so that shouldn't be the problem) or that the file is in use by others. Using the JRBUtil 'Openfile.exe', I find that the file is being used by 4 instances of my admin user.
    If I try and disconnect these instanceswith 'Openfile.exe', I get confirmation that the connections have been terminated, but I'm still not able to delete the file. If I go back to 'Openfile.exe' it tells me that the same 4 connections (same connection numbers throughout) are still in use! If I try to close the connections using the Console Monitor then it appears to close the connections, they disappear from the list and if I re-check then they are still not visible, but if I go back to 'Openfile.exe' then it reports that the connections are still current! I've tried using iManage to close the connections, but with no success!
    The server in question is our main data server so the chances of rebooting it just because it 'may' fix this problem is unlikely to happen.
    Again it's only a copy and not mission critical, but it would be good to find an answer to this. So, is there a command or utility that will just delete a file when asked?
    Many thanks
    Ian.

    If the server thinks the file is open / locked, you will not be able to

    volume, which should force the OS to close the file.
    David
    I think that it is this open / locked issue that is causing the problem. The idea of dismounting the volume sounds like a less brutal version of my original idea of having to reboot the server to clear the connections.
    However, as I said to Tom above, I've got to try and get this past the server admin, and as this is only a copy on our main data server which is in constant use, I'm not sure that I'll get permission to try this. Unfortunately I think that I may have to accept that I'll have to wait until the server is taken down for a more important reason. Frustrating, but that's life.
    So, thanks to all who replied and for the suggestions. I'll certainly log them for future use, so if nothing else this has been a good learning experience for me.

  • "unable to delete" file on 6267

    I have a Nokia 6267 S40 phone made for Malaysia and I am in the US.
    I’ve got a file that I cannot delete from the phone memory (no mem card) which seems to be causing problems in other applications. It is a downloaded video file with the extension .3gp.
    When I try to delete it, I get the message “unable to delete” or if I mark it and I try to “delete marked” I get the message “item being used by another application”.
    When I try to open the file, the phone locks up, then I have to remove the battery.
    I am unable to rename the file, I get the message: “unable to rename”.
    If I try to move the file and get message “file in use, unable to move”.
    Sometimes I cannot even open the “gallery,” and get the message “file system is busy”
    Other problems:
    Cannot access the internet, the phone tries, but does not get past “processing data” then if I try to exit, phone locks up.
    Cannot open any applications, however I can open the folders
    Calculator will not open
    Games will not open
    Cannot save a note, will edit but not save, phone locks up if I try to save, same happens with the calander.
    I’ve tried restoring the factory settings, both “settings only” and “restore all.” In both instances this message appears, “Restoring settings. Please wait.” And I wait and wait and wait…and then I remove the battery and try something else.
    The only way I seem to be able to do anything with this particular file is if I am able to open the “gallery,” highlight the file, select options, select use video clip--as contact video then go into that contact and choose to edit—then I can view the video.
    I have tried using PC Suite also, with the same results. When I try to delete from file manager I get this error: “Operation failed. A file or folder you are trying to delete, rename, move or copy is protected from access.”
    Please help.

    It seems that this file got corrupted. An advice: never download and save files into the cellfone memory. Save them in the memory card to avoid these problems.
    If there is a nokia care centre in the USA, better take it now. Or try to upgrade (not a sure thing that fix the problem)

  • Unable to delete emails from care4free using thunderbird

    I have just bought an imac and have transfered my thunderbird account from my old pc. I am unable to delete messages from my care4free POP account. Anyone help with this please?

    Problems associated with deleting or moving email usually stem from failure to compact mail
    folders, especially inboxes. This is because deleted email is not removed from the
    application until you compact (expunge is the technical term). This can be done
    automatically by a setting in your email account. Manually is simple enough. On any mail
    folder do this: right click/compact (or File/Compact Folders). This is especially important
    on inboxes but also, any folder from which you regularly delete/move email.
    If you are experiencing problems you probably have a lot of uncompacted mail so be patient
    the first time and watch the activity bar for its status (at the bottom of the application).

  • Unable to delete photo from ipad

    When I first got my ipad, I synced s photo from My Pictures.  I am unable to delete it from the ipad by using the delete option.  How do I get it off my ipad?

    Go to the folder on your computer that those synced photos are in. Move those photos elsewhere then sync and the photos will go away.
    Alternatively you can connect your device to your computer and open iTunes. Click on the name of your device and navigate to the photos tab. Choose a different folder or deselect any folder then sync. Your device will replace the photos on your device with what's in that other folder, or simply remove them all together if you deselect all photos syncing.
    Given the difficulty of removing synced photos, I stopped syncing photos a long time ago. Instead if I want photos on my iPad I'll just mail them to myself...or you can use any number of photos apps that have the ability to sync/share data, or upload them to something like dropbox and then download them onto your device. Downloaded or saved photos can be deleted from inside the photos app.
