Unable to unlock tag; causes error and crash!

I am running InDesign CS3 and newly installed OSX 10.6.4 on a GS5 Quad-Core Intel.
I'm having difficulties with a multipage file that I created and tagged. It has produced an error message during packaging. And if I continue to package the file for print (which it will let me do) and then try to open the newly packaged file, InDesign crashes with the following message:
"Cannot modify elements that contain locked content, or are contained by  locked content. Please unlock or check out the content and try again."
Here's the curious part:  I happened to notice that one of the tags in the "Structure" panel seems to point to content in my document that does not really exist. In other words, I double click on the tag and a box is highlighted in the actual document; yet, the box does not highlight with either selection tool, directly. Additionally,  there is no indication that the "content" there is locked, so I'm not given the option to unlock either the content or the mysterious tag, which I would like to delete.
I've never had a problem like this until recently, which leads me to suspect that my new operating system is not speaking to the CS3 version of InDesign!
Has anyone encountered this before?
Is there a work around? Or, am I doomed to scrap my very complex and otherwise completed document and rebuild the whole thing????
Any insights on this would be greatly appreciated!

I was not able to unlock or delete the errant tag; however, saving an .Inx version seemed to eliminate the problem of crashing and the error disappeared. Good enough for my purposes!
Now, I can proceed with my print deadline.
Thanks a lot!

    hi i used to have O2 pay monthly contract but it ended in September 2012, since the contract expired I keep requesting O2 to unlock my iphone4. But they keep saying we are unable to unlock because of error. This is going on for 2 years. O2 keep saying they retrying and nothing happening. I am frustrated. How to unlock my phone? Can Apple help me?

    No Apple cannot and this is a User to User forum ,no Apple staff here
    As the carrier that locked the iPhone ,O2 are the only organisation that can unlock the iPhone
    That said they are the most co-operative of all UK carriers with unlocking
    Have you actually asked what the issue is and filled in their request form
    and are you still located in UK ,if not that will be the issue

  • Reports Background Engine caused error and had to be closed

    "Reports Background Engine caused error and had to be closed"
    we are encountering this error when trying to run any report on some machines.with windows 2000.
    we tried to login (on the machines having problems) using another windows user,
    sometimes it works and sometimes not.
    we also tried to reinstall the reports runtime and it never worked.
    we have developer 6i, Oracle database 10g express edition.
    Does anyone have a solution to this random problem ?
    Thanks

    dear all
    you can pass parameter from form to report to close report server after close report
    add_parameter(pl_id, 'oracle_shutdown',text_parameter, 'Yes');
    then it will be ok
    good luck

  • Conditional Build Tags cause RH9 AIRHelp crash

    I have seen multiple posts about system crashes when using RoboHelp HTML and conditional build tags.  Is anyone having the same problem using build tags with RH9 and AIR Help output?  I have tried different combinations of build tags, a single build tag, as well as different project topics.  All cause RoboHelp 9 to crash when generating AIR Help.  Any suggestions?  Is this a reported bug?

    Hi there, this sounds somewhat like the issue I have with generating WebHelp, which I've posted here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3813225#3813225
    I can't seem to find other posts that relate to this, and you mentioned other posts at the start of yours. Can you reply with links? I would appreciate your time.

  • Error and crash when importing

    Hi,
    Just curious if anyone else have had this issue, or can help
    resolve.
    Whenever I select "Import to Library..." or "Import to
    Stage..." the application crashes. It never brings up the dialog to
    select files. I get the generic windows error, something like
    "Flash CS3 has encounter and error and must close".
    I have already tried re-installing.

    Thanks for the reply!
    The audio source is a 24-second long MP3 at 265kbps.
    I've tried rendering with default losseless avi without sound, which still crashed and gave the second error message.
    Other times, I've tried H.264 MP4 with and without sound at the original resolution of the comp (1920x1080) as well as resized at 1280x720. I didn't change any settings besides Format, Resize, and Audio Output. Even when trying to render under the Quicktime format for .mov files, without sound, I crashed (though this time I got the first error message.)
    I've tried rendering different segments and the entire comp, too; every attempt after the first render failure has crashed and either given me both error messages described above or only the second error message.
    Rendering with the audio file disabled in the comp has worked at Lossless .avi default settings with audio disabled. I tried changing the Format just to H.264 MP4 and the render failed, giving me the first error message even though the audio file was muted in the comp and audio was disabled in the render settings.
    Also, this project and the sound file has rendered just fine on any format I had (used H.264 MP3 and Quicktime MOV) only a few hours ago. I don't know of anything that could have changed that caused all of these errors.
    Thank you so much for the help, haha...

  • RoboHelp 9 gives an out of memory error and crashes when I try to import or link a Frame 10 file or

    I have Tech Suite 3. If I start a new RoboHelp project and try to import or link Frame files, RoboHelp tries for a while, then I get an Out of Memory error and the program crashes.
    I opened one of the sample projects and was able to link to one of my frame files without any problem, so it seems to be an issue with creating something new.
    Any suggestions?

    It happens when I create a new project and then try to import or link frame docs to make up the content. It starts scanning, then crashes. I did get it to the conversion setting page once, but no further.
    It does not happen if I open one of the supplied example projects and link a file. But then it doesn't let me choose, during import, any style mapping. And I can't delete the sample project fold
    Twice now it has told me when I tried to import (not link, but import) that my .fm file could not be opened, and told me to verify that Frame is installed (it is) and that the file is a valid frame file (it is).
    The docs and project are in separate folders on my C: drive.

  • Error and crash upon saving

    Hi,
    I am experiencing an issue very similar to the one described in (http://forums.adobe.com/message/243559#243559). I have several RH projects that have started crashing/closing when I save changes. The projects are all several years old, of varying sizes (15-200 topics), and were converted when I upgraded to RH 8 last fall. Initially, I had some trouble with the conversions, but attributed it to working with a trial version of the software while waiting for the company purchase of the full license. After receiving the license code and installing the available patches, the projects seemed to function fine for close to a month before this started happening.
    Other information:
    ·        I am using: Windows XP Professional SP3, Intel T2500 @ 2.00GHz, 2.00 GB RAM, RH 8.0.2.208. (RH HTML)
    ·        I archive files on a network drive, but work on all projects on a local drive.
    ·        The projects are not under source control.
    ·        I do not have this issue when working with the RH CCC sample project.
    I tried deleting the .cpd file before opening the project. The project still crashes upon changing and saving any topic.
    I created a new project and imported some topic files. The project worked fine until I closed and re-opened it. Then, the project returns to crashing upon saving. I tried this several times with exactly the same result.
    I don’t understand how this is related, but the only success I’ve had is deleting a line of HTML from the topics that references a javascript. If I remove the following line from a topic (save and crash the project) and then re-open the project (the change removing the line of code does save), I can then successfully save changes in that topic without crashing RH.
    <script language="javascript" src="writetitle.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    I have been able to repeat these results with multiple topics. If I put the line back in, the project crashes upon saving – take it back out and I can save changes to that topic again. I can close and re-open the project and it performs the same.
    The code is used in conjunction with a master template that contains a feedback form. The project crashes upon saving whether or not the topic is not using that template.
    I hate to simply remove this line of code since I don’t really understand how or if that is fixing the problem and because that is what lets me know which topic any feedback is pertaining to. Thanks for any help.
    TNSdoc2

    I don't know javascript from HTML. Here is what has worked for me. I open the Broken Links dialog. I open a listed topic using the Edit button. I find and fix the broken link. I save the topic. RH8 crashes. I jump to my open RoboSource screen and check in the topic that just crashed. When I reopen the RH8 project, the link generally shows as fixed and I can move on to the next.
    In the event the check in function failed, RH8 displays a dialog asking whether I want to leave or replace the local topic from RoboSource. I have found that using the Merge button has resolved the issue so that the project remains active and the link is repaired.

  • IPhone 5 panorama causes freeze and crash

    So basically every time I use panorama on my iPhone 5 it freezes and crashes. Restart using both off and home buttons, and it goes on. Apple please fix ios6 on iPhone 5, my iPhone 4S is fine.

    I have this same freezing problem, and it occurs in diverse apps as well as in the iPhone settings themselves.
    I notice MANY complaints in the Apple Support Communities about this same freezing problem on iPhone 5s running IOS 6.01 and even the brand new 6.02. The standard response from the "experts" in the support community here -- to reboot or restore the iphone (or visit the apple store or call Apple Care) -- rather misses the point, in my opinion. So many iphone 5 users should not be having the same exact problem!
    Instead of band-aid replies to reboot and restore or get Apple tech support involved, we need an actual lasting fix to this systemic problem, so the freezing stops happening for all of us.
    The real question is this: What explains this  too-common freezing problem on iPhone 5 running IOS 6x?
    I believe that Apple has screwed up, plain and simple, by putting out a device and OS that has not yet been properly vetted. Seems that Apple has been doing this a lot lately (e.g., OS7x Lion, the Apple Maps app), and I suspect this is an internal Apple culture issue -- a pushback against the perfectionism of the late Steve Jobs, perhaps. If so, that's too bad for us devoted Apple product users as well as Apple's investors, quite honestly. Apple Corporation itself needs to reboot and restore its "insanely great" standard of excellence!
    Meanwhile, I am still looking for a reliable and permanent way to stop my brand new iPhone 5 from freezing constantly.

  • OOP unknown VI error and crash

    I'm attempting to use the OOP capability in LabView 8.20 for the first time. In my class I have a main VI that calls several dynamic member VIs of the class. This appeared to work fine when I first created the class and its subVIs. I attempted to inherrit a new class from the original one. Now whever I load the parent classes main VI, it shows a broken run error and X by the VIs name in the error window. However it lists 0 errors. One of the dynamic VIs it calls has been replaced by the unknown VI questionmark icon. If I replace the unknown with the correct VI it appears ok but LabView performs a GPF when I try to save or run the VI.
    Has anyone else encountered a problem like this or does anyone know a way around it?

    This is a common problem with LabVIEW OOP. The issue happens because the compilation process fails to update all the VIs in the project when change in the code occurs that affects multiple VIs. If you already are in a state where you have VIs with question mark, you need to manually replace them with the correct VI.
    To avoid the issue later on, do the following:
    1) upgrade to LabVIEW 8.2.1, LV 8.20 is not mature enough for LabVIEW OOP development
    2) Keep your files backed up so that you have backups for at least a few versions that have worked. Using version control software such as TortoiseSVN is a good idea.
    3) Use Ctrl + Shit + Run on any VI to force LabVIEW to compile all files in memory. Before you do this, open all VIs outside the classes in your project. After forcing compiling save all.
    4) Remember that you need to keep all your class hierarchy in memory during development. This means that you need to have ancestor classes in your project in addition to the classes you
        use directly
    I try to cover these issues in more detail in my object-oriented programming article series on my blog at Expressionflow in future.

  • Labview 8.5 produces an error and crashes while loading

    Hello,

    Hello,
         My research lab previously used Labview 7 Express.  Recently my university purchased a site license for Labview and I am in the process of upgrading to 8.5 on several XP machines.  So far everything has gone well (all machines with no IO capabilities) except for one machine.  This machine is our primary acquisition machine and contains 3 NI DAQ boards as well as a GPIB board.  After "sucessfully installing" Labview 8.5, I go to load Labview directly (not opening a specific VI, after rebooting) and it produces an error and asks to send the error to Microsoft (etc).  I'm wondering if this may be something specific to this machine or if anyone else has had this issue?
         Other points to note, I have not installed the device drivers for 8.5 yet which may be a problem.  Also, I noticed that Labview 7 had a few bugs that were not present in other installations of Labview 7 (on different machines), which may be a problem with the specific machine.  I'm avoiding uninstalling both versions of Labview for compatibility reasons, however this may be an option.  Thanks!

  • Draft e-mail error - "APPEND" causes multiple errors and crash

    I had a draft e-mail prior to installing Leopard. After Leopard installed I opened Mail back up and received an error about a draft e-mail and it had to "APPEND". It regenerates the same error 4 or 5 times in a row and then crashes Mail.
    I've gone into my mail account via Webmail and deleted the Draft e-mail. There are no drafts on the server, but the Mail app keeps trying to grab it.
    I've turned off Mailbox Behaviors regarding Trash as this is the only thing I could find near my problem. I will try to grab a screen capture if necessary.

    I bumped into the same bug. For some reason(*) Mail couldn't perform some action and was trying to recover by saving a local copy, then complained with the same error message multiple times. It would consistently crash after repeating it about 3/5 times, or even faster if I hit enter instead of just clicking the alert window.
    I had to reset Mail completely (manually renaming my Mail folder and Mail preferences to keep a backup, because the "reset and relaunch" feature would not reset Mail at all) then recreating each account manually one by one. Tedious work .
    (*) The reason is that Mail 3 in Leopard has a +big issue+ connecting via SSL to more than two accounts on the same IMAP server. With 4 accounts I keep getting SSL connection errors than I never saw with Mail 2.

  • Groupwise 8.0.2 error and crashing

    Hello all,
    I'm having a problem with groupwise and I can use some advice. A user of mine is having an issue when she composes new mail she switches from plain text view to HTML view and GW either crashes or it freezes, and a error message appears. I thought it was a local profile issue so I re created the profile and it still didnt fix it. In addition I upgraded from GW 7 to GW 8 and the issue still remains. This is an XP machine. I only happnes on thius machine, I tried another XP machine right next to it and it switched views from plain to HTML no problem. Im not sure if the user tinkered with some settings or what.

    Hey Laura and Bob,
    For some reason that is grayed out. Im logged on as my administrator account and its still grayed out. My next step was to be logged as Administrator as in with the username administrator. I actually got it working now thanks for your help guys. I did the reinstall and I uninstalled additional browsers like chrome, safari and firefox. I will add them back when Im with the user after she sees it working again. I also disabled all the toolbars and add on (like snag it) in IE.
    I'm so glad I came to this forums for ideas. Waiting for the guy that supports groupwise for my hospital would have been a lost cause. I'll be coming here for my groupwise issues from now on.....THANKS AGAIN GUYS!!!!!
