What does the message mean time capsule already in use when it refueses to backup?

Just the network is cranky..
Simple first step.. restart the TC.. ie unplug the power cord.. count to 10.. plug it back in.
Second step if that fails.. restart the network.. off everything.. restart in order.. modem.. TC.. clients 2min gap.
Finally if you are prepared to fight you can load 5.6 utility onto Mountain Lion and do a disconnect all users.. or a few other ways.. turn off file sharing and turn it back on.
The issue being TM did not dismount the sparsebundle correctly.

What does the message mean?

Thanks always, Marvel.
I tried to create a region which is SQL Query (Pl/Sql Function Body returning Sql Query). The query itself is fine, successfully finished and the result is displayed, but with the message as follows:-
===
failed to parse SQL query:
The query can not be parsed, the cursor is not yet open or a function returning a SQL query returned without a value.
===
No error encountered when I try to perform the query on sql*plus.
Any ideas to remove the message?
Thanks in advance,
Rui

after checking with our reports guy, here's what i got:
pretty much the only way to get that error from a report region is if the pl/sql that's supposed to return the sql query is returning a null. your posting makes it sound as if your page actually shows the results of the query, though, so i'm a little unsure. can we try this:
1) if your report page isn't showing report results and is just showing the error you mentioned, please confirm that your pl/sql is, in fact, returning a sql query. one easy way to do this is to drop your pl/sql query source into a pl/sql region on the same page and make it HTP.P your query rather than RETURN the value.
2) if you do see the results of your query and then the error message you described, is it possible that you have another report region on that page that's returning the message? if so, could you try to troubleshoot that region as i suggested above in check #1, please.
3) if neither 1 nor 2 work for you, please do send your instance connect info to [email protected], and we'll take a closer look.
thanks,

What does the message mean when firefox says something is trying to get it unsecurely update itself

A few times per week I get a message that says something is trying to update Firefox unsecurely . It tell me to make sure that I am running the most current version of Firefox. I don't understand who or what is trying to do this or more importantly why.

You can check for problems with preferences.
Rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default value.

Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 24: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

I received a message that:" Unable to complete backup. Time Capsule already in use" when backup is attempted. When trying to access Time Machine when this occcurs, The message is" sparse image temporarily unavailable". Why does this happen? How can fix it without erasing the who;e image and starting all over?
I have Mac OS Mountain Lion.

You might need to if the bundle is damaged.
You can verify the bundle.
Read A5 here http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
Also try C12 and C17
Just a reboot of the TC might get it working again.

The only other thing I can think of since this problem has to do with downloading on 3G is that the signal strength isn't good enough. Try a reset on the device, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and release. Once the phone restarts see if you can get it done. If not, you might want to check with iTunes support and see if they see anything wrong with your account.
Have you tried downloading on wifi? Does this work? Have you checked in iTunes for available downloads to try and get what you have cleared to start over?

What does this message mean? : "The file name "DSC_0088.jpg" is offline or missing." ?

What does this message mean? : "The file name "DSC_0088.jpg" is offline or missing." I am in the process of importing photos from iPhoto (don't really know what I'm doing....) and when I look at one of the imported photos that message pops up. I know what "DSC_0088.jpg" is. I don't know what it means that the file is "missing".

CASpyr,
Thank you so much for your reply. I have a couple of bigger issues that I am dealing with: too many photos on my laptop: 40,000! (Of course I have to throw away many of them, but that is time consuming). I have a MacBook Pro and have primarily used IPhoto. I have recently purchased 2 external drives and have transferred my photos to those, but I need a basic education about how photos are stored, copied, etc. I have recently been told that iPhoto only shows and deals with jpegs, not RAW. About 1/3 of my photos are RAW, so I purchased Lightroom, so I could do more with those RAW photos. I have been told by my local Mac store that I need to delete most of my photos from iPhoto, because it's causing problems. I am reluctant to do so until I am sure that all of the keywords, descriptions and editing I have done to these photos is not lost when deleted from iPhoto. I just watched a tutorial about importing to Lightroom and got out of it that I needed to copy photos from iPhoto to a file on my desktop and then copy to Lightroom. I did that, it seemed to work. Then (because of my storage/memory issues) I deleted the photos (just a few as an experiment) from that desktop file. I'm guessing that is why Lightroom doesn't recognize the the photos. It seems that (learned from another tutorial) that one uses "Add" , Lightroom is only connecting to the source of the photo, not actually copying it to the program. Sounds like I need to use the "Move" feature instead. My ultimate goal is to store the photos on the 2 external drives and eliminate most of them from my lapop. So my basic questions have to do with what data (metadata??) is copied from iPhoto to an external drive (RAW???) and what isn't copied. Basic understanding issues,obviously…. I hope this isn't too much to ask. If you can recommend a book or resource that can explain those basic issues to me I'd appreciate it. I just got back from a trip and I can't download my new photos until I manage the rest!
Thanks,
Nancy

What does this message mean - The operation can't be completed because the item "12b" is in use.

The operation can’t be completed because the item “12b” is in use. What does this message mean. It appeared as I was attempting to clear my time machine backup?

Reboot your machine make sure Aperture doesn't start (as Lion is liable to do) and try it.

What does the message "Another program has control of HP imaging device mean"? I get this when I am trying to scan.

What does the message "another program ha control of HP imaging mean when I am trying to scan something. How do i correct it?

You may need to ask HP. I had the same issue with a networked (via ethernet) home HP multi-function. Sometimes the only way to get it to scan was to completely disconnect it from the network and connect it to only one Mac with a USB cable. Even that did not alwatys work.
Eventually, Apple started pushing out HP printer updates via Software Update. One of those finally made that error message to go away.
So run Software Update and see it there are new drivers that Apple made avaialble.

What does the message "No Editor " mean ?

What does the message "No Editor" mean?

Okay - the message means that the system knows of no editor (program) to use to view these files.
Since I gather you recently upgrade to Mavericks from Snow Leopare (you might want to update your profile), I am guessing these movies are in the file format for a program that no longer runs on Mavericks (or is not installed).
It is possible that you can change the "kind" ie. the file format extension, to one that the system recognizes, and have it open these files with another program. You will have to experiment to see what works.

Welcome!
You have installed Trusteer's Rapport software that many banks recommend, unware that it is poison to Safari. The developer keeps working on it but, so far, we don't seem to have a stable version that doesn't cause more problems than it fixes.

From what I found LiveScript is the precursor of JavaScript, if this means anything in your context. Do you have JavaScript enabled? You might see this discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/message/6447836#6447836.

Make sure that no other Macs are backing up at the current time
Pull the power cord from the back of the Time Capsule
Wait 10 seconds
Plug the power cord back into the back of the Time Capsule
This simple reset will fix this issue 98% of the time. If you happen to be in the unlucky 2% category, post back and we'll provide more information.

I can't connect to the drive on my airport time machine and am receiving the message: "AirPort Time Capsule" can't be opened because the original item can't be found.

Time capsule has been working perfectly for months.
Suddenly I can't connect to the drive on my airport time capsule and am receiving the message: “AirPort Time Capsule” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found.
Time machine appears to be still backing up (last backup within the last hour), but drive is not visible and I have files stored on it.
I have tried rebooting everything in order as suggested for other issues, anyone got any ideas how to see the drive again??

What OS are you running??
It is very typical Yosemite issue.
1. In airport utility does the TC show up.. if so click it.. and see the summary page which will include its IP address. That is what you are after.
From my screenshot you can see the TC address is 192.168.2.57
It might well show up briefly after a reboot or in ipad / iphone version utility. Yosemite is hopeless. The airport utility hardly works.
2. In Finder use Go, Connect to server.
Type in SMB://192.168.2.57 (replace with IP you discover).
If it is possible it will request a password.. type that in and DO NOT FORGET.. to store it in your keychain.
This will work until the TC changes IP which won't happen if it is main router.. but will happen if it is bridged.. so you need to tell me the whole network setup.
Mavericks is nearly as bad and the above instructions should be universal except I would use AFP instead of SMB. Apparently Yosemite is now totally Windows oriented.
