When trying to edit metadata, I get an error "This property cannot be modified."

I took some photos with my iPhone 4, copied them to my desktop, and now I want to remove the GPS metadata from a few of them.
I tried to remove the properties directly in Windows 7,  but I get an error saying "An error occurred when writing the property 'Latitude' to the file 'filename'."
So I decided to try it in Bridge CS5. I selected the photo, went to the metadata panel, double clicked the location under Latitude, and I get an error saying "This property cannot be modified."
Thank you for your help!

According to Adobe staff  (see link http://forums.adobe.com/thread/830277?tstart=0) the GPS data format in Bridge is based on Adobe
Extensible Metadata Platform(XMP) standard.  The only supported format is GPS format
dd,mm.mmmmW. 
Have never used this so not sure what mmmmW represents.

  • When trying to open iphoto I get the error message "You can't open the application iPhoto because it may be damaged or incomplete." How do I fix this and get my photo's back?

    When trying to open iphoto I get the error message "You can't open the application iPhoto because it may be damaged or incomplete." How do I fix this and get my photo's back?

    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • When trying to install iTunes, I get the error 7 (windows error 126)

    When trying to install iTunes, I get the error 7 (windows error 126)

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

    Hello Michwilltwo,
    It sounds like you are unble to open iTunes after a recent update. I would recommend the troubleshooting steps from the article named:
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    "Runtime Error: R6034 - An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly"
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    Be sure to follow the instructions as outlined by the links in the article as there is a specific order in which to uninstall iTunes and its associated programs.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • When trying to launch ITunes I get an error message saying that application fail to start because MSVCR80.dll file not found. Reinstalling app may fix problem.

    When trying to launch ITunes I get an error message saying that application fail to start because MSVCR80.dll file not found. Reinstalling app may fix problem.

    I've just (finally) managed to fix this problem today. I checked the Apple Support forums, and it seems a lot of people are having the same problem.
    I rang the Apple Support line, and the very helpful man (thanks Alan!) talked me through it stage by stage. If you go to the following page on the internet: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376   it takes you through the process. WARNING - it takes a little time!
    Basically, the first thing you have to do is go to your Program Files and double click on your iTunes folder. There'll be a number of files with the suffix .dll - you need to move all the .dll files from that folder to your desktop - you can simply click and drag them on the desktop..
    Next, uninstall iTunes - go to Control Panel / Add/Rempve Programs and when the list comes up remove iTunes. This will take a few minutes... Then reboot your computer.
    Next, go back to Control Panel / Add Remove and Remove - IN THIS ORDER -
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot again!
    Next, check in your Program Files that the iTunes folder is completely gone - if it has, great: if it hasn't, right-click on the folder and press Shift and Delete - it will say "Are you sure you want to completely remove the folder "iTunes"? Click on "Yes".
    Reboot!
    Then go to the iTunes download page and voila! It should download iTunes without any problems... well it did for me.... Good luck!

    Also I now can`t access any of my itunes library and am concerned that if I remove it from my computer I will lose everything as I have no option of accessing and therefore backing anything up. Any ideas?

  • When updating withhold tax window error---"This Property Cannot be Updated"

    Dear All,
    We have upgraded SAP 8.8 PL14 from SAP 2007B. With respect to TDS, we have upgraded based on the TDS Utiltiy Upgrade. Everything upgraded Properly. But, when we try to edit or change on Withholding tax definition or TDS account, an error is coming "This Property Cannot be Updated". Becoz of this we are not able to continue the entry on Particular Section. We are not able to add new WH Code also, since the same error is coming.
    Pl help and sugges how to solve this.
    Thanks.
    Komanduri

    DEAR
    if u still face teh error then i would request you to please raise a support ticket for ant Case related to TDS as that would be supported by sap only however the other way around but that would not be correct is to make a new WT code with the differnt code but by doing this when the user would sit down for reconciliation he would not be able to do so as the error would be somewhat "cannot use two WT code category

  • When Trying to download products, I get internal error

    When I try to download any of the products, I receive a message that I need to first install the Adobe Applications Manager. When I download that (which it seems to do instantly), I get this error: We've encountered the following issues: Plese connect to the Internet".
    Of course, I am already connected to the internet. I tried disabling my firewall and still get the error.

    Hi Debbie,
    I wouldn't think that Acrobat X is related, you'll get errors through Adobe Application Manager if you attempt to install it without uninstalling the prior installation first with Acrobat specifically but shouldn't affect the other products.
    Might test in a new admin user also.
    I'm moving this thread over to our download/installation forum.
