You don't have permission to open this file.

I'm trying to add an Entity Data Model to a Project in Visual Studio 2013.
When I browse to the file to connect to it says
"You don't have permission to open this file. Contact the owner or administrator for permission."
When I go back to SQL Management Studio and check the Server Roles assigned to my user name, I'm listed as a sysadmin.
I clicked ALL the other server roles for good measure, but this does not help.
When I installed SQL Server 2012 I created another user on my computer to serve as the SQL Server Services Account for SQL Server Agent and SQL Server Database Engine.
I notice that this user shows up as the database owner for the database I'm trying to connect to, even though I was logged on using my user name when I created the database.
Thanks in advance.

I don't know much about Entity Data Model, but if you get an error about lack of permission for opening a file (what file?), SQL Server is probably not the right place to look for file permissions. SQL Server is about managing data in databases, not
files in the file system. For file-permission errors, you need to look in Windows. Or try starting Visual Studio with "Run as Administrator".

"you don't have permission to open this file" when trying to attach in firefox ONLY. Works in other browsers and windows permissions are wide open.

Only a problem in Firefox. Works in IE and Chrome. I went thru support ideas of checking windows permissions (wide open and the user is the owner), starting firefox in safe mode and uninstalled/reinstalled firefox. Same problem. Any file in My Documents gives the same error, so it is not file related. Any directory under My Documents works the same. I can move files to Desktop and then they attach fine.

As mentioned in the original post, the user IS the owner and the permissions are WIDE open for the user. I have also tried to disable the anti-virus - no luck. The problem is ONLY happening in Firefox. Chrome and IE work perfect. There is also no problem in Windows. The user can add/remove/edit files in the directory. Right now the solution seems to be to use Chrome. I'm not excited about that, but at this point, the only option.

PST file import from USB Stick - Win 7 to new Laptop message "You don't have permission to open this file"

Please help!!! I am simply trying to import a 6.5GB .pst file from my pen-drive back to my new Laptop. I have tried everything, importing via Outlook, Admin profile, unlocking access in file properties but to no avail.
Anyone got any ideas? I'm using Win 7 Office 2007.

Hi,
Try taking the ownership of the file.
BTW, this is forum for Exchange Server. You can also post the question to Windows Client forum:

Error while collecting files in AE CS3 - You do not have permission to open this file (-54)

I've got a rather large project that I'm attempting to collect. 35,000+ files to collect (lots of image sequences as footage), totaling near 80GB. The collect process starts and copies files for a while, but inevitably errors out during the copy procedure with the error "You do not have permission to open this file" -- a different file each attempt.
I'd read some complaints of a similar error last year due to QT 7.4, but I'm on the current Quicktime (7.6.4).
Anyone seen this before? What can I do!? Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Well, we're just a small shop, but since it usually falls upon me to administrate, here's a few general tips:
Hide all resources that are not meant to be accessed by certain people. This can be done easily by using different sub-nets on your network and defining access privileges. Write down the network MAC addresses and use a whitelist/ blacklist. A bit of work initially, but a lot safer than working with user names.
Forget about individual user privileges. At one point or another everyone will bump into situations where they cannot access stuff, but need it for their work. Simply ramp up all users to Power User status, but assign individual groups to them which only you can manage. That leaves it up to you to define who can access what, but without having to dig so deep that you always end up with individual adjustments. You merely add or remove users from groups (which is more practical for interns and freelancers, even)
Quota can do miracles for you. If a user only has x GB of storage available, he'll quickly learn to not create redundant data by copying files.
Prevent all local storage. Artists have a tendency to offline files at whim for experimentation and then forget about it. Give them a "garbage dump" directory on the server instead where they can store their private data and any non-persistent work files, but with quota. Use server-side desktops and user home directories, if possible, but unfortunately many programs cause problems with that (including Adobe's), so it's not always an option.
For each new project, create a pre-defined folder structure. We e.g. use number_clientname_worktype_year for the root, and inside have directories for compositing, 3D stuff, print, client data etc.. Define it so from the getgo, that specific structures like project directories for 3D programs with their sub-folders for textures etc. are in place, but users cannot create additional folders. When they are forced to use existing folders, they will be much more careful in naming their files.
Define versioning rules and naming conventions. Now "siginificant milestone" is a matter of view, but I at least try to create new version files for that. So if e.g in the morning I open up a comp project and change a few things in it that take more than 10 minutes to reproduce, this is significant and a new version is safed. I don't care much for simple things like adding effects - I can reproduce them in a wee in case of crashes or data loss - but complex masking, elaborate 3D modeling, dynamics simulations etc. qualify.
Of course back up every day, at least incrementally. If following the above rules, this can be as easy as copying the project folder to an external disk.
As for the rest - simply be hard-nosed. Your artists will whine and complain for a while, but they will get used to it and eventually see the wisdom in a regulated system. It's also up to you to brief them accordingly and remind them from time to time.

After Effects error: opening movie - you do not have permission to open this file (-54)

Hi all,
I'm new to after effects. I have just started receiving the following error every time I try to render my movie:
"After Effects error: opening movie - you do not have permission to open this file (-54)".
Yesterday morning, I was able to render movies, however, after I did Apple's latest update I've started receiving the following error. What is happening is that I'm trying to render a movie. It gets to a certain point in the movie (about 0;00;16;09) and then this error pops up. This morning I've tried to repair the permissions with disk utility, but that doesn't seem to have helped.
I've searched Google and the Adobe support forums with no luck. Please help.
Thanks in advance for you help,
William

Have been able to downgrade to QT 7.3 using Pacifist. Did NOT require re-install of OS.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread...347251&tstart=0
Download the right version here:

Install with Pacifist

Now that I am back to QT7.3, iTunes7.6 is now asking me to update QT to 7.4 in order to be able to view the new movie rental feature of the iTunes store... which sorta sheds some light on the no permission error. Now that iTunes is renting, not just selling, movies, QT is now all fussy about ownership and permissions. Just a guess.

You Don't Have Permission to View This Calendar

I upgraded from Leopard Server 10.5.8 to 10.6
My site has individual blogs and a group wiki.
For some reason, I can't access my individual or group calendars.
It results in an error message saying I don't have permission to view the calendar.
I did not see an obvious way to recreate the calendar for myself or my group, or to fix the permissions.
Has anyone else seen this problem?
Thanks in advance.

I have a fresh install of 10.6 running on our internal network. Other computers in the network can find the machine. Wiki and Blogs are up and running, and I can edit them freely once I log in via the web interface.
Initially, the Web Calendar displayed the error you wrote about above... "You don't have permission to view this calendar".
After finding this thread, I changed the default IP address in the Wiki Server portion of Server Admin to what I thought was the FQDN (machinename.domain.net), but what I actually did was use ".com" instead of ".net" at the end. Oops.
After a minute, I found the error and switched .com to .net. I still get the same permissions error, but now if I'm NOT logged in as a user, and I try to access any web page, I get a dialog that reads...
To view this page, you must log in to area “/Search” on machinename.domain.net:80.
And none of the logins work. After pressing cancel it reads...
Unable to access calendar, because the Web service is configured incorrectly.
I can login through the regular login process, but that strange dialog box above will not let me login. Either way I have yet to see a web calendar working.
Any help appreciated. Thanks.

CS4 Admin "You don't have permission to edit this page"

I am new to Contribute. Created a website in Dreamweaver CS4, using templates, can put and checkin files, seems fine. FTP client has full access to all folders. Site in browser OK, Dreamweaver OK. Contribute starts and connects OK, access via FTP. I am the Admin. No lock files. For some reason Contribute won't let me edit most pages - getting error bar below Address that says "You don't have permission to edit this page". On some pages the bar is not there, but when I click on Edit Page button a dialog box pops up with the same message. I tried deleting the _mm folder and recreated the site admin info. Still no luck.
Does this sound familiar? Anyone know how to troubleshoot? Does Contribute write out debug logs? Any ideas what to try? Thanks!

A bit more info, I hope it helps. We do not use Contribute Publishing Server. In Contribute I can create a new page derived from a template and publish it. If I try to browse to that page again it says I don't have permission to edit the page. We use FTP to connect. There is only one FTP account for the website, so it's not an issue of Dreamweaver logging in differently from Contribute. My standalone FTP client is FileZilla and I cannot view folder or file permissions directly in that program.

Check to make sure that the user in question doesn't have something in their Hosts file on their desktop. Otherwise I don't see why SharePoint or the load balancer should be sending them to an Apache Unix web server when trying to resolve Office

You don't have permission to mount the file

I am trying to install
Microsoft 60-day Evaluation of Office Professional Plus 2013
I download the file but I get the error message
You don't have permission to mount the file
I have Windows 8.1
I've tried the Chat and Phone some can't help me and other don't want to help me.

Hi,
This problem may occur for one or more of the following reasons:
A USB media reader device is attached to the computer.
Removable media is mounted in the computer.
The .iso file that you are trying to mount is a sparse file.
To resolve this problem, use one of the following methods.
Resolution 1
Copy the ISO file to a new file by saving it to a different folder or giving it a different name.
This should remove the sparse attribute and enable the file to be mounted.
Resolution 2
If you have a flash media reader or any removable media, try to eject the removable media. Then, reassign the drive letters in such a manner that you leave a lower drive letter available to mount the ISO image. The file might not behave correctly if it has
an assigned drive that follows other drives.

You don't have permission to save the file "***" in the folder "Users"

I changed name of Home folder according to this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1428?viewlocale=en_US
Everything was OK, but today I switch on Aperture 3, and when I'm trying to import some pictures, I have this message: 'You don't have permission to save the file "cichy" in the folder "Users".'... "cichy" is previous name of my Home folder. Any solution, how I can fix it?

Thanks for quick answerr. Unfortunately I have OS X 10.8.4 - in article are 10 steps for OS X 10.5 or later, and 43 steops for OS X 10.4.11 and earlier... I didn't do step 28 - should I do the instructions for KeyChain?

Mount vhdx: You don't have permission to mount the file

The user has all modify permissions on the vhdx file that was created through Hyper-V. When double clicking or right-click mount the vhdx file the error message "You don't have permission to mount the file".
Which permissions should be set to mount a vhdx file?

Hi Adm1nMikeW,
Please try to use disk management --> action --> attach VHD (this way will avoid the error message).
The root cause is the attribute "nodefaultdriveletter" of the backup vhd was not set to "no".
You can try following setps :
1. in cmd prompt type diskpart
2. recognize the problematic volume you want to set via list volume
3. run command select volume "volume number"
4. run command attributes volume clear nodefaultdriveletter
then detach it and reattach the disk again .
Hope this helps
Best Regards

After QT7.4, AE error-you do not have permissions to open this file (-54)

Immediately after installing the QT 7.4 update, I have been unable to render (anything) in After Effects.
I get an error: After Effects error: opening movie - you do not have permissions to open this file (-54)
(44::53)
I have repaired permissions, downloaded the Full QT 7.4 installer, reinstalled, repaired permissions again and still the same problem. Something has changed in QT that has made AE incompatible.
Apple, please fix or offer some assistance on how to fix.
The AE forums are also beginning to fill with everyone having this same issue after an update to QT 7.4
My work has come to a halt. How do I fix this?
I can't find any info on reverting back to QT 10.3.1

"Apple, please fix or offer some assistance on how to fix."
Apple does not read these postings. These are user to user forums whereas everyday folks post questions & offer help to each other.
"How do I fix this?"
Check out Klaus1 possible solution in the following thread:

"I can't find any info on reverting back to QT 10.3.1"
You really mean 7.3.1 right?
Do an archive and install of your OS from the OS disc. Stop at the QT upgrade you need.

You do not have permissions to open this file on Excel Services.

Hi all,
I am recieving this error:
I have setup a trusted location to the document library where the Excel spreadsheet resides, and I still recieved the error. I changed the location to the entire site and I still recieve the error. I am the Sharepoint Admin, so I have full
rights to all.
I am on SharePoint 2007.
I set the location as Http://sitename/document Library name
Location type = Windows SP Services
Checked trust Children
there are no extrernal connections so I took the defaults for all other options.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
TIA,
Joe

Hi,
I understand that when you try to open an excel file in browser, you received Access Denied error. You can check the excel service settings in Central Administration like this :
Open Central Administration -> go to Operations tab. Ensure that the Excel Service is running
Open Central Administration -> go to your configured Shared Service -> click Excel Service Settings. Set File Access Method: ensure that it is not using Impersonation, instead the Option Process Account should be enabled.
Open Central Administration -> go to your configured Shared Service -> click add new trusted file location.
field URL: here you can specify a report library or the whole portal
Location Type: should be Windows SharePoint Services
Children trusted: defines whether the children should also be trusted or only the defined path
For more information, please refer to this site:

Face Recognition Error - you don't have permission to perform this task

Hi..
I bought my TOSHIBA laptop from Spain, so it would be in Spanish for sure ..
When i started the lap for the first time I tested the face recognition and other Toshiba software and they all worked .. but after two days i changed the display language to English and now i can't enter face recognition.
It tells me "You Do not have permission to perform this task. Please contact your administrator for help" ..
so what should i do ???

> don't really understand the instructions going through the CMD route
Using CMD you could enable the real Admin account but as far as I know you can uninstall the Face Recognition software in control panel -> software
Here remove the face recognition and reboot the notebook.
This should work too.
>There are 2 drivers on the Toshiba website, but the latest is from 2010, did this work for you, as it didn't for me?
It would be interesting to know the notebook model. But the latest version should work properly.
Important is that you would remove the old version from the system firstly!

TM error, "You don't have permission to acces some files"

Hi,
I recently formated my Imac uploading Tiger OS to Snow Leopard 10.6.6
After that I can't restore copies from TM.
TM says an error, something like " you don't have permissions to copy that files".
Any idea.
Thanks for help

Why install Tiger?
You still haven't said exactly what you did, but it appears you now have different user accounts than the ones you backed-up, so they don't have access to the "other" user accounts' backups.
To restore your Time Machine backups, see #14 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).

You don't have permission to open this file.
