  • 'Cannot open file because the disk is not available' Mac

    I recently changed the selection of Photoshop (CS6) Scratch disk to the boot drive by default to one of the other internal drives in my MacPro (OS 10.6.8).

    When I restart Photoshop (CS6) I get the message:

    "Cannot open file because the disk is not available"

    and Photoshop will not start.

    I then restart Photoshop with 'Control - alt - shift' keys

    (suggestion to <http://forums.adobe.com/message/3937003>)

    and reset preferences that allows Photoshop to return.

    (Reset preferences returned the boot drive to drive work status.)

    I have an another MacPro, the - same 10.6.8 OS and Adobe CS6 - and I don't have this problem of allocation of work disk.

    What happens with a MacPro which prevents me from selecting one drive other than the boot drive working Photoshop

    Probably a permission problem.  Run the Apple disk utility to repair permissions.  If this does not work the glance to the non bootable drive and check "Ignore permissions..."  Open the window Info Finder and it came inside.

  • Elements 9 does not open "because the disk is not available.

    Hi all

    I have PSE 9 on my Mac for 18 months without any problem.

    Recently, I upgraded the boot to a larger drive that the original was running out of space. I used a standard drive, cloning tool, and all was well.

    Except... PSE now says he "cannot open file because the disk is not available" follow-up by "cannot initialize because the disk is not available.

    I uninstalled PSE and downloaded a new copy, perhaps thinking that the original has been somewhat altered by cloning. Always does the same thing.

    I have repaired permissions and restarted but still does the same thing.

    Frankly I'm perplexed.

    Anyone got any ideas? It does not even tell which disc he thinks is not available!

    Then, the conflict is with something in your user account and find what could be a lengthy process. Try to restart once more the Editor while pressing command-shift-option, keeping the keys down until you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do. This almost always solves this problem; I don't know why it is not to help you. Using 10.7?

  • "Could not initialize Photoshop because the disk is not available."?

    I've been happily turn Photoshop CS (1) on my Powermac MDD for years.

    But today, she is facing upward.  Here's the problem: I get the error message "could not initialize Photoshop because the disk is not available."

    I have studied this problem and see that it's been covered in the thread:
    http://forums.Adobe.com/thread/370672?start=0 & tstart = 0

    So I trashed preferences and the SFW prefs also.
    Now Photoshop starts... BUT as soon as I go into the preferences and assign a scratch disk, he failed once more to throw with the same error: "could not initialize Photoshop because the disk is not available."

    I tried to slide on the copies of the utility Photoshop of my backup disk files... but the same strange behavior persists.

    My Scratch disk is on a second internal hard drive.

    This all started when I had to restart from OS 9 order to use my SCSI scanner, which only has an OS9 driver.
    I used it for years with no problem... until today.

    Was it because once I saved the file in Photoshop 4 and OS9 on an OSX file that somehow the preferences got screwed up?

    Popular clues...

    work drive must be HFS +.

    also check the permissions of the property in the Infolog to get for the reader scratching. You may need to ignore permissions for this volume.

  • Cannot open the disk could not be locked the file

    Error when you try to share a drive between two virtual machines.  I have two web servers VM and a disk shared data, each web server has 20 GB for operating system disks, and they share a 500 GB drive for data.  I use clustered OCFS2 file system later.

    See the 500 GB drive, but when we turn on the two VM the second throws the following error:

    "An error was received from the ESX host turning on VM Myweb1.

    Cannot open disk ' / vmfs/volumes/MyWeb1/MWeb1.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.

    Cannot lock the file.

    I've read about this error before but can't find where and understand that it's either because I don't set them up right to start with, or that there is some extra config I can do in the s flat *.vmx file?

    Here's what we did when creating virtual machines and a shared disk, is there something missing

    Create 2 new virtual machines for Web servers with disks of 40GB of basis for the operating system and then add a new hard drive to one of the virtual machines in vSphere BUT must be correctly configured for sharing between multiple virtual machines.

    For example, to change the settings > Add > hard drive > create a new virtual disk > choose size and choose 'Thick eager disposition to zero' > under 'Virtual Device Node' choose a "SCSI (1:0)" then finish.

    Once the drive has been zero there would stay out in 'Change settings' > click new controller SCSI 1 and choose virtual disks 'Physical' can be shared between virtual machines on any server.

    Change the settings of the 2nd virtual machine and choose Add hard drive, choose existing, navigate to which you have created the VM 1 drive, make sure you assign it the same SCSI (1:0).

    Thanks a lot a lot a lot for any help in advance

    Did you also step on 2 VM below

    After the disc has been zero go back outside to 'Change settings' > click new controller SCSI 1 and choose virtual disks 'Physical' can be shared between virtual machines on any server.
