InDesign Lock files appear before opening file

At least it's the only thing I can think of what is happening. After update InDesign CC 2014 I only worked on a single file. The file is located on the documents of my supervisor, so I go from there. Lately when I try to open the locking file file appears before the file is actually opened, and then InDesign tells me that the file is in use. It is the only file that has this problem, all of the InDesign files on his documents. He became quite disruptive, being the only solution we found to him close his current projects and restart the computer, then I restart my computer and everything is going well. Mid-afternoon if I closed the file we do the same thing. InDesign also ran a bit on the lazy side. Has anyone else had this problem and found a workaround or someone has possible ideas about what is happening. Yet once, I don't think that it's the network because it is the only file that is having this problem, and he started only since the last update. Thank you!

  • Double-click to open a Word or Excel file crashes just for centuries before opening it later.

    Recently, by double clicking on a file name to open a Word or Excel file, my PC crashes just for centuries before opening it later. Text files, PDF, jpg files and other open immediately, no problem. I have not changed the Word/Excel software recently and the extensions.doc/.xls file are correctly associated with programs. Why don't double-click work properly?

    Open Word/Excel and then use the file - dialog box open to open a file.

  • Cannot perform action locks file is opened in Microsoft Office Excel

    I am trying to remove an addin in the add-in file and I get an error message that the file is open in Excel.    There is no open excel file.    The add-in does not work when there is an open excel file.   I suspect that there is a problem with the add-in because there is a copy of the file with a ~ in front of the name.  I would remove both copies and replace the add-in with a new copy, but I get an error message "Could not perform the action locks file is opened in Microsoft Office Excel".

  • PC crashed during 6 start Lightroom. Now open habit. Can not find the lock file

    Hello.

    My PC stops inexplicably while Lightroom 6 began and then just rebooted. (Windows 7 i7 PC)

    Now Lightroom does not start and a "Catalog Adobe" said dialog box could not be opened because another application has already opened it.

    A quick search on the internet said the locking file must delete, but I'm not. An Adobe help page shows me:[username]\Pictures\Lightroom\Lightroom 5 Catalog.lrcat.lock C:\Users\

    First of all, I'm on LR6 and my start up programs are on a small SSD. So if I navigate on this hard drive, then program file Adobe\Adobe Lightroom I see many files, then a may list files. None gives me a clue to what is a lock file or look like lrcat.lock.

    I'm not very savy on a PC and would be grateful of urgent assistance. I tried to uninstall the program and then reinstall, but in vain.

    Thank you very much.

    Hi andys62004617,

    lock file is located in the exact location as well as your catalog.

    Search under Pictures\Lightroom\ Catalog.lock of Lightroom and delete (do not remove the .lrcat files because it's your main catalog)

  • InDesign CC files try to open in CS6

    The title explains it well enough. I have two versions installed on my computer (Windows 8.1) to ensure compatibility. When I try to open my Indesign CC files, it attempts to use CS6 (and fails of course). I tried "open with...". "and selecting Indesign CC, but it always opens in CS6. How can I get this right? Ideally I would CC files to open in CC and CS6 in CS6.

    Thanks in advance.

  • PRE7: problem of proportions even before opening the source media files

    Hello

    I am a newbie in Premiere Elements. Read a lot of discussions with problems of proportions, but found no problem similar to mine, so decided to open a new discussion.

    I'm shooting video camcorder Samsung HMX-H105 SSD, in 16:9 widescreen HD video.

    When I try to create a DVD from the camcorder MP4 file, it gets asymmetrical even before opening it, when you see in the right pane with the view of the media files. I don't know if anyone can understand what I'm trying to say so I have a screen shot of a video I shot with my camera and a video I downloaded, photographed by someone else with Samsung HMX - H20 in 16:9 HD as well.

    Then, even when I always start a new project in 4:3 and 16:9 my videos is not stretched. That's why I think that maybe first Elements does not understand the format of my MP4 video files - it can be seen in the left pane, where I circled (with white elipse) black stripes above and below the video.

    Hope someone can help with my problem.

    I could not find any records on the Samsung website to indicate it as a real camcorder AVCHD (even if it's the video uses a form of the H.264 codec).

    If this isn't an AVCHD camcorder, you will probably be able to edit video natively in Premiere Elements. Or, if you can, you will need to re - interpret the film to the big screen.

    First make sure that your project uses the AVCHD project setting. Then, if your video is looking "stretched" with the right button on the clips and select the option to interpret the film and select a setting that gives you a correct display.

    This will probably be a very intensive format, so I recommend to work on your project in short pieces you want, then save them often! (You also need a considerably fast computer with plenty of RAM).

  • Search engines not available, except in mode "Run as Administrator". delete the parent.lock file profiles did not help

    After the upgrade to 21 FF, search engines no longer appear in the bar at the top right of the screen, so no searches are possible. I can navigate to my favorites and apparently also to the links contained in the e-mails.

    If I right click on the FF icon and choose the "Run as Administrator" option, the search engines are there again. I tried to delete the parent.lock in the profiles folder, that this solution was solved a problem I've had recently with the previous version of FF (not being not able to open FF and getting the error message on another version of it running, which had to be closed in the first place - but there was no other version running.) In this case, too, before I discovered the solution, I could open FF using the option "Run as Administrator"). However deleting the parent.lock file does not resolve this issue.

    I would be grateful for your help, especially if a person not very computer like me can understand put in simple terms!

  • Remove the "lock" file sharing icon

    I shared a folder on my desktop (Win 7) with the laptop (Win Vista) through a router. Now I want to remove the right click on the folder share > share > advance sharing > remove 'everyone' from the list. But a lock icon appears on the record (I think it means that nobody can be shared with this folder). How can I delete the icon as usual before "locking"?.

    Yes, the padlock icon means that the folder is private nothing for you to see.  To avoid cluttering up the complete file with several icons of lock, the lock displays if this is the first folder level as private for yourself.  So if the parent folder was a lock, the folder below would not show the lock more because he has already known and assumed to be private.

    If the short answer: set up a folder and set the folder parent to share with > draw and the lock will be move up to the next level.

  • Catalog does - lrcat.lock file?

    Hello.  It seems that lightroom is maybe damaged.  I have really no idea - please help!  This morning, I was working in LR.  everything was fine.  I shut down the computer I normally and I'll be back from an empty LR.  When I open it, I backed up, but then no catalogue appeared.  nothing.  When I tried to open these, as well as several back ups, nothing is displayed.  most of the menu options are gray light, which means that you are unable to access them (for example, file import, open recently, catalogs are gray clear, I don't see yet "about adobe ps lr").  What is c?  When I try to open a file, nothing.

    I also noticed a file that appears when I try to open a backup.  It's the same name ends w / lrcat.lock

    Help, please!

  • Backup locked files in Dreamweaver

    I recently implemented a customer to use Contribute to update their Web site, while I do also some updates in Dreamweaver. When I check on a file, and then check in the file, Dreamweaver locks the file on my computer. If I do a backup of my files to a second computer, these files are also locked. Next time I want to back up to the second computer, I can't replace or delete the previous backup because some files are locked. I'm on a Mac, and I don't see a way to select the entire folder and quickly unlock all files in all subfolders. Even if I could, it would be a nuisance to have to do each time. Is there a way I can use the Check In / Check Out system properly without getting locked files? Thank you.

    I find the behavior of DW in this respect a major nuisance, precisely for the reason
    you mention. I use a Terminal order this recursively unlocks * all * the
    files in a given directory and all of its subfolders, which I performed before
    to do this type of backup.

    If you are comfortable using Terminal, simply type this into Terminal
    window, substituting your own directory path. If, for example, your computer
    user name is rinaldoh and you keep all your websites in a directory called
    "Websites" inside your Documents folder, you would like this:

    chflags-r nouchg/Users/rinaldoh/Documents/WebSites

    If you are comfortable with the Terminal, you can make an alias like I did.
    I just open a Terminal window unlockall and type and it runs my command.

    DW will always extract files (and the re - block) the next time you change
    them - I've done this for a long time and so far I can tell, it
    does not affect the use of checkin/checkout somehow. It allows you
    Replace your own files.

    If you're worried about it, however, you can run the command on the backup
    files only, which would achieve the same thing without removing the lock
    in the site files Dreamweaver active.

  • I use a free AVG antivirus to analyze my laptop and always, he reports many locked files that cannot be verified.

    original title: locked files.

    I use a free AVG antivirus to analyze my laptop and always, he reports many locked files that cannot be verified. Most of them have the sign $ in front of their name, but I can't find them easily when I search for later, but they are mostly ordinary files that have been recently opened and closed. What are the locked files and can they be removed?

    Hello Omowright,

    Thank you for posting.  This seems to be files that have been quarantined by moy.  This happens usually when your antivirus detects infected files and moves them to a waiting area where they can do no harm to your computer.  For more details on quarantine, I would say that you see the antivirus support site.
