• Why can't I delete a file corrupted in my program files?

  I could not update my iTunes application in Vista 32 bit.  I tried the uninstall/reinstall, now it won't install because I have a file corrupted in my program files.  When I try to delete the file, I said that I don't have permission to delete, but I am the administrator of my machine.  WTF?  C:\Program Files\Fichiers Apple Mobile Device Support\SyncServices\Schemas\Notes.syncschema\Contents\Resources\Spanish.lproj\Localizable.strings
  "Make sure you have access to this directory?  someone please help
  -I now have ownership of the files, according to the guests. However, I now get error 0 x 80070091: the directory is not empty and forced either retry or cancel.  Thanks for the links.  Unfortunately, I still can't convince my machine to remove old files 8-(.)

  I FOUND the solution, thanks to Suzukibiker, Chaddington Boomhauer on SecondLife and Pyrografix on Microsoft TechNet.  Long story short, I activated the REAL administrator of my machine through http://www.autoshutdown.org/how-to-enable-administrator-in-vista.html and was able to take in hand the folder and files.  I then renamed the something VERY vulgar folder, only the iTunes Installer ignored later, allowing me to finally completely reinstall iTunes.

  Thank you once again for the excellent advice.

• Why can I not see the files I back up by using the backup and restore of Vista

  Can someone help me?  I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 and implemented backup and restore feature Vista so that every Sunday he automatically backs up my computer to my external drive.  I was on the computer when he said it starts up and that upward was completed successfully.  I assummed everything was fine until today when I show my father my drive external and noticed that none of the backup of files were there... or at least I did not see them.  The only files on the disk were the ones I put manually on here from my old computer.  I then ran a manual upward using Vista and again it says backup successfully completed.  I then watched the external hard drive and once again no new files.  The strange thing is the back up and restore program shows all the dates he has saved and also allows me to restore files from the back to the top.  To do this, I deleted a file I didn't really need out of my hard drive and then is gone to restore program and found the file and restored.  Problem is that the program does not say where he makes the file from.  What is going on?  Are backup files of certain types of hidden file I don't see unless I use the backup and restore program under vista?  I am currently running Vista Home Premium on a 32 bit system and the external hard drive I have is a Western Digital My Book Essential Edition.

  Windows backup is stored in a folder with the same name as your computer.  Open a command prompt and type echo %ComputerName% or startup, right-click on computer, properties.  You should see that % ComputerName % folder on your external drive, and in this context, a backup set.

• Why can't I save a file?

  Why can't I save a .ltx file?  I have admin permission appropriate (according to win7 anyway) but when I try to save him, the notebook said "unable to save.  Access denied. "  I just need to change a word in the file then I need to save it, but I can't save it.  I tried several different programs and all have the same result.

  Do you have the write permission on the folder where you want to save the file?  You can save other files there?

  Is the file you are trying to save the game read-only?  He initially recorded by another user account?

• Why can't I choose the file type?

  When there is a listed image and there is more than one option for the file type, why am I not able to choose the format I want?  I recently spent the Dollar Photo Club and I'm irritated, with the move, I think that I have all the Adobe products to access the files.

  Twice he came now I chose an image and sent a .ai file.  I can't open the .ai files because I do not use a program Adobe!  I understand that these wheels are specifically designed for Adobe and I would not have chosen this type of file for this reason.  My problem is that BOTH times the available file type was also listed as a .eps file!  I am able to use this file type.

  However, it only gives me the possibility to download this form, even if he says that it is available.  How can I use the image if I can't open it?  Why .eps as a format from the list and then only let me download in a format that I can not use?

  This is the ID for the two files I've lost credits on.  It clearly states that these two are available as a .eps, yet I can't access it.

  #93099396

  #28242166

  Megan, the dedicated team working on this and it seems to work that way for a long time only; every time, it downloads a file .ai only.

  From of now the workaround that you can try is to open the file IN Illustrator and save it as .eps.

  Hope that helps!

• Why can't I remove installation file?

  It's weird and miss me probably just something obvious, but I downloaded "flashplayer20_ha_install" and completed the installation. Now I want to delete the file because it is no longer necessary. It seems impossible.

  I get an error message "File cannot be deleted because it is open in Adobe Download Manager". Fine. When I'm looking exactly where to find Adobe Download Manager, I like that it is no longer used for the installation of flash player. So, how can I get rid of the file?

  It's weird.  Under Windows, the Setup online file automatically deletes automatic when the installation is complete, without worrying whether it succeeded or not. In your case, it seems that something (e.g. some process) continues to use the finished installation program.  When you try to delete the file and get the error that it is in use, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Task Manager
     • You can right-click on the icon of the window at the bottom left to view a menu or type "Task Manager" in the search field
  2. Right click on the Task Manager and select "Run as Administrator"
  3. In the Find tab process "Adobe Download Manager.  If it is there, right click and select 'end of task.
  4. Go to the 'Users' tab and search for "Adobe Download Manager" process.  If it is there, right click and select 'end of task.
  5. Go to the 'Détails' tab and search for "flashplayer20_ha_install.exe. If it is there, right click and select 'end of task.

  Please post back or not one of the above option worked.  If it doesn't work (the process was not in one of these tabs) I'll need to climb the team that manages the line/Adobe Download Manager installer.

• Why can I not print pdf files after upgrade to Acrobat 9.

  Since the upgrade to Acrobat 9, I am unable to print PDFs with my Canon ip5000. I reinstalled my printer and installed the latest driver from Canon. This did not help. I can print a PDF using Acrobat 8.

  One last thing to try:

  Search for all of the .plist files associated with Acrobat in main library > directory preference or user > directory of preference library to delete these files in the Recycle Bin.

  Open Acrobat and see what happens.

  In addition, while you have configured to print, you should see the printer icon in the Dock. Double-click it to open it. Look and see if the printer indicates

  like: http://screencast.com/t/Mzg0ZGFlYWMt

  Click on start to print so that you see this:

  before we do if you see print jobs listed in the references list click on each to select and remove each.

• Why can't I delete a document profile in CS6?

  I created a document profile and saved it in the appropriate folder:

  C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS6 Settings\en_US\x64\New Document profiles

  Then, I needed to remove it, but it comes back. I deleted the file (even from the trash), deleted my preferences and rebooted the machine. But when I run Illustrator, as soon as I press Ctrl + N or click file/new, profile gets automatically recreated in the new Document Profiles folder and appears in the drop-down list of the dialog box new file.

  A search of the drive hard watch the file does not exist, and yes I am display files and hidden folders. So, I don't know where it comes from.

  This isn't just an annoyance. I record the screen, and the drop-down list should be clean. I hope that there is an easier way to solve this only to reinstall the suite. I have not tried to remove the folder... \en_US\x64.

  Yes, this could be the case, if the custom profile has been saved in the folder of the application. On windows for CS5, this is C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS5\Support Files\Required\New Document Profiles\en_US

  Although this isn't the default location and the search for the custom profile file must have found but it good to double check. Also delete the folder of the user, on restart Illustrator will recreate the profiles in the user account by using the files in the application

• Why can't I delete files pdf on my PC?

  

  I had this problem since the new update of Adobe is out. Does anyone know how to remove PDFs with an error like this? I disabled the preview pane, the files of the drugs in the trash and cursed on my PC. Nothing has worked so far.

Following the instructions of this link solved the problem. If all goes well, it can help others facing the same problem.
