> I came across a very vexing issue. When I tried to change the metadata on a number of my files, I would get the error message "cannot be opened for writing". I see from a number of posts that others have been having the same issue, but I couldn't find a satisfactory solution in the forums....

I do not know what satisfies you in respect to quality of solution.  
But there is a thread from the 11th of September (so just 4 days ago) that deals with this topic.
