When I enter the command:
apt-get update
I get an error message telling me that it cant open the lock file. Can anyone explain why this causes a problem and how I can avoid it in the future?
cant open the lock file
You can 2 reasons of this problem:
you run apt-get update without administrative privileges. Use sudo or login as root.
in your system running another apt-get, aptitude, synaptic, Software Center or Update Manager. Close it ant try again.

I tried to install wine on my Linux but it fails with the above error message.
I've tried to fix it for hours without no luck. Any idea why does it fail?
Try to install with aptitude: sudo aptitude install winehq-stable (aptitude will suggest resolutions to the problem) or just install first wine-stable then winehq-stable.

libmtp error: could not delete object.
Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
lsb_release -a
Perhaps you do not have the right MTP packages installed on your system?
Try with:
sudo apt-get install mtp-server libmtpserver-dev
and reconnect.
Also I've seen cases when it failed and renaming the file did the job (kinda strange). In case you want to go that way.

I am a user of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS using Unity default inteface.
I use Guake, a Drop-down terminal for GNOME.
I want to open it immediately without transitions because of Unity.
What can i do? Thanks.
Ok, I find it! Open a terminal and execute:
sudo apt-get install ccsm
And then execute: ccsm.
Uncheck 'Animations' to disable these kind of transitions.
