Most probably the reason here is that version control is enabled in your library and the option to check out items first before editing them is enabled as well. The problem here is that sometimes user tend to not check-in items after editing them.
What you can do, though not recommended is to turn off the setting which requires check out before editing so that users don't get this error.

As suggested never turn off the settings. Admin has to ensure that if a file is eidted, it must be checked-in & published/Approved ASAP. – Ananda Prasad Bandaru Apr 24 '13 at 08:31
