Log in as SYSTEM (or any other DBA account you have)

and do 

select owner, object_name, object_type from dba_objects where
object_name = 'ACTS';

it's possible that the user you log into is looking at a synonym, and
has not been granted update by the true owner.

Also, under a DBA account, you should be able to tell what tablespace
it's in.

select segment_owner, segment_name, tablespace_name from dba_segments
where segment_name ='ACTS';
