I don't think moving the cursor automatically is a good idea. Automatic stuff confuses many users (mostly novice ones)

Further nitpicking: it's not really the filename, because you don't have to enter the extension, right?
Maybe: "Please choose a different name, because it's already used by another file".

I think it should be "Please choose a different title, because this title is already used by another file"

This would conform to the label under which this error shows.
