I want to create partition of my Hard Disk but the partition contains Ubuntu installed in it. I have GParted installed but since the partition contains Ubuntu I can't unmount. Is there any way I can create partition without losing the files that I have and with ubuntu still lying there?

You need a live CD. Manipulating partitions can't be done while mounted unless you used LVM (and even then there could be some problems).
