I was facing a similar problem whre i have to check two check boxes one after the other.But i was getting the same above error.hence i added wait in between my steps for checking the checkboxes....its working fine and great.here are the steps:-

  When I visit /administrator/user_profiles
  And I press xpath link "//*[@id='1']"
  Then I should see "Please wait for a moment..."
  When I wait for 5 seconds
  And I press xpath link "//*[@id='2']"
  Then I should see "Please wait for a moment..."
  When I visit /administrator/user_profiles_updates
