• Cannot copy Photos from external storage library

  I want to copy my library of Photos of my iMac to an external storage device. I use an SD card to copy the files on as is the storage device external only I with sufficient capacity to store my library (21,86 GB). When I run the copy, all right, but eventually it stops about 21.5 GB (do not remember the exact number). It comes up with the error message "the Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in"Photo library"cannot be read or written. (Error code - 36) ». The library contains a very important image and video files and while I don't have a backup of it on my Time Capsule airport, I added a lot of files since then. One thing I found on other messages of the forum is to repair my library by pressing the command and option that I opened the Photos but I'm afraid that something can go wrong or could not even solve the problem, however if someone thinks he can do the trick I will try it. BTW - the SD card works fine as I tested it on my MacBook Air and it works for other files on my iMac. I also tried using a different SD card but had the same problems. I am running OSX 10.11 version (The El Capitan Public Beta Candidate GM). The reason why I have not yet updated to my computer because I'm worried cause more problems with my library of Photos and, as I said, my only relief is most likely is obsolete. I use an iMac late 2013 and I have had no other problems with my computer, or I do now with the current version, I'm running. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance and wish you a wonderful Christmas.

  What format is the SD card?  The photo library can be on a volume formatted Mac OS extended (logged)

  and as for backups without a good current backup that you will lose data early as things do lack, including the hardware, software and human - you need a constant backujp as TimeMachine anytime

• Cut and paste in Windows Explorer is * copy * instead of move.

  In Solution Explorer, if I try to move files and folders using cut and paste (or ctrl-x and then Ctrl + v, or 'cut' and then 'paste' from the Edit menu), they were copied instead of moved. It started just past recently after years of using this technique.

  If I right click, drag and select 'Go here', he moves correctly.

  Any ideas? Very much appreciated.

  See you soon,.

  Hello Michael,

  Your computer is connected to a domain?

  This can happen when there is rdpclip.exe service runs as part of a domain network. You can try to stop the rdpclip.exe service to see if that helps.

  Another thing that can help is to make sure that you have installed Windows XP Service Pack 3.

  Hope that helps, I look forward to hearing from you.

• In Windows 7, cannot copy files in system32, goes to sysWOW64 instead

  Somehow I can not copy the file in system32, but rather the file go to sysWOW64, I used windows 7 64 bit, I hope someone can solve this problem. Thank you

  Why / what you are trying to copy a file in System32?

  System32 (as its name suggests) is a system folder that is protected by Windows Resource Protection. You should not normally be playing with it unless you have good reason.

  SysWOW64 is a record that plays an "emulator" to allow 32-bit programs to run on a 64 bit version of Windows 7. Still, you shouldn't normally be playing with it.

• Error: Copy Photos "Windows has encountered a problem wen trying to copy this file.

  original title: copy files confuses computer!

  There are two approaches you can take.

  One solution: you can copy files into smaller "chunks" until you identify the file that causes the error, and then try to find out what is the problem with this file.

  Another solution is to download the program "Robust copy" (Robocopy) to Microsoft and it allows to copy your files.  You download and install in the Windows 2003 Resource Kit (works fine on XP).

  Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit:
  <>http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=17657 >

  Once installed, you can open a command prompt window (start-> Run-> "cmd") and enter the command:
  Robocopy "C:\photos" 'E:\photos' /R:5 / s
  Where "C:\photos" will be replaced by the source directory, and the 'E:\photos' is the destination directory.  the "/ S" option will copy the subdirectories and the R:5 option retries 5 times on error before moving on to the next file.  Errors should be displayed on the screen and I found errors of command line to be more descriptive than GUI errors.  There are a lot more options, but this should help you get started.

• Windows XP Professional Setup copy iaStor.sys then the OS says that it cannot copy the file iaStor.sys.

  After the RAID 0 disk partitioning, installing Windows says it will copy the files in the file system. The first file is iaStor.sys. My SATA CD drive runs for a few seconds, then there is a long pause, then the OS says that it cannot copy the file iaStor.sys. He goes on to say that I should check that there is a CD in the drive. Any ideas?

  Here's the solution to this problem:

  1. in the disk driver (a:\) root directory create a directory called holiday of $ $OEM existing files as they are, we will not delete or replace anything.

  2. in the directory $ $OEM you have created, create another directory called TEXTMODE

  3. copy all the driver files located in the root directory to the A:\$OEM$\TEXTMODE subdirectory, try to reinstall, it should now work.

  original title: could not copy files

  When I try to copy a file to an external device using Windows Explorer I get the following error message: "cannot copy.  The directory or file cannot be created. "I understand that I may have the physical limit of USB keys for the root directory.  How can I fix it?

  Hi GloriaZF,

  What is the size of your external hard drive and what is the available free space? Open my computer-> right click on the external hard drive-> properties. You will not be able to copy more data if the disk is full, or who have less space compared to the size of the file you are trying to copy.

  You need to remove the order data to make the space more. Deleted data from the device USB will be permanently deleted and will not be stored in your Inbox, so take care while eliminating unnecessary data.

  I hope this helps.

• Upgrade Vista to Windows 7 error: "Windows cannot copy files required for installation. The files may be damaged or missing. Error Code Ox80070017.

  I am upgrading of Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit) for Windows 7 Home Premium (32 bit) - but getting stopped everytime I try, I end up with a dialog box stating: "Windows cannot copy files required for installation. The files may be damaged or missing. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error Code Ox80070017.

  What should I do to resolve this problem and allow full of Windows 7 installation? (my computer is a Compaq Presario V6000).

  Hello

  What installation media you are using?

  Method 1:

  Error 0 x 80070017 translates "CRC error" which means that the files that are copied from the disc are not making it to the hard drive with the same structure, which means that the 'original' the disk files are modified/changed/corrupted while being copied to the location of the 'destination' on your disk during Setup.

  This usually means a bad DVD, or an error reading on the DVD player.
