Error while consolidating (The operation couldn't be completed. Permission denied)

I have just bought a new MacBook and that has given me extra harddrive space, and now I am trying to consolidate some masters in Aperture, that I have on my Time Capsule. But I get this error:
Error while consolidating (The operation couldn’t be completed. Permission denied)
I can access my Time Capsule in Finder perfectly well. Can anyone help?

I think that error was due to the fact that I hadn't upgraded MAC OSX after installing it. I have done that now and now I get another error saying the masters are offline.
I found this old thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1965601?start=0&tstart=0 which seems to be the same problem. This is a whole other topic so I will start a new thread, but leave this in case anyone gets the same problem as me. Upgrade your OSX. That's the solution :-)

    Hi again OGELTHORPE.
    I've already run two hardware tests. One quick one and one extended one. It was unable to pick anything up.
    It's like everything is running perfectly, but when I go to erase the HDD or partition it, it pops up with the error message. Even when I try to erase and partition using "Terminal", I received the same error message.
    It's beginning to do my head in, but will see if replacing the SATA cable will make any difference. If it doesn't, I'll hazard a guess it could be the Logic Board.
    Thanks again for your suggestions!

    I'm having this same error tonight on my MBP 13 inch Mid 2009 running 10.9.2. I was also upgrading my sister's MBP 15 inch after a fresh install of 10.9.1 and after doing the 10.9.3 Combined updater. I was beginning to wonder if my rural wireless ISP had implemented some firewall setting that was causing this.
    I connected to my office Mac mini server and it's doing the same thing.
    I guess we have to wait for Apple to fix this.

  • I get the following error when formatting a external hard drive. Partition failed with the error:  POSIX reports: The operation couldn't be completed. Cannot allocate memory

    I get the following error when formatting a external hard drive.
    Partition failed with the error: 
    POSIX reports: The operation couldn’t be completed. Cannot allocate memory
    I have a Macbook pro 13" A1278. I purchased it around december 2010. I have a HHD 3.5" drive desktop select II 1.5TB. I purchased it around Febuary/March 2011 to use with my Macbook pro. I formatted it and moved all my files to there, I got it so my macbook's hard drive wouldn't brake and I lose everything on my macbook.
    Is there any fixes?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • POSIX reports: The operation couldn't be completed. Cannot allocate memory

    Hi all.
    Please forgive my naivety. I'm a newbie here.
    I have searched endlessly to find a solution to my problem, but cannot seem to find one.
    I have just replaced a hard drive on a 13" Macbook pro (purchased end of 2009). It developed a fault, and would not boot. When turned on, would only produce a blank screen with a flashing folder featuring a question mark.
    When going through disk utility, the system could not detect any internal hard drive, which made me believe it was faulty.
    I ordered a 500GB Toshiba Hard Drive, and installed it as it should be. In Disk Utility, the system detects the Toshiba hard drive (it comes up in the list you'd expect it to). Whenever I go to 'Erase' or 'Partition', however, I get the following error message.
    "Disk Erase/Partition failed
    Disk Erase/Partition failed with the error:
    POSIX reports: The operation couldn't be completed. Cannot allocate memory"
    Is anybody able to offer this novice any suggestions as to what I might do? I have tried some "Terminal" entries, but they don't seem to help in the slightest.
    Thanks in advance,
    L.
    P.S. The Macbook is using Snow Leopard.

  • Re: The operation couldnʻt be completed. Permission denied

    Aloha- We recently installed a shared storage server for two Final Cut Pro X systems. Working from our Mac Pro copying FCP X events to new server, 2 problems occur.  1. Server connections interrupted error then FCP X crashes.  2. Re-start Final Cut Pro, then try to open library on server and error message appears, The operation couldnʻt be completed. Permission denied
    Is this a setting problem on the Mac Pro? Is this a software issue in Final Cut Pro X?  Please, help and suggestions welcome.  Thank you.

    Hi Tom, A tech setup the connections remotely between the 2 Macs and the storage server. I think that he did set the read/write permissions for the server. However, (Iʻm an idiot) this is beyond my knowledge. Can you guide me as to where to look?  Thank you!

Underlying Error=(Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=5 "The operation couldn’t be completed. Input/out. Any thoughts on what is causing these errors and the upgrade failure?
    Thanks

    I have no idea what the specific error code means but input/output errors can sometimes mean a disk is failing. Make a couple of backups of all important data before doing anything else.
    Verify your startup disk using the First Aid tab in Disk Utility. If the disk needs repair boot from your Leopard DVD and repair your disk from Disk Utility under Utilities on the screen after you choose your language. Repeat the repair process until Disk Utility reports all is well.
    If Disk Utility doesn't find any errors you might want to try a new download of the update and keep a sharp eye on your HD for anything else that might indicate all is not well. Take special care to back up important data.
    If Disk Utility finds errors it would probably be a good idea to pay a visit to the Apple Store to have them check out your hard drive even if Disk Utility is able to repair the errors.

    HOW CAN I AVOID THIS ERROR MESAGE WHILE TRYING TO EXPORT AN IPHOTO SLIDESHOW:  The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -61.)

    Hello,
    I believe the issue was the external HD I purchased was not formatted for Mac . . . once I took care of that - all went well!  The slide show transferred and the surprise 70th birthday party was a huge sucess.  Thank you everyone!

  • Two Macs using separate Time Capsules on same network - The operation couldn't be completed. (OSStatus error 2.)

    Six hours of configuration and I'm out of ideas.
    Here's the layout:
    Cisco Cable Modem connects to my ISP. It uses DHCP to distribute IP addresses which is necessary as ethernet throughout the house is piggybacked on coax and the ethernet to coax adapter has a mac address and needs to take an IP address (DirectTV - not my idea). Though not my preferred config, this seems solid.
    Cable Modem connects via ethernet (though this crazy coax adapter) to Downstairs Time Capsule (call it DTC). DTC is set to create network without using DHCP so that no duplicate IPs are dished out. No problems so far - everything works. DTC has a MacMini hooked up by parallel ethernet and the MacMini is set to back up to the DTC disk, called "Combo Time Machine". Back up is running smoothly, no problems.
    On the same network there is another Time Capsule connected, called Upstairs Time Capsule (UTC). UTC is set to create network in bridge mode so as to repeat the network created by the DTC (to increase range). All of this is, network-wise, is working fine:
    UTC is connected by parallel ethernet to an iMac which I want to back up to the UTC disk, called "iMac Time Machine". This is where the problem starts. It seems logical that one Mac could backup to one Time Capsule while a different Mac back up to a different Time Capsule, even though everything is on the same network, right?
    So here's what I see while using the iMac to try to configure Time Machine upstairs:
    Looks good, right?
    It's as if the Time Machine software confuses the two Time Capsules - it's asking for the Downstairs Time Capsule disk password, not the Upstairs one as it should be. Still, I try the password and here's what I get:
    "The operation couldn't be completed. (OSStatus error 2)" means nothing to me... little help?

    I have an idea this is going to take some working out.
    What IP is the upstairs TC and what IP is the downstairs one?
    Can you ping them both please by name and by IP address?
    Can you manually mount the share you will use for time machine in the iMac upstairs..
    In finder go, connect to server.
    Type in the name AFP://user@TCname
    You will then be asked for the password and it should be able to be stored in the keychain. Then select that for TM.. if TM still carries on, reset it and try again. See A4 here.

    The double entry and refusing to join the right disk is a Mountain Lion trait.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
