10.6.5, then Error -36 on external HD : How to solve now?

It's probably just a coincidence, but a day after upgrading to 10.6.5 I started getting Error -36's on one of my external drives (the one that has my iTunes library on it.) The drive is one of those LaCie Mini hubs, 250 GB.
What I've tried so far:
- Dragging files over to another external individually. This sometimes works.
- Using dot_clean on some of the directories in Terminal. This has not solved problems.
- Trying to move the files using Terminal. Terminal could not move the files.
- Unmounting and verify/repairing disk in Disk Utility. Disk Utility reports no problems with the drive.
- Running Time Machine for the first time (I bought a 1 TB external in September and didn't think about how I have the space for Time Machine until today). Time Machine got about 40 GB in (out of 220) and reported an error and said - paraphrasing - "perhaps try again later."
So now I'm letting the drives -- all three of them -- sit turned off for the day, wondering what my next step should be in trying to recover the contents on that HD. Thoughts?

That's most likely Time Machine trying to back up whatever's wrong/corrupted on the iTunes drive. You should be able to see the actual message, via #C2 in [Time Machine - Troubleshooting|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/Troubleshooting.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum). It's probably "An error occurred while copying files to the backup volume." Whatever it is will probably be fixed when you fix the iTunes drive.
What do you mean by "Terminal could not move the files"?
Was there an error message? If so, what?
That sort of problem is usually associated with the drive, or the connections to it. Eject and disconnect it, and disconnect anything connected to it.
Restart your Mac, connect the drive. Make sure all connections are snug and secure, and power it on. Do a +*Repair Disk+* on it again.
Also make sure it's plugged-in to a known good outlet or surge protector (or, better, U.P.S. system), preferably the same one the Mini is on.
If that doesn't help, if it's connected to your Mac via USB, try via FireWire, and vice-versa.
If the problem continues, eject and disconnect it. Try different port(s), cables, and combinations (a plug that works fine in one port may not make good contact in another).
How old is it?

    Could be me, but your VI is not working properly on the english version of LV. Can I suggest you to try programming in English in the future?
    Yes, it's you. The VI is working just fine, except for some cosmetic issues with the labeling. I don't think is is a valid suggestion to force somebody to program in a specific language, especially since LabVIEW supports all these languages.
    Here are the problems with the VI:
    If you don't want an amplitude of zero, you need to set the amplitude control to a nonzero value before running. Simple as that!. (You could also set the input range for the amplitude control to exclude zero or use a case structure to skip certain code if the amplitude is zero).
    You could also wire the error output to an indicator so it simply displays the errors, but keeps running.
    Your while loop is currently useless. You can delete it and the program function will not change. Use a stop button at the loop condition.
    Your while loop needs some timing so it runs at a reasonable rate. Either add a small wait or configure the signal generation to "simulate acquisition timing" instead of "run as fast as possible".

  • I get an error in using ncWatiForS​tate,how to solve the problem?

    I recuperate a  CVI code (obj2obj) in examples, in order to receive CAN data. However, I met an ERROR, 
    It shows:
    (Hex 0xBFF62001) means the timeout of a wait or notification function expired before any desired state occurred.
    Solutions: Increase value of Timeout parameter; Verify your cable connections and operation of remote devices
    But if the other OBJ didn't  send data,how to solve this ERROR?
    I means that i want to get my program continue  running without/after this error be solved?That is if time is out,it jumps to next line。

    You could ignore the timeout for the wait and just case to the next function you wnat to call if a timeout ocures. Thus you would not call the read function in a timeout case.
    Or you could loop into the wait function again to wait another timout until the frame you expected has received.

  • Can't restore or update my Ipod Touch 4g. when I want to update it, I have error 3194 or 2009. How to solve this problem?

    I have a problem. When i try to update, restore or fully clear memory of Ipod, i always have an error. I can't do anything with it. during my efforts, i had errors like 3194, 2134 or 2009 and another. Help me please. Sorry for my bad english, i'm from Ukraine.

    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.
    The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • "Arithmetic Overflow" error getting AVG of field - how to solve?

    After some research, it appears that the problem is in a precision mis-match between Oracle floats and .NET floats, and that OracleDecimal should be used. I'm just using C# ExecuteScalar to get an average out of a table's field.
    Can someone show me a concrete-but-simple example of how to get an average w/o getting Arithmetic Overflow?
    thanks much,
    cdj

    Hi,
    If you want to use ExecuteScalar, you could wrap the AVG call with a call to ROUND or TRUNC to keep it under 28 digits. for example
    select round(1/3,28) from dual;
    Here's an example that gets 38 digits without overflow.
    Hope it helps,
    Greg

      This may be beacuse of the Internal Table you are passing to the Subroutine.

  • How to solve "Bad Content-Length value" Error that show in ADF Mobile

    I was develop application that using web service from mine original ADF project and I can't fetch via AMX Page as pop-up error "Bad Content-Length value" How to solve this problem ?
    My Web-service configuration
    - "Find" is only basic operation that in view instance
    - None of View criteria
    As only find is basic operation, that seems required "findCriteria" and "findControl" parameter(as seen in "Panel From layout" generated in AMX Page)
    After drag generate form view in AMX Page and after to deploy to simulator, I was found pop-up error was said Bad Content-Length value as shown below.

  • HT201442 how to solve error 3004?

    Hi All,
              I haveing problem during restoring. Unable to restore due to error 3004. Anybody knows how to solve it. Thk.

    Hello, kyawmyintshein85. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Here are the steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing restore error 3004. 
    Resolve communication issues
    Check the hosts file or TCP/IP filtering, which might cause communication issues between iTunes, ports, and servers.
    Common errors: 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194, or 3000-3999. These alerts refer to gs.apple.com, say "There was a problem downloading the software", or say the "device isn't eligible for the requested build".
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Also, make sure to process and updates for iTunes and your computer.

  • Error when launching External WBT

    Hello experts,
    Frequently, when launching Ext WBT courses-- we receive the following error:
    Server Response External LMS   
    External Training Provider  9000
    Service ID  01
    External Course ID  98406
    Status  FAILURE
    The issue seems to be sporadic as often times, logging out of the portal then logging back in resolves the issue. If not, we are left to launch an InPrivate Browsing session in IE8 which resolves the problem approximately 90% of the time.
    I did read about the persistent cookie issue within IE8 which seems like it may be the cause, but wanted to consult with the other users out there and see if they are also affected or know the root cause.
    Your assistance/feedback is greatly appreciated
    Thanks,
    Amrit

    Hi everyone,
    Still receiving the same error on a sporadic basis. By chance, anyone out there familiar with this issue?
