Bridge CS5 freezes after error message...."The operation could not be completed, there is not....

Error - The operation could not be completed.  Not enough storage is available to complete this operation.
After this happens I have to close Bridge as it is unresponsive to any further commands and I often I have to use the task manager to close it.
I have scoured these boards and the web for a solution and have found others w/ the same problem (even people w/ much more RAM) but have not found a solution beyond the usual advice of changing cache settings, increasing page file, or making sure there is enough hard drive space.
I have two 1TB hdd's w/ over 80% free space on each but I only have 2 GB RAM (all my old motherboard can handle).  However, this error message occurs even when Photoshop is not running (only Bridge) and my RAM usage meter shows that I still have plenty of unused RAM available.  I did not have this problem w/ Bridge CS4. The error msg. of not enough storage doesn't make since considering the available RAM showing and ample space on the hard disk assigned to the cache (which is a different physical drive than my OS or the Bridge program.)
Here are some of the things I have tried:
reset Bridge preferences at startup, changed the location of the Bridge cache, its size and options, purged the cache, changed the page file size on both drives to the max, defragmented drives, disabled Norton anti-virus, etc.
-What else can I try?
-Would creating a new partition on my 2nd hdd to be used solely for the Bridge cache make any difference and if so, why?
Please help, I am willing to try anything to get this to work.  It is a personal challenge at this point.... and I am determined to get Bridge CS5 to work on my machine...... 
Thanks in advance for any advice or insturctions you may offer!

Dear Customers,
I am Baichao Li, Adobe Bridge Quality Engineer.
Bridge team is investigating this error, In order to reproduce the problem in our lab and find a solution as soon as possible, I would like to ask you to help providing more information, please follow steps below,
1. Download "User Mode Process Dumper Version 8.1" from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/confirmation.aspx?familyId=e089ca41-6a87-40c8-bf69-2 8ac08570b7e&displayLang=en
2. Install "User Dumper" following Microsoft's article
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/241215
3. Open "Control Panel -> Process Dumper", switch to tab Page of "Processing Monitoring"
4. Click button "New", input "Bridge.exe" for "Application Name".
5. Select "Bridge.exe" from list box, then click button "Rules", 
                Select "Use Custom Rules",
                Browse to a custom dump file folder, 
                Check "All Exceptions",
                Check "Ignore Exceptions that occur inside Kernel32.dll",
                Select "Mini Dump Type" to "Small"
                Select "Save Mode" to "Cyclic Saving 5 times"
                Others keep uncheck or unselect.
6. Click "OK" button to exit "Rules" setting dialog, then Click "Apply" button, then click "OK" to quit "Process Dumper " dialog.
7. Launch Adobe Bridge CS5, do your work.
8. When that error message occurs, Bridge hang, wait for a while, then kill bridge using "Task Manager", please check if there are some ".dmp" files in "custom dump file folder " which is set in step 5, if so, please zip all .dmp files and FTP to us (please contact me at [email protected] for FTP info). It would be better if you can repeat your hang and send us more zipped .dmp files.
Sincerely appreciate if you could provide us your workflow before Bridge throws that error message, what file formats you use, what features you use and your machine information.
Best Regards,
Baichao Li

  • Cannot backup my files / copy my files and folders due to error message " The operation can't be completed because an item with the name ".DS_Store" already exists. "

    Hi Apple community!
    I have a [rather worrying] problem.
    When I try to copy all my files from my documents on my mac [or the entire documents folder] into an external drive, I get this error message
    " The operation can’t be completed because an item with the name “.DS_Store” already exists. "
    I am not given an option to skip this file or anything else.
    But I simply cannot complete the operation!
    I have tried deleting a few of the .ds_store files, [both in the original and in the destinations]
    but no success.
    The same thing keeps happening.
    At first, this was just happening when I was trying to backup to my dropbox folder [the one on my mac's harddrive, which gets synced to the cloud],
    but then I tried to back up my documents to my external hard drive, and I realized it is giving me the same error message.
    So effectively, it seems I cannot backup my files anywhere!
    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    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, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in 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 (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • IMovie error message "The operation could not be completed"

    I am trying to create a new movie and got this error message " The operation could not be completed" after selecting the Themes.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    My problem was because I had moved my Movies folder from the system drive (which is an SSD) over to another drive with a larger capacity. I then created an Alias in my home folder.  Turns out this is what was causing the problem. I shoulda known. Some apps absolutely hate this. iMovie, being the dumbed down garbage that it is, simply MUST have it's library in a certain folder, apparently. Would be nice if we had a choice about it.
    I find Premiere Elements is actually the better (and friendlier) program. However in this case, I had to slum it with iMovie due to the Quicktime file I was working with.

  • Error message "The operation can't be completed because an item with the name .DS_Store already exists"

    Major headaches with copying files and folders between drives. I constantly (and I mean constantly) have to resort to copying files across in small batches (fewer than 10 works best) because anytime I try to copy lots of files and folders from my mac to an external hard drive (or from one external HD to a second external HD), I ALWAYS get the error message  "The operation can't be completed because an item with the name .DS_Store already exists".
    The files and folders are all Mac-generated, so hint or trace of foreign OSs in the mix.
    All file types are susceptible
    the HDs are all Mac OS X formatted, no foreign file formats involved
    the HDs are all journal-enabled, OS X extended formats
    have looked on here for previous posts, past suggestion was to disable creation of DS_Store files - not really a solution and realistically, defeats the purpose of their creation
    any ideas anyone?
    would appreciate any thoughts or sugestions, this has got me beat
    the context is that I have a lot of image files that I am copying (trying to...) new external 3TB drives for backup and the job appears endless if I have to do this in batches of 10 or so..!
    many thanks for any suggestions

    This is definitively a nuisance. When copying large amounts of files between volumes  try opening a terminal window and use use ditto. You need to type the directory paths of the source and the destination volume. When it starts ditto just coupes and optionally overwrites anything on the destination. You can get a verbose mode where it lists all activities.

  • I keep getting the error message "The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items."

    When I try and move an application to my application folder from the installer and when I try to empty the trash, I get the error message, "The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have permission to access some of the items."  This has only been an issue since I upgraded to Lion.  I'm using a July '07 white Macbook 2.16 Intel Core 2 Duo.  In my trash I only have an older version of a software that I updated (Divy).  The software I'm trying to install is Angry Birds Rio.

    Always use the same websites you are having problems with so you can monitor the changes.
    Try the reset for Safari:
    And for Firefox:

    Try logging in to the guest account as well to see if you have the same problems there, it might be a logging in issue.

  • HT1222 Update to Safari 6.0.2 gives error message "The operation couldn't be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -3001.)(102)"

    Every time I try an update I keep getting the error message
    "The operation couldn’t be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -3001.)(102)."
    Once I get this error message and try to update again, I get told there are no updates. I have to cancel the first attempted update and close all message windows before it lets me try again, and guess what, same error as above.
    Is anyone else having this problem, or know how to fix it.
    Not sure at the moment if this is an Apple related problem or a problem with my machine, but everything else worked ok, including an earlier update to iPhoto

  • Error message:  The operation couldn't be completed. (OSStatus error -43.)

    I've been using TeleChart 2000 for a couple of weeks with no problem.  Then over the weekend it disappeared from my dock and wouldn't stay in the dock even though I selected "keep in dock."  At least I could still open it by going to the "downloads" folder.  Now today, when I tried to open it after using it earlier in the day, I got this message:  The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -43.)
    Anyone know how to fix this?

    I took a quick look at http://www.welovemacs.com/whdoalltherc.html which list many error codes, Error 43 appears to be a file not found error.

  • Iphoto will not play H.264 video: error message "The operation couldn't be completed. (OSStatus error -101.)" Any suggestions to fix?

    Hi, I am on iphoto 11 version 9.2, Mac OS 10.7.5 using a macbook Pro 2.8Ghz Intel.  All of a sudden I cannot play video (H.264) on iphoto.  I get the message "The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -101.)".  I rebuilt the iphoto database and videos played once, since then, they will not play and I continue to get the error message, even if I rebuild the database. 
    Any thoughts or helpful suggestions from anyone gratefully received.

    Hi Terence,
    Thank you for your help.
    My saved iphoto library is in iphoto 09 and I have now iphoto 11 in my iMac as I upgraded from OS X Lion Mountain to OS X Mavericks.

  • Why can't I import my phots's fom my digital camera? I get this error message The operation couldn't be completed. (com.apple.ImageCaptureCore error -9912.)

    The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.ImageCaptureCore error -9912.)

    The com.apple.ImageCaptureCore error may be a system issue.  Try applying this updaters:
    OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo)
    OS X Lion 10.7.5 Supplemental Update
    and then try again.  Also try reformatting the memory card with the camera, take some test shots and try importing those photos.  This is to rule out a card issue.
