Can not copy a file larger then 4 GB in to usb driver

I have the AirPort Extreme (802.11n) and have a usb driver connected on it. every time i wanna copy a large file say 4GB one, it just won't , and show me a error says the network connection problem.

Probably because your drive is formatted as FAT32.
Re-format the drive as HFS+ and you should be fine then.

  • Can not copy any file or empty the trash

    Hello,
    I'm using a Macbook (white) with OSX 10.6.4 and am having an extremely annoying problem which has three symptoms:
    1. I *can not empty the trash* (safely or not) at all.
    2. I *can not copy any file*, anywhere.
    3. I *can not move anything to the "Applications"* folder.
    I try restarting the computer, repairing the permissions, running the latest version of Onyx and so on, but nothing works. I always get the following error message (when copying a file or emptying the trash)
    "The operation can't be completed because you don't have the permission to access some of the items".
    And this even though I repaired the permissions three times today.
    To be honest, this makes my Mac pretty useless, and is very frustrating.
    Can anybody help? I've browsed a lot of other threads about this, tried everything, but to no avail.
    Come on, this is my first Mac, don't tell me I have to reinstall the OS from zero, Windows-style.

    Those are the normal permissions but if you are logged in as admin, hit the unlock button and enter your password they should no longer be greyed out.
    You can try chmoding them from root through the terminal if you are up for it. I'd also try booting up in SafeMode and seeing if that allows access.

    how do i get files larger than 2 gigs on a usb drive and still be able to use on a mac and pc?

    You can format the drive using ExFAT or you can format the drive NTFS then use third-party software on the Mac to enable writing to it: NTFS 11.2.443.

  • Can not copy 8GB file to ipod classic 120 GB

    I am not able to copy 8GB file to ipod.
    I get error message "The disk in the destination drive is full. Insert a new disk to continue."
    But more than 75GB free space is available.

    iPod for Windows use is formatted to the FAT32 specification.
    Max. file size on a FAT32 partition is 4GB.
    Is this a media file you want to play on your iPod? If so can it be split into smaller chunks? Same applies if you're using the iPod for storage/transfer although it might be better to get a small external drive that you can format in NTFS for this use.

  • I can not store all my Music on my internal Macbook pro hard drive so I am storing it on a large external drive connected to my airport extrem.  How do I get Itunes to search for the music here with out trying to copy it to my laptops hard drive??

    I can not store all my Music on my internal Macbook pro hard drive so I am storing it on a large external drive connected to my airport extreme (2 TB drive plugged into the USB port).  I see the drive on my laptop and I can add and delete files no problem.  How do I get Itunes to search for the music here with out trying to copy it to my laptop's hard drive?  I don't have enough space to do that.

    How did you move the music to the external drive?  What exactly is on the drive?  The entire iTunes folder or only music?  If it is the entire iTunes folder you can do the option+start suggestion earlier.  If you copied only music and did so by dragging it there then you need to delete it again and consolidate/organize it there instead so iTunes tracks the move.  iTunes 12 for Mac: Change where your iTunes files are stored - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19507

  • Can not copy text from AI CC or AI6 in to the file name

    I have an AI file with 80+ UPC codes that I need to separate in to individual files. Each UPC has a descriptor but when I copy the text and then try to paste it as file name it will not paste. I use this same process regularly in InDesign when I design print ads. Each print ad has a unique item number that prints with the copyright line so I simply copy and paste that information when I do the save.
    Under File Handling and Clipboard both PDF and AICB are on. I've tried this in AICC and AICS6. I also tried different files. Same issue. Any suggestions? I really don't want to have to type 80 some descriptions which are very lengthy. 

    I can not copy the text from Illustrator in to any OS X application/function (filename, Mail, Text Edit, ect). I can copy in to InDesign, Photoshop, Flash, and other other Adobe product. I can copy in to Word as well. I guess my work around will be Word.
    And the opposite is true. I can copy text from any other Adobe application to any OS X application/function with no issues.
    I guess my work around will be to OCR the text from Acrobat and open in Word. The descriptors have to be 100% accurate and some of them are pretty long.

  • Can not copy text from a pdf file

    https://sites.google.com/site/sharedacrobat/data/cannot_copy_text.pdf?attredirects=0&d=1
    I can not copy the table caption in the above pdf. If I do so, I will get some gibberish, such as %"/*&+%",-.%&1",/*%9&,*09%&
    I'm wondering what happens to the pdf file. Is there a way to fix it so that I can copy the text?

    Does anybody know what cause the problem and how to fix it? The current walkaround is to convert the pdf into image, then load the image into acrobat and perform OCR. But this is tedious and some information may be lost. I'm wondering if there is a better solution.

  • Can i create AIF or WAV files larger then 4 gig?

    Can i create AIF or WAV files larger then 4 gig?  It seems like I have been doing that all along, but suddenly FCPX and Compressor 4 will not allow me to create and AIF file bigger then 4gig.  It claims that the file format does not support sizes above 4

    Hi...
    per def. WAV 32bit does not support larger files than 4GB (sometimes 2GB).
    You can use the BroadCast WAV format. Which will enable that.
    However, if the destination format (Your final movie you wanna export to in Compressor and Fcpx) is WAV and not broadcast WAV it wont work due to the 4GB limit.
    Aiff is limited as well.
    Here are a few sources:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcast_Wave_Format

    PS --- WHy do you need more than 6 hours of uncomressed 16 Bit audio for a movie ???

  • Mac OS X can not copy files...?

    I am very new to Mac OS X and I found it strange that I can not copy files from my hard drive (docs, spreadsheets) to a blank CD-ROM disk. I called the local Apple store and they said I have to buy a third party application to copy(burn) files to CD-ROM disks. I am not talking about copying copyrighted files, just plain old Word and Excel docs. Does anyone know if this is true? I have to get a separate application to do this? Thanks, Tony.

    You can certainly copy files to to a blank CD without extra programs. But once there is data on the disc, it becomes much more complicated to add data at a later date.
    Windows, however, had a proprietary CD filesystem that let you use the CD like a floppy disc, where you could add and "erase" files randomly.
    You can buy an inexpensive program called BurnAgain that does something similar on the Mac.
    http://freeridecoding.com/burnagaindvd/
    Frankly, though, I think CDs make bad floppy discs. There is much more chance for data corruption when they are re-written.
    I'd recommend an inexpensive USB Thumbdrive (Flashdrive). They come in all sizes and really do work like a giant floppy disk -- only much faster. They are dirt cheap. You can find one the capacity of a CD for about $10 or less. DVD-size flashdrives are now under $40 some places.
    The easy way to burn data (once) to a CD or DVD is to create a Burn Folder. Hold down the CTL key and click once on your desktop. You'll get a pop-up menu with a choice to create a New Burn Folder. Name the Folder what you want the Disc to be named. Then open the folder and drag the files or folders you want to Burn onto the burn folder. It will actually create links (aliases or shortcuts in Windows terms) to those items. Click on the burn button at the top of the folder and it will ask for you to insert a blank CD or DVD.
    You can discard the burn folder if you are through with it, because it just contains alias (shortcuts). But I must warn you that if you navigate into the subfolders of those shortcuts, you will be dealing with your actual files. So please, don't delete anything inside a folder inside a burn folder -- those are your real files!

  • I have protected pdf files. You can not copy things, but it is allowed to print. In the menu of the pdf it says you are allowed to print. I already printed lots of times the document. But today there is an error "The printer is not admittet to print these

    I have protected pdf files. You can not copy things, but it is allowed to print. In the menu of the pdf it says you are allowed to print. I already printed lots of times the document. But today there is an error "The printer is not admittet to print these pdf". Its new. Theres no problem with the printer. I can print word documents, internet pages etc. But today I can not print anymore my pdf document, although printing is allowed and only copying is forbidden.
    How to solve the problem with the pdf?
    Thank you.

    Hi Hans,
    There seems to be other restrictions in the document that's not allowing it to print.
    Would it be possible to share the document with me so that I can have a look?

  • I can't import photos from a card, file or anything.  I get "could not copy a file to the requested location"..  This has never happened before.

    I can't import photos from a card, file or anything.  I get "could not copy a file to the requested location".  I have never had this happen before.  I use a MacBook Pro

    I also have the exact same issue.  New IMac, installed LR, imported approximately 900 photos no problem, across the network from a Windows PC.   The import stopped when the network connection was lost.   Now I cannot import for the same reason "could not copy a file to the requested location".  I have plenty of disk space and i have permission to the needed folders.   I cannot even import from a folder already on the IMac.   

  • Can not copy files to another hard drive for backup

    30May07
    Apple Support:
    I need to copy files from my home to an external hard drive because I need to do a complete re-install, and erase the laptop's hard drive.
    When I try to either move the home folder the icon is a house, I get an question stating that some of my files do not have permssions, do I want to continue anyway (Yes, I do!)
    A bit into the move, I get this message (dealing with permissions):
    Can not copy 1528.emix . Error code -36 .
    I have no such file or any .emix files either. I was able to copy to whole hard disk, not just the home to the same external drive two weeks ago.
    How can I copy my HOME to my external drive so I can reinstall the OS?
    Thank you for your help

    07Jun07
    I believe the problem was my computer's internal drive. It corrupted several files. I had a very hard time copying the files. The -36 error stopped any transfer cold.
    I did a complete install of the OS.
    I need a way to determine what files are corrupt so I can delete them. It took 24 hours to constantly keep trying to copy the files to the external drive. I ended up deleting a lot of un-corrupt files. How can I determine which ones are bad so I don't delete good data?
    Thank you for your help. I am also grateful to the Apple Store in Tucson, AZ.
    You are having a hardware problem - there's a problem
    on one of the drives in this story.
    This can be caused by extra hardware connected to the
    computer, so if you have anything extra connected to
    the computer (external iSight, iPod, USB hub,
    anything) disconnect it.
    If that doesn't help, try reformatting the external
    drive and try again.
    If that doesn't help, just rescue what you can,
    because the next step is that you're going to be
    reformatting the internal drive.

  • "Could not copy a file to the requested location." error

    Hi - I'm running Adobe Lightroom 1.4.1 (latest) on my iMac which is running Leopard's latest version. Suddenly I'm getting an error when importing to Lightroom. I have used different CF cards, so I'm sure it's Lightroom. Either one or two photos import (out of a large amount - this happens whether in RAW or JPG) and then it quits with a pop-up, which at the very top says "Import Results", and under there it says, "Some import operations were not performed." In the space below there's a header that says, "Could not copy a file to the requested location. (92)" (Not always 92, sometimes 200 or something else), and there is a triangle to expand and all the photo file names are listed below.
    Everything was running fine until yesterday, nothing changed. I have screen shots of the error if needed. Help??? Please! I have so many photos to import!
    Thanks for any help,
    Aviva

    Same problem here only with images burned to disks today, it is fine with images burned to disks 3 days ago. This is happening on two computers one is running XP with Lightroom 1.4 the other is running Vista with Lightroom 1.3. I can import one image at a time but no batches off DVD or CD disks, I have not tried directly from my CF cards. We have found a work around; download all images to temp folder on desktop then import into Lightroom after imported delete files in temp folder it works but takes a lot more time and space on hard drive.
