Error message when trying create image from RAID

I am trying to backup my RAID (697 GB) by creating an image (Disk Utility) on an external firewire drive. The settings are Read Only - I get an error message "image/device is too large"
Is my RAID too large at 697GB to create an image?
Thanks,
Steven

You have all 4 drives striped on the external drive?
I'm not sure it will work -- an image may need to have 2x its actual size during creation. I'd have to check to be 100% sure.
I think, though, it would be a lot better if you just did a pure "dupe," of the files from one volume onto another, rather than creating an image. It will be a ton easier.

  • Error message when trying to download from Mac App Store

    When I try to download an app in the Mac App Store I get an error message:  "We could not complete your purchase.  Error Unknown."  Sometimes it says: "There is an error in the Mac App Store".  This has been going on for a couple of days now.  I have tried signing out of the Mac App Store, logging out of my User Account, and then signing back in, as has been suggested in other threads.  But that did not work. 
    Suggestions? 

    Here is an update and more information:  I actually have two MBP's.  One is a mid-2009 model and one is a new, mid-2012.  I transferred files from the mid-2009 to the mid-2012, but I use both computers frequently.  This problem only occurs on the mid-2009 and not on the mid-2012.  I have authorized both computers. 

  • Error message when trying to print from the Preview

    When I'm trying to print from the preview menu I have an error message and it won't print. Anything to do with recent upgrade to OS Lion?

    I have an error message
    (1) The error message is a crash report. If you wish to post something like this here, it's better to copy the text of the report and paste in your post, rather than posting a screenshot.
    (2) According to the report, the crash was caused by a memory error apparently generated by a component of a Xerox printer driver. The component is a PDE (printer dialog extension) made by EFI; PDEs are used by printers with features not supported by the Mac's standard print interface.
    If you recently updated to Lion, it is possible that you are using a printer driver which is not fully compatible with Lion. Check with both Xerox and Apple if they have an updated printer driver; contact Xerox tech support; and check if there is a support forum for Xerox printers where you may ask this question.
    Bonne chance!

  • Error message when trying to email from iPhoto

    Just spoke to Apple support because I was unable to email from iPhoto unless I went through Mail (i.e. no templates). I had struggled with this for some months. The patient and helpful Apple people solved the problem after a couple of hours. Two-step verification in iCloud was the source. Since the email originates in the iPhoto app, it is necessary to use an app-specific password in iPhoto/ preferences/accounts/iCloud account.
    That's why my wife's computer didn't have the problem. She doesn't have two-step verification enabled.
    Thanks to Apple for the excellent support.

    Yes, LarryHN is right - two-step verification seems to be causing this problem in some cases.
    Other forum members reported, that creating  an app-specific password is required, see the post below:
    Re: I am using iPhoto version 9.6 and I can no longer get an email sent with a photo attached. I get an error message saying the email did not go through because the server did not reply. I can send the photo with Mail. Help!in response to Gary Kissler
    This solution is for those of you using 2-step verification for your Apple ID and are using iCloud as the mail server that you are trying to mail photos with.
    I too had this issue. The problem in my case occurred because I had setup 2-step authentication for my Apple ID. If you have done this then you will get the error message "the mail server did not recognize your email/password...". To solve the problem go to:
    https://appleid.apple.com
    Click "Manage Your Apple ID"
    Verify your identity with the device you selected (if this step does not show up then you have not likely set up 2-step authentication and this is not your solution)
    Click Password and Security in the left column
    Click Generate an app-specific password
    Enter iPhoto as the name of the app
    Copy the password and paste this into the password box in iPhoto where you would normally enter your apple ID (in the mail account section in iPhoto preferences).
    And...voila' (I hope)

    Wow, that's the first time I think I've ever seen that solution!  Very happy you were able to get this solved.  I'm not sure what would cause this to fail, maybe some sort of permission issue with the desktop folder?  If you have a chance, would you mind emailing me ([email protected]) the following log file?  I'd love to take a look and see if we caught anything with our error reporting.

  • Error message when trying to upgrade from 10.3.9 to Tiger 10.4.5

    Hope somebody can help. I'm fairly recent to macs as have always built and used pcs. Am having trouble upgrading from current pantherOS to Tiger. Bought emac with upgrade disc provided by seller. Disc was gray labelled emac. Installation went fine and everything was proceeding to point it finished writing files, configuring installation, and running installer scripts and then it quit with message: error installing software. Try reinstalling.
    Tried reinstallation and same thing occurred. then Tried complete erase and new installation. Same error message.
    Came to discussion group searching for something I might be doing wrong. Decided maybe disc was wrong even though it specified emac which is what I am using. Bought generic install disc that would install on any G3/4/5 with minimum specs per hardware which system met.Installation proceeded as it was going to install same as emac disc. This is normal full install disc for generic installation.
    All installations screens came up and installation proceeded to same point as before and then quit with same message: error installing software/ Try reinstalling.
    Have removed ram to original 256MB and tried. No luck. I am using external DVD for installation of DVD and wonder if this is problem but in the forums external DVD seems to work alright. Can reinstall old Panther OS without any problem
    Ran hardware test and everything checked okay.
    Should I just forget about upgrading and use 10.3.9 but would really like to know what is wrong. thanks. Rick

  • Error message when trying to update from 4.1 to 4.2

    I went to update my iphone4 to 4.2 from 4.1 and got the following message:
    "There are purchased items on the iPhone that have not been transfered to your iTunes library. You should transfer these items to your iTunes library before updating this iPhone. Are you sure you want to continue?" Cancel/Continue.
    So I synced my phone, not once but twice, and I don't have new purchases to transfer yet I still get this message. I also left clicked on the left bar on itunes and selected "transfer purchases". Still, I get the error message. Am I missing something or should I just go ahead and update to 4.2.
    Thanks in advance.

    For iPhone and iPod touch Apps. This works for Windows computer and Mac OS X
    1. Connect your iPhone or iPod to computer, and then iTunes will detect your device automatically.
    2. Right click on your iPhone or iPod in iTunes and select “Transfer Purchases”. You should see a progress bar in iTunes and your phone should read “Sync in Progress”.
    3. This process will copy all of your purchased files (including Apps, Games, Movie, etc.) into iTunes library, (Tips: In order not to miss Apps, you can select your iPhone in iTunes and then go to the “Applications” tab, and make sure that all of the apps are selected.)
    4. If everything went as planned, all of your Apps, Games, Movies that were purchased on your iPhone or iPod touch should now appear in iTunes.

  • Getting error message when trying to gowmload from...

    Error message : this phone is already registered for unlimited subscription

    Hi VinuNRz and Rameshy,
    Thank you for posting and welcome to the forum! 
    This message means that your phone's IMEI has already been linked with a Nokia account other than the one that you're currently using. This may happen if a different Nokia account was registered and used to subscribe to the Nokia Music service using the device. One possible scenario is if your device was used for sales demo wherein the seller registers a dummy Nokia account to demonstrate the phone and it's features. The Nokia Music requires only one Nokia account or one device IMEI per registration. 
    The best action is to contact Nokia Support. You can contact them here: nokia.com/support

  • Getting "layer break" error message when trying to Preview a single sided DVD, or build an ISO image or disk folder

    Hi!  Hoping someone might be able to help with an odd problem.  I haven't found anything in the forums or the web that match my symptoms.
    I've been using Encore CS6 (v6.0.1.013) on a MacBook retina over the past year to successfully create a number of single sided DVDs with menus, chapters, and all that.  I usually make a copy of a previous DVD project, and then replace video assets with the new files and transcodes, move and rename chapter markers, and rework the menus in Photoshop.  I then will build ISO images for both DVD and Blu-Ray (both single-sided), and use those to burn many copies of each DVD for clients.
    This week, while developing one of these projects, when trying to build a DVD ISO image that looked like it would fit on a 4.7 GB DVD, I received the "layer break" message ("The chosen layer break does not satisfy dual layer requirements.  To fix this, either set a new layer break manually, or choose to set layer break automatically.") because (I'm guessing) the material was too long for the 4.7 GB DVD (the Build screen now shows about 5GB of material are in the project).  This is the first time I've seen that message - usually Encore just tells me the material is too big for the DVD.
    I re-transcoded the material down to well under 4.7 GB (about 3.9 GB), reverted and replaced the transcoded files, and now the DVD build screen shows that there are about 700MB free on a 4.7 GB DVD.  But I still have not been able to build any version of the DVD (image, folder, disc), without getting the "layer break" message.  I also now get this same layer break message when trying to "Preview from Here" any menu, killing my ability to preview the DVD menus in Encore.
    Just to see what would happen, I chose an 8.4GB Dual Layer DVD, and chose "manual" instead of "automatic" for the layer break selection, but never got the layer break selection dialog box, just the "layer break" error message.
    I typically build both DVD and Blu-Ray images from the same material in the same project.  I use different transcoding settings for each, and I have been able to build a Blu-Ray ISO without this "layer break" error on the Blu-Ray build (which is about 24.5GB when built).  And as I mentioned before, this is the first project on which I've even seen this layer break message.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!  I'd rather not recreate the project from scratch, but I'm worried that I may have to.
    Thanks
    Jon

    The total project being small enough may mean you have one layer that is too big. Both layers have to be smaller than half the disk, right?
    Be sure you "run as administrator" for dual layer projects.
    Encore may set the layer break correctly if it finds a good place, but there are numerous complaints about it being unreliable.
    Build to a folder (no layer break is set), then use ImgBurn to build and ask to be prompted for layer break. ImgBurn is also unreliable under some circumstances.
    The most frequent problems appear to be when there is no good location for a break. Do a search for "layer break imgburn" and you will see a variety of strategies.

  • Error message when trying to create a unique name

    Why do I keep getting an Error message when trying to create a unique name for a location on your site. I am simply looking to use your free 2GB space to store some pics and vids but keep getting an error message.

    How come Leopard let me use the WGM in standard mode?
    While SA complains that it won't work in Standard Configuration, WGM does not. There is some fault in the logic of this for which I don't have an explanation.
    If I want to get control on Dock, selection of Home folder, config of Proxy... which I think are basic things, do I really need the advanced mode?
    If you wish to have complete control of all client settings, yes. There really is no disadvantage of using an Advanced configuration other than the learning curve.
    So if I switch to advanced mode, there is good chance I won't get this error message anymore, right?
    Yes.
