Error  -- Result Code -54 HELP PLEASE!!!!!!

I've been recording 10-20 minute stories on my macbook for a while now (I'm an elementary school teacher) and today I recorded a 45 min interview. I opened the new track and picked the real audio option and saved it to the desktop. I began to record it and checked in the middle and it was fine. When I finished, though, I tried to turn the recording off and it said "An Error Occurred. Result Code = -54". I don't know what to do! Did it "auto-save"? I'm a new mac user so I don't know much about macs. I'm scared to shut my computer off in case I lose all that information but now its been sitting with the colorful rolling ball for about 10 minutes.

"An Error Occurred. Result Code = -54"
a -54 is a permissions error. this could mean that your account doesn't have permission to read or write to a directory, or perhaps the "permissions" are set wrong. Try repairing Permissions:

rolling ball for about 10 minutes.
unfortunately that sounds like, for whatever reason, GB has locked up (permissions repair can often solve this problem as well)
Did it "auto-save"?
there is no "auto save", however, if the data was written to disc, it may be salvageable. you may as well force quit GB:
http://www.bulletsandbones.com/GB/GBFAQ.html#forcequit
because the data is either there or it isn't, waiting will not change that.
after you've quit GB, post back with the file size of the project

  • I/O Error: Result Code=-36  HELP!!!

    Anyone got any idea what this is about? The problem in a nutshell is as follows...
    I'm running Logic 7.2.3 on a G5 (PowerPC version) with a dedicated, built in 250gig HD for audio. Over the last week I've suddenly become aware that everything I thought was being saved to this HD is impossible to access anymore and I get the above error code coming up each time.
    However, anything recorded to this HD prior to the last week still opens fine with no issues at all.
    Tell me I'm being stupid and have done something ridiculous, please!!! There's a whole lot of work down the drain if that's not the case.
    Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I have never experienced that error, but I Googled "I/O Error: Result Code=-36" and found this...
    It really has nothing to do with Logic. It is a Mac OSX error being passed on
    by Logic. It has to do with not being able to write to the drive. You can
    get this error in Logic if your recording drive is too full, is too
    fragmented, or the directory is messed up.
    Some things you can do to solve the problem are: Make sure you are recording
    to a drive other then the system drive, make sure you have plenty of free
    space on the recording drive, repair permissions, defrag the recording
    drive, or run a disk utility like Disk Warrior to check and repair directory
    issues.

  • I/O error result code= -36 ???? Please help!!

    Im running studio with apogee duet, just got the apple care (god bless it) superdrive replacement, now I get audio input output functioning realtime, but *** soon as I attempt to record the error pops up. I cant find anyone else with this problem, and apogee unfortunately was clueless. I find it strange that an I/O error is occurring when I pass audio in/out no problem. It blasts the error as soon as I press that quick key R.
    I'm running ProTools8 in the meantime on a MBox and it feels so inadequate/fake/unprofessional/. Show me why it was a good thing apple bought out E-Magic fellas!!!
    P.S. where do you guy get the definitions of these codes?

    I have seen similar threads that suggest this is a known issue with this version of Acrobat but I would like conformation from Adobe that this is a known issue and whether it is fixed in a newer version?
    Adobe Acrobat version 10.1.13
    SharePoint 2010

    Hi quodd,,
    We are sorry for the issue being faced by you. I need some information from you so that I take further steps:
    1. Which Adobe product are you using Acrobat or Adobe reader- what is the complete version?
    2. How are you opening and saving the PDF, the exact workflow?
         Are you doing it from within Adobe Reader/Acrobat application or opening it from browser, doing changes and saving it using browser itself.
    3. Can you try to save a PDF to library with Custom template and managed metadata columns using browser directly.
    4. Please verify that columns name do not contain spaces or some other special characters.
       Can you try to save PDF to library with Custom template and just a single managed metadata column  with a simple name
    Thanks,

  • Error Result Code -48?  Help...won't record!

    I use G-band for basic VO recording in my home studio into my Powerbook. I run a simple stereo line-in and record to a completely basic stereo track. Nothing fancy. This has worked flawlessly for months.
    Just now, in mid-session, I click on the red Record button and I get this message: Error Result Code -48. It doesn't begin to record at all. The message is immediate, and it won't record.
    This program is pretty vital to my business. Can anyone help me figure this out?? I have restarted the program, shutdown and restarted the Powerbook. No luck.
    Any help?!

    You could try some web searches. I just know some of them because I've run into them while programming, and have some notes scattered about here and there for some of the less common ones, but not all of them.

  • "Error Result code = -43" AND "Audio file not found"

    In Garageband I was trying to  click Join, but kept getting "Error Result code = -43"
    What does this mean?
    Also, I thought saving the file and restarting Garageband would help, but upon re-opening the program BIG problem: the file (just this one, others are opening fine) has this error message upon opening "Audio file “07 I See the Light.aif” not found!"

    mcgregorsgal wrote:
    so do I have to basically start over?
    for that one recording, it looks like it.
    the error -43 is a system level error, so i HIGHLY doubt this will help, however you can ctrl-click the project file, choose Show Package Contents, open the media folder and preview any audio files in there to see if the missing file is there, but in all likelihood, you will need to re-record it

  • Mac OS error Result Code = 1852402768

    I have been using Handbrake to covert video files into apple TV format for a number of years & then every now & again burning the file to DVD which has worked fine.
    I don't know if this is just a coincidence but I downloaded a Handbrake update last night & then tried burning the newly converted files and using Toast Titanium but i received the following error "Mac OS error' Result Code = 1852402768"
    I've searched the forums and many suggest that the files could be too large for the DVD but there is a display on Toast that shows the size of the files & I can usually get 3 half hour episodes on no problem with free space remaining but to test this theory I dropped in just one file of less than a GB and the same error came up.
    I did however try burning some older files pre the handbrake update & they have worked fine.
    I don't know if I have to change any setting but currently I'm stuck, Any help out there??
    Many thanks

  • I/O Error result code -36: Logic bug, or Mac OSX bug?

    Hello-
    I encountered a problem in Logic Pro 8 today that severely damaged one of my audio files in my session. I was working in the sample editor, and I went to copy and paste an audio fragment. When I tried to paste the audio, this error came up:
    "I/O Error, result code = -36"
    After that, the cursor turned into a black and white spinner, and the audio file that I was working with suddenly was altered in a way that somehow erased a portion of it in the song. I had to ability to undo, view the changes in the audio file, etc, etc. It was damaged irreversibly, and I had to end up re-recording that segment. Does anyone know why this happens, and is it a bug in Logic?
    BTW, I have over 500 gigs free on the external drive that I am recording to, and nothing has changed, hardware-wise on my system in over 6 months... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    This sounds like one of two things that I have seen with this error :
    1.- your external hard drives' connection to the computer is not 100% stable (loose cable...dusty environment...)
    2.- Your audio device, is ti FireWire too? Is it daisy chained to this external hard drive? Maybe the order of the daisy chaining needs to be looked at.
    Cheers

  • I/O Error Result Code -36

    I'm trying to record a new track in an existing project, and every time a hit the record button I get an I/O Error Result Code -36. This is only happening in this particular project. If I open a new project I can record just fine. What does this mean? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi,
       I've been trying to solve this problem for a school my companey has set up. After some research and looking at a number of similar posts I tracked the problem down to loops that came with jam packs or with apps like soundtrack pro. These loops are located in /Library/audio/appleloops. If you give everyone read and write access to this folder and it items the loops seem to work.
    I also noticed that once the loops were working agin GB had to convert the sample rate so it's possible that it's the sample rate on certain loops that causess the issue or prehaps the need to change the rate.
    Hope this helps.

  • Mac OS Error Result Code 1634955892

    The subject error message is what I got when I tried to copy a DVD that would not play all the way using Toast, to se if I could recover. It says after exttracting the DVD and putting in the media that it cannot record because of a Mac OS error result code 1634955892. What the !!!???>> does this mean?

    I found this reference to that error code, but it seems complicated to me: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA26910?viewlocale=en_US
    So, I did more searching and found this:
    http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Uk/uk.comp.sys.mac/2006-07/msg00364.html which is a sort-of explanation with no fix.
    And this: http://www.tivoblog.com/archives/2007/11/18/roxio-releases-updated-version-of-to ast-popcorn-now-supports-tivo-92-leopard/
    which seems to imply that Toast/Popcorn need to be updated for DVD copying.
    Apparently this error code comes up when there are compatibility issues.
    Have you tried extracting the DVD data using other software such as Handbrake, Ripit or MPEG Streamclip?
