Error while relocating (Can't create folder)

I have been running a referenced library for some time now. I seem to have run into a problem where I can no longer move originals from my hard drive to the referenced external drive.
When trying to do so, I get the following message:
Error while relocating (Can’t create folder)
Any ideas what has changed and how to fix this error?
Thanks
Robert

I did the verify disk from drive utility, checked out as ok. I decided to run the repair disk anyways. I first chose the name of the drive "1 TB Seagate" and all was well with both verify and repair.
I then chose "GoFlex Aperture" and did the same. Verify was fine, but as you can see, something is amiss with trying to repair it.
Here's the get info grab.
Here's the console shot, did find something about the goflex aperture database drive, although that is far beyond my ability to comprehend.
I appreciate your help. I'm running to the post office, be back in a bit.
Thanks,
Robert

  • Error while relocating (Can't write file (no space)) - Help please

    I have been having trouble relocating master files since upgrading to Leopard. The problem doesn't seem to affect only Aperture. I can happen when using Finder or another application to move files from one drive to another. Other types of files don't seem to be affected, just my library of image files.
    The copy operation runs for a while then hangs up. The application doing the copy reports an error that that's the end. Aperture gives this error message: Error while relocating (Can’t write file (no space)). The Finder reports plenty of available space on the destination drive!
    I remember seeing a thread--but can't find it now--about a problem with certain xmp metatdata embedded into files causing problems with file operations.
    Hoping for a solution!

    It's possible that you might have a corrupt file. Have you tried to copy different files on to the destination drive? If those files copy fine, then narrow down the offending file by copying less images at a time.

  • Error while relocating ("filename" couldn't be moved to "Folder".) "(null)"

    I am trying to relocate all my referenced files from my HD to a NAS.
    For a number of images I get the error :
    Error while relocating ("filename" couldn't be moved to "Folder".) "(null)"
    I have been checking the Aperture Log and found things like:
    Jan  5 22:03:37 big-mac.fritz.box Aperture[730]: could not set attributes com.apple.metadata:kMDItemDownloadedDate on destination file descriptor: Invalid argument: Invalid argument
    Jan  5 22:03:37 big-mac kernel[0]: Aperture[730] Unable to quarantine `/Volumes/imacjan/Pictures/Aperture_Ref_Files/Fotoos_Jan/2012/2012 Diversen/evelien.jpg': 22 (error suppressed)
    Jan  5 22:03:37 big-mac.fritz.box Aperture[730]: could not set attributes com.apple.metadata:kMDItemWhereFroms on destination file descriptor: Invalid argument: Invalid argument
    Jan  5 22:03:37 big-mac.fritz.box Aperture[730]: error processing extended attributes: Invalid argument
    From here I dived into the xattr "thing".
    Apparently Mac OSX is setting extra attributes on files, besided the normal UNIX attributes.
    So I opened a Terminal session and gave the command:
    xattr /Users/imacjan/Pictures/Referenced\ Files/Fotoos\ Jan/2012/2012\ Diversen/eve*.*
    which resulted in:
    com.apple.FinderInfo
    com.apple.metadata:kMDItemDownloadedDate
    com.apple.metadata:kMDItemWhereFroms
    Then I did my normal :
    ls -l /Users/imacjan/Pictures/Referenced\ Files/Fotoos\ Jan/2012/2012\ Diversen/eve*.*
    which resulted in :
    -rw-r--r--@ 1 imacjan  staff  39963 Dec 25  2011 /Users/imacjan/Pictures/Referenced Files/Fotoos Jan/2012/2012 Diversen/evelien.jpg
    Looked quite normal to me, accept for the "@". Apperently thay is the sign that there are extended attributes
    So then I gave:
    ls -l -@ /Users/imacjan/Pictures/Referenced\ Files/Fotoos\ Jan/2012/2012\ Diversen/eve*.*
    Which resulted in:
    -rw-r--r--@ 1 imacjan  staff  39963 Dec 25  2011 /Users/imacjan/Pictures/Referenced Files/Fotoos Jan/2012/2012 Diversen/evelien.jpg
              com.apple.FinderInfo             32
              com.apple.metadata:kMDItemDownloadedDate             53
              com.apple.metadata:kMDItemWhereFroms            156
    Quetion 1 : does anybody know where I can find what value 32 for com.apple.FinderInfo means ? And for the other extra attributes?
    Next, I suspected the values of the extra attributes were preventing Aperture from relocating the imagel.
    So I proceeded with :
    xattr -c /Users/imacjan/Pictures/Referenced\ Files/Fotoos\ Jan/2012/2012\ Diversen/eve*.*
    I went back to Aperture and now the relocating went fine.
    It seems that all the images that my Aperture cannot relocate, are images that I downloaded from internet (sometimes nicked from a Facebook page, sometimes otherwise) and then imported into Aperture.
    I can manipulate them, I can export a version, I just cannot export the original file and thus I cannot reloctate them either.
    Question 2 : Is this normal behavior, or is this a bug in Aperture and should I file a bugreport?
    Question 3 : Is it save for me to use the "attr -c" command to clear all extra attributes?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Frank,
    Thanks.
    My HD is a "normal" HD, so I guess it's HFS+. (According to Disk Utility it is Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
    The NAS is WD MyBook Live Duo. I just plugged into my Time Machine.
    I am relocating using Aperture "relocate originals for project" under the File tab.
    Ahh, thanks for the answer to question 1.
    Yes, I am trying to relocate them, but tried different things to find the problem.
    And the problem seems to be that when an image gets an extra attribute (when it's downloaded from the internet, when it is comes from a mail message) then Aperture seems not to be able to move the file.
    I.e. Aperture presumeably asks the Finder or kernel to perform this task, and this then fails because of the extra attirbutes that were set.
    I now found a way of manually removing the extra attributes, but that is a pain.
    Think of this normal workflow:
    - someone sends me an email containing images
    - I move the images to my Desktop
    - I then import the images into Aperture
    - I then decide to relocate my images for that project to my NAS
    Then is when this problem occurs.
    So I just tried to relocate to another place on my HD.
    That works fine.
    I looked again at the error message.
    And it says "could not set attributes com.apple.metadata:kMDItemDownloadedDate on destination file descriptor" .
    So, yes, it seems like it has to do with the NAS not supporting setting the extra attributes.
    And as long as there are no extra attributes on an image, there is no problem.
    (Not completely true, but I have another thread about that)
    Thanks Frank, I have to digest this a bit.
    Regards

  • "Error while relocating" after deleting RAW from RAW+JPEG pairs (Important FYI)

    This is not a question, but something I recently discovered that I think will be important for the Aperture community.
    Not too long ago, I asked a question about how to remove the RAW files from RAW+JPEG pairs. The concensus was that it couldn't be done through Aperture, but that one could delete them through the Finder. The answer I got (and that has popped up in other threads on similar topics) was "it's probably not wise, but as far as I know, it won't have an adverse effect." I don't think any response along these lines has been able to point to a specific problem that can arise from such a "hack." Well, I found one today...
    It appears that if a user uses Finder to "break" RAW+JPEG pairs by deleting the RAW file and leaving the JPEG (and I assume this goes for deleting the reverse), Aperture will NOT be able to "Relocate Originals..." Instead, "Aperture will return the error: Error while relocating (File not Found): "(null)". I ran into this error the other day while trying to change my file structure by relocating all files. I regularly ran into this error, and it was only after some extensive that I was able to narrow it down 100% of the time to the RAW+JPEG pairs I had "broken." I haven't encounterd any other adverse behavior from "breaking" these file pairings, but this one, at least, could be serious.
    So, for future reference, I think the response by the Aperture community when someone asks "How do I delete the RAW file from RAW+JPEG" pairs, should be "Use Finder if you must, but please note Aperture will not be able to 'Relocate Originals..
    PS This should NOT be understood as a criticism of those who have responded to this question in the past. There's obviously no way to know about these little quirks until one of us stumbles across them. I hope this information will be helpful going forward, both as a caution when deleting one of the pair, and as a possible answer for the "Error while relocating" message.
    PPS I don't think I ran across an explanation for this when I originally searched for the error message bolded above.
    If someone has already provided this information, my apologies.

    Interesting the last post before this one you posted was back in May 2011 Removing RAW, keeping JPG?
    Thanks for that thread. That helps jog ye olde memory. As such, I would edit my original thread to read "The concensus I gathered from researching multiple responses to questions similar to mine was that it couldn't be done through Aperture*, but that it was possible from Finder though highly inadvisable." I won't bother recreating my research at the time (not even sure I could, since it was more than two years ago), but suffice it to say that the thread you've linked was not my sole encounter with this problem. I do appreciate that you've reminded me that this was not something I had done solely through numerous posts on Apple Discussions. I imagine I likely spent time reading multiple posts here and elsewhere, uncovering the concensus (which i think is still a fair term) that it could not be done through Aperture*, could be through Finder, but was inadvisable.
    *This is still accurate, afaik. You cannot delete the pair from a RAW+JPEG pair in Aperture. Exporting, then deleting in Finder, then reimporting is still not something "done in [entirely] Aperture."
    Frank Caggiano wrote:
    No one actually told you to delete anyting in in the Finder you came up with this yourself as your own solution
    This comes from the critical mistake on my part of not making clear that I was paraphrasing multiple responses rather than saying "Bob told on a Monday that i should..." That is one huge mea culpa and I'd edit it if I could. To be clear, my comment that "it's probably not wise, but as far as I know, it won't have an adverse effect" is a paraphrase of multiple answers to the broad question dealing with how Aperture handles files that have been deleted in Finder. At the time, it was known that you could delete a file in Finder, that Aperture could be made to accept that, that it might cause issues further down the road, but that those issues were unkown. I paraphrased that but failed to make it clear that's what I was doing. Again, my apologies.
    Frank Caggiano wrote:
    So I'm not really sure what it is you are coming back here now to say? There was no 'consensus' to do this, it was your own 'solution'
    In this respect, I think you've misunderstood me. At the time I made this post, I still was not seeing a direct connection between deleting files in Finder and adverse consequences in Aperture (or perhaps I should say my searches did not turn up such a connection). As such, I made this post to provide the community with clear evidence of why one should not delete one-of-a-pair files in Finder. Again, I may have simply missed the thread that detailed that to do so would result in a null error when relocating Masters. That said, in July 2013 I had been pulling my hair out trying to figure out why I was getting the null error and I did not see a thread that asked "have you deleted files in Finder" as a way to troubleshoot.
    Hopefully, I've cleared up any confusion now. To bring this all back around to my original point for the thread, I intended it to (1) offer a more direct way to troubleshoot the null error on relocating Masters, and (2) to offer a cautionary tale for those who choose to delete one of the RAW+JPEG pair in Finder. There are better (though more time- and space-consuming) ways to get it done, and my original post should help demonstrate why.

    This part is just the place in the program where the error occured, but why the error occured is mentioned earlier in the dump.
    Maybe you have a too big number in the field and hence a field overflow, maybe you have a character instead of a number in the field.

  • Error: ActiveX component can't create object: 'fdmFM11xG5C.clsFMAdapter'

    Hi,
    we recently configured HFM and FDM .. while testing hfm adapter to lookup target FM account from FDM web.. we get the error Error: ActiveX component can't create object: 'fdmFM11xG5C.clsFMAdapter'
    At Line: 45
    The adapter is running under service account. we are using 11.1.1.3
    Can some one please advise
    thanks

    Hello Vladislav,
    Your issue would not have anything to do at this point in time of having the HFM Client installed/not installed. While this is required and probably would cause an error at a later stage, it is not the root cause of the issue you are having now.
    It appears that either the Adapter is not installed correctly or not completely configured.
    Please follow the documentation posted with the adapter and perform a proper installation/configuration.
    Thank you,

  • Can't create folder when saving docs; can create on desktop but can't move

    This is boggling. When I choose "save" or "save as" for the first time in Word or Excel, and then "create new folder," it asks me to name the folder, and then tells me it can't create it. The error simply says "Could not create folder." So I created a new folder on the desktop, which worked fine, but when I tried to drag it into the folder I wanted it to live in, I got a pop-up that said "You cannot copy some of these items to the destination because their names are too long for the destination."
    1) There is only one item - an empty folder.
    2) The name of the folder is "blah" -- which is in no way too long.

    You might try running the Extension Manager as an administrator. I had difficulties installing extensions with CS3 on Vista and I think the situation persisted to some degree. This might not be the right answer for you, but it's worth a shot.
    To run as an administrator, go through your Start menu to All Programs, then the Adobe folder and find the Extension Manager. Instead of a clicking normally to launch the program, right-click and select "Run as administrator."
