HT201372 The copy of the installer app failed.

I'm trying to create a USB bootable with Yosemite, but the process doesn't complete.
I launched the command from terminal as explained here 
/Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/YOSEMITE/ --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite.app
and I got the following output:
Ready to start.
To continue we need to erase the disk at /Volumes/YOSEMITE/.
If you wish to continue type (Y) then press return: Y
Erasing Disk: 0%... 10%... 20%... 30%...100%...
Copying installer files to disk...
The copy of the installer app failed.
Everything goes fine until almost the end. It seems the USB volume is unmounted abruptly because it disappears from the desktop and I got the message asking to eject it before removing it. After that, I get the error that the copy of the installer fails.
I'm running OS X 10.10.1, I downloaded the Yosemite Image from App Store.
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

You can make a bootable USB stick to install using this free program which will do all the work for you.

    I use lightroom with the soft proofing feature for my printing. I used to make a copy proof, but all of the sudden something changed, and even if I'm on the copy in the developing mode it prints the original. Also, If i chose a file that was already in light room to print, even though I have the chosen file up in the developing mode, it will instead print the most recent file that I added to lightroom. If found a way to work around these problems, (check make this the copy in the soft proofing, and copy my settings and delete and reload the old files) but it's a slight hassle and it didn't use to do this. Not sure why it changed. Could I have accidentally changed a setting?

  • Error while activating the copy of the standard module

    Hi,
    I wanted to create a copy of the module material_read_all and so I copied the entire function group.
    Now when I am trying to activate it , I am getting syntax error saying that the field does not exist in the global declarations. When I double click on the field name it takes me to another modules of the same function group where the said field is an export parameter.
    I cross checked with the standard module and there also no explicit declaration is given. I also tried declaraing the variable again and then activating.But on doing it I got different results from both the modules for the same input and so I had to delete and create it again.
    The same thing is happening with other modules also which I am trying to copy.
    Can anyone please help me with this.
    For copying the function group I entered the main program name in se38 and clicked on copy. It then asked me to copy the modules so I just added 'Z' before the modules to make a duplicate copy.
    It is very very urgent.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    I have tried activating all the includes individually and then the main program. But still I am getting the errors. While activating the includes on checking for the syntax error it showed error but on clicking on activating it got activated. But same thing sis not working for the main program.
    I also tried with 'activate anyway' but even after that syntax errors are there with the field decalrations.

  • How do I place photos in a "sub album" and delete original from camera roll while keeping the copy in the sub album?

    I'm able to create as many albums as I want under the main camera roll. from what I can see, I can add photos from my camera roll to an album but the two images are connected. so what happens is when I try to create albums according to event or subject, if I wanted to delete the original from the camera roll, it also deletes the copied image. What gives? Is there a way to have multiple albums on iphone where images won't be deleted?

    No, the actual photos always remain in the camera roll.  Albums only contain pointers to selected photos in the camera roll.  They are like music playlists.  If you delete a song from your music library it will also be deleted from any playlist that contained it.  And you can't keep songs in a playlist that are not in your music library.

  • When I copy an excel spreadsheet to an email - the receiver does not receive the copy of the spreadsheet???

    With IE, this is not a problem. With Firefox, when I copy part of a spreadsheet and paste it to an email, when the email is sent, the person receiving the email does not get the information from the spreadsheet - it disappears??

    Should that read "when I copy an artist over to itunes and that particular artist has multiple albums," because if not, I don't understand?
    If I'm right about that, I'm still not really clear at all about what you're doing. Where are you importing these songs and albums from? Is it existing songs files and if so, what format are they in?

  • How can I save a page complete so that I can take our a print later on with its complete texts and pictures.I want that the copy of the page when printed should be exactly the same with all the details.

    When save a web page and try to take out print the pictures in the web page are not coming in the print.I want to know how to save the webpage so that when I take its print it comes out in its entirety without loosing any details of the original webpage.

    If you drop down the "Save as Type" list in the Save page dialog, you have the choices of HTML only (images not saved to your computer) and HTML complete (images are saved to your computer). Neither of these is perfect.
    If you really need a record of what you see today, I suggest printing the page to PDF. There are a number of free print-to-PDF products, as well as paid ones. This isn't perfect either, because some sites look different in print than on screen, but it avoids the problem of sites changing or links breaking after your browsing session ends, etc.
    If you have an example of a page that can't be printed as it appears on the screen, you could post a URL. For example, many blogs print in an "unstyled" format.

  • After one week of using Garageband, a exact copy of the app appeared. I deleted the copy but the also original app was deleted. When I try to downloaded from the App Store again, it appeared that the app has already been accepted but I can´t find the app

    It appears that it is in the purchases list, but it is not there, HELP

    The reason, I included the annotation that I'd upgraded my Itunes, (On my Computer) is B/C in many forums - the very first question, *HELPERS* ask, is. "Do you have the latest version of Itunes downloaded on your computer." I wanted to knock out any obvious replies.
    Now-  "DO YOU have any idea,"... how your UNHELPFUL remarks, do absolutely nothing but hurt others that might not have the EXPERIENCE you have? How do you expect people to know things without asking questions? Whew! RUDE!!

  • How to restore the previous version of an app?

    Hi,
    I would like to restore the previous version of an iphone APP. I hate the new version. I deleted the new version of the app on my Iphone 4 and also on Itunes. I use windows 7 pro. Is there a way to get the previous version of that app? I use Itunes 11, which is the newest version I believe. I have done several backups this year and last year, if that helps. But I am not sure if the app was backed up as well. I know where the back ups are store in my computer. I dont know much about Itunes, can someone help please?
    Thanks,
    Strupar

    If you have the older version in your recycle bin, or one of your backups, delete the current version of the .ipa file, then paste in a copy of the old one. In iTunes go to the apps section of your library and attempt to Get Info for the app in question. Normally the two versions will have slightly different file names so iTunes may ask you to locate the file, do so. On your device delete the copy of the app, then sync with iTunes. You'll need to disable all forms of automatic updating, and will lose any settings and data associated with the app.
    Hmm, offhand I can't recall if automatic updating in iOS 7 is optional. Check that first.

  • How do I get the numbers ipad app to plot a graph of dates against values, where the most recent date is on the right of the graph, but the most recent date is at the top rather than bottom of the rows in the table?

    How do I get the numbers ipad app to plot a graph of dates against values, where the most recent date is on the right of the graph, but the most recent date is at the top rather than bottom of the rows in the table?
    Also how can it be a line graph without plotting a circle at each value?
    Thanks this is very frustrating

    Make a copy of the table and produce your Line chart or Bar chart from the copy. Sort the copy into the order you want to see in your chart.
    Alternately you could use a Scatter Chart...

  • ABAP+JAVA Systemcopy - Wrong sapgw after the copy

    For our BI system, we did an ABAP+JAVA systemcopy that appeared to complete successfully.  Both ABAP and JAVA start cleanly but when we execute the URL to logon through the Java, we now get this error:
    Application error occurred during request processing.
      Details:   java.lang.NullPointerException: null
    Exception id: [001E0B50DDFD002C0000000000006655000483965C5A18B6]
    In my server0 logs, I find the following issue:
    [Thr 198] *  ERROR       partner 'localhost:sapgw55' not reached
    That is the sapgw from our Production system, not the refreshed Development system. Obviously, I made a mistake somewhere in the copy.  The question is whether this can be resolved post-refresh?  Or do I have to do the whole systemcopy over again (a big task)?
    The ABAP side works find so I'm really baffled as to how this sapgw could be off only on the Java side. 
    Thanks.

  • I made a copy of my iWeb domain file, but now both the copy and original is empty!

    Please help. I am freaking out. I wanted to make a back-up of my domain file. I made a copy, so I could rename it, instead. when I opened it, it is empty! I have just lost two webistes! Is there anything I can do?

    What is the size of the original domain file? A new domain file with one page is around 160 KB in size.  If you domain file is much larger then it probably does have the files in it that make up your sites but probable has some damaged files in it preventing iWeb from opening correctly.
    If that's the case move the copy to the Desktop and try the following:
    close iWeb.
    delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    go to your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
    reboot.
    launch iWeb and try again.
    If that doesn't help continue with:
    move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
    launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
    go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
    move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
    launch iWeb and try again.

  • How can I get a copy of the OS 9.2.2 operating system cd

    I was given a new 2003 iMac M6498 but does not have any software and I am wondering how or where can I get hold of the copy of the OS 9.2.2 operating system cd to install.

    You need the computer's original disks to install Classic, and either those or a retail 10.3 through 10.5.6 DVD to install an OS on the machine. Phone AppleCare and ask if they still have replacements in stock, or check sites such as Amazon or eBay.
