JPEG Error Message Using USB Memory Stick
I have copied a folder containing photos exported from iphoto onto a USB stick. When trying to open the jpeg the following message appears.
Cannot open because JPEG marker segment length is too short (the file may be truncated or incomplete)
I deleted the files and checked out the stick using disk utility and carried out a repair I also checked that the format was FAT32. All seemed ok.
I copied the same folder again and this time half the jpegs can be opened and half can't.
This is only the 2nd time the stick has been used, the first time, same scenario, copy files from Mac, look at on PC, no problem. 2nd time encountered this error message.
I would like to be able to use the stick on both Mac & PC.
Any help gratefully appreciated.
It should appear on your desktop as a white HDD icon. Click on it. You may want to format it in Disk Utility.
Ciao.

Problems using USB memory sticks
Whenever i connect a memory stick with my macbook and try to delete a file off it, the file is moved to trash which is all well and good. But when i go to put anything back on it a message pops up saying that the memory is full.
Both times when i've encountered this problem i'd filled the memory stick with pictures and moved them onto a microsoft computer. Then i connected the memory stick back with my macbook and deleted all the photos from the stick by moving them to the trash can. When i go to put another load of pictures on it says its full. But there are no files on the stick!
Both times the USB memory stick can't be used, i've tried looking for any files on the microsoft computer but that can't find any or save anything to it.
Does anyone know anyway i can stop this problem and somehow get the memory stick to work again?Hi
Try reformatting your memory stick using Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility. If you want to move files between OS X and Windows then you'll need to select FAT 32 format.
You may find you need to reformat the stick each time you copy a batch of photos from one machine to another.

NB305-N440BL getting 0a-0224-0000 file transfer error message using USB Thumbdrive
Doing total out of the box restore.
First off, Toshiba, in their infinite wisdom sends a DVD Rom to you when you order a Recovery Media for a Netbook which has NO DVDROM. I had to replace the HD after an accident and it is unreadable as a harddrive and had no backup. As a result, the only thing I have left is to try and copy that to a Thumbdrive, because my backpack dvd writer is not recognized by the bios when booting. I have a thumb drive big enough and have tried power iso with an extract to the thumbdrive, doing xcopy from the CD Rm as outlined here and other methods:
http://www.wikihow.com/Install-Windows-from-a-USB-Flash-Drive
I get the same error using the above two methods and could not get any further, I have tried to format the drive and delete the data, but I still get the message.....I am at my wits end. Is there any software that will explode out the swm files on the DVD to what they are supposed to be so I can try to copy the raw files over and do a win to flash of version 7 with maybe some success????
Any help would be appreciated.I wouldn't try messing with transferring that data. You should call customer support and let them know about the mistake with the recovery media. It should have been sent on a USB stick.

when i download my pictures (in jpeg format) to a usb memory stick they cannot be opened on another computer ie not a mac, do i need to convert the file so that other computers can read it thanks Sam
Sam,
Format your stick with MS-DOS (FAT32) format. I use camera CF cards as memory stick and a good practice is to regularly format them: it deals with defragmentation effectively.
JPG is a standard, regardless of which application writes it and is readable by all applications supporting JPG.
Make sure you properly eject your usb stick when you take the it out of the usb port: it makes sure the OS closes all open files. -

Formatting/erasing USB memory stick using Disk Utility - won't unmount
Hi,
I've got a 2GB USB memory stick, and I'm trying to format it by erasing it on Disk Utility just as I have done with many USB memory sticks before now.
Whatever I try to do with this one though I get the error message:
"Volume Erase failed with error:
Could not unmount disk."
There are no manual switches on the USB memory stick to change, and I've checked that I have read/write privileges so I don't know what else to do. I can't find anyway of unmounting it.
I need this memory stick for transferring a large amount of files and it's the only one I've got, so any help that would stop me from buying a new one would be great!
Thanks people.sorry bro it's toast. the only time i had something like this happen the manufacture said the drive had to be re-flashed. if they provide the software online you got lucky. other wise they will tell you to send in and get it replaced (warranty valid)

Hi I have several 2 GB usb memory sticks. I use them to carry Keynote/Powerpoint presentations to different venues as backup. Recently I have noticed when transferring files from my new iMac that I keep getting the message that the memory is full on the memory stick despite moving lots of old presentations to trash. I don't understand this as it works with my iBook and my work windows laptop. It's a mystery. Can anybody shed any light on this?
Thanks TimHi there
I am having problems with my memory stick and my SD cards out of my camera! I have an IMAC leopard and i have done what you and susan above has recommended i have deleted out of trash when device is in but it looks as if its working and then i go to put pictures back on the SD card for my digital frame and it says theres not enough room when there is sufficient room. Its also not burning discs that must be part of the problem as well.
Can you help???

OS X Snow Leopard install from (non-boot) USB memory stick
oi~
just bought this second hand and after i finally got into it (the seller forgot name/password) it turns out the DVD drive is malfunctioning, i was able to watch part of a movie but it will not boot from it nor let me install from DVD. (seller is not calling me back or responding to anything i sent) bottom-line for now i can live without the DVD drive but i would like to install OS X Snow Leopard.. can i copy the DVD contents onto a 8 GB USB memory stick (using a Vista pc) and install from the USB stick ? it does not have to be bootable as i realize to do that you must use the Mac.
i also have a old(er) iMac, maybe i can use that copy copy contents (if it even reads DVD's)
any help appreciated.. thanks.thanks..
i thought i put my model # in my info, it's a MB061LL/B (Apple MacBook "Core 2 Duo" 2.0 13") darn... i keep getting stuck when i think i have a solution. so copying the contents of the disc to a network pc will not work either. or, could i make the
USB stick bootable and copy contents using a old iMac ?
added: i might be able to borrow a MacBook w/ a working DVD player.. is it a fairly quick and painless process to create a bootable USB stick + put OS X Snow Leopard on it ? (i'm rusty when it comes to Mac..)

Size restrictions for USB memory sticks?
Hi out there,
are there any known size restrictions for the use of USB memory sticks with Mac OS X?
I bought two 32 GByte (noname) USB memory sticks to "mobilize" my iTunes-library. I formatted it without errors (believing what the DiskUtility-application told me) and copied my files to one stick. But only about 4 GByte of data where able to be opened after copying. The other files where shown in the directories with their correct sizes (I compared them to the originals on my harddisk) but couldn'd be opened.
I tried copying them a second time, using the second 32 GByte stick - but same behaviour as on stick one.
Next I tried to format both sticks with the DiskUtility using the option "writing zeros in seven runs" and then tested data integrity with the TechTool-Pro application (surface test, random read and write). Both showed no errors on the sticks. But copying my library again to the sticks showed no diffrent behaviour as before. The first few copied GByte (I think about 4 GByte) could be opened by iTunes, but the rest "is only there".
Any idea what's going wrong?

sounds like one of those faked 32GB Sticks.

Copy music from iTunes to USB Memory Stick
I am doing what I am supposed to do:
I highlight the songs I want to copy in iTunes.
I drag them to a fold in the USB Memory stick.
Every once in a while I get this error:
The item “name of song.mp3” can’t be replaced because it’s invisible.
I am dragging 100 songs at a time. This happens about 1/3 of the time. I then delete this "invisible" file. Sometimes, when I go back to the iTunes song, I can drag it from iTunes to the momory stick. Other times, I have to go to the file and drag it to the memory stick.
I have a 32 GB USB memory stick that I am loading up to play in my car radio. Doing this 100 songs at a time is taking me days....
I am on OS 10.6.8. I do have the OS setup so that I can see the invisible files.
It looks like, when I drag the music in, grayed out icons appear until the files copy. Sometimes those icons apparently appear as invisible files.
The USB is formatted as MS-DOS (FAT) which is the way it arrived. I suspect that these memory sticks have to be formatted that way for the radio to read the files, but I have not tried the Mac format.After you copy the files to the flash drive...
Open Terminal (in Applications/Utilities)
Enter: dot_clean
spacebar
drag the flashdrive from the Desktop to the Termnal window
press enter

Hello!
I have a problem connecting my Ipod Shuffle 2nd generation to my Windows 8 based laptop. The computer doesn't recognize the Ipod and issues an error message saying 'USB device not recognized'. I tried uninstaling ITunes(latest version) and all other Apple software and reinstaling it back again, checked my USB hubs in the 'Device Manager' section of the Control Panel, you name it.
I could really use some help solving this.
I've turned to the troubleshooting section in Apple Support but it has nothing concerning situations in wich the device isn't even shown in the 'My Computer' folder.
Help a brother out, will you???Found a solution in another forum http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-63733-ipod-not-detected-on-computer (a few posts down).
It was for an IPOD so you can see those details in the link.
Found how to reset a shuffle and inserted it into these instructions - did not have to follow his last steps.
- Turn off computer.
- Plug Shuffle into usb.
- Then you must reset your shuffle
To reset iPod shuffle:
Disconnect iPod shuffle from the computer (if connected).
Move the switch on the iPod shuffle to the OFF position. Note that when iPod shuffle is off, the green stripe by the switch is not visible
Disconnect iPod shuffle from the computer (if connected).
Move the switch on the iPod shuffle to the OFF position. Note that when iPod shuffle is off, the green stripe by the switch is not visible.
- Start computer and it should install the usb driver for the ipod automatically.
- Your i pod will say do not unplug so don't. then open itunes and it will be there.
I did not have to do these thing below – did not get error message and shuffle was displayed in Itunes. / LMc
Just remember to not only eject ipod from itunes but stop usb.
Go to the program icons near the clock and right click the usb icon and "safely remove hardware" will appear and click it.
Stop it and select "apple ipod". -

hi all, i've just switched to apple after many years using MS OS! I'm now using iMac desktop 21.5" with 2.9GHz processor and latest Yosemite software.
How do I transfer files from one USB memory stick to another USB memory stick on the iMac? cheers, linley94Plug in the memory stick and it should open then create a New Folder and drag and drop the contents from the memory stick to the new folder you created. Remove the original memory stick all the information should be in the new folder you created. Now plug in the new memory stick with nothing on it when it opens drag the folder with the contents from the original memory stick folder and all into the new memory stick that opened and there you have it.
CHEERS

Error Message: Not enough memory for operation.
Hi All,
I'm having problem when try to connect to Oracle DB, check my details as below :
Connector : Microsoft ODBC for Oracle
Database Expert : Using Stored Procedure to populate data to excel.
Server Used: DBCCSWST125.reportjobserver
Error Message: Not enough memory for operation
Problem occurred when I tried to use stored procedure in my rpt file.
Thanks.You are using multiple versions and it's still not clear what is happening but the CR 2008 reports should not be published to BusinessObjects Enterprise XI R2. CR 2008 has functionality that XI R3 does not support.
Create reports in CR XI R2 for BOE R2.
Also, your version of Enterprise has not been patched. You should have a Support contract which will allow you to get into our Gated site and update BOE. Then it may work but check with your administrators first before patching BOE.
Thank you
Don
