Partition failed: A problem occurred while resizing Core Storage physical volume structures

Hi everybody,
I have just installed Yosemite on my iMac and everything works right.
iMac 27" late 2012
3,4 Ghz intel core i7
32 GB 1600 Mhz DDR3
3TB Fusion drive.
Now I need to create a bootable partition to install a copy of Mavericks because some FCPX plugins do not work on Yosemite.
To create a new partition I use Disc Utility, but each time I try to create it the mac show me this error:
partition failed A problem occurred while resizing Core Storage physical volume structures
Why?
What can I do?
P.S. FCPX does not work on a virtual machine, so I have to install it on a new partition
Thanks

Ditto here.
Same problem - I have a Apple_Corestorage partition that can't be unlocked.
You have to do this command to free up the Corestorage partition
diskutil coreStorage delete logicalGroupUUID
In your case, it'll be:
diskutil coreStorage delete E2CDC5FC-DA6E-4F43-B524-8925ABB23883

so I tried Yasu, verified permission, verified disk, and everything was ok, but in Disk Utility I was trying to split or change size of my disk but there is one error again:
+*Partition failed.*+
+Partition failed with the error: No space left on device+
but I have 64GB free space!
how must I "+Restore your information to the disk+" or what else can I do?
thanks!
This is a standard error message.
If you would have checked into the bootcamp forum you would have instantly found the solution.
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1244&start=0
All that error message means is that you do not have enough conguous disk space available. No big deal at all for an older system. You have bits of files strewn over the "free space."
The solution as you would find in the bootcamp forum is to clone your HD, using a file-file clone, then test the clone to be sure it is working and then to erase your HD and clone back.
Works every time.

Recent backups fail: "An error occurred while copying files to the volume."

I recently moved to a new place and set up Time Capsule as a bridge. Backups were working fine for the first couple days but then, out of the blue, I got a message that said the password I entered for Time Capsule was incorrect. I entered the correct password and hit OK. Time Machine was able to connect but now backups fail with this error: "Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while copying files to the backup volume."
Time Machine indicates it is "preparing backup" for a few minutes, then sits at "zero of __MB completed" for a long while, finally starts backing up and gets to the end but then fails. Console indicates "unexpected reply from backup server; ignored."
None of these attempts have fixes my problem:
--I have deleted my TC passwords in Keychain Access.
--I have tried downloading the latest Airport Utility and re-entering the TC disk's password in both Airport Utility and in Time Machine preferences.
--I have restarted my computer and unplugged & plugged back in TC.
My Internet connection works fine; TC's light is solid green. I can enter Time Machine to restore backups without a problem. The backups just fail every time now. Any ideas?

The problem really isn't the speed of the backup; it's done in 5-10 minutes, but each time it finishes, TM reports it has failed. I don't believe plugging it in overnight or letting TM try over and over will fix the problem. I've tried to manually start backups a number of times, and have let TM try to start and complete them on its own but they consistently fail.
It would be an awful shame if I had to delete my old backup--I bought the Time Capsule for the specific purpose of having backups that go back months and I don't want to lose what I've already backed up.

FileVault Failed: Unable to create a new Core Storage logical volume group.

So when I try to enable FileVault on my Retina MBP, I go through all the steps and hit restart.
The program then hangs for about 30 seconds and gives me the above error.
It never restarts and never turns on FileVault.
Any ideas?

Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
diskutil list; echo; diskutil cs list
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste (command-V) into the Terminal window.
Post any lines of output that appear below what you entered — the text, please, not a screenshot.

Yosemite "problem resizing Core Storage" upgrade error?

Not a great amount of luck upgrading from Mavericks to Yosemite here.
Download and start install, restart, see the progress bar, then the install screen with "about 18 minutes remaining". It moves along, and then boom...
OS X could not be installed on your computer
A problem occurred while resizing Core Storage physical volume structures.
Quit the installer to restart your computer and try again.
Restarting several times, as well as returning to Mavericks and trying again has so far failed. Live Chat suggestions of verifying and repairing disks and trying in Safe Mode also unsuccessful.
3TB Fusion Drive has over 450GB free space, just the single "iMac" partition within the Macintosh HD.
Any help greatly appreciated! Otherwise looks like it's a wait to see if a fix appears...

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusion_Drive
Fusion Drive is a technology developed by Apple Computer Engineering, with a SSD and a mechanical hard drive be connected to a logical drive. [1]
Description and function [Edit]
Fusion Drive called Apple a technique in which an SSD and a mechanical hard disk are transparently connected to a logical drive. The user sees the combination as a single drive. [2] With Fusion Drive is also in large storage volume can be benefited at a moderate price of the speed of the SSD.
Fusion Drive connects not only two physical drives into one logical, but still used in addition to a technology that tiering is called. When tiering, in German as "staggering", data on frequently accessed, the fastest drive (SSD here) saved, the other to the slower, here on the mechanical drive. What data is stored where, the operating system decides on the basis of a thorough analysis of the data access itself and can not be influenced by the user. Optionally coated the operating system in the background to data. The operating system itself is always on the SSD. [3] [4] tiering is used in mainframe computers for some time, with Fusion Drive this technology now comes for the first time in a personal computer for use.
Fusion Drive must not be confused with conventional hybrid drives. While in the latter case the SSD part only serves as a data buffer and all data is ultimately always stored on the mechanical disk in Fusion Drive SSD is a full-fledged part of the logical drive (except a small part of 4 GB [3], which also serves as a buffer).
Fusion Drive is since November 2012 integrated with all new Macs with SSD and mechanical hard drive. [5] The first corresponding Macs were equipped with a 128 GB SSD and a 1 TB or 3 TB of mechanical hard disk. [6] Currently (April 2013 ), Apple provides no utility available with which Fusion Drive install on older Macs could. But this can be done via the terminal, this requirement is OS X 10.8 Lion Mountain. [7]

Error on install then... A problem occurred while loading the system update"

Hello,
I have a ThinkPad X40. I tried to reformat it using the recovery partition, but that failed... great system huh? Anyway, i installed Windows XP using a different CD and i tried to install the ThinkVantage System Update and got an Error 1722.
There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A progam run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action StartSuService.EXE, location: ...\startsuservice.exe "
It had placed an executable entry in my start menu, so i tried to run it and got "A problem occured while loading the system update......" which seems to have been experienced by a lot of people. Looks like i'm at a dead end here as well... So far the Laptop has been fine with everything apart from lenovo software...
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Joe

Can't create a new illustration. Problems occurred while saving the print file.

I can't open a new Illustrator file. It sends me this error: Can't create a new illustration. Problems occurred while saving the print file. ID:-1
I opened a previous document created in CC, but it will not allow me to copy and paste items from one doc to another.
I have rebooted with no avail.

Is a printer connected? Is it turned ON? Is the driver up to date?
Illustrator checks this every time and also writes information on the printer into the file.

CS5 "a problem occured while extracting some files...."

I used both Firefox and IE to download the update for CS5. All seemed to successfully download to my desktop where I wanted them. When I double clicked on the .exe file, it began to extract and got to 99% (sometimes 100%) before giving me the error "A problem occured while extracting some files. Check availabile space on your computer and the write privilages on the destination folder."
I am using Windows XP, I'm the admin so I'm not sure what privilages I need.
I have 66 G of free space
*I tried using 7zip to extract the files, did not work.
*I tried to just get into the folder which was created during the extract and clicked on set-up.exe - it gave me the message "We've encountered the following issues: Installer failed to initialize. File not found. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem." including a link to where I can do that. I did that and so far, it is stuck on "please wait while the application initializes." I'm thinking it's not going to happen so I've come here.
Any ideas would be appreciated!

First of all, let me correct an incongruency in your post, Mr. Cox: you say it works for "almost everyone" yet also state that it fails "only" for me. These can't both be correct, and of course we all know the latter is clearly incorrect because we can see from this thread that someone else has also had the problem.
Also, I am not sure that the problem has been attributed with absolute certainty to a "bad download", although I tend to agree that it's the most likely explanation. Has it?
Now consider this: I posted here for the exact reason that Adobe needs to know this is not a problem with only one computer and one user. I took some time out of my work day because I appreciate Adobe.
They might want to know that I had the problem on a fresh install on my home computer, one that was only days ago running CS5 from ym first install, which went without a hitch. In solving this, I am happy to post any system information, error logs, checksums, or ANYTHING that Adobe would like to see that would result in the resolution of this problem. As you know I can solve the problem myself because I have the original uncorrupted files here at work. But, really, being as Adobe has decided to use a special download and installation package, which I know can be somewhat quirky from past experience, I think it is Adobe's responsibility to listen to download/installation problems. AND as their customer service has never been anything but exemplary in the past, Mr. Cox, this is exactly why I posted here. Because they do listen.
What should they do? It seems to me, although I'm no programmer, that in this day and age there is no reason that a download should be completed and still not function. There are solutions aplenty that ensure data is transmitted without error, and I quite frankly do not understand why they have not already used such a solution (if bad download is in fact the problem here). For example, can they not make a downloader that runs a checksum for us, and tells us if we have a bad download, or runs packets through one to make sure that everything is coming in correctly as we download? Can corrupted packets be discarded and redownloaded automatically so that crappy connections still get their software in pristine condition, and nobody has to post or call in about stuff like this?
That would seem to be a good idea.

CS4 Master Collection - Problem occurred while extracting...

After spending $1,500 and two days of RL time downloading the CS4 Master Collection twice, I am just a tad frustrated.
Each time I download the CS4 suite file and try to install it, I immediately get the error:
"A problem occurred while extracting the archive. Please try downloading the Adobe CS4 Master Collection again."
No. I refuse to spend another full day downloading this file yet again just to receive the same error.
Anyone have some insight into this problem? (more so than "turn off your anti-virus program"
Thanks in advance.

I am having the same problem. I found a forum that suggested this. Apparently it worked for some people, but not for me. Let me know if it does:
1. Start -> All Programs -> Accessories
2. Right-click on Command Prompt and select "Run as..."
3. Run as Administrator (even if you are logged in as Admin. You need to run in the Black Command Prompt, not the White one)
4. Run: regsvr32 JScript.DLL
5. Then run: regsvr32 vbscript.DLL
(dont forget the spaces, or it won't work)
6. Then try running the set up again
As i said, it worked for some on the forum, but not others (like me). Try it and see if works for you

Error Message downloading CS5: A problem occurred while extracting the archive..

After dowloading the CS5 Design Premium, I get an error messagin stating "A problem occurred while extracting the archive. Please try downloading the Adobe CS5 Design Premium again." I repeated this process multiple times to no avail. I am trying to download the CS5 design premium on my new laptop, but don't have the software cds to do this. Thus, I can only download the software but after i download the two files required, that error message appears. (I already have my serial number).

Hi nickgtr,
Please try disabling your Antivirus as sometimes it detects the files as virus and removes them while downloading. You can also try downloading after performing Selective Startup.
Please let us know if it helps.

Someone faced with such issue?
Have ideas to solve the issue?

Hi,
Event 9646 occurs if a MAPI client opens more than the default value. You can follow the steps below for troubleshooting:
1. Run regedit, and then click OK.
2. Expand the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeIS\ParametersSystem
3. Right-click ParametersSystem, point to New, and then click Key.
4. Type MaxObjsPerMapiSession, and then press ENTER to name the new subkey.
5. Right-click MaxObjsPerMapiSession, click New, and then click DWORD Value.
6. Type Object_type, and then press ENTER to name the object.
Note: Object_type is the name of the object type in the error message that is mentioned in the "Symptoms" section.
Hope this can be helpful to you.

Photoshop CS3 extended error on Installation("A Problem occurred while extracting some files....

Hi guys. I dont know if youve experienced this but I get this error whenever I try to install Photoshop CS3 Extended. The error popup message goes like this:
"A Problem occurred while extracting some files. Check available space on your computer and the write privileges on the destination folder."
Any idea? :(
thanks in advanced.
Cheers!

Welcome to the forum.
where is the file to download it directly?
With CS3, there might not be one any longer. CS4 has been out for some time. You might need to contact Adobe Customer Service for resolution. I know that they offer replacement media for a small fee, but do not know how far back they go with the versions.
For me, I always purchase the full discs, and from Adobe, so I have little experience with downloaders and with the downloadable files. Maybe someone else can offer you more direct assistance.
Good luck,
Hunt
