The operation could not be completed (Error code -43)

Trying to run Time Machine for first time. Get "The operation could not be completed. An unexpected error occurred (error code -43)." Have rebooted etc... suggestions?

What is the partition map scheme (Apple partition map, or GUID?) and what is the format (HFS+/Mac OS Extended or other?) of the drive? For PowerPC Macs the Time Machine drive requires "Apple Partition Map", and for intel-based macs it requires "GUID". Both architectures require "HFS+" (otherwise known as "Mac OS Extended") for the format of the drives.

    Every time i try to open the pixel bender filter I get an error that says "The operation could not be completed" Any Ideas?  Windows 7 i5 processor and 8 gb of ram. I tried re installing, and several images from small to max size.
    Thanks

    Perhaps your issue has been resolved by now.  I read all the responses as I was also having the Error:
    The operation could not be completed." message and this is how I resolved it.  I have Win XP with
    3Gb Ram,and the same graphics card you referenced, by Nvidia.  I looked as the document size and it was at 370 dpi so I dropped it down to 72 and saved it.  Then I had no problem opening Pixel Bender and using the various filters in it.

  • "The operation could not be completed" error when starting VS 2013 (premium)

    It was running fine and then msbuild wouldn't stop so I had to kill VS. After that I get the above error every time I try to start VS.
    Same result with the various console invocation devenv options (/safemode, /resetuser, ...)
    My path is < 2048 chars. I've also re-registered actxprxy.dll and oleaut32.dll to no avail.
    I've run the VS2013 repair a couple times, no errors reported but I still get the error.

    Hello Charlie,
    Based on the error info, 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.ErrorHandler' is used as "Provides methods for dealing with common COM error codes". Some components send this error out but I seems cannot find the info about the specific component. Do you have
    any more error info in your ActivityLog.xml log?
    If you do not have any info, we may need to use process monitor tool:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx
    Please open this tool and then open Visual Studio to reproduce the error.
    After that, please filter the Visual Studio related process and upload the log to OneDrive and share the file to here.
    I think it will contains some info about the specific corrupt dll or any com components. Then we can try register it again.
    By the way, may I ask why you register actxprxy.dll and oleaut32.dll here? Do you have any error info about them?
    Best regards,
    Barry

  • Operation could not be completed error code 10657

    I have a iomega external HD that I am trying to use to back up my macbook pro. I just upgraded to 10.5.8. I used the iomega before using retrospect software to back up and now was trying to use time machine. Time machine went through the entire backup, but when I try to open anything I get the error message above.
    Any ideas of what I need to do?
    Thanks

    I used migration assistant.  There was a message that the transfer was complete.    I googled the error message -
    I got the solution to this problem at the Genius Bar.
    As they explained it, Time Machine is software that saves files on the backup drive in a format that can only be read by Time Machine. So, when you open Time Machine, you can click on any file and it will open.
    If you try to open a file directly from the backup drive, it needs a program to open it, and if Time Machine is not open, you get the error message.
    If your computer crashes, when you get it fixed (or get a new Mac)and when you connect the backup drive, Time Machine will recognize it, will ask you if you want to associate it with your computer, and when you say yes, all your backed-up files are availabel and copied back into the computer.
    I am so very afraid to do ANYTHING!!!!

  • I have a pop up window that says "Sorry the operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occured (Error code -61). What does that mean?

    I am using a portable USB storage drive connected to my laptop.  I am trying to delete a file from the USB drive but it is not working. A pop up window appears that says "Sorry the operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occured (Error code -61)". What does that mean and how do I fix it?  Thank you.

    All I can tell you is that is a write permissions error. How is this drive formatted? Check the file's permissions. You can try:
    Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the prompt enter:
    sudo rm -rf
    Leave a space after "-rf" and drag the file into the Terminal window. Press RETURN. You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed.

  • The operation could not be completed because an error occurred when creating frame 2829 (error -1)

    I'm getting this error code in Final Cut Pro.  The operation could not be completed because an error occurred when creating frame 2829 (error -1). What does this mean and how can I fix it?  This code comes up when exporting. 

    Final Cut Pro X 10.0.8 and I'm running it on OS X 10.9.1.  I have been doing nothing different for the past few months. I have been creating a weekly video and exporting the same way and everything, but it just did this today for the first time. I have never had this error code before.

  • When restoring an iPhoto library I got an "unexpected error" message and the operation could not be completed. Is my best choice to try again?

    One of my external hard drives died. I had several iPhoto libraries in it. Fortunately, I used Time Machine to backup to a Time Capsule and I can see all the iPhoto library icons in Backups.
    When restoring the first iPhoto library, after three hours, I got an "unexpected error" message and the operation could not be completed. Indeed, the restored library is smaller than the library in Backups. Is my best choice to try again and replace the restored library (which apparently must be missing some photos)? It would mean another 3 hours plus of restoration with fingers crossed...
    Any suggestions? Thank you in advance!

    I am always suspicious of using a different OS to the one that was used to run the backup.. ie if you used Snow L to backup then there is absolutely nothing wrong with using SL to restore.
    Mount the TC sparsebundle and verify it using disk utility.

    You might also like to load the widget in Time Machine so you get whatever the full error message is..
    I cannot find any reference to the error code you are getting..
    My recommendation would be to try it on a different computer.. restore the whole backup to an external drive large enough to accept the whole backup.
    Use the manual methods pondini recommends.

    Use ethernet only. Turn off wireless so it does not enter the situation.

  • Daqmx error num: -50103 with message: The specified resource is reserved. The operation could not be completed as specified.

    Hi, I am running a program where I have 4 nidaq cards on a single machine, all connected. I am trying to start a counter and keep getting that error (daqmx error num: -50103 with message: The specified resource is reserved. The operation could not be completed as specified.) in two places in my code. I understand what the error means (you can only have one task of a type per card), but I don't see where that is occuring in my code.
    See below for code. I noted the two places where the error is occuring. I am debugging someone else's code, which is part of the problem.
    Thanks!

    I get it when capturing from my mini DV cam (which is not controllable by FCP). To resolve, I have to click Capture Now a split second after I start the DV tape rolling.

  • Streaming error the operation could not be completed

    Dear All,
    Please Help me i Above Subject Iam using Airtel Digital Tv Application name is pocket tv firts time is install Application is working good after some days showing error streaming error the operation could not be completed please try again later please let me know what is issued and how can fix this problem.

    I've continued tests on different films, and tried my entire collection. I've found about two dozen that will play fine on the PC, but will not cooperate when streamed to either Apple TV or my iPad. I tried several more tests with the audio, and that turned out not to be a factor -- I could not replicate that on another test.
    I wonder if something in the header of these files is corrupted or a flag is set incorrectly or something along those lines, as the data appears to be fine -- it's just not "handshaking" with my streaming hardware and/or the Apple Home Sharing code that powers it.
    Is there any way for me to "scrub" these files and amend their headers, or get into the file and tinker with that info by hand?

  • Error while consolidating. The operation could not be completed.

    Error while consolidating. The operation could not be completed. Cocoa error 13. (null)
    Got this when I was trying to consolidate some referenced photoshop files. If failed to create a new version as well when I tried to open the files in Photoshop. I rebuilt the the library and it displays and exports both masters and version just fine, but it won't let me consolidate the master to the library.
    What gives?

    I think that error was due to the fact that I hadn't upgraded MAC OSX after installing it. I have done that now and now I get another error saying the masters are offline.
    I found this old thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1965601?start=0&tstart=0 which seems to be the same problem. This is a whole other topic so I will start a new thread, but leave this in case anyone gets the same problem as me. Upgrade your OSX. That's the solution :-)

  • IMovie error message "The operation could not be completed"

    I am trying to create a new movie and got this error message " The operation could not be completed" after selecting the Themes.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    My problem was because I had moved my Movies folder from the system drive (which is an SSD) over to another drive with a larger capacity. I then created an Alias in my home folder.  Turns out this is what was causing the problem. I shoulda known. Some apps absolutely hate this. iMovie, being the dumbed down garbage that it is, simply MUST have it's library in a certain folder, apparently. Would be nice if we had a choice about it.
    I find Premiere Elements is actually the better (and friendlier) program. However in this case, I had to slum it with iMovie due to the Quicktime file I was working with.

    You need to set the FCP X Preferences to count in frames, locate that frame, delete the clip around it and replace with a fresh one.
