The operation couldn't be completed Input/Output Error in FCPX

So i updated my FCPX to 10.0.4 from 10.0 and all of my media/projects are on a external usb hard drive and now after updating I'm receiving an error when I launch FCPX and the error states "The operation couldn't be completed Input/Output error" and the option i have is click ok and then it opens up FCPX.
If i don't have the external USB hard drive plugin i don't receive the error and FCPX open up with no issues and much fast because I assume it doesn't have to read the media and the projects.
Thanks for you help

I have no idea what the specific error code means but input/output errors can sometimes mean a disk is failing. Make a couple of backups of all important data before doing anything else.
Verify your startup disk using the First Aid tab in Disk Utility. If the disk needs repair boot from your Leopard DVD and repair your disk from Disk Utility under Utilities on the screen after you choose your language. Repeat the repair process until Disk Utility reports all is well.
If Disk Utility doesn't find any errors you might want to try a new download of the update and keep a sharp eye on your HD for anything else that might indicate all is not well. Take special care to back up important data.
If Disk Utility finds errors it would probably be a good idea to pay a visit to the Apple Store to have them check out your hard drive even if Disk Utility is able to repair the errors.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Error message:  The operation couldn't be completed. (OSStatus error -43.)

    I've been using TeleChart 2000 for a couple of weeks with no problem.  Then over the weekend it disappeared from my dock and wouldn't stay in the dock even though I selected "keep in dock."  At least I could still open it by going to the "downloads" folder.  Now today, when I tried to open it after using it earlier in the day, I got this message:  The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -43.)
    Anyone know how to fix this?

    I took a quick look at http://www.welovemacs.com/whdoalltherc.html which list many error codes, Error 43 appears to be a file not found error.

  • Contacts won't sync with my new MacBook (The operation couldn't be completed. (CoreDAVErrorDomain error 1.))

    Hello everyone.
    I recently bought a used MacBook Pro (Mid 2012, running OS X Mavericks) as my first Mac, so maybe it is really easy but I cannot figure it out myself.
    I am really satisfied with the product, the only thing that is bugging me is that the built-in Contacts App won't sync my existing iCloud contacts.
    It's working fine on my iPhone and iPad but it does not seem to be working with the MacBook. At first I thought maybe it could use a reboot. That didn't work. Next I deleted the iCloud account from the Mac, rebooted again, entered my account data and opened contacts again. Still nothing even after waiting 10 minutes.
    Then I found this nice option "Show Last Import". And behind the "iCloud" group I noticed a little exclamation mark. After I clicked on it I was presented the following error: "The operation couldn’t be completed. (CoreDAVErrorDomain error 1.)"
    I don't really know what to do with this error since google and other search engines did not deliver a resolution to this problem which worked...
    Is my iCloud broken or something? Everything is working fine so far with my other devices (iPad, iphone, icloud-website, even my Windows PC at work can sync the contacts  :-/)
    I hope you can provide me a solution because I am out of ideas myself

    So for me I found a solution after hours of searching. Surprisingly it is in another thread here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19223886#19223886
    Problem solved with a lot of help from Apple Support. After upgrading to ML, I still had all my contacts in iCloud and on the iPhone, but not on the iMac and the MacBook.
    1) We have set up a temporary second iCloud account for me.
    2) On my iPhone, I signed out of iCloud and did NOT delete the contacts.
    3) On the two Macs I signed out of iCloud and had everything deleted.
    4) I signed the iPhone up with the new iCloud account and synced all contacts into that one.
    5) With Safari I opened the online interface of my original iCloud  account and manually deleted all contacts.
    6) On my iPhone, I signed out of the temporary iCloud and did NOT delete the contacts.
    7) On my iPhone, I signed into my original iCloud account and waited for the contacts to sync.
    8) On the two Macs I signed into my original iCloud account and everything was okay again.
    So have my contacts back, but we do not really know what was wrong.
    As the original author said, I had no idea what exaclty was wrong but somehow it's working.
    I'm not using any Google contacts so unfortunately I can't help you with that.

    (NSSQLiteErrorDomain error 8.)
    I use Notes daily on my iMac.  I have notes open next to my browser at all times for (Big Surprise) Note taking. I rarely use / open Notes on any of my other devices; iPad, iPhone, etc.
    iMac Mid 2007 / Processor  2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo / Software  OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
    For the past couple days it has been unexpectedly and repetedly quitting.  I have had to close all applications and restart my computer to open it back up. Most often, only other Application running is Safari.  Occasionally I have had Pages, Calculator, Real Time Player, PDF Viewer, Preview open besides Safari and Notes.

  • In iphoto i get this error for a video that I wanted to play - The operation couldn't be completed. (OSStatus error -54.) what is that error and how to fix it?

    The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -54.)
    My Apple course instructor felt it would be smart to create all in iphoto dragging in all videos and photos to one spot.
    I now get these errors and they wont play.
    What is the error telling me and how do I fix it and get the video to play please??
    Is it true iphoto will be replaced in this New Year and if so does anyo

    No it didn't at all.
    I went to the finder and saw several of the same .
    When I called Apple they told me not to delete anything using the Finder… odd I thought, as that was the only way I could see the multiple videos and photos.
    Do you think there is any harm in deleting from there directly if I have a good playable copy?
    Thank you both for responses.
    The clips/videos some are from iPhone 4.
    I opened it manually and found 4 copies of most of the same videos, same names, some with slight variations. Don't know why.
    Some are titled from iphoto /Masters    don't know why that happened
    Now I also have some clips with white dotted line on grey where the clip used to be? why would that occur??
    In my finder there are now 97000 images. Yet I only have 22,000 in iphoto. Where are the rest located and why so many duplicates?
    Have I checked a box somewhere and need to address that?
    Thank you for any insight and guidance.

    Dear Nay2000,
    I have the same problem, my girl-friend saved a bigger Gigabyte library from her old laptop before she sold it, then at some point she realized that she couldn't play many songs that she had transfered. Now, I paid those 30 quid as well, and it doesn't play 99% of the files, that is very frustrating, is there any way you got it revived?

    Hi there!
    Yes, same problem too; I've already sent an email to apple support and just received a very vague and unpractical response with "call apple support in your country" as main advice. I've obviously emailed back stating that I need a clearer response and I don not have any intention to spend money calling for support when updates is a free tool. I do also believe this is a probem generated on Apple's end, I just wish they learned to say "sorry, it's us;  working on it!"

    There are many people suffering from this problem right now (including me). It appears to be a server issue. Just wait and try checking for updates again tomorrow.
    Some things I have heard indicate that this may be a regional problem, though what parts of the world are affected I don't know yet. A few people have been helped by deleting the following preference file (paste the path into the Go -> Go to Folder window in the Finder to locate it), though most have not:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    Note that if you are trying to download iTunes 10.7, that can be found here:

    Also, note that there is no reason to be anxious to get it, as the only thing added in iTunes 10.7 is compatibility with iOS 6, which will not be available until the 19th, and the new iPhone, which will not be available until later as well. The new iTunes that was announced is iTunes 11, which is also not yet available.
