What does Stream error occurred for APSTCPStream: 0x7fbd3a23bc10 : The operation couldn't be completed mean?

My computer will randomly fill my desktop with finder files, numbers and pages files and around 60 untitled folders. I pulled the error from the system logs, that is what is showing there.  Does anyone have any ideas?

I am with you. I keep getting the message every ten minutes and sometimes several times at ones. I have not found any explanation.

    Two days ago I noticed a noise my MBP started to make all by itself, it started basically right after I changed the sync contacts option in iTunes for my iPhone to sync my contacts along with my gmail contacts. I've changed it back since then but it continues to make the noise and log file error entries are still posting. Below is my error log file for this issue from the first instance to the last one. Can someone please tell me how to fix this?

    upgrading to osx 10.6.8 fails. I see errors in the /var/log/install.log of "An unexpected error occurred while moving files to the final destination." Underlying Error=(Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=5 "The operation couldn’t be completed. Input/out. Any thoughts on what is causing these errors and the upgrade failure?
    Thanks

    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.

  • Mac OS X 10.6.8, receiving error message "Failed to check for updates. The operation couldn't be completed. Operation not permitted." How to fix?

    When I try to update my software, I'm receiving the error message "Failed to check for updates. The operation couldn't be completed. Operation not permitted."
    I'm using Safari 4.0.3. Yes, I know this is an old version of Safari - I can't update it, or any other software on my MacBook. Should I just wait for the Lion OS, or is there any kind of fix a non-technical Mac user like me can attempt without screwing up her laptop?
    I've tried clearing my cache and resetting Safari already - doesn't help. I've also tried to update after disabling my (Norton) antivirus software, thinking that might be interfering. None of these help.
    I don't know if it's a related problem, but also I can't download .pdf files from the internet, although I used to be able to.

    You should use the NortonAV uninstaller to uninstall it. Disabling the dreadful thing in the past hasn't always been sufficient for it to cease creating system havoc. The Mac NortonAV version has a long and well-earned reputation for doing truly seriously nasty things to OS X. Shame on Comcast for inflicting NortonAV on its Mac customers. It's not a matter of if NortonAV will mess up OS X but when and how badly. I can't help but wondering if some setting in your Norton AV has decided that NortonAV, rather than you, will be making executive decisions about what you are allowed to install on your computer and is keeping that fact a secret.
    After you are done uninstalling Norton use the finder to search for any Norton files that the uninstaller might have missed. Add the option to search for invisible files.
    After you have removed all the Norton bits and pieces restart in safe mode by holding down the shift key right after the startup chime. Keep holding down the shift key until you see the Apple logo and spinning gear. Safe mode does some maintenance tasks which means a much longer than normal startup time. Use Disk Utility to repair permission
    If your Mac works normally in safe mode restart. If things still aren't fixed you might want to give another shot at reinstalling Snow Leopard from the install DVD and applying the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo before taking your Mac to the Apple Store.
    If you feel the need to run AV software on your Mac use ClamXav in manual mode. It's donationware and doesn't seem to cause the litany of weird problems that are associated with other AV software.

    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.

    Hi Terence,
    Thank you for your help.

    Thanks

  • 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.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    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.
