What does this error message really mean?

I am trying to drag/drop a .mov file to a thumbdrive. I get this message:
The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code 0).
I can transfer other data to the thumbdrive just fine.
Thx...

Hi,
It is a new PNY USB Flash drive. It idoes not specify format; I plugged it into the MACBook and it was recognized. It did allow me to transfer a small file.
The drive is 32GB. The file I'm transfering is 9.5GB
Does this help?

What does this error message even MEAN??

So as I've been posting on here recently, I'm in the process of upgrading the OS on my old G4 from Panther to Tiger. I've received 2 different suggestions on how to safely do so (the 1st was simply to install Tiger on the 2nd partition of my internal drive, and then designate that one as my boot drive).
But for the 2nd method, it was suggested that I clone my current boot partition (using something like Carbon Copy Cloner, which I'm attempting), save the clone to my external drive (so I can boot off that if something happens), and then Upgrade my Panther to Tiger on the same partition, so that I can keep all my Preferences, Bookmarks, etc.
In preparation, I Verified and Repaired Permissions on both the Source Disk and the Target volume--the External Drive, which is actually formatted in Mac OS Standard; the drive I'm cloning is formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled)--and had run the "Clone" command, but immediately got this error message:
"There was an error during correcting volume privileges: chown:/Volumes/Untitled/: operation not supported. Would you like to ignore this error or stop?"
So I stopped.
What does that even MEAN? Should I "ignore" it? Or simply skip Cloning the damned drive, install the new OS to the 2nd partition, and designate that one as my boot drive?? I've been worried about Permissions on this computer, as for some reason I can't seem to Verify, or Repair Permissions for the 2nd partition of the internal drive, but for all I know, maybe you're not even supposed to be able to.
If anyone could help answer either issue though, I'd really appreciate it. I've just been preparing my computer for this upgrade for a day or two, and would really like to go through with it...

You need to first format the external drive Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Open Disk Utility, select the external volume from the left side list, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) from the drop down menu, then click on the Erase button.
Now you should be able to clone your system volume. However, do this first:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

What does this error message mean and how do I solve it? "Sorry, one or more of the following command-line tools was not found: /usr/bin/lsbom, /bin/pax, /bin/mkdir, /bin/chmod, or /usr/bin/update_prebinding."

When I try to open up this program, Pacifist, I receive this error message. Here's a screenshot. http://i.imgur.com/v717w.jpg What does this error message mean and how do I solve it?

It sounds like some of the Unix Executable commands were removed (or the permissions to those were modified) out of the /usr/bin/ folder. You can try opening disk utility and repairing permissions on Macintosh HD or you can reboot your computer and holding down option-r when it comes back up to reinstall Lion again. This will not delete your personal information or applications you have installed but it would be best to back it up to Time Machine before you do. The article on how to do this is here. (http://www.apple.com/macosx/recovery/) I have had to do this before and it works like a charm. It should fix your issue but grab a cup of coffee because its going to take about 35 - 40 minutes depending on how fast your computer is.

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.

What does this error message mean: "Filename: Mips32.ari TFTP Error: 'File not found' in AP-105"?

Question: What does this error message mean: "Filename: Mips32.ari TFTP Error: ‘File not found’ in AP-105"?
Product and Software: This article applies to AP-105.
The root cause of this error is that the AP cannot perform a code upgrade.
Scenario 1
Check the ArubaOS code.
The minimum requirement to bring up an AP-105 is ArubaOS 3.3.3+ or ArubaOS 3.4.1+.
If the controller is running pre 3.3.3 code, upgrade the code to fix the issue.
Scenario 2
If the AP is not connected to the controller directly, bring up the AP in the controller and then connect it to the desired location. This process loads mips32.ari to the AP so that the AP can upgrade the code.
Scenario 3
The AP has no power adapter and you want to use the PoE feature. A few controller series like the 200 and 3000 Series do not support PoE. In this case, the AP cannot be terminated physically in the controller. Instead, connect the AP to the PoE switch, which is connected to the controller. Then assign a static IP configuration for the AP using the following commands:
apboot> setenv ipaddr <ip address>
apboot> setenv netmask <netmask>
apboot> setenv gatewayip <ip address of the gateway>
apboot> setenv master <ip address of the master>
apboot> setenv serverip <ip address of the TFTP server>
apboot> setenv bootcmd tftp
apboot> save
apboot> boot
Locally configure the TFTP server for the AP and load the mips32.ari file from the controller with the help of the TFTP application.

I want to download this file Mips32.ari for AP-105 device. Please give me this file download link. APBoot 1.2.4.4 (build 26618)

Hi Velvalee,
While there may not be specific information about that error, here is an article of steps for troubleshooting connectivity issues with the iTunes store:

What does this error message mean? "An unexpected error occurred (error code -6584). It arises when I open my Time Capsule icon.

I had a problem when downloading iTunes 11.1 and had to clear my disc and rebuild it from Time Capsule. Thats when I learned that Time Capsule stopped backing up back in January. So now I keep looking to see if Time Capsule is backing up but whenever I open the Time Capsule icon i get this error message. What does it mean and how can I fix the problem?

The backup is corrupted in some way.. you need to verify it.
The error is common enough but there seems to be a range of solutions.
Read the thread here.. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3123920?tstart=0
Look particularly for the posts by Pondini.
And check his troubleshooting for methods of doing things like verify.

MacBook Woke Up By Itself - What does this error message mean?

My MacBook woke itself up today. First time this has happened to me. I can see from the Console Log that it's due to a USB disconnect, but I can't see anything that's disconnected. Everything appears to be working, so I'm not sure what's up. Here's the log snippet. Can someone tell me what the error codes mean?
6/4/10 1:18:00 PM kernel Wake reason = UHC4 EHC2
6/4/10 1:18:00 PM kernel System Wake
6/4/10 1:18:00 PM kernel Previous Sleep Cause: 5
6/4/10 1:18:00 PM kernel USB (EHCI):Port 1 on bus 0xfa connected or disconnected: portSC(0x101803)
6/4/10 1:18:00 PM kernel An Unknown USB Device (Port 1 of Hub at 0xfa000000), may have caused a wake by being connected
6/4/10 1:18:00 PM kernel The USB device IOUSBWirelessControllerDevice (Port 1 of Hub at 0x1a000000) may have caused a wake by being disconnected
What does Wake reason = UHC4 EHC2 mean? I can't find a meaning for UHC4 and EHC2 online.
Also, Based on the description "IOUSBWirelessControllerDevice" sounds like it would have something to do with the wifi on my MacBook, but that appears to be fine. Any ideas on what hub 0xfa is? Is that an internal USB connection? Any ideas where "Port 1 of Hub at 0x1a000000" is located?
Thanks again

6/4/10 1:18:00 PM kernel An Unknown USB Device (Port 1 of Hub at 0xfa000000), may have caused a wake by being connected
6/4/10 1:18:00 PM kernel The USB device IOUSBWirelessControllerDevice (Port 1 of Hub at 0x1a000000) may have caused a wake by being disconnected
This is the part that matters.
Unfortunately, a number of the MacBook's internal components (keyboard, iSight, USB ports themselves) are on the same USB bus. This means if any one of these components is disturbed somehow, the machine may wake from sleep. As far as I know, there is no easy way to figure out which specific device woke the machine.
Be sure to disconnect all external devices, and try turning off Bluetooth, to see if the computer continues to wake from sleep.

What does this error message mean? "Systemflippers"

SystemFlippers: didn't consume all data for DLOG ID 2002 (pBase = 0x858200, p = 0x85828c, pEnd = 0x85870e)
I'm using old fashioned resources with DLOG and DITL, etc... but DLOG 2002 exists, so... I'm not sure what's up.
ETA: After re-saving the resource file n times it didn't help. Re-saving the n+1th time, made the error go away.
MAGIC!
I'd still like to know what it was if anyone knows, for the next time it comes up.
Message was edited by: Brian Postow

Please point me to anything that google got that gave the answer? My google-fu is weak but not THAT weak.
Ok, so "systemflippers" is a endianness thing in, where? the compiler? run-time? resource manager? and what does the error mean? Just knowing what systemflippers does (I sort of figured it was something like that) doesn't tell me what the error means.

What does the error message -50 mean while trying to connect to the iTunes Store?

I got this error message while trying to connect to the iTunes Store. -50. Does anyone know what that might mean? For almost two months I have been unable to use my iTunes with my iPod-because my iPod is not being recognized in iTunes. I have done every troubleshooting thing possible-including completely uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, eight different times. Please help. Super frustrated.

If you encounter this issue while while downloading Digital Copies using Windows:
Use MSCONFIG (directions for Windows XP and Windows Vista/Windows 7) to disable conflicting software.
If using MSCONFIG steps resolves the issue, you may want to use the System Configuration Utility to turn on the third-party System Services and Startup Items one at a time (restarting your computer after turning on the item or items) to identify which System Service or Startup Item is causing the conflict.
You can turn all of them back on by selecting the Normal Startup option under the General tab of the System Configuration Utility window, but please note that this may cause the issue to reoccur.
If you are able to isolate the issue to a particular third-party software, you may wish to contact them to let them know of the conflict.
