Why am I suddenly getting error messages when updating the vault?

Hi, I would greatly appreciate any advice anyone here can offer of how to correct a problem that started recently.
I've updated the vault for Aperture successfully many times before, but now, when I attempt to update the vault I've started receiving error messages. Everything seems to proceed normally at first, a progress bar opens showing "Comparing library to vault", then when that is done, another opens showing "updating vault 'photograph lockbox' from library". But after that I now get an error message which reads:
"Update Vault Error:
13345 errors occurred. The first 5 are:
Error creating a directory in vault ‘Photograph Lockbox‘.
Error creating a directory in vault ‘Photograph Lockbox‘.
Error creating a directory in vault ‘Photograph Lockbox‘.
Error creating a directory in vault ‘Photograph Lockbox‘.
Error creating a directory in vault ‘Photograph Lockbox‘."
I have a Mac Pro running 10.4.11, my version of Aperture is 1.5.6. I haven't updated either of those for financial reasons and because I have no pressing need to. And everything seemed to be working fine until a couple of weeks ago when the updating errors started.
My vault is in a Seagate portable hard drive.
Does anyone have any ideas about how to fix this?
Also, does this mean that none of my new photographs are being backed up in the vault? That would be scary!
Thanks for any advice offered.
Rick

Hi
Exactly the same problem started for me a little while ago.
Firstly, you are correct in assuming that subsequent backups are not taking place. This can easily be confirmed by looking at the colour of the synchronization button. Red circular arrows indicate that there are Digital Masters in your library that have not been backed up in a vault. What colour are yours?
The problem is either a program error or hardware or both.
I suggest that you create another vault, this time on your desktop. Backup to it. If this is successful the problem is not with the Aperture program.
I was advised to format my hard drive as "Mac OS Extended (journaled)" before attempting to backup.

    I got about 26 of these error messages when I am trying to update my Vault! I have no clue why I am getting them.

  • I am getting an un expected error message when updating the setting to "extend network".  Is there an obvious setting I may be missing?  Cisco router being used.

    I am getting an un expected error message when updating the setting to "extend network".  Is there an obvious setting I may be missing?  Cisco router being used.

    If you are trying to "extend" using wireless only, you may not be aware that Apple designed the "extend" feature as a proprietary setting to only work with other Apple routers.
    It is extremely unlikely that this will work with a Cisco router.
    If your plans call for connecting the AirPort Express to the Cisco router using a wired Ethernet connection, it should be possible to configure the Express that way.

    My first inclination is to answer your question --- yes - something is going wrong! I'm sure more specific information will be needed to help you.
    Are you getting a specific message? An error code number? Can you describe exactly what you are doing when you get the message?

  • Why is there suddenly an error message when trying to download pdf documents online: "cannot export document"

    Why am I recently receiving an error message when trying to download pdf documents from the web? The message reads: "cannot export document" I've updated Adobe and all software updates are current. The first indication of a problem was when I opened a pdf that I thought downloaded, but the file is blank. Now that doesn't even happen. Any help would be tremendously appreciated! Thank you, KB

    I know man what your saying. I should have written it down when it happened last night. I figured if anyone had had the same issue they might know the reason. I'll try doing a test recording today and see if the same issue arises. Meanwhile, if anyone has this happen to them please let me know. Thanks

  • Why do I keep getting error message when trying to update iPad with ios7?

    NMAYO,
    In your project view can you right click on the chassis in the cRIO and make sure that it is set for Scan Mode and not FPGA mode? Also, In the measurement and automation explorer you can check the cRIO and verify that it has Scan Engine Support installed on it. The tutorial below shows how to reformat a cRIO and install software on it, the later steps on software will allow you to check your cRIO.

  • I Keep getting error messages when updating itunes

    The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with package. The error code is 2349.
    That the error i get when updateing the itunes iv downloaded it like 5 diff times and still the same message what else can i do about it?
    can anyone help me please and thank you for your time

    Although it's a better bet with a 2330 error, I'd try running a chkdsk over your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you've got your program files installed on).
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Getting error message when updating to 9.2.1

    I just installed 9.1 from 8.6. I also downloaded the Mac OS 9.2.1 update and about 1 minute into the update, I get an error message saying:
    "This version of Mac OS can not be installed over the localized version of Mac OS on the disk named "Macintosh HD". Please choose a different destination disk, or perform a clean installation."
    What should I do? I tried running the update 3 times, and get the message each time.

    Hi, Remy -
    That message indicates the language version of the OS 9.2.1 update you are attempting to install does not match the language version of your installed OS 9.1. In order to be able to use any OS 9 download update, the update must match the language version of the existing OS 9.
    There are two English versions of the OS 9.2.1 download update - North American English, and International English. You will probably need to download the update again, this time getting the matching version.
    What language version is your installed OS 9.1? If you're not sure, check in About This Computer (top of Apple menu when Finder is active). If you have the International English version, it will be displayed something like "Mac OS (Z1) 9.1" - the "Z1" indicates International English. No such coding in that string will indicate it is the North American English version.
    You can download any available language version of the OS 9.2.1 update from this Apple KBase article -
    Article #120030 - Mac OS 9.2.1 - Download and Info

    Or perhaps the demand is so big that some people just have to stay out of the queue for a while. Whatever the cause is, I think we just should wait

  • Getting error message when calling the sub templates

    Hi,
    I developed an RTF template which contains a cross tab report. There is also a logo and
    many other fields above and below the cross tab. If the cross tab output goes to the next page dynamically then the other fields, present above and below the cross tab, should also be displayed. So i kept the fields above the cross tab report as header and the fields below the cross tab as footer using <?start:body?> and <?end body?>. When i preview the RTF then am getting the desired output with headers and footers repeating in all the pages.
    If i call this RTF from another main template(import RTF) then am getting error java.lang.NullPointerException.
    If i change <?start:body?> and <?end body?> to <?body-start?> and <?body-end?> then am getting the output. But the header and footer is printed in 1st page only and not printed from 2nd page.
    Can anyone please suggest how to display the headers and footers in all pages.
    Thanks,
    Subba Reddy

    Hi,
    Thanks for ur replay. I also tried creating header and footer and called from the template(summary.RTF). If i preview the template then it is working fine. Headers and footers are displayed in all the pages. But if i call this summary.RTF from another main template then headers and footers are dispalyed in the 1st page only. I cant call the headers and footers from the main template since the main template calls many other templates apart from Summary.RTF. This headers and footers should be displayed only for Summary.RTF
    Thanks.

    Did you reset Firefox recently?
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems
    If that is the case then you may have lost intermediate certificates that were stored in the cert8.db file in the Firefox profile folder.
    Check out why the site is untrusted (see the Technical details) and if this is caused by a missing intermediate certificate then see if you can install this intermediate certificate from another source.
    Some firewalls monitor secure (https) connections and send their own certificate instead of the website's certificate.
    You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
    *Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
    Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
    *Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the issuer.
    You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.
