Cannot copy media file
I’m using FCP 5 and a Lacie 500MB Big Disk Extreme. I have a recurring problem (this has happened on multuple projects with the same file name erroring out) I am unable to copy a media file titled 1-v or 1-a. All of the other media files seem to work fine but this one errors out if I try to drag copy it or if I use Media Manager. It gets all the way to the end of copying a 12GB file and then errors out in the last 5 seconds.
Does anyone have any suggested on how I can move this file?
Thanks

Where are you trying to move it to?
The HD must be formated for MAC Extended or similar. If it is an EXT drive that was formated for Windows/MAC then there is a 5GB limit.
I had this problem copying files until I realized about the Windows limit.
This may not me your problem, but I thought I would post just in case it was.
Good Luck,
David

Thanks David. I checked and they are formatted MacOS Extended. I’m moving from my drive to a client’s drive. I guess I’ll just pull that video in again because I just can’t figure out how to copy it.
