copying media: “error -36”
Hi all,
Am trying to copy media from one external firewire drive to another,
using finder. Not all the media will copy- I keep getting this error
message with certain files: error -36. Was discussing it with someone
in the office who said it was an ownership/permission issue and showed
me how to change the folder settings to “read & write” for all access
designations (users and groups, etc). I did that to the folder where
the file lives, and that folder’s folder, and that folder’s folder and
so on. It still won’t copy. Is this not the issue? -

You have to click to check box that says “apply to enclosed items”. Also, make sure that your destination hard drive as all read/write permissions enabled. If this doesn’t work, and you can afford to lose all the material on the destination drive, reformat it.
