error code -36 / problem w/ Lacie Porsche drive
I have a Lacie Porsche external hard drive which I'm having problems getting files off of. The Lacie drive is having problems ejecting and locking up, so I figured it would be good idea to take everything off the drive, put it on my computer, then reformat the external and put the files back, hoping that will fix problem possibly.
- but, when I'm trying to transfer some files to my computer from lacie drive, I get following error on many files: the "Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in “iso-8859-1-a.raw” could not be read or written. (Error Code -36)" . Of course the name/type of file varies. Anyone know what this error means?
- I've heard this specific Lacie "porsche" drive is known for being 'querky' unfortunately, and their customer support has been bad. Anyone have any suggestions on getting the querks out w/ the drive as well?
-thank you in advance to anyone w/ advice.
