Hello 9lsbuch,

Thanks for that info and for choosing the Apple Support Communities. If I understand correctly, you are unable to move a file from one folder to another folder on your MacBook Pro, as you get an error message. To help isolate this, use safe mode to start up your Mac as it does the following things:

• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed
• Loads only required kernel extensions
• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically
• Disables user-installed fonts
• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files

Log in to your user account and test the issue while in safe mode and then restart normally and test the issue again.

Use safe mode to isolate issues with your Mac

Cheers!
