com.apple.ImageCaptureCore error -9956

I have been receiving an error on Image Capture while using it to transfer some videos from iPad to my Macbook using Image Capture.


"Operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.ImageCaptureCore error -9956. (-9956)."


I have read responses to previous questions for related errors. They have not been helpful.

1) "Keep Originals" checked on the "TRANSFER TO MAC OR PC" submenu under Settings : Photos

on the iPad

this did not work

2) "Formats : Most Compatible" checked on Camera

might help for future videos but this one was already shot in the stupid HEIF/HEVC format so I can't

fix this one.


Any other ideas?

Thanks!
