I am not very tech oriented, so if someone can help me fix this problem in laymens terms that would be amazing! Thanks.

== Error -54 ==

From an OS9 reference, error -54 is a software lock on a file or a permissions error. (Some of the old codes still apply to OSX although there is no formal list of OSX error codes.)


First, try simply restarting your computer.

Error -54 possibly related to Touch Copy - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3727114 - cleared by deleting preferences on iPad.
