(Error code -36) - some data in the file can not be read or written.

I am trying to copy my Music Folder to a new 3TB External Drive and I getting Error Code -36 for some of my TV episodes that I have purchased from iTunes.


What is the problem and how can I solve it? I go back to the those problem episodes and I can still watch them without any problem, so why I cant copying them over?

The most likely problem is that those files are corrupted and the the OS cannot read or copy them.
