dot_clean command to resolve Error 36
My external DVD drive keeps unmounting every time I try to copy home videos I made in the past with my PC to my Mac. Finder gives me error 36:
The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “FileName” can’t be read or written. (Error code -36)
After searching on the internet I found that the problem can be resolved by using command dot_clean.
I tried the following on the terminal (where Nov 27 2011 D is the name of the DVD I'm trying to copy) :
dot_clean /Volumes/Nov 27 2011 D
The result was a failure as below:
Failed trying to change dir to /Volumes/Nov
Bad Pathname: No such file or directory
Failed trying to change dir to 27
Bad Pathname: No such file or directory
Failed trying to change dir to 2011
Bad Pathname: No such file or directory
Failed trying to change dir to D
Bad Pathname: No such file or directory
What's wrong here? Any advice?
