Error Code -36 Some data could not be read or written.
When trying to copy some files from external firewire drives I am getting errors that say "The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in "LatestCollection.mov" could not be read or written (Error code -36).
I have some Lacie 250G Extreme drives that are not having a problem, but I've now tried THREE different Lacie Pocket Drives and they all come up with this error when I've tried copying files that are of all different kinds, for Quicktime files to Quark files to a disk image.... I've tried hooking up to different firewire ports, I've tried three different firewire cords, same problem. BUT, I am able to copy some files without a problem... Just various random files won't copy because of this error. ALSO, I've used these drives on other computers and been able to copy the exact same files off without any problem.
Not knowing what to do, I repaired the disk permissions on my main drive. That did nothing.
I've combed the support discussions and come up with nothing that sounds exactly like this.
Anyone have ANY idea??
