Eve, I'm guessing here that you've ran out of memory. It sometimes happens when you copy either a large file or a collection of files. For this task, it is best to do ti from the PC end.

I had a 2 GB pen drive with several mp3 files on, and I wanted to copy them to an sd card of the same size which will go in my mp3 player. I figured the m-power could do this job, so plugged the pen drive and the sd card into it. I had successfully copied most of the files over, doing it folder by folder, when in the middle of one folder being copied I got the message "the system cannot write to the specified device" and that was the end of copying. After that it refused to copy anything else to the card. I did a software reset and tried again, and at about the same point in that same folder I got that message. After another reset I tried using other files which hadn't yet been copied to the card, and again, part-way through, the same thing happened. Then "the systest" wouldn't read from the pen drive, and at one point I tried copying something from the flash disk just to see what would happen, and "the system" wouldn't read from that either. But after a software reset it would be okay again, at least for a while. It would sometimes allow me to create a new folder on the sd card, but not allow me to put anything in it. In fact it did this with another sd card I was working with once before, and I had then thought "the system" just didn't like that card, and had asked a friend with a pc to put whatever it was I wanted on that card. I know this sounds rather strange, and I hope it makes sense. I'm curious to know if it's happened to anyone else, or if anyone has any ideas as to what's going on. I'm planning to speak to the tech support guys tomorrow morning anyway.
