Re: Error -36 on PSD files written by Painter?
Matthew, Thanks for the reply. Error -36, in my experience, has always meant that a media problem occurred on the source volume. This has never been shown to be isolated to a specific type of file. Error -36 is an Apple-defined error being returned by the OS itself when Retrospect tries to copy a specific file. Ahh, but this is the *only* file type that turns up this error and I'm backing up gigs every night on 10 machines. As I said it's only Photoshop Files that are written by Painter. These files copy fine with the finder both locally and over the network. Try verifying the media on your source disk using a disk utility or the formatting program you used to format your hard drive. For example, if it's an Apple-formatted hard drive, use Apple Drive Setup's "Test Disk" command in the Function menu. Disk First Aid is usually not helpful in this case because it only checks for directory problems and does not check your media. I've checked both the remote and backup machine's disks with Disk First Aid, and Norton, both turn up clean. So I'm still stumped. -Steve --- Steve Axthelm Mudpuppy Studios [EMAIL PROTECTED] 503.227.1775 -- -- To subscribe:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives:http://list.working-dogs.com/lists/retro-talk/ Problems?: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Error -36 on PSD files written by Painter?
Whoops, a little slip of the finger there... Steve, I've checked both the remote and backup machine's disks with Disk First Aid, and Norton, both turn up clean. That's fine, but remember I said that Disk First Aid (and Norton, too, by the way) usually DON'T tell us anything relating to this error. Run your drive formatting utility's disk-testing function. If it's an Apple-formatted drive, that's Drive Setup. Choose Test Disk from the Function menu. What happens? If you're still having problems, call us directly.
