Error Code -50 When copying to Firewire HD
Anybody know what this is???? I keep getting it when copying stuff from internal HD to Firewire. "Cannot copy due to error code -50". It has happened on two different macs (running OSX) and with 4 completely different drives (EZQuest, LaCie norm & PocketDrive, Quantegy)
It's very annoying, especially as the drives always have MORE than enough free space. It is not consistant either. It'll copy onto one drive, but not another. Apple site doesn't even recognise an error code -50. Only 51! What is that all about???!!!! Really don't want to have to wait for a DVD-R to burn every time I want to move stuff around. Isn't that the idea of Firewire????? |

Anybody???
I have tried running Disk Utility on both drives, repairing permissions. Also, Disk Warrior 3 on both, but still nothing.......... |

How did you format the drives? Did you follow the Digi directions in the AnswerBase?
A OS9 error -50 is paramErr - Error in user Parameter list Sounds like it's permission related. Rail

Before following the instructions below, you should backup your system or important data only in order to avoid possible information loss. Follow these steps to reset PRAM: Turn of your Mac. Press the power button. Immediately hold down the Command + Option + P + R keys until your computer reboots, and you hear the startup sound TWICE. Once you hear the sound, you can release the keys. The PRAM has been reset. In case, all the above steps will not work to fix this Mac error code 50, then you should Check this URL. https://www.errorsolutions.tech/error/error-code-50/ |
