kev_brett is on a distinguished road
error code 0

Please help. I'm trying to transfer large video files from one external HD to another using FW400, but keep getting the error code. I know anything over 4gb will bring up this error, but how can I back up my drive to a second if I can't move the files???

Ta for the help in advance

Kev

Format your drive(s) as HFS+. It sounds like you have one or both of them formatted as FAT32.

Open Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities). This will enable you to format the drives. Backup all the files to somewhere else before you format since this will wipe everything clean on the partition or drive.
For using the drive with a Mac, choose HFS+.

HFS+ is equivalent to "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".
