Cannot copy from Infinite HD to Saved HD under Mac OS 9 #235

Open EvkNet opened 9 months ago

EvkNet commented 9 months ago

This is the error I get every time, both in Safari and other browsers, when I try to copy a file or folder from the "Infinite HD" disk to the "Macintosh HD" or "Saved HD" disk. So it doesn't allow me to copy and install anything contained on the "Infinite HD" disk, even though the folders and files appear normal and functioning.

What are you trying to copy from the Infinite HD and why? There might be a better solution to what you're trying to achieve.

@EvkNet can you include more details with what you're running into:

I can add my grain of salt, although I would not understand why one would actually want to do this, but here's what I highly suspect EvkNet ran into (note that this is MacOS9.app but I think it does that in all other emulators too) :

@EvkNet can you include more details with what you're running into:

  • Items you were trying to copy After Dark, but the problem occurs with all files and folders on the Infinite HD drive

  • A screenshot of the error Look at the screenshot posted by that-ben, that's exactly the problem

  • What emulated OS this was running under. Mac Os9

Thank you

This appears to be an issue that affects Mac OS 9 only -- I'm able to copy items from Infinite HD in earlier version of Mac OS. Since the contents of the Saved HD are the same in all OS versions, I would suggest doing this copying in an earlier version and then using the software under Mac OS 9 (assuming that you actually need to be using Mac OS 9 -- it's the the slowest version under the emulator).
