subject: trouble copying folder to shared drive
Hi Biodesign Helpdesk representative,
I needed to copy a 78.7 GB folder to my folder on the shared drive at the following location: S:\Research\Cancer_Eradication\Users\kwhittem
However, when I tried to do this, I received an error that stated "
"Cannot copy 11-1-1...\: Access is denied. Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use."
The file currently being copied was .DS_Store
Wait a minute. . maybe this .DS_Store is the problem
.DS_Store is a hidden file with a proprietary format created by OS X to store custom attributes of a folder such as the position of icons or the choice of a background image.2
After deleting this .DS_Store file I was able to copy everything over
okay now I'll pick up where I left off making revisions
