FAT32 formats
I used the "Disk Utility" in OS X to format a FireWire disk with FAT32. It mounts just fine. But this is what happens if I try to use it (i.e. move something onto it). I get an error message in OS X: "Sorry, the operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occured (Error code -50)."
Error copying files to FAT32 formats
Hi,
FAT32 formats
The reason you can't copy is because of some file names being too long. Not for OS X, for the other file system. If they're too long( i've found more than one line) then the Mac wll NOT copy to anything ISO- or FAT- formatted. I've had to do this, even copying to an OS 9 drive on another computer!
...or a zip disk, floppy, etc.

I found that I can save to the Fat32 drive, but I can't copy any large files without getting an error50 code.

Just wondering if you found an answer to your Error code 50 problem? I've got the same one. Any suggestions?
FAT32 formats
I got the same error code "-50" when trying to copy files within "Finder" , so I tried to copy the files within the Command Line. I found out that if the filenames have (@,[, ], ',' ) you can't copy the files.

This has not been "fixed" in 10.2.6. I believe this is because most PCs would freak out if you gave it filenames with special characters in them. |
