dakota Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 After having numerous difficulties backing up from a hard drive on an iMac G5, I put aside two Maxtor One Touch external firewire drives, one of which was a replacement for the first one. I had numerous issues from Retrospect stalling halfway, without even the ability to force quit ( had to unplug), to the drive unmounting and not being recognized, and TechTool and Disk Warrior encountered problems. I had NO problem backing up to an old 20 gig LaCie drive. So, I bought a new 160 gig LaCie d2, and tried to back up. Below, is what I got in the report: + Executing Immediate Duplicate at 4/5/2006 8:19 PM - 4/5/2006 8:19:02 PM: Copying Macintosh HD… Can't write file “.DS_Store”, error -50 (feature not supported), path: “Macintosh HD/.DS_Store”.

Is the problem on the HD? I ran diagnostics on the internal HD and no problems were found. I have "ignore ownership" unchecked on the LaCie. I am at my wit's end, at this point!
