Messages And Errors

This section lists all the messages and errors you may encounter in

the SP-12 Librarian. You will never see a majority of them. Use this

section as a reference only.

The only difference between a message and an error, is that an error

indicates that something has gone wrong. The Macintosh will beep

you when an error is reported. A message, on the other hand, just

tells you what is going on.

The messages and errors are listed in alphabetic order. They all

follow a similar format, as illustrated below:

This is the error for “file name”.

This is what the error means, and what you should do about it.

The bold line provides an example of the error as it appears on the

Macintosh. Words in

italics

(such as “file name”) indicate that some

other text will be in its place. In this example, it will be replaced with

the name of a file. The body of the succeeding paragraph explains

the meaning of the message and what should be done about it.

The

SP-12 Link

dialog displays its own messages, most of which are

status messages such as “Reading sounds.” These messages are

also listed here, even if they are redundant.

For those of you with partitioned hard disks, the SP-12 Librarian sees

partitions as individual disks. So a “Disk is full” error means that a

partition may be full.

“File Name” can’t be saved because the file was moved or renamed.

The file, whose name is indicated by

File Name

, can not be saved

because the file has been renamed or moved to another folder while the

SP-12 Librarian was using it. This can occur only when using MultiFinder

or System 7.

You can avoid this problem by not renaming files or moving them to

another folder while they are opened by the SP-12 Librarian.

If the offending file is either a Sound or Sequence file, you can use the

File menu’s

Save As

command to save the information, if you wish.

“File Name” could not be created. Disk is full.

The file, whose name is indicated by

File Name

, could not be created

because the disk is full, or there is not enough space available on that disk

to create the required file.

Create the file on another disk.

“File Name” could not be created. Disk is locked.

The file, whose name is indicated by

File Name

, could not be created

because the disk is software locked.

Some other process has locked the required disk. This is possible if you

are using MultiFinder or System 7 or a Macintosh (not MIDI) network.

Create the file on an unlocked disk, or quit the other applications in

MultiFinder or System 7 and repeat the process.

“File Name” could not be created. Disk is write protected.

The file, whose name is indicated by

File Name

, could not be created

because the disk is write protected.

If a floppy disk is write protected, first eject the disk then slide the write-

protect tab on its back so that you can’t see light through it. If a hard disk

is write protected, consult your hard disk’s manual.

“File Name” could not be created. File directory full.

The file, whose name is indicated by

File Name

, could not be created

because there are too many files in that folder or disk. This error refers to

the number of files, not their size.

Create the file in another folder, or use another disk.

“File Name” could not be created. I/O error.

The file, whose name is indicated by

File Name

, could not be created

because a serious disk error has occurred. Your disk, or disk drive could

be damaged.

Quit the SP-12 Librarian and restart the Macintosh. Try the same

operation again. If you can’t reproduce the problem, it was probably just a

temporary glitch. Keep your guard up in case it happens again.

If you do reproduce the problem, or if it comes up again at another time,

suspect the disk first. For floppy disks, use The Finder to copy valid files to

another floppy. Don’t back up the floppy, since you may back up the fault

with it. Discard the bad floppy disk. With hard disks, remove all your valid

data, re-format the hard disk, then copy your files back onto the hard disk.

If the problem persists on a specific drive, have it checked out by a service

technician.

“File Name” could not be deleted. Disk is locked.

The file, whose name is indicated by

File Name

, could not be deleted

because the disk is software locked.

Some other process has locked the required disk. This is possible if you

are using MultiFinder or System 7 or a Macintosh (not MIDI) network. Quit

the other applications in MultiFinder or System 7 and repeat the process.

“File Name” could not be deleted. Disk is write protected.

The file, whose name is indicated by

File Name

, could not be deleted

because the disk is write protected.

If a floppy disk is write protected, first eject the disk then slide the write-

protect tab on its back so that you can’t see light through it. If a hard disk

is write protected, consult your hard disk’s manual.

“File Name” could not be deleted. File is busy.

The file, whose name is indicated by

File Name

, could not be deleted

because the file is open and in use. For example, you may be trying to

save a sound file as “Sounds 2” when “Sounds 2” already exists and is

open.

If the SP-12 Librarian is using the required file, close it. If you are using

MultiFinder or System 7, close the file from the application that is using it.

If you are sure the file is not busy, quit the SP-12 Librarian and restart

your Macintosh, then try the operation again.

“File Name” could not be deleted. File is locked.

The file, whose name is indicated by

File Name

, could not be deleted

because the file is locked.

Quit the SP-12 Librarian. In The Finder, click the locked file and select

Get

Info

in the File menu. Click the “Locked” box to remove the “X”, thereby

unlocking the file. The file is now unlocked.

“File Name” could not be deleted. I/O error.
