I/O Exception(16): Resource Busy
I have recently started experiencing this message when I try to back up my hard drive. My computer's drive is almost full (5 GB left on a 160 GB drive) and I've been trying to back up in preparation for replacing the drive.
I've been getting this message whenever I attempt to back up the drive. The backup will typically run into this between 40 and 70 GB; always a different file. I have repaired permissions and run Disk Utility to repair the disk. Tech Tool reports everything is fine. I have tried erase and backup; same error message.
The drive I am backing up to is a 320 GB partitioned to 100 GB and 220 GB; I'm backing up to the 220 GB partition.
Is there any way around this? Is it a sign that the original hard drive (or the target) is too full?
