You are likely hitting a file size limit. Defrag will not help. Never heard of fragmentation causing such a problem.
Possible culprits are disk format (FAT32 is limited to 4GB file size), transfer protocol (some older network protocols are limited to 2GB or 4GB), and possibly even an app limit (some older apps assume these limits are in place and can't handle larger files.
In fact, I think that older USB implementations may also have a file size limit, though I'm not sure about that one. In your case, I'm guessing your machine to machine connection is the culprit.
The big "take away" message here is that "not enough free space" is often misleading. I get it more often because of file size limitations then actual freespace limitations. In fact, I can't remember actually running out of space in a very long time.

My VM was "suspended" (not shut down) when I used Setup Assistant, and VMware says that the VM should be shut down in the guest OS in order to make the VM run on a different machine, so I went back to the old machine, launched Fusion, shut down Win 7, quit from Fusion, then tried to copy the VM file from old to new Mac. The file is about 69 GBytes (the vm includes the "virtual" hard drive, of course), and there's about 170 GB free on the Lion boot partition on my new MB Pro. When I try to copy the file from one machine to the other in the Finder, a small dialog pops up saying "Preparing to Copy <filename>...", replaced after about 2 minutes of spinning pizza wheel with another dialog saying "Cannot Copy: not enough free space."

I wondered if perhaps I already had fragmentation (I have no idea if Fusion "demands" that the virtual HD be contiguous), so I've purchased, downloaded, and am now running iDefrag. It's found one lonely block in the middle of my otherwise free space. Could that torpedo the whole thing? (I'm not sure what this one block is; I need to read the iDefrag documentation in more depth).

The absolute, easiest way to run "regular" maintenance is to periodically let your computer run 24 hours a day. Periodic maint is built into the Mac OS. It just needs a bit of "space" to run the full routines regularly. It's okay if it sleeps as long as it has power.
Also, reboot once in a while. Yeah, I know. Macs don't need to reboot. But the operative word is "need" to. It is still helpful every now and then. I do it whenever things feel start to feel a bit wrong, which is not often.
Beyond that, unless you are a power user, Macs don't really need periodic maintenance the way PCs do. Cookies, however, are not a maintenance issue, but a privacy and security issue. Generally this is managed at the browser level, but can be managed "globally" by utilities, often "security" apps.

Simply go to Disk Utility (which comes with the system!) and occasionally
click on "repair permissions". It might take several minutes to finish
running but when it does: ignore all the info on the screen that it says
was wrong, re-start your computer.

I don't in fact agree with the basic premises that (a) Apple and Google where happily dividing the pie or (b) that all of the cited ventures are specifically attacks on Google. And not to put a fine point on it but someone might remind the writer that the king is dead, long live the king.
Google happens to be the biggest player in many of those areas, so it appears to target Google, but it is simple expansion of the empire. Not new. Not surprising, and entirely inevitable. Apple always wants control. They do not like other companies to have leveraged positions in their environment. This is not unique to Google. That's why we have Safari (MS), and Quicktime (MS and Adobe), iPhoto (Adobe and everyone else), App Store (Amazon), Apple TV (Amazon and Cable companies), iPhone (cell carriers)...
If it's essential, and more important, valuable real estate, then Apple will attempt to control it as best they can. And Apple is, and always has been, ruthless. Not a little bit. But take no prisoners, Katie bar the door ruthless... just ask their victims.
Still, Apple did not get where they are by wasting energy picking fights they aren't ready to win. Apple will cut Google search out when and if it is in their interests to do so. It will not be easy. It will eventually be possible. Not because of Siri, but because the Google model is severely time limited. Apple did not invent Siri. They bought it. ANYONE could have bought it. Anyone can compete with it, even Google. You can bet your paycheck that Google will try. And, I might add, MS is pretty good at voice recognition.
Everyone at Apple has seen "War Games." As WOPR said, "the only winning move is not to play." No one wins Thermonuclear war, but you can win a cold war.
Cheers,
tod

A 3rd way is to use Snapz Pro X. It is especially useful for capturing any audio or video playing on your Mac, but does still pictures also, like Grab.

MailProblem

Mon Nov 7, 2011 11:38 am (PST)
My power went out while I was reading some mail. When I opened the mail program next time, it said something was corrupt, and I had to close the program and open it again. At that point, it imported all my folders and messages, but I now see 5 new messages on the icon on my task-bar, but I can't find them in my mail program.
How do I rectify this so it reflects only unread messages? I'm using Mail version 4.5
Thanks

Thanks Jay. I thought I had done that initially.
I went through each folder and rebuilt, then finally came to the problem one (It was NOT showing unread mail before me rebuilding). It's fixed now!
Thank you again.

Hal, as far as I know, you can't get books from the iPad to a
computer. Perhaps someone else on this forum might have an
answer....JC

Re: iPhoto timeout

Ever since the Sunday timejump my iPhoto app (version 8.1.2) has shown all times in the lowerleft Information box as being one-hour later than they should be. All Exif times (via Preview) are okay. Date & Time (in System Preferences) correctly shows that my laptop operates in the Eastern Standard Time Zone.
I don't recall that this was ever a problem before.
Thanx. I'm running the 10.6.8 OS. Oneal

This is something fun for the old timers here.
Article by Steven Sande at TUAW named "Using Siri To Talk To A Mac 512".
November 7, 2011, publication date.
Siri on an iPhone 4S was used to create a text file on the 27 year old Mac 512.
I'm traveling and can't provide an easy link to article but browse to The Unofficial Apple Weblog and search. (Just saw Don Giovanni at The Met)
