Resolving Copy Problems

When copying to an existing library, you click OK on the Copy Library form, the Copy Problems form appears listing the copy problems in a sortable table.

To resolve copy problems, do the following:

1. In the Error column for each item, view the error.
2. In the Action column for each item, select an action.
   For example, the following actions are available for the Would Overwrite error:
   • Don’t Copy: Does not copy the item to the Destination Library.
   • Overwrite: Writes the item to the Destination Library, overwriting the item of the same name.
   • Auto Rename: Appends the From Cell name (if different) and the From Library name (if different), to the final cell name by adding an underscore prefix. If a destination cell with the same name already exists, an underscore and a number (for example, _01) is automatically added to the name.
3. Select one of the following options as an action for all items:
   • Fix Errors selects the software’s choice for fixing the problem for all items (for example, using Auto Rename to fix the Would Overwrite error).
   • Overwrite All selects Overwrite for all items.
   
   You can click Fix Errors or Overwrite All first and then select a different action for some individual items.
4. Click OK.

The Copy Monitor status window is displayed.

The copy operation completes using the specified actions.
