"Directory Error!", "File Error" etc a tip in here

i was saving a project last night and got a directory error or something like that. i got it 2 or 3 times in a row. i think we've all been there a few times right?

so i tried this and it worked. i ejected the CF card and put it back in. POOF! the save was good.

i dont know why i never tried that before but it worked. maybe the CF cards lose their connection physically to the mpc if you leave them in there for a while? cuz there's not really much holding the actual card into the slot ya know?

anyway, it worked for me. next time you're having a problem it might be useful to someone.


peace

I tried the CF thing the other night and it didn't work for me. I don't know if this is in another post but what causes that message? I noticed this happens with some of the hollow sun kits. At first I thought it would go away if I renamed the sample but it didn't ( in case there were 2 samples with the same name)
Anyway I saved it in internal memory then reboot and reinsert CF and the sample saved to CF WTF?

Yeah, really, WTF? I have the same problem and its frustrating, but taking the card out does work most of the time. Still, WTF? That shouldn't be happening.

Hell naw it shouldnt be happenin F#CK! AKAI be pissin me off! I think Ima get the new blue XL!

Not to be insolent, but you would still be dealing with Akai!

True! but I heard the XL is more complete tho!

so does anybody have any insight to why that ish happens? What causes the "directory error" message?
