Input/output error when copying files

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:. This error is coming from the device, and nothing that is fixable from libimobiledevice or ifuse point of view.

Does it work with other files? Like can you open files e. Sorry, something went wrong. If the image files are seen in Gnome filesystem i. But the same image returns io error when read via ifuse mount. A very small portion of the image files are readable via ifuse.

I have not found out why. Just to say I'm experiencing the same kind of behaviour trying to copy photos and movies on Debian Buster. Just to confirm that I'm also experiencing this behaviour on latest Arch. Some older? IOS Rebooting phone, computer, and re-pairing with idevicepair doesn't seem to help unfortunately.

Any thoughts? I am also experiencing this problem. Someone recommended on a forum to put the rsync command in loop until it returns a successful exit code, but I haven't tried it yet. This assumes that eventually the files will transfer.

According to the user who gave the recommendation, they do. My backup could never finish because the IO errors would start mid-way into the rsync, and despite running rsync repeatedly, at some point the sync would not progress beyond updating existing files. I believe I am seeing something similar with Ubuntu I was able to transfer media files in this fashion earlier this summer, but now I can't.

I'm not sure when the functionality broke or whether it was due to and iOS or limobiledevice update. I;m guessing the former since the later is ancient and seemingly dead. Laptop with Debian Most files are transferred ok by rsync to the laptop, but some are not. And cp also fails. A not confirmed suspicion some months ago was that the files that fail to be read are received by sms messages or some other messaging tool, then saved to the file system on the iphone.

The iphone can read and show them, but it seemed that they could not be transferred. Now I have seen an example of a file that fail to copy that I am confident was taken with the iphone camera. Did some further testing. This uses PTP mode. And vice versa. Why would the file list be different in this directory depending on how it is accessed?

I have not changed anything in between. I had this issue with about half of my photos. There seem to be some bugs with multiple hardware devices connected and when copying big files from one to the other.

It can also indicate a bad drive or corrupt file though. For me it was due to not properly unmounting the disk, I was able to resolve by returning to the windows machine and properly unmounting and then coming back to my Ubuntu box.

Either a bad drive, or a filesystem problem. Are you sure that corrupted MP3's was work fine bedore copying? Also you can try to use gnome-disk utility to check your drive — c0rp. One of my mp3's was corrupted for sure and in a very strange way. I loaded it into the movies media player and it froze around 12 seconds. So next time I loaded it I skipped to around 15 seconds and it somehow had fused with another song in my library, then after a few seconds went back to normal.

I know that the song was not corrupted because I copied it to my phone some time ago and it's totally fine on there. That's a relief that I got my external recently then. Also, when trying to remove the Jeff directory, I receive the following error message:. Looks like there has been a bug on FreeBSD ntfs-3g package.

Then I reformatted the external hard drive with both zeroing of the volume and bad sector checking like this:. And then moved all the data back to the external volume. For me the problem was simple, the directory I was in was mounted USB stick to my monitor before hibernation, which came back unmounted after hibernation.

After hibernation, I could see ls in the terminal, but nothing was actually there because the USB wasn't mounted. I just had to re-mount the USB. I realized that when I try to access to disk which is occurred this error, it tried to write last files copied were over written to the last file then access attempt fails because the record already written doesn't match with the last copied items so its fails.
