loving my new pogoplug.  having an issue with one file copying over with my backup program. it copies over to another network drive just fine but when i try to copy to the pogoplug, i get a message that says there was a semaphore timeout or when copying with a straight drag and drop that the path is too deep.

as the file copies to other network drives, i am wondering if there is a pogoplug issue.  i am using XP Pro SP3

I had the similar problem and faced it a lot of times. I often solve this type of problems using "Long Path Tool". It helped me in solving this error and all related errors.

You can try Long Path Tool. It deletes/unlocks, copies/renames path too long files/folders.

It is the best tool to end your problems in unlocking, managing and renaming files that appear to have a long filename.

Since in some instances, you may have experienced problems accessing, managing and even renaming files that have more than 255 characters, this utility has been made to answer this particular scenario. If you have also encountered problems like error messages that tell you that the path too long, too long path, destination path too long or cannot delete file then this program is definitely for you.

This will totally take place of Windows Explorer, Far Manager or other file managing utilities since this is maybe used in any type of Operating System even the earliest Windows 95 version.


You can get it from http://longpathtool.com

Hi Guys, just to update you, finally I found a way to solve it
Do you have error messages?, like :

* Path too long
* Error cannot delete file: cannot read from source file or disk
* Cannot delete file: Access is denied
* There has been a sharing violation.
* Cannot delete file or folder The file name you specified is not valid or too long. Specify a different file name.

For that I tried it with: http://longpathtool.com/
