Cannot copy icon/splash

Post by garyth123 » Thu Dec 12, 2013 2:31 pm

Hi,

I am using LC 6.5 and the new rc and trying to build for iOS. This was fine yesterday but todayI get an error as per the attached screenshot. It doesn't seem to matter where I locate my icn file, and privileges are not the issue. If I leave out the reference to the icon then I get a "could not copy splash" error instead as per the second screenshot. Both of these prevent the build going ahead.

Does anyone know what is causing this and how to fix it?

Thanks in advance.

Gary

Was there a solution to this as I have the same issue?

hi.
this was my experience, maybe useful for others:
when you save a stand alone, LC tries to create a folder named as your project. if there is already a folder with the same name into the folder you decide to compile in, then LC adds an incremental index to that name (i.e. "myProject", "myProject 1", "myProject 2" and so on). BUT: if there is something other with the same name (i.e. an alias), LC gets lost.
i had the same "could not copy icon" issue and i noticed in that folder there was an alias (of another folder located on a remote volume) with the same name as my project. i simply renamed that alias and i managed to compile with no issue.
