Hi!
I have the donation edition which allows changing parallel file operations, however, after seeing this thread: viewtopic.php?t=7831 I have reduced them all to 1 after running into this issue which is affecting ~1k files from 29k.

Upon syncing from my phone via MTP to my HDD, using the 'Update' profile, I get this error on the 1k of files:
ERROR_BUSY: The requested resource is in use. [resources->GetStream(objectId.c_str(), WPD_RESOURCE_DEFAULT, STGM_READ, &optimalBlockSize, inStream.init())]

I have rebooted my phone and laptop. Google wasn't very helpful in trying to figure that one out.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

This is from 6 years ago and was fixed already. Who knows if it's the same issue that cropped up again or something unrelated that leads to the same error?

Hi! I just want to revive this issue; I have v.14 and I'm also having issues with this error. I haven't figured out the pattern as most files work fine, but some don't. Any help welcome! Thanks

Hi,

My recommendation is to compare the results you're getting now with switching to SFTP.

MTP can have issues from time to time and it would be smart to compare and see if sft works better for you you won't need to use the cable.

I use this on the phone:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.xnano.android.sshserver


I sync my phone daily this way.

Thanks for the suggestion. Indeed I managed to sync through SFTP no issues and I was surprised at how fast it is compared to MTP. I might just stick with this!
