"Cannot Eject" after ingest (unmount)
« on: October 12, 2010, 03:37:08 PM »
Over the last few weeks, I have noticed that the CF card will not automatically eject after ingesting the card.  I do have this function enabled and have not made any changes to the preferences in over 10 months.  Its not the end of the world, but a bit annoying.  Any ideas?

Mac OSX 10.6.4
PM 4.6.5

Are you getting any Ingest errors?  Do any other applications have any files open on the card?  Is there any message at all?

What happens if you try to eject the card from the Finder?

No other errors.  Nothing else open.  I can eject card from Finder without any troubles.  See attached image.

Well, that certainly is odd.  The OS is telling PM that the Eject operation failed because another application has some files open on the card.  I don't know if there is a way to list which application has a file open on the card.

What happens if you try to Unmount the card from within the Ingest dialog before you start the Ingest operation?  Will it succeed then?

Anything common about your system and David's?

CF cards unmount fine for me on PM on a MacPro running Mac OS X 10.4.6.

Well if you can help me find a way to reproduce the issue on any of our systems I'd do my best to find a solution or a workaround.
