Geos user error messages



 
GEOS ERROR MESSAGES 
 
This document contains a comprehensive list of the error messages in 
GEOS. In GEOS 2.0 there are two kinds of error messages. One kind of 
error appears in a dialog box, and often suggests ways to recover from 
the problem, with buttons for you to tap on.  
 
The second kind of error message appears as a white box in the center 
of the screen. Unlike the first kind of error, these boxes do not 
contain any buttons; in most cases, you have no choice but to reset 
the unit by pressing a fire button and/or the reset button inside the 
battery compartment. 
 
All GEOS error messages contain an error code. Some error messages are 
caused by a temporary condition. In many cases, you can simply repeat 
the operation without the error reappearing. Sometimes the error 
message description is followed by some suggested ways to fix the 
problem.  
 
The message listed here may differ slightly from the message on your 
screen. If the message includes specific information, such as a file 
name, this is indicated by a bracketed word. For example: 
 
FM-06. You cannot copy or move [name] to one of its own folders. 
 
On the screen, [name] is replaced by the actual name of the file 
or folder. 
 
 
DOCUMENT CONTROL ERRORS

DOSEXEC ERRORS 
 
DE-01: Unable to run DOS Program (probably caused by bad path) 
 
 
FILE MANAGER ERRORS 
 
File Manager error messages often appear when you are working with 
items in File Manager, such as the Wastebasket. In many cases, you 
can easily correct the problem and repeat the operation without 
further error. 
 
FM-01. Could not find the file or folder. It may have been 
deleted. Rescan the drives to see the current view of an open 
window to determine if the file is really there. 
 
FM-02. Could not find the requested folder. Rescan the drives to 
see the current view of an open window to determine if the file is 
really there. 
 
FM-03. [name] cannot be accessed. It may already be in use or be a 
read-only file. This message may appear if you attempt to save a 
read-only file. 
 
FM-04. Unable to locate this drive. Restart your unit. 
 
FM-05. You cannot copy or move a file to itself. This usually 
occurs when you accidentally select the wrong file in the file 
selector dialog box. Select a different destination for the copy 
or move. This can also occur when dragging a file icon to the icon 
of the folder which contains it. 
 
FM-06. You cannot copy or move [name] to one of its own folders. 
This usually occurs when you accidentally select the wrong folder 
in the file selector dialog box. Select a different destination 
for the copy or move. This could also occur if you have several 
windows open and try to move a folder into one of the subfolders 
it contains. 
 
FM-07. The destination already contains a folder named [name], 
which cannot be overwritten because it contains the item you are 
moving or copying. This usually occurs when you accidentally 
select the wrong folder in the file selector dialog box. Select a 
different destination for the copy or move. This could also occur 
if you try to move a folder icon into its own window. 
 
FM-08. You cannot perform this operation with the root folder. 
 
FM-09. Could not open the folder. You already have the maximum 
number of 32 folders open. Close one or more open folders and try 
again. 
 
FM-10. Please re-enter the name using a valid name format. For DOS 
files, use the standard DOS format. For other applications and 
documents, the name can be up to 32 characters long. The DOS 
format is eight characters for the file name, followed by an 
optional period and 3-character extension. 
 
FM-11. [name] is not an application or document that can be opened 
directly. 
 
FM-12. You cannot format the drive containing the system software. 
You probably selected the wrong drive letter. Pick a different 
drive and try again. 
 
FM-13. There is not enough room on the destination drive to copy 
this file. Empty the Wastebasket or remove some files from the 
device and try again. 
 
FM-14. [name] could not be thrown away because the Wastebasket is 
full. Empty the Wastebasket and try again. The Wastebasket can 
only hold a certain number of documents. 
 
FM-15. There is not enough memory available to perform this 
operation. Close some windows or applications and try again. 
 
FM-16. Another DOS program is already being launched. [name] 
cannot be launched at this time. Try launching (starting) the 
program again later. 
 
FM-17. Could not delete the folder [name]. It may not be empty or 
you may not have the privilege to delete it. The folder probably 
contains items which you are not allowed to delete, such as read-
only files. Open the folder and try deleting each item inside 
individually to determine which caused this message. 
 
FM-18. This folder contains too many files. Not all of the 
filenames can be displayed. File Manager can only display about 
400 items in a folder window. The remaining items are in the 
folder, but will not display on the screen. 
 
FM-19. Could not rename the drive. You may not be allowed to 
change the name of the selected drive. 
 
FM-20. Could not create the folder [name]. There may not be enough 
room on the destination drive. Remove some files and folders to 
open up some additional space on the drive. 
 
FM-21. A new folder cannot be created at this level. The path is 
too long. You can rename higher-level folders to create a shorter 
path name. DOS has a maximum length for path names. If you have 
used long names for folders or have many folders within folders, 
this maximum can be exceeded. 
 
FM-22. Invalid characters in the volume name. Re-enter the volume 
name using valid characters. You can use the following characters 
in drive volume names: alphabetic characters, digits, and tilde ! 
@ # $ % ^ & ( ) _ - { }. You cannot use periods, commas, blanks, 
colons, asterisks, and any other characters not included above. 
 
FM-27. An error occurred during this operation. Please try again. 
 
FM-28. Cannot find the application for [name]. Try opening it from 
within an application. The document was created using a DOS 
application. You must start the application and then open the 
document from within it. 
 
FM-29. Unable to open the file. The file may be corrupted. If you 
tried opening the file by double-clicking, try opening it from 
within the application. If this is unsuccessful, you may have to 
use data recovery software to salvage your data. 
 
FM-30. Couldn't find [name]. Unable open the file. The file may 
have been deleted or moved. Choose Rescan Drives from the File 
Manager menus, and check again to see if the file is really there.

missing. 
 
FM-32. [name] is not an application or document that can be

again.

OPERATING SYSTEM ERRORS 
 
Operating system error messages have a KR or KRX prefix. Most of 
these errors have very terse text and an error code, and originate 
in the GEOS system software. 
 
For most of these errors, you must restart your unit. Sometimes 
the error message will tell you to press a fire button. In some 
cases, though, this will not work. In either case, you should then 
restart your unit by pressing the Restart button in the battery 
compartment. Often this will fix a problem. 
 
KR-01 to KR-11, and KR-18 
Messages KR-01 through KR-11 and KR-18 have no explanation in the 
error message itself. Often these messages indicate a temporary 
problem in the hardware. Restarting your unit may solve the 
problem.
