    Keep getting this message when I try to copy files to my tablet.

    I've got 3gb of memory left on the tablet. Does anyone know the problem??

    Are you using OverDrive Media Console (for DRM audio books)?

    You don't say how you are trying to copy the files. Can you copy to a micro SD card and put that in the tablet? USB card readers for PC are only 2euro.

    I'm just copying the file from the laptop onto the tablet. Simple copy and paste and this is the first time its given me trouble.

    By any chance do some of your file(s) have an excessively long filenames?
    I remember getting an error similar to this when backing up a PC a while back.

    I think there was a silly 256 character limit.
    I can't remember if it was for the filename, or the entire path.

    No it has 14 characters. I tried moving another file and it works so maybe the file getting the error is corrupt.

    Can you try copying it somwhere else, like an external drive or USB stick? Maaybe there are some dodgy sectors. If its something like a movie or song download by torrent, try rechecking in the torrent program. I have a few dodgy sectors on my HDD and occasionally get CRC errors reported by utorrent. Maybe a disk error check is in order.
