Onetouch 4 internal error 8211

I am getting the internal error 8211 and it appears several people are, does anyone have a solution or know if maxtor is working on it Error shows in backup of Quick book files.

  • cls2643 Sep 29, 2008

    I am getting the same message next to all the Quickbooks files. I purchased the drive specifically to make sure I didn't lose any Quickbooks data only to find out when one of the QB files crashed that I didn't have a current backup.



    In the meantime, I am manually copying the files to the drive.

    I am also having the 8211 error problem with QB...and sadly, backing up QB is the reason I bought the HD. I would appreciate a fix if anyone knows of it. I am also going to contact the computer guy that sold it to me and see what he can dig up.

That error occurs when the 3 Quickbooks files don't have the same date. I'm not sure how they get out of synch, but if you check the dates of the files on your Maxtor backup, you'll find they are different.

The easy solution is to delete the files from your Maxtor backup, and then immediately do another backup. Maxtor will copy the current files over and you'll be all set.

Maxtor OneTouch III, USB 2.0 (500GB) not found

yes someone can get the information off the drive it will cost but yes it all depends how much you value the information thats on the drive that you would want to do this it could just be the controler card on the drive or the onetouch's controler went bad if you know someone who can open the unit up for you (maxtor is no longer anyway) have then open the case and plug it into your computer and see if it will work as a internal drive

When I click on My computer, the maxtor OneTouch 4 Plus

Hi there,
You can try installing the drivers for the hard disk. Usually XP and vista operating systems detect the drives and install the drivers by themselves. But sometimes there are compatibility issues, which then require manual installation of drivers. I wonder what the operating system on your computer is. Please get back to me if you need further assistance.
Hope this helps :)

Backup error

It's been suggested that the software Maxtor bundles with the drive is unreliable at best. you could uninstall the software from your computer then reinstall the latest version to see if that resolves your issue. Otherwise you will be forced to use ntbackup or a 3rd party backup solution.
