    Sounds like your trying to copy a paid app....

    Even some FREE apps are also copy-protected, and cannot be moved to the SD card.
    Cool CM Tricks
    custom_backup_list.txt - make a list of files in /system that will survive a nightly install (ringtones, notifications, system apps, wallpapers, whatever)
    in Terminal Emulator, set this as your shell command: "/system/xbin/su -c /system/xbin/bash". You get all the features of bash, root access, and you can still use the initial command field for whatever you want (default is adding /data/local/bin to your path)

    Doe it actually allow you to click on the button to move them and then it fails? I know alot of apps i have can not be moved and the option is greyed out when i go into the settings to try to, but noticed alot of the apps came out with an update that allows it to be moved over to the card

    it is not a paid app. I get a message saying failed this app is protected and cannot be moved. It seems od that I can have paid apps on my sd but for the G4 app I can't move it over
