Can't find machine in AD

$

I have a text file with 1 computer name in it.   I want to read this .txt file and for all machines within it move them to a new OU in AD.

  

$NewOU = [ADSI]"LDAP://OU=_Test,OU=LaptopComputers,OU=BakerINC,DC=COM"
$PCS=Get-Content C:\temp\Machine.txt


foreach ($computerToMove in $PCS) {
    Move-ADObject $computerToMove $NewOU }

  
I run this above script and I get the following error.


Move-ADObject : Cannot find an object with identity: 'BAKLTBOS14' under:
'DC=BakerINC,DC=com'.
At C:\Temp\try4.ps1:13 char:5
+     Move-ADObject $computerToMove $NewOU }
+     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (BAKLTBOS14:ADObject) [Move
   -ADObject], ADIdentityNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Cannot find an object with identity: 'SFRWLMQHAR
   RIN01' under: 'DC=BakerINC,DC=com'.,Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.Co
  mmands.MoveADObject

the computer named BAKLTBOS14 is in AD and it's a live machine so what causes this error?
