"couldn't save media file" error when saving

I'm using Keynote 2.0.2 and for some reason, it won't let me save my presentation when it includes a 3.3Gb quicktime .mov file.
The presentation runs perfectly on my laptop, but when I save, the spinning ball appears and then I get this:
"The following errors occurred while trying to save this document:
Couldn't save media file - week3edit.mov"
This is driving me nuts, especially as I can insert exactly the same .mov file into a PowerPoint presentation and have it save no problem!
What could be causing this? Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
Barry

Use only numbers or letters in the file name. I've
seen failures in files that use even simple
punctuation. Cynthia's sound.mov should be
cynthias_sound.mov.
The other issue could be "protected" files. You can't
share iTunes Music Store files. If the file extension
is .m4p the file is protected.
These are .mp4 files that I converted. No copyright issues. And there is a space in the file name, but there are in all the other file names as well.
Weird, huh?

Couldnt Save Media File

Hi.
This is what happens when i drap an mp3 onto a page in iweb. I know everyone else gets this error and im wondering what to do about it. It says:
The following errors occured while trying to save this document:
Type: | Description:
Couldn't save media file | Filename.mov
Anyone who can help........ please do as im so frustrated!!!!
Thanks, Ben

Usually what I'd do at this point is to work back to a point where it does work and see if that helps you determine if there's a problem file. For example, delete all the mp3's then save. Quit, reopen iWeb, add one, then save. If that works, add another then save. If it fails on the first one, then it's more of a general problem that may be easier to resolve. If it fails on a specific one, then you can attempt to convert that file to see if that helps.

Error when saving

Hello BW Experts,
I am getting this error while saving a query in Bex.
'The query could not saved due to a problem in transport'.
I am actually creating a test query production. I am not sure why it is refering to the transport. From what i understand there is nothing to deal with transports.
Anyone experienced a similar problem before.
Suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,
BWer

OSS NOTE 194051
Symptom
An error occurs when you save a query:
Error when saving
"The query could not be saved due to a problem in transport".
Other terms
Business Explorer, query, transport, save, R9 124
Reason and Prerequisites
There are 4 possible reasons for this problem:
1. The BEx default transport request or the development class-dependent transport request is not maintained or released in the Administrator Workbench.
2. The system is set to "cannot be changed". Refer to Note 337950 (as of 2.0b SP 11), which describes how query objects can be edited in systems that cannot be changed.
3. You are not authorized to write to Workbench requests.
4. The BEx default transport request or the development-class-dependent transport request in the Administrator Workbench has another target system than the query (the transport destination of the query is determined via the transport layer of the query's development class (as of 3.0: of the package)).
The error only occurs for query objects which already have a development class, that means, which were already placed on a transport request.
Solution
Solution for Cause 1:
a) Start the Administrator Workbench
b) Choose 'Goto' to change to Transport connection
c) Choose "Request BEx" or "BEx development classes" in the toolbar.
d) Create a (new) request.
e) All changes in the BEx are now written to this request.The end user is no longer confused by 'Transport' dialog boxes.
Solution for Cause 2:
See Note 337950
Solution for Cause 3:
Authorize user to write to Workbench requests.
Solution for Cause 4:
Create a request for each target system. Assign the request suiting the target system of the transport layer of the development class (of the package) to each development class (as of 3.0: to each package) used for BEX objects.
If this does not change the situation, further information is useful for error analysis.
Go to Transaktion SE16, Table RSZCOMPDIR. In field COMPID, select the technical name of your query. Read the COMPUID of your query.
Go to SE37, function module rso_elem_get_related. Parameter I_IOBJNM is set to the COMPUID, and parameter I_OBJVERS (object version) is set to A. Only the export parameters E_T_OBJ_EXISTENTIAL and E_T_OBJ_DEPENDENT are of interest.
These entries are then entered in function module rs_tr_objects_check_insert in import parameter I_T_TR_OBJECT. In this parameter, fill field PGMID fixed with 'R3TR' and field OBJECT fixed with 'ELEM'. Field OBJ_NAME is filled with the contents of field OBJNM from export parameters E_T_OBJ_EXISTENTIAL and E_T_OBJ_DEPENDENT. The other fields are not relevant.
The export parameters of this function module are required for further error determination. Add this information to your OSS message. The table of messages E_T_MSG is important in particular.

Error when Saving Files ID=-39

We are using CS5 on iMac and get the following error when saving:
Can't save preview, but all other information was saved successfully. The file ended unexpectedly. Try using a backup copy. ID = -39
Generally after receiving this error the file is corrupt.
What can we do? Do you need more info? I am not sure what to do with this error.

Most probably that is your problem.
Try if saving to your hard disk solves your problem.

OS 10.6.8, Macbook Pro 3.1 error when saving monitor calibration, cannot save.

Macbook pro 3.1 OS 10.6.8, error when saving monitor calibration profile. Tried to name new profile, or save as an older profile, still got error when attempting to save.

Try a NVRAM reset, and then go through the monitor calibration again.
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the third time.
Release the keys.

Float4() causes "error saving Pixel Bender Byte Code file" error when exporting for flash player

Simple test
<languageVersion : 1.0;>
kernel untitled
<   namespace : "Your Namespace";
    vendor : "Your Vendor";
    version : 1;
>
    input image4 src;
    output pixel4 dst;
    void
    evaluatePixel()
        dst = float4(sampleNearest(src, outCoord()));
The above code will produce a "error saving Pixel Bender Byte Code file" error when exporting for flash player in Pixel Bender Toolkit 2.5.449694.
"dst = (sampleNearest(src, outCoord()));" works fine. And anything like "float4 a= float4(b);" will give same error.

Thank you for the error report. I'll put it into our bug database. We're bottling things up for the current version. Gven the workaround, it is unlikely we'll be addressing this bug soon. Please accept my apologies for the annoyance this will cause.
In your second example, float4 a = float4(b), does it return an error if b is only a float4 or regardless of what b is? If b is a scalar float, for example, is the conversion performed correctly? If so, this could be an error that only crops up when using constructor/conversion syntax when the thing being converted is already the correct type.
Thanks,
Chuck.

Invalid image error when saving to pdf

I keep getting an invalid image error when saving a MS Publisher file as a pdf. Can anyone help with solving this issue?

You need to provide system and version info and explain how you actualyl produce the PDF. Unless you use the Acrobat PDF printer, I don't see how Adobe software would be involved in any of this, as recent versions of MS Office products can save PDFs natively...

HUH? Error when saving

We are getting a HUH? Error when saving certain files. Once this error shows up, it will save the document, but will a
lways come up when you resave. It only happens on some documents
We are on a network and share files, but everyone is working in CS4

I have been having this issue on one system. I get an "Unexpected Error cannot save file" when trying to save in any format.
This happens when saving across the network or locally.
(CS3 Vista)
We have been living with this problem since the beginning. We simply do not work on this computer in Illustrator for this reason.

Keep getting Cannot save library file error -50 message on my PC

I keep getting "cannot save library file error -50 when I open up iTunes on my PC
Won't download music purchased on iPhone4 to iTunes in my PC

Same issue here. Running Windows Vista Home Premium Edition and newest version of iTunes. Normally happens when I am ripping a CD into iTunes and by chance multi task or the screen saver kicks in.
What ***** is if you walk away while ripping a CD(because it takes 3 times as long in iTunes vs any other ripper), and it will halt your ripping until you click "ok". I have not tried the "dont tell me again" check box just in case it is a problem I need to know about. This happened about 2 or 3 days after upgrading to Vista and I got an empty library the next time I opened the library. Somehow it got corrupted. Luckily I back up the xml file and just restored that one file from last back up.
(off subject but also getting the maxed our processor still in the newest version for Windows Vista. Wish they would fix that!)

Error when saving an Outlook attachment eg. Word Doc after opening it.

we made the group policy change which was giving an error when saving from opened attached files.
But for 1 particular RDS user the error still seems to be occurring. i've tried the following,
1. recreating outlook.
2. recreating user profile.
3. deleted the group policy history from the registry.
4. tried removing outlook add-ins.
your help would be really appreciated.
kind regards

Hi,
What is the error? Does outlook crash? Would you please also detail the group policy change?
We can try cleaning out the Temporary Outlook Files folder to check the result.
We can refer to the following link for the detailed steps to locate and find the temp folder:
http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/securetemp.htm
Then we need to use OutlookTempCleaner to clean the folder:

Unresponsive Script Error when Saving Changed Set in Flickr Organizer

I'm getting an unresponsive script error when saving a changed set in the Flickr organizer.
The problem started when using Firefox 3.6.8 or maybe an earlier version. It persists in Firefox 3.6.12
I've noticed the error only appears in the Organizer and only when saving a changed set or saving after deleting a set.
It does indeed save the changed set correctly before crashing.
It is not intermittent and happens every time I perform this save.
The error does not occur in Chrome or Safari.
Examples of the error messages can be found at

Upgrading to 4.0.1 has corrected this problem.

Changing file type when saving doesn't work

How can I fix the problem where, if I change file type when saving, eg from tiff to jpg, the 'jpg' suffix is not appended in the save window? It remains as tiff. This has only started happening recently.

I have a G5 iSight running OSX 10.4.11 with all the latest upgrades. The problem is about a week old.
Yesterday I did a clean install of everything (not because of this problem) which I'm sure would have cleared the problem. But I was playing around with importing all my old PS and InDesign settings via copying the old preference files (and others), and the tiff/jpeg problem has reappeared. Seems to me like one of the files I copied, contains the problem. I suspect the only way out of this is to reload PS. But I was hoping it might be as simple as deleting a certain preference file.
