HT1338 I have a slide show in iphoto that I wish to export to iDVD, and when I attempt that I get and error message triangle, ! with the note "This movie contains an invalid data reference" iphoto help does not seem to have any suggestions, that work.
I have a slide show (project) that will not export. The error triangle appears with the message: "This movie contains an invalid data reference" What is the issue, and what is the solution?
jh
I found that the issue was with the title side, it had too many characters in the slide. When the number of characters was diminished, the show loaded without issue.

"The movie contains an invalid data reference" error in subscribed albums
I'm subscribed to a MobileMe album that contains movies (m4v). Just a few of these movies work well and some other will not play. I get the following error message: "The movie contains an invalid data reference". It seems that these movies are not downloaded since I can't find the original file in my iPhoto Library. For those movies without this problem I can find the original file in the iPhoto Library. It's needed to say that this problems shows up only in iPhoto since I can see all movies at the Gallery app in iPhone/iPod/iPad and also online. Any ideas?
Your profile shows you at 10.5.7. If that's correct download and run the Mac OS X 10.5.8 Combo Update. It wouldn't hurt to reapply it even if you're at 10.5.8.
Also reapply QuickTime 7.5 for Leopard and Compatibility Update for QuickTime 7.5.5. -
I'm trying to export a slideshow and I keep getting this message: The movie contains an invalid data reference. What should I do?
That usually means that iPhoto can't find a clip or a shot that you're using in the Slideshow.

I am having a problem with my cs6 running very slow and when i save i am getting an error message that says, "This document is bigger than 2 gb (the file may not be read correctly by some TIFF viewers.) please help
wen6275,
It looks like you're actually using a camera or phone to take a photo of your monitor.
That's not what is commonly known as a "screen shot".
It looks like you're on a Mac. Hitting Command+Shift+3 places a capture of the contents of your entire monitor on your Desktop; hitting Command+Shift+4 will give you a cross-hairs cursor for you to select just the portion you want to capture.
I'm mentioning this because I fear I'm not construing your original post correctly when you type "I am working with a large files [sic], currently it has 149 layers, all of which are high resolution photographs", so I'm wondering if there's some similar use of your own idiosyncratic nomenclature in your description of your troublesome file.
Perhaps I'm just having a major senior moment myself, but I'm utterly unable to imagine such a file. Would you mind elaborating? -
Does anyone know what "movie contains an invalid data reference" means.
We have three Mac Pros running OS X 10.6 on a network. One Mac often gives this error message with movie files in Quicktime 7.6 for files which are fine on the other Macs. Is there a way I can investigate what is actually going wrong? Thanks!

When I try to download free updates for apps, I've suddenly started getting an error message saying "You cannot update this software since you have not owned the major version of this software".
But I HAVE owned the software, for ages. (And, in any case, the apps in question are all free.)
And I don't have multiple Apple IDs.
What can I do?
Any advice much appreciatedThis can occur if you bought the machine used and iLife was reinstalled with another AppleID.
This also can occur if the "free apps" you downloaded have paid upgraded versions and/or are now payware and you can't get updates.
All software from MAS is copy protected, it might be free as in "no charge" but it's not free in the sense you can share it with others. -
All I want to do is upgrade from 9 to 10 so that I can run my ipad.
When installing iTunes 10 I get an error message "Invalid Drive: F:|". ANy advice?Bissley,
I have received this error in the past and it is usually caused by Windows automatically changing your external drive letters when you install. There are two ways around it; first, follow the directions provided by b noir. Second, within iTunes go to Edit > Preferences > Advanced
Under the advanced options you'll see a recessed section called "iTunes Media folder location". Although you may have set this in the past it, if Windows changed your drive letters it will no longer be valid. Default is usually "C:\blah\blah\mymusic"
Changing it just a matter of clicking "change" and finding your music folder again or change your drive letter back (if it changed at all).
If Windows is changing your drive letters, it is best to set them yourself so that everytime you plug in the devices they use the letter you assigned. Here is a link for that process:

I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries).
Thank you for your help! - I did try looking for all available specs about Keynote on the Apple iTunes website, and found nothing that could help me. HELP!1
Close all iWork applications
2
Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
3
empty the trash
4
shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
5
Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install -
Since update of my Mac Book Pro my previously drafted Notes no longer appear on my Mac but are still available through iCloud on my iPhone and iPad. How do I get my Mac to sync with the other devices as e'thing else has synced on my MAC through iCloud. Also since the update Notes no longer appear as a folder in "Mail" but are now a distinct programme-is there any way of returning Notes to the Mail programme?
Thanks, but I've been on the phone with AppleCare US (where I am and live) and AppleCare UK. They continue bouncing me back and forth without helping resolve the problem.
Perhaps someones knows how to further escalate the issue at Apple? -
Every time I sign into my Macbook, I get an error message from Automator; "The data couldn't be read because it has been corrupted.". I have never created an Automator workflow. How do I find out what Automator is trying to run and stop it?
Maybe it's set as a login item:
- System Preferences: Users and Groups:
- Highlight your user account in the left pane/list
- Click "Login" tab at the top.
See if you have an Automater action on the list
- Note, you can select it, then right-click, and can then select "Reveal in Finder". That way you might have an idea what installed it. -

Have downloaded new Lightroom 5.4 from CC. When trying to launch am getting following error message and then Lightroom crashes: "an error occurred when attempting to change modules". Can't find a thread which relates to this error message.
Hi 99jon,
Many thanks for that. Had been going through this list yesterday and now again today:
Ref Solution 1: Lightroom is at its latest update
Ref Solution 2: It's interesting how I cannot find the Preferences file anywhere on my mac. (new mac pro, OS 10/9.2) . . .
Ref Solution 3: Lightroom doesn't allow me to do anything after the error message appears
Ref Solution 4: don't have any Nik Software plug-ins
Ref Solution 5: checked permissions and changed all to "Read & Write" - makes no difference
Ref Solution 6: I don't have a different user account on my mac.
Not sure what else to do. -
My iphone will not turn on.... it froze earlier today and now it will not turn on all i get is a black screen with the apple symbol every once in awhile... also it will not connect to my computer so i can reset it to factory settings
Sammyhunter lets get you back in action! Has there been any physical/water damage to the device? Try pressing and holding the home and power button together. Once the Apple symbol appears release both buttons. Keep us posted!
