IMovie won't let me export my video HELP PLEASE QUICK

So I have the iPad 3, 64gb Wifi + Cellular and I have iMovie on my iPad. So I've made a 30 second video, with no music and I clicked to export it on my camera roll and it's said "An Error Occurred During Export" or something along the lines,and so I tried doing that with the other options, Facebook, Vimeo, YouTube and all said they could not export. All the footage was taken on my iPad and its not working. I then downloaded another app and it did the same thing. I'm so frustrated. Yes I have gone through my privacy settings and turned on iMovie it was already on. Yes I have done everything everyone else has done, but this is not working. can someone please help me !!!!.

Hello RamoziummOxide,
Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. I would also be concerned if I could not export my project I made in iMovie. You have done several good troubleshooting steps. At this point, I would troubleshoot the iMovie app in general:
iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702
There are a couple of things to keep in mind regarding that article. Step 4 guides in you restarting the application, but I would quit any open application at that point. Also step 6 states to reinstall the application, but before you do that, you will want to backup the content of iMovie to iTunes before you do that because your movie will be deleted if you delete the application. I would skip this step if you are not able to export to iTunes. You can find steps to export your movie to iTunes here:

I hope this helps! I know how much time and work goes into iMovie projects.
Best,

IMovie Won't Let Me Export?

Hello!
My iMovie won't let me export in HD (1080p or 720p), which has proved to be very frustrating.
It first starts exporting:
but then after a few minutes, a message comes up:
What do I do? I've spent ages on this video, and it's really irritating, for me to start it all over again! I've updated all of my software, checked the App store for updates for iMovie, but there's nothing! What do I do???? GAH!!
Please help! Thanks in advance! Thank you!

I have the same problem and then some. I movie won't share this particular project, but it also won't save any changes made to it or any other project. At least that's what it started doing, now when I go to even try to make any changes it wigs out and things get scrambled in the Project window and it plays video from another project.
When I create a new project, the Share menu is available, but it won't save changes to that project either. And by that I mean I can put stuff in the project and do whatever, but as soon as I quit and relaunch the application, the project is empty. I did figure out that if I make changes in a new project and immediately share it to the media browser that it will save the changes, but then it messes up my other project even more somehow!
Tried archive and install, deleting plists, reinstalling iMovie and iLife support stuff (twice), repairing permissions, and changing permissions in the project package. Any other ideas?

9 hours??!
Twice the length of a cinema epic?
How are you expecting to distribute it?
iDVD encoding settings:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
Short version:
Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
That was for single-layer DVDs. Double these numbers for dual-layer DVDs.
Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned abo
In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

IMovie won't let me export in HD

I imported an MP4 into iMovie, set the project preference to 16:9 and it still won't let me export the movie in anything but the "tiny and mobile" options. The "medium, large and HD" options are greyed out.
What could be the problem? thanks

After hours of searching through forums I have found the solution to our problem.
iPhone 4s video is automatically shot in HD. There is no way to turn this off.
In iMovie Version 9.0.4 iLife '11 you can set your project properties (File>Project Properties) to either either 16:9 widescreen or 4:3 standard.
Now HD is specifically widescreen and you can not create HD video in a 4:3 screen ratio. This is what my project was set to after spending over 16 hours working.
Once I change the ratio I was able to share and export my project in 720P and 1080P HD
You will have to tweak your project a little as when I went from 4:3 to 16:9 it cropped some of my video weird.
I hope this helped you as I am thoroughly relieved to have figured this out and slightly proud that I did it on my own.

IMovie won't let me export iPhone 4s videos in HD

I have imported a video file from iPhone 4S to imovie. I can edit it in iMovie but when I try to export it won't let me do it in HD. It keeps creating a m4v file. Help.

Pages won't let me save any document help please!

My problem: I type a text, hit 'save as' , name the file and trouble starts:
A window pops up saying it is a locked document or file in use. Of course after
checking it, none of it is the case, well, theoretical yeah the file is in use as I want to save it (!!!)
Does anybody know if SL has an issue with the application of pages ?
I thought there would only be an issue with apple works in that respect.
I'm not a computer person but appreciate any help with this. I tried to save anything but it won't let me save a document at all...the same window pops up.

IMovie won't let me use the video I want

I have several movies that I am using for a project and iMovie is allowing me to use some of the movies but not all of them. When I looked at the info in all of them, the only difference between them is that the ones that don't work have Codec: Text. Not sure if that means anything, but I really need these videos.

IMovie cannot edit clips with text tracks. The solution would be to open them in QuickTime Pro and delete the text tracks.

Imovie won't let me "export as quicktime". It is only for one specific project, all others work fine

When I choose the option "export using quicktime", it starts the export and then just stops - no error message. It works for all my other projects, but not this specific one - any ideas what could be wrong? Fairly desperate as I am supposed to show this tomorrow!

Imovie won't let me export anywhere "share failure"- ever since the latest update-- help!

I get "video rendering error -50" Any suggestions?

Do all your projects have this error or only one? Does the error occur for all share options?

Premiere Elements 9 Won't Let Me Export Video. What's Wrong?

So I have been trying to edit a recent Let's Play video for my Youtube channel, but there is a huge problem. The program won't let me export my video. I tried to export it as a .mpg; but it will never finish rendering. I've tried other formats and the same thing happens. I tried making a new project file and the same thing happened. It will usually get to 1% or 47% and then the estimated time will start increasing and the video won't save any further. I've edited videos with these type of files before (.M2TS, .MP4, .WAV, & .PNG) and it has rendered just fine. Please help me because I have people who are asking for this video. My computer runs Windows 7 Professional and has 2GB of RAM.

You've got a couple of issues to be concerned with, Cwood.
First -- are you really running a Windows 7 Professional computer with 2 gig of RAM! If so, it's surprising you can even run Premiere Elements. I highly recommend you upgrade to 4 gigs of RAM at the minimum -- and, if your OS is Windows 7 64-bit, possibly 6 or 8 gigs. RAM is your computer's lungs. Without adequate RAM, your computer can barely breathe!
Also, make sure that you have adequate free space on your hard drive (I'd recommend at least 100 gigs) and that you have run Disk Cleanup and the Defragmenter so that Premiere Elements has adequate free space to use for temp and render files.
Second, editing video from recording software like Let's Play can have a number of inherent problems. What format is Let's Play recording your video as? If you open the video file in Media Info or G Spot, what frame rate, resolution and codec is displayed?
Finally, I would very much recommend AGAINST using an MPEG output for your YouTube output. MPEGs, like DV-AVIs, are interlaced videos, and they are really not going to look good at all when you post them online?
Have you tried using Premiere Elements 9's Share/Online/YouTube to output your video?

I have a JVC video camera and it records the video to a .mod format (which Apple devices don't support). I figured out how to get them to iPhoto using iMovie but I want to be able to get the videos on my iPad 2 but it won't let it sync. Any help?

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

Final Cut Pro X won't let me export because I worked from an SD card

Hello,
I made the stupid mistake of editing my project from an SD card and now FCPX won't let me export it. I have since exported the original files onto my hard drive and I attempted to relink the files in the project folder but no luck. The option to relink files opens a dialogue box but the computer can't seem to find the files and the option to manually locate the files is greyed out. This is a time sensitive issue and if I can't solve the problem I will have to stay up all night to complete the project again. The video files are AVCHD, does this have something to do with it? I am not very tech savvy so I have no idea what to do. Help??

TTry the reimport from camera function to import from the card.
