Bridge: problems with exporting files onto hard drive

Hi -- I regularly export my files on Bridge to my hard drive and this morning it is not working. It goes so far as to show me the job process box (with the bar that shows the level of completion), but after that nothing happens. The bar is blank and photos are not exported. Anybody have any ideas as to why and how to fix this?

A lot more DETAILED information will be needed before anyone can help you.
Bridge doesn't import or "export" anything. Your files are never "in" Bridge. Bridge simple reflects the location of the files wherever you put them on your disk(s). When you move them (not "export" them), they're simply moved or copied, depending on their location, to a new location.
In any event, more info from you is needed.

Exported Files Locking Hard Drives

I recently exported several Quicktime files out of FCP using Quicktime Conversion and onto an external hard drive. But when I try to move these files (or any other files on the external drive) off of the hard drive, I can't. I just get the "circle-with-a-line-through-it" logo.
I unlocked all of the files and granted read and write permissions. And I've tried exporting to multiple drives. All with the same result.
Anyone else have this problem? Better yet, anyone know the solution?

Welcome to the forum,
How are you external HDs formatted? Mac OS Extended (mac) or FAT (pc)?
Have your run Disk Utillity/Repair Disk on the externals? How are they connected?
We need more info from you...make/model of computer software/hardware, connections, exact versions of OS/FCP/QT, formats you're working with...etc.

Automate, Batch problem with exporting files

Hello.
I have already used batch many times where i have for example changed image size and then exported it to another folder. So my actoin looked like:
- image size
- export
- close
Then i have set the batch source and destination folder and it all went smooth. All the work has been done automatically with no click needed.
Today im having problem however: When i do the above steps photoshop do all these actions to all the source files but saves them all as single file whic is being replaced over and over and over againw ith same name... I dont see any difference in what i have done now and what i have been doing all the time but this time it just do not want to modify and export the modifyied source files with their own names to the destination folded... Im stuck with 1 file in destination folder with source name of the first file in source folder (when i look in that folder during the batch process i see the thumbnail image changing)...
All i could do to finally finish my work was to delete "export" and "close" positions from the saved action so it started asking me about compression when each file has been modified... It works, finally i have all modified source files in destination folder, but it kept asking me about compression with each file... it can hardly be called automated process.
Anyone have any idea why it stopped working while it have been working before flawlessly?
Regards
Muniek

When you record the export (save for web),
if you change the name in export dialog, then
file will be replaced over and over.
Do you get a message like this?

Slow system – problem with OS, software, memory, hard drive?

I am running a MacBookPro5,3 (Intel Core 2 Duo – 2.8 GHz, Memory = 2 x 4 GB, Hard drive = NVidia 500 GB - 100GB of which is free space), using Mac OS X 10.6.3.
I was running 10.6.6. Then attempted a software update to 10.6.7 and the system essentially stopped working, Was able to back up data using target disk mode, and then reinstalled 10.6.3 using a purchased snow leopard DVD (had lost the disk that came with the computer). Worked for a while but have been having issues with increasingly long and frequent system slow downs (spinning beach ball). Recently attempted another system update, and the update failed and wasn't able to do anything. Used the 10.6.3 dvd and did a disk utility check – it initially said there was a problem with the hard drive – but on another restart from the DVD this issue disappeared (but still no working OS). Attempted connection of my computer to another laptop using target disk mode – this failed to show the target hard drive and only showed the dvd which was in the computer booted up in target disk mode.
At this point rebooted using the DVD and was able again to install system 10.6.3. However, there are still occasions of sporadic slow-downs associated with specific applications (spinning beach ball for anywhere from 5 – 120 sec). Ran disk utility from the DVD again – states that the permissions and the hard drive is OK. Also, ran a memory test (using Rember) which stated that everything was fine (although the test took nearly 2 hours to run and was punctuated by much spinning beach ball activity).
At this stage i am not sure whether I have a problem with memory, the hard drive, the OS or the software. Clearly something is not right – are there any other options to test my system (since I don't have the original dvd – I haven't been able to run a system hardware test) - other third party options?
Thanks in advance for any advice, and apologies for long post.

Sounds like a failing hard drive or SATA controller. It's not clear whether you have a backup of your data. If not, you should remove the hard drive from the machine and install it an external enclosure or dock, then back it up using another Mac. Then take the unit to an authorized service outlet for testing.

Import Problems with JVC EVERIO HD7 Hard Drive Camcorder

So i just got this new camcorder and low and behold the format it puts out the video in isnt accepted by iMovie HD, the files are in .MOI and .TOD format, any help on getting formatting them right would be greatly appreciated

I've been having the same problem - trying to import files from a JVC GZ HD-10 and the files not being recognised. I've downloaded the QT components as per the above post, but when I try to install them I get this message:
'The installer can't detect an earlier version or proper version for installing this upgrade. Close this message box to end the installation procedure.'
What exactly can't it detect an earlier version of? Does it mean Quicktime? Final cut Pro? Has anyone found a way to successfully import files from a JVC camcorder directly into a Mac with the same spec as mine?

Many Problems With Ipod Video--Corrupt Hard Drive?

Hello,
I got this iPod 30 GB the christmas of 2005. Ever since a few weeks ago, my iPod started giving me my corrupt messages, so then, I kept restoring and it was fine. This again happened to me recently and haven't resolved it yet. So here is my story:
I did the 5R's = Nothing
I renamed it later in the alphabet = Nothing.
I also must add that I have plugged it in and when I go to 'my computer' to try and format like others said, it freezes; on the 'my computer' & 'iTunes'. I really hope you guys can help me.
I also noticed when I was looking at the about section on my iPod, it says my capacity is like 27.8 GB and available is 10.4 GB, so I don't know if that will help.
I really don't want to buy a new one and hopefully you guys can help me out. Thanks in advance.

No problem. Have you tried this iPod on another computer?
Also, while everything else is disconnected, connect your iPod and force it into disk mode. If your computer can see it, reformat your iPod (FAT32, not a quick format) and then give it a drive letter of M or P.
Disconnect the iPod and reload the USB Driver:http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305136
Pay attention to the last item in the article, and reload the USB driver even if no new ones are available for your computer.
Reconnect your iPod and see if you can Restore it.

I see that i have a problem after installing my new hard drive on my macbook pro mid 2009 version. I put a new hard drive, with all of my information from my old drive installed on it, into the computer. but now have the blinking question mark folder

i see that i have a problem after installing my new hard drive on my macbook pro mid 2009 version. I put a new hard drive, with all of my information from my old drive installed on it, into the computer. but now have the blinking question mark folder. I see that it means that it isn't reading the new hard drive.
did i miss a step between transferring all of my information from my old hard drive to the new hard drive and installing the new hard drive into the computer. I believe that i installed properly. it was quite easy.
thanks for your help

It means there is no bootable system on the drive. If you still have access to the old drive, then I suggest you boot from it then clone it to the new internal drive. Use OPTION boot to boot from the Recovery HD on the old drive:
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
     1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
         button.
     2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
     3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
     4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it
         to the Destination entry field.
     5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
         the Source entry field.
     6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Source means the external old drive. Destination means the new internal drive.

How can I fix this problem with exporting Pages files?

Hello,
I'm having problems with exporting Pages files to Word or PDF (I haven't tried the other formats). Whenever I try to export the Page file, I get one message like this: "The document "XXXXXXX" could not be exported as "YYYYYYY". This problem started after the last Pages update, before that it was working fine. I restarted the computer, updated the OS, but the problem hasn't been solved.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
Thank you in advance!
Best regards,
Filipe

Computers are made of parts made by humans and assembled by humans of materials that are not perfect.
For example, a display cable that was accidentally pinched during assembly would pass quality control testing with flying colors and would not fail until the lid had been opened and closed several times.
Likewise a display might not fail until powered on and off a few hundred times.

you should never (ab)use a designated backup-setup for 'ordinairy' storage tasks.
plus, the wireless connection to TC is too slow for iMovie.

Error: There is a problem with the file and it cannot be copied

I've been trying to copy (and essentially move) the contents of an NTFS-formatted external HDD to my iMac's internal HDD so I can then format the external HDD to Mac OS Extended. However, when I simply try to drag and drop, I get an error during the transfer that states:
There is a problem with the file and it cannot be copied.
I tried a basic cp command in Terminal to copy all contents of the external HDD to a folder on my iMac's desktop, and found that while there were no errors, there were many individual files missing full chunks of data (ie. original file would be 4GB on my external HDD, but only 350MB on my desktop).
Any ideas on how I can successfully copy a large amount of data (approx. 170GB) from my external HDD to my internal HDD while avoiding this error, so I can ultimately format my external HDD to Mac OS Extended? ANY help is greatly appreciated.

That's not a good error to see. It indicates something is very wrong. Pulled out of an old programming header file:
ioErr = -36, /*I/O error (bummers)*/
If Apple labelled it "bummers," they had a good reason! Unfortunately, that doesn't bode well for you.
Try running Disk Utility again. Keep repairing over and over until one of two things happens: 1) Disk Utility says no repair was needed, or 2) Disk Utility reports the same error in two sequential repair sessions and is unable to repair it both times.
If you hit the second case, or if you hit the first but still can't copy files, then you've got two basic options:
= Buy a third-party disk utility or two and try them. Try TechTool as a first choice.
= Recover what files you can and write the rest off as gone.
= Send your drive to a data recovery service and hope they can extract more than you can.
Of course, none of this is necessary if you have a backup of the contents of that hard drive. (If you don't, this is your learning experience. Once bitten, twice shy, so they say.) Also, regardless of the outcome, once you've got your data or have decided it's gone, you're going to want to wipe that drive completely clean. Reformat the drive with Disk Utility, then when it's done, select the drive in Disk Utility and hit command-i. (Don't select the new volume you just created on that drive, select the drive itself. Mine looks like "232.9 GB Hitachi ..." with the volume name indented underneath.) Look for an item that says S.M.A.R.T. Status, and if it doesn't say Verified, you might as well throw out the drive. Don't trust any more data to it.
If all appears safe, you can start moving data back onto it. But, as always, make sure you have a backup of everything!
