Can't export!

help! everytime I try to export, iMovie freezes. It is just under 10 GB and I have plenty of room (33 GB)on my hard drive, and on the drive the file is saved to (another 44 GB). I am trying to export to a .mov file for web streaming. As soon as it starts to compress the program freezes. I have rebooted, gotten rid of all extra clips. Is there anything you can suggest?

Thanks to you both. I did pop in some info below, but I am a novice, so I might have missed something. Thisis actually my first real project in iMovie!
Anyway, the file is saved, it is something I have been building for a few days. The problem is when I go to export or share. I have selected both the email and quicktime (all options) presets. As soon as I hit share and select the location, it just freezes up at "Compressing movie." I changed the location from my G-drive to my laptop just in case that was the problem and that also didn't help. I also tried without any other applications open andd have rebooted several times and cleared up space on both drives. I was able to export it to iDVD (just tried it to see what would happen).
Could this have to do with the file size? Is there anyway to compress it before this step? I have some audio spilt from video, but it is mainly just video with some transitions. I did a slideshow yesterday ad was able to export it with no issues whatsoever. And I also exported the raw footage of this same video yesterday as well. The biggest change that happened over the day was that I imported a .mp4 and a .mov file- I cut a couple of pieces out of it and deleted the rest.
So if there is any advice you can give it would be greatly appreciated!
Best,

  • How can I export photos from my iPad or iPod to my main computer or hard drive. My old computer died and I want to get my photos onto my new computer. Thanks in advance.

    HOw can I export photos from my iPad or iPod to my main computer? My old computer died with my photos on it but I want to move my photo library from my iPad or iPod to the computer I just bought. Thanks for any help you can give.

    Sorry but your iPhoto library is not on an iPad or iPod - you may have photos there (most likely low resolution copies) but not an iPhoto library - dying computers (along with software and human errors) are why you always must have a backup - now is the time to load it

  • Can't export iMovie 10.0.1 to Vimeo or anywhere else

    Just started using iMovie 10.0.1 and can't export or share a thing. Get rendering error 50 when trying to upload to Vimeo (and this ia a small file too).
    Just as a side note, I've been using iMovie for well over 5 yrs but this is the first time I've ever experienced continual problems using an Apple product. I don't know why they took a successful software, changed it and in doing so, ruined it.
    So my question to all you smart people out there is how does one export without experiencing rendering error 50???

    Let me make sure I understand correctly what you're doing:
    I'm assuming you have the latest version of itunes, correct?
    When you connect your phone to itunes, do you get any pop ups? If you do, click cancel. Click the button, check for update, is this where you're getting that error message? Are you on a windows pc or a mac? If you're on a windows pc, make sure BEFORE you connect your phone that you disable your anti-virus software, turn off your firewall, disable any malware software & see if that will let you upgrade. On a 3gs, to install any firmware(assuming you're running the latest version of itunes), itunes HAS to contact apple's servers.

  • Can't export iMovie to camera roll on iPad Air

    I can not export an iMovie to my camera roll. When I select 'save video' the box that says 'exporting video' appears but never loads
    I'm using my iPad Air version 7.1.2, iMovie 2.0. I have 41GB of free space.
    The 14 min movie includes video (shot on a Canon camera), photos (taken on a Canon camera) and songs (purchased on iTunes).
    I've read that you need to tick iMovie in settings/privacy/photos - however iMovie does not appear as an option
    iMovie is ticked in settings/privacy/location services
    I have successfully exported the movie to iTunes and have saved this iMovieMobile file to my PC - this file is 3GB or so in size
    The movie plays perfectly in iMovie however I want to export it to play on a PC, TV etc. Please help!

  • Can I Export to Text File?

    hi,
    can i export my ical events to a text file?
    thanks.
    samantha

    I have figured out a way to do this with free available programs:
    Download this program:
    http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/faview.html
    Faview will allow the bookmarks exported in html format to be saved as a text file. This text file is in a uniform state.
    Open the text file with a spreadsheet program. I used the free program called spread32.exe that can be found anywhere on the internet.
    Highlight all the columns and do a sort by Column A. The urls will now be in alphabetical order at the bottom of the spreadsheet. Cut and paste into a new text file.

    I've tried rebuilding the thumbnail database, but that hasn't helped.

    What version of iPhoto and system are you running?
    Try moving the Zoom slider at the bottom of the iPhoto window all the way to the left.  Does that let more than one photo display in the window?

  • Can't print in indesign (icc's) and can't export pdf for PS - booklet workflow?

    I have a book of artwork i've laid out in indesign and am trying to print before binding it. All attempted workflows have been thwarted so far - any help is truly appreciated.
    a) printing with a canon pro9000 mark II:
    Not possible. I've read into it, done plenty of tests and nothing comes close to a print of the same image from photoshop.
    My problems - i can't disable canons color management when having indesign manage colors. The canon presests never grey out (as they do in ps) out and always (seemingly) apply their own icc profile in addition.
    Possible solution (which comes close to but doesn't match my ps prints):
    Disable indd's color management in edit>color_settings (emulate..off) (printer profile in indd's print settings becomes empty and unavailable) and have canon manage color under printer>color_matching>color_sync>my paper's profile.
    This solution is not ideal so i want to export a booklet for ps instead. Here thwarting nr.2:
    b) osx Lion - can't export indesign document booklet as a pdf.
    I've read other posts on this and there are workarounds through postscript but then i'd have to convert everything to cmyk if i understood this right. Not good.
    Is there any way to print my book in indesign or get it into photoshop as a booklet? Ideally with the text still intact rather than flattened into an image?
    I know there might not be answers to the specific issues above but i was hoping anybody could if not help me then suggest an alternative workflow. All i want to do is print my book reliably with icc profiles. Is this really not possible?
    Thank you so much and all help is truely appreciated!
    Cheers,
    Danny
    (i had a former post with a. as a topic which i will delete to avoid redundancy. Also - please forgive if this has been discussed before and point me in the right direction. Last not least i have read most threads on the topic so while a former topic might have dealt with my problems it's solution - by my understanding - didn't work for me. Example: postscript for pdf because of cmyk. At the same time i fully acknowledge i might just have not fully understood the solution. Thanks!)

    I can't help with your color proplem -- don't know the printer -- but you can use a script to impose your booklet in a new file, then export that to PDF.
    The two I use are by Dave Saunders. The first, http://pdsassoc.com/downloads/Buildbooklet.zip merely shuffles the pages in a new file. You then export that as spreads. It's very fast and easy, but cannot handle objects that cross the spine.
    The second is at Dave's CS3 Booklet Script and works by placing pages into a new spread-size document. This one does do cross-spine objects, but neither one handles creep. It's been awhile since I used either, but I think bleeds may be an issue for the second script, too.
    There are also imposing plugins for Acrobat...

    If it does then sign out of the old iCloud account, Keep your info on your phone, sign in with new apple ID, then merge to cloud. Give it a few minutes. You should see the other contacts appear on your new phone via iCloud.

  • How can I export slideshows created in Aperture v3.3.2 from Mid-2009 MacBook Pro-17 to blank DVDs?

    (Fifth futile attempt in two hours, before I learned there was a Post webpage – I’m new to ApSuppCom - and after I learned that I am not allowed to update previous content, so I had to back out, make a few changes, and start over.)  How can I export slideshows created in Aperture v3.3.2 (complete with superimposed captions and music tracks) from Mid-2009 MacBook Pro-17 to blank DVDs ?  (Some other specs: Mac OS Lion 10.7.5; Capacity 499.5 GB;  Processor 2.8 GHz Intel Core  2 Duo; Memory 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3; Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256MB)

    How can I export slideshows created in Aperture v3.3.2 (complete with superimposed captions and music tracks) from Mid-2009 MacBook Pro-17 to blank DVDs ?
    Aperture cannot burn slideshows to a DVD.  It only can export a video of your slideshow.
    In Aperture 3 you use the "Export" button in Aperture's slideshow project to render a video to a folder on your disk.
    Then you use iDVD or another program to burn a video DVD.
    I cannot do a copy (export) without various error messages appearing and the inevitable stoppage occurring.  Always with the DVD Video Player final message reading, “Supported disc not available.”
    Could you please describe the exact steps that are causing these error messages?

  • How can I export a RAW photo from iphoto to anywhere without it changing into a jpg?

    How can I export a RAW photo from iphoto to anywhere (PSE, or desktop) without it changing into a jpg???

    See if any of this info will help:
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    Click to view full size
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.  3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    Click to view full size
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    Click to view full size
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Click to view full size
    NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window".  That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu).  This way you get the best of both worlds.

  • How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09.  I try but it only lets me import 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow.

    How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09.  I try, but it only exports 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow I made on iPhoto.

    how do i change the format to the right one?
    Before you can decide what to do, you have to know what you are starting with. Sony MPEG-1 files would be converted one way while DivX or WMV files would likely be handled in another. Extraneous tracks can be removed directly with QT Pro but if you don't have QT Pro then there may or may not be other work around possibilities depending on the specific audio and video compression formats in use. The best place to start would normally be to double-clic the source file in iPhoto to open it in the QT Player. When it opens in the QT Player, check the "Inspector" window to see what it says on the "Format:" lines. This will tell you the type of audio and video content you are dealing with here. Then come and tell us so we can offer some specific conversion solutions.
