Cannot export to camera Sony PD150

Please help-going mad- using imovie 3.03 -finished the editing in the timeline and just want to export to my camera a sony pd150 but for some reason it will not record -keeps dropping- have tried differant firewire leads-have tried the cannon xl camera and also a good mini dv machine and they all drop once I hit export button. It is a big file 8 GB and 31 mins long -all best quality.I had no problem inputting the material via firewire and even in camera mode it says camera waiting to record when I hit the record button on my camera.
I imagine the VCR mode on the camera is the same as the requested mode VTR?
Following all instructions and still no joy- help appreciated
One thing is I have all my media on an external drive which is connected to my firewire hub where the camera also goes.

iDVD 3 (as well as iMovie 3) is part of iLife (the orginal one, before iLife '04 '05 '06 and '08).
So I'm quite surprised that you don't have iDVD 3.
Anyway, iMovie 3 is the buggiest version ever and iDVD 4 is much better encoder than iDVD 3, so I suggest you buy a used copy of iLife '04 on eBay.
Just check your system first:

Cannot export camera pictures from IPAD to PC

Hi, I'm new IPAD user. I got IPAD2 last week but have many questions about syncing.
I can import/export songs, movies and pictures to my IPAD but I cannot export pictures from camera to my PC.
I'm not sure I do something wrong about syncing or need to install some program to export?
Thank you very much

There is help in transferring photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc here : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 ; but basically it's not done via iTunes and your PC should see the iPad as a camera if it's got that type of photo on it (with Mac's iPhoto is used).
If you want to transfer photos off that were originally synced from your computer then you can use apps such as Simple Transfer (which also has a free 'lite' version Simple Photo & Video Transfer).

I cannot upload my new Sony Camera software

I cannot upload my new Sony Camera Software onto my computer, help

If you want to import to iPhoto, open iPhoto Preferences and select from 'Connecting camera opens'. After that you can do what ever you like using iPhoto features. There are video tutorials available the will help you get familiar with iPhoto.
If you have specific iPhoto questions, post them in the iPhoto forum. Your chances of receiving good advice will be improved since they specialize in that application.

Audio Delayed When Exporting To Camera

When exporting the movie to my camera, the audio is not quite synced with the video on the Mini-DV tape. I have determined the offset to be about 8 frames. If I then import that video, extract the audio, and then move it to the left 8 frames, it is then synced with the video again. If I encode the project with Toast after I have it synced, and then play the result on the Mac with the DVD Player, it is fine. But if I export it to the camera again, the audio is shifted again on the Mini-DV tape. I have a G4 dual 450 Mhz running OS 10.4 (the latest) with the latest version of iMovie and exporting to a Sony DCR-TRV900 via the firewire.

"..When recording it back to Mini-DV tape this way, is there a significant amount of loss of data even though it is coming over the firewire connection vs the normal export function?.."
No data loss, Gary. This is the proper way to export your edited movie.
You DO get data loss when transferring to a DVD, as a DVD is encoded differently from DV ..the MPEG encoding of a DVD involves compression of the data, leaving only information about the differences between frames of video, instead of keeping the content of all the frames.
You DON'T have any such loss when exporting ('Saving') back to miniDV tapes, as the exact same data which was copied from the tapes, when importing into iMovie, is sent back out to a tape.
There's no data loss, and there should be no audio delay. You can then import again from such a tape and there'll still be no loss. But re-importing from a DVD will produce data loss, as the decompression from MPEG to DV cannot completely rebuild all the data which was in the compressed MPEG data stream on the DVD.
So save your edited work back to tape, Gary, in case you ever need to 'reprise' it, and only create DVDs for sending through the mail, or to present your video with fancy interactive menus, or so that you can easily find particular 'chapters' in your video.

IMovie on iPad 2 will not export to camera roll

I just put together a 6 1/2 minute iMovie on my iPad 2, and I cannot export it to the camera roll (in any resolution). There are a lot of videos, photos (taken with three different Canon digital cameras, panoramic pictures created with the Autostitch application, and photo montages created with the Montage application. The videos include very long segments (1 minute plus) of which I am only using 6-7 seconds. The progress bar when attempting to export shows no progress, even after hours of working on the video. Occasionaly, iMovie says it cannot export the movie.
Any ideas about what is wrong?
I can export simple, small movies, but this was a pretty ambitious project, and I'm not having any luck with it.
Albert

It turns out that imovie does not like to have too many video clips. When you have too many video clips, and you trim them significantly, there are rendering problems if the part of the clip you trimmed overlaps past (either before or after in time) the clips on either side of the problematic clip. If you end up trimming your clips that are imported into iMovie, then everything seems to work fairly well. This is pretty lake, because when I do a quick and dirty edit of a single 15 minute mountain biking segment down to two minutes, everything seems to work fine.

Cannot export slide shows with iPhoto 9.6 and OS 10.10

Hallo!
I upgraded to Yosemite last Friday. Everything seems to work fine only iPhoto 9.6 makes some troubles. I cannot export any slide shows. When I click on "export" the small window opens as always before, the first pic is shown in this window, after that the window disappears and nothing else happens. iPhoto doesn't crash, but it also doesn't export any slide shows.
Does anyone have an idea what the reason could be?
Thanks and best regards from Klosterneuburg/Austria
Andy

Some folks have fixed this by reinstalling iPhoto:
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
*Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

[Error 333] Cannot export movie at all

Hi All,
I have created a new movie using iMovie 8.5 (latest version included in iLife 09).
Unfortunately, when I try to export my first project, after few minutes of processing (the blu progress bar fully completes the process) it gives me an error saying that is Imposssible to export the movie, error 333.
I have not registered yet my iLife, could be that one the reason or could be something else?
To me is so weird, if was the registration it should have been said before..
Thanks a lot
Daniel

Hello,
Are you having a similar problem as this?:
CIRCUMSTANCES:
I have the most recent version of OSX and of FCPX and yet I cannot export or "Share" my timeline's Project.
I have the simplest project (a sequence of small video clips with no effects at all) and the program does not let me "share" anything.
I have been using FCPX since the first week it came out; it's not like I'm completely lost (I have already done many jobs).
DOUBT:
WHY ARE ALL THE SHARE* OPTIONS INACTIVE?
*Either selecting the Project from the browser or clicking directly on the Timeline, the Share options I'm referring to are found on File > Share > ....
ANSWER:
If your Sequence contains one single Clip which was not well imported from the camera, FCPX will not let you "Share" (Export) the Project at all (The timeline's sequence). FCPX is probably wanting to alert you by means of a yellow triangle on the Event's icon, right at the corresponding missbehaving Event. Click on that Event, scroll down through all your clips on the Browser and you will most probably find a clip with the same yellow triangle with exclamation mark.
In order to detect the wrong clip (or clips) on the timeline, you shall click on the timeline you are not able to export (that is, to "Share") and, once you have clicked on the timeline itself, open your "Timeline Index" ( which shortcut is: shift cmd 2 ).
Once in the Timeline Index, click on "Clips" (upper left, under the small search window) and also click on Video (at the bottom of the whole Timeline Index box).
Now you have the whole list of all your clips which are used in the Timeline. Scroll down until you find all the marked clips (they are all marked with the same yellow triangle with an exclamation mark). Eliminate them from either the Timeline Index or directly from the timeline if you want to export anything.
I hope this was helpful to anyone with erroneously imported clips or any misbehaving imported media.

Export to Camera - Puzzle Errors

I'm trying to export DV Videos zu Camera/Camcorder with imovie '06. imovie seems to export and doesn't report any errors but on tape the video shows errors which look a bit like puzzle parts.
The Firewire Cable is ok, the tape is ok, the video is ok, I tried with different files. Importing material with the Camera (Sony HVR-A1E) works well with DV and HDV material. The video to export is simple DV material.
Any ideas, what could cause this errors?

Welcome to the boards.
This is a tough one. Can you discribe your problem a little more? What do you mean by blocky. Do you mean totally pizilated so you can't make out anything or just one big block of color? Can you hear any audio?
Is your camera set to record in the same format you are exporting? DV = DV?
Are the camera heads clean?
Have you successfully exported other projects using this set up?

Cannot export Exchange Infrustructure Technical System from SLD_production

Hi all,
I recently got the XI production system installed, which came with its own SLD (from now on, SLDp).
I want to syncronize this SLDp with the SLD in the development system (SLDd), notice that I have no consolidation system.
So I exported every Technical system defined in the SLDp and imported them into the SLDd, with the idea of exporting later the whole SLDd into the SLDp syncronizing the 2 systems this way.
The only problem is I cannot export any technical system of type "Exchange Infrastructure" from SLDp. They are 6:
XI Adapter Framework
XI Domain
XI Integration Directory
XI Integration Repository
XI Integration Server
XI Runtime Management Server
I'm afraid I could overwrite them and mess up the production environment as soon as I perform the full export from SLDd.
Is it ok if I don't export them, and just go on with the business systems and then "full export" the entire SLDd?
Thanks,
Daniele

Daniel,
You should not try to copy then from one SLD to other. The TS with respect to XI (Exhchange Infrastrucutre) need to be created (I think they get created autmatically when importing CIS information while installing SLD.. not sure) separately for each system.

Why doesn't my macbook support ny camera Sony DSC-WX300 as it used to?

why doesn't my macbook support ny camera Sony DSC-WX300 as it used to? I can't download any of my pictures or videos

Were you importing them into Aperture or IPHOTO - or were you using Sony Software?
I have A Kodak Easy Share - when I purchased a new mac - did not install the Kodak software - just switched to using IPHOTO to do the import.
-- Reason I stopped using the software - it was easier to export all of the photos I chose to keep out of Iphoto onto desktop for Photoshop editing and filing.

Exporting to Camera from Canopus ADVC 110

My saga so far: I bought a brand new Canopus ADVC110 Advanced Digital Video Converter for use with iMovie 3.0.3 on my Macintosh G4. I can't understand hardly A WORD of the instruction manual, but with detailed questions and careful coaching from the members of four different Macintosh forums, over several days of intense effort I managed to create titles in iMovie, import audio, add music to the titles, and get it all to play the way I want.
So far so good. NOW, how do I get it back OUT of iMovie, THROUGH the converter, and IN to my Sony video Hi8 camera, which shoots 8mm tape, not digital (which is one reason why I had to buy the converter)? So far, I've managed to connect the yellow video plug to the yellow video jack on the back of the converter, the black audio plug to the white audio jack on the back of the converter, and that's it. If the manual says a word about sending things back OUT of the converter, I can't find it and probably wouldn't understand it if I could. I don't know what mode to be in, how to know when it's gone from the Mac to the converter, or how to get it from the converter to the camera. ANY HELP is appreciated, thanks!

Here's a whole conversation with a guy on Usenet telling me where-all I went wrong (I haven't repeated his every remark, which were extensive) and what I should have done, with my replies on what I've done or am thinking of doing and why:
Third, you have gotten some pretty hard to follow and conflicting advice here.
To say the least! And you seem to be giving conflicting advice, too, saying I should put my entire four-hour project into iMovie using iDVD to save it, then saying iDVD won't burn more than 90 minutes on one disk anyway! (At least, that's what I think you said.) Also, I've been told that iMovie craps out right about 90 minutes anyway and nobody could possibly do a four-hour project on it, at least, as one project. And I'm a bit hazy as to how to split something into three or four parts and then reassemble it as one, if that's even possible. Luckily, I don't even want to "go there."
The point is moot as putting the whole project into iMovie, either as a whole or in pieces, is the LAST thing I want to do anyway. All I want to do is get the titles and edited pieces--perhaps a 15-minute total--out of iMovie and onto my plain old-fashioned VHS tape (a four-hour total including the fancy techy bits) without having to buy (or steal) a new camera (or a new computer) to do it!
For example, there was no real reason for you to get Toast (I don't think...). iMovie + iDVD is generally sufficient. And the whole thread about media was pretty pointless (particularly the "penny wise, pound foolish" concerns about whether the $10 or whatever you spent on some DVD blanks had been wasted...)
Well, I haven't got Toast...yet. It's just people seemed to feel that iDVD (which I admittedly haven't tried) was more prone to screwups and Toast was a better way to set things up and really see what you were getting before accidentally burning a bunch of "coasters" which I wanted to avoid. As for the blanks, I hate to see anything go to waste, either money or products, and since eventually I'd like to transfer a lot of VHS home movies over to DVD using the Canopus, I wanted advice on where best to obtain high-quality blank DVDs at good cost, which advice I got. Sorry to have to expound over every detail of my thinking process but when you start skipping all over the place people tend not to get what you're saying or why.
If one has 1) a recent Mac with a DVD-R drive and sufficient free disk, and 2) iLife (comes bundled with all new Macs)
How recent? Mine is three to four years old, and I can tell you for sure it has only a Combo drive, not a Superdrive--that's why I bought the DVD burner. Are you saying I should have bought a new Mac rather than add all this equipment to my old one?
Toast is useful for burning DVDs when iDVD won't - such as with unsupported DVD burners, or if you want more than 90 minutes on a DVD. For the price of Toast, you could have probably bought an internal DVD-R drive that is supported directly by iDVD.
Okay, you've COMPLETELY got me there. Where can I get some quotes on how much Toast would cost vs. how much it would cost to have my Combo Drive upgraded to a Superdrive? (At least I think that's what you're suggesting.) Once I learn the best source and cost of the equipment to do this, I'll look into where I can have it done (obviously taking the thing apart with a screwdriver and inserting the new drive myself is not an option.)
After that I'll worry what on earth to do with the DVD burner I bought! It was $129.00 and arrived December 13, and return requests are supposed to be made within 15 days! So obviously I can't return it for money back--at least from the place where I bought it--even though it's brand-new, untouched, never been used as I'm nowhere near the point of burning anything yet! Then returning it in favor of just using the Superdrive on the Mac (assuming I can get one for my Mac) may still be a mistake as how do I know the one I already bought won't do a much better and/or more usable job? I just want something that will work! In this case, one that will make DVDs which will play on my player without having to buy another DVD player (also over $100.00, brand new a year ago.)
Consumer DVD recorders are designed to record "live" direct to DVD from a video source.
DVD-R drives, in conjunction with a computer, aren't.
As far as I can tell, you just answered the question I raised, and in my favor. Or is that wishful thinking on my part and we're really talking about two different things here? I do know it's said a lot of DVDs will play on a computer which won't on a DVD player connected to a TV--which, given the nature of the projects I'd like to do, does me no good--that's why I thought the DVD burner a good idea!
You are assuming that your DVD recorder can record a four hour DVD.
My friend hasn't answered, but I'm pretty sure he said his would, and that people who wanted DVDs were giving him only one blank disk, not two. What mine will do, I have no idea as I've barely looked at it yet. For my own part, whether I end up making my DVDs on my own burner or having my friend make them, I think I will use two disks to get higher quality. I was asking for the benefit of the people who gave him only one blank disk and thought they were going to get the whole thing on that. As for number of copies--last he told me he had 40 blanks given to him by people wanting copies--I think most were VHS tapes but some were DVDs.
Based on what I'd read, I'll guess that:
You don't have all the raw video imported
You don't have enough disk space to do so
The DVD burner you have is not directly supported by iDVD
It isn't clear at all whether the DVD burner that you bought is a DVD-R drive (in an external case?) or a consumer DVD recorder.
Well, you certainly got all those guesses right! That's why I'm putting "the lesser, the better" into iMovie--only the complicated stuff which NEEDS to be done there--the rest of it gets done the straightforward way that I understand!
As for the DVD burner I bought, it is a LaCie DVD +/- RW 16x4x16x Double Layer FireWire device.
The ADVC110 most definitely will export to whatever analog video tape you want. Straight from iMovie. "Export to camera..."
That's what the video & audio out ports on that device are for...
There are one-way devices out there, but the ADVC110 is not one of them. I've never used one myself, but was able to determine this from the very first web page I looked at...
You have mistaken advice that you shouldn't export to cruddy VHS for a reproduction master with advice that you can't do so.
No, I didn't really, although people seemed to think that was what I was saying. Below is my response to a question on another forum explaining what I did, what I want to do, and my rationale for doing things the way I have or plan to based on advice I've gotten. If there is a better way (short of buying all-new everything!) I am open to that advice as well.
(Here follows the entire reply I posted above in response to ThomasG.)
Everybody takes on at least one project where they are completely over their head.
Gee, thanks, now I feel in such good company. So...I'm not an idiot? I have got the project PARTWAY done! Anyway, back in the "old days" of special effects, when the first "Star Wars" movies were done, a whole team of people might take five months to do something that would take five minutes onscreen, while the parts requiring only sets and actors, some of which took more screen time, were accomplished much more quickly, so I am not all that far off!
Asking advice on Usenet for such a project can quite easily cause a whole bunch of wasted time and money, following advice from folks who don't really understand exactly what you are trying to do and what constraints you are under. If you don't have a reasonable understanding of the basics, you will have a very hard time sorting the wheat from the chaff.
It certainly was hard knowing what advice to take. I started out just calling a Sales Rep at the same company from which I purchased my computer and monitor, telling him what I wanted to do, then buying what he said to buy, which I needed EXTENSIVE instructions from various online groups to make work. (The manual on the Canopus was, in particular, next to useless. You could read it all in 15 minutes but you still wouldn't know anything. I hope the instructions on the DVD burner are done by people who understand English.)
Thanks for your lengthy consideration of my problems.

I cannot export to "Uncompressed 10-bit 4:2:2" format. Help!

I need to deliver clips to a stock agency but I cannot export the footage from iMovie with the uncompressed format I need. Not in iMovieHD, nor in iMovie8, nor in FCE. I tried it with a 10 second clip, so it can not be the length or files getting too big!
So what happens?
Exporting to Uncompressed 10-bit 4:2:2
If I try this setting, on all occasions iMovie simply crashes and I get the "iMovie quit unexpectedly" window. The same thing happens in FCE.
Exporting to Uncompressed 8-bit 4:2:2
When I export using this seting, iMovie SEEMS to export the file as it should. But when I open the file in Quicktime, the timebar indicates the full 10 seconds, but the video & audio freezes after about 1 or 2 seconds, the clip keeps playing and I hear & see the last second of the clip again. The same thing happens with files exported with this setting in iMovieHD, iMovie8 and FCE.
I've read on the forum that I should not worry about the quicktime movie not playing right, because the file can be imported into Final Cut without any problems. So I try not to worry about this and hope the stock agency can work with the files... But that still does not explain why I cannot export to 10-bit 4:2:2 without my video programs crashing!
And yes, I've also tried doing this on my Macbook with Intel processor. With the same result.
Can somebody please help me with any suggestions? Thanks!!
Daniëlla

You don't say what's the source of your clips.
If standard DV (..though I doubt that an agency would accept standard def video any more..) NTSC DV is compressed in the camera as 4:1:1, and PAL DV is compressed as 4:2:0 ..so you won't get true 4:2:2 from normal DV, unless you're using a broadcast camera (..probably feeding into the capture device via SDI inputs).
If the source was tape-based HDV or any other hi-def source, then iMovie converts that, during import, into Apple Intermediate Codec, and wouldn't be able to output proper Uncompressed 4:2:2 material.
For Uncompressed 4:2:2, I think you'll need to be using a dedicated capture card - and massive-capacity hard discs! - to be able to import the material in the first place.
iMovie certainly isn't the program to handle pro video of this nature.
Ask in the Final Cut Pro Discussions..
"..I've also tried doing this on my Macbook with Intel processor.." ..but maybe that's just not fast enough (older Mac portables have "shared graphics memory" ..meaning their graphics processor may have to compete with the main processor to temporarily grab free RAM)!

CRVS2010 Beta - Cannot export report to PDF with unicode characters

My report has some unicode data (Chinese), it can be previewed properly in the windows form report viewer. However, if I export the report document to PDF file, the unicode characters in exported file are all displayed as a square.
In the version of Crystal Report 2008 R2, it can export the Chinese characters to PDF when I select a Chinese font in report. But VS2010 beta cannot export the Chinese characters even a Chinese font is selected.

Barry, what is the specific font you are using?
The below is a reformatted response from Program Management:
Using non-Chinese font with Unicode characters (Chinese) the issue is reproducible when using Arial font in Unicode characters field. After changing the Unicode character to Simsun (A Chinese font named 宋体 in report), the problem is solved in Cortez and CR both.

You cannot export the request at the movement -while releasing the request

Hi.. Experts
Today, we had message from our functional consultant that When he is trying to release the TRANSPORT REQUEST (not tasks) he is getting the error " You cannot export the request at the movement "
After 2 / 3 hours, we discovered file exists in Transport Profiel directory
" /usr/sap/trans/bin" directory Fine Name : T_OFF.ALL
After removing that file - The request releasing were happening normally.
In this juncture, Even though the issue is fixed ,
We would like to learn how this file got created and which transactions / which configurations will create this T_OFF.ALL file and stops all Transport releases
Thanks in advance
Rgds
PR

This file T_OFF.ALL has to be created manually in the bin directory to basically stop release of any transport request from all systems. No transaction creates it .
Please go through the links to get more info on this mechanism.
