Cannot export using motion

I am trying to export a clip i just created in motion but it will not work. I click on export but the window that is supposed to pop up doesnt show up. what do i do? i really need this clip exported a.s.a.p. Is there any other way to get this clip to a video file?

You've got a deadline and you're using software that you have no idea how to use?
Open the folder containing your Motion project. Open Final Cut Pro. Pick up the Motion project with your mouse. Drag it into Final Cut Pro's browser window. Use it like any other movie.

IPhoto '11- Cannot Export using "File Export"

I just upgraded from iPhoto '09 to iPhoto '11. I imported photos off my iPod touch and edited them. After editing them however, I can't export them to anywhere on my computer. Even before editing I cannot export them.
I've tried:
-Creating a folder manually in Finder
-Creating a folder in iPhoto during the export setup
When it starts to export, it suddenly says it could not create the new folder, despite it already existing. It says it cannot export the photos to any folder either. I've repaired Permissions in iPhoto (as well as in Disk Utility).

Hello All,
I'm quit new with Mac.... and I am wondering hoe to export all my pictures to a Hard Drive that could easily be read where with Mac or Windows.
I've tried the export option, but it just stops after some thousands pictures ( I have almost 13'000 photos). Any idea why this is happening? Is this because I have some .AVI files saved on my iPhoto events?
This might be an issue with the format of your (external, I presume) hard drive. It would be worth trying exporting your files into several directories (folders). Perhaps try about 1000 in each directory.
Can you pin down any particular file that causes iPhoto to stall? If so, is it particularly large, does it work OK in iPhoto, will it fit onto your disc etc?
Regards.

Cannot export a Motion JPEG A quicktime

I'm working with FCP v 6.0.2 and Compressor v3.0.2. I am unable to export quicktimes in the MJPEGA codec. I currently have verison 7.4.1 of quicktime. Is this something new to v7.4?

Hi There
I have this exact same problem now I have updated my final cut to the latest version hoping that it would fix some bugs, instead creating new ones. As you seem to have fixed it, would you mind letting me know how its possible to get back the export to motion jpeg A within final cut?
Thanks in advance

Cannot export slow motion w/o ghost images

Hello everyone,
The home movies and video works in my computer look exactly as I want them to and they export to QuickTime perfectly in "DV Full Quality." My problem is that the movies export both to the camera and to the DVD burner with awful ghost imagery in the slow motion clips. With my earlier version of iMovie, the slow motion rendered just fine to the camera, so I could at least create VHS tapes to share with family and friends. Now the movies export with the jittery ghost images. Color and sound are fine, it's just the slow motion that creates a problem. I'm so frustrated cuz I upgraded to solve the problem and I feel like my works are "trapped" in my computer--I just want to send videos and DVDs to family! IF I upgrade (again) to a new computer (G5?) or the latest Toast, will this solve the problem? Is there anything that can be done? Please know that I am a novice in computer language and need to be spoken to like a small, small child... Sorry for the length of this complaint and THANK YOU for any help!

Hello Bengt!
Well, as it turns out, I don't have iDVD (or whatever it is I need to activate iDVD in iMovie...), but, as I was trying to find it, up popped the prompt I was looking for and had tried to find in the iMovie "help" thingie -- "you have some slow motion clips that need to be rendered, ..." and my problems are now solved!
So, I couldn't follow your advice exactly, but, because I tried, the solution presented itself unexpectedly.
Thank you, thank you! I don't have to buy a new computer (today)

Export in Motion vs. Compressor 2.1

My project takes about 2 minutes to render out directly from Motion, but compressor says its going to take 3 hours?
I know the compressor speed issue was a big deal for a while there, but I never noticed anything like this.
I am trying to render out to Pixlet video at 640 x 480.
My timeline contains an animation codec movie with alpha transparency and a few graphic layers...with audio (3 tracks)..
When I export using motion 2 it takes about 2 minutes...if I say go from compressor, then go over to compressor and hit submit...it takes forever to start, then it crawls and I quit...
I have 24 sequences each of the same length etc...would love a batch, but it will just be faster to do this one by hand I guess???

You might try Batch Export from FCP...

Export using Compressor crashes Motion

Motion 2.1.2
This problem seems to have surfaced out of nowhere. When using the commandshifte command to export from Motion using Compressor, Motion crashes. Every time. Was fine yesterday and have not done any software updates since. Can export directly out of Motion (but need to do a batch). Trashed Motion and Compressor prefs and repaired permissions. Compressor fires up on its own just fine.
Help?

Export to Compressor using any ProRes format does not work.
If anyone would like me to upload the project I can, but it'll be a big one if I "collect media."
Bottom line, this workflow works in Compressor 3.0, 3.0.1,2 but not 3.0.3. It gets a strange pixelation that is unusable.
I cannot describe my dissatisfaction with Apple right now. My business runs on FCS2 and I have had to start this project (which is on a strict timeline.. aren't they all?) from scratch because there is no way out of this bug. The forward compatibility is another issue altogether, which irritates me beyond description.
I have noticed on these boards, that I often do some unique work and no-one experiences the "exact" same problems I encounter. I do tend to push the limits of what FCS can do, but I am not extraordinary by any means. I simply use it the way it's intended.
Exporting from Motion, using compressor, is the best way to format my graphics for my FCP timeline as I have to export many graphic sequences that need to match my FCP sequence settings. There is no reason the "export to compressor" using a custom compression ProRes preset should result in mangled motion graphics.
TO APPLE: Come the **** on. This is YOUR compression algorithm.
Please if anyone has anything to add here I'm welcome to suggestions.
Currently the only thing I can do to alleviate the problem is to roll-back to FCS/Compressor from disc and re edit my entire sequence.
**** poor. **** poor.

yeah, in itunes if you select your phone, you should get tabs across the top for what to sync, under photos uncheck the box
EDIT: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236 is the link to a apple support document with information on syncing photos using itunes.

Does Motion Filtering setting affect Export Using Compressor?

Hello!
Can anyone tell me if my Motion Filtering setting in the video processing tab of my sequence settings has any effect on the ultimate quality of my export when using the "Export Using Compressor" command? I know it certainly would when exporting to Quicktime, but I'm wondering if it matters if I'm going directly to Compressor. I am sending a completely unrendered sequence.
Thanks!
Cameron

Don't feel too bad. None of us can match what the big guys do with our software encoders and burners.
They have the advantage of very expensive encoding hardware/software. They have tons of technical expertise (the so called black art of encoding). And they are working with source material that is expertly lighted, shot and graded. Then they physically stamp their disks, rather than relying on dyes.
It's not a fair fight.
But we can do a very decent job using FCP and/or Compressor and/or DVD Studio Pro and/or iDVD. (I've seen – and made myself – some great looking DVDs by simply taking a ProRes 422 file into iDVD and choosing Professional Quality.)
I always start with a Pro Res master file – either 422 or HQ, depending on the original material. When possible the frame rate and size are the same as what was shot.
A Compressor>Create DVD or Compressor >DVD Studio Pro can produce superior results because you have more control over the process. Starting with the DVD stock preset, you adjust as necessary – bit rate and sometimes Frame Controls. So, for example, using Frame Controls you could reduce the chances of introducing artifacts in the down-convert from HD to SD by turning on the Resize Filter.
Open up the Preview window. Set in and out points to encode a manageable length test file with he stock settings. Burn a test DVD directly from Compressor using a DVD-RW disk. If you like it, great. Make a disk image (select HD as output device in Job Actions) and burn. Or if you want better menus, use Toast,
We're seeing less and less interlaced footage these days, but if working with a video intended for the Web or computer display, the video should be de-interlaced – again, in Frame Controls.
Finally, buy good media like Verbatim.
Good luck.

Error: The chosen certificate was not exported and cannot be used for SSL

Hello there,
when I try to configure the profilemanager in OS X Server and it comes to choose a certificate i get the following message:
The chosen certificate cannot be used.
The chosen certificate was not exported and cannot be used for SSL.
I chose our Wildcard certificate we received from Thawte.
It is completely imported in the Keychain from the Mac.
(Sorry if any sentence is wrong, I translated it from german to english)
Best regards,

Is this a regular web ssl cert or a code signing cert?

Exporting using Compressor failed, and other awekward issues with FCP

Hi FCP gurus! I need your help!
Everytime I try to export using compressor, my submission fails.
I even try a sequence a exported as m2v on Monday, but today is not working.
Compressor will some times say "Unable to view preview, FCP is busy". When I press submit, it goes to Batch Processor but it either will immediately show FAILED or it will just not do any processing. When I quit and restart, then the submission appears as failed.
Also when exporting, FCP comes back with a pop message saying that 4 files went offline. When I try to reconnect them it says: "There are not clips selected that have files associated with them". So, why is FCP constantly not able to fine this files, if they are not been used?
I need to export a file for my soundtrack guy, and he needs MOV, preferable DV-PAL or Motion-JPEG or similar frame-based codecs. What are my options?
In any case, what the problem here is that I CANNOT export anything. What shall I do? I already restarted the computer twice, nothing.
I realized that I have files using in this project, saved in two different external harddrives, do you think this has anything to do with the issue?
I am using FCP 5.1.4
Thanks so much in advance!

First off, fwiw, I never "send to compressor." I export a self-contained QT movie, not a conversion. Then I run that through compressor with the appropriate settings. I like the self contained file, it becomes a master from which I can make all sorts of variations. The only difference, in theory between self contained and reference, is that if for any reason you lose the render files the reference movie will not work.
Q1 No.
Q2 see above
Q3 There is no such thing as uncompressed. It's just a different codec rather than a perfect copy of your timeline.
Q4 lots of reasons for making a conversion, but none of them are valid for making DVD's
Q5 Nothing wrong with letting DVDSP make the encoding-- just be sure to get into the preferences for DVDSP and set the destinations to a folder for the project, so you don't overwrite any other projects. Depending on how long the project is, you can let it encode in the bg while you set up your project, build the buttons etc. It's all the same encoding engine, whether is is done in compressor or dvdsp. I find it much faster to use compressor then to take to dvdsp becaue you can use quickcluster.
Now a couple of questions for you: what sort of footage are you using and what are your fcp sequence settings?

MOTION RENDER ERRORS!!! Do any professionals use motion? What is wrong??!

I am trying to make some network graphics, and for the life of me I cannot get motion to output anything usable! All of this after the stupid "ozone pluggin" problem, I finally get motion to work and now this? What is the deal? Wanted to use motion for its Final Cut integration, but now I must say I am thinking of going After Effects ONLY, C'mon apple, I know you can do better than this buggy, crash prone POS.
Anyone having similar issues or know any work arounds to this problem?! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Now I have applied motion blur to the second image, as it was captured from the exported quicktime file, so that is not the glitches I am talking about. The problem seems to be something to do with the alpha channel and it not being recognized or SOMETHING.... Haha your guess is as good as mine!
Screen capture of what the project looks like INSIDE of motion, before export:
Screen Capture from the exported Animation Codec file:

I agree that it appears to be a premultiplied black vs straight alpha problem.
In the event that it's not, you could try rendering out of motion with the render quality set to "normal" rather than "best".
I have had nothing but problems with "best". Especially with third party plug-ins. And since your canvas-view is probably set to "normal", this could account for the discrepancy between the in-program screencap and rendered-out screencap. I have had alphas disappear from boris filters and artifacts appear at item intersections, etc when using "best".
This almost certainly looks to be a premultiplied black vs straight alpha issue though. Are you resetting the alpha type of the rendered-out file to "premultiplied black" from "straight" in your destination program?

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.
