Disgrace: no error msg when GB fails to export to mp3

Gb does not create the mp3 file when exporting to mp3 and does not give any warning or error msg.
Trying to find why this is so, I see several posts in several forums, I believe the oldest I saw dates back 2007.
I think it's a disgrace! This problem exists for so long. It costs so many people so much time. It is such a clear sign of poor listening to customers and poor testing.
I used to be a Mac/Apple fan, dating back to mid-1980's as Apple user.
But this is so infuriating! It's plainly disrespectful.
Yes, now I know, I read the thread. "I think it is 27 characters max file name but not sure"
Why do we not get an error msg when the file can not be saved?
Give me any valid reason to create so much trouble for so many customers! (non-technical reason I mean, I know the techy problems that may make this more
difficult than it looks on the surface...)
This is especialy wrong since it is by no means anything esotheric. Right the first project you do, without doing anything fancy or weird. Just type normal descriptive name and it fails. Without warning or error.
AAAARRRGGGG!
Shame on you Garageband team!

I just came in here to report the very same thing, except in my case it may be due to the very large number of (approx 1000) frames in the movie I've created.
I successfully did smaller versions of the same thing (a series of same size/format logos) but it just goes through the motions (saying it is creating a 9.8mb movie) and saves nothing.
Is there some unstated upper limit on the number of frames when making a slideshow?
I've said it before but Quicktime is the one of the most poorly written and documented Apple apps I've encountered. The amount of time I have wasted on doing even the simplest things...

  • Ver. 9.4.2 error msg when I click Attach to email: "No profiles have been created...

    My Acrobat Ver. 9.4.2 has the following error msg when I click Attach to email: "No profiles have been created.."
    I have created the profile in Windows 7 and it works fine with all of the Microsoft Office programs. I use Thunderbird email.
    I've followed the corrective measures listed by Adobe to no avail. Can anyone offer some help?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    It is possible that even though you are using Thunderbird, Windows might have made outlook your default email client once you installed Microsoft Office. Since there is no email profile set in Outlook, it throws an error "No profiles have been created".
    A work around can be to make create an email profile in Outlook and make sure that it is set as default email client by selecting it as default in "Default Programs".
    Hope that helps.
    PS: Adobe does not officially support Thunderbird.
    Thanks,

  • Get error msg when opening iphoto from Photoshop: "Open iphoto 5 or later..

    I get an error msg when trying to open a photo in iPhoto from Photoshop: "Open iPhoto 5 or later to see photos from your iPhoto Library in this list." ... but in info it says I have iPhoto '08.... I am confused.... what is iPhoto 5, and how is it different than iPhoto '08? I have not had this issue before today.... previously it was working fine.
    Please email me when answered as it took me a while to find this forum and I'm afraid I won't be able to find it again.
    Thanks,

    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.
    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 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 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
    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
    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.

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • Why do I continue to receive an error msg when converting files from pdf to Word?

    Why do I continue to receive an error msg when converting pdf files to Word?

    HI tatamene,
    I'm sorry that you're having trouble converting a document.  For starters, have you verified that your account is active? (You can check by logging in to www.adobe.com and checking under My Subscriptions and Services). Aside from that, I'll need a little more info to get to the bottom of your problem.
    Are you trying to convert the file from within Reader, or directly via the ExportPDF website?
    What operating system and browser are you using?
    How large is the file that you're trying to convert? (There's a file-size limit of 100 MB.)
    Is the computer that you're using networked?
    Do other files convert without error?
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Vista/Adobe 9/sql image Error in Crystal Report:Failed to Export the Report

    When I try to export my Crystal Report (v2008) from a Vista machine (using Crystal RDC export methods) as a PDF, I get the following error:
    Error in Crystal Report:  Failed to export the report.
    This only happens when a particular subreport (that contains a sql image) prints (based on an input parameter).  We have other subreports (within this same report) that print a sql image just fine.  But, when this subreport prints, the above error appears.
    I can run the same report on an XP machine without error.
    Exportmodeller.dll and crtsv.dll are both installed and registered to the
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Business Objects\3.0\bin folder
    I have tried opening the report, removing the image, and then adding it back in again to the subreport.
    Still receive the same error.
    Any suggestions?

    Don,
    Can you please clarify?
    Our VB6 app that uses Crystal XI RDC runtime components.  Our Crystal reports are edited in CR2008 SP1 developer edition (not through the VB.NET embedded report designer).  We have deployed the CRXIRelease 2 runtime components (via the merge module) to our client machines in order to execute the RDC.
    We can print/preview/export to excel, but the pdf creation is failing with this error.
    We are only using the RDC (which we know is no longer supported) because of huge issues with the Crystal for .NET methods we are having with our customers (I have an active case for this issue).  Therefore, we have to rollback our .NET product and revert to the RDC code. 
    Vista is failing to create a PDF for a report developed in the CR2008 SP1 developer edition when using the RDC.
    When you say  "Also, those old dll's will not work in CR 2008. Last patches will give you the option to export to Excel in Legacy mode. We built it into our export dll.", what do you mean by "will not work in CR2008"?
    Thank you

    Export the pdf from indesign some error Pop Up window (Failed to Export the PDF file). How slove the problem
    Please some one help on this

    You need to try exporting the first half of the book.
    If that exports ok then export the other half of the book.
    Whatever half it fails on - keep dividing the book in half to find the culprit page or pages.
    For example if your book is 128 pages long:
    1. Export pages 1 - 63
    2. If these Fail to Export then
    3. try exporting1-32
    4. If these Fail to Export
    5. then try exporting1-16
    If it doesn't fail (step 2)
    Then export pages 64-128
    and 64-90 etc.
    until you find the pages causing the issues.

  • I am getting an error message when i try to export "Not enough memory" what do it do?

    I am getting an error message when i try to export "Not enough memory" what do it do?

    Your 400GB is not what I was speaking of. I was not speaking of disk space. I was speaking of memory.
    The memory in your computer needs to be 8GB or more, and you must have a 64 bit operating system (which can still happen even if your computer is less than 12 months old). What operating system do you have? Is it 32bits or 64bits?

  • Error converting image     get error msg when trying to display thumbnail

    Hi there
    Me again
    I am having some problems displaying thumbnails
    I keep getting the error
    Error converting image (create thumbnail). The "...........public_html/productimages/thumbnails/" folder has no write permissions.
    So I go to my host and change write permissions on the files to 755 and try again and get the same msg
    Then I contacted my host and changed the permissions to 777 and I went to the includes config file and changed the permissions to 777 too and still does not work
    So I go to my cpanel and check all the files are set to 777 I make a new test page with a dynamic table and show thumbnail behavior and get the same error msgs
    So I close DW restart and try again and get the same msg.......
    So then I check the file permissions in the DW split screen window when connected to server..... I right click on some files on my server.... namely the 'thumbnails' file and check its permission and it is only set to 755 but in my host it is set to 777
    So I try to change ppermissions from DW and get the
    "setting access properties failed for: ' error
    So what is the correct permissiion..... 755 or 777?
    I have read two other posts on this forum and I still cant get to work
    Does anyone have any ideas
    I have used up all my options and most of my patience
    I hope I can get this working asap....
    Have a nice day

    I hate iTunes 11 too... and I also want to revert to previous version.
