Error -2000 a necessary data reference could not be found

I'm trying to play a DVD movie in QuickTime. When I drag from the file and drop on top of the QuickTime icon I get this message.
Error -2000 a necessary data reference could not be found
I have followed the directions I found on the web site.
In Windows Explorer, double-click the file or drag it to the QuickTime Player application icon.
Choose File > Open and select the file.
What is the problem? Is there no list of QuickTime error messages and what they mean? I've been looking everywhere for something that applies to me.

Try going back to QuickTime 7.4, we've seen the same problem occur with the 7.5 update. How did you make the .mov file that plays all of the files? For us, the problem shows up with reference movies (such as that .mov) made on a Mac, but works fine if it is created on Windows.

  • Used "Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto" now my video files in iPhoto have an error message "A necessary data reference could not be resolved."

    As the title states, I used the app "Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto" to get rid of 6 GB of duplicate pictures.  However, now when I go to view a video in iPhoto, I get the error message "A necessary data reference could not be resolved."  I am able to view the video clips (with sound, etc.) in Finder.  However, I want to know if there is a way to restore them in iPhoto?????
    Thanks,
    Leslie
    I see that the suggested solution is to restore from back-up... is there anyway to do that without bringing in ALL of the duplicate photos I just deleted?

    Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

  • Ever since I upgraded iPhoto to 9.5, my camcorder videos aren't all downloading properly  and I have several of the videos to say a necessary data reference could not be found.  I also can see many of the pixels on the video footage that was downloaded???

    What version of iPhoto and system are you using?  Also what camera make and model are you using?
    See if you can download all of the videos to a folder on the Desktop using Image Capture and import  into iPhoto from that folder.

  • Help, just got a new hard drive installed and now my videos say, "a necessary data reference could not be found"

  • Error -2000 necessary data reference could not be resolved-- HELP!!!

    So, I work in a nurse's office at a medical school editing video on an iMac 2.33 GHx Intel Core 2 Duo with 3GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. Mine is the only mac in the office, the rest of the secretaries, nurses, and grad students are on windows XP.
    My job is basically to edit videos (color correct, blur faces of patients' relatives, etc) from a study they did, and export the videos to a DVD (as a data disk, not a DVD with menus) so they can show them to each other and various committees on their windows machines.
    For the longest time, this went off without a hitch, but most recently, I tried burning some .mov files to disk, and whenever they play on any machine (windows xp) we get "Error -2000 necessary data reference could not be resolved." I re-burned the disks, and now, they are selective! They play on some of the office computers, but not all... including the target machine where they will ultimately be screened for a committee... even on the 2nd batch of disks, that error is still present...
    I know about video editing, and to some degree disk burning (I used the "New-->burn folder" option to create the data disk, burning them at 2x speed for reliability). But I don't know enough about computers to figure out what this error means, or why these disks won't work!! Somebody please help!
    (and you can save the sales pitch... I'm a mac user through and through, and there is no way in heck my office will ever have enough money or motivation to switch over)
    Thanks for your help!!

    I wont address the problem but that you should have your videos. Dont you still have them on your camera? If not, just get it from your friend. Btw, do this the next tíme around ... Whenever you plug in the camera and your  iPhoto/pic Application opens up, BEFORE you have iPhoto import them, use Finder to copy the photos over to your HDD or an external drive. This is so that YOU always have the originals BEFORE your pic Application does.

  • TS5168 some of my pictures say that the necessary data reference could not be resolved. help

    some of my pictures say that the necessary data reference could not be resolved. help

    It means iPhoto can't find the file.
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Iphoto .MOV issue - "a necessary data reference could not be resolved" when opening certain videos

    I have recently perchaced a brand new Mac Book Pro. The apple store very kindly tranfered everything from my old Mac Book to my new Mac Book Pro. I keep my iphoto library on and external hardrive, which seems to be working fine since I moved everything. BUT..."some' movies won't play from my iphoto library and a window appears saying "a necessary data reference could not be resolved". I can find these videos when I search for them in finder manually (I backed everything up before I transfered everything into a file called TEMP VIDEOS), but why can't my iphoto application find them, like it used to...it still still should right!? Very frustrating.
    Please help..
    Thanks

    Actually this happened to me today and although it would not let me play the file it allowed me to use that same file i had exported from iphotos but could not play and then it allowed me to open it in imovie (you can go to import and then get it from the desktop or wherever) although I made a couple of changes to it the main thing is once you drag it into the space to begin a new project you can then right click and select open in finder and that file actually plays......if its cause i made some changes to it i.e trimmed it slightly then its worth doing so.

  • I cannot access my videos anymore in Iphoto. ' A necessary data reference could not be resolved '

    Hi, I can no longer access the videos in my iphoto library. It still shows the screenshot and the duration of the video, but when i open, i get the following message ' A necessary data reference could not be resolved'. What can i do ?
    Tried also to export, but to no avail.
    Thx for suggestions,
    Oscar

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    Did you apply any updates or upgrades to iPhoto or the system between the time you last were able to view the video files and now?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

    * also i saw this comment on another forum but no comments after it.
    (I had the same problem and managed to fix it as follows: I found that I had two Library folders, one in Macintosh HD, one in my User folder. Each Library folder contained a folder for Internet Plug-Ins. I moved the files QuickTime Plugin.plugin and QuickTime Plugin.webplugin from the Macointosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins to User folder/Library/Internet Plug-Ins, and that fixed it.
    Not sure why there are two Library folders, but QuickTime installation seems to have put the plug-ins into the wrong one, and that was the problem)
    has anyone else encountered this problem or have any ideas on the cause or the fix?
    i have done all that can with my limited capabilities and any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    thank you

  • Error in File ****.rpt: The table could not be found in

    Hi ,
    I have a Crystal Report which uses a stored procedure to get it's data.
    The stored procedure has no parameters but it is pretty complex and gives a resultset in the end with a select statement.
    I designed the report in CR 11.5.12.1838.
    The report works perfect in crystal reports designer.
    Unfortunately I am getting an error in Central Management Concsole and InfoView
    The error is:
    Error in File ****.rpt: The table could not be found.
    I am using ODBC connection and I even used to sa credentials to run the report in CMC but had no luck.
    One thing I should mention that the stored procedure name as ;1 in the end.
    I appreciate if you could help me with this report
    Thanks

    The  SQL profiler RPC completed shows:
    exec sp_tables N'My[_]Procedure [_]Name[_]Has[_]Underscores,N'%',NULL,NULL
    and it's variations. Nothing else and that returns no result.
    My procedure name has underscores, I will get rid of that.
    I will recreate my Stored procedure without underscore or any special characters and let you know about the result

  • Script error line 2053 the specified module could not be found URL res://ieframe.dll/preview.js

    Script error line 2053 the specified module could not be found URL res://ieframe.dll/preview.js

    The issue is caused when Windows creates the printer profile in the control panel that it doesn't correctly create it with the drivers.
    We're not going to completely uninstall all the HP software, instead we're going to remove the corrupt Windows printer profile and reinstall it.  Total time for this on an average computer is about 5-10 minutes to completely repair (including reboot).
    1) Navigate to Start Menu > Devices and Printers or Start Menu > Control Panel > Printers
    2) Select each printer profile for the printer with an issue, then select remove device/printer.
    3) Reboot
    4) Navigate to Start Menu > All Programs > HP > insert model # here > Add Printer (or Setup Wizard)
    5) Follow the setup prompts to reinstall the printer profile and it recreates the Windows printer.
    6) Run the HP Update Tool from Start Menu > All Programs > HP if your printer installs it, rebooting afterwards if necessary.
    7) Test by printing google.com (uses very little ink when the test page comes out).
    Let me know if you have any questions or issues.
    Thanks,
    Dan

    Searching the web for "loadlibrary failed with error 126 java" seems to point to issues with OpenGL and certain video drivers and/or environments with multiple monitors. Here are several discussions...
    https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=243153
    Error "LoadLibrary failed with error 126: The module could not - Microsoft Community
    [SOLVED] Issue with Technic Launcher: Load Library failed with Error 126 - Technic Launcher - Technic Forums
    So it seems this issue is not specific to SQL Developer. The last discussion includes a video link in its last post saying that ".dll" is searched for rather than "atioglxx.dll" on 32-bit systems or "atio6axx.dll" on 64-bit system (in the C:\Windows\system32 folder), so a workaround is to copy one of those to ".dll".
