Error message when trying to import iMovie 08 project

I am trying to import an imovie file into final cut express when this error message tells me it can not be done due to a critical error
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi(Bonjour)!
What kind of video and audio media did you use in this project?
Is there any iTune purchased song in your iMovie project?

  • Error Message when trying to save iMovie Project

    I have been working on a project in iMovie for several weeks. Yesterday I ran a back-up of my hd on my lacie, and today, when I work on my project and then try to save my changes I get the following message:
    The project could not be saved. The disk might be full or locked, or you might not have permission to save in the current location (0).
    I have plenty of room on my hd. Any suggestions as to what the problem may be?
    Thanks!!!!!!!!!!

    You'll get this error if you attempt to open a project that was moved to another drive. Moving it back to the drive it was first created in resolves the problem.
    It's okay to move the project to another folder, as long as the folder is in the same drive.
    To permenently house a project in another drive for archiving and/or future editing, open it and use the "Save as..." command to save it in the new drive.
    Hope that helps.

  • Error message when trying to import Quicktime movies

    All of the sudden, I'm getting this weird error message when trying to import various Quicktime movies. I've never seen this message before:
    File Error: 1 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown
    Any thoughts why this might be happening? Any input would be appreciated.

    I now see that two of them have been encoded using the AAC, Sorenson Video 3 codec which is not one I've seen before so I suspect that would be it.
    The other one I'm having trouble with is encoded using Integer (Big Endian), Animation. I know I've seen the Integer (Big Endian) codec before so do you think that because it's animation that's a problem? I imported several other uncompressed files that were encoded with Integer (Big Endian) that worked fine so that's my suspicion.
    Tom, you've always been very helpful on these boards for my questions. Thank you so much.

  • Error message when trying to import CD into itunes

    Error message when trying to import CD into itunes.  "Error occured while converting the file 'name of song' The required disk coannot be found"

    Hi Grigsby9,
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. This error usually appears when your iTunes Media folder location is incorrectly configured in your iTunes Advanced preferences. Let’s check these preferences to makes sure that iTunes is point to a folder that exists:
    Locate and organize your iTunes files - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/ht1391
    Find and change the iTunes Media folder location
    You can change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer.
    1.Mac OS X: Choose iTunes > Preferences.
    Windows: Choose Edit > Preferences.
    2. Click the Advanced pane.

  • I Get an error message when trying to import cd's

    I keep getting an error message when trying to import cd's - "You don't have write access for your media player"
    I already tried going to the itunes media folder and unchecking the "read only" box but it didn't help.
    I recently changed computers but since then I've copied cd's to my itunes folder with no problems. Now I get this message.

    Try a couple folders up - a parent folder's permissions can cause problems with a child subfolder.
    And don't just rely on the read-only box. Go to c/users/username/music, right-click and get permissions, go to the security tab and make sure your username has full control and ownership.

  • Error message when trying to import photos into Bridge CS5

    Hi, when trying to import photos from a card reader into Bridge CS5, I click "get Photos" and get the following error message: "cannot obtain all files from this device. Please ensure the device is connected properly, or that the battery is charged". It imports a small selection of the images from the sd card but that is all. I'm currently using a Windows 7 desktop computer with plenty of ram.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi station_two, thanks for your quick response.
    I can confirm that its not the card reader/cable, usb port, defective sd card or the computer itself. I have already eliminated all these potential culprits through trial and error using different several ports/cards/readers and even a different computer (although not into bridge).
    I am able to copy the photos from the same card/card reader into Lightroom on the same computer (incidentally, when using Lightroom it uses the term 'Import photos'!)
    I am using a number of Panasonic Lumix Micro 4/3s cameras (GH1/GF1/GX1). The sd cards have a combination of RAW and JPEG and the problem exists whether using 4GB or 16GB cards. I have plenty of space left on my hard drive and as stated, I'm running a fast desktop PC (Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit OS) so I'm certain this is not the issue.
    Could this possibly be a problem with the cache?

    I keep getting this error message when updating imovie "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (20).  Does anyone know how to fix?

    If you're having problems with the App Store you might try this:
    1 - enable the Debug menu in App Store:
    open the Terminal application.
    copy the command below and paste into the Terminal window:
    defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
    followed by Enter.
    launch App Store, login.
    2 - select the Debug ➙ Reset Application option:
    3 - try again.

  • Error message when trying to import a CD into iTunes

    I get an error message when I try to import a CD into iTunes that says the disk cannot be found. I recently requested to uninstall Tune-up because I kept receiving annoying messages to purchase the software. It looks like Tune-up is deactivated, but now I can't import music. Any suggestions?

    Without much to go on I think your drive is having problems.  It may be something minor such as dust which could possibly be removed using a drive cleaning disc (computer supply store or CD store), or it could be an irregular error in a laser, or tracking, or loose cable, or...
    One way to eliminate any iTunes possibility is if it is consistently doing this with a particular CD then try an alternative ripping tool such as XLD or Max.

  • Lightroom Error message when trying to import photos.

    I have a Canon 6D and Apple laptop with latest versions of software that I am aware of. Tonight I tried to import images from Micro SD card (inserted directly into laptop) but each time I am getting an error message stating that it can not read my files. It has previously downloaded files from this camera and memory card. The error message is generally giving the number 337 but has also given 555 and 1. I am not sure what has changed and do not know how to fix it. I have tried leaving the SD card in the camera and connecting it directly to the laptop via the cable and it gives the same message. I have also tried googling these error codes but can't make out specifics of the problem and how to fix it.

    The “Cannot be Read” message when using LR to import directly from the card or camera means the DESTINATION you have specified in LR is not writable by LR.  LR first copies the files to that destination, then LR tries to read the files from there, and it is the second step, the read, that gives the error.
    Check your destination and make sure it is where you intend LR to be importing the files to off the card, and make sure it is writable.

  • I get an error message when trying to transfer iMovie folders

    in FCE i go file > import > folder
    then Movies > iMovie Events > Select Folder
    then i get the error message
    so far i'm getting rather irritated.
    not only was i ripped off on my camcorder purchase by a Big-Name NYC store
    i'm finding out that my camcorder isn't recognized by FCE

    What error message? Are we supposed to guess or what?
    Go inside the Events folder and select one of the sub-folders with media. It may not work anyway because iMovie can ingest media that is not supported in FCE.

  • "Input contract violation" error message when trying to import a .wav file into AE?

    I am trying to import a .wav file into AE and keep getting an "input contract violation" message from the program followed by it shutting down. If it means anything, I bought the song online, but it has been paid for and I downloaded the .wav file after my purchase. Any idea of why this may be happening? Are there any particular settings which may be mandatory on the project timeline to import a 3min song? Thank you!

    YOu have not provided any system info, not told us what version of AE you use, your audio setting, what specifics in the audio file and a million other things. See how it may not be possible for anyone to tell you anything beyond "Your computter sucks!" ???

  • Receive an error message when trying to import any videos from iphone to iphoto on my desktop.  Help?

    I have 6 videos on my iphone, varying in length from 24 seconds to 11 minutes, that will not import to iphoto.  I have tried to import them as a group and individually but get a message that 'there was a problem accessing the file.'  I had no difficulty importing over 300 photos from the phone to the desktop.  Any suggestions/help would be appreciated.  Thanks.  Anne

    See if you can use Image Capture to upload the video files to a folder on the Desktop and then import from there into iPhoto.
