Error when exporting slideshow (OSStatus error -9459)

I put together a slideshow in iphoto without problem. The problem starts when I want to export the slideshow - in order to make it available in iTunes. The export process seemingly randomly stops with the error message (OSStatus error -9459).
The slideshow is rather large (500 pictures and some videos), I was not able to recreate the error when trying on a small selection, incl. movie clips.
Is the pure number of the pictures or the resulting file the reason for this? Anything else?
How can I solve this? Did anybody else have that problem?
Btw I am running Lion (but the error also happened with SnowLeopard).
Thanks for any advice.

In your SystemPreferences -> Energy Saver set your Mac and screen to never sleep.

OS Status error -9459 when exporting slideshow

I've put together a 17 minutes slideshow in iPhoto using the scrapbook theme. I've received this error twice now - once when using the default "display" size export to mp4 and a different time when using a more customized export to .mov using no compression.
After the first error, I rebooted and the export worked. I am trying a reboot again to see if I can export again with the new settings.
Anyone know why I'm getting this error and what it means?
"The operation couldn't be completed.
(OSStatus error -9459.)"

You may have a damaged library. Try the following: backup and launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed to rebuild the library. Select the last three options.

This topic has considerable discussion on that particular error message and possible fixes: Error 9459 Potential Fix
Also Apearl reported in this topic, http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11195681#11195681, setting the Energy Saver to never sleep would avoid that error message when exporting the slideshow. Not a fix, but a workaround.
Also if you search the iPhoto forum for 9459 you'll find many more topics covering the problem and some potential fixes.

IPhoto quits unexpectedly when exporting slideshow

iPhoto quits unexpectedly when I export a slideshow. I'm using the following command 'File', 'Export', 'Slideshow tab', unchecking automatically send to iTunes and checking Large. With experimentation I've discovered it will export if I select Medium, and will fail if Display is checked. I've also verified that sharing to iDVD via Share works fine.
I've simplified the slideshow to two slides, and get the same crash.
I'm running this on a Mac Mini, 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 2GB memory, exporting to my Mac's HD, which has 95 Gb free space.
The information that is presented is pasted below -- let me know anything else that would be useful to help resolve.
Can anyone offer suggestions to help me with this? Thanks!

Audio from videos does not export to Itunes/QT when exporting slideshows.

Created a slideshow with photos and videos. Vids have sound- iphoto lowers the music to allow for video sound to play through. It does not work when exported however. Any suggestions? I just changed the settings in Itunes to allow the stock tracks to play (finally)- this is the last hurdle.

Welcome both of you to the Apple Discussions. I don't know if it's a bug or not but Quicktime does not support that type of audio manipulation.
My workaround was to export the slideshow w/o music as QT full quality (.dv extension), import into iMovie HD 6 and add the audio there where I could mute the music where I wanted. iMovie HD 6 was a part of iLife 6. I kept it as it's, IMO, much more capable for this type of audio work than the newer versions.

Osstatus error -108 when exporting slideshow ... what does this mean?

I googles this and can't find anyone who has had it. How can you find out without being an operating systems developer!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What happens to the slideshow other than giving you this error. Don't know what it means. However, several users have reported iPhoto crashing when trying to export a slideshow. You might search this forum for that to see if you're experiencing something similar. As far as I know there was no fix found.
Be sure to report it to Apple via via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

Out of Memory Errors when Exporting Slideshows

Hi -
I've been using LR for sometime now. Today, for the first time ever, I attempted to export a slideshow as a .pdf file, 90% quality setting, 48 slides total. LR created a 41MB file. However, when I played it back, there were many slides which only showed an empty frame with the message "out of memory error" upside down in the lower left corner of the frame. The same slides displayed the message each time I played it, so I'm sure the problem stemmed from creating the file, not showing it.
I have a core 2 duo machine with 4GB Ram and no other applications running at the time I exported the slideshow.
Any thoughts on this? BTW, I'm running version 1.2
Thanks!

Try restarting and reexporting. OOM errors have little to do with how much memory you have or how much is available.

Error when exporting slideshow

First, the hardware: Intel iMac, 1.83GHz, 1G RAM, 130G HD (53G free).
Now, the problem: When I try to export a simple 4-picture slideshow (iPhoto 6.04) to Quicktime (7.1 Pro), the export progresses fine; when it's about to finish, the message "Your startup disk is almost full" appears (only on the first run of iPhoto), then the export fails with "An error occurred while exporting the slideshow". There is 53G of free space on the hard drive, so that's not the problem at all. Console shows the following error:
2006-08-08 11:46:17.930 iPhoto[563] Slideshow movie export failed with error code -47.
slideshow max texture size 1536
I tried large and small size Quicktime export. These were images taken with a 2 megapixel camera (< 1M in size). I fixed permissions, and ran Onyx to clean caches, run cron tasks, etc., to no avail. I downloaded and installed the iPhoto 6.04 update - still no joy. I also created a new account (with admin privelages), and encountered the same error, so it's not an account level issue.
Aside from reformating the drive and starting over, does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.<br>

Jeffrery:
Try reinstalling the 10.4.7 COMBO updater. It's been reported to be able to fix a variety of issues (SeeMac OS X 10.4.7 Special Report follow-up: Another issue (application launch failure) solved by the combo updater). Although not your problem it points out that the combo can fix a variety of issues. Just might do the trick. Be sure to follow that with a repair of disk permissions.

Very poor quality when exporting slideshow

I am using a Canon 5D, and when I view the images in Full screen. They are gorgeous. I created a slideshow. When I play the slideshow in Aperture - again they are gorgeous and crisp, however when I export these images to a Quicktime movie they look blurry - almost like they were taken with a regular point and shoot.
I have selected Export > HD 720p
I understand that slideshows are generated from previews, so I went to Aperture > Preferences > Previews and selected Photo Preview > Don't limit & for Photo Preview Quality I selected 12 (high).
I kept the 2 selections that were there on default selected (these are: new projects automatically generate previews, and use embedded JPEG from camera whenever possible)
Then I selected all of the images in the slideshow, and when I right clicked and selected "Update Previews" I received the message saying that the previews were already up to date. I exported the slideshow - and the quality was still poor.
I then tried to update the previews from the items in the individual libraries themselves instead of selecting the images in the Slideshow (hoping that would make a difference), and tried to update the previews. But I got the same error.
What am I missing? Why am I seeing excellent quality when I preview the slideshow when I click the Full Screen play button - but when I export it to 720p HD it looks horrendous.
Please help!

FTF you need to hold down the alt key when selecting the images and choose generate preview. The update preview option maintains previous settings. Using alt/option creates a new preview.
Second HD720p is still significantly below the resolution of your display so the images will look softer.
But try the previews first and post back.

Grey boxes when exporting slideshow.

When I export a slideshow from Lightroom (1.4.1 Windows), using all default settings it doesn't display properly. The pdf files (viewed with Acrobat Reader8) has right number of pages (photographs), however the photos are not showing. Instead I see a grey box (the size the photo should be) with a red diagonal line. Tried all helpfiles, should be straightforward, what am I doing wrong????
Many thanks!

Well known LR bug.
Regenerate your previews before export to slideshow.

No audio when exporting slideshow in any format

Hi, anybody knows what can be the reason - when I export my slideshows in any format (youtube, HD, different framerates, codecs etc..) I do not hear any sound. Tried iTunes and QuickTime. When i see the preview in Aperture everything is correct.
I'm using trial version of Aperture 3 by the moment.
Thanks a lot for your help in advance!

See this other discussion thread. it appears to be related to HOW you connect the audit (master track versus 2nd track). http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2351791&tstart=45

Partial audio when exporting slideshow

For some reason when I export my slideshpw from iPhot %, only one of the three songs gets transferred into the Quicktime moive.
Any suggestions has to how I can correct this?
Many thanks.

Hi mary,
this was a known problem with some users.
Here are some workarounds they have developed.
Only one song exporting with Slideshows
Right now, this seems to be a know problem/bug. There have been some work-arounds. Don't know if the problem is with iPhoto, Quicktime or a combo of both.
-From Bob Worthington: re-ripping the cuts I wanted as background music for the DVD as a single cut in iTunes. I then made a playlist containing the one extended cut of music.
-Old Toad: share to Quicktime from iPhoto and then import the resulting movie into iMovie you can extract and delete the audio from the video and add the two songs to the video and save.
Quicktime Pro-open the movie and bring up the Movie Properties menu window. In the top window select the audio track and delete it.
If you want more than one song you'll have to join them together with iMovie or some other application. Then open that joined file with QT Player. Then do a select all and copy. Now go to the QT window of the movie and select the Edit->Add to Movie menu option. You don't want to scale it because it will change the play speed of the audio unless it's time is exactly the same as the movie.
You could go the other way, open the movie, select all and copy, and then past with scaling to the audio. That will change the speed of the movie and transitions to fit the audio track. In this case the resulting video file will have the name of the audio track file that you started with.
You may have to play with it a bit to get exactly what you want. Be sure to work with copies of all the media files for the project.
-Peter Burtwistle: I opened the Qt movie that iPhoto makes when you export to iDVD and removed the sound track.
Then made a new soundtrack by opening all three songs in QT, then cutting and pasting them together.
Finally use QT Pro's 'Add to Movie" option to add the soundtrack to the original movie.
This worked well and was fast to do too.
-Joe Lombardo: I ended up having to extend the songs by 20 seconds so I brought them all into GarageBand and made some edits. Then I exported them all to iTunes as a single track and used that for the slideshow
From scotty321 at MacOSXHints.com: If you have Roxio Toast Titanium installed on your machine, you can join unprotected tracks yourself by simulating a disc burn. Simply take these steps:
Go to the Audio tab in Toast.
Drag your audio files from iTunes into Toast.
Reshuffle them in the proper order within Toast.
Go up to File: Save As Disc Image. Save your disc image somewhere on your Desktop.
Choose Utilities: Mount Disc Image. The CD will mount on your desktop, and iTunes will think that you just inserted a CD.
Within iTunes, select the tracks that you want to join and then use Advanced: Join CD Tracks.
Go through the import process, and you've got a joined track! Simply rename the track to whatever you want to call it, and you're good to go.

Burn the playlist in iTunes.
Make sure you have itunes Prefs just open the Cd and not automatically play or import the songs.
Insert the burned CD and iTunes will open.
Within iTunes, select the tracks that you want to join and then use Advanced: Join CD Tracks.
Go to Advanced>convert selection to AAC.
When done, make a new playlist named after the slideshow.
Put the new combined track into the playlist.
In iPhoto, select this playlist for your slideshow.

Where has the 'custom export' options gone when exporting slideshow iPhoto 9.5.1

I can't remember if my iPhoto has updated recently but all of a sudden i can no longer do a custom export and the only window that pops up is this one
when i used to get this one before
am I going mad, or has this just disappeared.

These options were removed by Apple. No one outside of Apple knows why.
