Export to Quicktime Fails

I've created a slideshow with "Magic Move" for animated transitions.  Plays fine.
If just use the default export to quicktime settings, it will export fine.  But the animations are jerky.  If I customize the settings using Animations as compression, the video appears to be fine as it's rendering, but fails at the end with a "not enough memory" message
I've got 8 Gig of memory and about 400 Gig disk space . . . I don't think it's a memory issue.
I've seen discussion of this but haven't found a solution.
Ultimate goal . . . to export a slideshow with magic move animation to quicktime and have the animations appear smooth. 
Anybody know how to make this work?
Thanks in advance.

Yeah, it's pretty simple- with your keynote slideshow open, just open quicktime player, go to "file" then "new screen recording". A little box will open with a record button. Press record, and then play your slideshow in keynote from the beginning. You will have to wait and let it record in real time. After it is done, it will prompt you to save it as a quicktime movie. Then you just have to open iMovie, click "import" and then select the quicktime movie you just made. Then click the musical note button on the lower right, select the mp3 of the VO track or music that you want to use, and drag that onto the timeline. You should right-click and select "detach audio" so you can move it around and get the timing you need. Then just "finalize project" and you're done! Easy-peezie.
And I have no idea about future keynote updates...overall it's a nice program but the exporting problems definitely need to be addressed.

  • Keynote export to Quicktime fails with any animation

    I'm making recordings of Keynote slideshows, and I keep running into the same problem: any time I include an animation, of any sort, the export to Quicktime fails. Any advice?
    Specifically, regardless of the format (whether it's an animated GIF, a Quicktime movie, or ???), I have the animation set to begin immediately, on transition. I can see it animating while I'm talking. When I export it to Quicktime, my voice continues, but Keynote remains stuck on the first frame. Sometimes it does animate a little bit, toward the end of the time that I'm on the slide, but regardless, voice and video sync are way, way off for the rest of the movie.
    Has anyone else encountered this and fixed it? I've seen one person be advised to export using fixed timing, but that's not an option for me: the amount of time I spend on the different slides varies quite a bit.

  • QuickTime fails to export

    For some reason, my system suddenly stopped exporting from QuickTime. I first noticed it last night when I was rendering something from After Effects using the Photo-JPEG codec. It didn't work. Then I tried exporting an animation-compressed movie to H.264 in QuickTime Pro. That failed immediately with an error "-43." In fact exporting to any codec fails.
    I tried doing the export using a brand new user, and that seemed to fix the problem. So obviously it's something in my user folder.
    Here's what I've already tried but with no luck:
    1) deleted all preferences with "QuickTime" in name
    2) re-installed QuickTime using the standalone installer
    Any ideas on what that could be?

    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...

  • Keynote export to Quicktime still fails after upgrade to iWork 09.1

    After the update to iwork 9.1 the export to quicktime still fails with 'there is not enough disk space or there was a problem with the file Error - 108'
    I bought a Mac for my use at home, (got a strong one with work in mind) - keynote with embedded FCP movies in some slides made one great presentation for work. Planned to deploy it to sales and our clients and develop more. but it does not run on quicktime so after 3 months the plan has taken a nose dive.
    Its tough times, Keynote style presentations with live demos of our software (embedded movies) can make a difference. But it will have to run on a PC because that is what our clients and sales force have.
    With export to quicktime not working and removal of export to flash i iWork 09 , there seems to be no way to deploy a Keynote presentation to a PC dominated corporate world? and I would be very interested to know if there is a way.
    I have followed all the posts and even narrowed this issue in my case to hyperlinks
    but none of the solutions solve the problem
    The more complex the presentation in relation to embedded movies, hyperlinks etc sooner or later triggers this problem.

    I'm also trying to utilize Keynote for the PC world and NEED the export to Quicktime. I also don't notice any improvement in Keynote '09. I think the workaround has to be to export the Quicktime files - which I'm now accepting will always have mismatched timings and other problems into another program for "fixing". This weekend I plan to test various. I hate to say I will have to revert to PowerPoint because it accepts audio and video files longer than 99 seconds. FYI, I just read on another post that manually clicking through your Keynote while having a screen capture program record a Quicktime may be a solution, although I'm concerned for audio/video quality. I just downloaded a free trial of Snapz Pro to see if that works today too. Let me know if you find a solution.

  • Failed Export to Quicktime

    When I export to Quicktime, my video plays with all the settings i've chosen, but only for the first 10 seconds or so. Then the audio continues, but the video freezes. I've tried updating my computer, changing settings, and restarting. I can't seem to export to iMovie 09 either. Is there anything else I can do?

  • General error in FCP re: rendering and export  after Quicktime 7.5.5 update

    Hi
    My FCP 6.0.4 rendering and export to Compressor no longer works after an update to Quicktime 7.5.5.
    Rendering fails after a few seconds "General Error!" pops up. Exporting to Compressor, after setting it compressing, Compressor after a few seconds fails. (audio is processed) My current work around is exporting a sequence using Quicktime conversion (time consuming) and then opening in Compressor.
    I've done the usual, deleting prefs, new sequences and projects, even saving movs in different codecs.
    (been using H.264)
    My sequences are all custom sizes but tests using presets also fail.
    Any ideas anyone?
    And I was so happy the Quicktime upgrade could play sequence movs recorded months earlier that until now I couldn't play properly due to previous Quicktime upgrades!
    Apple gives with one hand and takes with the other....

    Hi There,
    Thanks for your reply on this.
    Well basically since I'm using content already in the H.254 codec (eg: a trailer off the internet, or the downsizing of HD footage) i'm just exporting to a codec that didn't have to be rendered and gave quality results. I used motion jpeg B as an export codec because it was quick (although HD space hungry) with no drop in quality. The resulting exports could be imported into a custom sequence (720 x 405) as square pixel aspect ratio files. Overlapping the canvas with other windows (eg: viewer) meant I could play a clip (with dropped frames) but not have to render it. I selected the H.264 codec as the sequence codec because I've found other codecs introduce darkening or lightening or blurring or other undesirable artefacts when exported to Compressor. H.264 used in the sequence settings exported through Compressor would give resulting m2v's as sharp and contrast accurate as the source file.
    That was until the recent 7.5.5 Quicktime update where attempts to do the same things I did before result in "General Error!" coming up after a few seconds of play or rendering.
    Traditional DV codecs are "blurry" in my opinion, especially when coping with web content or conversion of HD downloads.
    If you can suggest an editing codec that works best with FCP that is quick, doesn't introduce blurring or general degrading of the image I'd be happy to try it out. I typically downsize HD content from the web for DVD playback, so it's usually in a H.264 codec already. So i would need a codec for export from Quicktime that would work best with a codec in FCP. That doesn't alter picture quality when compressed to m2v in Compressor.
    Thanks!

  • IMovie Export using Quicktime in 1080p gives error OSStatus error -2125

    Hi, I am new to using iMovie, started using it few days back.  So far i have been unable to "Export using Quicktime" in 1920*1080p option.
    I was able to export using "Export to Quicktime" in 640*480p (.mp4 format) option and was able to use "Export Movie" with 1920*1080p (.mov format) option.
    Trying to export using "Export using Quicktime" in 1080p always failed so far.  I tried at least a dozen times with different settings.  Initially i was getting the following two errors randomly, but later, the last 4-5 trials i keep getting only the first error.
    1. OSStatus error - 2125
    2. Not enough room in the heap zone.
    Project details are - it is a 34 min. video and size came to 5.3GB when exported using "Export Movie" (.mov format) using 1080p option. 
    It indicates 2 hours to export it, takes 2 hours and interestingly, the OSStats error - 2125 error happens at the end of the export. I can see in the finder the increasing size of the file the process is creating.  It has been a really frustrating experience with iMovie so far.  I even tried duplicating the project with a different name and tried export, did not help.
    I have >300GB of free space on my hard drive and 8 GB of RAM.  I don't have any heavy applications running on the system. 
    I read forums about this error and tried the following so far with no help.
    1. Tried changing names of the iMovie project few times to see if that helps. 
    2. Set the sleep settings of the computer as well as monitor to Never.
    3. Reached out to apple support about it and they suggested me to setthe sleep settings to never and then try.  But that did not help.
    I am stuck with this error OSStatus error - 2125. 
    The settings I am trying with are:
    Export to MPEG-4
    H.264 video format
    20Mbps bit rate
    30 fps
    One question is, once I exported a project in one format or setting, do I have to create a new project to export it in different settings or I can just use the same project?
    Can someone please help?  Any help about this is greatly appreciated.   Thank you.

    I am having the same issue. Have been searchin gfor 3 days for an answer. I am able to export as MOV file, but not MP4. I bought QT Pro 7 to convert THE MOV to MP4 and it doesnt work either. I then bought iskysoft Video Converter and it wont convert the MOV to MP4 either. (will convert smaller files)
    I have 700 GB of free space on drive. I have tried a movie that is 3 hours, one that is one hour, and one that is 54 minutes..All same thing.. Error -2125. Although it will work with smaller movies under 30 mins.
    Surely there has to be an answer to this? It seems it has been an ongoing issue for quite some time, yet there is no solution.

  • Exporting avi give "Failed -50" message

    I've been trying to export some avi files into .mv4 and .mp4 files, but every time I've tried the export fails near the end with an error code of -50. I've tried different files and keep getting the same message. The avi files play fine, and they are all under 1 gig, more like 600 MB. Anybody have any ideas?

    It seems ANY desirable export from Quicktime Player 7.0.4 fails for me with Error -50.
    I have 640x480 MPEG-4 video clips from a Kodak Easyshare 360. I was able to export them to DV Stream, then bring DV into iMovie HD 6.0.1, only a week ago.
    At least, I thought I did! Now, the same export fails every time at the very end with Error -50. I can only do it by first exporting to .MOV to Quicktime .MOV, then exporting .MOV to DV. It quickly turns into a blotchy mess.
    The MPEG-4 files (which have the .MOV suffix) can't be dragged directly into iMovie's clips field, either. They start to import, then fail for an "unknown reason."

  • How can I export via QuickTime in iMovie '13 (10.0)?

    Prior versions of iMovie had an export via QuickTime option, which allowed me to select the file format, encoding settings, etc. After upgrading to the new iMovie, that appears to have gone away. The Share -> File option does not allow me that level of control over the output file. Has that functionality been removed from iMovie?

    I'm also having trouble with this. The new version of iMovie lost a lot of its features and is clearly focused toward the social media side of things. After importing using SD cameras that import video in a *square* PiP format, I am finding it impossible to update any of my settings to export the video in any other format that wouldn't cut out the picture. Basically, the only settings I've found in the share option of the iMovie 10.0 cu off the tops and bottoms of all my recording. Previously, I used QuickTime settings to pick what format and quality I wanted to export in. Does anyone have any insight about how to export using, say, a 640 x 480 format or in being able to adjust to any format other than the standard ones giving.
    Is there any other video software I can be using to import and export with that gives me more functionality?

  • Error code = -50 every time I try and publish or export (except Quicktime)

    When I try and do any kind of publish or export (other than "Export using Quicktime") it will say "preparing" then will immediately go to a dialog that says:
    Unable to prepare the project for publishing. The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (Error code = -50)
    I have no idea what next.

    Hi,
    Check ur source system connection. by going to RSA1-> Source System-> right click and then select check.
    U will get the info about the source system Connection. IF RFC has failed then better be in touch with ur basis.
    Or try restoring ur source system connection by
    Source system-> Restore.
    Its sets all the default conenctions b/n ur systems.
    Once again check the connection now. if it says ok.. then try do the export data source and then assign the data source to info source and then maintain the Update rules..

  • I'mtrying to upload my photos to shutterfly I've gone to file and export then the window gives me the option of file export webpage quicktime and slideshow .  on my macmini I have shutterfly on there also how do I get this on my new mac

    I go to file and export then a window appears with file export, webpage,quicktime and slideshow.  On my mini I have shutterfly as an option and don't remember how to do it.  What do I do to input this info so that shutterfly becomes an option

    Hi Barbara
    Are your photos in iPhoto or are you using some other Photo Software?
    The latest version of iPhoto is a lot different than iPhoto 6 for example. In iPhoto 06 you could burn the Originals from your User Picture Folder using Finder, while in iPhoto 11 it is best to burn them from within the iPhoto Application.
    Open iPhoto and select the Event(s) that you want to burn onto the CD, then select Share on the menu bar and click Burn in the drop down.

    Then again, maybe you got a bad batch of blank CD's and need to try another?

  • I can't export to QuickTime, it gives message "Codec not found."

    I have long sequence, in which I have some Channel Swap effects.  I get an error message saying it can't be rendered for a sequence this long (72 minutes) with my hardware (2009 iMac running OS 10.6.8).  When I try to export to QuickTime, it tells me "Codec not found." I'm trying to export to Apple Pro Res HQ.  What should I do?  I took out the Channel Swap effects and didn't get the message anymore in the sequence, but I'm afraid the codec issue will crop up again, even though I changed it to Apple Pro Res in the Render Options tab under Sequence settings, rather than just "Same as Sequence".  Eventually, I will have to export to HQ, and I'm not sure this codec lets me do that.  Help!

    You don't give any details about your format or sequence settings, so I'll be general here.
    Just a couple of observations...
    The only time limitation messages I've seen (in the last decade) have been resource-oriented, not NLE constraints so if your system doesn't like a 72-minute sequence I'd be looking at drive space or something like that. Have you tried outputting two 36-minute pieces?
    I don't understand your logic in using the sequence codec option (which is limited to two specific formats) to control output of the sequence rather than the output "same as sequence" dropdown) options. Personally, I don't use either, I output the sequence as is and transcode in Compressor.
    Simple as it sounds, "Codec not found" generally means exactly that, so I'd be looking at whether the codecs need to be re-installed.
    Hope this helps

  • Export in QuickTime with "Only Hyperlink"

    Hallo! I've a problem! When export in QuickTime from KeyNote, setting "Only hyperlink", the keys with the
    action back do not only work while next it works. This happens even if inserts the numeration of the page. Can you help me??!!! Thank you very much!

    OK, I may have found the source of the problem: when i tried to play the movie file that I had inserted in Keynote on my PC, Quicktime asked for a codec. In Movie Inspector, I saw that the video was encoded in FLV1...
    Any idea where I can get this codec for QT WIndows (I'm searching for it and haven't found it yet)

  • File type for export as quicktime movie

    I thought I read here that "Export as Quicktime Movie" produces a .mov file (although without the extension). I'm using Brightcove to host our videos, and their publishpod says it accepts .mov files, but doesn't seem to work with the file from FCE. Is it really a .mov? Or do I need to export using Quicktime Conversion (and burn up lots more time in the process?)

    Thanks...
    I did search the forum and nothing addressed my specific issue. Sorry if I didn't phrase my question clearly.
    Anyway, I suspect the problem is that the Brightcove software does not work well with the Apple Intermediate Codec. I had no problem with a .mov exported with H.264 compression. This adds extra time to my workflow, but I suspect it will be a necessary evil.
