False Compressor error msg: reconnect render files

This issue has cropped up recently. During compression, the "reconnect media" dialog pops up, saying that one, two, or as many as thirty render files are missing. When I click "reconnect," a message says that there are no such files and the render continues normally.
This happens three times, for each file (2 audio, 1 MPEG).
This has not happened before. It means I can't Compress overnight because these false errors halt the process. Babysitting required!
Is is there any fix, any way to stop this?
Thanks,
Dave

I'm compressing MPEG-2 files. It generally has not been a problem until this recent project, which is a collection of sequences from other projects. The compressor is probably looking for leftover files that don't exist.
Perhaps I could solve the problem by re-setting the scratch render disk and re-rendering. That would take some time, but it might be worth a try when I get a moment. Or, I could simply clean out the render folder and re-render.
What do you think?

We both got new computers, upgrading from CS5.5, deactivated the previous version and deleted the file from the old macs.

As long as the report ends up with 'Permissions repair complete' then, as far as permissions go, you are fine. You can ignore the various statements in the report:
Permissions you can ignore on 10.5 onwards:

Using 'should be -rw-r--r-- , they are lrw-r--r--' as an example, you will see the that the permissions are not changed, but the | indicates a different location. This is because an update to Leopard onwards changed the location of a number of system components.

Having trouble reconnecting render files

Hi-
I recently had to move a project from one hard drive to another, and although all the files are relatively in the same hierarchy (only the drive itself has changed) when I load the project in it shows almost the entire timeline needing rendering, both audio and video. When they were on the original drive, the entire project was rendered and it was completely done. Now when I look in my audio render folder and it seems that the render files are all split up in three separate project files... as time went on I would "save as" in order to have permanent backups, so maybe FCP is "confused" as to which of those subfolders each audio render file is in. The video render folder is similar, spread out in two different subfolders. So it looks like my render files are split among two folders in video render, and three folders in audio render. FCP never had any trouble with this arrangement before, keeping track fine.
When I select "reconnect" from the menu, "render files" is ghosted... it won't even let me select it. Am I really going to have to re-render everything to get my project back just because the files were moved to another drive?
Or could I try putting all the render files in one drive (move them up a level and out of the subdividing folders). Would that help FCP "find" them to reconnect with them? I'd backup the entire render file folders first in case it didn't work.
Thanks!
Leslie Bell

I'd not change project file names mid stream... it's really best to backup OFF the computer too. A USB flash drive works really well for this... When you change project names, and capture or render, the files get put into new folders named the same as the new project file's name... sort of messy.
You can put a flash drive in a USB port, and each day, just drag your project file to it, replacing the old... that way no matter what happens to your computer, the project file will not be affected.

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

Reconnecting render files

each time i have a crash or a hangup and go into the auto-save vault for the last saved project files (i backup every 7 minutes), the media files connect but all the renders must be done from scratch. this can take up to an hour depending on the project. Nothing has changed in my settings. Why won't the render files reconnect? I am on fcp7. i don't remember this happening in the past before i upgraded to osx 10.8.3. is there a fix? when i right click on reconnect media, the render files tab is always grayed out. thanks.

good question. each time i scrub the timeline with an effect using FxFactory (unrendered), I crash. Trashed preferences, uninstalled and reinstalled FxFactory. Not sure what the issue is. Have 11TB free on my capture scratch. HD has enough space, 16 gb of memory, project settings are correct, etc. etc. Its a mystery and it happens at least 5-6 times a day. it is a real issue. i try to render all my effect immediately, but i still run into trouble.

CS3 Error Msg: Missing PDFMaker Files...

Hi,
I installed CS3 and when I tried to use Acrobat Pro I got the following error message:
" Missing PDFMaker Files. Do you want to run in the repair mode?"
If I say "yes" nothing happens. If I say "no" nothing happens. What can I do to use my software?
Thanks in advance for any ideas!
Kathy

As Bill stated, you can print to PDF using the Adobe PDF printer. No "interactive" features with this. Just page content painted to the PDF.
Or, with Office 2010, try the Save As PDF capability.
If you desire the use of PDFMaker you most change to Acrobat X. Update it to 3.1.0.
Acrobat X (3.1.0) PDFMaker supports Office 2010 64-bit.
See: See: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/333/333504.html
n.b,. Don't know, but, there may be possible issues with Acrobat X integration (if any) with the other applications of CS3.
You'd want to ask about this in the CS forums.
Be well...

FCPX DVD export to Compressor: error burning disc; video file incompatible for DVD creation

I've been working on a project for months now (feature film) in Final Cut Pro X. Therefor I have done about 20 exports already from within FCPX to Compressor for DVD. Did the same process last night as always.
From within project timeline I go to SHARE -> DVD -> setup a basic menu then select USING COMPRESSOR
Compressor opens. I click submit and after the progress indicator fills up way too fast, I get this error:
"there was an error burning your disc the video file is incompatible for DVD creation"
DVD spits out and that's it. Compressor and FCPX are both still running and haven't crashed but I'm confused. I have burned since the recent 10.0.3 upgrades (and whichever upgrade just came out for Compressor as well) so I can't imagine it's the upgrade.
Any ideas?
I tried making a duplicate of the project and renaming and exporting and had the same results.
At this moment I am trying to export to DVD directly from FCPX with default settings and it has bee "processing" with no movemtn on the progress bar for an hour (it's a 2 hour video so this may not be abnormal).

Error Msg importing jpg file

I imported a jpg and am getting an error: "Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo ... you will not be able to make adjustments to the photo" in Library (there's an exclamation mark in upper right). The image is totally blank (i.e., it's gray). The same file was imported OK into Photoshop Elements, renders OK in Explorer and Picasa. Does anyone have a clue what the problem may be. I am able to import other photos OK. Note that this photo is not mine, but was sent to me, so maybe it's damaged some way???
Thanks for any advice.

I've gotten around several errors like this by stopping lightroom and restarting it.

Missing Render files, won't play, General Error message

I have Final Cut Pro 5.0.4 on my Mac 1.8 Ghz Power PC G5, using Mac OS 10.4.10.
I just opened a Final Cut Pro project and got a message that several render files were offline. No idea how that happened, and I couldn't find them to reconnect. Now, when I try to play the video, it stops and a "General Error" message comes up.
I tried re-rendering the whole thing,and reconnected all my media files, but it still won't play. Any ideas on how to save my project?

There are just too many possibilities for us to start guessing. Try searching for GENERAL ERROR and MISSING RENDER FILES, both topics get posted often so you'll find several suggestions and possible causes. However, not many people bother to close their threads around here so there's no way to know if any of the information we passed on was of any help.
FCP 4 and 5 had the odd super-power to make files disappear as if they had never existed. General Error often indicates a corrupt project file so try to open one of your AutoSaves.

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...

Error msg: Insufficient memory to compress SWF

When I publish SWF, export to HTML being the only checkbox checked, I get an error message: Your computer does not have sufficient memory resources to compress the SWF file. I am using Captivate V 4 (trial) on a fairly new PC, with 3.25 GB of RAM. The SWF cmpletes after I OK the error msg. SWF file is only 12,295 KB, and it seems to run fine. What could be causing this message? I don't really know if the final SWF is compressed or not.

Data I/O Corp.l

Did you get a result? I am in the same boat. I have licensed 3, but witht he Capitate 4 trial I needed a way to export to PDF or get the content into a forum suitable to post (like a video) and my session is 18 minutes long - full motion capture (I know, I know). So my PDF is 123 meg. but I get the same crap out message. And I really do think it should come in at a much smaller size (Captivate 3 returns about 45 meg of similar quality for about 12 minutes). And I have 4 gig on my Dell (3.6 Gig addressable).

Render files going offline

Hi Everybody,
I am using Final Cut Pro 7 and each time I open the project Render Files show as offline and no matter how much I try I cannot reconnect them, cannot find them.
I have the main folder for the project and I am the only editor using this computer yet it happens every time. I read couple of discussions but nothing helped I still have to render every day I open the project.
I am working on two projects at the same time, but each projects has its own folder and I reset the scratch disk. Even when I work on the same project for a week it happens the same.
If you have any tips please let me know.
Thanks a lot,
Blerta

First, it's always been impossible in my experience to reconnect render files. Just the way it is.
People report offline render files every once in a while here so you might do some searching to see if there's a solution.
Make sure the drive with the renders is on the desktop BEFORE you launch fcp and the project. Are all your drives formatted macosextended? Do you have a minimum of 10% free space on all drives (and 20% on your startup drive)? You might try launching a recent autosave of the project to see if that makes any difference. Are any of your drives connected via a network? Probably not a good idea. Try and render to a local drive.
Have you tried deleting your fcp preferences?
