General Error message when rendering after opening FCP4 project in FCP5
Hi,
we're are having trouble with our FCP 4.5 project after opeining it in FCP5. When trying to render it comes up with "General Error" message and won't render the sequence. It also sometimes simply stops rendering without the message. Can anyone help? thanks
Update the version of FCP you're attempting to use as far as it will go for starters. There's no bug I know of that would cause this, so it's more likely an edgy media file getting in the way.
Try rendering just a section at a time and see if you can narrow down the files that may be causing your error.

'General Error' message when rendering purchased footage
Hi folks,
I just received some royalty-free footage in the mail which I ordered awhile back.
I'm finding that some of the clips import and render fine, while others import fine but give a 'General Error' message when I try to render. In essence, I'm able to use only some of the clips.
I actually have footage from TWO DIFFERENT companies, so I'm thinking the problem is not with the footage but with Final Cut Express's ability to render the files. Has anybody else gotten this 'General Error' message when trying to render royalty-free, purchased footage?
Any suggestions as to what the problem might be and how to fix it?
Thanks very much!
VicHmm....if they're HD, try using MPEG Streamclip (free) and see if you can open them, and convert to Quicktime (command-E in Streamclip) using the Apple Intermediate Codec for your codec. What frame size are they? 1280x720? 1920x1080? Hopefully they are one of those standard sizes.
Once you have a converted file (which by the way will be much larger than your downloaded purchased files), then you can import them into FCE, but before doing so, make sure you go to Easy Setup and select the preset that matches the footage (for example, if it's 1920x1080 and 30fps, then in Easy Setup select the HD popup then under "Use" select the Apple Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i60 preset.) Then create a new empty sequence, then import your files. -

Help ....Error message when trying to open itunes 11 after installing..cant solve it !!!
Keep getting an error message when trying to open iTunes 11 after installing...running Windows ...have tried most fixes ...message says ...iTunes.exe - Bad Image ...iTunes c:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Apple Apple Application Support\CoreADI.dll is not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error .....
Also when iTunes first opesn after installing ....the message come up that says "A required iTunes component is not installed .please repair or reinstalll iTunes (-45075)"
Have repaired , reinstalled , created and used a restore point etc etc
How do I fix this !!! Please...iTunes.exe - Bad Image ...iTunes c:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Apple Apple Application Support\CoreADI.dll is not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error .....
Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7,now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP,head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

I receive the follwing error message when trying to open my ipod touch/itunes "the itunes libary.itlfile is lockedon a lockdisk or you do not have write permission on this file. How do I resolve this problem?
Repair iTunes Security Permissions
Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Securitytab and click Advanced. Use the Change Permissions... button grant to your account (or the Users group) and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to Replace permissions entries... which will repair permissions throughout the library. When complete switch to the General tab, click in the Read-only check box to clear it, then click Apply.
If you don't have the option to change the permissions then use the Owner tab and Edit... button to take ownership from an account with administrator privileges. Tick the option to Replace owner on subcontainers and objects.
Repeat with the media folder if it isn't stored inside the main iTunes folder.
If you've brought over the library from another computer you may also want to remove any "mystery" identities (S<string of dashes & digts>) that have come over from the old computer...
The images above are from Windows 7. Hopefully the system isn't too different in Windows 8.

Error message when trying to open windows7 via vmwarefusion.
error message when trying to open windows7 via vmwarefusion.;
Unable to open file "/Users/geraldw/Documents/Virtual Machines.localized/Windows 7.vmwarevm/Windows 7-000016.vmdk": The system cannot find the file specified.
I've completely uninstalled vmaware fusion. and would like to install a new copy of windows7 plus my vmware fusion3.0 that I have on a disk. I wonder if windows7 is still buried in my mac hard drive somewhere? I can see some windows files on my mac but they appear a gray and can not be accessed. Could there be a problem installing a new copy of windows through boot camp? It seems to do so wouldn't be a clean install as I suspect that windows 7 is still on the drive somewhere. I've tried to follow the path the file I listed above, but nothing comes up. I'm almost certain it was accidentally deleted completely from the hard drive as it was quarantined while using Clam X anti-virus. I'm a relatively new mac user and long time PC user, but a computer genius I am not. I don't want to have to reformat the whole mac machine and lose my current files, etc.
I've uninstalled vmare completely and reinstalled, it, but the problem persists.
Any help?You will probably get a better response asking this question in VMWare's forums for Fusion.
Best of luck. -

Acrobat 9.0 error message when trying to open
Just got this error message when trying to open Acrobat Pro 9.0:
Has been installed for 6 month, use 4-5 times per week, never had an issue until this. Usually I would do an 'Uninstall' 'Reinstall' before coming to the forum, but it will not allow me to do a 'deactivitation'.Any help at all, thanks.
System Info:Good day,
You can initiate a Repair installation from Control Panel > Programs by clicking on the Acrobat 9 installation, choosing 'Change' then following the prompts for a repair install.
I missed the part where you mentioned the error was occurring on launch. Sorry about that.
Kind regards,
