How do I solve error -50?

Hi guys,
Upon trying to export a project in imovie I always get "Unable to prepare project for publishing. The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (-50)". Upon scrolling through the forums, I've seem several supposed reasons, none of which worked.
- I am using a mac book pro 10.7.3, and imovie '11.
- I have over 600GB of space on my hard drive, no external hard drive I am aware of.
- All video files in my project have been optimised for imovie before I started working with them.
- I use no picture files, but my audio files are in .m4a itunes format.
Any help would be much appreciated!

    Local Mac shop said to hold down "c" after inserting disk to get "disk utility" to come up in order to wipe hard drive.  I can't seem to get it to do this.

    This W7 was purchased for using Fusion, as others did - per reviews from amazon.  The technician today called their contact at VMWare - Fusion not officially for use with Lion - even though I read at the VMWare support site that others have made it work.  Apparently my setup doesn't work. 
    Do you know how to do the proceedure for bringing up the disk utility when starting the disk?
    BTW, some of the windows applications I want to continue using are Incredimail, Calendarscope, Stamps.com and a few others I have used over many years.  What do you use for email and calendar?
    Wow, sounds like another reason to not use MS Windows.
    Regarding your Disk Utility question, please elablorate I'm not sure what you're trying to do. Disk Utilty is just that...a utility, it's something most users never have to use especially on a new computer. Let me know what you're trying to do there before I give you some instructions.
    As for as your Windows apps I would recommend using Mail and iCal, both come as part of OS X and are very robust tools. Don't discount the software built right into OS X it's very robust and powerful not all like the bloatware most Windows boxes ship with. Stamps.com well I'd look for another alternative. It's clear they don't support OS X which makes me a little suspicious that they're so behind the times. 
    Also if you have not been exposed to these links before I'd strongly recommend bookmarking them and using them. They're extermely useful!

  • How can I solve error 1004?

    How can I solve error 1004?

    Did you try this for deleting photos that I posted in your thread ? Photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing.
    For '1004' then there are various 'solutions' mentioned from this post onwards which might work for you : https://discussions.apple.com/message/15652754#15652754 - different things appear to have worked for different people.

  • How can I solve error 3194? My hosts file is clean!

    Hi, I try to restore my iPhone and iPad which both are a jailbroken iOS 5.1.1 to a clean 5.1.1 (and no, I don't want to update to iOS 6).
    Now when I am restoring them with shift+click restore and choose the correct and clean iOS 5.1.1 ipsw it gives me error 3194 after extracting.
    Error 3194 can be solved by cleaning the hosts file in system32,drivers,etc folder BUT my hosts file is clean and I can ping gs.apple.com . Deactivating Firewalls didn't help. I don't think it's a connection problem between my PC and gs.apple.com . Some say you get this if you have a jailbroken device. Well thanks, now I know why I'm getting it, but not how to solve it
    So. How can I restore my phone and get rid of error 3194?
    Even a clean iTunes on a friends PC couldn't restore my iOS devices. My iPod nano restored w/o any problem.
    Thanks

    Reboot and see whether it goes away.

  • How do I solve Error 1004 on Lion reinstall?

    I wanted to erase my hard drive and reinstall the system and the apps I primarily use. I followed the instructions from apple, but after I sign in with my ID and password I get the Error 1004 and "try again later".
    Starting to panic a bit because I don't have a physical copy of Lion to do the install. How do I get around this?  Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Gus

    Exactly same issue here!!
    I'm moving from a 24'' iMac to a 27'' iMac. Yesterday I was able to successfully wipe the HD and fresh install Lion on the old iMac (I'm selling it), but now when I'm trying to do the same with the new iMac I get this 1004 error out of nowhere.
    I've already erased the HD on the new one so I don't really know what to do. I've tried signing in with my current iTunes ID on another Mac computer and on my iPhone and it works seamlessly. I only get the 1004 error with the Lion installation on the iMac.
    Please help

  • TS3694 how do i solve error with code 1015

    please help me to solve an unknown error code 1015

    1. Close iTunes.
    2. Connect your iPhone to your computer and then launch iTunes.
    3. Turn your iPhone off (hold down the power button at the top of the iPhone).
    4. Then, hold down the sleep/wake button and home button together for EXACTLY 10 SECONDS, then release the sleep/wake button.
    5. Continue to hold down the Home button until a message appears in iTunes telling you an iPhone in recover mode has been detected. When you are in DFU mode your iPhone screen will be completely black. Remember that if you see the restore logo, iTunes logo, or any message on the iPhone screen, you are not in DFU mode but standard Recovery Mode.
    6. Hit the OK message that should popup to restore your phone. Restore as "New".
