IMovie 08 v 7.1.1 - Can't export - Error -108 - Help Please!

Please can anyone help?
I'm a new Mac user and have just imported and edited my first iMovie. I tried to export it (assuming I could then burn it to a DVD?) but never got that far.
I'm attempting to export it as a 'large movie' to Finder.
I get an error telling me it has been 'unable to prepare the movie for publishing due to an error (error code -108)'
Please has anyone got any ideas if I'm doing something wrong?
Thanks!

Looking up error -108, I got a lot of hits on goggle about memory errors returning error -108.
On this hunch, I simply rebooted my Mac Pro.
I opened iMovie 7.1.1, and exported the same file, no problem.
So it must be a memory leak or some sort of memory related issue. (I have 4 gigs of ram in my machine.

Already gone through troubleshooting guide a zillion times. Thanks.

This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.

Thanks Barney, I tried that but all that comes up in Spotlight are the log files that show the file paths! I don't know how Steam works. Are all the files held by Steam on their server perhaps?

I just purchased Time Capsule today. I ONLY want to use it as an external drive. I do not need it for Time Machine. I can see the TC in my finder, but when I click on a file or video to drag and drop, I get message that TC can't be modified. Help please

I just purchased Time Capsule today. I ONLY want to use it as an external drive. I do not need it for Time Machine. I need to free up room on my computer. As of now, I can't even load updates. I can see the TC in my finder, but when I click on a file or video to drag and drop, I get message that TC can't be modified. Help please!

I agree with Kappy.. passing files and especially via wireless is slow as slow.
Just need to be sure your TC is the new AC model??
And the OS on the computer is Lion?
Have you completed the setup of the TC via the utility? You do still need to get internet via the TC so it has to be plugged into the main router..
Give us the full picture of the network.
Then we can help you get into it.. whether you should put your files on it is another question.

There is nothing that anyone here on a user forum can do to help you. If it is a local issue in Syria, then you need to take it up with your phone company or authorities there who have prevented you from using VPN.
Nobody here can help you.

I am legally blonde and not very tech savvy, so I don't really know how to do that. I know ur time is valuable, so could u possibly give me a short tutorial? I would b very grateful! I use the camera kit to get my pics from my sd card to my iPad and also from my iPhone to my iPad. Had I known I would have this problem, I would not have transferred my pics to my iPad until after I took the sd card and had my pics printed.

I recorded 1 hour and 6 minutes of footage on my Kodak Zi8 Camera in WVGA mode. When I connect it to my Macbook Pro, the .MOV file that it creates is only 59 mintues. I can still view the full footage on the camera itself. I just can't export it. HELP!!!!

So it is cutting off the end at 59 minutes? How large is the file that is being exported? You may be running up against a file size limitation.

Let's get some more info:
What device are you using?
What OS & version?
Browser & version?
So you DO see the teeny " " link to the right & when "Selected" it does NOT show this?
What, if anything DOES happen? Do you have any other email addresses entered? Alternate? Rescue?

At the end of my IMovie I want to write some text: as in" Happy Birthday Mandy we had a great time with you. etc.. How do I go about this? Which icon in IMovie lets me have a place to write text?? help please

Please see my ? above: Im making an IMovie and need the last frame to just be text (can be on a color). I don't know how to go about doing this. Ive already done all my photos and captions. Need to have it ready for TOMORROW: Friday May 23rd. Help please!

You can choose a background for the text from Maps and Backgrounds. Just drag a background to the end of the timeline, adjust to desired duration then drag title above it.

Can't open my project, help please...

I've spent hours and hours on my wedding video project... When I was working on it, iMove suddenly crashed and then I can't open the project any more...
I can't open, edit, duplicate and export the project. It allows me to play it in full screen but the content is incomplete.
My other two projects are fine.
I tried to reinstall iMovie (delete the program and com.apple.pkg.iMovieXXXX files, and reinstall and update) but it didn't help...
I tried to repair the disk permissions but it didn't help...
Could anyone please save me and my project..
I was using Lion and iMovie 11 with the latest updates. My labtop is MBP 15'' mid-2010.
Thanks!

Anyone could help me please ???

IMovie 08 Share-iDVD error -108 *Help Quick!!

I am really in a pickle! I spent upwards of 48 hours creating a slideshow of still pictures in iMovie for my wedding in 2 weeks. This is my first time using either iMovie or iDVD. I had no luck getting iDVD to customize the slideshow as I wanted it to look, so a friend suggested iMovie. My project is now finished and I am attempting to burn it to a DVD for my DJs to play. When I do Share> iDVD, it processes the project for about 2 minutes then says it was "unable to prepare the project due to an error (-108)."
Can anyone help PLEASE!!
THANKS!

Hi
a. Isn't it so that You in Share select Media Browser. Then in iDVD import from here.
b. iMovie'08 & 09 are not the optimal tools for DVD making. Due to that they discard every second line
in interlaced video to DVD resulting in less sharp picture.
I use
• iMovie HD6, FotoMagico™, FinalCut Express or FinalCut Pro - to get best possibly result.

Try:
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
