MASSIVE freeze-up and will not export to soundtrack issues

Seems I have started having a couple of new issues with FCP
1. While playing back a work in progress the computer will freeze up and requires a hard boot. This has just started and seems to come at the absolute worse moments....usually when I forget to SAVE
2. I can no longer export my tracks to soundtrack pro. I get an error message that says it has failed.
reinstall?
Any clues?

Well, the first and easiest thing to try is trashing your prefs. FCP Rescue can help with that:

  • T-Bird FREEZES sporadically and will not allow "Delete" to work.

    Approx. 4 days ago, something happened to T-Bird. I can only assume (I hate that word) that a newer version was uploaded to my computer. I lost over 1800 email addresses. BIG TIME BUMMER!!!
    I was able to recover most, but had to input manually, another BUMMER!
    Now, every so often, (three to five email deletes) I have to kill the program and restart it due to it freezing and will not allow me to delete or move on to the next email. Smaller bummer.
    Any ideas?

    What is your anti-virus software?

  • ITunes U class page freezes up and will not load

    Last week I got into my iTunesU class page and downloaded without a problem. This week the class page will not load and my computer says iTunes is not responding.  I deleted iTunes and reinstalled, but it didn't fix the problem.

    Try the basic 5Rs from Apple Support website.

  • My 5-year old iMac is freezing up and will not reboot unless it is turned off for an hour or so.  What is going on?

    After some heavy lifting ( backing up or working in several applications) the system will slow down to a crawl and then freeze.  A hard shutdown and restart will usually not reboot it.  I typically get a white screen with a floder with a ? mark on it, a circle with a line through it, an Apple logo with a spinning wheel for many hours (I let it go overnight once to no avail), or a simple white screen.   The disk checks out fine with Drive Genius and disk usility, from both the hard disk (when I can get it running) and from the Disk utilite and Drive Genius Disks.    I have erased (zeroed out) the disk and reinstalled Snow Leopard several times with all updates.  Reparied permissions successfully.  It runs swimmingly until I start loading up files and try to use them or tao back up to Time Machine on a Time Capsule.   It will then repeat the whole scenario.   Often, If I leave it shut down for an hour or two, or overnight, it will boot fine, even after all of the prior white screens.
    I have taken it to the Genius Bar a coupole of times, and they have done a system reinstall and analysis to no avail.   Everything looks fine.  Infact, ast time it had rested and while it did not boot before I left, it did fine there. 
    The only devices connected are an ethernet cable, bluetooth mouse, and keyboard.  What's up?
    I think this is a hardware not a software issue.

        BankerDad, let's see if we can change this device's behavior. Is there any physical or liquid damage on that device? Connect it to a charger to see if the charging battery icon populates on the screen. Keep us posted.

  • Premiere will not export Uncompressed or DV compressed video files

    Working with CS4 with all current updates...
    I have no issue exporting any other format (that I know of) including flv and wmv and m2v.
    I am using PCs with Windows 7 Pro 64bit on a Desktop with  8GB RAM and Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit on a Laptop with 4GB RAM.   I've had nothing but problems with CS4 since I cleanly installed my  Desktop and purchased my Laptop.  Adobe Premiere will not export DV compressed with video, only audio,  and will not export uncompressed at all!  I have a system  with Vista Pro 64bit at work, and none of these problems are there.
    I have  uninstalled and reinstalled the whole suite (plus removed all  preferences files and went in to the user profile and manually removed  any traces) to no avail.  As I am experiencing this same issue across  two totally different systems, is it a known bug with Windows 7 64bit?   Is there any way to fix the issue?

    Sorry it's taken a bit to get back with you... I've been busy on another system.  My assets are R3D files at 4k resolution under the Red 1080p preset.  I have a Core2Duo with 8GB RAM, 2TB HDD, Running Windows 7 Pro 64bit and CS4 Production Premium.  What other system specifics do you require?
    I do have a Matrox RTX2 card; and did not uninstall and reinstall it when I uninstalled and  reinstalled my CS4 software.
    As for Export:

  • HT1414 I have changed my Iphone once last year. My iphone has being playing up for the best part of 6 months. It Keeps deleting all my music of the phone. it freezes and will not allow me to turn it on or off. if i am in the middle of an app it will rando

    I have changed my Iphone once last year. My iphone has being playing up for the best part of 6 months. It Keeps deleting all my music of the phone. it freezes and will not allow me to turn it on or off. if i am in the middle of an app it will randomly shut it down and turn the phone off totally (even if it is charged.) It will not charge properly, it has to be in a exact position to charge and even then go's off and on. I thought this my be my charger but the charger works fine on another phone. it will not allow texts to come through properly and sometimes will not not let me ring people it just freezes and i have to turn it off and on a couple of times in order for it to work. it will not let me update apps and the silent button is not silent it still go's of on ringer.The keyboard will freeze up not allowing me to type anything.  It wants me to pay £126.44 for it to be repaire when i have nothing to do with why its not working!

    That is correct.
    That is the price of a replacement iphone once your iphone is outside of the warranty period

  • IPhoto 6.06 freezes and will not quit

    iPhoto freezes and will not quit each time I open it. I recently upgraded to 6.06 but the problem remains. My photo library is just over 3GB.
    What should I do?

    Those gray squares with the "!" in the middle indicates that the library has lost the link to the original files. It can be caused by moving or renaming files/folder in the iPhoto Library folder via the Finder or an interruption of some sort while the Library6.iPhoto database file is being written to.
    Since you've tried rebuilding the library without success you'll have to start over with a new library as follows:
    Creating a new library while preserving the rolls from the original.
    Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    Drag the Originals folder from the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    This will create a new library with the same rolls as the original library. However dates on the rolls may be different but can be edited as you would the roll title.
    Once this is completed you can delete the Originals folder from the desktop and the iPhoto Llibrary folder. If desired, you can keep the older library folder to try other fixes on it.
    In the future I recommend you make a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto file after each import and after doing a lot of editing and organizing in the library. Then if you experience a similar crash all you need to do is replace the damaged database file with the backup copy and you'll be back to the same place in the library as when you make the backup. See the tip at the end of my signature.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Firefox often freezes and will not close; also cannot open bookmarks

    After operating normally for a few minutes firefox freezes and will not allow me to open legitimate pop-ups or access another website.
    At the same time my bookmarks folder will not open.

    Which security software (firewall) do you have?
    Did you check the Firefox rules and make sure that is doesn't block Firefox?
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

  • IPhone 4 freezes and will not restart or restore using iTunes.

    iPhone 4 freezes and will not restart and cannot be restored using iTunes (unknown error 1602). My daughter's iPhone 4 did the same thing 10 days ago. Is this a software glitch? I replaced her phone, but I'm ready to switch to Android.

    I am using Sophos Antivirus, but after disabling, still no luck. Tried the other USB port; no luck (same 1602 error). I'll take it to the Apple store tomorrow, but if they recommend replacing the phone I'm switching.
    I went through this ~15 years ago when the Apple OS got so buggy and unstable that I had to abandon PowerBooks and switch to Windows. Oddly enough, this was after Jobs left the first time. I hope history isn't repeating itself.
    Thank you for the suggestions.

  • I am running yosemite and I have the latest version of iphoto.  It will not export movies.  Any ideas?

    I have finished editing my slideshow in iPhoto.  It will not export as a movie file.  Any ideas?

    Usual fix: reinstall the app:
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
    *Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • HELP ..N8..Phone freezes and will not turn off

    Help me !!!!!!!!
    Phone freezes and will not turn off ........ It still calling HELPPPPPPPP......
    What can or should I do.....
    Reply asap..... It's calling about 4 hours now........... I can hear any nokia tunes anymore !!!!
    HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEE
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hmmm, I am not sure if there is another way. Since the battery is not removable for users and the 8 second -3 buzzes press don't work, I don't think there are another way to get it off.
    Try connect the charger to it and do the 8 second press again, if not I think you will have to either let the battery run out untill it turns off it self or take it to a Nokia care point.
    You can check here for care points in your country: http://www.nokia.nl/support/herstellingen/repair-and-recycle-main

  • My iPad screen freezes and will not switch off for at least 5 mins?

    my ipad screen freezes and will not turn off or  function for at lease  5 mins then just closes down

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!
