Studder and Freeze when sending to DV-tape

Powerbook G4, running OS 10.3.9
I am a regular long-hours user of iMovie, and after working on a project for months, I can not save it to tape. Cameras stutter, and freeze when trying to "share" to videocamera.
I have tried Canon ZR400, and my new Sony, same result, though sometimes my Canon ZR85 goes for a minute or 2 before it starts to studder.
I upgraded to the latest version of Quicktime yesterday, and it appears to be worse.

Hello Thomas;

  • N73 freezes when sending a message

    Hi , my Nokia N73 Phone freezes when sending a message. Other unctions are working fine.
    The phone software is updated with latest version.
    Need help guys!!!
    Cheers
    Sachin

    update you stuff and try code number two, you will lose all phone data but it might help your issue
    *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data)
    Make sure you back up your data as you will lose all of it when you perform option 2 or 3 on this list.
    *#7370# - Reformat your phone
    This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working. Turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
    re-flash - hold the following buttons *, 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen.
    If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service.
    You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....

    email not showing attachment and signature when send out to anyone ?

    This is what I did:
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode
    A small guide on how to put your iPod touch / iPhone  into DFU mode. Works with all G’s of iPod touch / iPhone
    What is DFU: Device Firmware Upgrade
    Step 1: Turn off your iPod touch / iPhone completely and connect to PC / mac
    Step 2: Hold down the Power button for 3 seconds
    Step 3: Without releasing the power button, also hold the Home button for 10 seconds
    Step 4: Without releasing the home button, release the power button and keep holding the Home button  for 20 seconds.
    Itunes will identify that you are in DFU mode.
    That's when I got the black screen with USB and iTunes icons.  iTunes itself, did not show my phone.

  • Mail stalls and freezes when using "Send Mail" from Filemaker.  HELP!!!!

    When I run Send Mail from Filemaker, there seems to be a limit to the number of email addresses Mac Mail can accept for broadcasting the same email to many people. It seems to stall and freeze at around 100 email addresses. Is there a fix for this or a setting that I have overlooked? I need to be able to broadcast mail to hundreds of recipients. Help????

    Hi,
    This is likely not an issue with FileMaker but with your email provider that prevents you from 'spamming'. You'd need to send your emails in 'batches'. SMTPit might help here.

  • Premiere freezes when sending to Media Encoder Queue

    Hey guys,
    This issue is on all of our computers (Mac Pros and 27" iMacs) and happens on 40% of attempted exports through Media Encoder.
    Here's our new workflow:
    - Export TImeline (Command + M)
    - Send to Media Encoder (Queue button)
    - Media Encoder Opens and Premiere gets hung on "Preparing Data for Export" dialogue
    - Force Quit Premiere and get a dialogue that "There has been a serious error and Premiere needs to close"
    - Reopen Premiere and try again – usually get a clean export (or two on a good day) before it craps out again
    We've sort of gotten used to it but I'm wondering – anyone else having this issue? It's getting annoying (and embarrassing when you're in a client session).
    Doesn't matter what timeline setting or what's on the timeline. Also doesn't matter what version of either program.

    I am having the same problem (see Premiere now freezes on Media Encoder Queue)
    I am on 2014.1 of both programs (8.1.0 on premiere, 8.1.0.122 of AME).  I know an update just came out today, but it seems to be just a RAW photo update.
    Mine hangs when premiere is "Preparing Media for Export..."  It launches AME and AME boots up fine... so from where I sit, it looks like a Premiere problem as it's compiling the project file to export.
    Neither "import natively / non natively" or GPU acceleration help.  However, I wouldn't expect them to, given this seems to be a premiere problem, not an AME problem.
    That thread does not apply re: nView.

  • Program freezes when sending to itunes

    I use Garageband to make audiobook files. I'll throw, for example, an audiobook disc's worth of content into a garageband "song" chronologically, then send the track to iTunes. That way, my audiobooks on iTunes will be in a few long tracks rather than in a bunch of tiny tracks. I've been doing it for a long time and Garageband's always done it perfectly. Lately, however, it's been freezing up almost every time I try to send it. During the "creating mixdown" process it'll stop somewhere in the time line and freeze. I basically have to force close when it happens. I've tried numerous techniques to stop it from freezing during the process, sometimes it's worked, but it's been freezing quicker and more frequently as of late. My software is up to date, and my Mac hasn't been having any other problems at all.
    Anyone got any suggestions?

    Hello there, KMB1.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some great steps for isolating your issue running iTunes in Safe Mode:
    iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3430
    There are several ways in which an add-on can cause iTunes to act erratically, such as those listed below:
    - Loss of iTunes functionality, such as the Visualizer.
    - Distortion or irregularity in the iTunes interface.
    - Slow performance.
    - iTunes won't open or quits unexpectedly.
    - You see an alert while syncing stating "... cannot be synced. A duplicate file name was specified."
    If you notice any of the above symptoms or other unusual behavior, you can disable any plug-ins not manufactured by Apple by opening iTunes in Safe Mode. This is done by holding down the Option and Command keys (on Mac OS X) or holding down the Shift and Control keys (on Windows) while opening iTunes. If performed correctly, you should see the following dialog before iTunes finishes starting up:
    "iTunes is running in Safe Mode. Visual plug-ins you have installed have been temporarily disabled."
    If the above does not resolve your issue, try to isolate further by testing in another user account:
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4053
    Symptoms
    When isolating issues and/or troubleshooting software issues in OS X, you might want to use a different user account. Learn how to use this technique to narrow down the cause of an issue.
    Resolution
    The issue at hand may simply be caused by a bad preference setting or user-specific data file. With proper isolation, you can avoid time-consuming and inappropriate troubleshooting methods.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Mail Freezes when sending forward or reply

    Hi there,
    Starting two days ago Mail.app has been freezing when I am trying to send a reply to a, or a forwarded, email. I have searched this discussion group and found a thread at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3272941&#3272941 , but I don't think that it applies to me because:
    A. I'm working with a POP account, not a .Mac account.
    B. If I'm reading the Hawkwings and Macgeekery stories cited in the thread correctly, they're talking about freezes when hitting the "forward" or "reply" buttons. My Mail.app freezes when I tell it to send the message.
    C. Does not come out of beach ball mode. Must have to force quit to cure.
    However I did take care to check my keychain to make sure that it wasn't checking .Mac and or for any certificates. It isn't. Also made sure that my preferred network connection was listed first. I also rebuilt my mailbox. What's really puzzling is that I can send new messages at will with no hassle.
    Any Suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Malcolm.
    The fact that in your case Mail doesn’t freeze until hitting Send indicates that your problem is different, indeed.
    Anyway, in addition to ensuring that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list in System Preferences > Network > Show: Network Port Configurations, try turning OFF all the port configurations except the one needed to connect to Internet and see whether that helps — if it doesn’t, turn ON again the ones you want enabled.
    Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    Do you have any Mail plug-ins or system utilities that could interfere with Mail? In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
    /Library/StartupItems/
    /Library/InputManagers/
    ~/Library/InputManagers/
    /Library/Mail/Bundles/
    ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.
    <hr>
    Try to obtain additional information as follows:
    1. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
    2. From the File menu, choose either Open Console Log, or Open System Log, or both, so that Console displays the contents of both system.log and console.log.
    3. Reproduce the problem and look at the bottom of the Console windows for messages that might be written there as a result. If any, they may provide some clues.
    <hr>
    Try this to check whether the problem is system-wide:
    1. Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts and create a new user account for testing purposes.
    2. Either log out of your main user account or just quit Mail so that it does not interfere with the other user account.
    3. Log in as the newly created user and set up Mail anew there.
    4. For spam-related security reasons, go to Preferences > Viewing and disable Display remote images in HTML messages if it’s enabled.
    5. If you set up a POP account, go to Preferences > Accounts > Advanced and disable Remove copy from server after retrieving a message if it’s enabled, to avoid messages being accidentally removed from the server while testing.
    6. Check whether the problem also happens when logged in as another user.

  • Mail freezes when sending a message

    Mail freezes for a few seconds when sending a message after upgrade to Mac OS X 10.9. I have a MacBook Pro Retina i5 8GB 256 SSD and this problem occur after install new MacOS.

  • Voice recognition software, spinning the blue circle and freezing when replying to email.

    Due to an injury my right hand has limited use. 
    I started using voice recognition software from Microsoft.  The software works reasonably well, but I found that when I use it in outlook mail that there are some problems.  In particular when I reply to an email I get a spinning blue circle. 
    It is normally only when I am replying that I get this.  It is also possible that it happens when the mail is in the HTML format.  I've switched my mail to text format but when I receive one that is an HTML been the email respects the sender's format
    of the email.
    The spinning blue circle that occurs when im replying to an email basically freezes my mail if I go to another screen or window then it seems to calm down but when I go back the blue circle spins again.  When I look at the performance monitor I can
    see that the outlook turns red, and the status turns from running to not responding .
    Has anyone seen as an perhaps more importantly is there any resolution to it, im using Outlook 2003.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    So Outlook freezes when you reply an email using HTML format, or receive an email in HTML format, right?
    I suspect this issue is less related with Voice recognition software but more related with outlook itself or some anti-virus, software installed recently. I recommend you test this issue without Voice recognition software if possible to check wiether this
    software is the culprit.
    Some 3 rd party anti-virus software may have a Email scanner function which mainly for some protection of IE or block some website URLs, so you can temporarily turn off these anti-virus, test this issue again.
    Or you can test this issue by launch Outlook in outlook.exe /safe
    Another situation is that Outlook checks the restricted zones list for IExplorer looking for blocked URLs in the email, whick may cause the hangs, so clear the restricted site in IE as a test.

  • I updated to ios 5 and now when sending an email it says no subject, do you still want to send ? Can this be turned off ?

    I updated my iphone 4 to ios 5. When sending emails now it says " there is no subject, do you want to still send ? " Is there a way to turn that off. I could not find the setting. In ios 4 this problem never happened .  Anyone have an answer ?

    There is no way to consolidate iTunes accounts.
    Setting up an iPhone has never required creation of a new Apple ID.
    You've apparently purchased content with both Apple ID's.  Sign into the device with the correct Apple ID and sync the content.

  • HELP!! iPod Classic won't show up in iTunes, and FREEZES when I try

    Last night, I hooked my iPod Classic to my computer to sync it. It didn't show up in iTunes, and instead, it froze, quite suddenly. I had to wait until the battery ran down, then charge it up again(luckily, all my music and video were still present). Today, I tried once again to hook it up. This time, the "Connected/Eject before disconnecting" screen appeared, so I figured it was working(that didnn't happen last night, it just froze immediatly). Unfortunately, I was wrong. It still hasn't shown up in iTunes, and now, it's frozen again!
    WHAT is going on?

    Ummm....ok, thanks for answering the completely irrelevant question that someone else asked, but how about dealing with the actual topic of this thread?!
    Seriously, why did my iPod Classic freeze when I tried to hook it up??? It happened twice. It seems to be working now, but still, I'm concerned.

  • Screen turns white and freezes when I click on a link

    also freezes when I click on the screen or try to use the right slide bar. Also getting firefox is not responding.

    First, make sure that Firefox is set as the default browser. Ref: [[How to make web links open in Firefox by default]] and [[Setting Firefox as the default browser does not work]]. If links in Outlook Express that should open Firefox freeze the entire computer, you could try temporarily setting Internet Explorer (or another browser) as the default (see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Default_browser#Using_Set_Program_Access_and_Defaults for one way to do that).
    If clicking links in Outlook Express still freezes the computer, you should seek help in a Windows XP forum or an Outlook Express forum ... for example, I found these with a google search:

  • White screen and freeze when trying to restart after downloading Mountain Lion 8.2 upgrade. Mac will not shutdown or restart without freezing on whitescreen.

    Downloaded Mountain Lion update 10.8.2 last night. All went well until the message after the download – restart your mac to install this update. The screen went white and the machine didn’t restart. After waiting for quite a while, I shutdown using the main power button. Restarted iMac later and it opened in 10.8.1 and the iTunes icon informed me that I had an upgrade to 10.8.2 that required me to restart the machine to install the upgrade. I did this and again, the screen went white and froze when trying to restart. Rebooted thinking I might be OK to run in 10.8.1 and ignoring the update but when I tried this the Mac worked fine but when I came to shut down I got the white screen freeze thing again. Does anyone have any easy-to-follow solutions for this or will I have to shut down using the main power button every day?
    Many thanks for any suggestions.

    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partitirion & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.
