Troubles Saving projects w/ FMV

I am working on a POS training project. Because of this, the
PC is very restricted (no start menu, no explorer, no run window,
etc...). We have been able to install Captivate 2, and things have
been working well. I can record demonstrations and save them. I
then take the saved files to another machine to edit and finalize.
Projects with stills work with no troubles. I have some
pieces that require recording with full motion video. They record
fine. I am unable to save the project. I recieve an error saying
the files are locked by another program or user. This only happens
with projects with recorded full motion video. I assume this is a
permission problem, with the movie files created. I would assume
there are two ways to solve this. 1.) Find the temp files, and edit
their permissions. 2.) Run captivate as Admin.
Obviously solution 2, sounds like the better choice. However,
with the restrictions on the PC, this is difficult. I can get to a
DOS prompt from a protected part of the POS, which is how I have
installed and launch captivate. Is there a way to "run as" from
command line? If not, am I able to change ownership/permissions
from the command line? If so, where would I find these temporary
files?
Thanks for your help!

Hi ChrisBlackburn
In Captivate 2, if you click Options > Recording
Options... > Full Motion Recording tab, you will see where the
temp files are normally placed. You may want to try changing this
area and see if your results improve.
Cheers... Rick

Having Troubling Saving Projects

Once I complete work on a project and attempt to save the video, the program seems to fail on me. About halway through the rendering process an error comes up saying "software exception 0xc000000d occured in the application at location 0x78138aa0"
I have tried many different times only to recieve the same results and have searched the forums and customer support to only come up empty handed. Anyone have any information on why this is happening and how to fix it?

How much free space is on your hard drive? Is at least 15% of of your drive free -- and have you recently cleaned and defragged it?

AE CC - saving projects takes much longer than in CS6

I've noticed that After Effects CC takes much longer to save my current project than previously (about 2-3 minutes). I'm used to saving quite often so this is slowing down my workflow.
The project was imported from AE CS6. I've tried starting a new project and importing the previous one manually (instead of a conversion). Same lag.
All unused footage has been taken out and the footage has been consolidated.
The AE CS6 project file and AE CC file are about 15mb so CC is not any bigger.
There are about 50 files in Arri Raw 3K, the rest is in DPX and ProRes 1080p.
I'm working from a Macbook Pro Retina 16GB Ram and all media and cache are on an external Lacie Big Disk thunderbolt Raid SSD.
My impression is that AE CC is indexing all the files before saving so it's going through all the RAW sequenced files. This could slow down the saving process quite a lot.
Is anyone experiencing the same lag time while saving projects?

I'm having the same issue on my PC, saving is taking much longer and is also happening every time I RAM preview. Very strange, and in fact now its having trouble accessing the save location, a local hard drive. any answers for this isse?

Prel 13 saved project files will not open, or Prel stops working.

         Sandgrass-Saved files of Prel 13 projects will not open in Prel 13. Is there any way to reclaim/alter these files to where they will open? Could there be a missing codec?
        My computer—Hpe 580t, Win 7 Professional 64-bit OS with second internal 1 TB hard drive;
           Intel R Core, TM i7 CPU 950 @ 3.07 GHz,      RAM 9.00GB
All of my clips and stills were taken on my Nikon CoolPix P500. They will import just fine from PSE organizer or from Prel 13 organizer and I can edit just fine. The trouble seems to be when I attempt to open the saved project files for further editing or adding movie theme and scene markers for a 54-minute movie.
                   I have tried opening from within Prel 13 and from the stored files on my Data Drive E:. Prel opens the project and tries to load; then an error msg appears: “Premiere Elements has stopped working. Windows will close the program and let you know if a solution is found”, or an error message says "Cannot open:---this file is not compatible with Pre"l. Only one copy of several edited and rendered copies of the project will open, and I am very afraid to touch it until someone can maybe suggest a solution. I tried saving copies of the one working file, but none of them will open. Thank you for your assistance.      Sandgrass

Did you say that you were working on Windows or Mac? For now, assuming Windows,
1. Go to the Adobe Folder in Documents (should be there unless you changed the default).
2. Locate the project.prel file of interest in Adobe Folder/Documents Folder/Premiere Elements Folder/11.0 Folder. Inside the 11.0 Folder, among some folders and other files, are the project.prel files if you did not do any special organization. Right click the project.prel of interest and select Open With, followed by Premiere Elements 10. Does the project now open?
Do you have any versions of Premiere Elements on your computer except this Premiere Elements 10?
Have you deleted or moved any of the source media that went into your project after you saved/closed any of these projects? Where are your source media stored? If on an external hard drive, is the drive letter of that drive changing on its own?
What happens if you rename one of the problem project.prel files in the Adobe Folder and then try to open it from there?
Just some thoughts for now.
We will be watching for further developments.
Thanks.

Cannot open saved project/make new projekt - whats wrong?!?

i made last days a nice idvd project with a lot of slideshows. all was working fine, i was able to save it, open it again, work on it etc...but then:
when i want to open saved project idvd just mark the file, i hear my harddrive working - and nothing happens! i made the update from aplle, but same problem - idvd stays frozen if i want to open the project. so i tryed to make new project - its doing the same!
free space on harddrive 34,7 GB...i reinstalled and made update from apple but it wont help.
does anybody nows how to fix the problem?!?

Hi
*Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows.*
• Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
• Hard disk is untidy. Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
• Delete iDVD pref file - *or rather start a new user/account* - log into this and re-try
iDVD pref file resides. Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences and is named.
com.apple.iDVD.plist
While iDVD is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
Now restart iDVD.
• Program miss-match. iDVD 5.0.2, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK - DON’T work under Leopard
• Program miss-match. iDVD 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
• Program miss-match. iDVD’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
• iDVD (08) v7 Locate theme folder. Move out iDVD1, iDVD 2 and eventually iDVD4 folders to desktop - re-try
• Try a Cleaning CD/DVD that cleans the laser lens on the DVD burner/player
iDVD 6.0.4 and iDVD 7.0.1 are compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
Last resort. from Craig. Solved the problem!! Finally!!
I deleted every iDVD application and folder from my boot drive,
emptied the trash and then installed iDVD 08 using the customize option
and I am up and running.
If You do a re-install be sure to get rid of all iDVD old parts AND then EMPTY the Trash-basket !
iDVD updated ?
Apple Codec updated ?
Start a New Clean project - or delete project assets

Saving projects with Transitions and Titles - iMovie 3

Every time I edit a movie in iMovie 3, add transitions and titles, and then save, the next time I open the project, I get a window saying there are x number of stray clips (my transition and title clips) and would I like to move them to the clip panes or leave them alone. Either way, they end up being out of order. Why will they not stay in the edited order that I put them in, even after I hit Save?

I do Save the projects this way and all the clips show up in the edit panel below the clip frames. BUT, none of the Transition or Title clips stay in the edit panel below. Each time I open the saved project, a message window appears saying that there are x number of stray clips (the Transition and Title Clips). Then it asks me if I would like to leave them alone or put them in the clips pane. If I put them in the clips pane, then I have to once again reposition them where they belong in the edit panel below. This happens every time.

Having trouble saving tiff files to server

Hi all,
I'm having trouble saving tiff files to our server (a mac pro running OSX 10.5.7 client not server). I get the error message 'could not save "filename" because write access was not granted. The disk in question is set to ignore permissions and the other 3 Macs on the network have no problems.
Bizarrely this only seems to happen when saving as a Tiff file, I can save as JPEG without issue! The file will usually save after a few attempts, sometimes six or seven save as' are needed.
This problem comes and goes, but at the moment its pretty bad.
This is becomming very frustrating as Tiff is our prefered format and we work as a team so have to save to the server.
Any ideas?

Just to expand on Buko's correct ansswer, this is the boilerplate text I use in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See:
http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/322391.html
Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work. It should.
Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

I'm having trouble saving my file in adobe acrobat pro 9

I'm having trouble saving my file in adobe acrobat pro 9. When I attempt to save I get message saying,"Bad File Handle". There are several pictures on this file I'm trying to save...dont know if that has anything to do with the problem, just thought it would be helpful information. Would really appreciate any insight anyone has to offer.
Thanks in advance

I am having a similar problem with a simple pdf form. I have made several changes to the pdf and when I go to save, I get the message that I can't save the file due to a "bad file handle." I have opened, altered, saved, and closed the form several times before, just not now. No one else was working on the form. The file format is still a pdf and nothing has changed.

Trouble saving a pdf from In Design with Illustrator files linked.

I have trouble saving a pdf from In Design. Most of the files i've linked are Illustrator files with size up to 70mb.
I am getting out of memory message The In Design file isn't that big - about 9mb.
HELP!!!!!!

It did not help to close and reopen it.
Not sure what you mean with exporting in chunks but if you mean exporting page for page , so it didn't work either.
I think that i'll try to reduce the size of Illustrator files , but I 'm not sure what will be the optimum size for that In Design won't crush again.
Or maybe i should make the presentation in illustrator instead? It take some time to save pdf from illustrator when the original file is about 90mb, but still it works.

Where is the .m2v menu file located for saved projects?

Hi, i've done this before, but seem to have forgotten...I was wondering where is the location of the .m2v files of a saved project. The reason why i would like to find the .m2v file, is so i could convert the .m2v to .dv in order to create a menu on motion. From my remembering, the menu file could possibly be under the project file under "show package contents", but i seem to not have any success of looking for it recently. Can anyone help verify where the menu files are located?
thanks for your time.

i've burned the project and looked at the contents of the dvd and found a file with a .evo extension, would this have any relation to my question?

evo is HD DVD file, not SD, so this may not apply (and you probably want to double check your project settings.)
The items that DVD SP makes are in the PAR & MPEG files in a folder in the level where the assets are located, and if you do the show package contents on the project and look in the Render Data Folder what you are looking for should be there (when DVD SP has to render, there are some times it will not have to render)- Check out the manual DVD SP 4 (Pg 230 of the PDF) for certain instances (not all) where menus willl have to be compiled/rendered
To do the show packkage http://dvdstepbystep.com/ira/ shows how to do it, just Highlight the DVD SP saved project (instead of the app intself) as shown in Step 1 on that link, then drill down

Why are iDVD saved project files so large if the media is not archived with it?

I now understand the difference (I think) between a saved project and an archived project, but I would expect my saved project files to be smaller in size. Are there really some hidden media files that it still can access (or that I can find)?

Hey guys, so I have a DVD stuck in the CD drive on my mac. It reads it as being in there, but I cannot eject it and it is causing my a lot of issues with my mac. If i try to eject it, Finder acts up and I have issues saving projects or even browsing files

hey guys, so I have a DVD stuck in the CD drive on my mac. It reads it as being in there, but I cannot eject it and it is causing my a lot of issues with my mac. If i try to eject it, Finder acts up and I have issues saving projects or even browsing files. I feel like it interferes with iPhoto as well because it says it is locked and I have no rights to view it. I wanted to see if anyone else had/s this issue and how you fixed it before lugging it into the apple store and being without a computer for a few weeks...

A few other suggestions here as well:

Having trouble saving as .doc format

I am having real trouble saving any edited documents to .doc format. I am editting my CV and it is obviously neccessary for it to be compatible with microsoft office so I save a copy as .doc but as I edit it and go to resave as .doc it does not save the changes, when I go back into it the document has reverted back to my last copy of my CV.
Please help!! I have rang apple but because my apple care has expired they want to charge me £35 to help me??

Nic,
No charges here .
The first thing that comes to mind is that your understanding of how this works may not match the way Pages does this. You'll use either File > Export > Word... or Share > Export > Word... . Neither will update a previously exported document unless you choose the same filename for the second export as for the first, and then override the warning.

Why did ps touch does not show saved project and my old project disappear?

Why did ps touch (ipad 4) does not show saved project and my old project disappear?

OldGhias,
Have you found a solution yet? I don’t know if I will be of any help but I was curious and no one else has chimed in yet.
I don’t quite understand all of your statement.
To clarify, you were making SimpleSave backups from Win95 and cannot see them all on the Win7 laptop?
Or
You were copying files over (SimpleSave utility not used) and you cannot see those files on Win7 but you can on the Win95 machine?
Do you have another Win7 machine you could connect the external to, to see if the files are still not showing (one that is not locked for work)?
On the drive that shows full, can you see it in Disk Management showing the correct size of the drive and also another CD drive? Not your real CD/DVD drive, it’s actually a CD emulator that is attached to the HDD for encrypting the backups and all SimpleSave’s have them.
Lastly, did you reformat the SimpleSave drive to Fat32 first?
My understanding is that USB support was quite limited on Win95 machines. Since Win95 is Fat32 and the SimpleSave drive is by default NTFS, I would think it would not work.

Trouble saving pdf - adobe reader X

Sure thing. I can't save the PDFs from this (and other) journals whether I open them in a new window (default) or I force them to open in a new Firefox tab in my current window. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/01918869
