"Unable to create volume" error when exporting

Exporting photos from iPhoto gives me the "unable to create Volume" error. iPhoto and Mountain Lion are the latest versions, and most recent updates. Library of 30,000 images is currently on an NAS. Destination drive is formatted Mac OSX Extended (Journaled, Encrypted).
Library has already been rebuilt. No change.
PNGs have been deleted from library. No change.
Tried batch re-titling every image in the library library, and exporting so that exported files were named according to title, followed by a number--thus no two files would have the same name. No change.
Any suggestions?

Library of 30,000 images is currently on an NAS.
Likely cause right there.
iPhoto needs to have the Library sitting on disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Users with the Library sitting on disks otherwise formatted regularly report issues including, but not limited to, importing, saving edits and sharing the photos.
Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder Window should open with the file selected. Does it?

Getting "Unable to create VOLUMES/" error when exporting photos

I am trying to export a number of photos from iPhoto '08 to a USB stick that has been freshly formated with FAT 32. When iPhoto reaches a photo that has a vertical orientation the export stops and throws this error:
"Unable to create VOLUMES/JUMP DRIVE/filename"
These photos were taken with a Canon Powershot SD700IS. The camera has the ability to sense orientation when the picture is taken. It will automatically rotate pictures that were taken while holding the camera on its side. If the picture was taken with a horizontal (normal) orientation the export is successful.
I was able to work around this by opening the offending files in Preview and saving them from there. Obviously this is a time consuming extra step that shouldn't be necessary.
If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate them!
Thanks!

Then you have a managed library.
Go to your Pictures Folder. There you'll see the icon for your iPhoto Library. Right Click on that icon and select 'Show Package Contents' from the resulting menu. A Finder window will open and you'll see your Library internals. Have a look for the /Originals Folder. Inside it will be the folders for your Events. These should include the full sized photos.
If they do, then
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums back.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Unable to create volume - error message when exporting

Hello - relatively new Mac and iphoto user here.
I'm trying to export photos from iphoto to a 2 GB thumb drive. I keep getting the error message "unable to create volume" when I try to move anything but very small batches of photos over. What's going on? I tried to create a folder on my desktop for the photos but then when I try to move from there I get an error message telling me the photo "is in use" and can't be moved to the thumb drive.
I would move them to my external hard drive but I'm having trouble with it too. It won't even show up. When I run a disk utility on it it says it can't be verified. Sigh. So that's a whole other issue that will probably take something like Disk Warrior to clean up.
In the meantime, I'm trying to move images to the thumb drive then I'm putting the thumb drive in my other computer and moving the images from the thumb drive to it's external hard drive A long process when you can only move about 20 images at a time from iphoto.
I'm just trying to move a good bit of old photos out of iphoto on the Mace because I'm scared that the program or even my entire computer is going to crash and I'm going to have data loss.
What can I do about the "unable to create volume" message? And what's with the "file in use" error message when I try to move the images off a file folder on the desktop.
Is there a better way to move 1GB of photos all at once to the thumb drive?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Seems to be two issues complicating things here:
I'm trying to export photos from iphoto to a 2 GB thumb drive. I keep getting the error message "unable to create volume" when I try to move anything but very small batches of photos over.
What format is that wee drive? Mostly there are FAT16 or FAT 32 and there is a limit to the number of objects they can have on the root of the drive. The workaround is to export to a Folder on the desktop and copy that over.
Which brings us to:
I tried to create a folder on my desktop for the photos but then when I try to move from there I get an error message telling me the photo "is in use" and can't be moved to the thumb drive.
You will sometimes get this message when you try to export two files +with the same name+ to a Folder. As you know your camera is well capable of producing many files called something like DSC_1234.jpeg. In iPhoto these will be in separate folders, so no problem. However, when you go to export them to the Folder on the desktop if iPhoto continues the export one will overwrite the error.
Solution: Give the Pics a title (Photos -> Batch Change) and a sequential number. Then when you export, in the export dialogue you have the option to use the Title as filename.

"Unable to Create Volumes" error message in iPhoto export

Hi. I am attempting to export all of my videos from iPhoto onto an external drive. I have read several articles in this community, but so far my problem has not been solved. I keep getting the error message "Unable to /create/volumes/Lisa's Prtable Drive..." when I attempt to export. I have experimented with changing batch names, selecting fewer movies to export, etc. I AM able to export one video at a time, but I have 719 videos to move, and would much rather do them all at once.
Thank you for any help!

For Mac, see "Re-create Preferences File" here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-system-errors-freezes-mac.html
There are some other suggestions re permissions that are worth looking at.
Some font issues come from one or more damaged fonts.
Please let us know if you find a solution or any hints.
I'm still scratching my head; I don't want to call it "thinking" or anything that suggests a process likely to produce any useful information....

"Unable to create font" error when starting After Effects CS4 (Windows Vista)

Hi all
I have read a hundred posts about the "unable to create font" message that appears when running After Effects in both CS4 and CS5 versions.
On MAC, it seems that installing the Verdana fonts family is enough.
On my PC running Windows Vista, i tried unsuccessfully :
- uninstalled and reinstalled After Effects
- installed all the fonts of the Adobe Font Folio v11
- looked for the "AdobeFnt.lst" to delete it, found no such file in my whole hard drive
- changed my system language to English (USA)
Other CS4 softwares work.
What can i do?

See this page for some additional information about this error.
> I forgot to mention that i also installed the 9.0.2 update. Didn't work either!
You should also install the After Effects CS4 (9.0.3) update.

Intermittent 'Unable to read file' error when exporting/opening .html to .xls

Hi, hope someone can help.
I have an issue where I export a report from the Salesform platform to Excel. The file that is being exported is in html format and the report does not include any Pivot tables.
The 'Unable to read file' error occurs intermittently, when Excel is already open and you export/open it from Salesforce...
Have tried using Excel in safe mode with all the add-ins disabled and still no joy. The
Do not save encrypted paged to disk option has been un-ticked the in Internet Options -> advanced.
The issue happens in IE and other browsers, after raising the issue with Salesforce support they advised to raise the issue with MS instead, so here I am to see if anyone can help!
Any help would be much appreciated

Tools>Internet Options>Advanced tab, uncheck "Do not save encrypted files to disk"
check your GPO settings to see if you have configured this to be unchecked.
Thx.

I am trying to export my iPhotos to an external HDD. As soon as it gets to 200 photos, I get an error message that says unable to create volumes/freecom/my pictures. Can i remove this limit or increase it? I have nearly 17,000 pictures to export.

1. What format is the external drive? It sounds like it's ina format that Macs can't write to. Is it a NAS or NTFS?
2. Easiest thing: just move your iPhoto Library to the external
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

Error when exporting file from LR5.2 - file created

After updating to LR5.2, I receive an error when exporting files to another disk drive. a file is created, but a warning appears "Unable to Export: "An internal error has occurred: Win32 API error 2 ("The system cannot find the file specified.") when calling ShellExecuteExW from AgWorkspace.shellExecute".

Error when exporting reports using MAPI

We created a .NET class that wraps CR 2010 .NET Crystal Reports functions and made it COM visible. This class is used to create a COM object in a js script which in turn used to export reports to a PDF file with the destination MAPI.
It exports reports just fine without any errors however if prior to instantiation the exporting class we instantiate a class that has nothing to do with the Crystal Reports functions, our exporting object throws u201CExternal component has thrown an exception.u201D error when exporting. It appears that it has something to do with the SideBySide feature. I was wondering if somebody knows what causes this and if there is a way to fix this problem.

Unable to create volume

I have a MBP (running Lion and the latest version of iPhoto) and I'm trying to back up my 10GB of photos to a 500GB external drive. I get most of the way through then get the message "Unable to create volume". Any ideas?

You're exporting the photos from iPhoto, right?
That message usually means that iPhoto is unable to find one of the pics.

"Unable to create control" error

I have installed Quicktime 7.13. There were some installation issues revolving around the inability to uninstall the older version, which required editing registry keys to allow deletion. At last the install went without errors. The icon appears in the task tray.
However, whenever I try to start the QT player, the Error window "Unable to create control" appears. If I click OK, the GUI appears, but I get the same error if I try to open a .mov file. Whenever I try to open a jpg or bmp in the Picture viewer, I get a window stating "Couldn't display [six or seven gibberish characters.]
I need some direction on these symptoms. Thanks.

I had the same problem after installing QuickTime 7.1.3 through the iTunes version 7 download. I could run iTunes OK, but when I tried to start QuickTime I received the "Unable to create control" error in my user ID which has admin privileges and which was used for the install. My son's user ID, which does not have admin privileges, ran iTunes and Quicktime with no problems.
I finally decided to remove QuickTime using my user ID and using the Windows Add/Remove Programs function in the Control Panel. I then downloaded QuickTime without iTunes from the Apple website and re-installed it. It now works fine in both my user ID and my son's ID.
I'm not an expert on this stuff, but maybe uninstalling and re-installing QuickTime could solve your issue, too.
