What is error 8971 when saving a slideshow as an MP4 movie?

I'm new to Lightroom 3.  I made a slideshow and followed all the directions in the manual to make the slideshow and save it through export video.  When I went to send it as an email attachment I got an error message it could not open the file because of an error code 8971.  What does that mean? 
I also wanted to add some music and selected that option which took me to My Music--the folders were there but the playlists under the album were not so I couldn't select them for my slideshow.  In the tutorial Ms. Kost seemed to have a different box where the music files were that were compatible with Lightroom 3.  I couldn't find those anywhere.  Jeannie 19

Hi Pete,
Thank you for responding.  I still get the same 8971 error message after downloading the latest Quick Time.  Earlier I had tried installing and reinstalling the whole Lightroom until I heard from you and that didn't work either.  The slideshow plays great in Lightroom.  It is just when I got to export video and it saves it--it looks as though it saves it okay--it just won't play it. But it sounds as though this is the area to focus on.   Jean

    I get an error message when saving a PDF to PNG. JPG and TIFF works, but no PNG.
    Disk space is sufficient! 100GB of 250
    A few weeks ago it was no problem to save as PNG. But now! (Perhaps from last update?)

    I have this issue too, but my colleagues do not have this issue(we have same Acrobat Pro 11.0.09). I am sure this issue happens only you updated to 11.0.09, because when you use Windows Restore back to 11.0.08, no issues.

  • "I/O error 103" when saving macro in Homesite 5.5

    I am getting an obscure error -- obscure because I'm an end-user, not a programmer, and therefore don't know what to do about it --- "I/O error 103" when trying to save a newly recorded macro in Homesite 5.5.
    Can anyone tell me if there is a remedy for this, or some pointers on how to get my macros saved?  I have an earlier version of Homesite on another machine, and have no problems recording, saving, and using macros.
    Thanks!

    You might try running CHKDSK on the disk to where you try to save the file. You might have a corrupted file directory or a damaged track on that disk. I urge you to backup what you can before trying this.

  • Error message when saving to a:\ drive when no disk present

    I am using a Jfilechooser andsaving images using ImageIO, but I want add in the code necessary to display an error message when the user tries to save to the a:\ drive but there is no disk present. How would I do this, this is the code so far:
    JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser();
    chooser.setApproveButtonMnemonic('a');
    chooser.setApproveButtonText("Save");
    // create a file chooser with save dialog
    int returnVal = chooser.showSaveDialog(c);
    // If the user selects ok
    if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
    // Get the file the user selected
    File file = chooser.getSelectedFile();
    / Get the name of the selected file
    String name = file.getName();
         // Set the format name to null
    String formatName = null;
    // Get the index number of when the . occurs in the file name
    int dot = name.indexOf(".");
         try {
         if(dot == -1) {
         file = new File(file.getParentFile(),
    name + "." + defaultExtension);
         formatName = defaultExtension;
         else {
    // else get the format name using a substring.
         formatName = name.substring(dot+1);
         // If the image cannot be saved, display an error message.
         if(!ImageIO.write(bi, formatName, file)) {
         file.delete();
         JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(c,
         "The image could not be saved. Please ensure that the extension is .jpg or .png",
         "Image save failed",
         JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
         else {          // The image can be saved, so display a confirmation message
         JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(c,
         "The image has been saved to:\n"+
         file.getPath(),
         "Image Saved",
         JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
         catch(IOException e) {               // Display an error message if save fails.
         JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(c,
         "The image could not be saved, no space on disk!!\n" + e,
         "Image save failure",
         JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);

    Again I have tried this, but in my program if I try to save to the a drive when no disk is inserted, the JOptionPane i want to display is not coming up.
    the system prints out
    java.io.FileNotFoundException: A:\image.jpg <The device is not ready>
    If that makes any sense to you

    FIXED .....
    OK guys....I had this problem for the longest time & Whenever I tried to use "save to web" feature, I would get the same error.... after a lot of research & finally found a resolution.....
    I wanted to take this opportunity to share the resolution why this feature was not working properly....
    Here is the link where you will find what the problem was...
    http://www.techsupportforum.com/microsoft-support/windows-vista-window s-7-support/235245-solved-error-1324-when-installing-applications.html
    Basically, go to this registry location:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\U ser Shell Folders
    & make sure that your current "my documents" sub folders are set to:
    My Music       REG_EXPAND_SZ         %USERPROFILE%\Music My Pictures    REG_EXPAND_SZ         %USERPROFILE%\Pictures
    My Videos      REG_EXPAND_SZ         %USERPROFILE%\Videos
    Personal         REG_EXPAND_SZ         %USERPROFILE%\Documents
    etc...etc...etc....
    When I fixed my registry...this error went away & I had no problems with it anymore...please post this resolution on the website for others!

  • Error message when saving an Interaction Record: Document distributed

    Hello experts,
    We are currently getting error message: "Document is being distributed - changes are not possible" when saving an Interaction Record in Web IC (We use CRM 6 - 2007).
    We've noticed that saving an interaction record triggers an outbound BDoc of type "BUS_TRANS_MSG". In order to prevent this BDoc to be generated, we deactivated the processing for the One-Order BDoc with transaction SMW3_0. However, this had the side effect that quotations were not replicated from CRM to ECC so we can't really use this approach.
    Has anyone faced this issue before? Do you know how to fix it?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    The initital status of Interaction record must ensure that transaction is not relevant for distribution. This ensures that CRM doesnot try to send the transaction to ERP through middleware.
    Go to SPRO ->CRM -> Transactions -> Basic Settings -> Status Management ->Change Status Profile for User status
    Here, select your status profile and click on the intiial status, scroll down and go to 'to be distributed' and select the radio button 'Forbidden'
    This will solve the problem.
    Many Thanks

  • Error message when saving .fm file

    I just upgraded my FrameMaker program to 7.2.
    When I try to save my work, the following message appears on-screen:
    An internal error occurred while writing imported graphics in this document.  The file has been saved, but has lost some image data.  Please report this error to Adobe Technical Support.
    My file has NOT been saved, none of the changes I've made have been saved.  I cannot save this file under a different name, either.  And the automated files that are generated by the program as &quot;back-up&quot; files are useless.
    HELP!!!

    Upgraded to 7.2..... Good that you didn't rush into it. ;-  )
    Anyway, that's the standard error message when a file contains objects imported using an OLE link AND you are running XP SP3.
    SP3 implemented security fixes that essentially broke OLE within Frame (and a number of other applications).
    So if your document(s) contain OLE links, you're likely to have to convert them to imported-by-reference graphics if they're graphic files or do some other type of conversion if they're tables or PPT slides.

  • "Unknown Error" Message when saving Illutrator CS3 file

    I get this unknown error message when attempting to save an illustrator file.(CS3). I tried to open and then save several files with the same resulting error message. As a work around, I have reverted to working in CS2 until I can get this resolved.

    Chris -
    Thanks for your quick response.
    Do I understand you correctly in saying that Photoshop CS3 has PostScript information that it routinely sends to a printer, and therefore I would need to have a PostScript compatible printer inorder to work with this information (and also for my ColorMunki calibration to work)?
    Based upon what you said, I think my color problems are because the ColorMunki profile for my printer, paper, & ink combination are being ignored.

  • "This file cannot be found" error message when saving document

    Hello,
    Strangely, every time I click "save" in CS6 it opens up a 'Save As' window, (which shouldn't happen), then I click save witht the existing file name (it then tells me the doc already exists), I click OK, (and then OK to the next popup window) then get the message that "This file cannot be found".  I'm forced to click "ok" and the doument isn't saved.  I've tried saving it differently in previous versions and it still doesn't work.  I recorded a video of this behavior. You can see it here - http://screencast.com/t/W1GYK0zsrk 
    Why would it be trying to find a file?  It seems like an error message when trying to Open a doc, not Save a doc.
    Please HELP!!  I can't shutdown my station until I get the document to save.

    Yes, Mohit1233 - it happened with every file yesterday. Finally, I closed the doc (forcing me to lose my work), then restarted my computer and today the problem is gone. I'm working on a PC (HP);
    Barblove - I tried doing that yesterday (copying and pasting into a new doc), and still nothing. I also tried copying the work into a CS3 doc (but got an error message).
