    By photo CD do you mean you're trying to burn image files to a CD disk from iPhoto? How are you going about this?

  • Error when exporting slideshow (OSStatus error -9459)

    I put together a slideshow in iphoto without problem. The problem starts when I want to export the slideshow - in order to make it available in iTunes. The export process seemingly randomly stops with the error message (OSStatus error -9459).
    The slideshow is rather large (500 pictures and some videos), I was not able to recreate the error when trying on a small selection, incl. movie clips.
    Is the pure number of the pictures or the resulting file the reason for this? Anything else?
    How can I solve this? Did anybody else have that problem?
    Btw I am running Lion (but the error also happened with SnowLeopard).
    Thanks for any advice.

    In your SystemPreferences -> Energy Saver set your Mac and screen to never sleep.

  • OSStatus error -9459  message received when I tried to export slideshow

    OSStatus error -9459 message received when I tried to export an iphoto slideshow to imovie or iDVD. how do I work around it or correct the problem

    Yes, it let me create a project.  The error came when I tried to save...not save as...also came when I went to build the DVD.  It always saves before it begins to build and the same error message came up again.  It is a very simple DVD...no menus....just a plug and play.  It is a thearter performance that was shot and then edited in Pro and opening titles and credits added.  The thought is that the DVD would be put into the player and the timeline begins to play from the opening titles to the end credits...nothing fancy......

  • OSStatus Error - 9459 while exporting slideshow from Aperture 3.0.1

    While attempting to export a slideshow I get the message "Unable to Export Slideshow. The operation couldn't be completed. (OSStatus Error - 9459.)" This occurs when exporting to Apple TV or p720. Help please.

    I received this error, when exporting the slideshow.
    The slideshow took some time to export and the display on the Mac was set to sleep within the hour.
    The display went to sleep and soon afterwards, I received the error.
    If you have your display set to go to sleep then this could be one reason why you are receiving this error.
    If not then I'm stumped for another answer.

  • What is OSstatus error -9549 and how to solve it?

    When I was using my iPhoto '09 (Version 8.1.2 (424)) to export a slideshow, I got the following error:
    The operation couldn't be completed.
    OSstatus error -9549
    I've never seen this error before previously when performing similar operation. What does it mean and any solution?
    Thanks!

    I have the same 9549 error condition trying to export a Display resolutions slideshow. I can reliably repeat this error. My slideshow export hasw125 still images ~4mb each and two songs ~ 6 minutes. the error is thrown near the end of the export.
    Running iPhoto '09 version 8.1.2 (424)
    OS X 10.8.5
    Macbook Pro 2.2.Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4 GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM.
    Would appreciate a solution or workaround. FYI I'm using iPhoto to produce this slidshow because iMovie creates objectionally jumpy transitions when using Ken Burns effects. Pretty frustrating using these Apple products to try to make a slideshow with music. If anyone has a 3rd party software app that can do the job please share that too. I'm spending too much time troubleshooting faulty Apple apps.
    Thanks.

  • What does "OSStatus error -36" mean in Time Machine?

    I'm getting intermittent errors with Time Machine. It will not back up to my external HD (LaCie d2 quadra). When this happens, the external HD cannot even by ejected (by Finder or Disk Utility). I have to turn it off. When I turn it back on and run Disk Utility Repair Disk it always says that the LaCie appears OK.
    I don't know what's going on, but I'm suspecting it's the HD.
    Any help?
    The log says:

    Thank you. I'd already been to Pondini's TM FAQs and had suspected that the problem was corrupted files or bad media. Only DriveGenius DrivePulse has ever given me any error messages about that LaCie, and it said only that the drive had errors and needed repair ASAP. Disk Utility of course found nothing to repair. A tech at ProSoft suggested corrupted files, saying bad TM files often cannot be detected by normal means and that then the only solution is as you said: backup, reformat, and restore the LaCie.
    Unfortunately, the Backups.backupdb file is about 1.5 TB and I didn't have another drive that big to back up to. Now I do, so following the directions in "Time Machine: How to transfer backups from the current backup drive to a new backup drive" I backed up the backup to a new OWC drive. (The copying took about 20 hours.)
    I certainly can't trust the LaCie until I can ascertain whether the errors were caused by corrupt files or bad media. At this point, I have little idea how to do that. After the holidays, I'll look into it.
