When i'm exporting to quicktime i get a message that IMovie crashed or I get a heap zone message

I'm trying to export a movie to quicktime and it wont fully export because IMovie crashes or i get a heap zone message. WHAT DO I DO PLZ HELP!
I'm using IMovie 11

You may have insufficient free space on your hard drive. You need at least 20% or 30GB - iMovie needs lots of space for swap and temp files to perform that operation.

  • When I try to install QuickTime, I get the message "newer version is already installed". How can I do?

    When I try to install QuickTime, I get the message "newer version of QuickTime already installed". I uninstalled QuickTime. I have also gone into the registry and deleted all references regarding QuickTime. I really don't want to have to reinstall Windows just to be able to install QuickTime. I have used QuickTime for years and want to use it again. What do you suggest I do?

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATION" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up").
    In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC. Now try another QuickTime install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Error when test or export to quicktime

    I've had cs3 for a few months now and all of a sudden when I
    go to test movie or export to quiktime I get an error message and
    flash shutsdown.
    "Adobe Flash CS3 has encountered a problem and needs to
    close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
    I can still export to avi. Anyone know what the problem
    is?

    Did you ever get an answer to this problem?

  • Cant export in quicktime pro get buffer overrun detected

    cant export in quicktime pro progeam shuts down and a microsoft visual c++ runtime libary buffer overrun detected error pops up what is the fix for this??

    I do not know if this helps as my problem was specifically with picture viewer but I also was unable to run the quicktime updater. I removed quick time via the windows add/remove in control panel as I had done before. But this time I did a search for all quick time files and found over 50 files (I have 4 partitions and they were hiding in one of them). So I deleted them, did a defrag (using diskeeper 10) then downloaded the latest version of quick time. Now it works perfectly.

  • Why do i keep getting this Heap Zone error

    I have been trying and trying to export this movie i made in iMovie to iDVD. It is 35 min long and every time i try to export it to iDVD it gets like 3/4 of the way done and then it gives me this heap zone error. The movie is all pictures and are all in JPG format. I have made movies like this before and never got this error. The other movies i have created are 3 to 5 min long and have exported without a problem. I have tried to export it in numerous ways and i get the same error every time. Im running a Macbook Pro with pleanty of hard drive space and 4GB of RAM. I have tried the renaming the movie, restarting the computer, and reseting the RAM. I have disconnected all other devices including the mouse. Nothing but iMovie is running and when i watch activity moniter almost all of the active RAM goes to iMovie until it gets to about 25MB or free RAM and then it fails. I have tried almost everything and from what i've seen on the internet, this is a really big deal and a lot of people are having this problem. Apple needs to fix this.

    Hi
    To free up hard disk space
    • You trash what You don't want any more - and Empty trash-basket (lost for ever)
    • You move files and material to an external hard disk
    • You move Movie Events and Projects WITHIN The iMovie Program - NOT ON DESKTOP/Finder
    ( DO NOT MOVE or adjust any folder named iMovie Events or iMovie Projects - if done iMovie loses track of them and they can be destroyed to an un-repairable state)
    If You move Events and/or Projects within iMovie to an external hard disk then there is one MUST and one Should
    • MUST - it must be Mac OS Extended (HFS) formatted as UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange will not work FOR VIDEO (everything else but not this)
    • Should be a FireWire one - as USB/USB2 performs badly to me
    Trash the pref file
    • Delete iMovie pref. file
    iMovie pref. file resides.
    Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
    and is named. (one or more of these)
    com.apple.iMovie.plist
    com.apple.iMovie3.plist
    com.apple.iMovie7.plist
    com.apple.iMovie8.plist
    com.apple.iMovie9.plist
    com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
    and find
    com.apple.iApps.plist
    While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this/these file/s out on to desk-top.
    Now restart iMovie.
    If You run Mac OS X.7 or more - then the Library in the User-account folder is invisibly and need to be set to be viewable. IT IS NOT in the Library on Root level (when opening MacintoshHD - first window = root level)
    ( It can be done like this: Open Terminal, then enter: chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press return, then restart, and it will always be visible until the next major update, when you do the same thing again. )
    Yours Bengt W - AND A VERY HAPPY NEW 2012 !

  • "Include" options when doing an export to QuickTime Movie in FCE 4?

    I've been doing a ton of testing on using keyframe motion with stills (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1646571&tstart=0) so I'm not sure if I've made up what I think happened, or if it's a different option that I'm not seeing.
    When I added some text to one of my tests, I did an File > Export > QuickTime Movie. Then under the Save As... dialog box, the Include menu had a whole bunch of options that I had never seen before, with the first few of them starting with the "#" sign, if I'm not mistaken.
    Normally I only see "Audio and Video", "Audio Only" and "Video Only". Did I dream this scenario where I thought I saw a whole long list of things in there that, if I remember right, some of them appeared to be like font names? Maybe it was a different app. Like I said, I've been doing a ton of testing. Reason I ask is because whatever it was, in whatever app it was, that was the only test where I was able to produce an output file that does what I want.
    Thanks.

    don't need this one answered.

  • When trying to export to quicktime in imovie '09 it gives the osstatus error -2000?

    I am using iMovie '09 and when I try to export the project to quicktime, it gives me the osstatus error -3000.  Can anyone help me understand why this is happening??

    It's 720 x 540. MPEG-4 Video, MPEG Layer 3, MPEG-4 AAC. Hope this helps.
    Okay, this is going to require additional information for analysis. QT 7 Pro "Properties" window screen capture might solve the iTunes issue—i.e., a screen capture data like this...
    However, the video matter may be more of an issue. With MPEG-4 and H.264 codecs you sometimes need to know the Profile, Level, data rate, etc. to ensure the encoded data meets certain codec standards. For instance, are you referring to a non-AVC MPEG-4 ASP Level 5 encode with a data rate less than 8 Mbps?

  • FCE seems to be freezing up when trying to export to Quicktime Conversion

    I've been working on a FCE project that comes in at 14 minutes or so. But when I try to export it with best video settings and normal audio, it stops rendering at 20%, even as the estimated time continues to climb. - (I cancelled when it got to two hours.!)
    I assume I somehow messed up the settings, but after three tries, all "freezing" at 20%, with the same result, I figure I better ask for some help.
    Craig

    Thanks Al,
    Well, after lots of different tries, I got it to work. I think it might have had something to do with having the INTERNET STREAMING box checked, when I didn't need that..?
    However, I just noticed a TINY, green .., house(?) at a certain point, right above the timeline. Any idea what that is...?

  • Export Using Quicktime Conversion getting too long

    Hi everyone ! I work with Final Cut Pro for over a year now. I have the last mac book pro from April 2011 and i just finished a talk show for a guy i work for.
    The problem is, i started the export since 2 hours and he tells me that i have to wait 4 hours. It's only 31% !!
    I need your help 'cause i have an apointment in 2 hours and i have to give him the show ! When i do the export without the conversion, it takes 15 mins but the frame is not good and there's some problems with the video. I need to do the conversion to make it work right ! I do it before but with shorts video clips, now it's for a show of 18 minutes and it takes to much time.
    Please help me !
    Ah, i forgot, the show was shot with 3 Canon 7D so i don't understand why it takes so long...
    Thanks !

    >Why si it necessary to converted to ProRes ?
    Because FCP doesn't work with non-FCP codecs well.  It isn't designed to.  It, like Avid, craves that the media be converted to an editing codec that it supports.  H.264 isn't viable in FCP because it is highly compressed.  FCP isn't designed to work with that format natively.
    Adobe Premiere CAN work natively with H.264 because it is designed to.  It has presets, it uses graphics cards that enable CUDA and the Mercury Engine to enable more processing power to be thrown at the H.264 files.  If you don't have a graphics cards that enables CUDA and the Mercury Engine...editing H.264 in Premiere Pro is a DOG!
    >Can i do it with Adobe Media Encoder from the CS5 Suite ? It's the only converter that I have !
    Uhmmm....you should have Compressor.  It comes with Final Cut Pro...part of the install disk.  Installs by default.
    >I walways use QT Conversion because without, i have some problems with the images, it started with pixels, sometimes it frozes a few seconds but the sound continue to roll and even a green screen come sometimes.
    Because you aren't doing things right.  You need to convert the footage to ProRes before you edit to avoid these issues.

  • When is Linksys going to fix the WPS54g web interface that's crashing?

    Since the last update 6049 in September 2005 which fixed problems but also introduced a new problem. If you used Firefox or Internet Explorer 7 both will completely crash the print server. Now with Internet Explorer 6 it works fine. The problem is you can't get Internet Explorer 6 with Vista, and also Microsoft is updating all Windows XP boxes to Internet Explorer 7 though the auto update. I love the web interface and the Admin tool is not as powerful as the web interface. There has not been an update since September 2005.Personally I use Ubuntu Linux and Firefox started crashing the server immediately with the update , but I needed. It was ok because I had a Windows VM with IE 6, and I figured Linksys wasn't going to give me the time of day. Any workarounds maybe?

    Message Edited by jerone on 02-22-200701:10 PM

    This is not a security setting problem. Firefox first exposed this problem and now IE 7 is exposing it. The print server should not crash if a web browser is viewing it. No matter if you are under Windows or Linux . I first saw this problem using Firefox under Linux. But IE 6 worked fine under Windows. But now IE 6 is now gone to the way side and both Firefox & IE 7 send commands to access web pages is exposing a serious problem in the WPS54g firmware.Message Edited by jerone on 02-22-200701:10 PM

  • General error when exporting to Quicktime from FCE

    I've built a slideshow with still photos, text, and audio. I've done this at least 20 times. When I start exporting to Quicktime, as I want to burn a dvd in iDVD, the export stops at 27% completed and I get a "General Error". there is no explanation. I've rendered the single sequence many times and it says ok. It plays fine in FCE but won't export to Quicktime. How do I correct the problem?

    I think I had the same problem that you are now having. I would get unexpected errors when trying to:
    1) Log and Transfer videos to external hard drives.
    2) Save my exports to an external Hard Drive.
    3) Copy large video files to the External Hard Drive.
    Assuming that you are using an external hard drive, chances are that isn't formatted correctly. It cannot be formatted in FAT32 or else large files (usually video) over 4GB cannot transfer. It may be that the file you are trying to export is larger than 4GB. If it is currently formatted FAT32 it needs to be formatted to Mac OS Extended. Hope I was of some help.
