Why do i get quicktime error -50 everytime i try to export a project?

why do i get quicktime error -50 everytime i try to export a project?

I had this -50 error when exporting my movie. I tried multiple things to fix that, when I discovered the solution.
When you insert/add/overwrite a clip into the timeline, sometimes FCPX does not generate the vignettes associated to the video (only the audio waveforms are correctly displayed). You can read the clip successfully, apply effects and do everything with it in the timeline, but when exporting this corrupted clip, the -50 error will occur. The solution is then to remove this clip and add it again (it should not bug twice on the same clip!).
So I do not know whether you are in the same situation, but I hope this could help.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
    Try this - Disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

    I-Photo won't open even though I have upgraded to OS X Yosemite and downloaded the I-Photo upgrader.
    But have you run the the iPhoto Library upgrader? It is installed in Applications > Utilities. Launch it and direct it to your iPhoto library.
    Which version of iPhoto did you upgrade from?
    The upgrader is only necessary, if you have been  running iPhoto7.1.2 or earlier.

    Sometimes this will work as well when you get that message. It's easy to do. Try it before you do anything else.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Cache or Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • I am getting an error message when i try to export "Not enough memory" what do it do?

    I am getting an error message when i try to export "Not enough memory" what do it do?

    Your 400GB is not what I was speaking of. I was not speaking of disk space. I was speaking of memory.
    The memory in your computer needs to be 8GB or more, and you must have a 64 bit operating system (which can still happen even if your computer is less than 12 months old). What operating system do you have? Is it 32bits or 64bits?

  • In attempt to burn blu-ray, I get QuickTime error 0.  Takes hours to export a 7 minute movie from timeline, then get notice it fails.  What's going on here?

    New problem just started 24 hours ago.  When I try to export from the time line to create a QuickTime file, a 7 minute movie on time line takes 3 hours to export and then the export fails, where as a few days ago, that export would take about 10 minutes at most.  I get the same failure notice when I try to share to blu-ray, DVD, or Vimeo.  Tried to use compressor, no such luck as compressor failed to make a .mov file.  I get QuickTime error 0 message about 5 minutes into trying to share to Blu-Ray now.   Does anyone know what is going on here?  I'm running latest update of Snow Leopard on an intel Mac Pro and the latest update to Final Cut Pro X.  I've also installed QT 7.6.6 to use in creating time lapse movie files.

    Same problem here, too. Final Cut Pro X 10.0.3 on OS 10.6.8. However, it is only doing it on ONE of my projects. A 4-second test project burned successfully.
    I'm  actually going to use iDVD to burn copies for a few people, so I only need the movie file from FCPX.
    Would someone please post best export settings for use on a DVD? In FCPX, the project is  in HD (1080p) with all media optimized to ProRes 442. I know it will have to be down-sampled to DVD resolution, but I've always been curious to know what settings will result produce the best possible quality in DVD resolution.
    Thank you!

  • I am getting quicktime error 50 when I attempt to export a retimed project in fcpx to youtube. I mix and match retime rates. I usaully have no issues. The entire project is retimed.

    I am getting quicktime error 50 message when I try to share a project to youtube. I use retime frequently, mixing and matching rates with no issues. I am having trouble with this project. The entire project is retimed ( which  I have done before), it is four minutes and change in length. I used different rates, holds as well, and
    secondary storylines ( retimed to match the primary clip rate ). Any suggestions would be helpfull, thank you.

    I figured it out:
    FCPX does not support NTFS drives, even with Paragon NTFS working perfectly for everything else on the system.
    I guess Apple (just) assumes that nobody will, or should, be using any other filesystem than Mac with FCPX.
    I wasted hours looking for a solution, when a better error message besides a misleading "cannot allocate memory" could have been something more useful.
    Not impressed.

  • Why do I keep getting an error message everytime I try to burn a cd

    Please help, for days now I have not been able to burn a CD. Everytime I try to burn a disc, I keep getting the message "The attempt to burn a CD failed.The burn failed because of a medium write error". Is anyone else having the same problems if so are there any solution.Any information will be appreciated.

    Is anyone else having the same problems if so are there any solution.
    Search the forum (I use a general web search engine) and you will find hundreds and hundreds of posts about this, spanning over a decade.  You may even find one of the several posts I make about this each month.
    Try restarting your computer.
    Try a slower burn speed.
    Try a different brand of media.
    Try using an optical drive cleaning disc.
    See if you can burn successfully outside of iTunes.  There's many free burning utilities out there (check www.pure-mac.com).  If those fail then it is likely something more fundamentally wrong with the drive.  Any Macbook old enough to be running 10.5.8 may well be old enough to need a new optical drive.
