    Make sure you have the destination (TO - the column on the right in the import screen) set to a location where you have write privileges on your computer. The level of the root of your hard drive is usually not writable with the standard user on mac os X configuration. Generally, you want something like the pictures folder in your home (/Users/photos) directory.

  • Movie Maker: Does not work! A similar program: will not play!

    Greetings from Microsoft professionals!

    So I just got me a new computer HP desktop with XP and everything works fantastic with the exception of Windows Movie Maker. I use it on a regualr basis to create 2d animation frame-by-frame and it is important that I have functional. Unfortunately, when I open it, it is quick to give me a window "has encountered a problem / needs to close." The debug option is useless. What is really strange is that I managed to get a very similar program called "Camtasia. This program works, although it will not play videos, even his own tutorials! Audio, however, works very well. I find as strange as Media Player plays video smoothly, seems to work on the same basis as the viewers of other programs...?

    Things that I've tried, from other responses on blogs, etc. :

    -Reinstall Movie maker

    -Uninstalling Movie maker (it says it cannot)

    -Apparently essential codec packs, one at a time, uninstall the last to avoid "clash".

    -Installation of DIVX

    -Remove, reinstall Adobe Flash player

    -Updated Windows service pack 3

    -Updated ActiveX (including suggested Internet security 'custom settings' to allow ActiveX to do his stuff by choosing prompting options

    instead of being completely disabled

    -Ask my technical friends, suggesting a codec problem.

    I've been at this for eight hours, and this is my last ditch in order to understand this. Help, please!
