How I Fixed My Problem Of iMovie Videos Not Sharing or Uploading With Youtube

I've had a number of increasing problems with iMovie for some time.  It would share some videos to YouTube with no problems, then the next one or more would fail. It would process the videos as created in iMovie but then not upload them.

Thankfully, I have found a repeatable and consistent fix!


Here is the youtube video I've made explaining the issue and how to fix it.

If you find the video helpful please give it a thumbs up and share it.

How To Get Back Deleted Bookmark Folders In Mac Google Chrome

RED ALERT

IF YOU HAVE COME TO THIS PAGE AS YOU HAVE JUST DELETED A VITAL FOLDER BOOKMARKS FOLDER FROM APPLE MAC X VERSION OF GOOGLE CHROME, DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES QUIT CHROME UNTIL YOU HAVE WATCHED THE VIDEO BELOW.  IF YOU QUIT MAC GOOGLE CHROME IT WILL BACKUP YOUR BOOKMARKS WITH THE MISSING FOLDER AND IT WILL BE GONE FOR EVER.  IF YOU HAVEN'T QUIT CHROME THERE IS STILL A CHANCE TO FIX IT, JUST OPEN ANOTHER TAB TO WORK IN.

IF YOU OPEN SAFARI WHILST CHROME IS OPEN YOU MAY ALSO GET THE SAFARI CHROME ERROR FOR WHICH A FIX IS LISTED ON THIS BLOG.


Whilst not paying attention I accidentally deleted a useful bookmarks folder from my Apple Mac Google Chrome, I wasn't concerned just a quick 15 second mouse click would solve it, or so I thought.

However, if like me you thought you could just go to the edit menu and select UNDO to get it back then alas we are wrong.  As with a lot of todays software, the software engineers seem to have spent so much time on the fancy things whilst removing the basic that actually make sense (sorry old software engineer rant ;-) LOL.

So things were much more complicated, tedious and time consuming.  Is it just me or are others getting fed up with typing in a search to Google etc which returns hundreds or thousands of alleged results only to discover they are sites that list other sites, that list other sites, that may or usually haven't got a solution.

Also, when I think I've found a solution, quite often I discover the solution or video they present is missing some vital steps or actions which the developer must have done to get a solution, thats assuming they did indeed find a solution.  I've had a few moans that my videos are too long winded, that I should edit a lot more, but as a trainer and lecturer I have always believed in showing people how to do things, warts and all.

As describing some of the actions for getting your bookmarks back from Mac Google Chrome, would be confusing or misunderstood I decided to make a new video.

Below is the YouTube video of how I got back my deleted bookmarks folder, step by step so hopefully you can do the same.

Just don't quit Google Chrome until you've backed up the 'bookmarks.bak' file.

If you find this useful please give it the thumbs up and feel free to share it with other Mac Support Sites.

fixed1t How To Submit Blogger Blog Web Pages To Bing Webmaster Search Engine

I've been doing quite a bit of work on my diabetesmentor Blogger Blog over the past few weeks and went to check out how it was showing up on the Bing search engine.  There was absolutely nothing to be found.  So after some investigation I discovered that I needed to create an account on Bing Webmaster and then to submit my:

diabetesmentor

blog URL and sitemap to Bing.

Not quite as simple as it sounds, so after much head scratching and searching I found the right information and have put together another simple video to show people how to do it.

Here's the link to the youtube video

fixing Mac Adobe Creative Suite White Registration Window Lock Up Error

It always happens, just when you think you've got the handle on things and you decide to do that quick 10 minute job, then have an early night, you discover things have broken.  LOL,  Such as it was a couple of nights ago.  And did I do the sensible thing and 'go to bed' nope, in the words of Conan Doyle voiced by Sherlock Holmes, "the game is afoot".

I was about to put a couple of lines on my fixed1t website, I hit the button and rather than Dreamweaver springing into life, a blank white pane appears and all the menus were locked up, the only exit from this was a forced exit.

I searched the adobe site, and used their software to reset the licensing, but to no effect. I even deleted all of the software and re-installed it twice to no effect. I also looked at the package trace and the Activity monitor.  I then installed dreamweaver an older machine, and realised the window form that was opening blank was the online registration form.  So after further deliberation and testing, I have created the following Youtube video showing people how to fix and avoid the problem.

Fixing iTunes 45054 Part 2 - What To Do If The Shared Folder Already Exists?

Hi,

I'm really happy that my itunes fix is helping so many of you.  I've received some comments to a posting on the Apple Community from those who have looked for and found the Shared folder and are a little stuck as what to do.

If the folder already exists then skip the mkdir step:

Go straight to the chmod section:

To make the folder fully accessible your use the Unix command  chmod  to and set it to the folders permissions and privileges to 1777 (if your running Mac OS 10.6 as I am here).  If your running Mac OS 10.5 use the code 777)  These codes give the shared folder a kind of 'Universal Donor' status so it can be used by other programs and processes, sort of permissions to all.

So at the Terminal Prompt now type:

sudo chmod 1777 /Users/Shared

Then try to start iTunes, it really should work.  If it doesn't use the disk Utilities to repair your permissions and then restart your machine a try again.

Even a few dollars really helps and we all know how expensive it is to call an expert in.  But if you don't wish to donate thats fine but it would useful if you could give the fix a thumbs up and pop back to leave a message.

Fixing iTunes You do not have enough access privileges for this operation Error - 45054

Hi,
One of my fixed1t software users did an update which included iTunes with a view to moving to Mavericks.  He then went to open iTunes to test it out but it totally refused to work and displayed the following dialogue:

You do not have enough access privileges for this operation

Clicking OK then brought up the following Dialogue:

An unknown error occurred (-45054)

He asked if I could kindly take a look into it and I have 'Another fixed1t Software Solution.

Looking at the relevant iTunes files and associated files and folders I spotted that the Users folder was missing an innocuous System Folder named Shared that needs to be present in the Users Folder.

Screen capture of Users folder - No Shared folder is present

Here is the youtube video I created to enable me to fix this problem, I hope it helps you.

Once you've complete the instruction in the video and go  back to the Applications Folder and open iTunes it should now spring back into life with the errors gone, it worked for me.

As with all system fixes, it would be advisable to logout and log back in again to see if it still works.  If it doesn't rebuild and fix the disc permissions.

I'll do another blog about that shortly.
