Using the script step export field contents, I can not export the contents of a container field. Error message reads ...could not be created on this disk. use a different name, make more room on the disk or use a different disk. I know I have had this in years past, but I can not remember the fix for this. I found something about setting the fonts to .ttf, but I am on a mac running fmpa16. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi David,

Does it work if you leave the dialog open and manually select your Desktop, for example?  When you do it manually, what do you put in the Output File Path?

Thanks LaRetta. I tried that and it does work. So looks just like there was something wrong with my path. Seems to work for the desktop export now.

Any chance you also know why containers with an .m4a can't be scrubbed like container with a .mov? This is exporting field contents is just a work around for that problem.

Why not post your path?  Check here:  File Paths

No, sorry, hopefully others will know.

Are you including the file name in the path?

Are there spaces in the file name?

Or "/"s?

I solved this. I think there was something wrong with the name of the file that I was exporting.
