Hi all

Help appreciated with this. I do a two hour music podcast (http://www.whatyouwantradio.com also available at http://soundcloud.com/whatyouwant-radio) which is created in GarageBand and then exported to iWeb for uploading to my website. I've been running this, with few problems, since April 2009.

Recently the GarageBand podcast has problems exporting to iWeb. It's random, and I seem to have been able to bypass it by changing the filename slightly, or adjusting the quality at which it is exported (I like to export at 320mps for best quality - big files but no complaints from the 100 or so listeners. Could be more - who knows as I can't get stats from iTunes. But I digress). However, the most recent podcast, which is already available on SoundCloud, just won't export. It goes through the motions (mixdown etc.) but nothing appears on iWeb on the other side. No error message, nothing. I know that memory has also been an issue in the past but there over 5GB to spare. HOWEVER - I noted that last night, following 2-3 failed exports this amount had dropped down. This morning I found what looks to be the failed exports in a recovered files folder in the trash (screenshot available). I therefore guessing that the .band file is going somewhere, but I dunno what is happening.

I'd really be grateful for some help on this, I'm at a bit of a loss - no error message, no clue. As I say, this podcast has been going for nearly three years and it's only recently I've had this problem.

Cheers!
