iMovie error 49 fix: The local Backup disable
The reason for the error message "-49" is the so-called "Mobile Backup" of Apple's backup software Time Machine. As soon as you disable the function, you can export with "iMovie" back to error-free Videos. Note, however, that all of your local Time Machine Backups are deleted.
- Start the "Terminal". Straightforward for this to work, for example, through the Dock, where you open your "programs" and then "utilities".
- The following command disables the local Backup: "sudo tmutil disable local". A reboot completes the process.
- With "sudo tmutil enable local", you can enable the backup service.
Tip: As a Backup Alternative for MacOS-User is for 30 days free "Carbon Copy Cloner".
