Movie Maker not importing JPGs

[chazdavis24]

Morning all,

 

Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem when importing a simple jpg into movie maker.

 

We can import videos fine, but when putting a jpg in it comes up with a very useful unspecified error.

 

We are using windows XP all up to date and the latest movie maker for XP.

 

I have tried setting permissions on the movie maker file/folder so users have more access, i have given the affected users a new profiles and its still not working.

 

Any ideas would be grateful.

Update:

 

I have been playing with this most of today, I have managed to get the import working so its not a movie maker corruption. I can import JPGs from a memory stick aka I:\ but i cant import from their 'my documents' which is redirected to their \\servername\intake10$\%useranme%\my documents.

 

They also have a mapped drive M:\ which mapps to the exact same path, and are able to import from there!

 

Any ideas or solutions to make the re-direction work???

 

Thanks in advance

Wish you luck and if you fix let me know! I have nearly the same thing on one of my schools netrworks (three out of four no problems) with MS Photostory, loads projects back up from a mapped drive fine but from the same location (but a redirected My Documents), gets permission errors! Saves fine to My Documents just cant open the projects up once initially saved.
