The org-export to beamer gives the following error when the first lines include title and author info.
#+TITLE: Presentation Title
#+AUTHOR: Name
"Wrong type argument: listp, #("Name" 0 4(:parent (#0)))"
I have used this format many times and don't know why this error is occurring now. Has there been a change in org-export engine? I have reinstalled org-mode(Version 8.3.1) and tried other ways of specifying author and title as in following answers link1
#+BIND: org-latex-title-command "\\title{De leerplandoelstellingen}\n\\date[mei 2014]{9 mei 2014}\n\\maketitle"
and adding the following to the init file as suggested here.
(eval-after-load "ox-latex"
;; update the list of LaTeX classes and associated header (encoding, etc.)
;; and structure
'(add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
`("beamer"
,(concat "\\documentclass[presentation]{beamer}\n"
"[DEFAULT-PACKAGES]"
"[PACKAGES]"
"[EXTRA]\n")
("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")
("\\subsection{%s}" . "\\subsection*{%s}")
("\\subsubsection{%s}" . "\\subsubsection*{%s}"))))
Any solutions? Thanks.

and try to export again. And while you are waiting for an answer: one of the likely causes of this error is that you have compiled new version of Org together with the bits of the old one, so cleaning up Org versions and recompiling the latest one you have might help.\begin{document}
. The reason I'm asking for this is because it should contain\author[]{...}
text where the author would be normally specified. If that doesn't happen for whatever reason you could probably add that to the export template. For the LaTeX syntax to do it see mirrors.ircam.fr/pub/CTAN/macros/latex/contrib/beamer/doc/… page 93.
