OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: How To Turn Off The Sound File Auto-play

Mar 18, 2012

Is it possible to turn off the feature whereby OSX presents me with a play button in the middle of a sound file? Everytime I want to select a sound file to move or delete it, I move the mouse over the file, click, and the silly thing starts to play. Okay, I know I can click outside the play button, but it is an extra bother to have to precisely position my mouse to avoid playing the file, a bother I can do without.

Applications :: OS X Mounts Ext3 File System?

Nov 2, 2003

I'm a soon-to-be switcher (*knock on wood*) and trying to plan how I'm going to migrate a bunch of data from my old Linux box to a new PowerBook. I'm thinking of buying an external drive case for my IDE drive, slurping everything off of there, then reformatting it to use as a backup drive. Which brings up my question. I've searched and I can't for the life of my figure out whether or not OS X will mount an ext3 file system. I can't see why it wouldn't, given the FreeBSD core, but who knows.

OS X :: Burning A Disc From IDVD?

Oct 28, 2010

I have created a DVD slideshow in iDVD but when I burn it to disc the quality of the images is unacceptable. I have tried different solutions from forums but the results with each thing I try don't resolve the problem.

I have created it in iMovie, Share as a quicktime movie onto my desktop, then moved this into iDVD but the results are still poor. I have also tried burning it through Roxio Toast, and a couple of other disc burning programmes. I have tried it with the images as jpeg's and tiff's on different resolutions, and I have made sure the ken burns effect is off.

Software :: Idvd 5 Won't Burn Disc?

Aug 2, 2005

I set up iDVD to burn a disc of my movie; it did so just fine. I saved the set up, then tried to reburn additional DVDs. It opened ok, but refused to burn anything-when it got to the "Burn" stage, it would display "recording finished" then lock up.

Are there some preferences I can trash on this, or what?

MacBook Pro :: Can't Burn IDVD To Disc

May 29, 2012

Created iDVD with slideshow and music on my 5 yr old MBP.Tried to burn it to a Staples -R DVD disc.It appears to be burning for about 35 minutes, then with one minute left, it stops and ejects the disc.No error message. I saved the file as a Disc Image and was able to view it with the DVD player on my MBP.However, when I went to burn it to the disc, I got this message:"The disc can't be burned, because the device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media."

Applications :: Disk Burned With IDVD - Won't Play

Nov 2, 2009

Tried but couldn't find an answer to this exact question. Here's the situation: I created a movie project in iMovie, then burned it to a DVD using iDVD. The burned DVD plays in my iMac but will not play in a DVD player. I get a Cannot play this type of disk error message. I used a DVD-R disk (Memorex). I can provide more information if needed to figure this out, but is there a simple answer as to why this would happen? The DVD player says it plays DVD-R disks. The disk works in my computer. Any ideas from the experts?

Applications :: Is IDVD Able To Keep 16:9 Menu And Play 4:3 Video?

Nov 24, 2009

Is this possible? One of the apple techs told me no. I would have to change the menu to 4:3. I have 20 year old videos that I want to play in 4:3 because anytime it stretches the top gets cut down pretty bad. Yet I would love to keep the 16:9 menu screen (theme).

Another question what is best resolution to use when sending old movies (4:3 poor quality) from iMovie to iDVD? Medium? or Large?

What sucks is when I preview my video in iDVD everything looks right. Menu is 16:9 and when it plays the videos it's 4:3 ( for some reason with grey sidebars instead of black). It's just when I burn it to dvd and play on home widescreen tvs when the problems start. The menu is chopped off on a side and the videos are being stretched.

Applications :: IDVD Main Meun Not Play Music?

Dec 18, 2010

I am making a DVD using iDVD and I am able to get music to play in the scene selections but for some reason I cannot get any music to play on the Main Menu. I have dragged and dropped music onto the main menu and when I hit the "inspector" it shows that the song I chose is indeed in there with the proper duration time and everything but the music won't play.... The music that I drag onto the scenes does play but just not on the main menu.

Interestingly enough, when I open an old iDVD project, it will play music on the main menu.

Applications :: Using Mov Files In IDVD, No Sound And No Video Play After Burn?

Apr 1, 2009

I have 12 Videos in .mov format that I saved from .wmv format using quicktime and flip4mac. I have also tried saving them as AVI and same result.

Here's the problem, when I put them into iDVD and save as disk image to check, the videos are there, but no sound. I tried also burning them to DVD, using a maxell DVD-R 16x, and all the will come up on the dvd is the title menu. Movies will not play on my macbook or in the dvd player on TV. I tried using the .avi format but there still was no sound, and the movies were really choppy.

if i try to use iMovie, it will not even import these .mov files (doesn't let me click on them to import)

is there another format i need to export to, or change some setting to get the sound in my project, and get the movies to play have i burn them?

All the movies are approx 1hr long except one, and I was using the best performance setting putting 2 movies per dvd.

OS X :: Using IDVD And Dmg File?

Jul 16, 2009

I read where it is good to save an iDVD project as a .dmg file so that burning it again later will be faster. I have done that with a project. Now I want to burn more copies, and just wanted to ask how to do this. Do I open iDVD and burn it from there? Or can I use Toast? If so, what setting? Or can I just drag the .dmg file onto a mounted DVD? I will want it to play on a standard DVD player, and for PC users to have access to the photo files that are included. It works fine that way when I have just used iDVD to burn it.

Applications :: Using IDVD File Sizes?

Apr 14, 2009

Whenever I try to write an .avi (or .mov) movie with iDVd onto DVD, it says: 'content reach maximum duration, pls remove some content' for movies over 700MB. That's without adding chapter markers etc...

I've tried using MPeg Streamclip and Prism to convert them to smaller sizes, but without any luck, they just come out bigger.

Applications :: Why Does A 2GB Video File Not Fit On An IDVD Project

Sep 26, 2010

I have a 2GB m4v file that I wanted to use iDVD to create a movie for. But even taking it off of Best Performance and instead using High Quality, the movie is too large to be burned. It's showing it as a 4.81 GB project.

I'll admit my ignorance here...what gives? How does a 2GB file grow that large when being encoded as a DVD?

OS X Mavericks :: Cannot Play CD Or DVD On Disc Drive?

Jul 1, 2014

It is Macbook pro 13-inch with 4GB 1333MHz DDR3, OS X 10.9.4 (13E28), bought in late 2011. Today I have some DVD and CD of my coursebook and want to play it on my Macbook pro, but I could not even insert it into the drive first. Then I go to System Preference and click on CD&DVD Player. It was inserted, and it spinned and rejected. I wonder what happened? Is it OS update issue? Or Hardware issue?  

PS: It was once dropped from a learning table in my class. I am curious if that is the reason I cannot play CD or DVD

Is it possible to AUTO PRINT when opening a PDF with a specific file name?

I ask this as I always have to print invoices that are PDF's for my business that are saved as file name

Is it possible to automate the system so whenever I open a PDF file titled orders.pdf that it prints everything on the pdf without me having to click print?

Just thought it might shave of a little bit of time each day and teach me something new on my iMac.
