Applications :: Export From IMovie 09 To IDVD Not Rendering Correctly?

Jul 12, 2010

I have a 38 minute iMovie 09 video that I exported to iDVD. It stutters about a minute in to the movie. I have done the following:

1. exported a shorter version (1:48) into iDVD. The same thing happened.

2. exported this shorter version into quick time. Worked just fine. Don't know how to make a DVD that I can watch on a player from this though.

3. tried to export this shorter version to youtube. It said that "youtube reported an error"

OS X :: IMac Waking From Sleep During Night - Is It Normal

Dec 19, 2009

Newbie here, It has just come to my attention that my 27" iMac wakes up during the night. It is always put to sleep at night rather than turned off. My parents are staying for the weekend & sleeping in the same room as the imac, & mentioned this morning that screen turned on a couple of times during the night. I looked at the time machine back ups & found it had made 2 during the night.

Mac Pro :: Fan Runs Faster After Sleep But Then Slows To Normal?

Apr 21, 2012

I've usually in all my year with Mac not had my drives sleep. I note now that when my drives awake one of the fans is spinning faster than normal. Just a little nothing crazy and then it slows to normal.  

Is this the sound of a problem fan or something on my motherboard or something?  

Should I do a PRAM reset? or whatever it's called these days? Running OSX 1.6.8

Mac Pro 3.0 GHz Quad-Core, iPad WiFi/3G, iPhone4, Mac OS X (10.6.8), 30" HP Display, 22" Cinema Display

IMac (Intel) :: Makes Normal Startup After Had Been Put Into Sleep

Jun 24, 2014

iMac makes normal startup after had been put into sleep..One strange behaviour can be observed with iMac Late 2013.At the end of day the user puts the mac into sleep.On next day pushing the power button is necessary to activate the mac.

The main point is that iMac starts up as it was shut down at the previous day(this is conclusion based on screens shown after mac activation). 

User expectation is, that on next day when activating it the mac show screens as it was leaving sleep instead of showing screens typical for normal startup (after hard power down).

MacBook Air :: Airport Connection/Sleep Versus Sleep Display?

Apr 9, 2008

I leave my Air on pretty much all the time, and put it to sleep while moving around etc. Sleeping it disconnect the Airport connection - which if very annoying. At a desk I've just been dimming the display all the way off in order to keep my connection.

However, I recently noticed that by setting a "sleep display" hot corner, my network connection is maintained.

I have 2 questions:
1) Is sleep display equivalent (functionally) to simply dimming the display all the way down?
2) Is there a way to either set up a shortcut to sleep the display (other than a hot corner) and/or set it so that only the DISPLAY sleeps after 'x' minutes?

MacBook Pro :: After Display Sleep Or Computer Sleep On / Login Not On Boot Up

Dec 11, 2014

I have a macbook pro 13" early 2011 and I'm se as shown in the pictures (since i upgraded to os x yosemite) . It happens after display sleep or computer sleep on login not on boot up .I've noticed that i run out of ram when the problem appears (only 15MB RAM available out of 4GB), though i doesn't happen every time . I've talked to service and told me its either motherboard replacement or because the ram isn't enough (gpu shares with main ram) so maybe i should try upgrading ram. URL....

MacBook Pro :: Save To Have Display Sleep But No Computer Sleep?

Jul 12, 2009

I have torrents going all the time. If the computer goes to sleep, the internet disconnects, so they stop. Display sleep wouldn't disconnect though. Is it OK to have computer sleep on "never" but keep display on "15 minutes"? I don't usually even leave the computer on overnight.

Mac :: MacBook Pro New 2010 Display Stuck In Sleep - High Resolution Anti Glare Display

Apr 26, 2010

My brand new 15 inch MacBook Pro was working fine for a week. Today the display went to sleep and when I tried to wake it, it remained dark, items barely visible. I could see the display brightness meter changing, but the brightness did not. Restarting didn't help. Called Apple and they're going to replace the computer. Has this happened to anybody else? Note: I have the hi-res anti-glare display.

MacBook :: Putting Display To Sleep On New With Retina Display?

Jun 16, 2012

I'm used to using the keystrokes control-shift-eject to put the display to sleep without activating the screensaver or putting the whole computer to sleep. 

Since the new Macbook Pro with Retina Display lacks an eject key, the best I have been able to do is set a hot corner. I don't like this as much -- especially since it is possible to trigger the hot corner without intending to.

ITunes :: Change Playback Display From Audio Levels To Normal?

Mar 24, 2012

when I'm playing something in iTunes, in the small window centered over the Library, I now get an audio level bar display instead of what I would call the normal, default display (shows the item being played, artist, title and all that, plus a progress bar showing where you are in the piece).  I can't find a thing about this online elsewhere so far, and have no idea what the iTunes nomenclature for this function or the small centered window above the Library.

OS X :: MBP Won't Automatically Sleep Display Or Go To Sleep?

May 8, 2010

I have a late 2008 15" MBP, and I often leave it playing videos while I go to sleep. Lately, it's stopped sleeping the display and/or going to sleep (depending on whether something's downloading in the background) after the video is finished, which is quite annoying as the screensaver's glare normally wakes me up in the middle of the night (and it's probably not too good for the display either).

Before a few weeks ago, it would quite happily sleep the display a few minutes after the video (in Front Row or otherwise) finished playing, but it's now consistently ignoring the sleep and display sleep settings (which are all correct). I even set the display sleep timer to 1 minute, waited without anything happening in the background, but nothing happens.

Anyone have any idea how to get the timers to work again?

Applications :: Alternative To IDVD Or Different IDVD Themes?

Dec 26, 2010

I couldn't find what I was looking for in MRoogle.

The thing I hate about iDVD (besides it taking so long to burn video DVDs on Mac) is that the themes are more than I need and take up valuable disc space.

1. Are there any iDVD themes that are simply a menu...no music, no video clip previews, no sappy backgrounds, etc?

2. Is there a free (or cheap) alternative to iDVD excluding Toast?

3. I'd be using .mov or .mp4 as my source video.

4. I have iDVD 7.0.4 and am using Snow Leopard. I really don't want to pay for iLife 11 as I never use Garage Band or iPhoto. iMovie kinda sucks too.

IMac :: 27" IMac Display - Is This Normal For Led Displays?

Nov 21, 2009

This is my first led-backlit display and the first big glossy display I have used. First of all, the display is amazing because of how accurate it is and I love using it. Then to the question:The display is sort of alive, stick with me i'll try to explain it as best as I can, english is not my native language
It kinda makes this very little brightness pumping that old crt tv's and monitors did. Same kind of effect but in a lot smaller effect, but you can sorta notice it's there. I have had none of those display image disappearance/flicker problems at all, display is working very well but I'm wondering if this kind of effect is normal with LED displays and does the glossy display enhance it/let more through? I'm thinking this might add to eye strain in long use but not sure(just like crt's did).

OS X :: How To Sleep Only The Primary Display

Aug 30, 2010

I use my Macbook + Boxee to watch videos via a projector as my secondary display, but when I'm watching videos the bright macbook screen can be distracting next to my projected display. I'd naturally 'sleep' my display (I even have that function set as one of my 'hot corners') but if I do this then the secondary display, i.e. the projector, also loses picture. I'm therefore left with the options of dimming the brightness of the macbook's screen right down to its lowest setting (which seems to be 'off') or shutting the macbook lid, which naturally causes the whole system to sleep unless I use one of those reportedly dodgy kernel-hacking apps like InsomniaX.

OS X :: Display Sleep Vs Screen Saver

Aug 25, 2010

So I've bee tinkering with my energy preferences in order to get the best battery life I can, I've turned down the brightness to 1, my keyboard back light, to 1 (when I'm watching a movie in a dark room) and I've set it as the 'better battery' option. But now i'm a bit confused. What's the point in the screensaver if you can set your display to sleep (which i'm sure would save more energy). Is it just to look pretty?
How does everyone have their notebooks set-up to get the most out of their battery? Lastly, the 'better battery' option in energy preferences, does this do anything apart from adjust the display/computer sleep? I read that it reduces processor power hence the 'better performance' option.

MacBook Pro :: Display Will Not Sleep In My System?

Apr 27, 2010

I have set my display to sleep after 10 minutes of inactivity (see screen shot). This has worked up no problems for the life of my MBP (1 year). Now, all of a sudden the display won't sleep. The display remains on, and does not dim either. Restarting the computer causes this feature to function again...then it starts to not sleep after a a few hours (or so).

Mac Mini :: Display Won't Come Back From Sleep?

Aug 20, 2010

About a year ago, I convinced my mom to replace her old Flat Screen iMac G4 for a Mac Mini. We decided to buy a 23" HANNSpree LCD display, connected via Mini DisplayPort to VGA. Since then, my mom has often experienced the same issue: It is often unresponsive to waking from sleep, and sometimes it takes *ages* to come back to life, especially after the computer has fallen asleep for a long time (overnight).Sometimes, though I know the mini is awake, the display says that it cannot detect a signal coming from the mini.

Mac Pro :: Display Does Not Wake From Sleep Or Reboot

Feb 11, 2012

I have an Early 2008 Mac Pro with an ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT graphics card.  Yesterday I could not get the display to wake from sleep in the morning, and even after a reboot I had nothing to look at.  Then I (eventually) moved the card to another PCI Express slot and everything worked!  Then after a reboot no video again. I moved the card back to slot one and it worked!  Rebooted again, no display.  Move card again, everything is fine.

MacBook Pro :: Display Sleep With Screen Saver?

Sep 22, 2010

I wanted to use a screen saver which is a cool clock since I do not have any alarm clock or anything in my room, and being that my MBP is always on, why not make it a clock when im not using it? I was wondering if it would be detrimental to my screen if I never let the display sleep and leave the black and white clock screen saver on all the time? Would it really make THAT much of a difference to the life of my screen?
