How do i get a copy of IDVD and will it work with final cut pro x.

I have a new powerbook. I've purchased final cut pro x because express is no longer available. My Mac didn't come with iDVD and I can't find a suitable dvd authoring tool. Please... some suggestions for DVD authoring or how to get a copy of iDVD and will it even work with FCPx.

Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge. (There are no realistic substitutes for iDVD.)

If you are still within your 15 day return period, nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick. You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.
If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11 (includes iDVD) on disk.
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

How do I get rid of audio pops and clicks between clips in Final Cut Pro X?

Is there a layman, non-professional way to do this? These are just video files... i don't know anything about formats of different files and all that, but i read in other posts that the files should be "uncompressed 48k something something", but i dont even know how to convert the audio(From video) that's already on my timeline to this format

Your clicks probably are related to the fact that you are using the whole clip, leaving no "handles". Handles are extra portions of a clip, before and after the portion you use in your timeline.
The clicks are probably caused by the camera. You are using whole clips (that is why you get the warning when trying Cmd-T, "there is no extra media..."), so you are starting and ending right where the camera did.
If possible, trim a little bit at the end and start of each clip. Select just the edge of the clip (not the whole clip) and drag a little bit to shorten it. Just a few frames might be enough.
For the future, you should remember to let the camera capture a little more than you will actually use - so that you can have those "handles". See the picture.

What is the best dvd burning program with a nice menu like idvd that works with Final cut pro

What is the best dvd burning program with a nice menu like idvd that works with Final cut pro, I am wanting to burn mainly wedding dvds but also sports and other things we used to use idvd but then upgraded our computers and now we dont have it. idvd was the only thing i could find that worked.
Thanks

There is no real substitute for iDVD.
Why is there no iDVD on my new Mac? How do I get it and how do I install it?

To burn a DVD with iDVD from the latest version of iMovie, you have to export the movie using the Export button and select 480p as the size. Open iDVD and start a new project, then drag that exported movie file into the iDVD menu window, avoiding any drop zones you see.

Getting comcast cable/internet...Will it work with my Macbook Pro?

We are getting Comcast tomorrow...we currently have AT&T internet and my Mac is always getting kicked off my internet, onto a "belkin54g" that barely works. This is getting really annoying, but tomorrow we are getting the comcast internet/cable thingy. So is comcast going to work with my laptop O.K.? or will we have trouble with that too? because I am really tired of being kicked offline all the time. Thanks!

It sounds like you're having problems with your router, not with your ISP. If that's the case, and you don't replace the router, you'll probably continue to have the same problems.

How Can I get my JayBird Freedom Bluetooth Earbud Headset to Work with my MacBook Pro-Retina

I have a 1st gen iPad and a relatively new MacBook Pro 15 Retina. As well, I also have a Jaybird Freedom Bluetooth Earbud Headset (Mic/Stereo Speakers). Finally, I have a Droid X (I'll explain in a minute why I mention this).
My BT Earbuds can pair with my iPad and my Droid X just fine. As a matter of fact, it can bind with my iPad for audio, and my Droid X for phone audio at the same time. However, even when the Droid X and the iPad BT is disabled (on both), my MacBook Pro will not work with the Bluetooth earbuds. I am able to pair them (it shows as a Jaybird Freed Headset, and shows that it can be used as an audio output/input device), but when I try to use the earbuds for audio, it almost hangs up for a few moments, then finally fails and reports that "there was an errr connecting to your audio device.." with the "stop using headset" as my only option.
My MacBook Pro Gen 2 with Snow Leopard used to be able to pair with this headset. I'm not sure if it is the OS or the newew generation laptop. I have seen a few other threads on this, but no fixes that work for me.

Just posted a problem I'm having connecting my Jaybird Freedom and iPhone5 (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4716045). The Jaybirds connected fine with an iPhone4s and another (forgotten) device so I don't think the problem lies with the Jaybird. I'd be interested if you hear differently.

How do I get my plug ins (Nik and Topaz) to work on Photoshop Creative Cloud? [was:Plug ins?]

How do I get my plug ins (Nik and Topaz) to work on Photoshop Creative Cloud?

Contact the makers of your third party plugins and see if they have updates that work correctly with Photoshop CC 2014.
Also, make sure you ran the installers for the plugins instead of just copying them, since you may be missing necessary support files for the plugins.

Hi,
1. Make sure you have the camera connected via Firewire (i link)
2. The Camera is turned to "play" and, if you are capturing HDV, in the camera menu, it is set to i link "OFF"

You cannot use a SIM card on a carrier locaked phone, other than a sim from the carrier the phone is locked to. You must first get the carrier it is locked to, to unlock your phone. Apple does not unlock phones.

HT1515 How do i get my old AirPort Express (7years old) to work with my new Time Capsule?

How do i get my old AirPort Express (7years old) to work with my new Time Capsule?

Does anyone at Apple have help for this sort of question - I too have an old printer (HP LaserJet 5MP) that I would like to keep using on my Mac. (Mac OSX 10.6.8).
I got it working by getting a USB cord that connects to it - but every once in a while it just stops working for weeks. The mac 'sees' it and it sends the data because the printer lights start blinking but then it just doesn't do anything. Is there no one who can tell me (and raterada) how to get some new life into these old printers. I would rather not add this (and a new toner cart) to the landfill just yet. . .

Does anyone know how to change .mov to a supported file extension (and what extension would you suggest)? .mov works on Apperture 3.0 so I thought it would work on Final Cut Pro X....

Does anyone know how to easily change a .mov file extension to one of the accepted Final Cut Pro X extensions? I thought since .mov worked in Aperture 3.0 it should work on FCP X. Thanks

Hi Tom
Thanks
I am now doing some 1 minute import tests from various Q/T's
They are all in the same place on an External 1 TB Western Digital - connected by Firewire 800
I have just imported some 1 minute tests from other Q/T 's and they have imported Ok - quickly imported and transcoded etc fine and quickly.
Using your suggested methd of getting the details using Quicktime 7 Movie Inspector I can see NO DIFFERENCE in the formats! In fact with four of these files open I can click on each in turn and see the Inspector details for each in turn - and only the name, size etc changes - not the format!
I am really upset and confused by this as I have been trying for the last four days to get these imported. I realise that this is small potatoes to those who are having problems with even FCP 7 Files! But, these are q/t's of 30 hours worth of unique reserahc material I shot in Africa. I have made several programmes from this material before (one even shown on Discovery!) I WAS hoping that I could use the new and all singing FCPX to make some new programmes for teaching purposes
But, how can I do that if only some will import? As I posted elsehwre - i get the message "No importable files"
I am REALLY grateful for your expertise and advice here
thanks
Alan
PS I am using Lion

How to replace audio on a music video with final cut pro x

How do I replace low quality audio on a music video to a higher better quality audio with final cut pro x?
I have the new audio on cd which I can rip and replace the original audio.
Some audio and music videos are not of same length, In cases like this how do I sync video to the newly replaced audio?
Is there any tutorial, link or where to look for this in the manual?
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Providing you don't need the video synced or cut to a beat, all you need to do is place your music in the primary storyline
Connect your video above.
While your video is connected, hit CMD+R on your keyboard and stretch the video to the length of the music
If you were to cut the video to a beat, simply add markers on your music track, then connect and trim clips to your markers.

I can't get my blade tool to work in Final Cut Pro X 10.0.7

I can't get my blade tool to work in Final Cut Pro X 10.0.7. I magnify the clip to the highest zoom and when I select the blade tool, I see the icon but when I click on the clip to chop it.....nothing. The blade turns red and nothing happens. Please help.

If you are in fact in the active project window, try command B at the location of the skimmer and see whether it makes the edit.
