I can not export photos onto DVD. After I click export, close iPhoto, click Finder, At this point I can't find the file to burn. (copy to be used on Windows) Sorry for the lame question....new to mac

So it sounds like you are trying to burn a DVD with photos on it so the photos can be either transferred to or displayed on a Windows PC, is that correct?
For the purposes of this I am going to assume you are using iPhoto '11.
Gather the photos you want to burn to DVD in one album in iPhoto. This is not absolutely necessary but it sure makes things easier for me.
Select that album, then go to the File menu and select Export...
In the dialog that shows up, select the File Export tab. Select the setting you want to use for export. Click the Export button.
Another dialog will show up. Set the location to Desktop and click the New Folder button. Name the folder something nice and descriptive and click the Create button.
Click the OK button. Quit iPhoto as the rest of this work will be done in the Finder.
You will now have a folder on your desktop with that nice descriptive name. Find it and select it. Go to the File menu and from it select Burn "Descriptive folder name" to Disc...
Insert a blank DVD when prompted.
Let the finder complete the work and eject the disc afterwards.
That's it. Best of luck.

  • I was using Live Quartz on my MBP to stamp name/date on photos... those photos onto DVDs or USBs for trade magazines to use

    the end result was I would have one photo of a cow labeled  right next to the same photo unlabeled for a catalogue. I'd burn those photos onto DVDs or USBs for trade magazines to use in their publications. Now all of the sudden I can't do it.  Sent an email to LiveQuartz but haven't heard back.   What's another simple way I can do this-- one or two steps max?  Already tried Preview, but it won't keep the duplicate --- it annotates the original .

    Check the LiveQuartz support forums - http://livequartz.7.forumer.com/.

  • Burning photos onto dvd, loses the original date and time of photo

    I'm trying to burn some photos onto dvd, but it marks all the files 'created date' and 'modified date' as today, rather than keeping the original date and time that the picture was taken. Is there a way around this?

    Looks like that error is associated with bad or incompatible media. See this thread:

  • TS2446 What do you do if you get a new apple device but can't remember the security questions?

    What do you do if you get a new apple device but can't remember the security questions?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    How can I reset my security question and I cannot create a new account because I have £18 on the account that I can't remember the security questions to

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them : go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account, then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use, or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

    That means the computer cannot find the operating system. Either the hard drive has a physical problem or is corrupted. Do you have the computer's original system CDs or DVDs? You may need them to get through this.
    Notebook computer drives are not as robust as the larger drives used in desktop computers. If your G4 can run OS9, it's pretty old, and the drive may have simply worn out.

    As you have 10.5.8 you need to upgrade to at least 10.6.6 to get the App Store as this was the 1st version it came with.
    A workaround is to get a friend who has 10.6.6 or better to download Lion for you without installing it. You can create an App Store account on the friend's computer I think to do this. Copy the Lion installer from that computer to a USB stick or burn it to DVD and you should be able to install it on your own computer, I think. You might have to create an empty partition on your own computer first for Lion installation as I'm not sure that it will install over Leopard.

    How can I synch the Address Book on my Mac to the Contacts on my iPad (or, can I setup Address Book on my iPad?)

    Selected under the Info tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes.
    With such a question, you should spend some time with the user guide.

  • HT1296 I have the original iPhone and I can't sync the address book from my Mac to the iPhone. What should be the problem and can I sync?

    I have the original iPhone and I can't sync the address book from my Mac to the iPhone. What should be the problem and can I sync?

    Thanks a lot for the answer. I'm so upset, have no even one contact on my phone. I has to do with the moving to iCloud from MobileMe.
    I did exactly what you wrote, and when trying to click the vcf file on the iPhone the screen freezing, and then after few long seconds it goes alon to home.
    So I tried less contacts in a Vcard, and i'm dividing my address book, doing little by little and it work.
    Thank you so much.
    I still dont get why the sync with my computer address book is not working.
    And why when I moved to icloud all the photos I had next to the contacts are disappered.
    I had my iPad, which it still, I did not move from MobileMe to iCloud and all the photos are there!
    Anything I can do to use the iCloud on the iPad as well and update the iCloud with the photos?

  • Does anyone know how I can create "facing pages" in new Pages? I could do it in Pages 09, but can't find the option in new Pages.

    Does anyone know how I can create "facing pages" in new Pages? I could do it in Pages 09 but can't find the option in new Pages. I have documents created in Pages 09 and want to do some further work on them, but am now using new pages.

    There were 100+ features that didn't make it into the "new & improved, rewritten from the ground up” Pages 5. Some have returned with the updates & there are some new features that are worthwhile, but there are still 90+ features missing. Leave feedback for the Pages team using the link in the Pages menu and review & rate the new versions in the Mac App Store.
    If you previously had iWork '09, those apps are still in your Applications folder in a folder named iWork '09. You can continue to use them to get things done.

  • If i bought a macbook pro on 4 juin,can i get the upgrade of new max os lion free?

    if i bought a macbook pro on 4 juin,can i get the upgrade of new max os lion free?
    i buy it directly from the apple store.

    Might be a discount voucher near-term, to match up with past programs.  That would positively scream "epic win" in addition to being a really nice gesture by Apple.  But this is an educated guess.
    We still have to find out how 10.4 and 10.5 holdouts from late '06-mid '09 (and y'all know who y'all are, ladies and gents) are going to get Lion based on the only system requirement of a 64-bit CPU.  I suspect a Mac Box Set refresh would be in order for this task. 
    Also: how would one reinstall Lion "clean" if, say, the hard disk flips out or one just doesn't want excess baggage gumming up his machine?   Recovery partitions assume the worst won't happen.
    Unfortunately, this also leaves the earlier '06 Macs on life support and effectively kills off all prior Macs with PowerPC chips, so to anybody with a Core Duo or G-series chip, Apple wants you upgrading hardware--NOW!
