IDVD Does not Burn 2 or more Copies

For a few weeks not I have been having an issue with iDVD where it will burn a DVD (dual layer), eject it through the DVD burner and the diaglog is stuck on burning but says done. There is no prompt to insert another DVD. I do insert another one and nothing happens.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
David

I tried saving it to an image and if fails every time. Plus I heard that it won't burn correctly when doing a Dual Layer DVD?

It could be a iDVD preference issue.
Try the following:
1 - delete the iDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
     User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
     User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iDVD folder. 
Click to view full size
3 - launch iDVD and try again.

  • IDVD does not burn camera audio - does burn ITunes audio

    I have a Sony DCR-TRV460 video camera. The computer does not see my camera. I used an ADS Pyro A/V Link to get the movie from the camera to the computer. When I preview the movie in IMovie, I get the audio and video from the camera perfectly. When I move the movie to IDVD, I preview everything perfectly. When I burn the DVD I lose the audio from my camera. I have tried exporting the audio and that didn't work either. Any ideas on what I can do?

    To add to Sue's post, have you tried the Firewire connection (camcorder to computer via Firewire, nothing in-between)? If the computer doesn't recognize the camcorder doing this, then that is problem 1 that needs solved prior to trying another sequence. Be sure your camcorder is set to 16-bit audio, many are set at 12-bit by default. Once you get the computer to recognize the camcorder, export this sequence back to tape, then re-import from the new tape and try burning that and see what happens.

  • IDVD does not burn iMovie, blank disc

    iMovie is fine. I export to iDVD and everything is fine, make titles, etc.
    I burn and everything's ok, and the burn progresses fine, but the burn stops and spits out the disc seconds before it is complete.
    I put the disc back in and I get the "you have inserted a blank disc....." message.
    I'm using iLife '09, Maxell DVD-R discs (which have worked fine before) I scoured the internet and tried ALL suggestions I came across.
    Any ideas or help is appreciated.....

    Don't know why some fail so soon. But it does happen. Happened to me also a few years back. Did you happen to purchase an extended applecare warranty by any chance? If not apple normally covers these issues for the first 12 months (1 year). Nevertheless, Id give them a call anyway and feel free to keep us posted. I can tell you from experience that apple is normally very good about servicing their products (even those slightly out of warranty) so it is worth the call.
    If you don't get the results you want, then just post back and we'll provided additional recommendations or possible workarounds.

  • IDVD does not start

    With the launching of iDVD6, the loading of the topics the programe stop.
    I am obliged to force to leave (iDVD does not answer any more)
    Have you a sollution
    Thank you and excuse me for the bad language I am French

    Hi N
    iDVD takes a while to start up.
    How do you know that iDVD doesn't answer any more ? Using activity monitor ?
    Well Activity monitor isn't to rely on in all circumstances. When rendering in
    iMovie and coding in iDVD it indicates that either of them is not answering but
    they are running as normal as ever. Just wait.
    If iDVD doesn't start up the most common origin is that the user has installed
    new programs but not run "repair permissions" with Apple Util tool.
    As no:2 I would locate iDVD pref file and move it to desktop Then restart iDVD.
    Still not working: I would start a new account, logg-out of this-one and into
    the new one (it forces Mac OS to create several new pref files).
    Now it should run.
    What Mac are You using, processor, speed, RAM, free space on hard disk,
    Mac OS version, iDVD version and QT version ?

  • Idvd will not burn after upgrade to maverick

    Hello-
    I just upgraded to maverick and now iDVD will not burn a DVD - says it does not have a compatible superdrive. It was working fine until I upgraded. How can I burn a nice DVD now?

    Suggestion only. Before launching, did you also check for updates via apple's software updater?

  • My iDvd will not burn a disc...there is an encoding error that comes up after the title screen

    Like it says in the title...My iDvd will not burn a disc...there is an encoding error that comes up after the title screen.
    Here is the process that I have been doing.
    1. put in a blank disk and with the project already being done, i hit burn (not too hard).
    2. iDvd then starts to encode the title.
    3. After the title has been encoded, the burning stops and a message comes up saying "there was an error during encoding" and when ever I try to burn the same message keeps on coming up.
    I am running version 7.0.4
    any help would be extremely helpful

    Try using this workflow:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the  File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option.  This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    Then you can concentrate on the content if you can't create a disk image of the project.

    After iTunes update to 11.1.3 my Home Sharing does not work any more!

  • Hello, the 'Save As' dialog box used to allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory when the focus is in the folder contents box but it does not work any more, please help.

    Hello, the 'Save As' dialog box used to allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory when the focus is in the folder contents box but it does not work any more, please help. BTW the same 'Save As' dialog in other applications still allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory.

    cor-el,
    I kept forgetting and procrastinating about following your instructions, since I have internet access only for limited amounts of time and usually I am busy with important tasks when I am.
    Out of the blue, the problem corrected itself (the Save As box started to open full screen, then shrunk down to a normal size and the edges can now be dragged to a custom size).
    Even the copy and paste problem in the filenaming area seems to have been less troublesome lately even though there have been no updates to Firefox in a few weeks.
    Even though I marked the solution as not helpful, the problem has in fact been resolved. I will save the solution instructions in case the issue returns.

    Did you download the Basic/Free version?

    You get to use VueScan for as long as you want before you buy it, so we recommend you test it before you buy it to make sure it meets your needs.
    All sales are final and there are no refunds.
    Isn't this a bit harsh? Naah I actually prefer to solve problems, and if I offer refunds, people give up too easily. If I can't solve your problem after you send a few Problem Reports (see above), I'm happy to give a refund.

  • Server does not support setting more than 5 shared access policy identifiers on a single container

    Hi,
    I upload a video file to a new Asset. I then attempt to create a streaming URL by creating an Access Policy and then a Locator, which I use to generate the URL used for streaming.This works great. Until the 6th time you execute
    that code against the same Asset. Then you receive this error:
    "Server does not support setting more than 5 shared access policy identifiers on a single container."
    So, that's fine. I don't need to create a new AccessPolicy everytime, I can reuse the one I've created previously, build a Locator using that same policy. However, even then, I get the error about 5 shared access policies on a single container.
    Is this the Lmitation of media service? or am I missing something?
    Following is the code I used for this:
    if (AssetId != "")
                    inputAsset = (from a in _context.Assets
                                  where a.Id == AssetId
                                  select a).FirstOrDefault();
                    policy= (from a in _context.AccessPolicies where a.Name==inputAsset.Name select a).FirstOrDefault();
                    var assetFile = inputAsset.AssetFiles.Create(Path.GetFileName(singleFilePath));
                    var locator = _context.Locators.CreateLocator(LocatorType.Sas, inputAsset, policy);
                    assetFile.Upload(singleFilePath);
                    locator.Delete();
                    MediaElement media = new MediaElement();
                    media.AssetId = inputAsset.Id;
                    media.Title = Path.GetFileName(singleFilePath);
                    var result = Save(media, singleFilePath);
                    return inputAsset;
                else
                    inputAsset = _context.Assets.Create(User.Identity.Name, AssetCreationOptions.None);
                     policy = _context.AccessPolicies.Create(
                                        inputAsset.Name,
                                        TimeSpan.FromDays(30),
                                        AccessPermissions.Write | AccessPermissions.List
    | AccessPermissions.Read | AccessPermissions.Delete);
                     var assetFile = inputAsset.AssetFiles.Create(Path.GetFileName(singleFilePath));
                     var locator = _context.Locators.CreateLocator(LocatorType.Sas, inputAsset, policy);
                     assetFile.Upload(singleFilePath);
                     locator.Delete();
                     policy.Delete();
                     MediaElement media = new MediaElement();
                     media.AssetId = inputAsset.Id;
                     media.Title = Path.GetFileName(singleFilePath);
                     var result = Save(media, singleFilePath);
                     return inputAsset;

  • EMC Does Not Show All Databases Copies Information on DAG - Exchange 2010 SP2

    Hi guys,
    Really need your help here, suddenly my customer complain that they cant see any information on database copies on their Active Copy DAG Exchange server, for another DAG members, the database copies information is visible. After do some readings, I found
    this related to Exchange 2010 SP1 known issue. 
    http://workinghardinit.wordpress.com/2010/09/13/emc-does-not-show-all-database-copies-after-upgrade-to-exchange-2010-sp1-still-investigating/
    But, for my environment, there is Exchange 2010 SP2. I have no idea on this issue since there is no error log thrown out from the event viewer. I already try to restart the server itself and the Microsoft Information services but no luck.

    Hi,
    Based on the description, your customers could see passive database copy information, but they couldn’t view the detail information such as state: Healthy in EMC.
    When did this issue begin?
    Please restart the AD topology service to check result.
    Since we have the information correctly on Exchange shell, please try to clear EMC cache and then open console to check if you can see database copy in EMC.
