IDVD is not working...We did everything described

Why doesn't apple do Apple do something about it? We did everything described here. I bought my laptop with Leopard and DVD is not working since I bought it. We tried every thing described it was all to no avail. What can we do?

Came back to leave at least hope if not a fix for everyone....after going through every fix listed here and web wide etc., I finally trashed the entire app from the applications, then reloaded just the IDVD app using the two original ship discs (not the update of leopard disc) selecting customize and selecting just iDVD & extra iDVD features, to save time.
Before you go to the trouble of doing this remember you must clear all the other elements already listed elsewhere (easy to find in support here) so you have no holdovers from the previous install. After you load the iDVD app from disc 1 & 2, next update the software and at least in my case the %&^-thing finally worked...actually a really nice program.

  • My key sound and game sound is not working I did everything

    My key sounds game sound not working YouTube music working fine pls help

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • IDVD is not working in Mavericks... what now?

    I am very upset that iDVD is not working in Mavericks! I need the ability to burn DVDs for family who is unable to access the internet. Any patches or fixes available to make this software usable again? I am very disappointed that Apple would do this without warning users that previously purchased software would be incompatible with the new OS.

    I am also having problems with iDVD under Mavericks. I have used iDVD for many years creating DVD's for family members and archiving our vacations. It worked great under Snow Leopard, Lion, and Mountain Lion, but now Mavericks is a different situation.
    I have two basic problems, (1) after importing the video I want to use, I play it back to preview and a small band shows up at the top of the screen that is not in sync with the rest of the screen. And (2) when showing a slideshow using standard jpegs there are color issues on playback. Help,  I need my iDVD back!

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    Our powerbooks can not run iMovie'08. Not enough horsepower.
    That is why we are offered a free download of iMovie '06.

  • I have OSX 10.7.5, my idvd is not working correctly.  Should I re-download this version again , do you think that it will help to improve the idvd operation?

    I have OSX 10.7.5 on my imac, my idvd is not working correctly.  Should I re-download this version again , do you think that it will help to improve the idvd operation?

    First, iDVD is not and never has been part of OS X. If iDVD is not working correctly, then you should investigate possible problems with that application, support files, preferences, or cache.
    Of course you can always reinstall OS X if you wish:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • I have the macBookPro and the problem is the mouse pad does not work I tried everything but still does not work what should i do ?

    I have the macBookPro and the problem is the mouse pad does not work I tried everything but still does not work what should i do ?
    so i'm using the usb mouse

    I want to clarify the issue.
    The issue is with the MBP trackpad, and it works fine with an attached USB mouse.
    With some ingenuity, you might be able to fix this yourself, but I suggest visiting your local Apple Store/Genius Bar. Some have fixed this issue and have posted their results online, but the Apple Store should be your first destination.
    Post here with your results!!

  • IDVD is not working in IMOVIE

    Hi, Couple of months ago I had to reinstall my Imac OS X 10.5 since then my iMovie's IDVD option is not working. I thought if I upgrade the OS and iLife it would solve the problem. Recently I upgrade my OS to 10.6.3 and Ilife to iLife 11. Even after I upgraded my IDVD option is not working on the iMovie. I can write dvd's using the regular IDVD program. But it's not working on the iMovie. Can any one help me out with this. I tried everything. Why the IDVD option on IDVD wouldn't work on my Imac.

    I need to write the project to dvd directly using iDVD option in iMovie. That's what I can't do.
    Some of us have found that Share to iDVD produces inferior quality DVDs than when exporting using Share to Media Browser (check posts by rrodby). At least, that was the case in iMovie '09 - not sure about iMovie '11. In iDVD, simply drag the exported movie into the Theme background from the Media>Movies tab.
    The exported movie can also be used for other purposes, such as copying to a flash drive or external drive for viewing on a media player. The movie is located in the project's package contents. In Finder, right-click (or Control-click) on the project name and select "Show Package Contents". In the Movies folder you will see your exported movie. If you use Share to iDVD, you don't have independent access to your exported move.

  • WLan connected, iPad and iPhone internet ok, iMac not working after trying everything (manual ip etc...)

    I am quite new with a mac computer. But i think i nearly tried everything, i have no idea what else could help...
    My iPhone and iPad are working perfektly in the wlan. My iMac works very rarely. Yes it worked once by manual ip, but later it did not work again.
    Wlan always works (sometmes it takes a few seconds until thesymbol is fat, mostly it starts with "no internet")
    I tried so many things...
    - manual ip found out by my windows pc
    - $ in front of the password
    - the apple faqs on the websites
    Very strange, but i hope someone solved an comparable problem already ;)
    Thx!

    I had a surfstick before, does that influence the whole thing?
    And another thing: in other wlans the iMac worked perfectly... Without any manual settings etc.
    Anyone an idea?

  • Lenovo V570 Laptop Power Button does not work. Did I screw it up?

    Hi, my Lenovo V570 keyboard recently stopped working so I took the keyboard off to reposition the cable. In the process I disconnected another cable on the motherboard (shown in the pictures below). I also cant find the black plastic piece that was holding it down.
    Now not only does the keyboard not work but the power button does nothing. After research though Ifound out this laptop is notorius for having the power button go bad.
    When I plug in the AC adapter I do see the battery light go on and it charges so I dont think the motherboard is bad. I
    have tried every trick in the book as far as getting static out of the laptop power button (holding down power button for
    certain times). I looked at the mainteneance manual for this laptop and could not figure out what the disconnected cable does. I have tried reconnecting the cable without the plastic piece but that did not work.
    Is the disconnected cable responsible for this or should I order a new power button board with cable?

    Hi Deziant,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
     As per the query we understood that you are facing issue with power button not working in your V570 laptop.
    As per the snap shot which you have shared it looks like the black support connector is broken, you can fix this cable by using a gum, but I would suggest you to visit nearest service center to fix this issue.

  • Bridge CC does not work it did work before

    I have  Bridge on my machine (Mac) it worked, then I got a message suggesting to purge the cache that did not work so I uninstalled the Bridge CC and reinstalled no different I have to force quit to stop Bridge.

    I uninstalled the Bridge CC and reinstalled no different
    That is normal because a simple reinstall never solves problems due to a lot of files that stay put on your system without any changes. Quit Bridge, find your user library (by default hidden, use option with menu Go in Finder) and inhere go to the folder Caches/ Adobe/ BridgeCC and inhere you find a folder called caches and a plugin. Delete both files manual to the trash, Restart Bridge and let it takes it time to cache the files again (your central cache has been corrupted or grown to large or both) because your new cache folder is empty and needs to be filled again.

  • My iMovie & iDVD does not work properly at all.

    When I try to share a movie in iMovie, it says "Unable to prepare project for publishing". As well as "The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (Error in user parameter list)". Also, it wont import any videos no matter what the format is. I have uninstalled the program & re-installed it but nothing seems to work.
    iDVD does not let me create a project and edit it. It also does not let me create a DVD.
    I have an '07 Macbook w/ Snow Leopard operating system and I have run out of ideas as to why these 2 programs are not working for me.
    Please help!!!

    First try Resetting it: Hold down the home and sleep button, ignore the red OFF slider, wait for the Apple logo then let go.
    If that does not work, Restore your iPhone in iTunes from your backup.
    If that still does not fix it, Restore your iPhone and a new phone (not from backup) and see how it works. If it is doing fine you have a app you are using that is probably causing your problem. Load them one and a time until the problems recur and you will have found the one that is a problem.

  • Envy 2 Since 8.1 update keyboard does not work right did several driver updates with no results?

    I even restored to factory settings, can i go back to 8.0 if Hp and Ms can't get it right?

    Pete,
    The invitation to Upgrade to Windows 8.1 comes from Microsoft.
    If you did not make backups, you might be able to order replacement Media from HP.
    You may find Recovery Media at your computer's website.  Start at: 
    HP Drivers & Downloads
    If available, the Media has its own category: Order Recovery Media
    ==========================================================================
    If you cannot find it, or you are outside of the US / Canada, you can call HP directly:
    Worldwide Support Portal
    Contact HP – USA - Phone Assistance
    Warranty Required – USA and Canada
    USA – Contact HP // Self-Help – Email - Chat
    ============================================================================
    Microsoft does care about their customers.  Microsoft's enthusiasm for Windows 8.1 might have overshadowed their inclination to warn you that not EVERY computer on the planet is able to run Windows 8.1 easily - or, in some cases, at all.
    The Envy 2, IF you are talking about the Envy X2 - one of various models, should be able to run Windows 8.1 if some precautions are taken ahead of time. 
    For example:
    Every driver must be updated to Windows 8.1 before you Upgrade
    Most user installed programs should be removed
    Most user settings should be set back to standard.  For example, set a standard background, do not expect your fancy Start Screen settings to survive, back up and strip the stuff from your Desktop.
    All connected devices must be removed.
    Security software must be removed.
    You should not attempt the Upgrade without having the means to get back to where you started.  Translation:  Make Backups - Make Backups - Make Backups
    The following might help you if you want to try again:
    Upgrade Windows 8 to Windows 8.1
    Good Luck!  Windows 8.1 is worth the journey if you can be successful.
    Click the Kudos Thumbs-Up to show appreciation and say Thanks.
    Although I strive to reflect HP's best practices, I do not work for HP.
