I note this information from Wikipedia: "DVD Studio Pro was a high-end software tool published by Apple Inc. to allow users to create DVD masters to be sent out for replication at production houses. Its tight integration with other Apple applications allows users to take Final Cut Pro and Motion projects and render them into the DVD format without encoding to intermediary formats. This streamlines the production workflow and reduces overhead."
If that is your intent, finding a substitute program that will run on your Mac may not be as efficient. Others can advise you on alternatives, or you can post a new thread specifically with that question.
BTW: what Mac and what version of OS X?
If it is important to you to continue to use DVD Studio Pro, consider the option of installing Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels on your Mac:

I purchased an Italian hotspot to access internet on my American Ipad2 while abroad. I had no trouble connecting to the hotspot but when I try and access the internet it "cannot connect to the server". what does that mean and how can I fix it?

I am abroad for the summer and there is no internet available. I purchased a hotspot in a nearby vodaphone and they helped me connect the Ipad to the hotspot. I assumed I would have no trouble after that. Once I got home though and connected to the hotspot i found i could not open the internet without getting a notice about not connecting to the server. I have a signal and can connect to the hotspot and yet i get no internet. I already spent 50 euro on the hotspot for 2 months of wifi...is there a way to actually fix the problem without me having to spend more money?

I'm guessing e mail does not work either. While the pad is seeing the network, it is not yet connecting, probably trying to work through your security set up. I suggest you go to settings, then network, then the details of the network. Do you see an ip address that starts with 192.168.1. Then some number? If not, the router has not made friends with the pad.
Suggest that from that same screen, you select 'forget this network'. Then start over again, paying close attention to what happens when you provide the security password.

When trying to download Itunes this pops up " key not valid for use in specified state" what does this mean and how can I fix it?

When trying to download Itunes this pops up " key not valid for use in specified state" what does this mean and how can I fix it? I am using a pc laptop if that makes any difference.

Try reading through this thread: key not valid for use in specified state. Possible solution involves moving the RSA folder. Rather than deleting it as aniwack suggested I'd try this:
For "Key not valid for use in specified state" errors try moving the folder RSA from C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA to say C:\RSA (just in case there should be a need to restore it) then try installing again. This folder appears to act as a cache and should be rebuilt automatically as required.

When trying to save a document , it says syntax error-what does that mean and how do I fix it?

when trying to save a document that I typed, it says syntax error..what does that mean and how do I fix it so I can save my documents?

Applescript is like HTML, Actionscript, or Javascript.
SYNTAX is EVERYTHING.
Unlike HTML, Dreamweaver will pop a syntax error when trying to save a javascript that is unworkable because of a Syntax Error. Flash will do the same with a bad Actionscript.
AppleScript Editor is the same way as Dreamweaver or Flash.
The reason is:
Bad HTML - a browser simply won't load the page or it'll load it with missing or no content. Not all that bad.
Bad Javascript - your browser can lock up and if the script is complex enough, it can lock up your entire system.
Bad Actionscript - just like bad javascript, it can potentially lock your entire system.
Bad Applescript - can lock up your entire system.
With Windows, viruses are often improperly read as SYNTAX errors in Actionscript or Javascript. That's not a worry with an AppleScript, but the possibility of locking up your system is worth a warning.
You need to double check your syntax to be sure you haven't got something missing or improperly written.
