Access Pictures on disk after burning

Hi everyone,
I am currently making an iDvd project for a church in my area. They want the DVD to have the two performances of a musical they did on it, as well as a slideshow of around 1500 pictures. Currently, everything fits fine onto the disk (4.7gb), and they videos and slide show play fine. The dilemma I'm stuck with right now, is with the request that the images be available to be taken off the CD and printed, because many people would like to get the pictures of their individual children. I burned a copy of the DVD to see if it did that already, but the slideshow is in VIDEO_TS and saved as a few .vob files.
Now, to my question. If anyone out there knows a way I can work around this so that people can access the images, as well as view the slide show on the DVD, it would be great if you could let me know how to do it.
Thanks in advance,
-Ben Dubois

If the slideshow was created in iDVD, make sure iDVD>Preferences>Slideshow has Always add originals to DVD-ROM contents checked.
If the slideshow was made in another application select Advanced>Edit DVD-ROM Contents to add the images.
Keep in mind that the still images may use up a lot of the capacity of the DVD disc.

Found grease on disks after burning DVDs or CDs

I own a brand new iMAC G5. After burning couple DVDs using the super drive, I found some grease spots on some of the disks. The grease spots had caused the DVDs unusable/unreadable anymore.
I called AppleCare, they said they will replace my drive.
Grease in a drive! This is weird. Has anyone experienced it before?

Darth, welcome to the discussions.
As with anything that is MASS PRODUCED this can happen,
I think this is the 2nd time I have seen this issue in 2 years.
Apple said they will fix it so there is not a problem.

After Burning options:: Disk Utility and Using Finder

I have a Burning Question.
When burning from the Finder, the dialog box I get doesn't have the same options and the dialog box when using Disk Utility. Is this normal? Is there a way to have the options available in the Finder dialog box?? It would be convenient to have the Finder eject the disk after burning, but I can't seem to find a way to turn on that option.

Screen shot using the Finder::
Am I missing something? I can't find anything in Preferences to adjust the After Burning options while using the Finder to burn.
Can someone shed some light on this?? Thank you.

Are you saying then that the dialog boxes I get are normal (as shown in my screen shots)? And, those options are not available using the Finder? There is no way to change the preferences for the Finder burning method?
So, whatever options you have set in Disk Utility with carry over to the Finder automatically?
Also, I noticed there is no way to set these options without performing an actual burn?? I tried to change the check from Mount to Eject and it doesn't stick (I chose Cancel), so I'm guessing it only sticks if you actually burn a disc.
Correct?

Turn off verifying after burn?

Hi everyone,
I can't find a way to turn off the verifying process after I burn a DVD. One must manually click the little x to get a pop up. Burning a dvd with verify takes almost an hour and this is too long. Burn only is about 15 minutes.
Is there a box I can uncheck for this somewhere?

Download and install OnyX, a free acpplication:
http://www.titanium.free.fr/pgs2/english/download.html
With this app you can enable and disable the verifying of disks after burning!
Hopefully this is helpfull or solved your problem. Consider rewarding some points!

Wrong colors on iDVD burned disk after FCut Pro installation

Hi there:
For some reason, after burning a DVD using the iDVD 5.0.1 software all I get is wrong colors when playing it in ANY DVD player. If I watch the very same disk on my G5 Mac, everything turns out ok!
Is it a codec problem?? This problems sudenly began AFTER I installed the Final Cut Pro on my disk.
How can this be explained by the Final Cut installation? And how can I get it right again?
Any help on this would be highly apreciated, please!
Thanks in advance!
Rui.

The images are pictured ok, but the colors are wrong. I have two DVD players at home:
- When I play the DVD on an expensive Pionner DVD player, the reds turned into some sort of green, and the overall color range seems more «cold» (ie, more blue and greenish)
- When I play the DVD on a cheap 20 dolars players, everything turns out black and white.
It happens this way no matter if I use the NTSC or PAL preferences when burning.
I also tryed to asve a .img to disk and burn it using the Disk Utility. Didnt work also.
Ok, I'll try what you say about the external monitor
Thanks for being around.
Rui.

Problems Burning Disks after OS Update

I've been working on a photo project with tens of thousands of image files. As I've been working through this project, I've been burning pictures to CD-ROMs. I'm using standard 700 MB CD-R disks, and until now I've been able to fit about 3,500-4,000 files on each disk, or a total size of about 640-660 MB. I've burned ten CD-ROMs this way in the past year.
Last night I was prompted for an automatic update from OS 10.4.9 to OS 10.4.10, which I did. After the computer updated and restarted, something automatically launched itself from the dock, gave the following unusual message which immediately aroused my suspicion: UPDATING HL-DT-ST DVDRW 6 WA 4080 MA TO BE39 ...
This was as far as I was able to copy before the process finished and the screen disappeared. Another part of the message said not to interrupt the installation or else I could end up with a non-functioning device.
Then the computer restarted itself. A second time the application started itself from the dock but said there weren't any drivers needing updating.
This is the first time in 13.5 years of using Macs that I've ever had to update a driver, and I was very suspicious since it did it all automatically without my authorization.
I restarted the computer again, and the application launched a third time, so I hunted it down and deleted it. It was some sort of driver utility (I wish I'd written down its name). After this, everything seemed to work fine until I went to burn a CD last night.
First, the finder looked slightly different, with new buttons and layout specific to burning a CD. Second, the disk appeared on the desktop with the extension .fbpf, though it had never had an extension before. Third, when I dragged the files to be copied into the Finder window, it just created shortcuts instead of copying the files. I had to do a command-c and a command-v to get them in there. Not all of the files would show up in the finder window, but if I did a command-v again it would ask if I wanted to overwrite them. Fourth, I had 640 MB of files, but it said there wasn't enough room, that the files to be copied were larger than the disk.
Eventually I removed files until it said there was enough room, so I burned the disk. The first attempt produced a disk with half the files missing. The second attempt produced a disk with only 2,007 files and a total size of 399.8 MB. This was wasting about 40% of space on the CD. When I looked at the CD, however, it appeared that the burn had gone nearly to the edge of the disk, instead of about 60% of the way, so something is filling up that space it seems. But what?
My immediate suspicion was the driver update related to the OS update, so I did some researched and realized that OS 10.4.10 is causing tons of problems for lots of people, so I decided to revert to OS 10.4.9.
I performed an archive install back to OS 10.4.8, got rid of the old system folder, and downloaded the update to 10.4.9. Disk Utility returned no errors. I finished that this morning, but the disk burning problem remains, and the Finder even froze up during this process.
My guess is that reverting to a previous OS did not fix whatever changes were made to the driver, but I'm not sure how I should proceed here. I'm also wondering if this is more generally related to OS 10.4, because I cannot recall burning a data CD like this since I upgraded from OS 10.3 (but backing up purchased audio files from iTunes was the same as always).
Does anyone have any suggestions here? (I'd prefer not to have to reformat the drive and restore everything from back-up and original install disks because that takes about six hours.)

Thanks Carolym for your response.
Go to System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items. Delete any
applications you have listed.
I did this; there were four applications including the driver update software that self-installed last night. Who knew it was still lurking around after being deleted?
But, after restarting, the problem persists.
Is this a SuperDrive that can also burn to DVD? If
so, read here; http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/feedback/
superdrivefw_update2.1.html
Yes, it is.
This page didn't make any sense to me. Were these posts by people installing the update or removing it? That page seems to refer to the update that happened last night, which seems to have started my problems. Can you elaborate on this?
I've replicated this on both my internal drive and an external drive connected by FireWire. I've never had problems with this media before. The alsoft.com site is apparently off-line today.
The entire problem seems to be software related. The size discrepancy between what's reported by the "Burn Disk" Finder window is now TWICE the size reported on the "Get Info" window. It's as if it is reading the contents to be burned twice when calculating their size.
The files I want to put on a disk are 640.5 MB. Everything on my computer says this, except the Finder window for the disk. At the bottom of the window it reports the files are over 1,291 MB in size, which is too large to fit on the 700 MB disk. But when I select the files in that same finder window with command-i, it says 640.5 MB.
For kicks, I put the disk I burned last night through Disk Utility. It showed the 400.5 MB of files on the 700 MB Disk. So, there was about 260 MB of space wasted on that disk. When I burned the disk last night, the computer was thinking the files were about 660 MB (which is the most it has ever allowed me to write to a disk). Disk Utility also said the disk was burned in Mac format, and I was under the impression this computer was burning to ISO format.
Is there some setting somewhere that perhaps I'm overlooking that writes the disks a certain way and that could be the cause? Could it be a memory issue/allocation/buffer size/etc issue? Something else?

I have a Mac Pro OS 10.7.5 and have a DVD+R disc with files on it, but it ejects the disk after about 10 seconds--what to do? How can I get the data off this disc? I can see it has been already burned, so files are on there?

Try cleaning the lens and see if that will restore functionality to the DVD drive. Use a DVD lens cleaning disk, if you have a can of compressed air, shoot some into the slot or wrap a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglasses cleaning cloth) around a business card and insert it gently inside the slot.
If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and get a free diagnosis from them.

Mountain lion has killed my mac book pro. After downloading and trying to install, I am stuck in a loop of "not enough room to install on this disk" and not being able to access the old disk's data to open up space.

Mountain lion has killed my mac book pro. After downloading and trying to install, I am stuck in a loop of "not enough room to install on this disk" and not being able to access the old disk's data to open up space.

Nope. It just opened the installer and stayed in the same loop.
It tells me to choose a startup disk but the only option is the HD which it will not use because it says it cannot gather enough information.
Eveything was working fine until the mountain lion failed install.

Can't access Time Capsule's hard disk after Lion upgrade

I haven't been able to access my TC's hard disk after I upgraded to Lion.
I used to manually backup files to the volume but I can't do it anymore. I can't see the disk in the Finder's sidebar. Devices are all checked in Finder's preferences for sidebar and my WiFi/Internet works fine. Airport Utility doesn't show any problems and upgraded to OS X 10.7.1 but still no luck. I also tried to hook my laptop with ethernet cable and my TC but it didn't work either.
Any ideas?

I'm new to Time Capsule, but I think I have the same problem. I thought I could use Time Capsule as a hard drive, but it comes on and off in my finder. Is this normal?

Burning a new disk days after burning first began

after burning a project, which takes upwards of 6 hours, do I still have to go through the processing and rendering at a later date or is there a way to "save" that process and go directly to burning?

No you do not. You can use the first copy your burned and make copies of it with Disk Utility. Apple provides instructions here...

HP SimpleSave external disk 1 Tb, "no access to a disk"

HP SimpleSave 1 Tb, HPBAAD0010HBK-01, Model N: hp md1000h, S/N:[Personal Information Removed]
Virtual HPLauncher disk works and program HPLauncher.exe is started also. The system (Win7) sees the HP SimpleSave 1Tb disk. In properties of the disk shows the dimension of 0 byte and then jumps out a window "error in data (CRC). There is no access to a disk." After that it suggests to format a disk. I refuse. How to recover the disk?
Thanks.

I too have the exact same problem on my HP SimpleSave (sd500a) external hard drive. I got through to WDC, and they apparently support these devices now. They asked me to send them a copy of my purchase receipt in order to extend my warranty in their system in order to help me (ridiculous!!). I sent the scanned copy of the receipt to [email protected], and got an auto-reply that they will get back to me within 1 day. I also went on their website, and they refer to the device in their system as 'ED Caviar Blue EIDE Hard Drive'. It has the same serial number as my product from HP, so I guess they have acquired these products or at least support of them (?). In any case, I'm freaking out because I have tons of family pictures, video and my entire iTunes library on the device. If any one is able to get help for this, please respond. I am desperate to get this resolved.

Keywords messed up after burned to CD

hi guys,
i've assigned keywords to almost all pictures. after burning some of the pictures and reload it in iphoto, i noticed that the keywords are all jumbled up. anyone else experienced this? thanks!

The answer is somewhat variable, depending entirely on what you are trying to display the information. Windows Media Player is notorious for only displaying CDDB information unless you get an extra plugin for it - which means that it reads no data directly from the disk at all, except the ISRC number. Reading the information from the disk itself is a notoriously fickle operation, one way or another, and it's really not well supported in a lot of players.

No thumbnails after burning photo's

Dealing with a very strange issue. A customer is running a new MBP 10.6.8 ilife 11 full updated. She burns a set of photo's which burn fine but when she tries to view them the thumbnails are missing. The strange thing is that when you double click on the missing thumbnail the main picture will appear. So I took the iphoto library to another machine and again burn a set of pictures. Took that burn to a totally different machine (full 10.6.8 ilife 11) and still the same issue no thumbnails. I downloaded a program call iphoto library manager and went about rebuilding the customers library file. That did not help. I decided to try buring pictures from my workstation machine and after the burn tried to read them on the customers machine and again the thumbnails are missing but the main pictures are there.
I proceeded to backup the customers machine, wipe and reinstall OS. Used data migrate to migrate of the data and ran software updates. Burned another dvd and again the same issue. I took one of the burned DVD's and tried it on a Mac Mini (10.6.8 iLife 11) and long behold the thumbnails are all there.
At this point I have no idea what is going on. If anyone else has had this issue before and found a way to fix it please let me know.
Thanks

This is a bug in iPhoto 11 that seems to only occur when burning a disk of photos. Hopefully another contributor will have info about any fix.

I am having problems with my music collection, after burning all of my music to the computer I organized it into folders and placed it in the iTunes Folder. Starting on a new computer now. I can get my music from old computer?

I am having problems with my music collection, after burning all of my music to the computer I organized it into folders and placed it in the iTunes Folder. As of now i realize this was a mistake. Starting on a new computer now. I cant get my music to transfer from the itunes folder on the old computer? I keep getting error "Can't Read from the source file or disk." Whenever I got to folder properties its always checked read only. But when i play the song it works just fine. Im sure this is just because I added music into itunes folder but is there anyway to fix it?

WMA files are 'window media audio' files, which is a Microsoft format. If you want to add them to your iTunes library on your Mac then you will need to convert them into a compatible format first. If you still have your windows machine then iTunes for Windows can convert them from WMA to MP3 format : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24158701#24158701
Or try a search for, for example, 'convert wma to mp3' to find programs to convert them.
