Burning a website to a CD?
Hi,
I need to burn my website I created in Dreamweaver CS4 to a CD. How do I do this?
Also, do I burn all the files within my created site (that is everything in the Files panel)?
I know this is probably really easy to do but I'm just new to creating websites and making sites available to others.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Hi,
"... and making sites available to others." A prerequisite is, however, that these people have a DW at their disposal. So it would be enough, of course, if you transfer the data from the root folder. The files are in the htdocs directory, as is mostly the case. For example:
In order to demonstrate the site, you should furthermore copy an off-line viewer to your CD (or DVD, question of space).

Can I transfer iWeb site to a DVD?
I have an iWeb site that runs well for my local U3A, it has about 60 pages. Most fit on a standard screen others are longer. Is it possible to transfer the site to a DVD so that in can play unattended on a TV in a room without an internet link. I can't think that it would be possible but someone out there may know better.
One possible alternative may be to transfer the material to a Keynote presentation but could that be transferred to DVD?
Thanks
DavidNo you can't do that and it would not work either. You can burn the website to the DVD, but it would not do anything because you would either need to burn the iWeb files to the DVD, but they need iWeb to make it visible or you burn the html and css files to the DVD - that is the published site, but you need Safari, Chrome etc., to be able to view. A website is meant to be published to a host and viewed on the internet and not a TV.
If you want to view a Keynote presentation, then you need to connect your computer to the TV or another monitor so you can view it from and control it from the computer.
What you want to do will not work.
If you want people to see an example of your website, then publish your website from iWeb to your desktop and then burn the published version to a DVD and give that to people so that they can play it in their computers and open it with Safari, Chrome etc and can see it - a website is not meant to be seen on a TV or burned to a DVD. -

A message to everyone experiencing screen burns on their Macbook Pro's with Retina Display
I went to the apple store to exchange my old mac book pro with retin a display for a new 1 because I had the screen burn problems. After they went over my computer they noticed that I had a logical board problem. You guys might not have the same problem but the way that they figured it out is when they tried to migrate my information because with a thunderbolt port it would've taken 42 hours to transfer my 130 gigabytes of storage. I wanted to make this thread to inform you guys about this problem and maybe get yours check to see if you have it. I'm sorry about this message I didn't have enough time so I did it on my phone speak to text. Leave a reply if you guys have the same problem or have any concerns. thanks.
WisdomTooth asked:
What should I do? has this issue been resolved or should I wait?
Remember that we only hear of the problems here (and, sometimes, the solutions). I doubt if the problems are pandemic or we would be reading a lot more about them at the various Mac websites. Faulty computers are going to come out of the production line, no doubt about it. But most of the problems I've seen posted here for the MBP-R's have been remedied or some will be remedied with the release of Mountain Lion.
Since ML will surely be released in the next couple of weeks, I'd wait and see, for instance, if it addresses some of the video/USB problems that have been reported here. Some with developer seed copies of ML say that it 'fixes' the USB 3.0 problems and some of the video problems (obviously not ghosting, distorted video, etc.).
So I'd just wait a couple of weeks, see if some of the issues are cleared up, then order the Retina display if that's what you want. Every other problem I've read of seemed to have been fixed by replacing the computer, logic board, etc. That's just normal.
Good luck,

Welcome to the Support Communities! The error message you posted indicates a possible firmware update is needed for iTunes for Windows to work with your CD drive.
iTunes for Windows: Updating the firmware on your CD or DVD drive - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201852
Having outdated firmware can cause issues using CDs and DVDs with iTunes for Windows. Firmware is a type of software stored in a chip in hardware that can sometimes be updated.Identifying drives and firmware versions
To run CD Diagnostics, follow the steps in this document.
After following the steps to run CD Diagnostics linked above, look at section three to find out more about your optical drive(s).
Here is an example of what section three might look like:
In this example there are two drives. Drive E is a Samsung DVD-ROM drive with a model designation of SD-616 that has firmware version F000. Drive F is an NEC drive with a model designation of NR-7900A that has firmware version 1.08.Updating the firmware
If the optical drive you are using came with your computer, check with the support site for your computer for a firmware update. Typically you will need to go to the support website for the computer maker and click on a "downloads" or "updates" link, and then enter your computer model designation and operating system version to see what updates are available. Then look through the available updates for a firmware update for your optical drive. Download the updater and run it. If you need assistance applying the update, contact the maker of your computer.
If the optical drive you are using came as a separate part (was not included with a computer), check the support site for the drive maker for a firmware update. Sometimes the manufacturer is not clear in the CD Diagnostics results. In that case, you may just have to search the Internet for the drive model designation. You can usually find out who made the drive by looking through the results of such a search. Once you have identified who made your drive, go to the support website for that company. Look for a "downloads" or "updates" link, and then enter your optical drive model designation. Download the updater and run it. If you need assistance applying the update, contact the maker of the optical drive.Verifying that the firmware was updated
Run CD Diagnostics again.
Examine the CD Diagnostics results. The firmware version for the drive should be the new version.

Also, you mentioned that you have been successful burning a CD with the Windows OS. Make sure that you have closed all software programs that can access the CD burner so that there isn't a conflict for the drive. Sometimes chaning the burn speed from "maximum" to 8x can also help in this situation.
I hope this information helps ...

I have been trying to burn newly purchased (as well as last year purchases) ITunes to a disc. I had burned some of these songs to a disc last year and all went well. Now I have been getting this popup telling me that the AppleSync Notifier has stoped working & the corefoundation.dll needs to be re-installed. Also that Windows will try to fix the problem. Every time I try to burn the disc, the computer sends the disc back out and the screen tells me to put in a blank recordable disc. I have tried 4 different new discs now and the same thing happens.
I am running Windows Vista.
Have been to the Roxio web site for help as well as Apple.
Have tried many "fixes" such as: updating latest version of Direct X from the Microsoft website; Disabling startup items; going to local disc C and into the Apple/Apple Appplication support and right-clicking on the SQLite3.dll and moving it tomobile support device window. Nothing has worked. What can I do to get some music recorder? Should I buy a new cassette deck and record onto tape like I did 20 years ago? This is a very important disc I am making as a gift & I need to get it done by this weekend. Is there anyone that can offer good advice?love paying a lot of money for something that doesn't work right, thanks apple

Error while Trying to Burn a CD
PLEASE HELP!! I have been trying to burn CD's from iTunes and it burns half of the songs, gives me an 4251 unknown error code, and aborts the burn. I have followed all of the suggestions on the help page (updating drivers, turning off the screensaver, running a CD diagnostics test, etc)and it still does not work. On the first CD, the songs that were burned worked, but it left off the last 3 songs. The second CD I tried to burn only worked for the first 5 of 14 songs and when I played the CD, it was full of static. I ran a diagnostic test. I would appreciate anyone's help. This is all so frustrating. My iPod Shuffle no longer will hold a charge and I am trying to get all of my songs on a CD. My concern is that I bought most of the songs from iTunes and there is a limit of 7 burns per song. I am not sure if they are counting these "attempts" as burns.?.?.

I have completed the slide show i am making, but not sure what to do now. I want to burn it to a dvd, but not sure if i can do that from iphoto or do i need to export to imovie or idvd? If i need to export, will iphoto save a copy in iphoto? This may be really stupid, but I don't see an obvious way to save my slide show in iphoto. Please Help!
Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
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, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is 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.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
NOTE: If you're running iPhoto 9.5 the export options will be different.

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities
First I recommend taking a look at this article named iTunes: Music purchased from iTunes Store cannot be burned to MP3 format CD found http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1476.
Songs purchased from the iTunes Store may either be in AAC format or AAC Protected format depending on when they were purchased (older songs used AAC Protected format). You can convert AAC songs to MP3 format allowing them to be burned to an MP3 format CD, however AAC Protected songs can not be converted. You can, however, back them up to a data CD or DVD, or you can burn them to an audio CD (which can be played in a CD player).
And if your issue still persists after converting any of these purchases, then I would recommend this part of the article named Disc Burning Quick Assist found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1152#learn2:
Top troubleshooting tips
In addition to the following tips, check out these articles:
Solving problems with burning discs
If the disc burning options are dimmed or unavailable
If a burn does not succeed, check the disc or try another disc
Eject the disc from the drive and inspect it to see if the surface is dirty or scratched, or if it already has data written on it (the shiny surface is slightly darker where data has already been burned). If it's dirty, wipe it clean with a soft, damp cloth and try burning again. If the disc already contains data, try another disc. If you're using a rewritable disc that already contains data, be sure to erase it before burning data on it again. Small flaws or surface inconsistencies can cause an unsuccessful burn. Try burning your content to another disc or try a different brand of disc (if possible).
Make sure that your optical drive can record discs
If your drive is built into your Mac, make sure that you have at least a Combo Drive if you want to burn a CD or a SuperDrive if you're trying to burn a DVD (or CD). Consult your Mac manual or your third-party manufacturer's disc drive manual for more information.
Check the disc type
Make sure that your disc drive is capable of writing to your media at hand. For example, you won't be able to burn a DVD+RW disc with an older Apple SuperDrive. Consult your Apple or third-party product manual for your drive's supported media specifications. You should also use discs that are rated for the burn speed of your drive.
Slow things down
In the Burn dialog, specify a burn speed that is slower than the maximum speed rating for your disc drive (if you can) and try burning another disc.
Free up some memory
If you've got other applications open, quit the ones that you're not using (or quit them all except for the one from which you're burning your disc). Allow the disc to burn before doing other things on your computer.
Check your hard drive's available space
When you burn a disc, your Mac temporarily sets aside an amount of hard disk space equal to the amount of data being burned to the disc. If you're burning a large amount of data, you may run out of room on your hard disk if it's almost full, which may prevent a disc from burning. To free up space, throw out unwanted files or back up files to an external drive.
Restart your computer
Sometimes a simple restart can resolve issues. Once you've restarted your Mac, try burning another disc again.
Update your software
Use Software Update (from the Apple menu, choose Software Update) to check for, download, and install the latest versions of your Apple software. If you're using a third-party burner, visit the manufacturer's website for the latest software updates for your model.
Check your connections
If you're using an external disc writer, make sure that all of your cable connections are secure and that the optical drive is powered on.
Cheers,

IDVD doesn't respond after it says "Done" at the end of Burning
Firstly, I have burn many, many, MANY DVD's before in iDVD (for school camps, special occasions, etc.) and have met this problem before, but in a different way. Those times I was burning about 20 copies, and after about 7 or 8, it would say this problem. My solution was to press cancel, then start burning again IMMEDIATELY, and it would work again.
The Problem: that when burning a DVD (it's a project on Apple as a company. Kinda ironic, because it's all about how fantastic they are, and then this happens). What happens, is that iDVD processes the movies, menus, slideshows, etc. and then gets to the "Burn" part of the burning. Here, the process bar is slowly moving forward, and after about 5 minutes of burning (very normal for my mac) it ejects; BUT!: the menu left on iDVD stays on the "Done" screen forever (at the end of the burning, the remaining time is Done). I checked on my other computer and again on my mac, and it is positively blank (the drive also didn't make as much noise as it usually does when burning). This may have something to do with that it is the first time I have exported a Keynote to a QuickTime, and then put it into iDVD (and I also put some "Get a Mac" ads off the Apple website on it). I asked a good friend of mine about this, and suggested that I put the ads into iMovie '09 and then export into iDVD, just so that they are all definitely the same format, but it didn't work AGAIN! So I put the ads into Keynote, deleted them from iDVD, re-exported them and failed to burn AGAIN X 2! HHEELLPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Update: The problem still occurs, but I had the project due in today, so I put the quicktime of the Keynote on a flash-drive and ran it off my School computer (not a mac... unfortunatley).

Cannot burn CD after upgrading to iTunes 8.0.2
I have tried repeatedly to burn a CD with new version of ITunes and the burn freezes at the beginning of the first song. Have wasted 5 blank CD's trying different song lists from various sources. Is there a fix, or is there a way I can reinstall ITunes to see if something happened during the upgrade install?
I am using the CD equipment that came with my Mac.Had the same problem with the new update. I finally got back to my previous version by using system restore. After the restore I had to go to the "All Programs" list and click on Quicktime and iTunes individually to allow them to re-configure, then had to restart the computer again. After that all's well. My lbrary was intact.
I tried everything to get the newest version to work, including completely uninstalling my current versions of QT and iTunes, then downloading the latest directly from the Apple website, but, after 3 attempts, nothing worked. Guess I'll have to wait for the next update and try again.
By the way, your library is not actually stored in iTunes--it is stored in your Music folder, so you should not lose anything by uninstalling iTunes if you need to. -
How do I burn a iDVD project on more than one computer?
I created an iDVD (7.1.2) project with three elements. Two iMovies made from iMovie '11 and a presentation made from Keynote (5.1.1).
I deleted the chapters in the slide show to help simplify matters and it did cut down on my burning/processing time.
I made this iDVD project for my son's 5th grade graduation. We would like to burn 135 copies to give each family one 'favor/dvd' for memory keepsake.
I do not want to burn 135 copies on my Superdrive (new to owning a mac) and do not want to ruin my Superdrive for a school project.
I can not take this to a commericial duplicater because of copyright issues with the music. We are not selling the copies, just giving a memory keepsake to the kids- of the year and the slide show from graduation, the other iMovie in iDVD, just contains one page of specifications; like my contact info and songs used etc..
I have parents that are willing to help me copy the movie, however I don't know how to do this?
I don't believe any of these parents have iDVD.
Someone mentioned through all my readings on apple communities and google, making an "ISO" of your project then anyone can make a copy of your movie on any platform: PC or Mac. What is an ISO? How do I make a ISO?
If I have a .img file from saving a disc image - would I burn the .img file to a dvd and give it to someone else to copy? Are there other files that need to go with my .img file?
If/When someone takes my .img file and puts it on their computer how do they copy it? Do they need burning software?
Can I just give a friend a burned DVD of my movie to burn copies on their computer?
What I tried: Bought a LaCie burner to use a external drive vs. my (Superdrive - worried about overuse). Saved project as a "Disc Image." Mounted to my Finder and then burned to external drive with disc utility. This worked successfully 4 times in a row then kept getting message "unsuccessful burn" I took the drive back to Fry's. Not sure if it was the drive?
Any advice to a newcomer would be great!
Summer has already begun and I would like to finish this project as soon as I can.
Thanks so much, DeannaYes, you can distribute a burned disk of the project to those who can create duplicate disks. Or create a disk image of the iDVD project using the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option.
Then you can distribute the disk image to those who will burn the disks. For PCs you'll have to convert the .dmg file to a .iso file so they can burn it. This website describer how: Mac Help - Convert and Burn Mac .dmg or .img to .iso Windows PC-Compatible Disk Image
Suggest to them to 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.
It would be prudent to rest your optical drive for about 30 minutes after burning 3 disks in a row. That will give the laser time to cool down before you start another batch.

Problems ripping with an external DVD Burner
Hello Everyone,
Recently I purchased a Liteon External DVD Burner off of newegg (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827106011) -- It's a Liteon SHW-1635SX -- I bought this because the DVD-ROM drive thats in my tower natively is REALLY slow and I wanted to get a new one that I could use with a laptop that I`m going to purchase in the future. Whenever I try to rip a CD into iTunes using the burner, It says that it's ripping the disk, however it doesn't spin up the cd and it takes about 2 seconds to "rip" all the songs. I know this drive is soposed to be faster than my old one, But two seconds is a little TOO fast. Plus, I know that it's not copying the songs because when I try to listen to them in my library, the song won't play. (Under time it says "789:54..." for all the songs on the cd, in my library) However, the burner rips perfectly in Windows Media Player... Is this perhaps some kind of glitch with iTunes??? Basicly, the only way I can rip a CD into iTunes is to use my old DVDROM drive, but that defeats the purpose... below is the CD Diagnostic log that I got from iTunes::::::::

If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.
Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.
Check the Windows Update website to verify that you have the latest service packs and patches for your OS. Service packs affect the performance of USB and firewire CD / DVD drives.

Your replies are greatly appretiated!
--Aric--hi Aric!
hmmm. we'd better check on the usual suspects with that. (the incredibly long song times can also be associated with these sorts of causes.)
You can't import or play music from an audio CD in iTunes for Windows
... and the following resources might be helpful with that. (check on firmware and drivers even though it's a brand new unit.)

How to add one song to iphone from an album burn onto itunes from a cd
I have been trying for some time now to add an album from my Itunes onto my iphone. the album is not bought from itunes store but burn from a disk I own.
I have tried to add it by making a new playlist and syncing it, and I have tried to add it 'manually' after clicking on 'manually manage music etc'.
both times instead of just adding the music I have selected, it begins to 'back up' my iphone and sync on songs I have deleted ages ago!!! and APPS I have deleted ages ago! its very frustrating.Its as if it completely ignores my request and does whatever it wants.... I have followed the instructions on the apple help website but it does not work. can anyone help?? am I missing something?The music sync is ONE WAY - computer to iphone. The ONLY exception is itunes purchases.
You would have to use a third party program, not supported by Apple, if you wanted to do this.
