Can I use DVD+R disks with my MacBookPro, OS10.7.5, and iMovie 6 and IDVD 7.1.2

Can I use DVD+R disks with my MacBookPro, OS10.7.5, and iMovie 6 and iDVD 7.1.2  ???? I have always used DVD-R.  I made a mistake in ordering and got 100 DVD+R .  Would it be advisable to return them?

Yes, you can use them.  As I recall the only concern is that they may not work in DVD players manufactured before 2002.

  • Can I use icloud on imac with snow leopard OS10.6.8

    Err Can I use icloud with iMac OS snow leopard 10.6.8 ?

    This page explains what you can do on Snow Leopard with an existing iCloud account.
    http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudSL.html
    You cannot create an iCloud account on Snow Leopard.
    In addition to SoHo Organizer, Fruux syncs Calendars, Tasks and Contacts between a wide variety of devices (not using the iCloud server) including Snow Leopard and above, Windows Outlook and Thunderbird, Linux Thunderbird, and iOS and Android devices - see their compatibility chart(click the blue 'i' for a caveat about Snow Leopard). It's free for one user, two shares, two devices; above that pricing starts at $20 per month. I haven't tried this.

  • Can I use two SIM cards with one iPhone5s? ie, switch phone numbers and plan, same carrier?

    I live where there is no Cell service in remote BC Canada.  Fortunately, we have highspeed Internet!  Thus, I have been using an iPod Touch 4th gen & Skype to make all my calls for a 2 or 3 years.  I travel a couple of times a month into cell coverage.  I plan to use my iPhone 5s on a iPad Data Package when in cell coverage.  I called and asked bell if I could do so if I bought an unlocked iPhone.  I was told yes, but recieving calls would be very expensive.  I have email notification and a phone number where voice mails are emailed to me, so am able to do without recieving calls in most cases.  However, certain situations lead to frustrating telephone tag.
    Just today, after receiving my unlocked iPhone 5s I realised that Bell also has a pay as you use plan that is very reasonably priced for cell calls only.  If I was able to switch SIM cards I could get both plans.  Thus if recieving a call or placing one was important I could just switch my SIM card.  Could that be done reasonably and practically?
    I would appreciate an answer to this question!
    Scott

    Let me see if i got this straight. You have two iDevices. One is an iPad, which uses 3G Data. The other one is an iPhone 5s. You plan on purchasing two plans, One thats has only 3G Data, and the other one that has only phone calls, and messages.The answer to your question is Yes. At least i done that with t-mobile USA. If your iPad is compatible with nano-sim cards, yes you can. If not, you will have to buy an iPad with nano-sim such as the iPad mini 3G. This is totaly possible.

  • Can i use 1 external disk for TM with several Macs ?

    Hi,
    is it possible to use 1 external disk with TM for several macs ?
    Would it result in something like that in this case:
    Backups.backupdb -> Mac1
    Backups.backupdb -> Mac2
    or am i forced to have a single TM disk for each mac ?
    best regards
    fidel

    Hi,
    thank you both for the quick reply.
    The partition idea is not that bad, but as i am not using TM to do a full-backup, nor do i run it daily the disk-usage is not that important for me.
    Till now i have done about 15 backups on my mac pro and the data is < 30 gb
    (based on the excludes)
    basicly i want to use TM only for the case that i need to reinstall Leopard (cause of a broken hd or similar) as i assume that i can use the TM-data in this case.
    the idea to setup TM for restoring deleted files is nice, but i dont really see a reason in my case
    best regards

  • If my computer crashes can I use a backup disk to recover it

    If my computer crashes can I use a backup disk to recover it
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    there are multiple ways to recover OS to factory settings... here are we go.
    1) please try running f11 recovery which will install the OS using recovery partition. thats the easiest way to fix the issue. just tap the f11 key at the time of powering on the computer.
    2) incase F11 is not working and you have created the media, use your own recovert media which was created on same computer.
    3) incase none of them (f11 and self created dvd/cds) work and you have to get DVDs from HP. Order DVDs from HP and use them to re-install OS.
    This should help get the media.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=bph07143
    alternatively, Please visit www.hp.com ; select country from the bottom left handside if you are outside USA.
    now please select "support and drivers" > now click drivers & software> input model number of your computer. (if the list is populated incase similar models are there in this series, select the model you have)
    select the OS you recieved this with computer and click next > now you should get one option "order recovery media - select that and under that you have type of media available. select and media you want.
    incase you have issue in ordering media; you can try after sometime and/or contact HP support to get the media ordered.
    also for few countries or products recovery order online may not be available; in such cases, please visit region/country website ( www.hp.com and select country). click connect with HP and contact HP. email/phone support numbers are available, please contact support team to place an order for your product in specific country(if available).
    hope it helps, Good Luck !!!

  • Can I use an USB disc with my macbook pro bought in 2005.  What capacity will it take 2.00 or 3.00?

    can I use an USB disc with my macbook pro bought in 2005.  What capacity will it take 2.00 or 3.00?

    The first MacBook Pro's were not released until the beginning of 2006, and they had USB 2 ports.
    Anything available new in 2005 would have been a PowerBook G4 and they also had USB 2 ports.
    A USB 3 disk will just transfer data slower then it could do, if you plug it into a USB 2 port though, so you can buy either.

  • Can I use LaCie Multimedia disk to see in TV, iTunes purchased movies?

    Can I use LaCie Multimedia disk to see iTunes purchased movies in TV?
    I share files from iTunes in my local network by authorising 3 computers, but none of these have HDMI connection to TV.
    Can I use LaCie multimedia hard disk to store de movies from iTunes and connect then the Lacie disck to TV via HDMI?
    Once I did it by simply copying an .m4v movie with no result. Also I think some downloaded file from iTunes blocket the HDMI conection to TV.
    Any suggestio or experience...? I know that Apple TV is one solution but I don't want a new artephact and more HDMI connections. (BlueRay, TDT, iPlus etc.)
    Thanks in advance.....

    I have the same problem on my Toshiba TV. Cyrillic subtitles cannot be shown properly. Even symbols like ?, ?, or cannot be shown properly.
    Until now I didnt found solution to this. Reading some other forums other people have described the same problem for Spanish language ( ).
    Firmware is installed to the latest version but problem is still there.
    By the way: can you please test this method and let me know if this works for you.

  • Can I use the install disk on two computers?

    I haven't actually installed it on my computer yet, I just allowed whatever was going to install itself to come up. If I have another computer, can I use the install disk to put OSX on there or not? If so, can I still use it in case I need a backup load of my computer?

    Only if you get a family pack license newer than the installer disk which came with the computer(s) can you install it on multiple computers. Check your license agreement.
    You can't use the disks which came with another computer on a second computer. These articles explain more along those lines:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25517

  • Using a 160GB Disk with Solaris 8

    Hello all:
    I am using an Ultra5 system with OBP 3.25.3, Solaris 8 [10/01]. I have a 160GB Seagate ST3160812A disk drive that I am trying to use as a second drive (primary slave).
    I have installed the drive on the primary channel as a slave and performed boot -r. The /dev and /devices directories correctly setup device links (c0t1d0) for the drive.
    Assuming all was good I tried to create a new file system on slice 0 with "newfs /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s0". This responded with
    /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s0: I/O error
    I then used the "format" command to see what was going on. I can see the drive in the 'format' command:
    #format
    AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS
    0. c0t0d0 <ST320420A cyl 39533 alt 2 hd 16 sec 63>...
    1. c0t1d0 <ST3160812A cyl 255 alt 2 hd 16 sec 255>...
    Specify disk (enter...) : 1
    selecting c0t1d0
    (disk formatted, no defect list found)
    format> quit
    As can be seen the 160GB drive has parameters that are all wrong for this size disk. The #format->verify command output for slice 2 (backup) shows the following:
    ascii name = <ST3160812A cyl 255 alt 2 hd 16 sec 255>
    pcyl = 257
    ncyl = 255
    acyl = 2
    nhead = 16
    nsect = 255
    Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks
    0 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
    1 :: :: ::
    2 backup wu 0 - 254 508.01MB (255/0/0) 1040400
    3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
    7 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
    I recalled that at boot-up the system showed a 'wrong magic number' message on the new drive. I tried to re-label the drive (format->label). The 'magic number' message went away on the next reboot but the 'format->verify' still showed the same thing.
    I have tried several approaches to fix this:
    1. I have read several posts and on-line texts that indicate the 137GB limit associated with LBA addressing for the Ultra5 IDE controllers. I have also read the post "How can I use my 160G Disk?"
    (http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=829&threadID=5065871)
    which provided great information and described using the "format" command to configure the disk with 65535 cylinders.
    When I use the "format->type" command I get the following:
    #format
    format> type
    AVAILABLE DRIVE TYPES:
    0. ST320420A
    1. ST3160812A
    2. other
    According to the "How can I use..." post, I select [2] other and set parameters. When I get to the first parameter to set the cylinders to 65535 I get the following:
    Enter number of data cylinders: 65535
    '65535' is out of range
    a. Using the #format->type {other} function to change the # of cylinders is not accepted by the OS. In fact any value over 32000 cylinders is rejected by the command.
    b. Just in case I also tried using the [1] disk type. I get the message:
    "disk formatted, no defect list found"
    So the suggestion in this post did not work in my case.
    2. Next I tried referring to the post "Sun Ultra 5 Hard Drive"
    (http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=860&threadID=5068466)
    which suggested using the dd command to 'nuke' the disk label and re-label with format. So using the command:
    dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s2 bs1b count =16
    the command is processed properly but when I perform "format->verify"
    the label is unchanged even after I re-execute the "format->label" command. Rebooting the system did not change it either.
    3. I also attempted to use the 'format->part->modify' command to change the partition. When the command gets to the 'Free Hog Partition[6]" prompt I get a 'warning: no space available from Free Hog partition" message.
    4. I also tried using the 'format->part' command to directly modify the specific '2' partition from the partition menu.
    format>part
    partition> 2
    Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks
    2 backup wu 0 - 254 508.01MB (255/0/0) 1040400
    Enter partition id tag[backup]; <return>
    Enter partition permission flags [wu]: <return>
    Enter new starting cylinder cyl[0]: <return>
    Enter partition size [1040400b, 255c, 508.01mb, 0.50gb]: 100g
    '100.00gb is out of range'
    ^D
    For some reason even this command limits the partition size.
    5. My last ditch attempt was to use fdisk -S <geom_file> to set the label geometry with the following parameters in the file:
    pcyl: 65535
    ncyl: 65535
    acyl: 2
    bcyl: 0
    nheads: 16
    nsectors: 255
    secsize: 512
    When I run this command the command core dumps.
    I'm somewhat lost as to what is preventing me from even using the suggestions others have found useful.
    Has anyone successfully used a 160GB Seagate (ST3160812A or other 160GB model) drive with the following?
    (as defined by #showrev and #prtconf)
    system: Ultra5
    OS: Solaris 8 [10.01 assumed based on kernel date]
    Kernel: SunOS 5.8 Generic 108528-13 December 2001
    OBP 3.25.3 2000/06/29 14:12
    kernel architecture: sun4u
    My hardware guy has tried numerous times to get a 120GB drive (which some posts indicated should work without any problems) but they are very hard to find. If I can get the 160GB drive to work (even with 137GB) I'll be happy.
    Thanks for any information.

    Your version of the OBP as well as the Solaris kernel are not the most up-to-date. If the system is stable without the new disk I would upgrade the OBP to the last version (3.31). It may also be worthwhile to patch the kernel with the recommended cluster patches (if you have enough disk space).

    Remember what I said earlier? ""The tricky parts... Then install your wanted version of Mac OS 9""...
    Install is a key word here.
    Launch your latest Mac OS 9 CD and run the Installer targeting the mounted image. I prefer to do a minimum universal install from within the installer. Uncheck items of no use. If your CD is an older version of Mac OS 9, run the following version of an updater. Same can be done to update your utilities so long as there is a updater available for the utility.

    Copying an already installed System Folder, is a bit to be desired, as you have tons of manual trashing (fixing, weeding, etc.) to do.
    <--OR-->
    Bootable CDs normally contain a copy protected System Folder that is equivalent to fooling around with mother nature. It unfortunately leaves you with many CD cake boxes of coasters in the process.

    By the way— A mounted image gets refreshed in a funny way. Drag the mounted image to the trash and "chug-chug". Click on the [your named].img file and a fresh image gets mounted. Just keep an eye on both as you get the feel.

  • How can I erase my hard disk with OS X 10.8.2?

    How can I erase my hard disk with OS X 10.8.2?

    If you want to erase the hard disk and reinstall OS X, follow these steps:
    1. Back up your data to an external disk if you don't want to lose everything. When you erase a hard disk, everything is deleted.
    2. Press Command and R keys while your Mac is starting to start into OS X Recovery, and open Disk Utility.
    3. Select Macintosh HD on the sidebar, go to Erase tab and erase the disk.
    4. After erasing the disk, close Disk Utility and reinstall OS X, so OS X will be installed with factory settings.
    Don't forget to install iLife applications after the installation, if you need them. They come in the Applications DVD (if your Mac came with Snow Leopard or older), or open App Store > Purchases and download them
