i am very new to macs so if you think some of my questions a bit dumb bear with me.
i have my mac mini plugged into my hd plasma tv can i play hd/blueray dvd's and see them how they are meant to be seen. also if i record somthing on my dvd/rec on a rw/dvd the mac tells me it is blank whe it is not any help please
Although this is not an iPhone discussion:
You can play HD-DVD's
it's not competition.
Apple's own professional DVD authoring software DVD Studio Pro 4 allows HD-DVD authoring!
I am DVD Studio Pro certified by I should know this!
Unfortunately though presently Blu-Ray DVD playback on a Mac is not supported Although Blu-Ray DVD read&write of data on a Mac is supported through Roxio Toast (along w/ a blu-ray DVD drive of course
FWIW, WMV is competition although it can be played on a Mac

Can you play a dvd without front row?
hey,
Is it possible to just insert a DVD and select the DVD player app to look at it or do you have to go through the front row DVD player?
Sorry if this is a strange or stupid question. I am currently a windows XP user.
Thanks
BjornYou can also set your computer to auto load the DVD Player when you insert a DVD.
Go to System Preferences under the Apple menu.
Click the CDs and DVDs Preference Pane.
Using the drop down menus you can set the applications you would like your Mac to use when you insert specific kinds of disks. -
How do you play movie on a blu ray from the iPad ?
Subject of your posts seems to be asking if you can take movies from the iPad and play them on a BluRay player. No, you can't, though there are ways to connect your iPad to a television. The body of your post seems to be asking if you can take BluRay movies and play them on your iPad. No. Commercial DVDs are encrypted. In order to make a copy, you'd need to break that encryption. That's illegal in the U.S., so, we're not able to talk about it on this forum. Sorry.

Can You Play Alternate DVD Audio Tracks on Your Mac?
Some commercial releases have alternate audio tracks, such as "Jaws" which in one recent edition features the ability to choose the original theatrical mono track.
Is there any way of choosing this when DVD Player opens on your Mac?
Thanks
TomIf you click and hold down the mouse button on the Speaker Icon in the DVD Player controls, a drop down menu will appear to let you select the Audio Menu:
and then make your choice there, is that what you wanted to do?

I can't play a DVD from my superdrive via my macbook pro to apple TV via airplay.
I can't play a DVD from my superdrive via my macbook pro to apple TV via airplay. The movie plays fine on the macbook if I'm not trying to airplay. The airplay works fine if I'm not trying to play a movie from the superdrive. I think my apple TV is Gen 2.
If you get a checkerboard pattern it's because Apple block Airplay Mirroring of protected media.
VLC Player may work.

Can you play Diablo with the PC disk or is there a separate disk just for Mac?
Can you play Diablo with the PC disk or is there a separate disk just for Mac?
Hi DJNIKKo,
I have the Diablo III install DVD - it's both Mac & PC install.
But warning - many players (on a PC board) dislike the game & stopped playing it already...
I played thru all the chars on 'normal' and started playing the 2nd difficulty, but running away (=being chased) by enemies is NOT my style of playing a game...
Check some youTube videos & see if that's what you want to do...
The ratio of hit points (HP) for enemies is:
1. normal - 20 HP
2.nightmare - 6000 HP
3.**** - 150 000 HP
4.inferno - 1 000 000 HP
This is for the same enemy...
(I have the Diablo 3 walkthru guide).
So this game is't for me... -

Can You Play Multiple Playlists Without User Intervention
Can you stack and play multiple playlists? ie if you had three playlists of 50 songs each, could you pick all three, play all the songs in the first playlist, when it is finished move automatically to the second playlist play its songs then automatically move to the third without user intervention? And if so, can you play each of these in shuffle mode?
There's no "impromptu" method of doing so that I know of.
As far as un-impromptu methods (it's always fun inventing words), it will depend on whether you want to listen to this mega-playlist on an iPod or just with iTunes.
If it's just with iTunes, you can go to the File menu > New Folder command and create a new folder which we can call the Mega-Playlist folder. Drag the three playlists in question into that folder. When you select that folder and press Play, iTunes should go through all the songs.
If it's on an iPod, since Folders don't transfer over from iTunes, the only solution I know of would be to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes that will -
Match any of the following rules:
Playlist is the first playlist +
Playlist is the second playlist +
Playlist is the third playlist.
Synching this mega-playlist to your iPod will allow you to select it from the Playlist menu.
Shuffle mode would shuffle songs from all three playlists together, not shuffle songs from the first playlist before moving on to shuffling songs from the second playlist before shuffling songs from the third playlist. -

can you play pkr.com poker on the ipad 2
As it appears to be a flash-based site, and as flash is not supported on the iPad (language was stated as English), no.

How can you install the DVD or CD Sharing Setup software?
How can you install the DVD or CD Sharing Setup software for a computer running MAC OSX 10.4.11 if you do not have a MacBook Air?
You'll find the software you're looking for here:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/dvdorcdsharingsetupupdateformac.html
However, say for example you install this on your iMac G4 or Windows XP PC (you'll need to get the link for that one yourself), are you planning to try to share the drive with an iBook or other non-MacBook Air computer? If this is your case, I'm not shure if it can be done with that software. I'll need to get back to you on that one. -
I have a Macbook Air (july 2012) with OS X 10.8.3 installed. I have dvds with .vob files and have Quicktime Version 10.2 (603.12). I can't play the DVDs. There are some features of QT that I like, e.g. precise frame selection and save as .png file-help. Am I missing some Apple software? I thought QT for Mountain Lion could convert the .vob files - is there some setting that I have missed?
Any suggestions that preserves a simple workflow much appreciated.arthur wrote:

If you switch your mac to pc can you play Pc games?
I was curous, when you switch your mac with bootcamp, can you play games that play on the PC?
If you mean if you have a Windows partition using BootCamp... you can use Windows to play games for a PC.
It's not switching your Mac to PC. Using BootCamp you will have the option to boot into Mac OS X or Windows.
If you have't used BootCamp yet, read the installation and setup guide.
