Cannot get Sims to play on my Macbook Pro 10.6

I have put the Sims Medieval disk into my Mac and it will make a noise like it is tryint to load it, but then it just spits it back out. I looked in the instructions and it says that I need to put the disk in and a disk icon should appear on my desktop and I need to click it, but that never happens. My disk says WIN/MAC DVD ROM. I am assuming that means that it is compatiable with a MAC. Can someone help with this. Is there some sort of driver that I need to download?

    I suspect security software or a firewall is your problem.

  • I cannot get facebook to load on my Macbook pro

    For the last 4 days, I cannot get facebook to load on my Macbook Pro.  The only problem I can see is that I cleared the cookies and cleared the browsing history around the same time.  I can see the Zynga cookies are still in place but the games won't load once I can actually get facebook to load.  Sometimes other websites won't load either.  I am at a loss.
    So, does anyone have an idea on how to get Safari to actually work so that I can get back on facebook?

  • Cannot get into icloud on my new macbook pro

    I have just bought a MAC Book Pro and had to change my apple id password. I now cannot synch with my ipad and iphone as apparently cannot change icloud password. What to do?

    You have to sign out on each device by going to Settings>iCloud and clicking 'Delete account' (this does not delete anything from the server). Then sign in again with the new ID.

  • I can't get video attachments in gmail to play on my macbook pro.  2 month old macbook pro running lion. says format not supported

    I can't get video attachments in gmail to play on my macbook pro.  Says format not supported. 

    What kind of video?  There are dozens of formats, some don't play on a Mac unless you have the right plug-ins for Quicktime.  There are some things you should download to help you out.

    These should cover EVERYTHING you'd ever encounter (though maybe not).  Frankly, if it's not H.264 or w4v (or both), it doesn't belong on your mac. 

  • I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R but will not play on my MacBook Pro. I have already recorded multiple DVDs. How can I get it to play on my Mac?

    I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R but will not play on my MacBook Pro. I have already recorded multiple DVDs. How can I get it to play on my Mac?

    "I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R"
    How? Using what equipment/software?
    "The DVD  plays on the device on which it was recorded."
    Just a guess: You're using a VCR-DVD combo recorder. DVDs produced in this way will play on the device that made them, but won't play on anything else until they're "finalized." In fact, Macs will recognize unfinalized DVDs as blank discs until the discs are finalized. Check the manual that came with the recording device for instructions.

  • Dropbox: I cannot get video to play and cannot share pictures with those who do not have Dropbox installed.

    Dropbox: I cannot get video to play and cannot share pictures or video with those who do not have Dropbox installed.
    iMAC
    I am running OSX 10.6.8
    Processor:    3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory:      4GB

    To share either select the link (paperclip) icon on the right of the file or folder list.
    Cut and paste the link into an email you send your friends. Do not use the "share this" option in Dropbox as it forces them to join.
    You can test it after deleting your browser cache and cookies - you will no longer be signed in to Dropbox but the link should work fine.
    Hope this helps !

    Welcome to the Apple Community Tarskforce.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
    The following article(s) may help you.

  • Inserted a png PIP into my clip, can see it fine, can see it playing with the clip as expected when moving the play head manually, but cannot get it to play with the clip for preview, pleas help!

    I am sorry if my inquiry here seem dumb but I am a new iMovie user and cannot figure this out.  I inserted a png image into my video clip in the project as PIP, I can see it and move it and can also see it playing with the main clip if I move the play head manually, I can also see the PIP part only playing along with the undelying main clip if I use the Play button in the preview window when the PIP section is selected, however, for the life of me I cannot get it to play with the main clip all together for previewing the entire video via the video play button.  What happens is that the video plays normally and when the PIP section comes in, the video clip stop all motion during the duration of the PIP section and the PIP image itself is simply NOT showing.  Am I missing something really stupid here?  It seems as it the Picture On Picture is a separate clip that plays with the underlying main video clip if selected and played by itself but it is not part of the video clip and will not play with it.  What am I missing here, can anyone please help?

    The easiest way to get up and running is to convert your MP3s to MP4s (obviously there won't be a video track). The following link links to a file that was an MP3 that I converted to an MP4 using QT Player Pro. When you go to export the files, make sure you click on "Options" and then check the box for "Enable Streaming" in the Streaming tab. It should stream flawlessly using QT Player. rtsp://rhsstreamit.rih.org/testmp4/Scorpion.mp4
    Make sure you place the media to be streamed in the proper folder. You should only get a "404" message if the physical file doesn't exist.
    Good luck!

  • Created a movie in IMOVIE and transferred it to dvd but cannot get it to play on my dvd player.  i downloaded the free Burn program since i don't have idvd on my new mac  the dvd comes up disk error or cannot read

    created a movie in IMOVIE and transferred it to dvd but cannot get it to play on my dvd player.  i downloaded the free Burn program since i don't have idvd on my new mac  the dvd comes up disk error or cannot read.  I am using a dvd-r dvd and my dvd player says that it uses this type of dvd.  Any suggestions.  I spoke to an Apple Support person who helped me burn the dvd but it still didn't work...help???

    There's a difference between a data DVD, and a DVD-Video.  I believe you made a data DVD, which can't be played in a video player.  The Burn feature of the Finder can't author a DVD-V, just data discs.   
    I assume you made a Project, and put clips from your Event Library into the Project.  But then, how did you output your Project, using the SHARE menu? 
    When I pull down iMovie '11s SHARE menu, "iDVD..." is one of the options.  It's the job of iDVD to make the menu that appears when you insert a DVD into your player (that says the title, and chapters, and extras, etc.).  You need software that will made a DVD-V disc.  Lacking that, you might be able to go to Share/Export Movie... or Share/Export using QuickTime... to get your video into a format that software like Roxio's Toast could burn.

    I'm sorry but what is a who thing?
    If you are just having problems getting youtube to play on your phone, I would start with shutting down all the apps sitting in the multitask tray, then I would do a reset, and if that doesn't work I would do a network settings reset.
    If you are having problems runnig Youtube over your own wifi network, I would throw in a router restart and see if that helps.

  • I cannot get music to play on my iPhoto slideshows.

    Using OSX, itunes 10 and iphoto 9 .
    I cannot get music to play on iphoto slideshows. It never used to be a problem before OS10.
    Desperate and would really appreciate any help.
    many thanks
    <Edited by Host>

    You may access your iTunes music iin iphoto
    You may also access it in other apps - like iMovie
    If - for some reason - you can access the music in iMovie but not in iPhoto, then the issue is with iPhoto.
    If you can't access it in either then the issue is with iTunes.

  • Since Yosemity and new iTunes i cannot play movies on macbook pro (missing HDCP ability)? Why is that?

    Since Yosemity and new iTunes i cannot play movies on macbook pro (missing HDCP ability)? Why is that?
    regards Peter

    Yesterday I had Apple phone support, they could partly solve the problem. At least I can use my Mac again to view movies but the problem of less resolution in itunes only is still there. My brother has the same macbook, same yosemity and same itunes. It works. Obviously it has to do with other SW on the Mac. Yesterday we removed Displaylink SW (i believe that was the name of the SW?) from my Mac. Perhaps it is not yet compatible with yosemity?
