Cannot read DVD+R with GWA 4080M firmware AA26 (macbook pro 1.1)

Hi everybody,
I have a macbook pro 1.1 with a drive GWA 4080M (firmware AA26). Since a few weeks I cannot read anymore some DVD+R (Sony DVD+R media code D21).
1) One of these media burned with my other macbook pro (2.2 drive Matshita UJ-857D firmware KCVB) using the finder (so ISO9660,joliet,UDF and mode 1, booktype DVD-ROM) cannot be read on the MBP 1.1 - The same DVD is properly read on other mac or PC even on my old dell PC of 2003). I used the finder to burn it.
2) The very same media burn (data), burned using the finder as well, are read if burned by an other burner (Mac quad core, with SONY DVD RW DW-D150G). The disk seems to be similar (ISO9660,joliet,UDF, mode 1, booktype to DVD-ROM).
Actually the bitsetting (I learn what it was from wikipedia yesterday) seems to be done by default on mac (both of the burner).
3) A DVD+R (still same media) is burned properly on the MBP 1.1 with GWA 4080M drive, and readable everywhere.
4) The Matshita UJ-857D has not received the superdrive 2.1 update (if applicable, that seems to triggers problems). I experience no problem in burning or reading with this drive except this one.
I tried to reset the I repaired the permissions (there was nothing to be done anyway), I also reset PRAM and NVRAM (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238)
and SMC
(http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303319)
and it did not helps
Last point the problem is the same under windows (bootcamp) and mac!
I would be very grateful if someone has a suggestion to fix or at least!
Thank you in advance

my same problem..
how come we can't get an answer on this?

yes it does - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC623Z/A/iLife-11
iWeb and iDVD
iLife ’11 also includes iWeb and iDVD for creating instant websites and burning your own DVDs.
Note: iDVD and iWeb are included in the iLife '11 single-user and family pack box, but they are not included on new Mac computers.

Cannot read DVD

It probably does not have to do anything with the software, but my MacBook Pro does not read the DVD. Any suggestions?

Try turning off the computer and shooting compressed air into the CD drive (use a compressed air can, or 60psi on a compressor.) Then turn the computer back on and try your DVD again. It took me 3 or 4 tries, but it eventually worked like a charm. (NOTE: If you leave your computer on while you do this, you may hit a shock switch, which will cause your drive to act "broken". If this happens, power off the hard ware and power it back on, and It should work again.)
Hope this helped!

I changed my wireless broadband to a landline-base DSL wifi and it works like a charm. Sun was the culprit even you fiddle with its router and disable firewall, it won't work.
try changing yours too and let me know how it goes.

My eyes just glazed over...Please in the future break down each of your issues with paragraphs separated by two carriage returns. It would be much easier when trying to address your issues.
Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Mouse
And edit your mouse settings to do what you want it to do.
Secondly, this is not the place to vent. If you have a complaint, there is:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
or http://www.apple.com/contact/
We are just end users here helping other end users.
Third, from my understanding, it would appear you are concerned about the noise the hard drive makes when it falls asleep? Why not put your machine in screen saver mode instead? Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver turn off all Energy Saver settings, or set them to run Never.
Fourth, if your machine was purchased just a few days ago, you may still be able to get an exchange from the store, quicker than you can get a repair done. You may want to look into that possibility.
Fifth, it does appear you found the Logic forum. I would persist in asking there how to solve your technical issue with Logic regarding the audio. It may be you don't have to do anything special to the hard drive. Remember audio can be transmitted by wire, avoiding ambient sounds.
Good luck!

Do you have your system backed up to Time Machine? If so, you can open your user Library and copy your Mail folder from Time Machine to your Desktop on your new machine; then copy THAT folder to your new machine's user Library.
To get to your user Library, open Finder and Go and press the Option key. Library will show up. Click on it to get into your user Library. Now go into Time Machine and you should see your user Library for Time Machine. Restore the Mail folder to your Desktop.

Since Mavericks update my iPhone and iPad calendars are NOT syncing with the calendar on my MacBook Pro

Since Mavericks update my iPhone and iPad calendars
are NOT syncing with the calendar on my MacBook Pro.
I used to use iTunes but don't see the options now.
Does anyone know how to set up a sync.?

I have temporarily solved the sync problem by using an older MBAir running snow leopard, I exported
both calendar and contacts and imported them in the MBA and synced normally.
Since I'm not about to send my data on the cloud, or setup a server to just sync my iphone,
I think this is a good workaround ! BTW I stopped updating my contacts and calendar on the MB, I only
update the iphone until a permanent solution is found !
And they better come up with one soon, because I'll just switch to an Android phone and Ubuntu linux for my MBP, Apple should make our lives easier, not harder !
I'm sure Samsung is having a ball ever since the sync issue was made public !
Hopefully Apple is listening and will make things right again !

I tried to airdrop Civilization V from a Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion to a Macbook Pro with Lion and it doesn't work. Other apps have but Civ V has not.

Likely because it's a not self contained and/or it's game and copy protected, so install it via the developers instructions instead, which likely means it will have ot be uninstalled off the first machine, the developer contacted for a new license key before installing on the newer machine.
If you want it on both machines, you will need to likely buy another license.
Most developers are fine with transfering license between machines, you have to contact them.
They just want to make sure it's only on one machine so they are not getting robbed.

How do I delete my user ID photo, taken with the camera in the MacBook Pro (when you first buy and set up the computer...). The photo keeps appearing randomly, even after I've changed it to a "better picture". I can't get the change to "stick". Anyone else having trouble with this? Thanks!

I am having the exact same problem with the iMessage on both my MacBook pro and my iphone4. It either says the username/password is incorrect or it can not contact the server. Facetime and iCloud works just fine with the same apple id and password. Somebody please help, I am beyond frustrated!
