Switch Default Burner Drive?

Does anyone know how to change the default location of the CD burner...itunes sends the burn request to a CD burner drive that does not work and I don't know how to change it to my new HP external DVD/CD burner (called the H drive)

I would like to know as well. You'd think that would be a simple menu operation, like in Toast...

Can you change default burn output in DVDSP?

Hi All
I got a dual layer external burner (lacie D2) for my G5 dual2 which has a single layer superdrive inside. I encoded the movie file with Compressor, imported the assets to DVDSP and clicked burn as i usually do. DVDSP spits out the superdrive tray and asks for some suitable media to be placed in there, as it normally does.
Q> How can I make DVDSP address the Lacie, when I click burn, instead of the G5 superdrive.?
Cheers
Jamie

A> You can't
Although the drive on the computer opens as usual you should be able to open the external drive, insert a blank DVD, close it and *in theory DVDSP should burn it. OR if you already have a blank DVD in the External drive before you try to burn in DVDSP then when you click burn your internal drive should not even open. If you have a blank DVD in the internal drive and a blank DVD in the External drive then DVDSP will burn a DVD onto the internal drive. I'm not %100 sure but try it out!
Another alternative is to build the DVD in DVDSP and use Toast to format to the external drive. This is the preferred method since you can set the burn speed (DVDSP burns at the highest speed which increases the risk of burning coasters).
Something else you might of wanted to consider is acquiring a Dual-Layer internal drive...

Please Help! It's Happened Again - Quality Changed in Burning

I am sorry to repost this, but I am really hoping someone can help me! I didn't get a response to the message below about the quality of my burned CD's suddenly changing, and it has happened again - again with music purchased from iTunes.
Any help appreciated!! Thank you!!
Hi all~
Though I am no computer expert, I've been burning CDs from iTunes for ages without problems until today. I purchased some songs from iTunes yesterday and burned an audio CD from iTunes today. For the first time, the quality was waaay off - with pops, semi-stutters, etc. This is true whether I play it in iTunes or Windows Media.
After looking around this forum, I changed the burn speed down to 8x (first tried at "Maximum Possible" which was my previous default setting). Same problem.
Now the odd part - to try to see if it was my internal CD burner, I manually copied the music files using Windows Explorer and burned yet another CD that way. Obviously, these are M4P files that can only be played by iTunes. However, when I opened up iTunes, it cant see that CD . . . which confused me. On the other hand, when I use Windows Explorer to manually look at the CD folder and tell it to open the music track using iTunes, it works. And then the song plays flawlessly in iTunes.
So near as I can tell, this appears to be an issue now with how iTunes is burning audio CDs . . . which appears to have changed in the last couple of weeks . . . though I dont recall having changed anything on my computer in that time.
Any help?!
Thanks - balithai

To change the JDBC driver for a single OC4J instance

Hello,
I implemeted an app with oracle adf (Jdeveloper 10.1.2 ) and it use Oracle Domain objects.
I have an oas 10g (9.04.1) in windows
and I want to change the default jdbc driver for a single oc4j instance
in metalink i found the following information:
1.- From OTN, download and copy the 10.1.0.x JDBC driver to a directory on the server. E.g OH/newjdbc
2.- Opening EM-Website, navigate to the OC4J instance that should be altered.
3.- Find the "Java-Options" and, add the -Xbootclasspath option to it, pointing to the new JDBC driver.
E.g. -Xbootclasspath/p:$OH/newjdbc/ojdbc14.jar
4.- Restart the OC4J instance
my 'Java-optios' default is
-server -Xrs -Djava.security.policy=C:\oracle\904\j2ee\test_adf\config\java2.policy -Djava.awt.headless=true
my new 'Java optios' now is
-server -Xrs -Djava.security.policy=C:\oracle\904\j2ee\test_adf\config\java2.policy -Djava.awt.headless=true -Xbootclasspath/p = D:\jdev1012\jdbc\lib\classes12.jar
is this correct?
now I cannot deploy my app
Rigoberto

Seems you missed something in step 3. From those steps the driver should be installed under C:\oracle\904\newjdbc and used in classpath, not d:\jdev1012.

A WAY TO CHANGE THE BURN SPEED????

Hi,
I posted a similar question before, but didnt get a definative answer... I'll ask it in a more concise way. Is there a way to change the burn speed in DVD SP2? I didn't see any settings relating to that.
Thanks,
Lisa

There is a work around. In DVD Pro, "format" with the output device set to disc and the format to ".img". When this is finished, open Disk Utility and "convert" the .img file to a CD/DVD master (.cdr). This file can then be used to burn to a blank DVD. If you click the options arrow in the burn dialog before beginning the burn, you can select a speed other than "maximum". Not elegant, but it works. My HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GWA-4165B DVD drive only succeeds at burning at its maximum rate about 1/3 of the time. However, at 12X it has been quite reliable.

"Browse"button couldn't change to "Burn Disc"

itunes 7,Disc Driver DVD+-RW connected via usb and and recognized by itunes,windows XP Pro, mp3 songs authorized,creat playlist in itunes.
after inserting a blank disc, itunes shows me to choose the songs in playlist and to burn. But "Browse"button couldn't change to "Burn Disc", failed.

I have a similar issue. For me at least, it seems that I cannot move songs from my ipod into new playlists (and therefore the browse button does not change to burn). This is a recent development, in the last couple of days. I.e., I was previously able to create a new playlist and move songs into it for burning to CD. So, this does not pose any answer to your question, I just have a similar issue: the burn. Does anyone know of a solution?

I'm trying to download iTunes to an external harddrive but it wont let me change to this drive. WHY?

I'm trying to download iTunes to an external harddrive but it wont let me change to this drive. WHY?
There isn't enough room on my laptop and I have deleted all traces of previous iTunes

I think you've misunderstood.
iTunes ONLY works on the C drive. There is no moving it. End of discussion.
The MEDIA can be house on any other drive (internal or external).
Install iTunes correctly using the default options.
Once it is installed and working correctly with everything on the C drive, close iTunes.
Follow the instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1364 to move the iTunes media folder.

How do I choose a default startup drive?

I have two startup drives on my Hard Drive. One is Snow Leopard and the other is Leopard. I need Leopard for some printing issues with Photoshop and Epson. How do I choose a default startup drive? Most of the time I want the Snow Leopard drive at startup but it seems to always start up on Leopard. I need to always hold down the option key at startup. Sometimes I forget.

noondaywitch wrote:
System Preferences > Startup Dive > select the drive with 10.6.x I suspect you may need to do that for both systems. Click the lock to prevent further changes, then do an option-boot and ensure it'll let you start from the other.
Macs store a reference to the default startup drive set in System Preferences > Startup Drive in PRAM, so you don't have to set it individually for each drive or partition -- as long as the selected one is available at startup time, that is the one the Mac will start up from. (Otherwise, it will be the first available one found. If none capable of starting up the Mac are found instead the flashing slashed circle with the question mark in it won't go away, indicating the Mac is still waiting for you to make one available, for instance by powering up an attached external drive or inserting a bootable DVD.)
The option key startup method temporarily overrides this & allows you to choose another drive or partition, but just for that startup -- the next time you start up normally, it will revert to the selected one.
Also, the lock in System Preferences has nothing to do with making preference settings permanent or persistent. It is just a security feature to prevent unauthorized users from making changes from an already logged in user account. For instance, it makes no difference if the lock is closed or open at startup time, because that is before the OS is running or able to check preference file settings stored on disks. During the early stages of the boot process, code resident in firmware checks for depressed keys & buttons before loading the OS from the default source set in PRAM. This is how it decides if it should instead run the Startup Manager (evoked by the option key), first eject a CD or DVD (evoked by the eject key or primary mouse button), or start up from an alternate source like an installer DVD (evoked by the C key).

Change default upload file destination?

When I upload photo files from a camera card, LR automatically comes up with a default file location under "My Pictures" (Windows XP). I file all my photos on an E: drive and it takes a bunch of mouse clicks to get there. Is there any way to change the LR default destination drive?

This may be OS related. On my Mac OS X 10.4.9, the "sticky" setting is saved between sessions. I just looked.
Now, I wasn't importing from a card. Just deleting and re-importing from a hard drive. But my experience as near as I can recall is that the changed setting for destination is "remembered" from one import to another.

Backup Recovery & Changed Recovery Partition Drive

Product    : HP Pavilion dv6-6c10us
OS      : Windows 7 64-bit
Error       : Cannot create Factory Default Back-Ups/Laptop Recovery Back-Ups
Changes : Recovery Partition on D drive changed to F drive
Question : What is the process of telling the HP programs and the laptop itself that the recovery partition is now on the F
                    drive?
                    I made a back-up of the Recovery partition before I changed drives. I did not make a back-up of the factory set-up
                    back-up (5 dvds). All newly added programs from my XP 32-bit desktop are now on the D partition.

I changed the drive letters with Windows 7 disk manager using the drive letter change options. I can put the Recovery drive back to drive D and the recovery options would work fine. But I wanted it as another drive letter because my programs from the other pc were installed to that letter and it was just easy to reinstall most of the programs back that way. Of course I had to bump the disk drive down a letter too so that the hdd stuff was right beside each other. Everything is fine, besides recovery on my settings. I just want to tell the computer that the recovery partition is on another partition for the HP program to be able to know where it is again.

Default VGA driver can let me increase resolution between '800x600' to '1024X 768'?

Hi,
I was told that the initial VGA is an standard,
800x600 or similar, only gives me the option to show image but not some other possibilities like external display, clone display and those stuffs.
The specific VGA (FX 5200) driver, give to your rig the "possibility" to address all the image process to an specific device, in this case, the FX 5200 and add some extra functions like external display (at different resolutions),
clone display, extend display...and those stuffs.
However, I noticed that while using the default VGA driver, then I could increase 'resolution from '800X600' to 1024x768 Pixels. Also, the 'colour quality' to 32Bit or 16Bit, although it is intial, standard
VGA, I could change the resolution.
Thus, my questions are:
First: what benefit is there from instlling the driver of the default VGA as long as I can change the screen resolution into '1024X 768' while using default VGA driver, which means that icons, and display would be OK??
Second: With using a default VGA driver on
any Computer, there are only '800x600' to '1024X 768'? (I.e. The resolution of all default monitor can be only between 800x600 and '1024X 768'?
A man should convert his anger and sadness into strength to continue living in this life.

For best performance and appearance, it's prudent to install the latest video adapter driver available from the
support web site of the manufacturer of the video chip.

Changing default sample rate breaks Pulseaudio

When I change default sample rate from s16le to s24le which my card supports (and it always worked under Ubuntu) Pulseaudio goes bananas and doesn't play any sound in Firefox and Spotify, but works in Audacious or for system sounds (like speaker test from Gnome settings).
Output of pulseaudio -vvvv in default settings:

Thanks. That will also be nice in that I won't have to re-do all of my saved screensets every time.
Is there an easy way to open templates? I ask because Logic requires them to be saved to the "Project Template" folder, whereas I have all of my music stuff saved on an external firewire drive. Also, templates don't appear to show up under the "open recent" menu so I'm wondering if I'm going to have to go into that folder every time I need to use that template.

Is it Possible to change the DVD drive to Bluray for HP Pavilion dv6-6176sx

Hi All,
Is it Possible to change the DVD drive to Bluray for HP Pavilion dv6-6176sx Entertainment Notebook PC?
Thanks
This question was solved.

Sure it is not even very difficult. Do you just need a BR reader or a burner/reader? The replacement disk drive will be $80-120 or so, maybe a bit less. You can find them on eBay. You can use a generic one but that may require some reworking of the faceplate or just get an original dv6-6000 BR drive on eBay. Swaps out with a couple screws on the bottom; slide out and slide in the replacement. You will need new software to play BR movies, of course.

I am changing my hard drive and want to copy my old hard drive to the new one.

I went to the apple store with a bad hard drive in my macbook pro. The apple store said change the hard drive, they did, but I wanted to save the old hard drive to get everything off of it. So, I borrowed a sata enclosure and I was able to get everything from the orignial drive (which wasn't really broken) onto my external harddrive. Then I started up the Computer, but didn't use the Migration Assistant (Dumb, I know). Now I need to get everything that was on the original drive and put it where it is suppose to go. Is there a simple solution?

If this external drive is a boot drive (has the OSX on it), you can swap it into your MBP or use Disk Utility>Restore to clone the data to the internal MBP HDD.
Ciao.
