Copy DVD on my Powerbook and region problem

I'm travelling a lot so I'd like to copy some DVDs on my laptop to see them without having with me the DVDs. But after I did the copy with the "Duplicate" in the finder it does't work.
I also bought a dvd here in US and I discovered that I can change my region only 3 more times. Is there a solution to play the DVDs from everywhere and to watch them copied on the hard drive?

Look for "dvd ripping osx" with google.

File copy with 2 IDE Drive and Soundblaster problem

Hi,
When i try to copy large files my system will usually lock (windows totally freezes, the only solution is to do a hard reset). I cut the problem down to beeing an issue with my sound blaster live platinum 5.1.
Everything is working fine when I remove the soundblaster.
I read somewhere that this problem was known with former motherboard with VIA chipset like KT133 but I was hoping it had been fixed since then...
Here's my config :
KT6 Delta 2 FISR
Athlon Barton 2500+
512 Mo RAM
2 IDE Drive (not on the same IDE connector)
Creative Live Sound Blaster Platinum 5.1 (CT4830)
I have upgraded all the possible drivers : VIA4in1 (v4.51), latest BIOS upgrade (E6590v2.0), latest creative drivers....
I tried a lot of different settings in the BIOS (PCI latency, PCI bus mastering etc...)
This is really anoying...
Please help !!!

change pci latency to 96.
change "system performance setting" within DRAM settings to "FAST"
you could also;
try changing "System Bios Cachable" to "Enabled"
and change "C000 Shadow" to "Cacheable"
im using all those above settings, and thats with ALOT of drives attached as well, and ive been copying 20+GB files all over the place including over network drives.

I have a DVD-Rom and DVD-Video card for Powerbook and need advice

I acquired 2 accessory components for a G3 series powerbook. I have a dual G4 so have no use for them. There is a M4743 DVD-Rom for Powerbook and a DVD-Video PC card for G3 series Powerbook family M5163. There is also a software CD. I would like to sell them but I really don’t how to explain what this stuff does. I tried Ebay and did not find any matches. Does this make a DVD upgrade for a particular Powerbook? Is something else required? Is Ebay the best place to sell? Any idea what this stuff is worth? Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Bob

Robert,
You apparently have the DVD Video Player Kit for the Powerbook G3 Series "Wallstreet" M4753.
This is the DVD-ROM module:
http://www.powerbookmedic.com/xcart1/customer/product.php?productid=16219&cat=26 6&page=1
This is the DVD Decoder PC card:
http://www.ifixit.com/cart/customer/product.php?productid=296&cat=&page=1
The above DVD PC card is not Apple's but there were two third-party vendors who also offered a DVD kit...VST and MCE. They all served the same purpose and will all be priced similarly.
Both PC card and optical drive are required to play DVD movies on the Wallstreet, plus Apple DVD Player is only supported when booted to 9.x, not 10.x.
I really cannot give you a fair price to ask; the above hardware prices are probably high but you will get an idea.

Can't copy dvd's

I want to copy dvds, mostly my own which includes dvd copies of VHS movies I wrote as well as home dvds. I tested DVD-Cloner based on reviews but it seems to only copy dvds it wants to and others it won't. There's no pattern and their support said "sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't." Any suggestions appreciated...why won't it work on my 2011 iMac? And what does?

Hi Jim, see if any of these help...

Copy and Paste problem in Leopard

I am archiving thousands of pict files to dvd, in OS 9.2 I simply open the window select all files, then copy all the file names and paste into my dvd cover index in Pages. This has worked fine.
The problem is in Leopard it copys the actual files, not the names.
Can you help.
Mike

I am not overly familiar with what you are trying to do, but it sounds like you could just create and alias of each file and copy that to the DVD.
• Select file
• Right-click / Control-click
• Select 'Make Alias'
I encounter similar requirements for cataloging large numbers of files spread across multiple disks/CDs/DVDs and use CD Finder (http://www.cdfinder.de/), which has proven to be perfect for over 3 years now.

I made a DVD with photo's and music. On my Powerbook G4 he plays perfect. But after burning the project on my LaCie d2 lightscribe and show the project on my TV than after 10 min. the music stops for a few seconds.

I made a DVD with photo's and music. On my Powerbook G4 he plays perfect. But after burning the project on my LaCie d2 lightscribe and showing the project on my TV than: after 10 min. the music stops for a few seconds. On the screen of the DVD-player I can see that after the word 'play' the clock starts again with counting the time. I tried everything: * burning slow. * all programs stopped, except iDVD. * all other apparature uncoupled. Is this a problem of my iDVD-program or my LaCie burner?

mishmumken is correct about the 99 slides. There's an 99 chapter limit in each slideshow for DVDs and each photo is considered a chapter. iDVD gets around that by renaming slide 100 back to 1 and goes on.
The pause can be minimized (but not eliminated) by burning to disk at the slowest speed available: usually 4x or 2x. Save the project to disk (File ➙ Save to Disk menu option) and play the disk image with DVD player to check out the transition at 99 and 198. Then burn the disk image to disk with Disk Utility at the slowest speed possible. Also use top quality media: Verbatium, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

I bought a movie with the digital copy and it gives me option to redeem it with iTunes, but when I type in the redeem code it shows a message saying: " you must insert your digital copy dvd in this computer in order to redeem this code" . The dvd is in. WTH? This is especially with FOX movies, I never have trouble with Universal Picture movies.

Thanks for your reply, but you might have misunderstood it a bit. I'm NOT trying to buy a movie. ****, I'm not even in the actual Apple Store, when this happens I'm in the library not the Store part of iTunes.
To clarify - I have purchased a physical copy of a movie which came with another physical copy which contains the digital copy. The digital copy is on the DVD, all I need is just to transfer this file to my iPod Touch, for example, I'm not trying to download it from the store or repurchase it and it's not any gift code that I've received, the digital copy is on the disc. This is the first time ever that I've purchased something on a disc and I'm not allowed to access it because the disc hasn't been purchased within my country.
So again - I'm not attempting any purchase or download any purchased digital copy - it's on a DVD I own physically so... why is even the region of my Store relevant, the code I enter is (as I assume) just supposed to check if it's a legal genuine copy (which it is, as I've said - there are 6 discs in the pack: 3 movies on 3 Blu-rays and 3 DVD containing these digital copies of them). If I own it, I think that's proof enough that I have the right to use it. I just don't get it. I fully agree with you and understand your point if there was any purchase going on here, but it's not, it's just - I put a disc into my computer and I can't access it

Dear ladies and gentlemen!
I recently received on my notebook, operating system 8.1, the message "Adobe Acrobat is no longer working properly". I also found myself that I can copy from einerPDF file excerpts not without problems in another document. My Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro has released version 9.0.0. Two updates this version is not listed. Please inform me how I can fix this problem.
Sincerely, Walter Hacksteiner
mailto: [email protected]

The first thing I would try is to update Acrobat 9 to the latest version 9.5.5
The next thing would be to run Acrobat 9 in Windows 7 or Vista or XP Compatibility Mode.

CD/DVD drive does not read all DVD formats and regions

Hi
My Teac-dw-224e-a does not read all DVDs formats and regions.
It does read CDs but no DVDs at all.
Not DVD-R and not even regular DVDs. I have checked the region of the DVD.
I have reinstalled the driver and also tried with different software.
What can I do?
Please help!

Hi
It is possible that your DVD drive has wrong region settings.
In this case it is not able to watch all possible DVD movies from different regions.
Of course you can change the settings 4 times. But after this changing the settings are fixed and its not possible to change it anymore.

Indesign CS3 - copy paste and export problem

When I try to copy text in Indesign CS3 and paste it in Word 2007 - or even in notepad - nothing happens. Pasting works fine when I stay in Indesign, but not when I try to paste it in another application.
So I tried to export text to RTF (selecting text, export to rtf, give a name als save), but no file was created.
Pasting text from another app. into Indesign just works fine.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?
Thanks for any advise.
(Windows Vista, Dell 9200, 4 MB memory)
L.L.

I solve this problem in windows XP using the Phaedra's first optimistic tip and worked fine to me.
When I tested the IDcs3 in another profile it was clear that the problem is not in the program, but in permissions or another detail in the user config.
To simplifly my life, I create a new user account "MIGUEL2" in Windows as admin powers. With this new account I "reboot" my oldest ("MIGUEL") account to user mode. Restarted windows and, with "MIGUEL2" I reset the privileges to "MIGUEL" to admin user.
Now I can export txt and rtf files from IDcs3. ;)
You can skip the last step and work only with the new account or just work as user, not admin...
Really weird. Why this happened? I don't know... but I'm happy that was too simple to solve...
Best wishes

How do I make a DVD copy of a file? And does the file have to be converted from mpeg or mp4 or.MOV to a different format before it can be copied and is readable by DVD? Thanks.

Great hearing for you all! I thought I was all alone this past weekend. I did learn a lot this weekend. I really like the InDesign product.(half-the-battle) But to be helped by the prestigious “Sandee Cohen” was an honor indeed.” I ordered the InDesign CC today. Peter, I appreciate all the feedback on Lynda too. They are loaded with lots of good videos. Derek too honed in on one of the most important aspects! Since I have been working with Word for most of the first portion of the book this will be a big help. I looked at the comments big help ! Thanks a ton ALL! Have a wonder day or evening whenever you read this reply.

Copy and Paste Problem in Dreamweaver CS5.5

Hi All,
I saw the posts for Dreamweaver CS4 for copy and paste problems. I tried all the suggestions but to no avail. My copy and paste would not work. Then I found what worked for me...
I went to Edit --> Keyboard Shortcuts --> and I changed from "Dreamweaver Standard" to "Dreamweaver Mx2004". For the moment, it is working. I am on XP Professional.
From the other posts the suggestions were...
Switch to Classic Mode
Delete the Configuration file
Uncheck "Enable related files"
It was a problem for sure, and hopefully I won't be back for this one :-) Good luck

Hello,
The problem has been solved by over writing the � font.properties � file in jre/lib/� .
The changes given as follows:
# Exclusion Range info.
# exclusion.dialog.0=0500-20ab,20ad-ffff
# exclusion.dialoginput.0=0500-20ab,20ad-ffff
# exclusion.serif.0=0500-20ab,20ad-ffff
# exclusion.sansserif.0=0500-20ab,20ad-ffff
# exclusion.monospaced.0=0500-20ab,20ad-ffff
That is, we comment the lines having Red foreground color.

Copy Protect when I try and create a DVD

Help please. I created a movie using FCE 1.0. I then "printed to video" to capture the final movie on a Sony Hi8 Camcorder with Firewire. I then tried to create a DVD by connecting the camcorder to a Philips DVD Recorder using the standard RCA jacks. The recorder shows the message "Copy Protected" and will not record the movie. Is this a setting within FCE or the content?
Help!

Really not sure about this, but I doubt it's anything to do with FCE. Is it some copy protection built into the DVD recorder? I.e to stop you copying DVDs. Does the DVD Recorder normally work with this jacks? Is there any other way to connect to the recorder?
