Disc utility not burning since latest upgrade

The latest daylight OS 10.4.8 upgrade has somehow disabled my DVD drive to recognize a blank disc when trying to burn a .dmg from the disc utility. I've ran disk repair permission and restart, turned off OS 9 nothing seems to work. It seems that each time there's any type of firm ware or security upgrade I have to install a fix it plug-in...such as what happened to the previous upgrade and it's effect on iSight. Very frustrating.

If you have not done so already:
Go to the bottom of the Disk Utility window & click on the ? mark inside the purple circle.
A Help window will open up. In the search field type burning images or dvd.
Then click on the troubleshooting topic that pertains to your issue.

  • HT6058 my ipad screen will not rotate since latest update

    my ipad scrren will not rotate since latest update, i have done everything i can think of including wha tapple told me

    What have you tried, and what did Apple tell you ?
    Is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If there is, then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad above the volume switch, or via control centre : swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen and it's the right-most of the 5 icons in the middle of it (if the icon is white then it's 'on', tap it to turn it grey and 'off'). The function that isn't on the side switch is set via control centre instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    If there isn't a lock symbol then try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.Have yo tried:
    - Backing up and restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Do not apply the latest upgrade to LR 4.2 if you are using PS5

    Do not apply the latest upgrade to LR 4.2 if you are using PS5. The latest LR update used Raw 7.2 which is not available in CS5.
    Wish I had a was to go backward. LR 4.2 was working fine until the latest upgrade.
    Wish I had not done it. NOW I am back to all the problems I had when I first installed LR4.0.
    Plus I am swamped with work through the Dec. So no time to spend days on the phone with support.
    Afraid to upgrade to PS6 as I cannot  aford any additional issues. Have lost my faith in adobe.

    There is nothing wrong with LR, it always works one way with whatever is the contemporary Photoshop version., and another way with all other software. CS5 is not the contemporary version with these newer Lightroom versions, CS6 is.
    If you have the latest PS as well as the latest LR, then the "Edit in Photoshop" command gets ACR to process the file, using LR settings.
    If you have different software or older software, either that cannot happen, or else is not certain to happen 100% compatibly. So a different method is used, as JimHess says: getting LR to render the file properly, instead of getting ACR to have a go (and perhaps get some things wrong).
    If you get a dialog box warning about ACR compatibility, you need to select "Render using Lightroom" rather than "Open anyway".
    If you no longer get this dialog (you have checked "don't show again") you can make it show again using the LR PReferences / general tab / "Reset all warning dialogs" button. That lets you select the proper option.
    The only caveat here, is that with this "render using LR"  method, the converted file has already  been named and saved to disk before you see it in PS. This means that when you finish your edit, you must Save the results to the filename already assigned, not to another name. Then LR will be looking in the right place, to see your PS edits. This also means that even if you don't save changes at all from PS, LR will still show a new image version anyway (unlike with the other method via ACR).

  • Itunes will not allow music to sync since latest upgrade

    Trying to sync music to two different ipods and ipad. since downloading the latest itunes version, no music will sync to either device.  I have checked selected songs (different for each device) and it will recognize 1755 songs but on the capacity bar, no audio is showing and when syncing, no music is transferred. I have tried restoring each device, all have latest upgrades....don't understand why it won't sync properly.  any ideas out there?

    this is a bug that came with the latest update. haven't seen any way of getting round it i'm afraid: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html

  • Some Widget does not work after latest upgrade

    Today is July 23rd, 2011. By recent latest upgrade, mainly for supporting Lion, where I am still using Snow Leopard 10.6.8, some widget does not work, including Battery Meter, Digital Clock Alarm, Victoria Digital Clock, etc.
    By the way, my company use Chatter and I installed Chatter Desktop. Again, after recent upgrade, it no longer work anymore.
    Do you experience the same problem?
    For those who has upgraded to Lion, do you also find some widget does not work?

    I have read a couple of complaints like that, but not sure it's widespread.
    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 6 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    Trash old Log files.
    First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
    Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.
    If that does NOT help, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
    Then move these files to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
    Reboot & test.
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
    If that does NOT help then I suspect the optical drive or media itself, or possibly just needs a cleaning CD run on it.

  • "Recently Added" has not updated since I upgraded

    My "Recently Added" playlist hasn't updated since I upgraded Friday afternoon. I cannot find any user setting that allows you to change this or set up your own.
    I find the "Recently Added" section an easy way to play together the most recently downloaded podcasts. Now, nothing updates.

    i've had the exact same problem since i upgraded. Not just the Recently Added not working, but none of the new music I download will import or add to the library.

  • My screen is blinking since latest upgrade?

    What causes screen to blink or flash? This started after latest upgrade. How can it be fixed?

    OK, well that isn't very definitive. However you can try some basic resets like doing a PRAM reset and SMC resets. If you don't know how to do these then please click:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3603
    You may need to do each up to 2-3 times for them to work.

  • My screen on iPhone won't rotate since latest upgrade

    My screen on iPhone won't rotate since latest upgrade

    Look in the status bar to see if you have accidently turned on the orientation lock. It would be an icon near the battery icon that looks like a small lock with a circular arrow around it. It will also be in the Control Center, when you swipe upwards from the bottom of the phone screen. Top row of icons, the last one on the right. White is on, black is off.
    I've also asked the hosts to move your post to an iPhone forum, so you can get more assistance.

  • Disk Utility not burning DVDs properly

    I am using Disk Utility to burn a disk image to DVD, and it isn't working properly. It goes from 'opening session' to 'writing track' to closing session in a matter of 10 seconds, and then it freezes.
    I am burning this same .img file on my Mac Mini and my iMac, and everything is working the way it should. I have tried recopying the file and running the burn directly from the original file, and it still won't work on the MBP.
    Any suggestions?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take the action that isn't working. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
