Does Apple support Blu Ray for video storage?

I have heard conflicting reports whether Blue Ray discs can be used for date storage of video. If so, how are Blue Ray discs formatted on iMacs?

We're talking apples and cigarettes here. I'm relying on information from the sales clerk.
He says I can use the Blu-ray discs as backup for data. I buy. Go home. Make burn-folder. Insert disc.... Reject. Disk-pop out. Go on forum. Realize I bin had...take back to Retail chain. Give refund.
But question I still asks is: smaller video companies need easy way to store HD quality video as data. Cheaply. And Blu-ray discs have that capability.

  • Does Yosemite support Blu-Ray disc and 4K playback on the iMac with a 4K player?

    If I plug a Blu-Ray or 4K player into an iMac, will Yosemite support playback?  What additional software is needed and available?

    It's hard to say considering Apple hasn't supported Blu-ray yet and the downloaded Blu-ray resources are really not what we exactly want. The most directly way is to install Mac Blu-ray player and Blu-ray drive. Macgo is the best now to support 4K Blu-ray and Yosemite.

  • TS3972 does apple support video tron network?

    Does apple support video tron network? What are the networks that we support that is not in the united states like AWF network.

    Not sure where you are located, but what ever apps you see on the main menu. Apart from that you can use airplay (if the developer has enabled) or mirroring via a compatible IOS device/computer.

    I appreciate your repsonse, but the irony is that Apple is still scheduling "One-to-One" & Joint Venture training on iWeb knowing that it all will end next June. ..
    Just to add this : iWeb -- the app itself -- is still supported,updated only months ago and as part of the ilife '11 DVDs still widely spread even though it is not sold on the AppStore it is official part of iLife. It runs in Lion and there is zero issues with the app. So a training makes sense, doesn't it ?.
    They would only to exclude the "publish to me.com" part to be up to date for courses and trainings :-≠

  • I use Pro Logic 9 and see that to upgrade to Pro Logic X I need to buy the full package again. Does apple offer special conditions for their Apple clients ? Are users of apple care protection plan better served ?

    I use Pro Logic 9.1.8.  and see that to upgrade to Pro Logic X I need to buy the full package again. Does apple offer special conditions for their Apple clients ? Are users of apple care protection plan better served ?

    Old saying applies here most of the time......
    "If it ain't broken, don't fix it"
    I choose to use LP9 with Snow Leopard myself (10.6.8 and 9.1.6) for most of my commercial work simply because I find that combo very stable and provides the best overall performance for my setups here... but I am also using LPX with Mavericks as part of my client support and that works fine too although with a drop in performance due to the heavier demands made on the hardware by the newer OS X and LPX graphic routines for example..

  • What is my Mac and does it have blu-ray?

    I would like to know if my iMac supports blu-ray? It came out before the 2011 model and would also like to know what it is called?

    Steve Jobs said Blu-ray was "a bag of hurt" and he hasn't said anything else in regards to Blu-ray..Apple doesn't want to put a BD because they want to sell you movies from iTunes...

  • Does apple make a printer for iPad if not how dow I get it to work with a HP Officejet 6500A Plus printer?

    Does Apple make a printer for the iPad and if not how do I get it to work with a HP Officejet 6500A Plus printer? Thanks

    Apple don't make any printers, but there are a number of the printers that are AirPrint-enabled, which you should be able to print to just by the printer and the iPad being on the same wifi network - the models that support AirPrint are listed on this page (the page also includes a bit of troubleshooting at the bottom of it) and it includes :
    HP Officejet 6500A e-All-In-One E710a
    HP Officejet 6500A Plus e-All-In-One E710n
    If your's isn't one of those then you could see if HPs own ePrint app works with it, or there are third-party printer apps such as PrintCentral Pro and Print n Share which might work it

    I am aware that iMacs donot support Blu-ray. However, could I use a blu-ray player connected via the audio/optical digital in port to watch blu-ray on my iMac screen ?

    You could connect a FireWire Blu-Ray drive and use non-Apple player software.

    Nothing.  The 2nd Gen Touch is OBSOLETE and is WAY past its support life.  If you want to run the newer apps you have to buy a newer iPod.

    Hi,

    Despite it pointing out Netgear Routers only, you will see from this Thread that the Issue was being discussed here much earlier than that

    An Aside
    I have been running my website since 2004 and iChat 2
    This section originally dated 2005 as well also has the info
    http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/page4.html#_mactodo (Item 4)
    It is not so much about what Apple do right away or answer in the Discussions it is about what they do to get the info to a wide an audience as possible.
    The upshot is that they do Monitor the Discussion in various forms.
    Some info finds it's way in to Articles like the first link.
    Other things get tested for future releases of the OS that Developers and others can try out.
    The issue with that is that whoever is doing the testing concentrates on the bits they want to work and know how it works before any changes.
    There are of course other examples dotted about.

  • What is the best way to set up an external drive for video storage

    What is the best way to set up an external drive for video storage?

    Check the formatting. It need to be formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled). This is also known as HFS+.
    FAT32 and NTFS formatting will not work with iMovie.
    If necessary, you can reformat using Disk Utility.
    Make one large partition. No need for multiple partitions.
    Do moves or copies to the external drive through iMovie as detailed in iMovie Help. If you move Events in the Finder, they may become unlinked from the projects that use them.

    Apple has a problem and the cant solve it. I had some very important call but this new iphone just shut down on me and wont turn on i tried everything u can find in apple support nothing works for me. Anyone know what i can do?

    I would instead say you have a problem since nearly all IPs work as advertised.  IF you do have a bad phone, take it into an Apple store and get a replacement.  Hope you didn't jailbreak your phone though as Apple probably will tell you, you broke it, you fix it.
