    Hold down the mouse button or trackpad clicker as you start up.
    If no joy, restart and hold the Option key. This brings up the Startup Manager, which will draw an Icon for each bootable Volume. When all are drawn, the Eject key is "live".

  • How do I get the dvd blank tape out of the computer

    I have successfully copied onto a dvd from my camera using Idvd08 One step. I did about four dvd's ok. Then, when I opened the idvd and chose "one step" and put in the blank dvd, it would keep showing on the screen the directions , when I chose "ok" it then went back to the opening icon where I would choose "one step". repeatedly. and the blank dvd is stuck in the computer. I tried holding down F!2 but that didn't work to eject the dvd. I have about 10 more movies to put onto a dvd from my camera. They are short about 10 minutes. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    I did get the dvd out of the computer. I finally found a direction that worked. I still cannot get the idvd to record from the camera using 'one step'. thanks for any suggestions.

    Yes mam.
    But from own personal problems. I hated getting links. Because the problems were more "in-definition", where listed problems were there. I've seen that most of these people had more specific problems, and even though a great amount of people have answered them, like you and gff, and sometimes me, they always come back.
    Yesterday, I spent the ENTIRE DAY *12 hours* trying to get my dvd to my ipod. If your persistant, and have patience, you'll figure it out. Mabey if people start trying instead of an eas way out, it feels much better to say, " I finally figured this problem out..I now have the knowledge that 100's of people desire, I should help them." But then I get threats when I do help them saying I shot my self in the foot.. and blah blah blah. So then I can't help.. So I tried to get people to do there own research.
    Sorry..

  • I can't  get the dvd out of the machine

    i was checking out the native instruments absynth 3 tutorial dvd. after quit the dvd i can not manage to eject it , i get a message saying that dvd is still in use and i have to quit the applications and try again. but there are no applications open, i even tried to force quit the finder , then shut the machine off. and turned it on again , no avail. i can't get the dvd out. any ideas?

    Restart the machine with the Option, Command, O, and F keys held down, and type the following commands into the prompt:
    eject cd
    mac-boot
    The DVD should be ejected once the first command has been issued. There are some other options available on this page.

  • I can't get the DVD out of my mac

    I'm trying to get the DVD out of the machine . I tried to restart the machine and hold down the mouse, but that still does not work. Does anyone know how to solve this?
    Thank you

    Force eject a stuck cd/dvd
    First try the normal methods to remove the disc. Drag its icon to the Trash can in the Dock or select 'Eject' from the File menu.
    If you are running a virtual machine, e.g. VMFusion, ensure that the CD is disconnected from the virtual machine. This will sometimes allow the CD to now show up in Mac OS X.
    Shut down the computer and start up whilst holding down the mouse button. This may take some time, but keep your finger on the mouse button right up until the disc comes out or the log-in screen has appeared.
    If you have Toast Titanium installed on your computer, choose EJECT DISC from the menubar.
    Sometimes you can successfully use the eject disc button in iTunes even if the disc is not visible to the Finder
    Open Disc utility and choose the disc you wish to eject in the left-hand pane, then click on the Eject button.
    Some Macintoshes have a paperclip hole that you can insert a straightened paperclip into, manually triggering the eject mechanism.
    Open Terminal and type "drutil tray eject" to eject the disc/tray, and "drutil tray close" to close the tray.
    If your computer has an eject button on the keyboard, restart the computer holding down the Option key. When the startup disk selection screen appears, let go of the option key and press the keyboard's eject button.

  • Getting Ripped DVD Video and Audio Into Encore

    Do you have previously authored DVDs that need rework?  Do you want to add menus with greater impact and functionality?  Do you want to add some additional program or supplemental material?  Does a client want their product demo DVD to be updated to reflect the capabilities of the new and improved version, but the source files no longer exist?  Using Adobe Encore DVD and a freeware utility called DVD Decrypter (DVDD), you can accomplish this quickly and easily.
    Disclaimer: I do not support the illegal copying and/or distribution of copyrighted works.  The authors and distributors of the software I use have made it clear that they do not support illegal copying.  This guide is intended solely to assist you in ripping and copying DVD video to which you have the legal rights.  Any use of this guide to infringe the copyright of someone else’s intellectual property is prohibited.
    This guide is based on Adobe Encore DVD 1.5.1 and DVD Decrypter version 3.5.4.0.  Let’s Begin!
    Place the DVD to be ripped in your DVD drive and launch DVDD.  If you have more than one drive (e.g., a DVD-ROM and a DVD burner) make sure the one with the disc is selected in the Source dropdown list in the main program window.  Now we need to set up DVDD to extract video in a way that is “Encore friendly”.  This is the toughest part of the whole exercise.  Click on the Tools menu item and choose “Settings…”. 
    Settings
    General Tab: You can leave these set at their defaults if you like.  Personally, I specify a custom Default Destination.  I put my ripped video assets all in one place anyway, and having a default destination means I have one less thing to do when I rip a DVD.
    IFO Mode Tab: Make sure that “Select Main Movie PGC” and “Enable Stream Processing” are checked.  “Uncheck Suspect Cells” is probably a good default safety check.  If your hard disks are formatted as NTFS, set File Splitting to “None”.  I leave “Copy IFO File” checked with the default sub-items checked.  Make sure that “Patch M2V Timecode” is unchecked.  The items in the Create Additional Files section are purely optional.  The author of DVDD has been kind enough to list which programs need which files; notice that Encore DVD isn’t listed as needing any of these extra files.  I do keep the “Stream Information” box checked.  DVDD generates very informative file names, but I like to keep “Include PGC Number” under File Names checked.  Be advised you will get some lengthy file names after DVDD is finished ripping.
    Stream Processing Tab: Since we enabled stream processing in the IFO Mode tab, we need to tell DVDD how to process those streams.  To save yourself time and confusion later, check the “Convert PCM to WAV” box.  Earlier versions of Encore required a Demuxed audio stream and a Raw video stream.  Encore 1.5.1 can accept either type of video stream (Raw or Demuxed) but it does still require a Demuxed audio stream.  However, I still recommend using Raw video and Demuxed audio, if only because it seems to be somewhat faster to process in DVDD.  This workflow is also backward-compatible with earlier versions of Encore.
    So let’s set up the Stream Processing tab now.  In the Demux box, enter “0x8? 0xA? 0xC?”.  This ensures that all audio streams in the selected PGC, whether AC3, PCM or MPEG will be set to Demux.  In the Raw box, enter “0xE0”.  This ensures that the video from the selected PGC will be set to Raw.  
    Additional Notes about the Stream Processing Tab:
    1. For those of you asking the question, “What the heck is a PGC?” it’s just DVD-speak for the titles in a DVD project.  And I’m not talking about the opening or end credits, either; I’m talking about the titles that result, for example, from the timelines you create in an Encore DVD project.  There is a subtle difference between a PGC and a VTS (title set), but that's not important right now.
    2. Happily, recent versions of DVDD create a WAV file after ripping that will import directly into Encore.  Versions prior to 3.2.0.0 would create a WAV file that had to be imported to, and exported from, a sound editing program like Adobe Audition, Goldwave or SoundForge before Encore would recognize it.
    Events Tab: For convenience sake, I recommend setting “Set Program Mode” in the Startup section to “IFO”.  That way, whenever you launch DVDD, it will look familiar to you.  You may safely ignore all of the other tabs in the Settings dialog. 
    Ripping
    1.Under the Input Tab of the main program window, select the PGC you want to rip.  You can only do one at a time.
    2.Switch to the Stream Processing Tab.  Verify that Enable Stream Processing is checked.
    3.Check or uncheck any or all of the video and audio streams that are listed.  Highlight each one to verify that all audio streams are set to Demux and the video stream is set to Raw.
    4.If you didn’t select Default Destination in the General Settings Tab, then you need to tell DVDD where to put the ripped files now.
    5.Click on the big DVD-to-Disk icon.
    6.DVDD will announce, quite loudly, when it has finished.  At that point you can rename the files or import them as is into Encore.
    I hope you find this guide useful and that it helps you get the most out of your investment in Adobe Encore DVD.

    OK, I can't tell you what we are doing, you'll have to trust me that it's for a very good cause. I'll simplify the use case as an example. If I can do the following we'll be OK:
    1) Read video/audo files from a DVD that we created
    2) Open these files with the QuickTime Player, click on Export to Apple TV to create an output file.
    I'd rather not do an interim conversion of the video data (like use a 3rd party app to convert to mp4 first and then read into QT, but I'm considering a conversion to DV) because that could seriously hurt the apps effectiveness. I also can't use another app (MPEG Streamclip, HandBrake, VisualHub, etc.) to do the conversion.

  • DVD-Rs no longer load, DVD+Rs get error message

    Hi everyone, I'm having some trouble with my Superdrive. Long story short, ever since I tried to use a DVD+R in the drive it's stopped recognizing DVD-Rs (spits them out without even loading them into the finder) and it refuses to burn DVD+Rs (I get an error code, 0x8002006E).
    What I've tried up until now: Reparing permissions (several times, both in a normal session and from the Tiger DVD), running TechTool Deluxe (just got it, no idea what it can really do), and giving the computer some time to adjust its attitude.
    Is there any way to get at least one of these types of blank media to work in my drive? This is extremely frustrating.

    Make sure the DVDs are clean, not scratched and or smudged.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=50448 How to Handle and Clean CD and DVD Discs
    Try another brand.
    Since you indicate that you previously had no problems using DVD+Rs maybe your drive needs cleaning. Cleaning kits are available from any store that sells CD/DVDs.
    You can also check out your Mac OS Help Menu for DVD troubleshooting tips and/or solutions. Just type dvd in the search field.
    If none of the above works hopefully, you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare.
    If not, then the following links may be of some interest. You are not alone.............

  • DVD drive not recognized, then all out crash. HELP!

    I was watching a DVD, and then I got an email notification which caused the DVD player to freak out and freeze. I restarted the computer to find out that the DVD drive was no longer recognized. Restarted a couple more times...no luck. Now's I've got a DVD stuck in there. So I open up the computer to make sure all the wires are connected. I push the power button AND NOTHINGG! The little power light goes on for about 5 seconds, then turns off. All I hear is a small 'click'. I tried a couple methods to fix it, and only succeeded in getting the DVD drive to spin, but no power in the computer itself. And now it's back to light/'click'/nothing. Am I beyond help here? Do I need a new computer? I'm so stressed out!
    Oh and if it comes down to needing a new mac, what would everyone suggest I get besides a mini. I am thinking of a macbook pro, but the price is way high for my funds right now. I also like the imac, but my concern on that is whether or not you can upgrade it after the fact.

    I took my mac in to the store to find out the logic board crashed on me. Way too expensive to fix since it's about the same cost as the mini itself. I'm just going to buy a new macbook. (I realize I'm spending more than it would to get a new logicbaord, but I want a new laptop!)

  • LINK TO A PDF FILE WITH DVD ACCESS

    Hello to everybody!
    This is the first time I use this discussions area.
    I'm desperate! I used the manual and all kind of online helps but still can't figure out how to link a pdf file inside dvd studio pro3. I enabled the dvd access but it doesn't work! I guess maybe it's something I do when a write the path where the file is or maybe the way I organize my folder! Anyways the thing is that it doesn't work not even in the simulation mode.
    Please help me!! Thank you very much!

    Hi Daria,
    Have a look at:

    or
    http://www.lafcpug.org/tutorials/basic_dvdaccess.html
    It contains a pretty good tutorial and sample files on how to do this. It can be done and it also works on Windows if the PC enabler [email protected] is included as indicated in the tutorial.

  • DVD @ access questions?

    I am putting together a short promo DVD for a client and I have a catalogue of their products as an image on the DVD that you can access via the main menu. What I want to do is have it so the products are 'clickable' and will take the user [when online] to the clients web site. I did a search but I cant find out how to link this page to the DVD access settings in the inspector. Any help? Also, can you link a button to open up and email application so the user can email direct from watching this DVD? Questions questions questions....thanks in advance. Oh, Im on DVDSP2.

    DVD@ccess is actually quite limited and not entirely compatible with the range of DVD playback software/hardware available on a PC... you might be better off using eDVD from Sonic (which is PC software, making use of the Interactual Player, rather than @ccess).
    However, @ccess links are embedded in to a menu - so any button you have got needs to go to a menu that simply has the @ccess URL embedded and the menu needs to time out to return to where the button was. For launching a web site simply use the standard URL for the site, include the http:// info in that.
    Now, sending an email is not going to work all of the time, but you can try it out and see if it has the functionality you want. The URL to place into the menu for DVD@ccess is the HTML 'mailto' code. simply write:
    mailto:[email protected], replacing name, domain and .com with the revelant info. If you have got the @ccess links enabled on your Mac, try simulating the menu with this in it... you should see Mail launch (it takes a moment for it to appear, but should work). Whether or not this will work on a PC with Outlook I don't know...

  • How do i get my imovie dvd to play on my dvd player

    I have made a movie on my imovie, and it will play on my macmini and my laptop but when I put it in my dvd player it says disc error.  How do I get it to play on all dvd players?

    Send it to iDvd (or other DVD creation program, like Toast) to make a DVD viewable in your DVD player. Your iMovie that is stored on a DVD is, as you've found out, readable by computer, but doesn't have the DVD wrapper to play in a DVD player.
