Dvd@ccess on windows Vista?

I am running DVD studio Pro Version 4.2.1
I have created a disc with web links and pdf links. I can install dvd@ccess on windows running XP, 2000, or 98. The links all work fine. But apparently I am told that DVD@ccess does not install on Vista. Is there an updated DVD@ccess installer? Is there a work around? Is there an alternative way from the PC to create a DVD that has weblinks, other than EDVD4, which Roxio discontinued? Anyone have any answers???

The answer is not what you want to hear but avoid DVD-Video and links (pdf, web etc). Just have a Menu informing users to browse the disc, maybe have a flash/director app on there that they can run if you dont just want a folder full of files for them to browse.
Links are a nightmare and should be avoided. No DVD@access Vista installer,

Share dvd with windows vista

hi, I have the new mac mini and would like to share the dvd with a windows vista pc, after all the installation and the configuraztion of both apple and pc on a local network, I can see the windows pc but it doesn't share the dvd!
someone can help please!
thank you

I figured the Windoze (I like that...) machines could see the contents of the disk regardless of what the iMac sees.
Clarification -- Hmmm. I guess the main thing I need is just to see the DVD drive on windoze. I can't figure out why the drive won't show.

DVD@ccess gor Visto and seven

can you tell me if you known a software DVD@ccess update for Vista and Windows seven

There is no update. DVD@ccess is unreliable on Windows. You are best not using it.

ISight to run in MSN (Windows Vista Business via Parallels)

Hi guys !
I'm a MAC newbee and as I need to run some Windows applications I have installed Windows Vista Business via Parallels.
Everything works just fine - except for the iSight web-cam when running MSN. I have installed the AppleiSight drivers from the Leopard DVD into the Windows Vista and I did get it running once. But since then the iSight won't start if running MSN. The iSight works perfectly in PhotoBoot, iChat and so on, so there's no problem with the actual HW.
If I try ro re-install the drivers it seems they're already installed, still my MSN doesn't find any cam connected.
I read somewhere that I might need to make the iSight camera "available" to Windows, but I haven't been able to figure out where that might be - if that is really the case... ??!! So if anyone can point me in the right direction here it would be just awesome...
THANKS !!!

I am having trouble getting the isight to work with aMSN messenger. When the video comes up, I can see myself in the screen viewing box, but the person I am messaging cannot. I am aware that MSN is a microsoft program and therefore might not work with apple. aMSN says that my isight is firewalled or blocked by a router and that I need port forwarding. I was wondering if there is any way around this or if anyone knows the numbers involved for the port forwarding?
"If you are unable to view a webcam in aMSN after a contact has send you an invite, or after you have issued the command to receive/send webcam, and you are behind a router, you may need to follow these steps:
If you receive: IP-Restrict-NAT and you receive false in webcam wizard, that means your connection is firewalled. (does not send the IP)
If this is the case, you will need to open some ports for the webcam to use because they are currently blocked.
To do this, open your router web-based configuration (check router manual for details on this). Once you have the web-based configuration open, browse for a setting called "port forwarding" or "port range forwarding" or something similar to that. (This might be found under the advanced features for your router).
Now that you have the port forwarding page open, you will want to set the port forwarding range so that aMSN will be able to accept and send the webcam stream.
Here's an example of how you will set up your port forwarding:
Application: aMSN
Start: 6890
End: 6900
Protocol: Both(TCP & UDP)
IP: xxx.xxx.x.xxx
Enabled: X (Yes/True)
Note: xxx.xxx.x.xxx is the IP of your machine that you are trying to send / receive webcam
If you have a web server open on your port 80, you can try to disable it too, sometimes it helps."

Windows Vista Home + iTunes = no DVD drives

I am a long time iTunes user, and have been having an issue with iTunes for the last little while. When I install iTunes (I'm on Windows Vista 32 bit, by the way), after the required restart, my DVD drives' icons disappear (I have 2 of them). I can see the DVD drives in the Device Manager, and they say they cannot start. The only I think I've had these problems since about iTunes 7.0, but I don't burn CDs that often, so I've really not felt too bad about it, except that my wife would like to do so. I've done the registry change where you remove the upper and lower filters, which corrects the drive issue, but then presents the seemingly inevitable Registry issue dialog box, without the option to burn CDs. Here are the steps I've done thus far to try to get my computer and iTunes to play nicely:
1. Tried reenabling the UpperFilter for GearAspiWDM as described here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305422
2. Tried downloading new GEAR drivers from their website.
3. Tried uninstalling Quicktime, and then installing it separately.
4. Uninstalled my other music service software (SonicStage), and then reinstalling iTunes.
5. Completely uninstalled iTunes, and then reinstalled it (a couple of iTunes versions ago).
6. Tried uninstalling the non-functioning DVD drives in the device manager, and then scanning for hardware changes. When the UpperFilter was still present, this part failed. It passed after I removed the UpperFilter registry entry.
Please help!
Edit: Here's my most recent diagnostic info (with Drives, without UpperFilters).

Tried installing Windows Vista, cancelled install and now it won't boot from the OEM Vista DVD, all i get is BOOTMGR is missing error... Ctrl Alt Del to restart and when i turn the computer on i get a blank screen and pressing C is not working to boot....

Topic says it all...
My friend started a installation of Windows Vista, but pulled out after deleting all partitions...
So now i power it on, get a blank screen (seems a bit gray because of backlighting, should show the apple logo right?)...
Then after like 15-20sec it will throw out a:
BOOTMGR is missing
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart
I have a OEM Windows Vista DVD in the drive, and i know... Windows 7 is better... but i'm not that fond of stealing software from Microsoft and i have 10 licenses for Vista...
I have tried pressing C while booting up but it doesn't work...
Does anyone here have a magic soloution for me, and no i will not install MacOS on it !!!

Deleting Boot Camp partitions the conventional way will not work . You must use the Boot Camp Assistant to remove a Boot Camp partition. Here is a link to the guide.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Boot_Camp_Install-Setup_10.6.pdf
The way to restart is to hold down the option/alt key during startup* and then selecting the Mac OS. If you have a valid Boot Camp install of Windows it would show up during this type of start up.
* hold down immediately after pressing the power button and until the OS choice screen appears.
To summarize.
1 Use the above method to boot into Mac OS.
2 Download the instructions and read them.
3 Use Boot Camp Assistant to remove the partition.
4 Pick your friends more carefully.

Issue with GEAR Software CD/DVD Drivers + Windows Vista Beta 2 (build 5384)

I am using Windows Vista Beta 2 (Build 5384), and yes I know Vista is NOT officially supported by iTunes yet. However, iTunes installs and works ok for me, except that there is an issue with the GEAR Software drivers that it installs (used for cd burning and importing). The issue is that the driver (GEARAspiWDM.sys) is not compatible with Windows Vista. Normally this would not be an issue; I would just use a different program to create audio cd's. The issue is that the drive makes both my DVD-Rom and my DVD/CD-RW drive disappears (they are still listed in the device manager, but they have driver errors, code 39).
So I was wondering if anyone in Mac/Apple land knows of a way to disable/uninstall the GEAR drivers so I can still use iTunes?
And yes I did search the GEAR Software support page, but could not find an appropriate solution.
Thank you.
Chuck Stewart

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

Missing CD/DVD drive after installing iTunes w/ Windows Vista

I have a Toshiba Satellite A135-S4427 laptop. The problem I am having is when I install iTunes my CD/DVD drive disappears. The drive is listed in the device mananger but it is corrupt ( yellow triangle). I can restore the drive by going back to system restore before iTunes was installed.It was sugested by Toshiba that I wait for the Windows Vista/ iPod fix. It has been sometime and there has been no word of a fix. I just bought my laptop in march and my iPod last month and I can not use it unless I load all of music one time and do a systems restore and loose it. It has become very fustrating as all the hot fixes do not apply to Vista but XP. I really need some support from someone. Microsoft charges 95 bucks a hour ( I think) and Toshiba says it is a Apple/Windows problem.
Thanks-

ITunes Will Not Recognize My CD/DVD Drive In My Windows Vista PC.

All,
I was forced to migrate to a new PC for work. It is running Windows Vista Enterprise. Since receiving the PC, iTunes will not recognize my CD/DVD Drive. I receive the following error message:
"Warning, The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CD's and DVD's are missing....." etc.
I have completed the following troubleshooting steps with no success:
1. Deleted upper and lower filters in the registry per the Microsoft fix from their web site.
2. Completely uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes/Quicktime/Etc.
3. Uninstalled and reinstalled the CD/DVD Drive
4. Verified that other programs recognize and can burn to my CD/DVD drive. I have Windows Media Player and Roxio Creator Basic installed.
5. Verified that Windows Vista recognizes my CD/DVD drive.
6. Installed the GEAR driver recommended on the Apple Support page for this issue.
All of my music in is iTunes and I prefer to burn my CD's via iTunes. I have read that several people are having this issue.
Does anyone have a solution? There has to be a fix out there somewhere.
I can downgrade to XP but it will take an "Act Of Congress" for my corporate IT group to send me the XP downgrade CD.
Any solutions or recommendations are great appreciated.

I need appleisightinstaller.exe to install the isight driver for Windows Vista running in Parallel Desktop 6 for Mac, but I don't have a Leopard DVD. What came with my Macbook Air was a flash stick "MacBook Air Software Reinstall Drive" only.

All,
A very interesting NOTE to this thread. In order to try and get the "ignore permissions" box to show up in GET INFO (so I could execute Matt the Magician's solution to file sharing issues)-- I ran the terminal command for disabling ACLs on my internal HD / start up disk (as indicated in the linked thread to BDAqua's forum).
Although I understand that this was useless for disabling permissions on the start up disk (as everyone here pointed out) and allowing me to see the "ignore permissions" check box - somehow it did seem to fix my file sharing problem...and that was the root problem I wanted solved in the first place! After doing the terminal command and a quick reboot, I went in and tested file sharing on the chosen directory and I can create new files or work from existing files in the directory, with both users being able to modify / and save from both machines and each machine sees the revisions and can build from them. Bottom line - I'm stoked and want to thank everyone for their help.
The only other tweak I made was going over to my wife's machine and instead of using her log in / password, I just used my name and password to connect to my main machine that was sharing directories. Maybe that's what fixed the problem or the ACL disable but either way...I'm up and running the way I want to be.
Hope this thread helps anyone else who has these file sharing / permissions issues with Leopard. Especially for anyone wanting to do such a simple file sharing set up between 2 computers. I wish I understood exactly which tweak fixed the problem, but at least it works the way I want now.
So happy to be done w/this one!
Thx everyone. Any additional input on what solved it is welcome, so my curiosity is quelled...

Reading DVDs in Windows Vista

Hi,
I have installed Windows Vista on my Macbook, and I can't read DVDs while I am on WIndows. However, I can read CDs, so I'd like to know how to read DVDs on Windows.
Thanks for you help!

Benji121:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
In response to your post above, I have a few questions for you so that I am clear on what I am addressing.
1. Which version of Windows Vista have you installed?
2. When you state that Vista cannot read DVDs, does that mean it cannot read the DVDs file content at all OR does it mean that you cannot PLAY DVD movies etc?
_If you have installed Windows Vista Basic and/or your answer to my Question #2 above is that your DVD player *CANNOT PLAY* Movies *but CAN* read the file directory then and only then do the following:_
1. Download Vista Codecs from *[_THIS SITE_|http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Video/Codec-Packs-Video-Codecs/Ad vanced-Vista-Codec-Package.shtml]*
2. Run the downloaded file and install the codecs
You see if your Vista is the Basic version then it does not come with the Video Codecs that are necessary to play media content. The above download and installation should solve that issue.
Please note that If you have a different version of Vista then you may have a completely different issue.

Dvd@ccess not working with windows (windows media pleyer)

i have build my dvd using the dvd@ccess works fine only on mac
not working on window even after installing the dvd@ccess
is there a way for it to work?

Years ago when DVDs first hit the market, everyone was trying to put weblinks on their DVD. The problem was that no one had a seemless system that worked on all computers (there are alternatives to dvd@ccess). No matter what anyone did there were ALWAYS customers who complained, "It doesn't work." So as a result it is now almost impossible to find any new DVD releases that use weblinks.
The best advice is to not have any weblinks on your DVD. No matter what you do, there will always be someone out there who will complain, "It doesn't work."

I have a hp pavilion elite e9140f windows vista 64-bit

any suggestions to get past this point?
Help and Thanks

Hello BRDGDD,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand you are having issues using your Blu-Ray Player on your HP Pavilion Elite e9140f running Windows Vista. I am going to approach this from a couple different directions.
First, we are going to try to put back the original drivers that came with your computer using the HP Support document: Performing a Software Application or Driver Recovery (Windows Vista), which will walk you though using the HP Recovery Manager to restore the original drivers on your computer.
Second, if you are still not able to use the Blu-Ray Player we are going to try using the HP Support document: Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows Vista), which we will use to roll your system back to a point in time where your Blu-Ray player worked. This will not affect your personal files, but it will affect any applications you have installed between now and the date you choose and any settings you have changed during the same time. These will have to be re-installed and/or re-changed.
Lastly, if you are still not able to install the software or are still not able to use your Blu-Ray Player I am going to suggest you back up any personal files, bookmarks and such to a USB drive or something and then follow the HP Support document: Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows Vista), which will walk you through recoverying your computer back to factory settings.
***NOTE: Be warned you will loose everything so ensure you backup what you want to keep!
If none of the above work and your still having issues it appears to be a physical issue and I think it would be best if you contacted HP technical support for repair options.
US support link to contact options for HP products purchased in the US.
Outside of US support link to contact options for HP products purchased outside the US.
I would like to thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!
