DVD Download USB Superdrive

Can you download DVD's on to a macbook air with Apple's USB Superdrive?

Yes, you just need to use the appropriate ripping software, such as Handbrake.

  • HT5630 how do I burn a dvd using usb superdrive to mac or itunes?

    How do I burn my dvds onto either my Macbook air or onto itunes using external USB superdrive please??

    "Burn my DVD" refers to the process of taking data FROM the Macbook and copying them TO the DVD, not potentially the other way around, as you have asked the question.
    Are you wanting to copy (rip) movies from a DVD and place them into iTunes?
                        -or-
    Are you wanting to copy (burn) a movie from a digital copy on your computer to the DVD?
    The way you have asked the question makes no sense.

  • Le Apple USB SuperDrive est-il compatible avec l'iMac mi-2011 ?

    Bonsoir,
    J'ai habimé le SuperDrive d'origine de mon iMac 21,5p mi-2011 qui tourne actuellement sur OS 10.9 Mavericks.
    Je souhaitez donc le remplacer par un SuperDrive externe, qui en plus me permettrait de lire CD et DVD sur mon MacBook Air.
    Celui-ci est-il compatible ?
    J'ai vu sur l'Apple Store qu'il était compatible seulement avec l'iMac 2012, je pense qu'il est écrit ceci car ce dernier ne possède pas de SuperDrive intégré, mais je préfère être sûr de la compatibilité avant d'invistire dans un SuperDrive.
    Merc beaucoup !

    The Apple USB SuperDrive only works with Macs without SuperDrive (MacBook Air, Mac mini, Late 2012 and newer iMacs, and the MacBook Pro with Retina display). There are tricks to use it with other computers, but I don't recommend it.
    You can use any external DVD drive with the Mac, so it's better to get a cheaper external DVD drive than the USB SuperDrive. Also, people have reported issues.
    Le SuperDrive USB d'Apple ne fonctionne qu'avec Mac sans SuperDrive (MacBook Air, Mac mini, iMac Late 2012 et plus récents, et le MacBook Pro avec écran Retina). Il ya des trucs à utiliser avec d'autres ordinateurs, mais je ne le recommande pas.
    Vous pouvez utiliser n'importe quel lecteur DVD externe avec le Mac, il est donc préférable d'obtenir un produit moins cher que le DVD externe USB SuperDrive. Aussi, les gens ont signalé des problèmes

  • How do you remove the dvd from the usb superdrive?

    How do yu remove a dvd from the usb superdrive that is connected to my Mac Pro?

    Thank you so much for this info. I've been trying for hours to eject a CD from my USB superdrive and all it would do would tell me this "cannot be supported". I tried everything listed on the Apple support site and was about to make a trip to the service center. I downloaded the Terminal app and typed in what you said and it immedialty ejected my CD. Thanks again.

  • I have a dvd of a concert that I would like to copy to my mac and play without using my usb superdrive every time.  Is this possible?

    I have a DVD of a concert that plays when connected via USB superdrive.  Can I copy this to my hard drive/desktop so that I can play it at times when I don't have the superdrive?  If so, how do i do it?

    is the DVD copyrighted?
    if not you can convert it MP4 etc with an application like MDRP
    otherwise is answer is no answer.

  • Burn to DVD from MacBook Air to USB Superdrive

    Hi. I am not totally computer illiterate but i really need some help. I have two long videos of a show that Im in in Londons West End. Several of the lads have asked for a copy and I didnt think that would be a problem. Ha!
    The clips are one of an hour and the second of 40 minutes. I use a MacBook Air and I purchased a USB superdrive to do the job. Followed the instructions to the letter, but the clips wouldnt burn as in total thay came to just under 10GB! Im struggling to understand how to get round this. For instance, if I buy a movie on DVD, i can get a whole movie of more than the length Im trying to do on one disc.
    Is there something I either can do or need to do?

    You need to burn a video DVD using iDVD:
    Why is there no iDVD on my new Mac? How do I get it and how do I install it?
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3673
    To burn a DVD with iDVD from the latest version of iMovie, you have to export the movie using the Export button and select 480p as the size. Open iDVD and start a new project, then drag that exported movie file into the iDVD menu window, avoiding any drop zones you see.

  • I would like to put all my iPhone videos to my macbook air than put it on a dvd to watch on any dvd player how would i do that using my usb superdrive and what type of dvd would i need

    I have just transferred all my iphone videos into my macbook, now I would like to put these videos onto a dvd for playing on any dvd; how would I do that with my usb Superdrive dvd/cd drive. I don't see a option to burn. Please help and responses is greatly appreciated, I am a New macbook user.

    You need an app like Toast by Roxio (http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/toast/default.html).  You would use Toast to burn the videos to a DVD-R disc.

  • HT5630 i cant start a download from a disk because usb superdrive isnt showing  up ion finder on my retina mbp

    i cant download from a disk on my usb superdrive beacause it doesnt show up in finder so i cant acess the files on it.

    make sure you have the superdrive right side up, the rubber feet should be facing downward. also make sure the disc you are trying to play is a compatible format.
    also open your finder preferences and make sure you have checked to show items on the desktop and within the finder window.

  • Why won't my USB Superdrive take my dvd?

    I have tried to put a disc into my USB Superdrive, but all it does is make a weird noise and spit it out. The disc contains files, and if I try it with a dvd it does not happen. It is not urgent. But I would like to know why it happens.
    THANK YOU!!!

    The your supredrive has failed. If it is still covered by a warranty take it to an Apple store to be diagnosed and replaced or if you have no warranty on it just buy any brand external DVD drive that connects by USB port. That is any brand. It does not have to have the Apple name on it for it to work on your Mac.

  • After you plug an Apple USB SuperDrive into an iMac, what must you do to view and burn DVD videos?

    After you plug an Apple USB SuperDrive into an iMac, what must you do to view or to burn DVD videos?

    iMac (late 2012)
    Mac mini (late 2009) and later

  • Can I use a USB superdrive DVD reader/writer with a mac pro?

    The internal CD/DVD read/writer in my macpro (2 x 2.66 ghz dual-core xeon) broke, so I purchased an external USB superdrive, thinking I could use it as an external drive. It does nothing when plugged into the mac pro, I cant even insert a disk. It seems to not even have power.    
    Anyway I now see the device (superdrive) is intended for a macbook air or mac mini.
    Am I toast? Is there no way I can get this thing to work with the mac pro?
    I dont think I can return it, I've already discarded all the packaging.
    Thanks for any advice.

    I agree it would not take a lot of time, 2 minutes perhaps for the world record holder, for me more like 10 perhaps, not including the time involved in purchasing the drive, figuring out how to recycle the old broken one that comes out, etc.
    However the key point is that if I can get this drive to work, the cost will be $0, as I've already paid for it. So I would be most interested in doing that, if possible. If it's not possible, then I'll have no choice to pay $30 or however much, for a new one.
