DVD menu doesn't work on the finished DVD

Please, I need some help.
I am having problems with a DVD menu.
Several days ago I burned a DVD from the same project that I tried to export to DVD today, and I did not have any problems with DVD menu, but today, when I start to burn DVD it shows me a warning sign that tells a few DVD markers are closer than they are required, and after burning DVD the DVD menu doesn't show or work on the finished DVD. What am I doing wrong?

DVD menu doesn't work right in DVD players

I've created a DVD in Encore for Mac. It plays fine on my Mac and on Windows. However, once it is inserted into a stand alone DVD player, the menu doesn't work right. I have four text menus. In the DVD player, none of those are navigable. Arrowing up or down doesn't work. You have to click a number on the remote keypad and then play. This also causes "Channel 1" or "Channel 2" and so on to display. Any ideas how I can get the arrow keys to work? I don't have a stand alone dvd player to test against.
Also, in Windows, I have someone that wants to duplicate the dvd. They're using Movie Maker. It gives an error that the codec is not installed but doesn't say which codec. Any ideas on that?

The only time I recall similar problems was the issue Jeff was asking about above (Mac, Encore CS3, certain OS). If you don't solve this otherwise, I'd experiment with that.
You appear to have confirmed that there is button navigation. (In button routing, each button points to another.) Where does it break down?
On the Mac/PC, are you using the mouse? In the computer DVD software player, there should be a "remote" that you can use to see if the button navigation is working. Does the computer "remote" option work? If so, it makes it not working in a standalone player even odder.
If not, then look at whether the project works before you burn to disk. Does the "remote" work in the Encore preview? Or build to a folder, then play the DVD from the folder. (I don't know how on Mac; on PC, I find the first .ifo in the VIDEO_TS folder, and play that.)

Burned DVD - menu doesn't work

I'm fairly new to all this and have created a slideshow in iMovie and then created a DVD in iDVD. In iDVD it all works (there is just one menu item). But when I burn to disc image (or even burn a dvd) the menu link doesn't work - it just starts over the main screen. However, with the mac dvd player if I go to the menu, I can access it through "title".
HELP!
Many thanks!

Try closing iDVD and trashing the file called com.Apple.iDVD.plist located in User/Library/Preferences. iDVD will create a new file upon relaunch. Then repair permissions using the Utilities/Disk Utility app on your Mac. After deleting coded assets, try burning again.
When you burn again, I would burn from a disk image rather then directly from your iDVD project. Open your iDVD project, Delete Coded Assets from the Advanced menu, and save your project as a Disk Image on your hard drive. The assets will re-encode, taking a little time. Play the disk image with your computer's DVD Player application and see if the menu button works on the disk image. If it does, your initial problem might be caused by bad media. Burn a new DVD disk from the disk image at 4x speed, using Verbatim or Maxell DVD-R disks. See if that works.
Hope this helps.

My Wifi doesn´t work. The Wifi icon on top menu bar states there is no hardware connected. How can I resolve this as previously Wifi connection worked perfectly. Is this something that to do with the computer hardware? Please advise.

My current situation: I have soooo many texts on my iphone and I haven't deleted many because I need the information contained in them for future reference and for legal purposes. I would really like to find a means and way to save them other than on the phone itself. I've done searches for various apps yet I'm not finding what I think I would need. It appears Apple does not sync the texts between the iphone and my MacBook Pro.
Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

The first DVD menu doesn't support "clicking" with the cursor

I just created a disc image of my iDVD project and I have found that when I run it using the DVD Player, I can't navigate the first DVD menu with the cursor. The only way I can move through it is by using the arrow keys and then pressing "return" or "enter."
When I preview my project in iDVD I don't have this problem. Any ideas as to what is going on here? Has this question been asked and addressed? I wasn't able to find any posts that outlined a similar problem...
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Aaron

What can I do if my CD or DVD drive doesn't work properly in Windows 8?

QuestionWhat can I do when if my laptop CD or DVD drive doesn't work properly in Windows 8?
AnswerNote: For help with this issue in Windows 7, please see this article.
To get your CD or DVD drive working correctly, try these suggestions in the order listed.
Reinstall the Driver
Hold the Windows key and press the 'x' key to open a menu in the lower-left. In this menu, select "Device Manager." Expand "DVD/CD-ROM drives." Right-click the entry for the CD/DVD drive nested under "DVD/CD-ROM drives," then select "Uninstall." Finally, restart the computer. The computer will reinstall the drivers for the drive.
Power Cycle
Even when your laptop is off and unplugged, residual power can still be held in some components. While this is normal, clearing it can help with some hardware problems. Perform these steps to complete what’s called a power cycle.
Ensure the laptop is turned off.
Unplug the laptop's AC power cable.
Unplug all wires and peripherals. This includes CDs, DVDs, USB sticks, mice, printers, and any other accessories.
Remove the battery (if the model has a removable battery). If the model does not have a removable battery, check your user's guide to determine if you have a pinhole reset on the bottom. If you do, press this.
Hold down the power button for thirty seconds.
Reattach the battery if removed.
Connect the AC adaptor to the power socket that was confirmed to be working in the first step.
Connect the other end of the AC adaptor to your computer.
Start the computer and test the drive
Microsoft Fix-it
Your computer may exhibit one or more of the following symptoms:
Your CD or DVD drive no longer appears in Windows
Your CD or DVD drive does not read or write and is shown as disabled
The media in your CD or DVD drive cannot be read
The media cannot be written to a CD or DVD inserted into the drive
You receive an error message about your CD or DVD drive
If any of these symptoms apply to your computer, use Microsoft Fix-it troubleshooter available here.
System Restore
Try using System Restore to restore to the most restore point from before the problem arose.
How To: Understanding System Restore, Refresh, Reset, and, Recovery options in Windows 8 + Video
System Recovery
If the System Restore doesn't solve the issue, you could try a System Reset. Resetting your laptop to its original, out-of-the-box state is a great way to eliminate software as a possible cause of the problem. Note that doing a system reset will return the laptop to its default conditions, completely wiping your data. Information on how to perform a system recovery can be found in your user's guide.
For more information on performing a recovery, see the following article:
How To: Understanding System Restore, Refresh, Reset, and, Recovery options in Windows 8 + Video
Contact Customer Support
If the drive doesn't work after performing a recovery, it may be due to hardware failure. Please call customer support or seek servicing.

See this Microsoft article - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060/en-us For ways to fix manually

Safari show all tabs doesn't work all the time

It is annoying: safari show all tabs doesn't work all the time. The little icon to the right of the "New Tab" area sometimes works, and sometimes doesn't. The Shift Command Back-slash, sometimes works, and sometimes doesn't. I find no rhyme nor reason for this. I have a MacBook Pro, Mountain Lion, the latest updates. It doesn't matter if I am in Full Screen or not.
I am quite confused regarding this.

Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type of copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, empty the cache more often from your keyboard.
Command + Option + E

I have a MacBook Pro bought in dec 2009. Currently has mountain lion osx installed. Worked like a dream until today. Randomly froze, so I restarted it. To find I got a grey screen. It wouldn't start. Also note my DVD drive doesn't work, but mountain lion was installed via App Store anyway.
So here's what I done so far:
tried resetting PRAM - No success
Done disk utility. Disk verified with no errors. I even re formatted disk. - no success starting.
Tried re installing mountain lion via download . It froze halfway installing -no success.
Tried backing up a time machine backup from my USB hard drive. It froze at 1% - no success
Tried booting from safe mode - no success
Tried the command line boot - no success.
Please someone help!

Sounds like the hard dre has left the building, Died, in the Sh*tter, Gone to the hard drive resting place in the sky.
Buy a new drive connect it to the system with a SATA to USB adapter and see if you can install Mt Lion on that drive connected externally. If you can then the drive inside your system has failed.
Oh Wait!!!! You have the 2009 model. They are known for bad drive to logic board cables. So it may not be the drive itself but the cable going from the drive to the logic board. Do the same as above then if the system runs OK with the new drive connected externally install it in the system and see if it boots. If it does you are good to go. If it doesn't then it is more then likely the cable that hs failed.
I would suggest you also SAVE a copy of that download of Mt Lion and create a USB install drive from it using Lion Disk Maker, once you get your system up and running.

Links on DVD menu aren't working.

Hi, I recorded a short Camtasia video showing how a chunk of the links on my DVD menu aren't working. I can't figure out what's going on. I cannot click on anything past "Marianna Ingraham", including "Main Menu". I burned a disc image and a hard copy DVD, neither of which worked. Can someone explain to me what's happening? Is there a link limit? Thanks.

Yes, the DVD spec is 36 buttons per menu for a 4:3 menu, and 18 for a 16:9.

Why some eMac DVD SuperDrive doesn't work?

Why some eMac DVD SuperDrive doesn't work?
They have a limited hours life, or some DVD or CD can damage them?
Thank you

Hopefully some day I will find the answer for this question.

Charger works when notebook is off, but it doesn't work when the notebook is on.

I have a HP Pavilion dv6-3070tx Entertainment Notebook PC.
My charger doesn't work when the notebook is on and plugged in, but when the notebook is off (or even when it is in sleep mode) it gets charged. I tested this by using different chargers that work in other hp notebooks. If this can be solved, I'll be grateful.

Hi
There are two structures of DVDs
• Data-DVD - as burned from DeskTop/Finder
• Video-DVD - to be played on a DVD-Player - Needs a program that can do this
One can in iMovie - Export as QuickTime .mov and save this via DeskTop/Finder onto a DVD - BUT this will only play on a Computer and if it is a Window-PC this needs to download QT-player or VLC-player.
But no DVD-player for TV can play back this.
To get a Video-DVD then You need
• iDVD (not from Apple any more) - or -
• DVD Studio Pro (not from Apple any more) - or -
• FinalCut Pro-X (can do simple Video-DVDs) - or -
• Burn - http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html - FREE - but very PLAIN - no fancy things at all.
• Roxio Toast™ 11 Pro - Fairly advanced - and costs a bit - still very Good and lot's of great tool's included. (I love it) - Can also back convert home made DVDs to an editable mode in an OK quality. With BD-component also capable to do sort of Blu-Ray DVDs.

Safari menu doesn't work

I have a strange Safari bug... After about a day of using Safari 2.0.4 (the latest stable version), the main Safari menu stops working. I can still pull it down, but selecting anything in it does nothing.
For example, I can pull down the Safari menu and select Quit, but the app doesn't quit. I can pull it down and select Preferences, but no preferences appear.
On the other hand, I can type Cmd-Q and Safari will quit. I can type Cmd-K to toggle pop-up blocking. But selecting any item in the menu doesn't work.
All the other menus work fine. Safari itself also works fine. The application menu in other apps work perfectly.
The problem crops up after about a day or so. If I quit Safari and re-launch, the menu will behave correctly for a while. Then, sometime later, it will stop working. Safari has been doing this for at least a year -- perhaps two.
I have tried trashing Safari's preferences. A Mac Genius suggested installing Safari 3 Beta, then un-installing to restore Safari 2, but that didn't help.
Any ideas?
PowerMac G5 Dual Mac OS X (10.4.10)

This might be worth a try:
Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
form values
download.plist
Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
com.apple.Safari.plist
Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
Safari has been doing this for at least a year -- perhaps two.
And you never to question it? I have never seen that behaviour.

This guide doesn't work in the new PC itunes! I called apple support for 25mins and they just emailed me this link again! I need to see my in-app purchase transaction/order numbers ASAP.

Which part isn't working ? If you have the current version of iTunes (iTunes 12) on your PC then the steps for logging into your account should work.
Or, and if you have an older version of iTunes, you can log into your account via the Store > View Account menu option :
On your account's screen there should be a Purchase History section with a 'See All' link to its right
