Dvd's not playing after installing Virtual PC 7

Dvd's are not readable in the Mac OS X, but they do play in the Virtual Pc. Not a single dvd, or music cd, only the OS X installation disc.

There are playback issues in general depending on how a disk is made, and there are issues related to Windows machines also (even on Hollywood DVDs) depending on version of Windows, drivers, etc.

Dvd player not working after Instaling OS X 10.8.4 Video freezes while audio keeps playing

After installing OS X 10.8.4 I tried to play a DVD and the video starts to freeze up while audio keeps playing. Video eventually stops completely while audio continues to play. Is anyone else having this issue? Does anyone know how to fix this issue??

Try booting into the Safe Mode to see if the same problem occurs. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application unistaller. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

Windows 8 will not boot - After install virtual box (virtualization)

I installed virtual box and now I am unable to start window 8.
I read online that there is a known issue with virtualization on windows 8. They suggested trying to toggle virtualization on/off in the bios which has not solved my problem. Does anyone know of anything else I can do to get my install back? I really do
not want to have to re-install windows. I have only had windows 8 installed for three weeks!

I tried upgrading from VirtualBox 4.3.12 to 4.3.20 and ended up with an unbootable machine (Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit). It would come up to the desktop but nothing would work - there were no icons on the desktop, the tray applications didn't seem to be loading,
the transparent task bar was shown as a block of solid colour. Pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL brought up the menu where I could choose Task Manager, but the Task Manager itself would not show up, just a dialog warning me that a process was not responding and asking
if I wanted to end the task (I forget the exact wording). Clicking "End task" that dialog removed the dialog only for it to appear again a minute later. It was not possible to do anything with the machine or to open the Task Manager.
I have updated through a number of versions of VirtualBox without issue. 4.3.20 seems to be a bad update. Unless some other recent update has changed something in Windows so that the VirtualBox update now conflicts.
I forced the system to turn off then used System Restore to reset it to an earlier time. System Restore told me it had failed with an error, but then when I rebooted the machine a dialog came up at the desktop saying that System Restore had succeeded. It
works again now but I am stuck with the older version of VirtualBox.

DVD Burner not responding after installing Mountain Lion - Macbook Pro

The superdrive can play a disc but when trying to burn a DVD with programs like DVD2Onex, Toast and DVD Studio Pro I get an error message stating, in so many words, that the drive is either busy or not responding.
It was perfectly fine until I installed Mountain Lion.
What in the world. I got some DVDs to burn. I need to burn VIDEO_TS files, not iso, imgs or anything like that. I need to know why I can no longer burn anything since installing this terrible OS.

great

Dual layer DVD will not play after iDVD burning

Hi All,
I am having some trouble making a useable DVD. I have a video that I recorded and imported into iMovie (2h33m long). I exported it to iDVD, which told me that I needed to use a dual layer DVD to make it fit. Here's where I noticed the first problem: iDVD has one option for a dual layer disc, stating that it has 7.7GB storage space, and my discs have 8.5GB. I set it to use the standard setting for the DL disc any ways, turned the quality down a bit to make it fit, and burned the DVD. After burning two discs, I still do not have one that works. It comes up as "supported disc not available" on my Mac, and as a blank disc on any other machine I put it in. It will run on my coworker's brand new iMac, but that is the only one. Am I doing something wrong? The only mistake that I have corrected since I have tried all this is changing the aspect ratio back from 4:3 to 16:9 in iMovie (I am not sure how that happened, as the video was originally recorded in 16:9). I am re-exporting the file to my desktop now in the proper ratio, and changed the quality to HD. I am waiting for the file to encode as we speak. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this work is for my local school board and is very time sensitive.
I am running a 28" iMac, 2.66GHz Intel i5, 8GB RAM, 1TB hard drive on OSX 10.6.8.

I set it to use the standard setting for the DL disc any ways, turned the quality down a bit to make it fit, and burned the DVD.
That part I don't understand.
iDVD encoding settings:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1502?viewlocale=en_US
Short version:
Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
That was for single-layer DVDs. Double these numbers for dual-layer DVDs.
Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced two-pass technology to encode your video (The first pass determines which parts of the movie can be given greater compresson without quality loss and which parts can’t. The second pass then encodes those different parts accordingly) , resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned about the time taken.
In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

I HAVE FOUND A FIX! Searching through the support blogs paid off in a big way. A minor registry edit is all it took and my drive is working like new! Here's the fix. My system is Windows 10 64-bit.  Resolution 5: Create a registry subkey
Note To use this method, you must be logged on to Windows as an administrator. If you need help verifying that you are an administrator, go tohttp://support.microsoft.com/gp/admin
Important Follow the steps in this section carefully. Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Before you modify it, back up the registry for restoration in case problems occur.
To create the registry subkey, follow these steps:
    Press the Windows logo key + R to open the Run box. (or right-click on windows icon in lower left corner)
    Type regedit in the Run box, then press Enter. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Allow
    In the navigation pane, locate the following registry subkey:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\atapi
    Right-click atapi, point to New, then click Key.
    Type Controller0, and then press Enter.
    Right-click Controller0, point to New, and then click DWORD(32-bit) Value .
    Type EnumDevice1, and then press Enter.
    Right-click EnumDevice1, click Modify....
    Type 1 in the Value data box, and then click OK.
    Exit Registry Editor.

My sound system does not work AFTER installing pc to tv wireless connection

Hi,
You don’t install VS2010 on the client PC, then where did the Form Invoice not work? When you run it from another version of VS? Or when you run the application with application.exe?
Based on your description, one form works well, another form does not. I assume that two forms are in two different projects, then please check the .Net Framework used by the two projects. If they are different, you can use the
one used by the Form contact for Form Invoice.
Because this issue is a project issue, I recommend you to consult it on some application forum such as Windows Forms General forum for better support.
VS General Question forum mainly discusses
the usage of Visual Studio IDE such as
WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help
System and Visual Studio Editor.

Some mp3 files do not play after upgrading to iTunes 8.0

some mp3 files do not play after upgrading to iTunes 8.0
have upgraded and some songs which used to play on iTunes 7 no longer play. album art is missing. when trying to play on of these songs, nothing appears in the playbar at the top of the window.
it seems the same problem exists in the mac os environment.

The solution I discovered to fix this problem was to create a smart playlist with all song of a kind containing MPEG. Then I went through album by album, and coverted ID3 tags using the value of NONE. This then enabled me to play the songs in iTunes 8.0 and in many cases restored the Album Art.
Thanks!

ValentinT, welcome to the forum.
There are no drivers available for Windows 8. I suggest checking in the Control Panel/Sound/Recording to assure that your microphone is selected. It seems that the Sound is one area that gets changed when updating to Win 8.1. At least, this is what happened to me.

Photoshop CS4 will not launch after installing Yosemite.

Photoshop CS4 will not launch after installing Yosemite. All the other CS4 apps open. I upgraded Java. Genius Bar could not get it to launch.

Here's the fix I found, by way of an explanation...
Snow Leopard prompted me on my first startup with the following error:
"There is a conflict with the _______ font file. This font file contains a font name that conflicts with a system font required by Mac OS X to display onscreen text. You should move this font file to the Trash."
The fonts it said were conflicting: Helvetica, HelveticaNeue.dfont, Lucida Grande, and Monaco. I figured Snow Leopard probably wanted to replace these fonts with newer versions, and so I clicked "Move to Trash" on all four.
Apparently 10.6 trashed these fonts but didn't replace them. This was causing Photoshop to crash on load.
So I restored my ~/Library/Fonts folder from a backup made just before upgrading and this time after a reboot I said "Allow Conflict" on all four dialog boxes and launched Photoshop... everything is back to normal!
Not sure what kind of "conflict" it's referring to, but apparently moving these font files to the trash as OS X prompted me to do broke a number of apps. Should I report this as a bug?
Thanks for the ideas!

HELP!!! iTunes not playing after lastest upgrade

My iTunes is not playing after lastest upgrade, and i onli hear a lo buzzing sound wiht i hit the play button, and the diamond thingy is still moving. I tried reinstalling and re importing the music files, but i juz wouldn't work. help

Nope i did not have any success with the other possibilities, other then the one concerning the hardware.
hmmm. okay, if you switched sound enhancer off, that probably would have covered that possibility anyway.
we'd better check your video drivers as well as your sound card drivers. (old video drivers can cause problems with Quicktime that can show up as itunes audio problems, since QT provides audio playback for itunes.)

What can I do, if a DVD will not play?

What can I do, if a DVD will not play?

You don't want to change the player Region Code. If I remember correctly you can only change the Region Code three times and it sticks to the last Region Code you selected.
Does the DVD play in another player?
