DVD will not complete using FCP share

I am trying to burn a DVD in FCPx. The audio and video files are created but the DVD will not finalize. The progerss bar sits at 95%. What should I do. I have been able to create DVD's in this way in the past.

Can you try another project to see whether it is a project-specific problem? (You can choose HD as output device so you don't waste media.)
How long is your movie and what is its format?

  • Re-Install of 10.4.6 from original DVD will not complete on MacBook Pro

    I purchased a new MacBook Pro 15" laptop around Oct 1, 2006 and I am now unable to use it.
    It came with 10.4.6 installed. I updated the system to 10.4.7 and 10.4.8 using update packages directly from the Apple site. Then I ran a Security Update to 10.4.8 and nothing has worked right since.
    I tried using Disk Utility in every way and was always able to repair with no errors found. I tried to troubleshoot various applications to see if they were the issue with no improvement. The ultimate problem was the entire system would freeze and would have to be rebooted. Sometimes the system would boot up, sometimes the apple and gear would run and then a circle with a line through it would replace the apple symbol. Sometimes I would get the dreaded blinking folder with question mark. Most of the time rebooting could eventually get you to the desktop, but the system never worked for longer than 15 to 30 minutes.
    So, I decided to reinstall 10.4.6 from the install DVD that came with my computer. I cannot get 10.4.6 re-installed. I have used disk utility to erase, repair, partition and so on and after a few tries it repairs succesfully.
    I ran the Hardware test and it says no trouble found.
    The install log ends with the following three errors:
    1. unable to copy package source file OSInstall.dist to destination reciept ...
    2. unable to copy package source file archive.bom to destination reciept
    3. Install failed: Some Files for Base System may not have been written correctly.
    I am at the end of my rope. Please help. Thanks!

    I agree...bad drive or bad controller or even a bad connection. Hardware issues on computers still under warranty should be dealt with by Apple. Even though you have already run the hardware test, there could still be a hardware problem. You could try booting from a disk repair utility like Disk Warrior but that means you would have to buy the utility and that's money you should not have to spend on a machine that is still covered by warranty.
    There is one other thing you could try and that would to try and boot the computer into "safe mode" and try everything discussed in this article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Also, if you have access to another Mac, you could try booting your computer into target disk mode and then run disk repair from the other computer. Also, if you computer boots into target disk mode, you can copy any vital data and files before you hand it over to Apple for repair.

  • My DVD will play DVD's but will not burn from FCP

    my DVD will play DVD's but will not burn from FCP also the Finder does not recognize when I load a black DVD

    You need DVD burning/Authoring software.
    EIther iDVD or Roxio Toast or try freeware burning software Burn for OS X.
    iDVD is no longer available, but the last complete version that still works comes with Apple's iLife '09 apps.
    You would need to search for this on online sites like Amazon to see if you can still purchase.
    You install the iDVD app and all the authoring themes by doing a custom install of the disc and ONLY installing the iDVD app and iDVD themes.
    Here are a few copies of this for sale on Amazon U.S. site.
    http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=iLi fe+%2709
    Roxio Toast is another option.

    And freeware burn software Burn for OS X.

  • DVD will not play on iMac in Bootcamp using Windows 8

    I am trying to play a DVD in Windows 8 being run with Bootcamp on my iMac (OSX 10.9). The DVD will not autoplay in Windows. You can see the DVD in the folder view, but can only access the Video_TS and Audio_TS files, not the actual playable DVD. Have tried playing it through the folder view as well as Windows Media also to no avail. Booted down Windows and into Mac OS, and the DVD autoplays just fine. How can I get it to play in Windows mode, as the software we are running for a certain program needs to be accessed constantly before and after the DVD needs to play?

    tried the vlc player it's free to download and works better then other players really

  • HT202731 What should I do next when using the apple hardware test and it will not complete. It always gets frozen when 56 seconds of testing has passed?

    MY MacBook pro will not boot up correctly. When switched on a grey screen appears and a flashing question mark box.after researching I have been able to try to complete an apple hardware test by holding the D key when switched on. Unfotunately this text will not complete. Every time I try and perform this text it sticks after 56 seconds of testing and does nothing rlse. Resulting in my having to force shut down.
    I know do not know what else I can do to try and solve my problem.
    Any help would be grately appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I would install a new HDD, format it and install the OSX.  Then I would connect the old HDD via USB and see if I can access the files that are on it.
    If no success and if the data is important, look for recovery software on the Internet.  Most have a trial that will tell you the possibilities for retrieving data but then you will have to pay for the software.
    The last option is employing a professional data retrieval service.  That will be expensive with no guarantee of results.
    Ciao.

  • .mov file will not open in FCP X?! codec unavailable? help!

    I am trying to edit a short .mov file in FCP X. It was sent to me via YouSendIt. Once it has completed downloading, a message reads:
    " The document “S-T3RRA Video Heads by FLOOD(1)-2.mov” could not be opened. A required codec isn't available. To see if additional software is available that will enable QuickTime Player to open the movie, click Tell Me More. "
    When I click tell me more, Apple provides me with some additional media support for QuickTime, however I should not need this for a .mov file correct? The file will not open in FCP X or QT. Any ideas? Suggestions?  Was this file incorrectly exported by the creator?
    Help!!
    Thank you!
    Diego Lopez-Videla

    Yes, it will be encoded using a codec that's not on your system.
    That is a common misunderstanding with .mov - it's not a format, it's a container.
    It basically contains video & audio streams that may be mp4, mjpeg or just about anything.
    In this case, the "anything" is what we need to find out, so we can work out what  you need to read it.
    You could try opening it using VideoSpec - it will tell you everything.

    I have rented two movies on my laptop and they will not completely download..it shows that they are theere but when i try to watch them on my laptop or my ipad it wont open up???? help

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
    Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
    You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
    Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.

  • My iPad 2 will not restore using iTunes. It keeps telling me - the iPad "iPad" could not be restored. An unknow error occurred (4) - I have tried every suggestion I could find so far. Any ideas as to what I can do?

    My iPad 2 will not restore using iTunes. It just quit a week or two ago and showed that I had to connect to iTunes.
    When I do the "restore and update" it does not complete the "verifying iPad restore with Apple" and then shows the following message:
    The iPad "iPad" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (40).
    I have tried it a number of times. Also turned of anti-virus and firewall. Tried on different computers. All resulted in the same message. The iPad is only 2 1/2 years old, so I hope it can be fixed.
    Does anyone have a solution?

  • My MacBookPro (mid 2012) will not complete the boot process. Yosemite's progress widget gets about 1/3 to 1/2 way across when the logo disappears and the screen goes all white for 10-15 secs or so, then the machine shuts down and restarts.

    My MacBookPro (mid 2012) will not complete the boot process. Yosemite's progress widget gets about 1/3 to 1/2 way across when the logo disappears and the screen goes all white for 10-15 secs, then the machine shuts down and restarts. This sequence will repeat seemingly forever unless I shut it down manually.
    I upgraded to Yosemite from Mountain Lion a couple months ago, skipping Maverick completely, and I've done any associated updates that Apple told me about. I don't recall which version of Yosemite I have, but I'm sure it is the "latest and greatest".
    I've tried re-starting in Safe Mode / Safe Boot and that does the same thing as described above except without the endless restarts. Instead of restarting at some point, SafeBoot proceeds to the white screen and then it hangs until I restart it manually. (I've waited as long os 20-30 minutes with no response).
    When I tried the option-command-p-r key combo I never get any chimes or other noises besides the original 1 time boot sound that you would expect to get when starting up a macbook pro.
    I was using the mac quite normally (meaning I was doing work I normally do on it and there was no indication of anything wrong) immediately prior to this happening.
    The machine is BootCamp(ed) with Windows 8.1 which I use from a VMWare virtual machine instead of natively so that I can have both OSes running at the same time. I also think this is unrelated to my problem. I have been using this setup for more than 2 years.
    My upgrade to Yosemite was uneventful and I thought it went well and was very smooth. I don't want to lead attention away from Yosemite, but at this point my problem does not seem related to the upgrade.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Install or Reinstall OS X from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
          the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
               because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • DVD will not stop and start in a Menue Mode

    Hello I am using DVD Studio Pro 4 for a school project and i am looking for some help with this problem.
    The DVD i have created plays and stops when i am watching one of my video tracks, i just can not start the DVD when i am previewing in any menue after i stop it.
    I have created my DVD with 16 menus and 2 video tracks. It burns and plays back fine but i can not stop and start the DVD when i am in a menu mode. The DVD will stop and play when i stop the DVD playing video from one of my video tracks but when i am in menu i push stop on my DVD controller and the DVD will not start back up. The DVD will look like it wants to play but it will not play. I have to open the DVD player tray open in order for it to start the DVD again.
    The DVD is a NTSC, SD, single layered 2.9GB
    Any help would be much appreciated, Thanks.

  • I just tried updating ITunes to the new version and it will not completely download and now I get an error message of MSVCR80

    I just tried updating ITunes to the new version and it will not completely download and now I get an error message of MSVCR80. Is there a problem with the new iTunes version?
    Now ITunes won't open.Help!!!

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • FaceTime will not complete calls on MBA

    Ever since activating Facetime on my iPhone 4S (linked to PTN), incoming and outgoing Facetime calls to my MBA (linked to my AppleID) will not complete.
    I had initially had my appleID and PTN linked to the iPhone so all Facetime calls would go to the phone, however I have since dissociated my AppleID from the 4S (Setting>Facetime) and only my phone number can be used for the phone, on which I can receive and make Facetime calls.
    Since dissociating my AppleID from the phone and is now only associated with the MBA, when I place Facetime calls to my AppleID using my wife's 4S, the calls go nowhere eventually timing out, and when I place calls from the MBA, the calls go nowhere and error out (to phone numbers and AppleIDs). I surmise this is some issue to do with my AppleID being jacked, I have tried associating a different AppleID to Facetime on the MBA with the same result.
    A peripheral, but possibly related issue has occured with the iMessages beta on the MBA, with which I cannot send iMessages to phone numbers, getting a red exclamation point, error which I cannot seem to resolve. The same primary AppleID is associated with this account.
    I'd brought the machine and phones into the Genius Bar only to receive shrugs.
    I had found this article, however it is more general and unanswered: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15597730?searchText=FaceTime%20will%20not% 20complete%20calls%20on%20mac#15597730
    Many thanks to anyone who can help with this request!

    I'm trying to connect (using FaceTime) my iPod Touch (4g, in Florida) to another iPod Touch (4g, in Utah).  We have different Apple IDs.  We are on different wi-fi networks.  If she calls me I see the word "Connecting", but it never connects.  I can successfully use FaceTime with any other Apple device I "call".  What could cause a problem connecting with that one person? 

  • DVD will not play on standalone.

    Ok so here's the deal. I imported my DVD using MpegStreamClip - this is a DVD previously built by me, but back in the days I used Pinnacle... which wasn't so long ago. I imported this DVD as .m2v and AIFF audio, and built a project in DVDSP 4. The simulations run fine and I have had no problems up until the point that I burn the DVD, and the DVD will not play on a standalone player.
    When outputting from DVDSP, do I need to Burn/Build/Format/Build&Format? Is it one of my settings that I need to change?
    I know this question has been asked before, but there seems to be no solution out there yet.

    I have an HVDVD_TS folder, but not the usual VIDEO_TS folder - could this be evidence of my problem?
    It's the smoking gun.
    Keep your m2v files.
    Take the aiff files and encode them in Compressor ac3/Dolby 2.
    Create a new project in DVD SP. Make certain the SD button is selected.
    Import ac3 and m2v assets and you are good to go.
