IMAC DVD Player does not recognizing dvd movie . I have an IMAC (10.7.4) using DVDPlayer (vers. 5500.26.11) and it will not recognize/play a dvd movie...it thinks it is a blank dvd. The IMAC will play rented dvd movies.   The dvd movie plays fine on my Mac Book Pro (10.6.8) on the Pro's DVDPlayer (vers.5.4) abd in my external Sony DVD Player  The dvd move was made/burned on a PC.   Why will a dvd movie play on my Macbook Pro and not my IMAC?

Hello:
This is not an area I have much experience in......I rarely insert DVDs and I have never had a similar problem.
When the DVD is in the drive (and DVD players is open) click on File>get disk info.

  • Adobe slowed down after running fine on a Mac Book Pro Photoshop settings have been reset

    adobe slowed down after running fine on a Mac Book Pro.   Adobe Settings have been Reset

    Hello Gener7,
         I did try everything on the FAQ page (all steps) I also did them a few more times with "Adobe help" walking me through 2 more times.  I just don't get it, I have been on with Adobe on some days up to 5 hours at a time for over a month now.  I think it must be something with the installation disc but they say no, no, switchboard is just not working on my OS X 10.9.4.  I even took the computer into the apple store here and had them look it over, reinstall everything and they say it's the Adobe software.
         Thank you very much for your help, it's nice to know someone is reading this :-)  I do work around this by saving the files and reopening them in the next program I need but everyone in class is always waiting on me, (it sucks) and I just think it should work.  Hope you have a good day and I will put an update on here if this is ever figured out.
    Thanks one more time :-)

  • So, I've taken my panasonic printer back to the shop and exchenged it for a Canon MF-4430. Alas... the generic drivers do not make it print. Is it possible to get drivers to make this canon printer work with my lovely Mac Book Pro Snow Leopard, 6.8?

    I could not find a MF-4430 at the Canon site. Are you sure the model is correct? They have a MF4450. The Mac drivers are here:

    If you are sure you have a MF4430, look around the canon site for the drivers.

  • How to move music from pc to mac book pro

    I just bought a macbook pro for school. I have a large number of music files on my pc. I copied all the file to my mac book and then fired up itunes and scanned for media. It seems that itunes is making a second copy and putting them somewhere and my hard drive runs out of space. I guess I don't know how to work the macbook yet. Can someone giveme advise to get my macbook itunes to just recognize themusic files and import them to itunes?

    There is a iTunes Library in your Music folder and yes iTunes is organizing them utilizing copies of your originals.
    Since things are messed up and your just starting out, you can go ahead and click and drag the iTunes Library to the Trash can and from the Finder menu > Empty Trash.
    Now place your PC music files on a external drive where there is enough room, (perhaps a copy is already there?)
    Delete the copy of files from the PC drive if they are on your Mac's drive, this way you have enough room.
    Your basically starting over again with one copy of the files on the external drive.
    Now restart iTunes and it will create another iTunes Library blank as before, now head to the iTunes menu or import the music from the external drive.
    Now it will copy them and organize them into folders according to artist/album get artwork, etc., with tags etc. provided your logged into iTunes and online into the iTunes Library.
    Remmember with Mac's, just like Windows, you need ot unmount the drive first before physically disconnecting, with OS X you simply drag the external drive icon to the Trash can, which turns into a Eject button.
    Or you can select the drive and press the eject key, or the eject arrow in the Finder window on the left side.

  • External sound doesn't play when connected to Mac Book Pro:

    I plugged an external mp3 player into the audio input on my MB Pro, and in the sound system preferences it shows the input signal level responding but there is no sound coming out of the built in speakers on the Mac.  Nothing is muted and the volumes are all up.  I tried this on two different MB Pro's and the result is the same.  The audio is coming in, but no sound is heard. Does anyone know how to get the sound to work?  Thanks,
    Matt

    You're right. I just tried it & get the same as you described.

  • How do i move my photos from external hard drive to my local mac book pro hard drive?

    I have my iphoto files on an external hard drive.  I need to move them to my local Mac Book Pro Hard drive and I want to do it accurately.  Anyone have any advice?

    THanks Niel.
       In typical "me" fashion I asked the question and then did the leg work and researched the answer (instead of doing the research first!).  I learned exactly what you have posted here.  It sounds REALLY simple.  Thanks!

  • I cant watch movies on itunes on mac book pro

    I can't watch movies on itunes on my Mac Book Pro.  This message appears every time I attempt to select a program:An error occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device “Family Room Apple TV”. The network connection timed out.

    If you are looking for apps for your MacBook Pro, you would be best served by looking in the App Store.

  • I have my Mac Book Pro with the OS Yesomite since a month and I am feeling that my mac is getting slower than before a month. I want to install OS Lion on my mac.  I think i have a DVD of OS Lion which comes when i bougnt Mac laptop in 2011.

    I have my Mac Book Pro with the OS Yesomite since a month and I am feeling that my mac is getting slower than before a month. I want to install OS Lion on my mac.  I think i have a DVD of OS Lion which comes when i bougnt Mac laptop in 2011. Should i install OS Lion? What wil happen if i install OS Lion, do i lost my Applications or ...????

    Hi, the last install dvd that came out for mac's was Snow Leopard,10.6.3. Lion is a download from apple. You cannot just install it over Yosemite. You would have to backup your drive to save files you want and do a clean install. You might want to look into getting more memory. You can run 8 Gig"s of memory on your Macbook Pro.If your Macbook Pro is getting really slow you might want to download EtreCheck  and then post the results here.http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck  Check out this article.  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19031

    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

    Thanks for the question. The following resource may help to resolve your issue:

    If Windows doesn’t install properly
    Verify that you’re using an original, full version of the 64-bit version of Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional, Windows 7 Ultimate, Windows 8, or Windows 8 Pro.
    Restart your Mac and hold down the Option key until one or more disk icons appear on your screen.

  • I have  mac book pro. Since i updated to OS 10.8, I have experienced the following: many of the programs don't respond. Not able to transfer file (eg pdf file og movie (VLC)). Many of the processes seem to be less effective or won't respond.

    I have a mac book pro. Since i updated to OS 10.8, I have experienced the following:
    many of the programs don't respond.
    Not able to transfer file (eg pdf file og movie (VLC).
    The tech tool diagnostic software (as part of apple care protection plan) stops in the middle of scanning.

    First, know that if you have any old PPC-only applications they will no longer work. You should uninstall them completely. Secondly, applications that don't work may require upgrades for compatibility with Mountain Lion. Thirdly, you may have a dysfunctional upgrade for which you should try this:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the 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.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
