Dvds don't play after new install

hi,
after a harddisk crash i installed 10.4.3. on a new HD. before the crash my superdrive was set to region 2 DVDs. after the install dvd player opens but dvds don't start. i only see thin stripes.
i did try with a region 1 dvd but was told that i only can switch once more (out of the 5) which i cannot do right now, because i am in europe for a while.
any help?
thanks.
powerbook G4 12" Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
This is definitely one of the pitfalls of travelling a lot. Region free DVD hacks exist for the drive, but whether or not they will affect your warranty if something goes wrong is hard to say, and I'd take up with AppleCare by phone before trying such a hack. Here are their worldwide phone numbers:
http://www.apple.com/contact/phone_contacts.html
You may also try the hardware test if you have that:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86287
just to make sure the graphics chip wasn't loosened.
And try VideoLan Client which sometimes works when Apple's own DVD Player does not.

IPhoto won't open after new install and restore of back-up

Hi guys
My hard drive just died (for the second time in 6 months!) so I have just gotten the computer back with a new drive. I did a new install of Tiger from my original install CDs, did the download thing to get all the updates, and ran a "restore" from my external drive using iBackup (http://www.grapefruit.ch/iBackup//index.html) to restore all my previous system settings, documents, etc. So far this seems to have worked well, a couple of 3rd party applications didn't re-install - specifically Neo Office and WiFind - but I was able to manually install those and everything seems to be working fine.
Except iPhoto. It won't open. When I click the dock icon it bounces once and does nothing. No little arrow under it or anything. Nothing at all happens when I click the icon in Finder (in the Applications folder). When I searched it in spotlight it told me there was a file called iphoto.crash.log, so I went and had a look at that hoping it would tell me the problem, but I don't understand it. I'm not particularly good at the behind the scenes stuff with computers.
Wondering what I should do now - if someone can perhaps interpret the log file and find the issue if that would help, or if I should uninstall and re-install iPhoto by itself (and if so, how?), or if there is something else that may be causing the issue. I noticed there are a few files relating to it when I search with spotlight but I don't know which of them might be relevant. I could post a screenshot if that is allowed, or post the log file if it would help?
Thanks in advance for any advice or help!
Regards,
Chloë

400 Updates???
Did you Repair Permissions before & after each one?
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, or things don't load/run, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates again, or even do an A&I if you have enough free disk space.
The combo update for PowerPC-based Macs...

The combo update for Intel-based Macs...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10411comboupdateintel.html
Repair Permissions before & after re-install, then reboot again each time.
If all the above do not resolve the problem, then it's time for an Archive & Install, which gives you a new OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.

Restore files from time machine after new install

In my office one of my iMac's suffered a complete system crash. I am reinstalling OS X Lion as I write this post. The iMac was backed up to an external hard drive using time machine. After the new install of Lion how do I grab my user files from the machine backup?
I appreciate in advance your help.

When you complete the installation and boot into the Setup Assistant use the opportunity to restore from a TM backup which will appear in the Assistant. Just have the backup drive connected. You can then restore from the most recent backups of your Home folder, third-party applications and support files, and system preferences.
Restore will take a while, but when done just restart.

Youtube videos don't play after upgrading from 3.x to 4.0.1.

Youtube videos no longer play after upgrading from Firefox 3.x to the new 4.0.1.
The youtube page loads completely but the video never starts.
Firefox displays the page like its done downloading the video, but no video.
It displays as "done" loading the page with no activity in the page tab or bottom bar... but the video screen is black. Everything but the video loads.

Hi There
I seem to have experienced the same problem, after applying the APEX 4.0.2 patch, my theme produced errors on the new type of date picker. I use the Bravo theme.
I am now trying to purchase the Delta theme, but unfortunately I see today on the Apex-Themes website that the themes are not available to purchase anymore.
Did you manage to resolve your issue? And do you maybe by any chance know where I can get hold of the Delta theme now?

Please if anyone can help!

While I was updating the update manager said I need to close the ''Dynamic Link Media Server'' or something like that while the update manager was the only programm that was running, could something be going wrong there? Are there known problems with the dynamic link media server''?

Created DVDs don't play on other machines

I have had an MBA since the summer and bought a new imac last week-end. I have created two DVDs on the MBA using the external disk drive. The DVDs play perfectly well on the MBA, but the imac just spews them out. They also don't play on the DVD player in the lounge, but the one in our spare room (£27 from Asda some time ago) plays them OK. Any ideas?

The way to test a finished Dvd (or even a disc image for that matter) is with apple's Dvd player application.
Assuming the disc image plays exactly as expected, then we can pretty much rule out the machine used to create it. Let's assume it plays fine through Apple's DVD Player, then the next 2 items we need to consider are Media and Burn Speed (hopefully set to 4x or lower).
I highly recommend using the highest quality media available for most macs like Verbatim, Maxell, or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R. I also recommend avoiding media like Memorex (at least while troubleshooting on this iDvd Forum).

Cannot select my fonts in Photoshop en InDesign after new install of CS 4

After a new install of CS4 I cannot select the fonts I installed in the Windows fonts folder. What to do?

I cannot find a adobefnt*.lst.
Where should it be? In the Adobe InDesign folder? Or?
I installed all my fonts in the windows font folder. Before the new install (my HD crashed) of CS4 I had no problem with selecting any of the fonts.

DVD won't play after build and format

I have gone through and created my project, which is just a test for now as I have a 2 1/2 show I need to encode to DVD SP. I have encoded a 10 minute test in compressor using the 120 min preset and imported into DVD SP. EVeryting seems to work fine, when i build, format and burn my DVD it plays in my computer and in simulate mode, but will not play on various DVD players. I have burned different brands of DVD's etc. Is there something I am not doing??? I am going crazy trying to figure this out.

Hi
Besides that MPEG2 settings you must encode your audio to Dolby 2 (AC3).
The DVDs you created don't play at all in stand alone players or play skipping and/or with erros?
Hope that helps !

Quicktime wo't play after Leopard install.

Hello, wondering if anyone knows how to fix this problem. I have keynote project authored on keynotes 4.0.1. Included in the projects are quicktime files. But after I installed Leopard, the quicktime movies will not play, I only heard sound on a blank black screen. Does anybody have the same problem. Pleas advice! Cheers.

The workaround is to go to the Keynote Preferences, in the Slideshow section, and check "Allow Exposé, Dashboard, and others to use screen".

Some of my songs don't play after upgrading iOS 5

I need help...
I was pretty excited with the new iOS 5 but now, i'm starting to get really disappointed.
First, some of my album art work doesn't show anymore..
second, some of my songs don't play or jumps to another song..
I don't know if it's with the iOS 5 or the iTunes 10.5..
please help..

I eventually managed to fix mine.
All i did was untick the box saying "convert higher bit rate songs to 128 aac" (because i had it previoulsy ticked) and then synced it and it now plays every song without a problem.
However, if you haven't selected the "convert higher bit rate...." then try it and sync as there is nothing to lose if your ipod isn't playing plus the songs don't sound any different and it takes up less space

Aperture 3.6 will not start after new install

Rebuilt my Mac Mini with a clean install of Yosemite 10.10.2 and reinstalled all my apps. Downloaded and installed Aperture from the App Store but it will not start. No crash, just nothing. Does its animated thing when double-clicked in Finder, and goes through the usual launch action from Launchpad, but then nothing. No icon in the dock, does not appear (even momentarily) in Activity Monitor. I have Final Cut Express installed and have seen other launch issues with this combo, but they all seem to result in an Aperture crash. Any ideas?

Did you install Final Cut Express after you installed MacOS X? Then install Yosemite again on top of the current system, without reinstalling the applications. See: Aperture 3.x: Aperture unexpectedly quits if Final Cut Express 4 is installed
Aperture does not work after installing FCE, but if you reinstall MacOS X after installing FCE, both Aperture and Final Cut Express sgizld work.
The download of Aperture may be incomplete. If reinstalling the system does not solve this, trash Aperture and download again.

Leopard DVD won't boot after bad install

I ran the leopard installation yesterday and I realized that i needed to do some more work on the drive before i installed, so i clicke cancel and restarted the computer. Now the dvd won't boot. I installed tiger again(came with laptop) and tried doing various other things with the disk. Almost any ntensive use of the disk (booting from it, trying to clone it, etc.) will result in the superdrive powering up and then down repeatedly, sans result. I left the leopard dvd to boot for hours and when it tries it gets to the grey logo and the drive does that power up/down cycle endlessly. I can boot from ubuntu's disk and the tiger disk that came with my computer. The disk mounts to the desktop, btw, and i can browse the files and everything. Apple support was no help.

I've been doing some work with the disk. I did another attempt at creating a dmg from it and got the same result, so I googled the error which led me to a thread on this site with a similar issue. The error was input/output error. They found that it was due to a corrupt file... so I did a cp -r of the disk and it said that a few files did not exist:
cp -r "Mac OS X Install DVD" /Users/mattebooks/Desktop/Leopard
cp: Mac OS X Install DVD/usr/lib/libpython.dylib: No such file or directory
cp: Mac OS X Install DVD/usr/lib/libpython2.5.dylib: No such file or directory
cp: Mac OS X Install DVD/usr/lib/libpython2.dylib: No such file or directory
cp: Mac OS X Install DVD/usr/lib/libruby.1.dylib: No such file or directory
cp: Mac OS X Install DVD/usr/lib/libruby.dylib: No such file or directory
cp: Mac OS X Install DVD/usr/lib/libtcl.dylib: No such file or directory
cp: Mac OS X Install DVD/usr/lib/libtcl8.4.dylib: No such file or directory
cp: Mac OS X Install DVD/usr/lib/libtk.dylib: No such file or directory
cp: Mac OS X Install DVD/usr/lib/libtk8.4.dylib: No such file or directory
So I set Finder to show hidden files and went to these files libpython and libpython2.5 are aliases of libpython2 and libpython2 is an alias of a file in a non-existing folder. A little more digging and I find out that the python, ruby, tcl and tk framework folders are all missing, all from the same folder... interesting. Maybe I could add the files in and reburn the disk. My guess is that the loader looks for these files repeatedly. The path to the files is /System/Library/Frameworks/... If anyone could email these to me I could try and rebuild the disk...

Dvds don't play after new install
