Followed video about burning my completed movie to a DVD and iDVD was not listed in the sharing drop down. What gives?

Why wasn't iDVD listed in sharing drop down when trying to burn DVD?

Hi
If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
• iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
• DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
• Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
• Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD

only You can buy from Apple is
• FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.

You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

    hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music'  then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

  • "the movie I bought and downloaded" was not copied to the iPod "myipod" IPod" because it cannot be played on this iPod.

    I bought a movie on ITunes, and now it says: "movie name" was not copied to the iPod "my ipod" because it cannot be played on this iPod. What's up with this?

    What kind of iPod? Maybe the format is not compatible?

  • Burning 2 quicktime movies onto one DVD using iDVD

    I wonder if you could help me.
    I have 2 Quick time movies - created in FCP - one hour and 10 mins each . Is it possible to put both on one DVD using iDVD? (one is the front view and other side view of a performance).
    I have version 5.0.2 iDVD and am burning on desktop G5
    Both movies have chapter markers (created already in FCP)
    Is it possible to do this and how do I do it using the right menu and proper theme etc- and right method of importing or loading the movies.
    Any suggestions?
    Many thanks

    Hello Nan,
    a Single Layer DVD can hold a maximum of 120 min of video (incl. menus), so either you burn 2 SL DVDs or try to put both movies on a Double Layer DVD, provided you have a burner capable of writing DL DVD.
    how do I do it using the right menu and proper theme etc- and right method of importing or loading the movies.
    I suggest you have a look at this tutorial by Ken Stone: Authoring with iDVD 5

  • ?? burn multiple iMovie movies onto one dvd with iDVD

    I understand how to burn a single iMovie project onto a dvd by using the share menu to share with iDVD. But how can i burn multiple iMovie projects with iDVD onto one disc??

    You can share the first movie from iMovie, but all the others will need to be exported from iMovie as movies and dragged into the iMovie project.

  • I have a movie that has stopped and restarted a hundred times in the past 3 days what can I do to make it download

    Movie hasnt downloaded for the past 3 days

    Hello __sara__13,
    From what I can gather from your post, it sounds as though your iTunes content isn't downloading to your comptuer. I have located an article that may help you. It contains some quick troubleshooting steps you can attempt:
    iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
    If your download was interrupted using your Mac or PC
    Open iTunes.
    Choose  Store > Check for Available Downloads.
    Type your account name and password if prompted.
    If these steps didn't work for you, try the following steps to resolve issue.
    Restart your iOS device or computer.
    Check for updates for your Mac or PC and install any software updates. Also, update any security software you may have (anti-virus, anti-malware, firewall, and so on).
    If using Wi-Fi for Internet access, try using a different Wi-Fi network when downloading. If you are connecting to a home network, try restarting your Wi-Fi router. Also, check for and install any firmware updates for your Wi-Fi router. (Refer to the manufacturer's website for your router to get information on updating its firmware.)
    If you are using a Mac or PC, try using an Ethernet cable for wired Internet access instead of using Wi-Fi. If the issue is still unresolved and you're using iTunes for Windows, follow the steps to troubleshoot security software issues.

  • I downloaded a TV/computer program both as an mp3 (audio) and mp4 (A&V).  But the download did not appear in the download drop-down or in itunes.  Does that mean I cannot burn that mp3 or mp4 to a CD or DVD?

    I download a TV/computer program both as an mp3 (audio) and as a mp4 (A&V) I could play them directly using the URLs but neither appeared in the download dropdown or in i tunes.  Does that mean that these files cannot be burned to a CD or DVD?

  • My client completed a form - submitted it - and it was not forwarded to me.

    I have checked the box to send me a notification (as I do on the other 90+ forms I use); and to include data.

    Did you actually receive the data in the response table but just didn't receive the notification email? Or have you not received the successful submission data in the response table as well?

  • When burning a completed movie in idvd the whole sound track of the last chapter disappears

    When burning a completed movie in idvd the whole sound track of the last chapter disappears. When I play the whole movie in iDVD before burning to disc both the sound tracks are their, but when burnt to a DVD the two sound tracks disappear half way through the last chapter, can any one help please.

    Mike,
    There is an iMovie forum, please click the link and repost your question. I suspect the iMovie guru's may be able to help you out.

  • When I try to burn my slideshow.mov to a dvd disc, it will burn but when i put it in the dvd player it says 'disc error'. I have burned it thru iDVD before but forgot how to do it and it won't do it now. The slide show is on my desktop

    Rather than burn directly to disk follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

  • Everytime I try to burn an iMovie project to a DVD with iDVD, the disc is ejected during the Burning and Multiplexing phase before it's completed.

    For months I have been unable to burn any iMovie project to a DVD using iDVD.  During the Burning and Multiplexing phase the disc is ejected before it's complete.  I went the Genius Bar and after many tests I was told that my disc drive was pretty much dead.  The person that helped recommended that I buy an external DVD burner from amazon.  I bought the new drive and I can now burn files, but I'm still encountering the same issue burning a movie.  Does anyone have any idea what'g going on?  I'm extremely frustrated at this point!

    To begin, what ADA-compliant options are available to work with a service representative? Good question, and one that I don't know the answer to.  Does anything on this page help? Products & Services Overview | Verizon Wireless
    1) I was charged for service following the cancellation of my service; this includes a period following cancellation during which no service was provided.  Service is normally billed through the end of the billing cycle, whether service is provided or not.  "Cancellations will become effective on the last day of that month’s billing cycle, and you are responsible for all charges incurred until then." After working with a representative in person, I was told that my final bill would be adjusted to reflect the legally billable amount. According to their legal docs, the "leagally billable amount" is through the end of the billing cycle. This was three weeks ago and I haven't received a response, and I haven't been able to find a way to pursue a resolution - What can I do to help move this process forward?
    2) It appears I will be unable to pay my bill after this dispute has been reviewed. My phone number is no longer with Verizon. The online bill payment login requires a phone number - I have never been provided with any other account number. Unfortunately, Verizon appears to close access to online bill payment when the phone number is transferred, even to accounts with unpaid invoice amounts. How can I pay my bill online?  You cannot pay online once the account is cancelled.  You will be mailed a paper copy of the final bill, and you can mail a check, or possibly call in and pay over the phone.  But online is no longer an option once the account is cancelled.

    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.

    Congratulations on the new Mini. Are you saying you tried burning and it does not play, or do you want to burn it only for the computer to be able to play it?

  • I have about 130 gigs of movies on my iTunes and was wondering if I can just put them on my backup hard drive and remove them from my main computer to free up the space

    I have about 130 gigs of movies on my iTunes and was wondering if I can just put them on my backup hard drive and remove them from my main computer to free up the space.

    I haven't done this with an external drive, but I would imagine it works the same way as if you have multiple internal drives.  Also hopefully it works with less headache in OSX than in windows.
    Anyway, move all your music over to your external, and then go into itunes -> preferences -> advanced -> iTunes media folder location.  Navigate to your drive, and pick the folder you want.  Ensure that your folders are set up like they are in your ~/Music/iTunes folder, or wherever your iTunes is currently pointing.  Then quit and restart itunes.  If your music doesn't show up, try dragging your music folder from your external onto itunes, and it will hopefully update your library.xml.
    As far as Jerry's problem goes, you could try adding another music folder to your library.xml, but I really have no idea whether this will work or not.  If you want to give it a try (can't promise you won't corrupt your library.xml, so make a copy beforehand) you can find the music folder xml element right near the top of the xml file (open it with textedit/textmate/whatever text editor you want (NOT WORD)).  Curious to know if this works, and if it doesn't I have other ideas so let me know.
