Freezing when trying to create dvd

i used idvd about 2 months ago and it made them perfectly fine, now it just keeps freezing. i can open it up but when i click on menus and try to drag a file over it freezes and i have to force quit.
can any one help me?

Try deleting the iDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder. See if that will help.

  • AIS freezes when trying to create a new metadata catalog

    Hi,
    I'm really new in EIS/AIS. We are using EIS and Essbase version 9.3.1. I just created a new odbc connection to our data warehouse (Oracle in OraHome92). I tried to create a new catalog but EIS freezes. When I tried to "end task" the console, it closes and would get a message "olapbldr error". Need to know how to fix this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Premiere Element Freezes When Tried to Burn DVD

    My computer meets and exceeds the requirements for Premiere Element 4. It also has about 50 GB of free disk space. I put together a file (about 30 minutes) consisting of stills and video clips, sound tracks, effects, and transition. When I tried to burn a DVD the first time, the program froze at the first instance of "burn" after completion of encoding and compiling. I removed Premiere Element and then reloaded it. I was able to burn a DVD. When I tried to burn again after making a minor change (to some text on still images), I then experienced the same problem even though with the same remove/reload routine.
    From your website, I tried to sort out if the problem was due to my project or my computer system. I could create a DVD folder of a simple file but not a folder for my project. So it seemed that my project file was the problem. I then took the suggested approach, i.e. to make DVD folders of segments of my project and they all worked.
    Finally, I was able to export my project to my hard disk as an AVI file and then load the file as a new project. Then burning a DVD was uneventful. The burned DVD showed that the file was about 1.6 GB in length.
    Would appreciate your suggestions on how to identify the glitch that prevented me from burning a DVD in the straightforward manner. I might add that I had burned DVDs of projects of almost identical composition and length and had experienced no such problem.

    From your description, it sounds like either the photos were larger than 1000x750 pixels in size and/or that you needed to clear your Media Cache (in Premiere Elements Edit/Preferences).

  • Iphoto freezes when trying to create cards and books

    the iphoto app freezes every time i try to create a photo book. I am not sure what to do.

    It doesn't sound like you are actually in iPhoto. The way you can tell is, when you are doing whatever it is you do and the computer "freezes", look in the upper left corner right next to the Apple. What does it say?
    It sounds like Safari is the program having issues.
    Try going to the Safari Menu > Reset Safari. Uncheck the options for Remove other auto... and Remove Saved Names...
    See if that helps.

  • Satellite U205-S5034 - Error when trying to create the recovery discs

    Hi Everyone,
    I am having trouble with The TOSHIBA Recovery Disk Creator. When trying to create the recovery discs this error comes up:
    An unexpected error occurred. Please quit this application and restart it. (Error Code: 0F00FE-F1-00000002)
    The machine is a Satellite U205-S5034 running XP Pro SP3.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks and have a great day.

    Hi
    What kind of DVDs you are using for creating a Toshiba recovery disc? As yet I have tried Verbatim DVD-R and TDK DVD-R and never had a problem with these discs. Friend of tried DVD+R and he couldnt create a recovery disc. After that he tried DVD-R and all was fine but I dont know why this happened.
    So please try other discs.
    Furthermore check the Toshiba page for a firmware update of CD/DVD drive. Maybe it will help you.

  • Error message when trying to create Recovery Media Creation

    I have a HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC 15-n235sa and when trying to create my Recovery Media Creation on a 32GB Flash drive it comes up with the error mesage We are experiencing errors in recovering media creation. Please try again.
    This is after.46% of Verify Disk section. So it is almost there.
    I have tried 4 or 5 times with the same result.
    Help!

    Please try another USB Flash Drive or DVDs. USB Flash Drives indicating Windows 8 compatibility may not work for creating the recovery image. If you are still unable to create your HP Recovery Media, please contact official HP support in your region / country, via the HP Worldwide Support Portal, to see if HP Recovery Media is available for your computer. When you request this media, indicate that it is free because the HP Recovery Manager failed to work properly.

  • ITunes freezes when trying to access "burning" tab in advanced preferences

    iTunes freezes when trying to access "burning" tab in advanced preferences and also when attempting to hit burn cd button in lower left corner.

    Thank you SO much!!! This is Exactly the problem I was having. I have spent untold hours in the last couple of days trying to resolve not only iTunes freezing up, but my network connectivity went bust as well. I like Blink so I'm undecided about whether to uninstall it yet, so I just disabled all of its firewall settings, and presto!... I can not only get my CD/DVD player to read and burn CD's, but iTunes and my computer remain functional. I got my computer to reconnect to the internet by doing a System Restore at a point prior to my trying to burn a CD. Thanks again so much. You saved my entire week!

  • Error when trying to burn DVD

    Hi
    I get this error (repeatedly) when trying to burn DVD recently.
    Error code 0x80020022
    Burning disc failed because communication to the disc drive failed.
    It's self explanatory I know, but what am I supposed to do about it? Is it a problem with my hardware?. I can't see the icon for my disc drive in Disc Utility to check it.
    I've shut down and restarted, tried different DVDs, they're all DVD-R although I did try at first with a DVD +RW and hope this hasn't caused some damage.
    Hope someone can help thanks.
    I'm having loads of problems creating iDVDs as well. But I think I need to resolve issues one at a time....
    Helen

    Hi Helen - here are some general purpose iDVD tips that may address some of your unspecified troubles. In terms of communication troubles, could your hard drive be going to sleep, or screensaver kick in and interrupt the process?
    General tips:
    Do something small first; get some experience before you need to do a big project.
    Lots of memory helps; and you'll need 10-15 gigs of space on the hard drive for scratch space.
    Buy good quality disks - I've seen recommendations for Maxell, Sony, TDK and a few others based on testing. I primarily use the first two and usually don't have trouble.
    Give yourself lots of time.
    Turn off your screen savers and energy savers; don't let your hard drive go to sleep.
    Get your computer healthy and ready for some heavy lifting. (video work could be the hardest job your computer can do) MacJanitor and Apple's DiskUtility's Repair Permissions is my routine.
    Most of the time iDVD is working, it is encoding (compressing) your video to fit on the DVD. Create an image .img file (patchburn for iDVD 4 and older) and use Toast or Disk Utility to burn it to disk. Burn slow (1 or 2x) and let it cool down.
    I keep my projects under 60 minutes (for highest resolution).
    Try testers; you can use DVD-RW
    I import into iDVD rather than export from iMovie (fewer errors).
    No other apps open.
    Let it encode and burn while you go to bed; it can take awhile, esp. on older Macs. Don't quit iDVD even when the DVD is burned, until you've played the DVD in a regular player (it's much easier to burn another disk and check to see if the problem was a bad disk, than to go back through all that encoding again by quitting iDVD).

  • "Recovery partition not found" when trying to creat recovery discs.

    I received the following error message when trying to create recovery discs for the first time "recovery partition not found"  HP G61 401SA Notebook and it is a couple of years old and has windows 7 as th OS.
    I specifically purchased DVD-R discs for the disc creation, which was advised from HP site was the only disc suitable.
    Am I doing something incorrect or is there an issue?
    Is this why I am unable to also create a back up - are the two things related?

    One more thing, could you advise on how much space the recovery might be approximately - I will need to make sure a USB has enough memory available. Take another look at the disk management window. The partition sizes are visible in the descriptions. My HP loaner has a large recovery partition at >20GB. That mean I had to use a 32GB usb flash drive Most others are smaller and a 16GB usb flash drive will suffice.

  • Elements 10 organizer keeps stopping when trying to create a slide program.

    When trying to create a slide program Elements 10 Organizers stops working about half way through the selection.  How can I correct this problem?

    Thanks Lennart for your help...you are the man!
    I tried what you said and was able to import my movie into iDVD although I still had trouble writing the DVD (4 more times) as the titles page viewed with the wrong buttons and the sound was out of synch with the movie.
    I tried once again from within iMovie and clicked the 'proceed' button instead of 'render and proceed' and this seemed to work okay.
    I then went on to create the DVD which worked fantastic.
    Thanks for your help which lead me in the right direction.

  • Visual Studio 2013 hangs/freezes when trying to click the designer view

    my Visual Studio 2013 update 1 hangs/freezes when trying to click the designer view, after clicking "Design" I can not click "split" neather "Source". What can I do ? I already tried to set the "HTML (Web Forms) Editor
    " as "Default"... thanks for support.
    In VS2010 the same worked fine.
    I "Run as Administrator".
    ty for help

    Hi,
    I assume that you are not using VS2013 Express version. In order to get the reason about the hang issue, please use devenv /log to gather activity.xm log and find HR error from this log.If it shows some package corrupt, try to repair your VS.
    Here are my general suggestions:
    Please try to run devenv /ResetSettings (in command prompt) to eliminate the related potential settings problem.
    Try disabling Add-ins (e.g. “Tools” | “Add-in Manager”) or run “devenv.exe /SafeMode”.This can eliminate the possibility that third party Add-ins or packages are causing problems. Also you can try these command lines:
    devenv.exe /resetskippkgs and devenv.exe /resetuserdata 
    Try to create a new user account. This can help isolate user profile corruption related causes.
    If the suggestions above are no help, please reinstall your VS.

  • RoboHelp10 freezes when open or create a project

    RoboHelp10 freezes when open or create a project.  I have been working around this, but can no longer do that.
    I need to rename one topic within a project and cannot do that because of it freezing.
    I uninstalled and re-installed RoboHelp 10 this morning and it didn't make any difference.
    I'm using RoboHelp HTML on a Windows 7 OS.
    Thanks,
    Diane

    It is local.  No source control involved.
    I was trying to create a project. RoboHelp also freezes when I use the
    "Open" folder on the RoboHelp startup page or File > Open.  It does not
    freeze if I open a project by clicking on one of the recent projects that I
    have used on the startup page.

    Question
    When trying to create a desktop icon, it does not go to the URL.....instead I get 'script' and not a website......the script has http//etc but I am not directed to the website......I previously had IE 8 (on Vista).....is that the problem?I do not have any installed plugins....at least none that I know of.....remember I am a new user......Basically, the desktop icon is not going directly to the Mozilla FF to get me to the web site I need to go to.....FF works when I use the Mozilla FF icon.....just not the icons I create.....THANKS!!! I have also tried reinstalling FF and get the same results.....HELP!!!

    The address beginning with file:/// denotes a saved file (local file). The file may not be present. You can try dragging the site icon of this page on the left edge of the location (Address) bar and release it on the desktop. Please try opening it. If it still shows an error it could be a problem with the system's zone permissions. You can try setting each zone in the Windows Control Panel or IE > '''Internet Options''' > '''Security''' tab to '''Default Level'''.
