How can I play all-region DVD's on a Mac?

Is it possible to play PAL and other non-NTSC DVD formats on my Mac? If so, how?
Thank you!

Hi,
I have been using VLC on my Mac. Sometimes it works and sometimes not... I wish i could figure out why it doesn't always work.
I have DVDs which are legally purchased from England and Australia because those were the only copies of shows that i liked. Some work, some don't.
Has anyone figured out a good solution to the problem without messing with your drive?

Can VLC Plays All Region DVDs In Macbook?

I am in India and here most dvds are region free or region 0. I remember changing the macbook dvd player to 5 or something but now I want to purchase Lost Season 1 From Ebay US.
Instead of using apple's dvd player can i use VLC on macbook? If I set the dvd player to region 1, will it play those region free dvds.
Thanks

Tanya have a look at this article.

It seems like a hit or miss situation. It really depends on the drive and firmware. Regardless it's worth a shot since VLC is worthwhile to have anyway.

How can I burn a music DVD on my I-Mac to play in my auto DVD/CD player?

I answered your question in your other thread:

There is no way to do it in iTunes that I know of - you can only burn CDs there. You do need other software to burn to a music DVD.

If you are using the 2nd or 3rd gen Apple TV (little black box) then it would have no syncing or storage capability.
iTunes content would be accessed using home sharing.

If you are referring to the 1st gen (bigger aluminum box with hard drive)

How can I play all albums of a same genre in shuffle mode?

Since I upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOs 7, I can't play all my albums of a same genre in shuffle mode like I used to do with iOs 6.

The Touch will only play Albums in the correct track order when you select an album, but then it will only play that one album.
If you want to play multiple Albums in their correct track order, your options are to either:
1- Make a playlist in iTunes that is sorted by Album (or Album by Artist), sync the playlist to the Touch, and play the playlist with Shuffle turned OFF, or
2- Make an On The Go playlist on the Touch by adding one Album at a time and play it with Shuffle turned OFF, or
3- Look for the free app called "Album Mixer" which gives you the "Album Shuffle" capability found on other iPods -- i.e. the playback is by Album in normal track order, then when the Album completes it will jump to track #1 of a randomly-selected Album and play that one in track order.

How can i play music from my ipod on another mac?

i have my music library in itunes (on my ibook). i transfered the songs to my ipod. how can i play the music on my g5? i see the ipod in itunes and also the songs, but i cannot cklick "play".
g5 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

It is set to Auto update.
If it is set to Auto update, when you plugged it in, it updated the iPod to match you iTunes library. Just play them in iTunes.
If you want to play songs on the Mac without loading the songs from the iPod, iTunes prefs -> iPod. Set to Manually update all songs and playlists. They will no longer be grey.
You will have to sync the iPod from home first.

How can I transfer all my info from my old mac to a new one?

how can I transfer all my info from my old macbook to my mac mini?
My Mac mini chash about one month ago and I got it back from apple, I didnt have a time michine back up for this one but in my old mac I have almost all my files, so I want to transfer all the data to the Mac mini with no problem

You can use migration assitant which is located in the Utility Folder under Applications. The compters can be connected via ethernet, fire wire, or wifi. My recommendation is not to use wifi.
You run migration assistant on both machines and you can choose to transfer everything or just data.
Another way is to use migration assistant to restore from a time machine backup.

How can I play all songs from an artist in the ipad 2, with the new IOS 5?

in the music app (which was named ipod before the update for the IOS 5) I want to play all songs for a certain artist that have different albums, but I dont know how.
hope someone can help me

Actually, JinKL, doing a search from "Songs" is harder to do and does not give the exact same result. It's harder to do because I have to key an artist's name rather than pick one from a list. The results aren't the same for several reasons. If you key an artist name that matches a song, you get that song, too. OK, that doesn't happen THAT much, but it does happen. And if I key a partial name, say "Morrison" for "Van Morrison", I get all the songs on "Morrison Hotel" by the Doors.
"All Songs" should be added to the iPad music player. While they're at it, they should add column titles and allow allow sorting on the column values.

How can I play a data dvd on a dvd player?

hi,
can someone tell me how i can play a data dvd on a dvd player?

Hi
Like Jaba already said please be more specific if you want to have a concrete answer.
If you have data like movies in different formats (avi, mpg divx) you must use just right player on your unit (check if some codecs must be installed before).
On external DVD player is the same. Most of players can handle with mpg format. With avi or divx can be some problem if those formats are not supported. If you want to watch photos I am sure that almost every DVD player can handle with jpeg format.
Bye

How can I play all the songs in one genre in iOS7's music app?

Suppose you want to listen to only blues music. In the music app in iOS 7 I can't find a way to select all the songs from one genre. When you select "genre" it takes you to a list of artist in that genre but there's no way to select all the songs. In previous iOS all you had to do was select "all artist" and then "play all songs". In iOS 7 I can't seem to find that option. I've tried using Siri but if the genre of music you have is not in English then Siri won't understand. Also Siri only works if it's connected to a network. What if your not connected and you want to listen to just Blues. Is this option not in the music app in iOS 7 or am I over looking something?

Found the workaround... you are correct, this option was available in prior versions and now it is not.
In any Music app view scroll to the top to unveil the search box.
Search for your genre.
Search results will show all artists matching your query, and if you scroll above that there is a 'Shuffle All Songs' option.

How can I play all the songs on a CD in their correct order?

Hi,
I just bought my iPod Touch, and it seems that it can only play songs in shuffle mode. I like to play my CD's from start to finish, with the songs in the order that they are on the CD. I can't believe that there's no way to do this... I must be missing something. Can any of you wise Touch users show me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi there - don't know what is happening on your Touch as it does play albums in order - when you click on an album to play it, the very first option is shuffle - make sure you do not click on this - but click on the first track name.
If you have clicked on it once - it seems to stay on - to solve/check this - click on a song, and wait for the cover to come into view. On the top bar, on the right hand side while the song is playing - you will see the little shuffle icon (arrows crossing). If this is blue then shuffle is selected. Click on it to turn it off (white). Now go back to the album lists and all should be in order?
Let us know if this works.
Francois
