How do I burn a mailbox in Mail to a DVD?

I'm trying to burn all of my wife's business emails from 2011 to a DVD so we can delte them off the HD.  I did this last year but with the upgrade to Mountain Lion I can't figure it out.  There are approximately 65,000 emails and when I exported it it said it was a 550MB file.  When I did this for her 2010 emails it took 4 DVDs (~17GB).  So....I think when you export it only exports the text and not the attachments.  Is there a way to export text and attachments?  Also, is there a way to burn the mailbox directly from Mail without having to export it and then burn it, or am I asking too much?   Thank you in advance for you assistance.

Movies are not like music that you can burn to be played in a stand-alone player. Licensing agreements.  You can burn the file to a DVD for back up but it has to be played with iTunes on an authorized computer.

  • How do I hide my mailbox and mail contents from other users, leaving other functions of my iMac accessible?

    How do I hide my mailbox and mail contents from other users, leaving other functions of my iMac accessible?

    You don't have to shut down the computer to switch accounts. All you do is click the Apple symbol in the upper left and choose Log Out and that's it. You can also set up Faster User Switching by:
    1. Open System Preferences - Accounts
    2. Click Login Options
    3. Check the box called "Show fast user switching menu as" then choose from either icon, short name or name.
    Then when someone wants to switch users they can. The advantage of this method is if you are have a document open and don't want to close it the document will remain open. If the other user attempts to shut down the computer they can't until you have logged out thereby saving all your data.
    A very simple and elegant solution.

  • How can I burn more than 1 movie to a DVD when there is room on the disc for it. Premiere wants to overwrite once 1 movie is burned to the disc

    How can I burn more than 1 movie onto a DVD? Once 1 movie is burned successfully to the disc, I try to burn another movie and Premiere wants to overwrite the first movie. One movie is 1.2 GB, second is 2.3; so there is room on a 4.7 GB DVD-RW.

    What you report is what it is.
    Each burn to of Timeline content to DVD-VIDEO format on DVD disc results in the disc containing one OpenDVD Folder and one VIDEO_TS Folder.
    Only one VIDEO_TS Folder can be put on a DVD-VIDEO disc even when Premiere Elements is not involved. I have seen that written about online, and I have
    never found a way to overcome what seems to be basic behavior description of DVD-VIDEO..
    Premiere Elements will allow you to write to a disc with content already on it, but only after you give the OK for erasing the disc content before going ahead
    with the burn to.
    If you have several movies, one possibility is to build a Timeline with the movies, use stop markers, and setup disc menus according so that the viewer
    can selectively watch the movies. More on that later if wanted.
    Any questions or need clarification, please ask.
    Thank you.

  • How do I burn a slideshow from iPhoto to a DVD?

    How do I burn a slidshow from iPhoto to a DVD?

    Export the slideshow from iPhoto, that makes a movie of it.
    Do you want to use this DVD in a domestic DVD player? If so, then the disk will have to be 'authored' to make it the correct form for that. If you have iDVD then that's the app you use. However, iDVD is no longer developed or distributed by Apple. You may be able to get it on an old iLIfe install disk.
    Other options:
    Burn: http://macupdate.com/app/mac/21992/burn
    Toast: http://macupdate.com/app/mac/6351/toast-titanium
    But there are lots of others too. Search on the App Store or MacUpdate

  • How do you add new mailboxes in mail? Tried what manual showed, didn't see edit option in mailboxes

    How do you set up new mailboxes in mail? Followed manual's directions, didn't see edit option in mailboxes.

    What type of email account is it ? As far as I know it only works with IMAP accounts (it doesn't work with my POP account), and you should get an Edit button at the top of the list of folders that are currently on that account.

  • How do I merge multiple Mailbox e-mails from different Macs in my house?

    The iSync does not quite fix what I'm seeking...a way to merge, not replace, all of my various e-mails that I send on different macs in my home. So, for instance, if I send an e-mail on one of them, I'd like to find that e-mail on my other two.
    Anybody help me on this? Thanks!

    If you adopt the IMAP account approach first - as long as the IMAP account does not have the same user name and incoming mail server as the POP type account which will allow for creating the IMAP account with the POP account, you can transfer messages from the POP account's Inbox and Sent mailbox to the IMAP account's Inbox and Sent mailbox on each Mac.
    There is no way to merge mailboxes. You can use the Import Mailboxes feature to import the account's Inbox and Sent mailbox from one Mac to another and then transfer messages from the imported mailboxes to the account's Inbox and Sent mailbox in Mail on each Mac.

  • How do I burn more than one file to a dvd in with compressor?

    I'm needing to burn 2 video files to a single dvd, is it possible to do so in Compressor?

    The easiest way  is to put them into a single sequence in FCP, separated by a gap and title, with a chapter marker set at that location for navigation. You could also use Quick Time Pro for this.
    But Compressor cannot do multi-track DVD;s like a full fledged authoring program – such as  DVD Studio Pro. iDVD can also do this if you can locate a boxed copy of iLife…also Toast.

  • How do I add custom mailboxes within mail account set up on IPad

    I set up a mail account on my IPad. Works Fine
    On My mac I have custom mailboxes I set up for customers as well as Saved items. I synced my IPad through ITunes ( selecting to Sync Mail accounts), but these mailboxes didn't come over.
    How can I set up custom mail boxes within a mail account on the IPad

    Haha, I asked for that.
    I get the error "Unable to verify account information" whenever I try and add the account (note I've hidden my email address in the picture)

  • How to search a specific mailbox in Mail ?

    The search results are usually from all boxes and all accounts, which is not what  I want
    Is there a solution ?

    You'll get that if you type "how do I search for text" or just "search" or just "find"
    At the top level, under Essentials, Search Messages gives you the same as the top hit on Eric's search.
    The answer to your original question in the post is given in number 3.
    If needed, change your search to vary the results:
    Search a specific mailbox:
    Click a mailbox in the Search bar. To search a mailbox that’s not shown, start typing a mailbox name in the search field.
    Search several mailboxes at once:
    To search mailboxes that aren’t shown, start typing a mailbox name in the search field, choose the “Message contains:” suggestion, and then choose Mailbox from the token’s pop-up menu. Repeat for each mailbox. Or select the mailboxes in the sidebar before starting your search, and then click Selected Mailboxes in the Favorites bar.
    Why is "Search a Message" and "Search a Mailbox" not intuitive?
    If I want to find something inside a single message, I would choose "Search a Message."
    If I wanted to find a particular message I would choose "Search a Mailbox"
    Or, I would type, "find a message" or "search for messages" in the Help search field and the top hit would be turns out to be the answer.
    Or, even simpler, since "Search Messages" is the only main item referring to "Searching," I would start there. In that case, it goes right to what you want.
    If I really wanted to know about searching for text in a particular message, I would first scroll to the bottom to see what was offered as related topics. Lo and behold, there is a related article that discusses searching in a message.
    However, the help files in OS X are not very robust. They never have been. The Macintosh Way is all about trying things out and see what happens. You can always undo (most of the time).
    But for people who need to read a book, David Pogue makes a ton of money publishing the Missing Manual series.

  • How do I create anew mailbox in mail

    No edit button appears when in mailboxes

    The short answer is you can't with a POP account, even tho the Apple manual never mentions this fact and goes along for several pages telling you how to do it among other things it can't do.  There are several current posts about this.
    Good Luck!

  • HT1103 How can I burn a slideshow (with sound) to a DVD.  I have an imac desktop.

    Does anyone know how to burn a slideshow to a dvd disc.  It has pictures, video and music.  LLaBant

    To create a video DVD disk that can be played in set top DVD players and shown on a TV set you need a DVD video authoring application, like iDVD.  If you do not have iDVD on your Mac you'll have to purchse it by bying a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com.
    Why iLife 09 and not 11:
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them. 
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
    1 - once you have iDVD installed export the slideshow out of iPhoto at Size = Medium or Large:
    2 - 0pen iDVD, select your theme and drag the exported movie file into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    3 - follow this workflow to help ensure 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 and launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was 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.

  • How do i burn a project from imovie to a dvd

    i just finished editing my video project via imovie. i tried to burn it to a dvd as i would in a pc but i failed terribly, does anyone here know how to go about doing. i just want to burn the movie that i have made to a dvd so i can send it to the rightful ownner. please help.

    i just bought the new imac 2012 late release model
    If you are still within your 15 day return period.  Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge.  (There are no realistic substitutes.)
    Nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick.  You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.
    408-996-1010
    800-692-7753
    If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11  (includes iDVD) on disk.
    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

    Yes, there are programs that will put a movie on a DVD.   I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, DVD Creator, Wondershare, and others.  None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie.
    I use iMovie 06 and iDVD 11 on a Mac Pro with 2 DVD drives.

  • How to directly burn .m2v and .ac3 files on a DVD?

    I made a DVD movie processing on Compressor but I forgot to select the "Job Action" (Create DVD), so now I have the 2 files .m2v and .ac3 but I have to burn the DVD. How can I do without re-processing the original movie?
    Thanks

    If you have Toast or DVD Studio you can use these files. If not, you'll may need  to re-encode the movie.
    But try this if you saved the the Compressor project that made those elementary streams. Reopen it and slightly change the name of the output files (say, by adding a numeric prefix to each name). When you do the yellow warning triangle should go away. Change the job action to burn DVD and submit, If it works, you should get a near-complete progress bar in a matter of seconds. Then you should be able to burn your physical disk or make a disk image for multiple copies.
    Good luck.
