How do I copy an iDVD disk?

My Cheesecake made an iDVD. Now I want to make copies. Shouldn't this be a simple task since the original was burned from iDVD?

  • How does one COPY a BluRay Disk

    Woe is me! I have lost my original BluRay disk I produced in Encore some months ago. So I have borrowed a copy from a friend. How do I copy the BluRay disk?
    Or can I open it in Encore?

    Glad Imgburn worked with your BluRay... I use it for ALL of my disc writing with my DVD drive, but don't have a BluRay to test those functions

    If you use his setup, it is easy to copy the entire project to a USB hard drive for backup... that is IF you decide to keep a project for future changes

  • How can I save an idvd disk image to secondary hard drive?

    I'm trying to tshoot a burning issue with my 1st imovie/idvd project (some old home movies). I've found the hints to try the 'save disk image' option, but when I choose that option I get a 'multiplexer preparation error; not enough free space'. I know my primary drive doesn't have enough room but my secondary one does. Problem is idvd seems to default to the primary and I haven't found an option to choose to save to the secondary. Probably something simple, but I'm not finding it. Can someone point me in the right direction?

    You need to move enough 'things' from your start-up hard drive to your external hard drive to free up 10 to 20 GB if you want iDVD to work. Your start-up drive is where everything happens and you can't change that.

  • How do i get a copy of IDVD and will it work with final cut pro x.

    I have a new powerbook. I've purchased final cut pro x because express is no longer available. My Mac didn't come with iDVD and I can't find a suitable dvd authoring tool. Please... some suggestions for DVD authoring or how to get a copy of iDVD and will it even work with FCPx.

    Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge.  (There are no realistic substitutes for iDVD.)

    If you are still within your 15 day return period,  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.
    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.

  • How can i copy files from one external hard disk to another using macbook pro with retina display

    How can i copy files from one external hard drive to another using macbook pro with retina display?

    That's odd - if you open Disk Utility (Applications->Utilities) and select the disk(s), how are they formatted? If you're only going to be used with your Mac, they should be formatted as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".

  • How do I copy my operating system to a solid state drive and make it the disk I boot from?

    How do I copy my operating system to a solid state drive and make it the disc I boot from?

    Where is your operating system now? Basically, you clone it from wherever it is now to the SSD:
    Clone Lion/Mountain Lion using Restore Option of Disk Utility
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue button.
    Select the destination volume from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the SSD. Source means the drive now holding OS X.

  • How do I copy a home made HD video file (MP4 codec) of 10 GB from an external hard disk to my Mac Book Pro? Thanks

    How do I copy a home made HD video file (MP4 codec) of >10 GB from an external hard disk to my Mac Book Pro? Thanks

    I will never know if the problem was one of transfer or format compatibility.  The movie would not copy from one external hard diask to another, both attached to my MAC. But when the movie (which was in mpg by the way) was downloaded directly (without any other intermediary) into my external disk from the computer (a PC) where the movie was originated, the file did copy. And when I attached that external hard disk to my MAC, i could see it  using the MPEC streamclip app.
    Thank you anyway!

  • IDVD Disk Image - How long does it take?

    Hi,
    I exported my iMovie to iDVD, added the necessary effects and am now trying to save it as a disk image for ripping out DVDs later. How long does the "Save as Disk Image" process normally take? Mine has been at it for over 2 hours now. It seems to be stuck in the "Process Menus" stage and says "Rendering menu video asset...". Last time it got stuck at this same place , so I cancelled it and rebooted the machine. Now it seems to be stuck again at the same place. Any ideas how long this typically takes?
    Thanks.

    depending on processor (G4, 5, quad, dualcore, Intel), MHz/GHz, size of RAM, speed of hd … you have to calculate between realtime and 10x length of project.... (1h project=10h rendering)
    reading in your specs "macbook": make sure, 10 - 20 GB are free on internal drive to make iDVD working smooth..........

  • How can I get the photos from iPhoto copied to a disk in the order I want?

    How can I get the photos from iPhoto copied to a disk in the order I want??

    To ensure a custom ordering, sort the files in an album and rename the files with a sequentially numbered filename.
    File > Export > Version/Originals
    Then use "Filename > Sequential"
    or "Filename > Album name with index"

  • IMovie does not "share" to iDVD. How can i burn an iMovie to DVD?  I do have a copy of iDVD on my Mac

    IMovie 11 does not "share" to iDVD. How can i burn an iMovie to DVD?  I do have a copy of iDVD on my Mac

    My advice, keep iDVD on your Apple Mac as it is a great software and let's hope Apple will introduce it again in imovie 10.  Since you may have imovie 10.0 (2013) up-dated from imvovie 9.0 (which included iDVD for burning your home made films on imvoie 9.0,)  you can proceed as follows to burn it on a DVD:
    a) your film is completed on imovie 10.0.  Under share transfer it to "Theatre" (default).
    b) open iDVD  and drag the film ex "Theatre" on the space "movie" of i.DVD. 
    c) Inser a DVD and clic on "burn"...
    It worked for me.

  • How do I burn a iDVD project on more than one computer?

    I created an iDVD (7.1.2) project with three elements. Two iMovies made from iMovie '11 and a presentation made from Keynote (5.1.1).
    I deleted the chapters in the slide show to help simplify matters and it did cut down on my burning/processing time.
    I made this iDVD project for my son's 5th grade graduation. We would like to burn 135 copies to give each family one 'favor/dvd' for memory keepsake.
    I do not want to burn 135 copies on my Superdrive (new to owning a mac) and do not want to ruin my Superdrive for a school project.
    I can not take this to a commericial duplicater because of copyright issues with the music. We are not selling the copies, just giving a memory keepsake to the kids- of the year and the slide show from graduation, the other iMovie in iDVD, just contains one page of specifications; like my contact info and songs used etc..
    I have parents that are willing to help me copy the movie, however I don't know how to do this?
    I don't believe any of these parents have iDVD.
    Someone mentioned through all my readings on apple communities and google, making an "ISO" of your project then anyone can make a copy of your movie on any platform: PC or Mac. What is an ISO? How do I make a ISO?
    If I have a .img file from saving a disc image - would I burn the .img file to a dvd and give it to someone else to copy? Are there other files that need to go with my .img file?
    If/When someone takes my .img file and puts it on their computer how do they copy it? Do they need burning software?
    Can I just give a friend a burned DVD of my movie to burn copies on their computer?
    What I tried: Bought a LaCie burner to use a external drive vs. my (Superdrive - worried about overuse). Saved project as a "Disc Image." Mounted to my Finder and then burned to external drive with disc utility. This worked successfully 4 times in a row then kept getting message "unsuccessful burn" I took the drive back to Fry's. Not sure if it was the drive?
    Any advice to a newcomer would be great!
    Summer has already begun and I would like to finish this project as soon as I can.
    Thanks so much, Deanna

    Yes, you can distribute a burned disk of the project to those who can create duplicate disks.  Or create a disk image of the iDVD project using the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option.
    Then you can distribute the disk image to those who will burn the disks.  For PCs you'll have to convert the .dmg file to a .iso file so they can burn it.  This website describer how: Mac Help - Convert and Burn Mac .dmg or .img to .iso Windows PC-Compatible Disk Image
    Suggest to them to 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.
    It would be prudent to rest your optical drive for about 30 minutes after burning 3 disks in a row. That will give the laser time to cool down before you start another batch.

  • How do I delete an idvd project from my hard drive?  If I do so, will it delete the raw videos/images from iphoto or imovie?  Thank you

    I understand that an imovie or idvd project will take up quite a bit of space on my hard drive, so after I create the movies on either program I want to delete them.  I can't figure out how to delete them on idvd.  Should I go to finder?  I'm so confused!

    iDVD only uses pointers to the media, photos and QT files, that it uses in its projects.  So if you delete a movie that you used in it that movie will be lost to iDVD.
    However you can use the File ➙ Archive Project... menu option and that will copy the media into the iDVD project package. Then if you delete the movie file the archived project will still have its copy of the movie to use.
    You won't be able to go back and make any changes to the movie if you do this.  So wait until the project is complete and burned to disk before archiving and deleting the movie files.
    Personally I would get an external HD and save those movies and other files that you might want to delete from your boot drive because you never know when you might want to go back and make changes.  Once they are deleted you can't go back.
