How do i just have the main MENU appear when DVD opened in player?

i'm doing a DVD in iDVD08 & when i burn it & try in a DVD player the first movie starts playing automatically whereas i want just the main menu to come up showing all the submenus available. can someone tell me how to do this as i can't find any info in help files & an iLIFE manual i own.
thanks
Gary

thanks for replying.
i have tried to delete the first square (the greyed one that says "drag content here to automatically play when the disc is inserted) as i surmised this might be the thing to do to bring up the main menu first but iDVD 08 won't let me delete it?

  • Trouble scrolling on the main menu using my dvd player.

    I can't seem to move to the scenes button when I'm on the main menu using my DVD player. This function seems to work fine on my computer. Before I burn another (very long) disc and try again, does anyone have any suggestions?

    If I have two buttons, one for Subtitles on and one for Subtitles off, how do I make it so that the one that is chosen is highlighted?
    You set it by changing the menu's property for the default button. This is one of the reasons a separate menu is generally used. If you have a single menu with 3 buttons ("play movie," "subtitle on," and "subtitle off"), and you set the default to "Active Subtitle Track," then your "play movie" button won't ever be the default.
    To play with this and to decide how you want your disk to work, create a test EN project with 2 menus. Rename one of them "Main Menu" with 2 buttons "Play Movie" and "Subtitle Setup." Rename the second menu "Subtitle Setup" with 3 buttons, "Subtitle On," "Subtitle Off," and "Main Menu." As noted, the "Default Button" property for the menu "Subtitle Setup" will be "Active Subtitle Track." The button "Subtitle On," using specify link, will link to its own menu, default button, but will specify Subtitle 1. Same for the button "Subtitle Off," except that it will specify Subtitle Off. The Main Menu button simply links to the main menu.
    Note that in Encore preview, do not use your computer mouse to hover over the buttons. It will trick you into thinking that you have or have not set the behavior correctly. Use the little remote function in the bottom of the preview window.

  • Why does my iDVD project skip the main menu screen when starting?

    I just finished a movie in iMovie 09, chose iDVD from the iMovie menu, chose a theme, etc., all was fine, burned the DVD and it works great except it starts the movie instantly rather than showing the opening screen with the main menu.

    When you export to iDVD from iMovie 09, iMovie usually creates an iDVD project in which your movie plays automatically before the main menu is shown. As SDUser has said, you can get rid of that behaviour by going into the DVD map and dragging out the very first item.
    A hint: if you have chapter markers in your movie, and you are using a theme that has motion menus, open up the Inspector (the little i button bottom left in iDVD) and while you are in the Map view click on each menu. Take a look at the length of the menu loop. There is a bug in iDVD that often causes it to make ridiculously long menu loops (in one case 3 hours, even though the menu music clip was 30 seconds and the whole movie was under an hour). That will cause iDVD to take forever rendering your project, and will waste a lot of DVD space that you are need for your main movie. Just drag the slider back to a sensible menu loop length. But go back and check before you burn; as soon as you edit anything else in the menu (for example change the music background) the loop length will have to be fixed again.

  • HT5132 The pop up appears when I open aperture, I do not have a mobil me account with photos and the sync never seems to start and the dialogue box will not go away. How do I get rid of it?

    When I open aperture a pop up appears that tells me that my mobil me photos will be moved. When I click OK, nothing happens and I have left it for hours. I can not get rid of the pop up and I can not get out of aperture. I have to force the computer to shut down. Any thoughts?

    Quit Aperture - force quit if necessary (or try this:
    If Aperture is unresponsive, how to avoid force quitting?
    Launch Aperture again. When the panel appears, press the "Learn more" button, not o.k.
    Then use the "File > Web Accounts > Manage Web Accounts" menu entry from Aperture's main menu bar and remove "MobileMe" from the list of accounts in the accounts pane by pressing "-".
    If the above does not work, disconnect the internet (Wi-fi, Ethernet, whatever you have), before you launch Aperture again. Now the panel should no longer appear.
    Also sign out of MobileMe in the System Preferences Mobile Me tab, to stop the panel to appear again.
    Good luck

  • How do I see my most looked at websites in the main viewing pane when I open a new tab?

    This used to be what I saw on the main area in front of me, but now I have a thing with MySearchDial in front and I can't change back. I have deleted My Search Dial from the programs.
    Thanks for your help.

    hello, please install the search reset addon - it will revert the most common customizations those adware programs do in firefox back to the default: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    in case this doesn't solve the issue please try this: go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information > profile folder - "show folder", then a new window will open up. in this window look out for a file named '''user.js''' (it might be used to overwrite your custom settings). in case it is present , delete or rename this file and restart firefox afterwards.

  • Why can I not have the address bar appear when I installed Firefox 3.6?

    Your "pictures" appeared and I had to choose one in order to continue. It would not clear unless I chose one. From then on, I could have no address bar, just Google, Yahoo, and in very dark bqckground which was hard to see. I tried everything; and finally gave up and deleted my Firefox. I have been a user for several years, but this one messed everything up. I could not get my addresses from the Express, and if I am going to have to use Outlook for the address book, I might as well just use Explorer! Give me some help (I have tried filling in the questions) and I will reinstall Firefox, I did like it a lot.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

  • Looking for an email template I clicked on Smilebox. It installed at least two programs, now uninstalled. But how do I stop the Smilebox toolbar appearing when I open Firefox?

    Even though I uninstalled the two Smilebox programs that were listed by the Windows XP "Add/Delete Programs", when I subsequently opened Firefox, I found that I had an unwanted "Smilebox" toolbar - which appears not to have a delete or do-not-show option.
    How to I get rid of it?

    Many thanks,
    The information at the page identified by the URL above enabled me to remove the unwanted toolbar pretty quickly.
    A small point is that the instructions are accurate apart for tne the fact that the menu choice marked in blue is for "Options" not "Add-ins".

  • I tried to change my homepage but I don't have the "apply" button. When I open the browser again, it goes back to the old homepage.

    when I try to change my homepage, there is no "apply" button to hit, so the browser reverts to the old homepage when I reopen my browser. I made sure my browser is updated, but that did not help. I was able to change my homepage a long time ago, successfully, and it stayed there. I did not notice when this changed or what may have caused the change to come about. I am running Windows 8 with all the latest updates.

    I tried under Options>General>Startup several times. I typed in the new homepage and I also tried Use Current Pages, still same results. the new homepage stays until I restart the browser, then it goes back to the previous one

  • How do I get read of babylon searchthat appears when I open firefox 5?

    It is very annoying ,specially because I am not able to restore the web sites I was looking because babylon takes over firefox and opens instead of the firefox first page . Please help, because I have uninstalled evrything and don't know what else todo.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • How to remove black "blocked plug-in" window that opens with iPhoto. It covers iPhoto and everything under it. I've right and left clicked the black window, restarting the computer, shutting down the computer, but the window always appears when I ope

    How to remove black "blocked plug-in" window that opens with iPhoto. It covers iPhoto and everything under it. I've right and left clicked the black window, restarting the computer, shutting down the computer, but the window always appears when I open iPhoto and it will not move or go away. It stays on my screen (covering my desktop icons) even after I quit iPhoto. How can I get it off my screen?

    Which version if iPhoto and MacOS X do you have?
    Do you have any iPhoto plug-ins  installed?
    Open the folder /Library/Application Support/iPhoto/Plugins/
    To navigate to that folder, open the folder "Library" directly on your Macintosh HD, then inside the Library folder go to Application Support, then iPhoto.  Is there anything installed?

  • How do I get home page window to appear when opening FF?

    How do I get my homepage window to appear when I open FF?
    When I go to the dock and click on the FF icon,
    ''Firefox ''appears in the menu bar but there is no home page window showing. I have to go to ''File'' and select ''New Window'' to get to my home page window.
    In FF Preferences I have selected:
    "Show my home page" and the correct home page address is shown.
    I deleted FF application/program (dragged to trash can) and then re-installed it. That did not help.
    I occasionally use Safari and there is no problem with the home page showing right away when I open Safari.

    The file you need toi backup is name domain.sites2 and is located in your Users/Home() /Library/Application Support/iWeb folder.  Without that file you won't be able to continue to edit and maintain your website.
    However, remember this:
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home()/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    So if you're running Lion or Mt Lion you'll need to make that library visible before you can find and backup the domain.sites2 file.
