How do I know the correct burn speed?

My Pioneer/Apple DVD burner is recognized in the iTunes preferences, I have DVD-R media, but when I try to back up my iTunes, I get an error message saying that the burn speed is too fast for my media. I selected 1x speed in preferences, and I still get the error message. I've wasted 3 DVDs trying to backup iTunes. What am I doing wrong? The DVDs say up to 16X and so does the DVD burner. I'm using an iMac OS X 10.3.9.
iMac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

I am using a PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-111D external, with USB 2, and was using Verbatim DVD+R 16X DVDs. I had tried Memorex earlier with Toast 6, and the burner would start to burn, then just stop. I have successfully burned photo DVDs with it using Toast 5 and the Verbatim DVDs. The DVD burner is supposed to burn up to 16X, as well. I have a large iTunes library, but wasn't given the option to select playlists before burning the DVD. Thanks, Linda74020

  • How do I know the correct memory to get for my MacBook Pro?

    It has 4 Gigs but I want to put in the maximum possible amount of memory. How do I know the maximum that the system can take and can someone let me know which ones to buy/what memory is compatible? I buy from this site: www.komplett.ie. Thanks.

    "I was of the impression you could install up to 16 Gigs? Am I thinking of a PowerMac G5?"
    Yes.

  • How to find out maximum possible burn speed.

    Hello,
    How do you choose the best burn speed in Disk Burner?
    I am using OS 10.1.5 and I found the Disk Burner settings in the "Disk Copy" Utility. I clicked on the preferences (of the "Disk Copy" Utility) and then set the burn speed to "maximum possible". When I burned the DVD however it gave me an error. And so I thought maybe I would choose a slower speed. However I do not know what speed it was actually using when I had selected "maximum possible".
    Is there a way, when you select "maximum possible", that you can identify exactly what speed Disk Burner is using?
    So I am going to guess that the maximum speed for my burner is 4x (due to the fact that it takes about 30 minutes to burn a 4 GIG DVD)
    So then I chose 2 x to see if that would work.
    2 x also caused the same error (error code - 7932)
    Maybe I will try 1x next.
    I have the feeling the error may not have been because of the speed at all and may be because of the size of the DVD I am trying to write. I have had success writing DVDs that are under 4.1 GIGs. Anything larger than 4.1 generates that error. If this is so, it is most likely because I was forced to make my startup partition for OSX 7.99 GIGS. Thats a little small for burning DVDs but I didn't have much choice because of this limit on beige G3 models and OSX.
    Well back to my original question:
    Is there a way, when you select "maximum possible", that you can identify exactly what speed Disk Burner is using?
    Thanks

    Not sure if it is different in your version of OS X, but in 10.3, you can go to Applications -> Utilities then run the Terminal application. At the prompt type in drutil info and hit return. This should give you all the info on your optical drive including who is the manufacturer and model number. With those two last bits of info, you can simply do an internet search and find info on your drive including maximum burn speed.
    As to in your system, the maximum burn speed will be whatever is ranked lower, the drive speed or the media (blank speed). So if your drive is 8x and your media is rated 4x, then theoretical max speed is four times. Of course it could end up even lower if, for example, your drive does not understand the speed rating on the media you bought, it which case it would likely then default to 1x speed.
    I think if you pull up, again speaking in terms of Panther here, the activity console one of the logs will tell you what speed was used. I am not at home right now, so I can not actually dig through my computer to tell you exactly where to look.

  • How to know the correct size of an image?

    hello, a thing ive never got a satisfying anwer on:
    how can i know the REAL image size of an image?
    1.
    image 1a: this is the size i see in the photoshop window
    1b: (why by the way is there 2 sizes?)
    2. image 2: the size i see in windows/my documents.
    same image, big differenct (8mb <--> 49mb)
    which one is correct?
    image 1: size in photoshop window
    image 2: size in windows/my documents

    Don't feel bad; there are more "size" indications than you'd think you need, but they're all useful for some things.  And there are some interrelationships.
    Size indications you might find:
    The size in "megabytes" of the image document in your computer's RAM (the first of the two numbers in your first image). This is helpful for getting an idea of how many resources in your computer the process of editing a particular document is taking. This number can grow to much larger than the second number, for example, if you have a lot of layers in your document that Photoshop has to maintain separately in RAM.  This size number will be reflected in the ultimate file sizes on disk when you save master documents (e.g., PSD) in which you maintain all the layers and other information used by Photoshop.
    The size in "megabytes" of a flattened TIFF on disk (the second of the two numbers you showed in your first image above).  This was a quick defacto shorthand developed by early people doing film scanning that described how many bytes on disk a flattened, uncompressed 8 bits/channel TIFF file would take.  It is always 3x the size of the image in megapixels, because it's the number of horizontal pixels multiplied by the number of vertical pixels multiplied by 3 colors per pixel (red, green, blue).  This usage of "megabytes" is often confused with the size a file actually does take on RAM or on disk, but they can be very different depending on file formats.
    The size on disk of the actual file you saved, as listed by Windows Explorer.  Since you did NOT save the image as a flattened, uncompressed 8 bit TIFF file, but probably as a PSD or JPEG file, each of which embody data compression, the file actually saved on your disk ended up smaller than the projected TIFF file size.  The amount of compression usually differs depending on the image content, so you might find this size varying.  The file size on disk is what will be important to web publishers.
    For what it's worth, I prefer to think primarily of the size of an image document in pixels (horizontal x vertical).
    I always keep my mind on the pixel count while editing. Then, when I'm preparing to use the image for a specific purpose, I think in terms of output size.
    Photoshop's Image - Image Size... dialog is where you set sizes. If you choose to resample, you change the pixel count. This can be appropriate for downsampling an image in preparation for web publishing, where you want the image to be a certain size on a screen. If you don't resample, you are changing metadata kept in the document that instructs Photoshop how large you want a print.  The size of an image in pixels DOES affect the size on disk, and the File - Save process for some formats (e.g., JPEG) puts up a dialog to allow you to choose a compression quality level, which additionally affects the size on disk.
    Hope this helps illuminate what you're seeing a little.

  • How do you know the best iMac display size

    how do you know the best iMac display size
    Only on them fits in the screen window and that makes the font so tiny.  The others are too wide or too tall.  I usually view at 150 - 200% for vision issues.

    You say it's better to do the Media Browser?  I'm fairly new to movie, dvd and garage band.  How would I go about using the Media Browser instead of straight to iDVD?
    Select Your project - go up to Share - Share to Media Browser and as Large (Not HD)
    In iDVD select a nice theme - click on Media button - click on Movie - Select Your movie.
    NOW - Save as a DiskImage - and test this before burning DVDs - if this Plays OK then either burn the Image by using Disk Util tool (and set down burn-speed to x4) - or burn via iDVD (will take more time)
    I want to keep as much quality as I can.
    Then don't use iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - as they all discard every second line resulting in less quality on the DVD. I use iMovie HD6 or FinalCut any version.
    Also...I tried to split my project in iMovie...but couldn't find a way.  I wound up just making a copy and then deleting out a handful of scenes from the copy...I still have the original at 4:12hrs.  Is there a way in iMovie to split a project? 
    I would make a copy and cut away a bit from the end - calling this Part 1 and from start of the other copy Part 2.
    OR - there are other programs that can squees in more to a DVD e.g. Roxio Toast™ - BUT this has two cons.
    • It costs - to me it was well spent mony as it can so much more e.g. back engineer a DVD to an editable form
    • Squeesing in more on a DVD - costs in QUALITY - and as You want as much as it can be - then 90 minuts portions encoded with Pro-Quality encoding and full quality interlasced material from a video-editor that delivers this is the way to get 100% of what DVDs can do.
    DVD is as standard only SD-Video - HD not possibly. Then You need Blu-Ray. (also Roxio Toast™)

    Whenever I update my iPhone software, it asks me to sign in to iCloud with an old email address.  My other devices all have the correct address.  How can I get the correct address for my iPhone?  The only Apple ID that works for logging in is my new one.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone (if you're using iOS 7), then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • How Can i know the orders source. ?? IDOC or VA01

    Dear All,
    sometimes we create a new order with reference to the order which was created by using IDOC.
    How can I know the difference between ..
    1) Order created with VA01. (Some of the fields may copied from order created by IDoc.)
    2) orders created with IDOC.
    Please let me know.
    Thank you
    Madhu

    Thank you for your reply, but the suggestion you have given may work for us. as when we create a order with reference to other order or when we create a order using we19. the newly created order will have all the details of older order and that information will be in EDIDC, which will not be correct.
    regards

  • Hi, can you help?  My emails that I have received show the date received as either today, yesterday or July 28.  How can I get the correct date received?

    Hi, The emails that I have received show the date received as either today, yesterday or July 28.  How can I get the correct date received?

    That's very scary. They might do it, but I personally have never had Apple contact me re id's except on their site when signing in. I suggest you DO NOT respond until you have a phone conversation with Apple security. They can verify if they sent you the e-mail and why.
    While it's very possible it's true,again, I suggest you not respond until you speak to someone at Apple. I've often read here that when people sign in they are not allowed to because "someone else has used the id" type of statement.
    Also, you should be able to go to the app store and see what apps you have downloaded.
    Though it could have been a free app, have you checked to see if any were bought with your id account?
    I've gotten these types of e-mails from places like USPS and FedEx which look amazingly authentic and were from their website. I also received an odd e-mail from my cousin in Ireland last year that clearly was not from him. It was also sent to others in his family in Ireland. I e-mailed him that I only opened it because it had a .ie, but suggested he change... Days later I received mail from 'him' - same name, but at yahoo.com. 
    Again, I would call Apple. You can also report it at [email protected], but I would not settle for that given your situation. If nothing else, call Apple sales (sales depts. anywhere answer fast) and ask them to transfer you to security. Apple will not want anybody accessing their name, and while it's unlikely, it's not impossible that it is someone phishing.
    Hope this helps and can you let the support community know your results by posting on this thread when you're done? Thank you.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do we know the document is revered or not using transaction FBR2?

    Hi
    How do we know the document is revered or not using transaction FBR2?  
    I mean is there any table updates the flag or document number. This document numbers are available in table BKPF.
    I will explain clearly.
    1) If new document is created... then BKPF will created entry with Doc type is "AC"
    2) If above document is reversed using transaction FBR2.... then table BKPF will create document with doc type "AD".
    But How would we knows Document type "AC "is reversed or not? Is there any field will update for this doc is reversed or not?

    Well, you aren't getting the correct response because you're using the wrong term and likely the posters aren't familiar with FBR2.  FBR2 is not a reversal transaction.  When you use FBR2, you are simply generating a REVERSE posting, not a 'reversal' or cancellation.  The REVERSE (meaning 'opposite') posting is made according to the configuration you have for your document types and posting keys.  The only way you can identify this is via the TCODE field.
