How do I prevent copying of my DVD?

I'm making a teaching DVD... using my lecture Keynote presentation. I don't want copies all over the place. How can I prevent that?

Hi
The easy - and Sorry to say only answer is - One Can't do that.
The most common solution is to put a loggo that stays on top of the full movie.
eg. Copyrighted to . Or made by etc. Or not to be Copied.
Not even if You buy FinalCut Studio and get DVD-Studio Pro. You will not get this.
The Copy-protection in DVD-Studio Pro is just a flag set to alert DVD-producers
to make this in DVD-burning Companies.
There is such protections to Commercial materials and to astronomical costs.
And one can figure to what need, when there are no really secure Copy-protection.
One can only plead to respect the Copyrights

How can I prevent copy/pasting of text from my PDF?

I'm having trouble creating PDF security that DOES NOT allow copying of text. It seems I follow the security steps yet still am able to copy/paste.

Yes, I have figured that out and found I need a customized PDF viewer. It didn't occur to me to use a company that creates e-books, etc. Thank you for your help today.

Burning a copy of a DVD

Hi there,
I just recieved a DVD movie of my friend that he made, he has PC (don´t know if it matters, it should´nt) and I want to make a copy of that one. It is a VOB file.

But when I tried to make a normal copy it does´nt work any more in the DVD player, just in the computer...but it did´nt play directly, I had to doubleclick it first and it only worked in VLC player.
Should´nt be that huge problem to make a copy of a DVD or?

Here is an Apple Knowledge Base article that explains how to make a copy of a DVD-R video. The same instructions can be found by using the built-in Mac Help. It will lead you to the Disk Utility program and its Help has the same instructions.

How can I prevent a PDF file from being copied, printed or downloaded? Students should only be able to view the text and and not distribute it in any way.

You can prevent it from being printed by applying a security policy to it
in Acrobat. The rest can't be prevented, unless you spend a LOT of money
on DRM protection.

How to prevent copy of value into condition in PO from prev PO

Hi
I have a manual pricing condition in the Purchase Order. Whenever I am creating a new PO, system is bringing the value of the condition from the last PO. How do I prevent this? I have set the condition as manual in pricing schema, set manual entry takes precendence in the condition type, set the condition type amount/percent as editable/deletable already.
Since the value gets copied from last PO value, sometimes users without realizing this are making another entry for the same condition manually and hence PO is ending up with two values for the same condition type.
Pl. advise

Re: Satellite C660D-102 - How to copy Windows on DVD?

Hello people. I have bought a new Toshiba Satellite C660D-102.
The seller told me to copy Windows on DVDs soon to open the laptop. Do not know where to take the Windows installation files. You've encountered this problem? How can I fix this problem.

Hey,
I think the seller did mean creating the Toshiba recovery disk that contains an image of factory settings. In case you cant start Windows anymore or the HDD must be replaced you can use this disk to restore Windows with all drivers and tools. With other words you get factory settings back, the same settings as you purchased the notebook so its very useful and easy.
You can create this disk if you start Toshiba recovery media creator that is preinstalled on your computer. Depending on the installation you need some blank DVD mediums. I would recommend high quality mediums, Typ: DVD-R from Verbatim or TDK. They work good and other users here can recommend them too.
Last but not least you should also read your user manual. It contains interesting information about this and other interesting things. Its also preinstalled on your notebook. :)
But its really great the seller gave you a hint about this. If you check other forum threads you will read about lot of other users they forget to create this disk and are not able to restore factory settings if Windows failed to start.

I loaded a digital copy of a dvd which I bought to the itunes library. It shows in the Library on the computer, but how do I get it on the Ipad? Help!!!

Not sure if I am doing this correct. I uploaded a digital copy of a DVD movie to the itunes library. How do I get it to the Ipad? Please help, I have been trying for over an hour. Thank you. Garry

Select the movie to sync (click in box next to the name) in the movies tab in iTunes while your iPad is connected to your computer, with iTunes running and then sync the movie to the iPad.
Make sure you are using the correct iTunes account when you sync as well and that you have authorized your computer.

How to import/copy songs from DVD storage to iTunes Library

My PB harddrive had a major failure resulting in total data loss. I have all my Itunes music copied to 5 DVDs (roughly 22g or 12 days of music). How do I get these back into my iTunes music library? I have tried:
a) drag & drop copy from DVD (desktop folder) to harddrive/users/myid/music/iTunes/iTunes Music folder. This results in a transfer, but on opening iTunes, none of the music appears in the library. I tried "Advanced->Consolidate Library" but nothing happens; still no songs in the Library.
b) drag & drop copy from DVD (desktop folder) to new desktop folder and then to consolidate library. Again nothing.
If I go to the folder and double click on any mp3 file, the song starts playing in iTunes, and is added to the library. BUT, it is impractical for me to click thru every song (>4000 songs).
HELP

There are 2 ways to go:
#1 from itunes Menu - File choose "Add to library..." then select your DVD/tracks
#2 launch iTunes, drag+drop those tracks onto "Library" in iTunes' left column beneath "Source"

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 prevent errors importing foreign characters into subtitles for DVD studio pro?

How do I prevent errors importing foreign characters into subtitles for DVD studio pro?
I have figured out just about everything necessary for creating subtitle tracks in several foreign languages, but the only problem is that some individual characters in some languages (like the "open quotation mark" symbol in Lithuanian!) do not import properly into the subtitle track. I can type or paste the symbols in manually, but this means doing it hundreds of times in several different languages, and defeats the purpose of using the system I've created.
Does anyone know how to import some of these odd characters.
I import characters using a text file saved in Unicode-16, and I set the language of the track to the proper language (for instance, Lithuanian).
I can't find the answer anyway, and really am stumped!!
Thank you!!

i think i might have figured out a solution. it's a quirk in the program. i noticed that sometimes the quotation marks DO actually import, but only if they are in the middle of a sentence. they only FAIL to import at the beginning of a sentence. so, what i did was to paste a space before the beginning of every sentence with a weird low-down quotation mark, and it imported fine.
and it also seems to kill two birds with one stone, because sometimes it seems that DVD studio pro cuts off a few pixels at the beginning of a line -- so with a space inserted it just cuts off...nothing.
so far so good. thank you for trying to help, Tom. MUCH APPRECIATED. this stuff can be very frustrating. i'm already going bald fast enough....erg.

Hey there 79usma79!
I have a couple of articles for you that can help you troubleshoot the issues you are seeing with iTunes on Windows XP. The first is a general troubleshooting article, which can be found right here:
iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1421
This article can help you find out if there are any conflicts between your copy of Windows XP and iTunes, and can tell you what to do if there are. Before going down the troubleshooting route though, you should take a look at this article, which can help you back up your entire iTunes library to an external hard drive, so if this issue is recurring, you will be able to restore from that backup and will not have to worry about losing your playlists or music again:
iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive
