I am in need of a new dvd player HD Blu-Ray and best buy is telling me that I need at least 10Mbps.

Hi Niel, I am in need of a new dvd player HD Blu-Ray and best buy is telling me that I need at least 10Mbps. Where can I find this at my computer before I purchase this item.
I hope you can help me. I have the 24 inch iMac.

If you mean Ethernet, your computer already has it. If you're referring to something else, what is it?

  • Media smart DVD stopped playing blue rays and no longer responds

    I have a DV5z-1200 cto, os win7. i watch a lot of blue rays on it. i just purchased the new tron bluray and half way thru it froze. i tried to shut the machine off but it wouldnt respond. i was able to get into set up and noticed i had a new update (4.something). so i did it and now i get nothing. the drive just keeps rereading the same spot. i have uninstalled the update and when this happened Mediasmart stopped working all together. i reinstalled all the older versions but i couldn't find my original version 3.8 or something like that. i could then get a blu ray to start but now the message about you need to contact your firmware provider on the disk keeps popping up and the disks no longer play. can some one please help.

    Uninstall your present Media Smart with Revo Uninstaller, use the trial.
     http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html
     Restart and install CCleanr and run it's registry cleaner and repeat until it finds nothing. When it finds nothing restart the machine. It will give the option to save a back up of the registry files you are about to delete, save these all as a precaution and note where they have been saved.
     Personally I have never had to reinstall the files, but I like to save them anyway, and when you are satisfied that everything is fine, then you may delete them.
     http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/
     Here is the Media Smart DVD file.  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-87326-1&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&...
    Save this to the desk top and right click to go to properties, and in the "Generals" tab it should read Size: 55,380,920 bytes and Size on disk: 55,382,016 bytes. If this is incorrect then you must disable Webroot Internet and try again.
     If it is correct down load 7-Zip and right click to "extract files" open that folder and find the  "src' file. Open that and look for "Setup" the sixth one from the bottom. Click on that to install.
     http://www.7-zip.org/download.html  (the one at the top of the list, type exe for 32 bit W7)
     Before following this procedure for installation, make sure that you have disconnected from the internet and that your Webroot security is totally disabled. Remember to restart your machine after installing Media Smart and when it says "Press Play to Play" do not do this, it should load by it self.
     This is a slightly older version, but I have tested with Tron and Harry Potter with ATI graphics and I know it works. The most recent on your support page is having a problem with some of the ATI graphics cards.
     This procedure was discovered by another member on the forum, DavidPK, and so far has been the most successful. I am also hoping that disabling WebRoot will solve the problem here.

  • Does the Mac pro DVD player play Blu-ray discs?

    I suspect the answer is no, because the only DVD's that don't work in my player are blu-ray. But if someone can confirm this for me that would be great. If I need to download software to make my DVD player Blu-ray please direct me to the right site.

    You can use a third-party BD drive to read and write data discs. However, there is no built-in software to play video BD's, even if you have a drive that can read them. I don't know whether there is now any third-party software that can play those discs; the last time I remember checking, there was not. It's technically (but not legally) possible to convert BD's to a format that can play natively on the Mac, but that subject can't be discussed within the terms of use of this site.
    The copy protection on BD's won't allow them to be played at full resolution on an external display without end-to-end hardware copy protection (HDCP) in the graphics subsystem.

  • HT2292 I recently got a new ipod touch and the new one will not connect to itunes.  I've done all the troubleshooting and now I'm just plain frustrated.  With the new update my old ipod froze and best buy gave me a new one. What to do?

    My ipod recenly froze with the last update.  bestbuy gave me a replacement.  the new one will not connect to the computer or itunes.  i followed all the instructions and - nothing.  It's frustrating enough as i lost all my notes and work, but now I can't connect to sync with itunes.  i don't get it.  i'm not a supertech so i don't know what to do. help!!!!!!

    Thanks, Bob!  You are correct.  And, we learned this as we spoke with APPLE TECH SUPPORT by phone on Christmas day (800-APL-CARE).  One of their reps spent the time to help us troubleshoot this, but the boiled down conclusion is your answer, and to repeat for the benefit of others, here is what worked:
    1. With our Belkin router set to "out-of-the-box" WEP 64 bit security, we could not get wireless access of any kind.  Only with the Security Mode set to DISABLED, could we gain access.
    2. Changing the router's security mode setting to "WPA/WPA-2...." and entering a new min. 8 char passphrase, and then entering that same passphrase into the IPOD Touch, and restarting the router, did the trick!
    Based on this, and some info found in another posting, I can only conclude that the IPODs and IPHONES do not support WEP security mode in many generic routers used by thousands of consumers.  Hopefully, those same consumers can figure out how to change their wireless router setttings to WPA/WPA-2 security mode and ALSO get all their other wireless devices (PCs, laptops, WII boxes, ROKU boxes) all reconfigured to WPA mode, too.
    I THINK THE BOTTOM LINE HERE IS THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE THAT APPLE NEEDS TO ADDRESS WITH WEP COMPATIBILITY and it may also be the case that MOST CONSUMERS ARE USING WEP 64 BIT security on their home wireless routers?
    In any case, it's working now, so anyone who is having problems should try changing to WPA mode and post back here if it worked for them!

  • I just want to upgrade the dvd player to blu-ray..

    So I'm searching the internet looking for where I can purchase a blu-ray player to replace my dvd player in my HP Pavilion 17-e119wm Notebook PC. I had found a place before, specific to HP computers, but this time, no google search will turn up anything. 
    I already know how to install the drive... but I just need the actual drive, I need to know where i can purchase one for my model laptop. 
    Any and all help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

    What country are you located in? This is a generic 9.5 mm Blu-Ray reader drive (not a burner, burns DVD only not BR):
    eBay
    You can buy one of these and just swap over your faceplate. It will save you serious money.

  • I have just installed the new version of quick time but my Itunes is still telling me that it needs quick time to play the film.

    Can anyone help me fix my itunes? I have the new version of quick time but it is now telling me it wont play my films on itunes because it needs quicktime. Iv tried un installing quicktime and re installing it but that hasnt worked. I dont know why it would suddenly stop working, I watched something on it this morning.

    Can you check something for me please? I'd like to try doing a "Run as administrator" on your iTunes.
    Quit iTunes first.
    In Computer, open Local Disk C: or whichever drive you have your program files installed on.
    If you have a 32-bit Windows, open the "Program files" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit Windows, open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
    Open the "iTunes" folder.
    Right-click on the iTunes.exe file and select "run as administrator".
    Try playing the movie now. Does it play for you without the message?

    Have you contacted iTunes support ? If not then you can do so via this page (these are user-to-user forums, and I've asked the hosts to remove your email addresses from your post) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • Media Smart DVD player plays Blu-Rays only in letterbox format.

    I've checked the settings window, and letterbox is the only option available. Is there any way to correct this?

    @blheinz
     I'm confused, if you mean letter-box with the black bars at the top and bottom of the screen, then this is normal.
     If the original content of the Blu-ray was filmed in 2.40:1 then you will see the black bars and there are no adjustments in Media Smart to correct this.
     I think there may be in Cyberlinks Power DVD10, but I have never played with the settings.
    Find a movie that is 1.78:1 and it will fill the screen.
     Directors don't like people adjusting the aspect ration of their precious movies so it is difficult to zoom the film up to get rid of the bars.
     I think LG makes Blu-ray players that will do this, but they may have changed that.

  • DVD Studio burning blu-ray

    I cant find the thread dealing with this subject although I am sure many people must have raised this issue. I would like to know if Apple finally decided in its new DVD Studio version to add the possibility of authoring in HD and burning blu-rays discs?

    As I said, what I want to know is if Apple's DVD Studio Pro will at last decided to offer the solution of burning the authoring made through this application into a Blu-Ray (rather than having to use another application much more simplified and rudimentary).
    I know Steve Jobs gambled to fully suppport HD-DVD rather than Blu-Ray and he lost this gamble since HD-DVD is no longer a standard. So I am wondering if the reason why he is dragging his feet to implement Blu-Ray capabilities is that he does not like to loose and will do everything to prevent Apple from integrating the Blu-Ray standard in its applications...

  • I have downloaded and installed the latest version of numbers on my mac. Everytime I save and then try to reopen that document, I receive a message telling me that I need a new version of numbers. Also, when I try to sort the date column, it sorts out of

    I have downloaded and installed the latest version of numbers on my mac. Everytime I save and then try to reopen that document, I receive a message telling me that I need a new version of numbers. Also, when I try to sort the date column, it sorts out of order. The last version sorted fine.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    When you install the new iWork version, the old iWork version is kept, so it looks like you are opening your old version.
    To fix this, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and drag the new Numbers version to the Dock, so you can access to it quickly. Open all documents from this version. I don't recommend you to delete the old Numbers version in case you need it.
    Respecting to the second question, you will get better answers in the Numbers for OS X forum

  • Pages is telling me that I need a newer version before I can open my document.  I have the latest version and I am able to open older versions.  Whats up?

    Pages is telling me that I need a newer version before I can open my document.  I have the latest version and I am able to open older versions.  Whats up?

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5/5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.1 sometimes can not open its own files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has not only managed to confuse all its users, but also itself.
    Note: Apple has removed over 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • Just bought an apple iMac went to import music cd only to discover it doesn't have a cd/DVD player can't find any on the apple site what do I need to buy to import cd into ITunes

    ,Just bought an apple iMac went to import music cd only to discover it doesn't have a cd/DVD player can't find any on the apple site what do I need to buy to import cd into ITunes

    Get the Apple USB Superdrive. It is available on the Apple store page of the Apple web site. Just look under storage on the left hand column under accessories for the Mac.  $79.  I have one since I have a lot of DVD's and CD' s. I burn DVD's made from movies created with iMovie.  Works fine. You may be able to find one cheaper at Other World Computing.
    BTW, you can expect that future computers will not have optical disk drives. This is definitely true for Apple and I suspect other mfgrs will also as we move more into streaming video and downloading of apps rather than selling CD/DVD versions.

    You need to use your "emergency email" that you used to set up your iPod to change the security questions and answers.
