I have a macbook pro OSX 10.5.8. My DVD player software 5.0.3 plays all DVDs without a problem. When I load a DVD from Netflix it shows that "the supported disc not available" on the blank, black screen?
I contacted Netflix. They are unfamiliar with this problem. Anyone have any experience with this problem
I have the same problem. I put a Dexter dvd from Netflix in my Macbook pro 0sx leopard. Nothing happened. Dvd player did not recognize the disk. To check whether the Dexter dvd was damaged, I put the dvd in my PC and it worked without any problems. I then put another dvd disk (Kubrick's Shining) in my Macbook and it worked fine, so there must be something in the Dexter dvd that messes up the Macbook. I've seen other posts specifically citing that the Dexter dvds do not work on the Macbook. This looks to me like a Showtime problem.

Why does the DVD player say "supported disc not available?"
So, regular DVDs will play and are recognized on my Macbook Pro, but I'm trying to play a recordings DVD (for a music literature class) and the DVD player says "supported disc not available." The DVD is supposed to work on my operating system since it's the newest one, but I don't know how to fix the problem! Please help!
Thanks!I'm having the same problem lately. I have a mid 2010 21.5" iMac with an internal SuperDrive running Yosemite. I tried putting in "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes" and "The Giver" rented from RedBox. Both spin sputter for a bit and then eject the disk back out. So, it never mounts and no software (Finder, Disk Utility, DVD Player) ever gets a chance to see it. Both play fine in a 15 year old DVD player, and my purchased copy of "The Dark Knight" mounts just fine in the iMac. So, I have to assume that something is being done to the DVD's that rental companies are given to prevent them from mounting or something.
Not having any luck on Google trying to confirm that.
I guess I need to amend this. Both DVD's play fine in a early 2011 13" Macbook Pro with the internal SuperDrive. It's running Mavericks still and has a "MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-8A8". The iMac has a "OPTIARC DVD RW AD-5680H". Not sure if it's the drive, the OS, or what (although I will say I'm fairly certain I was having this problem on the iMac before Yosemite, so it's probably not the OS). -
My Mac Mini doesn't recognize my Avengers DVD--it keeps saying "Supported disc not available." I've tried other DVD's which work, but not this one. itunes and everything else has been updated to the newest versions. Help? Also...It doesn't recognize the digital copy DVD.
I have ALL the exact same symptoms as on my home computer.
It sure sounds to me like something on the iPod is broken. If it's under warranty then I would send it back for repair. If not, check out some of the web repair services, such as iPodResQ etc. -
I'm running OS X 10.7.5 on my MacBook Pro. I can't get a DVD to eject. I'm getting an error message "supported disc not available" when I try to use the DVD player eject button. It also does not show up on my desk top as an icon as it normally would. How can I get the disc to eject?

I want to know how to decrease the quality if a photo. i have a MacBook Pro OSX 10.9.2 system. I used to just copy as and I could change the quality. -Help!
You would do that with Preview.
If the photos are in iPhoto you an export them at reduced quality.
File -> Export

I have a MacBook Pro, I want to copy Itunes files to an SD card to play in my car, the SD Card doesn't appear in Itunes when I insert it, and I don't know how to convert the files to the correct format, can anyone help?
Thank youSo it seems from reading the COMMAND manual that my first issue is that I used a 16GB SD card, and the manual says it will only recogize up to a 2GB SD card. I did use my MB Air's SD card slot and crated a folder and dragged the music files to it, then to the card. So I am going to get a 2GB card and try that next. Otherwise just stick with the iPOD connected. At least that is 8GB

my Macbook Pro (OSX 10.6.7 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) has started misbehaving on me. When I'm working, the cursor will start spontaneously moving to the in a straight line, and randomly right clicking on things.
If I close the computer and open it back up, it sometimes stops for a little while, then will spontaneously start again. Any help would be truly appreciated. Thanks!See this knowledge base article. Also, you might want to update to 10.6.8 (don't know that that will fix your problem, but it's the latest version of Snow Leopard).

One Step DVD in Mac OS X DVD Player = "Supported disc not available"
I created a few simple movies in iMovie HD 6 and burned them in iDVD 6 as One Step DVDs from the iMovie Project file using Verbatim 2x DVD-R discs. The final DVDs have no trouble playing in my standard component DVD players, however they won't play on any of my Macs. I get a "Supported Disc Not Available" error message when I launch DVD Player.
Is there a compatibility problem between DVD Player and DVDs burned with iDVD??My version of DVD Player is 4.6.5 which works fine, but I don't EVER make OneStep DVDs. Check your version.

Supported Disc Not Available error
I have anew mac book pro that is about a month old now. I've never used the DVD player until today trying to watch a movie. I got an error message that states after I pop the DVD in : Supported Disc not Available
I've tried several DVD's and I have the same message with each one. I'm playing a cd right now while I type this. Any thoughts on this problem??Hi - we have the same problem and I tried this fix but the repair permissions buttons are greyed out when I select the DVD Rom - if I change to the hard drive then they become active again.
Can you suggest any reasons why this is ? We are logged in with administrator rights - grateful for any assistance -
Supported disc not available; i.e. imac not recognizing "burned" dvd
After using iDVD, and not being able to create a finished dvd from an iMovie project with my 1000mz iMac, I had to use my daughter's 1.4 gz iBook, and successfully burned a disc image.
After I burned a DVD from the disc image, it played fine in my home DVD player, and the iBook from which it was created. However, when I put the disc in my iMac, the disc was not readable within DVD player. I kept getting the following message:
"supported disc not available".
Although the name of the DVD appeared on the desktop, DVD player could not play the contents of the DVD. After visiting the Apple store, the "genius" suggested the super drive in the iMac is very sensitive, and after age, may not read all discs.
Now my question:
If i need to upgrade to a MacBook (so I have a faster processor to finish DVD projects), and the finished discs are not readable in my iMac, does this all make any sense? Is there another explanation as to why the finished disc was not readable in my iMac, yet was readable in 6 other Macs at the Apple Store? Could it be the media (I doubt), the super drive in the iMac, or the way in which the disc was burned using the iBook? (I used "Toast" to burn the dvd, not apple's "disc utility" .Any advice is most appreciated.Is there another explanation as to why the finished disc was not readable in my iMac, yet was readable in 6 other Macs at the Apple Store? Could it be the media (I doubt)
Yes it could be the media....some drives don't like some kinds of media. You might find if you switch, things get better. I like verbatim. Is it a DVD-R or DVD+R? How old is your iMac?
http://www.videohelp.com/dvdmedia
the super drive in the iMac
Yes it could be that too. Could even be a dirty/dusty lens in the iMac. If it's not working now, I'd try a CD/DVD lens cleaning disk. Some users don't like these and think they can damage things, but not me. But use at your own risk.
or the way in which the disc was burned using the iBook?
Since it worked well in many other players, it sounds like you've got a pretty good burn. But I said pretty good. You can get better burns if you burn at slower speeds - I use Toast at 1X when I want the "best" burn. I doubt Toast is the problem though, just maybe the speed of the burn.
DVD compatibility is still not where it should be for home computers, Macs or PCs.

CONSTANT "Supported Disc Not Available" message when trying to play DVDs
Does anyone have any idea what the **** is going on with Leopard!? Specifically, whenever I insert a DVD to play it in DVD Player 5.0, i almost always encounter the message "Supported Disc Not Available". At first I thought perhaps it was that I was trying to use some DVD encoded or burned with really new technology or something but then thought that that wouldn't be the problem since Leopard was just released and well after the most recent video DVD formats. Furthermore, the DVDs in question were released years ago. That said, what the **** is going on. I've verified and repaired disk permissions millions of times. I've tried restarting, shutting down and waiting then restarting...nothing seems to help. Can anyone advise?
Hi everybody, I have experienced that frustration also. I don't clearly know why the message appears, however I know that it happens with discs burnt form a computer (just like ronanocallaghan said). I haven't found a way to solve the precise moment, however THERE IS a way around it. When you open DVD Player instead of clicking on "Play" go to File > Open DVD Media. Once the dialog box appears select the DVD, select the folder inside the DVD most likely called "VIDEO_TS" and click open. This way the DVD Player will successfully find the movie or whatever you are trying to see. I don't know the reason but hey, it works. Another weird thing is that this just happens in the computer because if you try to play it in a DVD it doesn't give not error! Hope it helps and i'll keep finding the reason of why it doesn't work!

I am extremely upset. I purchased my iPad in SA and now I am in Greece. I cannot download free apps as I get a message that the apps are not available in the SA store and only in US stores. When I change to the US store the same thing happens. What is the point of having an iPad if I cannot use it worldwide??? I feel that I wasted my money purchasing it as I specifically purchased it to use when I travel. How can I get access to all the available apps and why are they restricted.
You can use your iPad worldwide. However, each AppleID is tied to
a specific country's store. To use the AppStore in any country, you
must be in that country and have a credit/debit card issued by a financial
institution in that country with a verified billing address in that country.
It is the developer's choice which AppStores he makes his app available
from, and some countries prohibit certain apps.
To make a purchase from the US store (including downloading a free app
available in the US store), you must be in the US and have card issued
in the US with verified billing address in the US.
You can use your purchases from the SA store worldwide, but you
cannot make purchases in other than the SA store unless you meet
the aforesaid conditions. -
