I'm not very techy, so be gentle! i am using midvd app to burn home movies to dvd from iMovie '11 version 9.0.9. It now burns the dvd but there is nothing on the disc. its not recognised by the iMac or any other dvd player.
I was using midvd app(i never had idvd) to make home movies on dvd from imovie '11 version 9.0.9 with no problems before xmas 2013. ive just tried to make a new one today and it wont work.
It seems to burn to the dvd (you can see a mark on the back of the dvd as if it has some info on it) but it wont play on imac (just says blank disc) or any other dvd player.
I have tried reinstalling midvd app and also tried 2 other dvd creator apps and the same thing happens the app says its burning and the external superdrive whirs like its doing something but it wont play.
The only thing i have done since xmas is all the updates to the operationg system and updated imovie (i didnt like the new version so went back to using the previous one)
Any ideas - i am new to all things mac!
When you export your movie from iMovie, are you choosing H.264? That is the only compression method supported by this miDVD. Youc an give this a try first:
Use Share > Export to Quicktime > Movie to Quicktime Movie > choose Options and then make your choices in Settings, etc (you can choose whatever size your video is - mine was 720 HD at that time):
If that does not work, I'd suggest going to their support site as they claim to be able to burn to DVD.... I just checked their site and here is their list of supported file types:

It is past June 30 and I still get the warning, but there is nothing to migrate. How do I stop the warning?
Remove any mention of MobileMe in the iPhoto preferences and then in the SystemPreferences

Hi, my name is Molly and my iPod has a backlight but it won't turn on, it's a fourth generation if that helps. I have looked in settings for anything about the backlight but there is nothing please help as I cannot find anything
Go to Settings>Brightness and make sure it is maxed out.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Is there a way to find my Apple ID Name if I can't remember it?

Not sure how this all works but my problem is this: I have attached an external hard drive to my mac snow leopard 10.6 and am trying to back up my computer through Time Machine. When asked to select the drive as part of the set up, there is nothing to select. The box is empty. How do I set up Time Machine for back ups with an external drive? I am running Airport Extreme WI-FI (VERY confusing as I did not know the difference between Extreme and Capsule). Now to add another component...how does Icloud figure into all of this if I want to back up my computer systems, documents, etc? Is this a simplier way as long as I download Lion? Help!!!
Hello,
Problem is likely the Format of the External drive, for TM it needs to be Mac OSX extended Journaled & GUID Partition scheme for Intel based Macs...
How to format your disks...

(To Install OSX on an IntelMac the Drive it needs the GUID Partitioning scheme mentioned at the bottom.)

There are other free options for backing up if interested! -
My email won't send from my iPad. It says the server rejects it almost immediately I press the send email button, although there is nothing wrong with my email account when sending from my laptop or iphone. I have cancelled the account and re-entered it but it hasn't made a difference? Anybody help?
Hi Allan,
Thank you for your help . The account used to work perfectly until recently, after receiving support from the provider, I deleted the account now I am trying to set the account again.
After putting in the first details (name, email, description) Cannot send mail the password or username for "mail.bigpond.com" is incorrect. I would expect this because the information I put in is not for Bigpond. So I press ok & I change the outgoing server (this is the one that is incorrectly labelled bigpond) to aapt, then I press save.
Then it says "verifying" but comes up with Cannot connect using SSL do you want to try setting up the account without SSL. I press yes.
Then I get the message "the POP server "mail.aapt.net.au" is not responding. Check your network connection & that you entered the correct information in the incoming mail server. (I ahve already checked this with aapt & it is correct. -
This started with Firefox 20 and still persists with Firefox 21. It never happened before. Everything is up to date. However, the PDFs don't display. Sometimes I can see the progress bar showing a load and sometimes it's just the normal PDF program background, but regardless, it is not displaying. What's happening with this?
By the way, I end up having to go to Chrome to view the PDF since I cannot get them to work in Firefox.Firefox 19 introduced an integrated PDF viewer. Unfortunately, it can't handle all of the formats and features supported by the Adobe plugin (yet). To switch, check out this article: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]]. Does that solve it?

Hello
Tried to update to IOS8 last night, backed up Ipad and downloaded IOS8.
It failed to update properly and ONLY gives me the option to restore the Ipad, it won't turn on I have to plug it into Itunes.
When I plug it in and go to restore it immediately prompts the following:
Then:
I click "Restore and Update"
I click next
I agree.
The download starts (weirdly its very slow) during the download I keep getting the first message. A few clicks and the box disappears and eventually the software is downloads (see below).
But it won't allow me to update / restore etc It cycles around these messages.
HELP - I have no idea what to do.
Many Thanks
MTI have much the same problem although my Ipad 2 says its in recovery mode. I have tried to restore and update repeatedly but nothing is happening.

Most of the games on my iPod classic 4g will not play anymore. I get a message that is of no help and when i synced the games they disappeared. What is going on and where have the games for iPods on iTunes gone ?
Apple removed the clickwheel games from the iTunes Store back in September.
Have you tried a hard reset of the iPod to see if that helps resolve the issue of not being able to play the games? To do this, first make sure the Hold Switch is in the OFF position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

I'm new to iPhoto, and I'm trying to figure out where sharing a photo to iTunes goes on the iPhone4 and/or Windows 8?
The Windows iTunes App section indicates something was shared and has an appropriate date and size, but the photo part says 0 photos, which makes it a little hard to delete.
Running the latest versions of iPhone, iPhoto, iTunes, and Windows.
ThxSharing to iTunes means the item is stored in the Individual app's file sharing area.
When your iPad is connected to your computer and selected look for the Apps tab. Select that then scroll down. First there will be a list of all your apps. Scroll down below that to find a list of your apps that support file sharing. Select iPhoto and you'll find the files you have shared to iTunes. Copy or drag them to your computer and move them where you want them. -
Can someone help me to be able to access the iBooks & iTunes sites now that I've updated ?
Try a reset, press and hold both the home and power buttons for 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own. Check apps.

It keeps telling me to see itunes support... but I can't find anything on the website related to my problem. I double checked my card information, but it isn't helping.
If you still have your old card listed on your account then try selecting the 'none' option and remove it and then try entering the card's details from scratch. If that doesn't work then what is the full error message that you are getting, and the card is registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing) that you have on your iTunes account ?

I have already purchasd and upgraded the Chest Workout App from free version to the Pro version. But there has nothing been upgraded and still unable to view the Pro version yet.
Purchased 2 years of service last year (desktop, not just for the iOS). Shortly after signing up and paying, my account was terminated stating there was no paymen. I was treated like a criminal, required to jump through a million hoops - then service as turned back on.
Few months later - service was terminated again, sighting I was spamming on the account. Nope, never spammed...and no bots or viruses spamming. Few days later they turned on the account.
Two week ago I contact support via chat. Representative was the most rude I've ever encountered, with insults to allogations. He terminated my account, stating 'there was a mistake' and I my account should not have been active. Now I'm being treated like a criminal and 2 weeks and nothing has been resolved. They appear to be unable to access the payment details to do the research.
For anyone considreing using Astrill services please keep the following in mind:
Service will be slow. You will find yourself having to constantly change servers.
Many websites (IE CraigsList) ban the Astrill IPs.
Many website force you through hoops... so extra captchas for instance for Google to search.
Support beyond the 'download latest version' and 'clear cache' is hard to get.
Expect the familiar off-shore support models we have grown to love and cherish over the years.
Keep your payment record at your fingertips because you never know when you'll be called upon to prove yourself over and over.
Though the VPN service is slow and clunky, it is the business practices and customer treatment that has me here writing to warn all of you to know what to expect before providing payment. I was 'ok' w/the service, it worked... but havea real problem w/how they treat everyone. -
I am trying to but something on the appstore but since i had forgotten the answers to my security questions i am not able to do so.
I have tried resetting the questions by using tutorials but it says there should be a reset option at the bottom but there isn't one, what do I do?Per the following, if there is no link to send a reset email then you need to contact Apple Support: If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions
