It means your file is too large to fit on a single layer disk.
Recompress to keep the overall size (audio,video and menus) below 4.5GB

Message bar keeps telling me that Firefox would not allow a page to reload. What does this mean?

For a few days now when I go to certain sites I get this message at the top of the page "firefox will not allow this page to reload." Then there is a button that says "allow" or an X. Regardless of which I do, it keeps coming back.

Start by using this to make sure your assets really fit on the disk:

Trying to burn data on a CD-R disk, but then I get a window that says, "Burning failed" , and that one of the volumes on the disc is still in use", so what does this mean? Not sure what they mean by volume still in use, this apparentely is keeping me from burning info such a pictures and or video's, how can I fix this?

You have a disc inside your optical drive.

Remove the extra disc.
My answers are basic because:
You never told us which model iMac you have?
How you are burning? Through iMac? External burner?
Which OS you are currently using?

DSPPublishing error -29. what does this mean... I'm trying to burn to DVD

DSPPublishing error -29. what does this mean... I'm trying to burn to DVD

It means – more or less – that the job action (burning the disk) failed.
Sometimes this happens because the app doesn't like something about a background image that is to be used in the menu. If you have such an image, reduce its dimensions. If you don't have one, in Settings in the dialog, cick Add and then Cancel.Some people have found that that alone is enough to kickstart the job action.

Burning playlists from my iTunes to CD doesn't work anymore. Keep getting a "medium write error" message. What does this mean?

I'm trying to burn playlists onto a cd from itunes. I keep getting a "medium write error" message. What does this mean? I heard that this may mean that I should try burning at a slower speed. I tried this and that didn't help. I also heard that I may need to use a different brand of CD-R disc. I have not tried this yet. I also heard that it could be a software issue or disc drive issue. I recently updated my macbook pro software from tiger to snow leapord. Do you think this could have affected my itunes playlist burning capabilities? Thanks for the help.

A system upgrade should not have affected anything. When did you notice the loss in functionality?

Realize that a MBP that came with Tiger is an old computer and optical drives do not last forever.
You could try a drive cleaning disc to remove dust. Don't be overly optimistic. I suspect it is an old drive issue.

What does this mean and how do I fix it: "The following warnings and errors were found during the validation of the current project: - There appears to be a broken asset in your project. Correct this problem before burning this project."

It means that iDVD has found a problem with one of the movies added to the project. Did you edit the movie after it had been added to the project.
Create a new project and add your assets, movies, slides, etc. again and follow this workflow to help ensure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

I tried to register my stolen iPhone onto My Profile but it says that it's registered under another apple ID (which is not mine) What does this mean? Does it mean the person who stole my phone is using my phone under another Apple ID?!

Hi everyone,
My iphone and Ipad got stollen yesterday...
I registered my Ipad onto "my profile" but when I tried to register my Iphone 4 onto "My Profile" it says that the product has been registered under ANOTHER apple ID. What does this mean?! Does this mean that the thief is using my phone under a new apple ID?!
I am getitng abit paranoid because when I tried to download a new app onto my macbook pro, it says that someone had accessed my account from a new computer. I am so scared.. as I know that if they are able to access my apple ID account they can see my billing/card details. I tried to delete my billing address and card details on my apple ID account to prevent this from occuring but I can't. Please help
Many thanks,
Kim

You should change your AppleID password NOW. And if it says it was registered under another AppleID, the thief has probably done it.

HT1751 On an old Mac I got this message while trying to burn a CD for the car: "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The burn failed because of a medium write error." What does this mean? And how do I work around it?

On an older Mac I got this message while trying to burn a CD for the car: "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The burn failed because of a medium write error." What does this mean? And how do I work around it?

I had been getting this all morning and checked other messages from the community. THe one which worked was trying a different brand of disc.
I had been using Verbatim which had copied the music fine off the Real Player on my PC at school, but wouldn't work with I Tunes. Tried a Staples and an Office Depot CD-R , both of which did the job.

The battery icon on my (old) MacBook Pro turned red. Then black. What does this mean?

The battery icon on my (old) MacBook Pro turned red for a few moments, then black. What does this mean?

penny41,
Thanks, glad it helped you to check your battery status.
Something else to look at would be the cycle count, as you mention that your computer is "ancient". If you have a high number of cycles, it may also be a sign that the battery is tired and possibly nearing it's life span, and may possibly need to be replaced soon. If you see that again you may try a SMC reset to see if that helps, but if it continues you may need a new battery at some point. The battery icon will usually say needs service, or something to that effect. For the later MBP's Apple claims a life span of up to 1000 cycles, of this also will be dependent on who the battery is used, on the older ones I'm not quite sure what the claims were, and I don't know how old "ancient" in your case actually means.
I provide this for your info, so that you understand what may possibly be occurring.
I wish you the best.
SMC reset:
Follow directions for what applies to your machine, a battery you can remove, or a battery you should not remove yourself.
