I need to burn a .dmg to an external disk

Hi i need help to "burn" a .dmg file into an external disk partition so every time I conect it it open as if conect a disk with a dmg image burnt to it

Use Disk Utility to restore the dmg file to the partition. The partition already opens as a disk. If this isn't what you're wanting, be more explicit, especially what's on the dmg file.

Burn a .dmg file on a pc, have it bootable on my g3

I recently purchased OS X Tiger. I backed up the CDs on my PC, now is there anyway i can burn the .dmg files to a disk and make them bootable on my Mac G3?
Thanks
Jeff

I guess that means they are not going to work as copies of the installer CDs.
Do you have the facility to make the copies on a Mac? That would be your best bet. You can make copies on a Mac as follows:
Duplicate a CD or DVD
1. Insert the DVD/CD;
2. Open Disk Utility, and select the DVD/CD from the left side list (select the DVD/CD icon on top);
3. from the DU File menu select New | Disk Image from Disk 1;
4. Choose to format the disk image as DVD/CD Master, name the disk image and click Save;
5. When the .cdr file is finished select it with mouse and press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info and check the box to lock the file;
6. Choose the .cdr file from the left side list, click Burn, and insert a new, blank DVD or CD.

I don't have idvd but i need to burn my movie from iMovie! what do i do? i have dvds but every time i try to use one, the sound is off and it doesn't work on quick time or adobe... help!!

i have made a movie in imovie on my macbook pro, but apparently i don't have idvd!!!

ive already tried simply exporting it to Quick Time, and burned it to a dvd, but when i watched it... the sound was wrong and people's words were like muted...
what do i do?!?! i don't know where or how to get idvd!
help!!!

Hi
There are two structures of DVDs
• Data-DVD - as burned from DeskTop/Finder
• Video-DVD - to be played on a DVD-Player - Needs a program that can do this
One can in iMovie - Export as QuickTime .mov and save this via DeskTop/Finder onto a DVD - BUT this will only play on a Computer and if it is a Window-PC this needs to download QT-player or VLC-player.
But no DVD-player for TV can play back this.
To get a Video-DVD then You need
• iDVD (not from Apple any more) - or -
• DVD Studio Pro (not from Apple any more) - or -
• FinalCut Pro-X (can do simple Video-DVDs) - or -
• Burn - http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html - FREE - but very PLAIN - no fancy things at all.
• Roxio Toast™ 11 Pro - Fairly advanced - and costs a bit - still very Good and lot's of great tool's included. (I love it) - Can also back convert home made DVDs to an editable mode in an OK quality. With BD-component also capable to do sort of Blu-Ray DVDs.

I have Final cut Pro HD sequence and I need to burn this on a DVD

I have Final cut Pro HD sequence and I need to burn this on a DVD, my sequence lasts 1 hr and 33 minutes. What are my options? Is it better to export as a Quick Time movie or using the compressor? I'm new to the compressor just learning, please help.

Select your sequence in the browser window, go to the File menu and choose Export Using Compressor.
When compressor opens, choose the DVD best quality settings, 120 minutes.
For audio and video both, choose both the m2v video and the AC3 audio. (Dolby Professional)
Choose a destination for your files, and hit submit.
When it's finished, import these files into your DVD SP project, and make your DVD.
Be sure to choose the 16:9 anamorphic settings.

In FCX I need to burn a DVD that will be either a Region 0 or Region 2 per a festival requirement- what Region does FCX default burn to?

Hello! I need to burn DVDs from FCX that are going to London - they are asking that they be Region 0 or Region 2 - what is the default Region that FCX burns to so that I know I am burning it to the correct region? I need it to play when it gets there - this is a film festival submission - Thanks!

Region coding is largely a dead concept. Most better DVD players will play any region.

What app do I need to burn imovies to dvd

I have a new imac - no internal superdrive- I bought a stand alone. I need to burn imovies to dvd. Idvd no longer works with new imac, I purchased Toast - that does not work, I downloaded Free DVD creator - that does not work either. I have been following the procedures but the dvds can not be played on my tv dvd player.

Use Verbatim like babowa suggested and burn at the slowest speed available. That will give you the best qualtiy video DVD. If you find you want to create a video DVD with more style than what Toast provides consider using iDVD.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty 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, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is 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.

Desperately needs help burning DVD from iPhoto

I am using iPhoto 6.0.6. I desperately need help burning a DVD of a slide show that I created for my daughter's wedding.
I put several songs together by opening them and then combining them using QuickTime Pro. I imported the audio into iTunes and created a slide show using iPhoto. The slide show is perfect! The slides are finally in sink with the music just as I want them! But I don't know how to burn the slide show as a DVD.
I tried exporting the video from iPhoto to my computer, but at the end of the export, I get this message: please note that the music included in the slideshow can only be played on authorized machines. And when I try to play the video (after the export), most of the music on the video cannot be heard. When I try to authorize my machine, I am told that it's already authorized.
If someone would send detailed instructions on how to proceed, I would greatly appreciate it.
Greg

Is your problem the DRM audio tracks you purchased from iTunes store?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

I want to "burn" a .dmg (windows 7 file) to a bootable usb stick

I have a late 2008 Macbook Pro and the superdrive doesn't read or write any disks (a common problem with this type of syperdrive)
I want to install the dvd with Windows 7 on my Mac and of course i can't because of my superdrive problem.
I have converted the dvd to a .dmg file so that I can make a bootable usb stick.
But I can't "burn" the .dmg image to a usb. I've tried many ways to copy it but unsuccessful.
Can someone please help me?

Error message trying to burn InstallESD.dmg

I was trying to burn a backup copy of the Installesd.dmg to a dvd. Using disk utility to burn the file to the dvd, I received a message after the burning process and the ejection of the dvd:
"Unable to burn "InstallESD.dmg *(The disc didn't respong properly and can't recover or retry)
Is this a problem with my dvd burner? or another problem?
Thanks

Don't have a clue, but try this: mount the dmg file and then use Disk Utility to restore it to DVD. Better, restore it to a 10 GB empty partition. Using that results in significantly faster installs than using anything DVD or USB.

Do I need to keep the .dmg after installing an application ?

I drag the dmg to the application folder and do the install, do I need to keep the .dmg afterward? as i`m doubling up on files and filesize,

No, unless you're running the application straight off the dmg.

Need help burning a file of jpg images to a CD

I have a folder on my desktop with 17 jpg images ranging in size from 250 KB to 500 KB that I need to burn onto a CD (I've never burned a CD before). I inserted a blank CD into the slot on my MacBook Pro, waited for a file to pop up, named the file, then dragged the file to the CD icon in Finder. I scrolled to "Burn CD" and clicked on that. Took only a couple of minutes for the computer to tell me it was finished, so I ejected the CD. When I reinserted the CD, however, nothing happened. I expected a screen to pop up with the images I thought I had saved. Am I using the wrong kind of CD? The one I used is a Maxell CD-RMax with 80 min/700 MB storage. Thanks for any assistance.

Hi Elyartist,
Here are the suggested steps for burning the pictures onto a CD:
iPhoto '11: Create your own photo CDs and DVDs
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2436
This is the section that is most like what you are already doing (skip to step 6):
To create a CD or DVD to be viewed in Windows or by a photo-processing company:
In iPhoto, select the photos, albums, or video clips you want to burn to a disc.
Choose File > Export.
In the Export Photos window, click File Export, and then select your options.For best results, choose JPEG, Maximum, and Full Size. For more information, see Export a photo.
When you’re ready, click Export, and export the photos to a folder on your computer.
When the export is finished, quit iPhoto.
Click the Finder icon in the Dock, and then insert a CD-RW disc or a blank CD-R or DVD-R disc into your drive.
Drag the folder that contains your exported photos to the disc’s icon.
When the files have been copied, choose File > Burn Disc, and then click Burn.
The article contains some basic causes for this issue as well.
Cheers!

I can't find iDVD on my computer, and I need to burn a movie onto a disk. Help?

I can't find iDVD on my computer. I need to burn a movie onto a disk, and I need it quickly. Can someone help me? I've searched for iDVD in applications, but it's not there.

iDVD is no longer supported by Apple and does not come pre-loaded on new Macs.
If your computer did not come with iDVD and iWeb preinstalled, you can ask Apple for a free copy here:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/idvd.html
Alternatively, you can purchase a boxed version of iLife '11 from Apple, Amazone, etc. Boxed versions come with iDVD and iWeb still on the disk.

I need help burning a cd from keynote

I need help burning a cd from keynote for a slideshow presentation on a tv

Hi,
Not quite sure what you're after here, so I might need a bit more info.
You have a presentation in Keynote and want to export this in some format that will allow you to display it on a TV screen. Is this right? Do you want to retain all your interactivity or do you just want to show it as a simple 'kiosk' presentation? What will the presentation on CD be played from and how will it connect to the TV?
Probably the easiest solution is to create a DVD of your presentation. To do this export the presentation from Keynote as a Quicktime Movie by going to File>Export and selecting the Quicktime pane. You'll need to make a few choices about how the slides are advanced and the final quality. Convert the exported movie to a DVD in iDVD or better still Toast, if you have it. You wont need menus or any fancy stuff, just set up the movie to play as soon as the disk is inserted.
To optimise the Movie, keep Keynote animations to a minimum and limit slide transitions to simple dissolves. The resulting Movie should be a fair representation of the original Keynote presentation.
Alastair.
