I need to rip a disk to my computer/playable. it is not commercial. please?

I need to save a disk to my computer and be able to burn it, send it to an ipod or smartphone and burn it at a later date? I switched from PC and am dealing with a little frustration. Seems that things are't as easy as I was told?? Hummm?

It IS easy - if you have the proper tools!
I use Roxio's Toast Titanium - it's not free, but if you are going to be doing a lot of work with ripping, editing and burning DVDs, it's a VERY valuable took that many of us here use.
You can also try Googling for other options; there are several.

  • I need a larger hard disk for my mac book pro

    Hi my mac Book pro 2.53GHz 13' needs a larger hard disk do you have any suggestion? I'm thinking about a 750/1T but which brand/model works great? I do music production.
    L

    For music production, you'll probably want a 7200RPM drive, and all the current 1TB units are 5200 or 5400RPM. Consider the 750GB 7200RPM Seagate:

  • Need for multiple ASM disk groups on a SAN with RAID5??

    Hello all,
    I've successfully installed clusterware, and ASM on a 5 node system. I'm trying to use asmca (11Gr2 on RHEL5)....to configure the disk groups.
    I have a SAN, which actually was previously used for a 10G ASM RAC setup...so, reusing the candidate volumes that ASM has found.
    I had noticed on the previous incarnation....that several disk groups had been created, for example:
    ASMCMD> ls
    DATADG/
    INDEXDG/
    LOGDG1/
    LOGDG2/
    LOGDG3/
    LOGDG4/
    RECOVERYDG/
    Now....this is all on a SAN....which basically has two pools of drives set up each in a RAID5 configuration. Pool 1 contains ASM volumes named ASM1 - ASM32. Each of these logical volumes is about 65 GB.
    Pool #2...has ASM33 - ASM48 volumes....each of which is about 16GB in size.
    I used ASM33 from pool#2...by itself to contain my cluster voting disk and OCR.
    My question is....with this type setup...would doing so many disk groups as listed above really do any good for performance? I was thinking with all of this on a SAN, which logical volumes on top of a couple sets of RAID5 disks...the divisions on the disk group level with external redundancy would do anything?
    I was thinking of starting with about half of the ASM1-ASM31 'disks'...to create one large DATADG disk group, which would house all of the database instances data, indexes....etc. I'd keep the remaining large candidate disks as needed for later growth.
    I was going to start with the pool of the smaller disks (except the 1 already dedicated to cluster needs) to basically serve as a decently sized RECOVERYDG...to house logs, flashback area...etc. It appears this pool is separate from pool #1...so, possibly some speed benefits there.
    But really...is there any need to separate the diskgroups, based on a SAN with two pools of RAID5 logical volumes?
    If so, can someone give me some ideas why...links on this info...etc.
    Thank you in advance,
    cayenne

    The best practice is to use 2 disk groups, one for data and the other for the flash/fast recovery area. There really is no need to have a disk group for each type of file, in fact the more disks in a disk group (to a point I've seen) the better for performance and space management. However, there are times when multiple disk groups are appropriate (not saying this is one of them only FYI), such as backup/recovery and life cycle management. Typically you will still get benefit from double stripping, i.e. having a SAN with RAID groups presenting multiple LUNs to ASM, and then having ASM use those LUNs in disk groups. I saw this in my own testing. Start off with a minimum of 4 LUNs per disk group, and add in pairs as this will provide optimal performance (at least it did in my testing). You should also have a set of standard LUN sizes to present to ASM so things are consistent across your enterprise, the sizing is typically done based on your database size. For example:
    300GB LUN: database > 10TB
    150GB LUN: database 1TB to 10 TB
    50GB LUN: database < 1TB
    As databases grow beyond the threshold the larger LUNs are swapped in and the previous ones are swapped out. With thin provisioning it is a little different since you only need to resize the ASM LUNs. I'd also recommend having at least 2 of each standard sized LUNs ready to go in case you need space in an emergency. Even with capacity management you never know when something just consumes space too quickly.
    ASM is all about space savings, performance, and management :-).
    Hope this helps.

  • My start up disk Macintosh HD is full on my McAir OSX 10.9.4 memory 4GB. I need to clear the disk so that I can update it with the new software IOS 10.9.5 requiring 2.05GB. Need guidance on how to clear space.

    My start up disk Macintosh HD is full on my McAir OSX 10.9.4 memory 4GB. I need to clear the disk so that I can update it with the new software IOS 10.9.5 requiring 2.05GB. Need guidance on how to clear space.

    For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the Storage display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
    Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
              iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
    Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
    According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation—not the mythical 10%, 15%, or any other percentage. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
    You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
    Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
    Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
    ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
    Install the app you downloaded in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    sudo /Applications/GrandPerspective.app/Contents/MacOS/GrandPerspective
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Ignore any other messages that appear in the Terminal window.
    The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
    When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.

  • Worried about need to constantly repair disk permissions

    Here is my analysis and conclusions as to why I need to constantly repair disk permissions:
    I recently got the top-o'-the-line iMac (see info below) which shipped with Lion but since I wanted Snow Leopard (just because I have a few PowerPC games that I can't live  without) I reformatted the hard drive - into 1 partition from the 2 that Lion had - and installed Snow Leopard and went back to business as usual....only with one **** great and fast computer. BTW, as far as I know this computer is exactly the same computer that shipped with Snow Leopard prior to Lion's introduction. I swore that I would never get another desktop computer because this one would last me forever. My only hesitation now is because the need to constantly repair permissions means something is not right. On the one hand I could just keep on repairing (daily?) the permissions for the next 20 years, or.... what? Is it possible (or should I be asking Apple itself instead of in this forum) that there is some other difference between the Snow Leopard and the Lion versions of  this iMac - is this what "firmware" is all about? - that produces this constant need to repair permissions? If that's the case, would Apple give me a Snow Leopard-friendly logic board (and/or install the correct firmware) in exchange for the Lion logic board - or am I just going to have to live with having to perform this permissions-update function? Or is having to repair disk permissions not a big deal or something worrying about? Any ideas would be appreciated - thanks!

  • Need to get disk out of computer

    Hi all,
    Well my old intel 17" iMac is not working. I was having a slow down etc. and I decided to run DW 4.1.1 it came back with a slew of repairs but noted a disk problem and would not replace directory. I restarted to try another routine, but computer will not get beyond grey spinning wheel. It just quits. Is there a way to eject disk? I've tried holding eject key etc. I reset pram, sms etc. I want to run apple hardware disk but I need to get DW disk out.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    John
    BTW, only last week I did a complete erase and install from my MBP, using migration assistant. I'm not sure if it's related.

    From the information I've gathered here over the years, it's been mentioned quite often that Macs ship with machine specific install disks, so if you installed your MBP's OS version onto to your iMac, it could possibly have something to do with the problems you're experiencing.
    I've always had a problem with the DW DVD not wanting to eject, so I solved the problem by installing it on my external bootable clone. When I want to run DW on my internal, I boot from the external, open DW, and run it from there. So, if you have a bootable clone, boot from it, use Disk Utility to repair permissions and repair disk and see if you can't eject DW. If that doesn't work, use Disk Utility to erase your internal hard drive and start over (install from original install disks) - somewhere during all that you will hopefully be able to eject the disk.

  • Move RAC database - need to format the disk storage having RAC and ASM

    Hello,
    Short story:
    I need to format the disk storage used by a two nodes RAC with ASM.
    How can I have the database working the new disk storage.
    Long story:
    We decided to change the external disk storage formatting from RAID 5 to RAID 10.
    Configuration is: 2 Solaris nodes having Oracle software installed on each node and running with ASM
    - node1: ORCL1 database and +ASM1 asm instances
    - node2: ORCL2 database and +ASM2 asm instances
    Available is a NFS storage with plenty of space.
    Please tell me which would be the easiest way to move the database?
    Thank you

    Thanks alot for your answer.
    1) There is more trouble: I also have the Voting disk and the OCR on the same (and only) SAN storage. Do you know about steps to backup/restore and/or recreate these?
    As I said I have a NFS file system available with plenty of space.
    2) I will need to backup the database, which way would you recommend: RMAN or EXP ?
