I've been trying to Share Burn DVD from the project area

In Final Cut Pro X, it is freezing about half way through the process. The process appears to be under way, but in the morning I still don't have a disc. I've updated final cut and restarted the computer with no change. Still freezing during the disc burning process.
Any ideas on how to solve my problem? Should I try sending it to compressor because I thought I would omit this step on this particular project because it is 3.74 GB in size, and a pretty straightforward simple project.
thanks for any help
Tracy

I am having the same problem, Tracy. In my case, it gets to 95% complete and then just sits there, forcing me to quit. It worked fine before upgrading to 10.0.5.

After last icloud backup, unrequested by me public holidays in the UK have been marked on the calendar and I can't find how to delete this. Also, I have been trying to delete a birthday from the same calendar for months and it keeps reappearing.

iPad 2 with iOS 7.01 After the last backup to Icloud, unrequested by me, my calendar has been filled with public holidays of the UK which there doesn't seem to be any way of deleting. Also, I have been trying to delete a birthday from the calendar for months, this time using all variations of 'delete' and it keeps popping up again!

Are you also restoring from your backup? That sounds like what is happening or someone else has your Apple ID.
A backup to iCloud would have no way to add UK holidays to your calendar. Open Calendar, tap on Calendars at the bottom middle of the page and untick the ones you don't want.

Trying to make a dvd from a project and this error message appears .The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (-2125)

Hi
Error -2125
OK Error code - 2125 usually indicates that the movie is to large.
It use to pop up when going to iDVD !
iDVD - DO NOT CARE ABOUT Gbs at all. I got movies on 500Mb that do not fit and 50Gb that fits nicely.
iDVD - ONLY CARES ABOUT - Duration. Duration is Movie time + MENU TIME. Choice of
menu and animation of this can take lost of "DURATION" 15 minutes or even more.
Choice of encoding method and use of SL or DL DVDs determine the DVD limit.
iDVD 08 & 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities.
iDVD 6 has the two last ones
• Professional Quality (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST
• Best Performances (movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD
• High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6) (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
DL DVDs can store about double of these times.
ALTERNATIVE - The Error Code can indicate that free space on Start-up (BOOT) hard disk is
less than 25Gb (my minimum)

If you are getting OSStatus error -2125, I've seen this caused by the computer display sleep settings.
Try changing the sleep settings to never and see if you are able to export.

I have been trying to create a movie from a project that is primarily stills and one video clip. I cannot successfully create the movie without iMovie shutting down unexpectedly. Any ideas for the cause of the problem?

I am getting an unexpected shut down of iMovie when I try to share a movie from a project that is made up of still pictures, one video clip and music. Have tried to create the movie several times with different formats and continue to get the message. When I removed all music I was able to create the movie without a problem but when I added the music back, I was unable to create the movie. I'm using iMoive 11' version 9.0.9
Thanks.
Bill

I'm no expert in iMovie, but I've found that processing memory (as well as sheer hard disk space for the project to 'turn around in') can be a big issue with constructing, editing, and distilling projects in iMovie. I've improved the success by moving 2gb of image files off to an external drive, but only really got moving again on an hour-long project by doubling RAM and again freeing up h/d space.
Some tunes are also an issue, but if you can see it in the iTunes list to place in your project, it should work okay... Does the project run with any other piece of music, or does just that one tune mess it up?
Good luck,
Laura

Can't burn DVDs and the CDs are getting spotty ...

I have been reading some threads about the DVD burning troubles and it all seems over my head.
What's happening is that the DVD burn process goes absolutely fine until the very end when it claims that it has lost contact with the devide blah blah blah. The same error code that apparently evenyone else gets. (I can't find the peice of paper i wrote it down on, and i'm not gonna destry another DVD-R trying it out jus to get the code!!)
I downloaded the BURN freeware program and it got the same thing as well. I tried rebooting but htis has been going on a long time, through many restarts. ALSO now when I burn CDs I am getting the same code maybe 1/2 the time.
I would try "going into admin mode and creating another user" blah blah but I don't know how to do this. I would try to re-install the driver for this DVD player but I have not idea how to do that, either. I feel very out of my league now.
I do have apple care, but they'll want my computer and I have to insure that all my data is safe before it goes and I can't back up without the DVD drive and I don't have an external harddrive.
help? please? maybe some more idiot friendly instructions for some of the things that I can try: I've already verified and repaired the permissions.

You can probably buy an external Firewire DVD burner that supports Mac OS X booting from http://www.macsales.com/ for less than it costs to repair your existing one out of warranty. Also backing up is very easy with Superduper and an external hard drive. See my FAQ*:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
If you are the only user on your system, you are likely already an admin user. If you aren't, ask the person who manages the machine to make you one via Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Accounts, selecting the user and changing the preferences on it.

Dynamic Link (Adobe Premiere Pro to Encore) issues with burning a DVD from the project file

Hello,
I am running Adobe Suite CS 5.1 on my Mac:
2.8 GHz Quad Core
6GB Memory
I've been having issues with a few projects; using Dynamic Link, directly from my project in Premier, to send them to Encore:
When attempting to burn a DVD, Encore will 'hang up' and not burn; I rarely burn to DVD, usually I'm always encoding for web, and just always use the 'default settings' in Encore.
A few things to note:
*In my project I'm using MOV files, from a Canon 7D, and MP4 files, from a Sony EX-1.
*I am working off of 3 separate hard drives; very large projects with over 5TBs of media files.
*I noticed that after inserting a DVD, it caused one of my hard drives to eject; this happened once, as far as I know.
*This only happens when I use Dynamic Link to send to Encore, via my Premiere Pro project file.
*My Project settings are always: XDCam HD-1080p/24p
Please help.
Thanks

So you must downrez at some point in the workflow. Some users have problems and/or think they get better quality out of direct PR/AME exports than using DL for this purpose.
I would test the workflow by creating three short test sequences - one with a clip from one camera, a second from the other, and a third with both in a sequence using the same settings you are using in your edit. I would use the "drag a clip" to the new item method for making each of the first two sequences. By short I mean 30 seconds to 2 minutes with a mixture of still and action.
Export using whatever method you pick of those recommended, but use CBR 8 instead of VBR etc. Bring the resulting files into Encore. Yes, look at the files exported on the computer, and look at Encore preview, etc, but also burn to a disk and watch on multiple TVs. There are lots of issues in best quality.

Burn dvd from existing project

How do I reburn an existing peoject that shoes on the time line. When I try to use dvd it says there is an error creating disc image?

If your DVD won't burn, it probably means you have some corrupt or incompatible footage in the timeline somewhere. Check the format of your clips carefully and make sure they are correct for FCP X.

I am trying to burn DVDs from iPhoto slideshows. My pictures number in the hundreds and we know that iPhoto captures 99 and then "starts over". This plays fine from the Mac Book but glitches arise on the DVD when playing it on a DVD player. Any suggestions on how to overcome the 99 "Chapter limitation" that IPhoto has? Has anyone heard or tried an app called Vilisoft? I read good things but I am not sure if it will do what I want.
Jim

Then use multipel 99 picture slideshows.
You can have up to 8 or 9 slideshows per menu. If you add a sub menu reduce that by 1 and add 8 more to the sub menu. The top menu can have links to up to 8 or so submenus (depends on the theme) and each submenu can have up to 8 or so slideshows.
However, converting a very large slideshow to a QT movie as Terence suggested does not envoke the 99 slide limit in iDVD. It just becomes a single video/movie file. So you should not have a problem with exporting at the large size, 720 x 540,
and dragging the resulting file into the iDVD menu being sure to avoid any drop zones.

hi,
somewhere on the windows machineshould be something like "network setup wizard". exactly where it is and what it is called i cannot remember off the top of my head, windows help is actually slightly useful here, it should have a link to it.
all the options checked on the mac are only what services the mac is offering to other machines, they have nothing to do with the services it can access (mostly...).
oh yeah, to actually connect to the pc after you have turned its sharing on, use the finder, or, when it does not show the pc (this happens on and off, possibly a refresh problem apple...) choose go --> connect to server and enter smb://<pc's name or ip>
to find the ip, the easiest way i think is
start --> run --> cmd ->> ipconfig

I can no longer burn DVDs since the upgrade - help!

Ok, new problem for me with my iMac and Lion.
I did the upgrade, and all weekend I've been trying to get some DVD's to burn to backup my photo library.
The seem to burn ok, but fail on the Verify step and the message indicates (roughly) "verify failed, disc may be unstable"
It ejects, and I can't put it back in and do anything with it.
These are DVD +R...they were working before the upgrade.
How can I troubleshoot this?

I habe the same problem and cant find a helpful post on the web!
How can i get it back to work???

M30x MultiDrive will not burn DVDs from Windows Movie Maker

Hi,
My M30x MultiDrive will not burn DVDs from Windows Movie Maker and other applications.
I have also had problems burning CDs (unbranded) from Windows XP, built in utility.
Does the multidrive have problems, with cheaper brand disks?
Just to note,
The laptop has been back to the support guys three times so far with various issues.
(1) The hard drive failed.
(2) The multidrive failed.
(3) The motherboard got replaced, because of power failures, it wouldnt charge the battery or recognise that the power adapter was plugged in.
Note: The harddisk, not the exhaust fan makes the most noise in mine!
Thanks

Hi
As far as I know the preinstalled burning software (i.e. record now, drag ndrop) disabled the Windows XP burning option. In this case if you want to use the Movie Maker or Windows media player burning option, you should to enable this possibility.
Please go to driver properties (right click). Please select the Recording tab. The option Enable CD recording on this drive should be marked.
I use the Nero burning software and in my opinion its a one of the best burning programs. Furthermore you should try different CD/DVD manufacturers because some CDs and DVDs are not compatible with some drives. Check the TDK CDs and DVDs. I never had any problems with these medias.
Best regards

What are you getting on the projector? Does it say 'no input detected'? Are you getting the spiral galaxy wallpaper?

I bought a used PowerMacPC G5. I can burn and read DVDs, but I can't read or burn CDs. The CDs are not even recognized. After the drive searches for a while, the CD is ejected without any error messages. The CDs work okay on my iMac.

I bought a used PowerMacPC G5. I can burn and read DVDs, but I can't read or burn CDs. The CDs are not even recognized. After the drive searches for a while, the CD is ejected without any error messages. The CDs work okay on my iMac.
I am running Mac OSX 10.4.11. According to the System profiler the CD/DVD drive is a "PioneerDVD-RWDVR-112D." When I compare the information under this heading, the only unusual difference from my iMac is that the G5 reads "Burn Support: Yes (Unsupported)." My iMac reads "Burn Support: Yes (Apple Shipping Drive)."
Under the System Preferences the options are set to "Ask what to do" when a blank CD or DVD is inserted. Music CD set to open iTunes, Picture CD set to open iPhoto, Video DVD set to open DVD player.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks, Jack

Been given a 3.25" DVD from a camcorder. Will my iMac read it? Don't want to damage it.

Been given a 3.25" DVD from a camcorder. Will my iMac read it? Don't want to damage it.

No. Those mini-DVDs cannot be used on a Mac and may damage your Superdrive.
You need to connect the camcorder to the Mac and set the camcorder to playback to transfer the video file to your hard drive.
