IDVD 6 - can't acess photos or movies from my library after software update

Any Way of turning back the clock?
i purchased the iLife '06 package and since Apple brought out their new version i can't use it.
when opening a new product with an old theme and click on "MEDIA" button and then" Photos" it gives a message 'Open iPhoto 2 or later or Aperture 1.5 or later to see photos from your iPhoto Aperture library list.'
Grrrrrrrr!

The software updates since i last used iDVD '06 (about 3 months ago) were the the updates prompted automatically from the apple website triggered by the system preferences.
The iDVD '06 software has been remained on this computer since i bought it in '06 and has been used successfully before.
This is a recent problem and i've recently tried a maintenance program (ONYX) which did'nt cure it and then tried installing MAC OS X and bundled software from the original discs(Which archived and restored my files and desktop exactly as they were as far as i could tell?) followed by software updates.
This has resulted in a minor change - in the "select a media source options" The audio still comes up as normal showing my itunes library,The PHOTO button still gives the greyed out message "Open iPhoto 2 or later or Aperture 1.5 or later to see photos from your iPhoto Aperture library list."
but when i click on the MOVIES option i get a spinning beachball which makes the APP hang untill i quit it.
Any thoughts?

    Hello, eco1. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    This sounds like you are wanting to move your iTunes media folder to an external drive and have iTunes this folder from this location.  If this is the case then I would recommend taking a look at the article below.

  • Can't open iphoto library after software update

    Hello, I recently updated to iPhoto 2.0.1 and now can't open my photo library. Here's the error msg i receive when i open the app: "You can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto. You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iphoto."
    I only have 1 version of iphoto on my hd.
    Thanks!!

    I only assumed the trouble stemmed from an auto software update. But when you say "a photo CD recently acquired" do you mean any CD with photos on it? I get a few of those a week in my line of work and have never had a problem before. Could a CD of images have corrupted my application?
    Also, I just got a new HD onto which all of my data was transferred, could this have precipitated the problem?
    This indeed is the something I was not telling you.
    Do let me know Brie Fly.
    Thank you.

  • Cant watch rented movies on apple tv after software update

    I recentlly bought apple tv and have not had a problem using it but this afternoon I went to rent a movie as per usual but had to instal a software update first, now i can't watch / rent / download movies.It asks me to confirm my credit card pin number then it just returns to the previous screen. I have tried verifying the credit card, resetting apple tv, turning on and off the modem, restarting apple tv, de registering other devices and it still doesnt work. Anyone know if there is a solution?

    I have exactly the same behavior.
    One small wrinkle, after re-entering CC details I couldn't even watch purchased TV shows. Then I reset the ATV and after it will allow me to watch TV shows we have bought but I still cannot purchase anything. There is no error message of any kind, it just goes back to the previous screen.
    BTW apple, we use my wife's login for ATV

  • How can i retrieve my old email and contacts lists after software update?

    After updating the sfotware on my 3gs phone, i have lost all my contacts, calendar appointments, e-mails, etc. Is there any way to retrieve them?

    Contacts and calendars are designed to be synced with a supported application on the computer or a cloud service like iCloud, Google, or Exchange.
    Has the device been used as designed?  If so, simply re-sync them.
    Did you actually allow the device to finish restoring after installing the update?

    Can anyone advise me if it is possible to retrieve my messages from my phone after software update?
    I have tried 'some' recovery software but they do not recognise the 'phone' as a part of my pc.
    Has anyone had similar issues?

    If you didn't make a backup before updating, all data is lost.

    how can I get an itunes movie from macbook to apple tv via airplay?

    You don't use Airplay.  You set up Home Sharing on both and under the Computers section of AppleTV you'll then find it under Movies (or Rentals if rented), assuming it's in a compatible format.

  • How can I import an m4v movie from my desktop to my event Library in iMovie?

    How can I import an m4v movie from my desktop to my event Library in iMovie?  I want to include the m4v movie into another project in iMovie.

    When you import DV Stream from tape, iMovie 11 will assume that you are importing raw footage from a camera, rather than a finished movie. It will create a new clip everytime it detects a scene break (the record start/stop button was pressed). These clips will be placed in chronolgical order - not the order they were on the tape.
    One way around this is to import the tape into the application that you used to create it. For example, if you used iMovie 6, import the tape back into imovie 6. In iMovie 6, you can export the tape back out using FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME. Choose the DV codec in an MOV container.  You can then import this MOV file into iMovie 11 and have everything in the proper order for your finished movie.
    Another option is to use FInal Cut Pro X.

  • How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance

    How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance downloading it again, especially because (believe it or not) I added it to my phone because that's precisely where I wanted it!! Any help much appreciated

    FYI I had to put this link into firefox to reply - because **** back safari just wouldn't register my clicks to any of the links on the post... Despite reloadeing and even restarting my computer. Totally annoying and a massive pain in the ***.
    But in terms of my initial query; thanks for responding. But no, this is NOT the cause of the problem. I have auto sync and sync over wifi activated, but have also selected manually manage music and videos. Plus, all of my music and videos are on my macbook, absolutely all of it, so if it my phone was syncing with my macbook everything would still be on the phone. Life would be peachy if my phone jsut copied everything that was on my macbook, but unfortuantely it keeps deleting tracks for no apparent reason.
    Any thoughts greatly welcomed, because at the moment i can only conclude that my iphone is crap.

  • Can I watch a rented movie from iTunes on my iPhone while on a plane?

    Can I watch a rented movie from iTunes on my iPhone while on a plane?

    I read that I may need to start the movie prior to departure so that it can connect via wifi (or whatever internet connection I use) and start the 24-hr "timer" for rented movies.  So,.. no truth to that?  More specifically, I can start a rented movie on iTunes, while on a plane, without an internet connection?
