IDvd is not working in leopard

iDVD keeps loading and will not launch when I upgraded to Leopard. Any other issues like this?

Hi Nancy,
My iLife 08 did not contain the latest iDVD.
Here is the solution:
I had the same problem. iDVD worked under 10.4.10 but not after installing 10.5(Got the black screen instead of the theme).
Here is what worked for me:
1. Remove all file pertaining to iDVD. These include all the theme files in both the hard drive and user librarys, the iDVD preferences and the application.
2. Do a custom install of iDVD from the iLife 08 disk.
3. Do a Software UpDate and install the update to iDVD before running the just installed iDVD.
4. Now Boot iDVD and presto.
Good Luck.

IDVD is not working in Mavericks... what now?

I am very upset that iDVD is not working in Mavericks! I need the ability to burn DVDs for family who is unable to access the internet. Any patches or fixes available to make this software usable again? I am very disappointed that Apple would do this without warning users that previously purchased software would be incompatible with the new OS.

I am also having problems with iDVD under Mavericks. I have used iDVD for many years creating DVD's for family members and archiving our vacations. It worked great under Snow Leopard, Lion, and Mountain Lion, but now Mavericks is a different situation.
I have two basic problems, (1) after importing the video I want to use, I play it back to preview and a small band shows up at the top of the screen that is not in sync with the rest of the screen. And (2) when showing a slideshow using standard jpegs there are color issues on playback. Help, I need my iDVD back!

Photoshop 7 DOES NOT WORK with Leopard ( OS 10.5 )

If you are not prepared to upgrade your Photoshop 7, DO NOT UPGRADE TO LEOPARD.
Photoshop 7 and OS 10.5.x (Leopard) are not compatible. When Adobe released Photoshop 7 in 2001 as a Universal Binary for OS9 and OSX they had no idea that Apple would be switching to an Intel chip in 2006. As the release of Leopard is also the end of the Classic environment, this may be the reason Photoshop 7 does not work in Leopard.
As of the release of CS4, Photoshop 7 can no longer be used as a path to upgrade Photoshop. A full version has to be bought now. But Photoshop CS or later can still be used as an upgrade to Photoshop CS4.
It is recommended that Photoshop 7 owners still looking to save money on upgrades stay away from eBay, as, unfortunately, much of the software listed is pirated or misrepresented and you will still not be able to upgrade to CS4.

There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox

Widget: "screenshot plus", not working in leopard, etc...

widget: "screenshot plus", not working in leopard. another bug? kids digital camera opens iphoto but doesnt appear on desktop to eject w/out errors. another bug? if i havnt registered leopard yet, can i sell it, cuz i think i might not want it now.

These aren't bugs, they are 3rd party issues that are not Apple's responsibility. Whomever wrote the widget needs to update it for Leo. The camera manufacturer needs to update their hardware driver to be Leo compatible.
I'm sure someone will take Leo off you hands for a better price than elsewhere. It's a great OS.

TS1394 Software Update NOT WORKING (Snow Leopard)

Software Update NOT WORKING (Snow Leopard)
Hi, I am currently using Snow Leopard 10.6 on my iMac. I opened iTunes and was told there was an update available so I clicked the button to download it. This obviously opened up the 'download' screen with blue bar. The blue bar does not move and the message comes up that the download failed. I have tried troubleshooting, but the message I get is that I am not connected to the internet - which I am.
Please help.

Check your iTunes version, it's reporting v10.6.3 here on 10.6.8 and no updates required.
You should be able to download it from here

Adobe CS2 will not work in Leopard

Did you know *_Adobe CS2 will not work in Leopard?_* I found out the hard way that Leopard doesn't cost $129; It's $729, because CS2 will not work so you need to upgrade to CS3. This is straight from Adobe support (albeit in Manilla). I can find no documentation on either site that warns you not to upgrade to Leopard if you're running CS2. I am dead in the water until CS3 arrives. Nice move Apple and Adobe. I usually like to get kissed first.

I'm using Adobe Photohsop CS1 and it is working. There are a couple of little glitches, but nothing major. And whenever there is a major system upgrade you can ALWAYS figure there are some things that are going to break, which is why it is a good plan to install a new system on a new drive or second partition. AFAIK the things that don't work and will never work are Photoshop 7 and Elements 2.

Itunes, Iphoto, Imovie, Disc Utility, Idvd will not work

Can someone please advise.
Itunes, Iphoto Imovie, Idvd will not work. All of my related files are there ie, all my music and photos but the actual programmes will not open. I read about using the Disc Utility but that will not open either. When I try to download say Itunes or Iphoto and lick on the download safari opens on google?
Please does anyone know what is wrong?
Its a PowerPc G5.
Cheers Mary

Our powerbooks can not run iMovie'08. Not enough horsepower.
That is why we are offered a free download of iMovie '06.

FCP not working with Leopard

Every time I try and launch FCP5 Studio 2 it gives me the "This application Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly." Anyone have a solution to this? Anyone else experienced this?
Do I just have to wait for an update?

Having same problem with FCP v 6.0.1 and tried the FCP Rescue 6..... Also does not work with Leopard.
I am just about to try this proceedure.
Delete the User Preferences
You can resolve many issues by restoring Final Cut Pro back to its original settings. This will not impact your project files, but you should verify your Scratch Disk location setting after doing this. To reset your Final Cut Pro user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Preferences—the tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
Remove the “com.apple.finalcutpro.plist” file from the Preferences folder.
Remove the “Final Cut Pro User Data” folder from the Preferences folder.
Will report shortly.

I have OSX 10.7.5, my idvd is not working correctly. Should I re-download this version again , do you think that it will help to improve the idvd operation?

I have OSX 10.7.5 on my imac, my idvd is not working correctly. Should I re-download this version again , do you think that it will help to improve the idvd operation?

First, iDVD is not and never has been part of OS X. If iDVD is not working correctly, then you should investigate possible problems with that application, support files, preferences, or cache.
Of course you can always reinstall OS X if you wish:
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

IDVD is not working...We did everything described

Why doesn't apple do Apple do something about it? We did everything described here. I bought my laptop with Leopard and DVD is not working since I bought it. We tried every thing described it was all to no avail. What can we do?

Came back to leave at least hope if not a fix for everyone....after going through every fix listed here and web wide etc., I finally trashed the entire app from the applications, then reloaded just the IDVD app using the two original ship discs (not the update of leopard disc) selecting customize and selecting just iDVD & extra iDVD features, to save time.
Before you go to the trouble of doing this remember you must clear all the other elements already listed elsewhere (easy to find in support here) so you have no holdovers from the previous install. After you load the iDVD app from disc 1 & 2, next update the software and at least in my case the %&^-thing finally worked...actually a really nice program.

IDVD doesn't work with Leopard

Hi, I recently installed Leopard and have had no problems with it until I tried to use iDVD today and found that the themes will not load. Does an upgrade to iLife 08 solve this problem?
I previously had no problems using iDVD. Below are the specs from my computer.

Hi
Yes iDVD 5 doesn't work with Leopard.
Installing iLife08 will install iDVD 08 which works BUT NOW iMovie'08 will not work
though it needs a G5 1.9GHz minimum. So You need to download iMovie HD 6 (6.0.4)
which You are entitled to as an iLife08 owner.

My iMovie & iDVD does not work properly at all.

When I try to share a movie in iMovie, it says "Unable to prepare project for publishing". As well as "The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (Error in user parameter list)". Also, it wont import any videos no matter what the format is. I have uninstalled the program & re-installed it but nothing seems to work.
iDVD does not let me create a project and edit it. It also does not let me create a DVD.
I have an '07 Macbook w/ Snow Leopard operating system and I have run out of ideas as to why these 2 programs are not working for me.
Please help!!!

First try Resetting it: Hold down the home and sleep button, ignore the red OFF slider, wait for the Apple logo then let go.
If that does not work, Restore your iPhone in iTunes from your backup.
If that still does not fix it, Restore your iPhone and a new phone (not from backup) and see how it works. If it is doing fine you have a app you are using that is probably causing your problem. Load them one and a time until the problems recur and you will have found the one that is a problem.

IDVD 5 not working on my IMAC G4

Hi everyone:
I have an Imac G4, running osx 10.5.8, Idvd is updated to 5.0.1 and will not operate.
Do I need to back date?
What do I need to do?
Thanks,
Paul

Hi
You need to either
• Get iLife 6 or more - or -
• Go back to Mac OS X.4.11
• Program miss-match. iDVD 5.0.2, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK - DON’T work under Leopard
• Program miss-match. iDVD 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
• Program miss-match. iDVD’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK will work under Leopard)
• Program miss-match. iDVD’09 v. 7.0.4, Mac OS X.5.8 AND QuickTime 7.6.4 - is OK (does work under Leopard)

Treo 700WX DUN: Does NOT work in Leopard! Anyone have luck?

I have a Treo 700WX with Sprint. I can't connect with Bluetooth or USB. When I used Tiger I was able to make it work just fine.
Now with Leopard...It does NOT work. The modem disconnects during connection. I just can't get online plain and simple.
At first I was blaming my Treo. But I tested it out on my Vista Partition and it worked! So the problem lies within Leopard.
Apple did a lowsy job on the Networking features in Leopard thus far.
*Has anyone gotten Leopard to use DUN (Dialup Networking) with a cellular Device?*
Again I'm using a Treo 700 WX (Windows Mobile 5) with the 1.15 software installed. I've also tried to install USB Modem (by Mobile-Stream) which enables USB connectivity. It still does not work. Same errors.
I was camping in the middle of nowhere for 5 WHOLE DAYS with no Internet!!!!!!! hehe jk I was actually happy about that. Excuse not to work! :P But there may be a day when I need DUN.
I don't have the "Phone as Modem" through Sprint. However you don't need it on your plan for this phone.

MikeyPD,
Sprint DUN is working just dandy for me, but I am using phone-as-modem, and with an A900M, not a Treo. You probably know more about the differences than I, but I would expect they both use the same protocols to connect (on both ends).
For me, it was a snap to set things up in Leopard. Actually easier than Tiger. Do you use a standard DUN connection, or must you use some other method for the Treo, running Windows Mobile?
Assuming it is standard DUN, let's go through the steps. First, is there any indication that the Treo is recognizing the connection as a request for DUN service (for example, my A900M clearly states that it is being used as a Data Modem)? Do you have the modem script set to dial #777? OK, here's the "Duh!!!" question: Do you have the modem script set to ignore the dial tone? If you do not have it set to "ignore," it will immediately fail every time.
