IDVD will not go past Stage 4 when burning.

Hello.
I am currently having burning problems with iDVD. I have read many guides to burning and have followed many instructions normally given when others are experiencing problems.
iDVD ejects the disk once it gets in the midst of Stage 4. I get a pop-up saying.... "The recording device reported the media error: Power calibration area error. (0x73, 0x03.)"
Any advice?
Please.

hi Luno:
Welcome to discussions.
Power calibration error usually means either you have a burner problem or you have media that your burner doesn't like.
The latter is probably what it is. have you changed media lately?
May I suggest Verbatim DVD-R (not +R) 8x or less?
Sue.

    K9N4 SLI-F Posts But will not boot past F8 Menu; when Safe Mode pressed, will not make it through initial scroll (and last file changes). Does this have anything to do with windows and the three update mess???

    Yes, This is a New Build, though Windows XP is already on the Hard Drive From a Previous Build. I Had a K8N Neo Platinum Motherboard with ATHLON64 3400. MB caught the hiccups and I changed everything out. So My Hard Drives have to be reloaded but not wiped??
    Yes, that is necessary. Also leave only one HDD temporary where you planing to install your OS, when installation is done then attach your other HDD(s).
    "So My Hard Drives have to be reloaded but not wiped?"
    No need to be wiped, only Windows re-installation.

  • I have a Macbook and I left it unplugged. It started up slowly when I plugged it in again, but it seemed fine. Once it started charging I shut it down so it would be easier, but now it will not go past the grey screen with the apple. What do I do?

    I have Snow leopard on my computer, and I tried to do a hard restart as an article suggested, but it did not work. I also tried cleaning out the PRAM.
    The only things I did last night:
    -cleaned the history of Firefox out, including cookies
    -let it unplugged all night
    -plugged it back in the morning, it took a long time to figure itself out, but eventually the time was correct and I got on the internet for a bit
    -shutdown the computer since I was going out and thought it would help the computer charge
    -came back, tried to turn it on, and found that it would not go past the grey screen the apple on it and the spinning wheel even though I left it for 20 minutes or more
    -tried turning it off and on to no avail

    Before doing a reinstall, which may not be needed at this point,
    Try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk.
    You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Repair reports and if DU was able to repair them. This could just be a start in repairs and you may need a better utility to finish the job.
    Then Repair Permissions.
    No need to report any Permissions errors........we all get them.

    Hi there 8472kck!
    I have some information for you that can help you troubleshoot this issue a little further. That information can be found right here:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 15 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    and that information comes from this article:

  • Why IPHOTO album will not keep the template format when share to IDVD.

    Why IPHOTO album will not keep the template format when share to IDVD. Also, could be better if IPHOTO Album could access "inspector tool" with ability to change the slide duration time and apply a random "Transitions" to specific slide.

    Are you sharing an album of photos or a slideshow to iDVD?  If it's an album then what you get in iDVD is just a slideshow with the photos in it where you have to set the transition and slide timing unless you add music and select fit to audio.
    Don't know what you mean by the template format unless you're referring to the themes in a slideshow? If you share a slideshow the ss is converted to a Quicktime movie file and that is added to the iDVD menu window.  No changes are possible.

    Hi,
    My Iphone got wet and now when I turn it on it will not go past the apple logo.  Please help.

    Take it in for service or most likely out of warranty replacement. Water damage voids your warranty so you will need to pay towards the replacement.

  • My 4th Gen Ipod touch will not get past the apple logo

    My 4th Gen Ipod touch will not get past the apple logo (unless the battery is dead, Then it tell me to charge it).  Once it gave me the connect to itunes screen.  I clicked restore in itunes but the ipod went back to the apple logo before the update download finished. I tried calling apple but my over the phone technical support just expired. PLEASE HELP! 

    This can be a corrupted software/firmware on your iPod touch. If the recovery mode you did was not forced, then try to force it into recovery mode. This is how:
    1. Force it to shut down (note: this sort of shut down should not be preformed unless you are in a situation like this because it is a hardware shutdown and will not attempt to unload software, save unsaved files, safely stop system processes, etc.) to do this, hold down the power/sleep button and home button for about 7 or 10 secs. Also I might be incorrect but I heard that you can just hold down the sleep and home button until the screen goes blank and then immediately let go.
    2. Have iTunes running. Hold down the home button and plug the USB cable that came with your iPod into it. Keep on holding on the home button until a picture of a USB cable going into the iTunes logo appears. You are now in a forced recovery mode. (In case your not so tech-savvy forced recovery is the same as a normal recovery mode that an iPod might do if it knows an update or restore failed.)
    3. iTunes should have shown a pop-up message about it found a iPod in recovery mode. Click OK, click your iPod from the sidebar and click restore. The iPod will show the apple logo for a while and iTunes will say "preparing iPod for restore" and then "waiting for iPod" this was the longest part of updates for me.
    4. iPod will reboot when restore is completed. When I update my iPod it one time showed the apple logo for one whole sync until it showed the slide to unlock screen, so do not worry. P.S if that does not work do a DFU mode restore ( I've been told DFU mode stands for device firmware update mode) I'm running out of room, so google it. Hope this helped ;)

  • I updated my IOS on my iPhone 4S and it locked up.  I had to restore my phone and now iTunes will not go past the setup your phone screen even though the phone as been restored.  How do I get iTunes to go past this screen so I can sync my phone again?

    Depending on what iPhone you have when you get to the connect to wifi you should be able to activate your device over cellular data. Try doing a hard reset by holding the home circle button an power button until an apple pops up and the  go through the setup again and when you get to the wifi part a option should be setup with cellular data iPhone 4 and above should give this option sometimes doesn't like showing up that's why u have to do a hard reset first

  • IMac will not get past chime & white screen

    iMac will not get past chime & white screen. I have tried all the start up key combinations I can think of (d or c etc) with a start up disc, but no joy. The disc drives seems ok - you can hear it working & it will eject OK.
    Any other start up ideas, please?

    Have you tried a safe boot? If not, hears how (it's straight from Mac Help):
    To start up into Safe Mode (to "Safe Boot"), do this:
    Be sure the computer is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, press and hold the Shift key.
    Tip: The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone but not before.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple and progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    During the startup in Mac OS X 10.2 through 10.3.9, you will see "Safe Boot" on the Mac OS X startup screen.
    During the startup in Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login window, which appears even if you normally log in automatically.
    To leave Safe Mode in any version of Mac OS X, restart the computer normally, without holding any keys during startup.
    To learn more about Safe Boot check this page:

  • Ipod will not got past the home screen

    Help please!!!! When I turn my ipod on, (with a full charge and fresh restore and update) it will not go past the home screen (music, setting, ect). The hold button is off. The click wheel will move the selector up and down, but I can't go any further than that.

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose your "stuff" with Recovery Mode.
