IDVD won't take projects from FC

Hi I'm working with iDVD 7 but after upgrading to 7.0.4 it doesn't take any video format. I normally used to drag FCP movies and drope it into iDVD without any problems, but now it won't take any videos or whatsoever. I've tried to convert videos using quicktime conversion to some formats listed as acceptable formats for iDVD with no succes at all. In adition I tried to open previous projects buta mesage appears on the screen:
THE FOLLOWING FILES COULD NOT BE FOUND: Macintosh HD/library/Aplication Suport/iDVD/Themes/iDVD 7/Audio.
I'm really concerned about this problem so, any help will be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks in advance.
Juan.

THE FOLLOWING FILES COULD NOT BE FOUND: Macintosh HD/library/Aplication Suport/iDVD/Themes/iDVD 7/Audio.
Part of iDVD has gone missing. Reinstall the application from the iLife disc that came with your computer or from a retail copy if you have since upgraded it.

I have an extensive aperture library on my computer's hard drive and I want to break it up into separate smaller libraries on external hard drives. How do I take projects from one library and add them to another one?

Coastal,
Frank gave you the exact answer to your question.
However, I would like to ask if you are indeed asking the right question. Do you really want different libraries? The implications are that you have to "switch" libraries to see what's in the others, and so that your searches don't work across all of your pictures? If so, then you asked the right question. If not, you may be more interested in relocating your masters to multiple hard drives so your library gets smaller, instead of breaking up the library.

Mac won't take power from the mains

Hi,
I just bought my MacBook two days back. I'm already finding a few things crashing, but my main headache is that its currently refusing to take power from the mains. I take out the power chord and put it back in... nothing. I've tried restarting - no go. I've changed socket, no difference (the sockets are working fine). I noticed that the MagSafe Power Adaptor was pretty hot when I first spotted this problem. Any ideas?
Cheers,
Robin

Hi robin
All I can offer is to keep doing what you're doing that's kept it going up till now - whatever that is? As soon as you've got time take it back.
I find it slightly strange that you're prepared to risk 'some urgent work' using something that's clearly having a problem? However if it's all you have then I suppose you have no choice? If there's enough 'juice' to let you complete whatever it is you need to do and if you've a memory stick or can burn a CD/DVD then I would look at those options once you've done the work.
You never know?

New computer won't take songs from ipod, how to register new computer?

My hard drive crashed, I had to buy a new one. All my songs were on my old drive. Except for what is in my ipod. I bought a new hard drive, but haven't had the $$ to have files removed from old drive yet. Installed itunes onto new drive, plugged in Ipod and it says it will either replace all 400 songs from my pod with the 1 song in my new itunes, or it can only take itunes purchased songs from my pod, which is only about 5% of my songs on my pod at the moment. How do I register my new pod to my new harddrive??? Help!

Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. The transfer of content sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

SharePod Windows Only
iPodRip Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac and Windows
Music Rescue Mac & Windows
iPodCopy Mac and Windows
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
The transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

IDVD won't open projects

I was having some issues getting iDVD to start but I fixed that. Now after I select the project in the home menu, the project never opens. It just stops. I end up having to force quit iDVD and keep going through the same cycle. Any help would be great!

Did you repair permissions? Also .... :

IDVD won't burn project in current form!

I made a project - saved it- burned a test dvd. Then I went back in = made a lot of changes - saved. Closed IDVD. Reopened the saved project (it has a completely different name so its easy to find) - then I go to burn an image.
What happens is bizarre! It burns a DVD without ANY of my changes. I go back to IDVD - I preview the movie - there are all my changes. I burn a DVD - no changes present?????
What can I do?

You need to delete the encoded assets so the project will reencode everything.

IDVD Won't burn - project too big

Okay I've looked at other posts but I don't think my project is too long. The imovie is only 37:00. After exporting to iDVD it creates a Quick time .mov file. When trying to burn the dvd, the error msg. reads "7.4 gig file is too big for 4.2 gig disc " Should I be compressing somewhere?
G4 Dual 867 Mac OS X (10.4.2) 512 mg ram

welcome macplebe to the  boards ...
save your project in the "Movies" folder
launch iDVD
under media, choose your movie...
no export, no compression, no .mov ... needed...-
indeed, iDVD accepts projects of <120min...

Nw8440 won't take power from AC adapters or docking station

I think my nw8440 laptop got hurt by a defective AC power brick - it caused the 'charging' light to flutter rapidly and a small clicking sound was heard from the laptop. After that, the laptop will not run off of any external power input and will not charge the batteries (I have 2 other good AC bricks and a docking station, but now none work). The laptop does sense the presence of the DC input though; a minute or so after a brick is plugged in, an HP assistant pops-up appears from the taskbar and shows something like "The smart adapter does not have enough power for this computer". The laptop is obviously going to need repair, but is anyone familiar with the power components and able to advise on what I should expect? (e.g., do these have any replaceable power parts or is it likely that the motherboard is fried?)

I was having the same problem. Installed the older driver from the link and now it wakes up!

Running Prime Infrastructure in HA mode but the primary server won't take over from the secondary

We're running Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 in High Availability mode, or atleast we're supposed to.
At first everything seemed fine. We were using the primary server and the failover worked without a hitch when we tried it.
Then the problems started. I think it was at the same time as we increased the disk-size and therefore had to fail over.
When looking into the primary server using CLI everything seems fine but the service doesn't fail back to it. We've even tried to restart the secondary server in order to force the primary server to take over but it didn't work.
In about 2 weeks we need to upgrade Prime and while doing that we would prefer to have our HA working so that we can continue monitoring our network.

Hello,

Macbook won't take charge from the charger it came with. But WILL take a charge from older generation chargers.

My Macbook will only charge from an older model charger. The charger that came with the laptop, after the computer overheated dramatically, is suddenly not working. The weird thing is, the Apple store tried several chargers out just now, including a brand new one, and what we discovered is that the older model chargers work fine, but the newer model chargers (which used to work perfectly) are indeed recognized by the Macbook (there is a little plug/'charging' symbol in the top right) but there is also a message next to the symbol, in parenthesis, stating that the Macbook is "Not Charging". Any idea what this could mean? The Apple store said the computer passed all of their rigorous tests... but obviously something is wrong... so they gave me two options: they could either replace the Magsafe unit ($50), or they could send the computer to the "Depot" to have any parts that are malfunctioning changed at one flat fee ($280). What do I do? Because I don't want to pay $280 for a new Magsafe unit when I can get it for $50. But if this is a logic board problem, then obviously I should send it in to the Depot-- but what if they run more tests and decide the logic board is fine? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

my ginger,
I did the shift-control-option + power SMU reset. (My Macbook has an internal battery so I couldn't remove it.) Nothing changed as a result of that though.
I checked to see if the battery and adapter are being recognized. This is what it said (cut-and-pasted below). Let me know what you think.
I wonder if the wattage difference in the adapters is what is making the difference... And if so, what that might mean in terms of damage done. Hmmm.
Thanks again for your help. Much appreciated.

Lost Calendar in my PC, still on Blackberry but won't take it from the BB during sync

Can someone please help me out here. I use two PC's work and home and have hundreds of appointments scheduled for the rest of this year. They are gone from my PC but still in my BB. When I synch it acts like they don't exist in the BB. I have: uninstalled the device manager and then reinstalled it on my PC's. I have read through many posts here and can't find the same problem or a fix. I really depend on my calendars for scheduling. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi and welcome to the forums!
First immediately get a good backup of the Blackberry.
Go to calendar options and post (without using your real email address) the number and names of the calendars
you have listed. Also click on each and scroll to number of entries, post how many if any in each.
Thanks,
Bifocals

I have redeemed my itunes money and want to buy music -yet it keeps asking for a credit card. Won't take money from my account.

I have money in my account -yet when I try to buy music it keeps asking for a credit card. I saw that someone else had the same problem -yet no answer.

Yes, it's a bind isn't it. I'm also new, just trying to help my young son download free games, but the amount of personal data that has to be divulged for such a simple task was quite a surprise and somewhat overwhelming.
All to help him with his much wanted iPod which he got for Christmas. Thanks mum!

Premiere Won't Load Project

Premiere Won't Load Project from Splash screen. CS6
The splash screen finishes loading - I choose my project and the software hangs.

Thoughts? Thanks!

From the splash Screen instead of picking from the list on the splash screen I decided to choose OPEN and then choose the file and it seemed to work.

IDVD won't recognize imovie project

Hello people.
I have an 09 Mac desktop computer. I have now made seven iMovie projects ranging from ten minutes to almost two hours. Each time I shared the project with iDVD to burn the finished product to disc. Each time I made sure I could play back the movie on our DVD player.
I was able to play back each of these movies on my computer as the files ( I am assuming they were files ) were automatically stored in a movies folder right after they were shared with iDVD from iMovie. Since they take up space on the hard drive, I decided to store the files on an external hard drive. I believe each one copied to the hard drive. Once each one was on the hard drive, I made sure I could play it back. Then I trashed each file on the computer, again making sure right after that I could still play each file on the external drive. They would open in iDVD and I could play them. All was good.
Recently I made another iMovie project of my children's high school play. As I did before, I shared it with iDVD and it appeared to be working as usual. It was to take approx. 30 minutes to create the movie from the project. HERE IS MY FIRST PROBLEM! Usually after the movie is created, it then opens in iDVD and from here I can burn to disc. iDVD did not open! I tried a couple of times and nothing. I then tried a short 30 second clip from iMovie with no titles or transitions or anything. This worked. iDVD opened after creating the short movie. My project is an hour long. Consequently with this project I shared it with the media browser and made it into an avi file. I then used a program ( Toast ) that came with my Roxio Converter ( VHS to DVD ) software to burn the movie to disc.
HERE IS MY NEXT PROBLEM! I went to view the movies on my hard drive and iDVD won't recognize them. It says it can't find the missing audio and video files. Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks

Hello darrenfromnanaimo
Cross your fingers for a satisfactory answer to the "NEXT PROBLEM." When you copied the iDVD files to your external drive and deleted them on your computer -- hopefully you just deleted the iDVD files and not the iMovie files. If that's the case, you can reconnect the external iDVD files to the original iMovie files and you're back in business (open the external iDVD project and use it's browser to find the original iMovie files). If the iMovie files were deleted, that's a more difficult problem -- you'll need to recreate the iMovie files (re-import from the camcorder and re-edit), or you'll have to "rip" your DVDs back into an electronic file (which gives you only the finished product of your original editing, with slightly degraded video resolution).
