Import from burned CD

My sister burned a CD to be viewed in iPhoto, then mailed it to me. I would like to import her pictures. I don't know what version of iPhoto she uses; but I have iPhoto '08.
No joy.
iPhoto doesn't want to import the photos. Why? How can I get these into my library?

Yes the disk shows in the window, and I can see all the pictures except one. They are in events or folders. But my options are limited.
The disc shows up under Shares which seems to explain why I can't edit, import, duplicate, export, or anything else except view.

  • Importing from burned DVDs

    Hi,
    I'm about to buy a Canopus ADVC300 to import old VHS home movies into FCE, but I'd also like to import footage from some full length burned DVDs so that I can add effects, titling etc. (They're school plays, so no copyright protections, etc.) Can I also use that device to import the DVDs? I'm not sure if it will work since the DVDs are technically already digital, but I'd like to be able to use the Canopus to clean up the inevitably shakiness and bad audio quality. Will this work? Can I just plug my DVD player into the Canopus the way I would a VCR? Is there a better solution that will maintain/clean up the quality?
    Thanks!

    Yes, you can plug your DVD player into the ADVC-300 just the same as your VCR.
    An alternative which will be faster is MPEG Streamclip to directly convert the DVD video to DV or AIC for editing in Final Cut. MPEG Streamclip is free and exellent. However you may need to purchase the QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component from Apple ($19.99) if you don't already have it installed on your Mac. (The conversion is faster because the ADVC works in real time as you play back the video on the VCR or DVD player; MPEG Streamclip can directly convert the video and audio from the files on the DVD).

  • Following new motherboard and cd/dvd reconnection, when i try to burn a disc from itunes I now get the message "The Registry settings used by itune drivers for importing and burning CD's

    Basically we had a new motherboard fitted, we then found our CD/DVD drive had not been reconnected.  After this has been done, when we try to burn a cd from itunes, we get the following message:-
    The Registry settings used by itune drivers for importing and burning CD's and DVD's are missing.  Reinstall Itunes.
    I've removed and reinstalled itunes a few times now and we still have the same issue.  HELP please.

    I can get down as far as step 11 but it shows nothing about upper filters and when I type on "If the Upper Filters entry is missing follow these instructions" nothing happens
    Do you mean you can't see the instructions on what to do if there is no UpperFilters entry?
    If so, here's the relevant instructions for that step:
    On the right side of the Registry Editor window, right-click the UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.
    Right-click the empty white space within the right-hand portion of the Registry Editor window. From the shortcut menu, choose New > Multi-String Value.
    Name this new value "UpperFilters" (without the quotes). Then, right-click the newly created UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.

  • I received the following message when iTunes launches: "The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CD's or DVD's are missing.  This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning softwarre.  Please reinstall iTunes"

    Everytime I connect my iPod Touch (4th Gen) to my laptop, running Win 7 (64 bit) I get the message "The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing.  This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software.  Please reinstall iTunes"  I have reinstalled iTunes several times and it has not fixed the issue.  I am running ver 10.2.2.12 of iTunes.  I HAVE NOT installed any other burning software to my laptop either.  I haven't tried uninstalling iTunes and then re-installing it yet.  Would that perhaps fix the problem?  I've read that many users have had issues with the new version of the software and I was wondering if that might be causing my issue.  I'd like to point out that iTunes seems to work after getting rid of the message, but I haven't tried to burn any CDs or put music from a CD to my laptop.  Any ideas on how to get rid of the annoying message?
    I also am having trouble hooking up with our other computers using  Homegroup.  I noticed quite a lot of people are having the same issue and hopefully they come up with a fix for that soon.
    Thanks in advance.

    iTunes for Windows: "Registry settings" warning when opening iTunes
    If you're still getting the error message (especially when you plug in the Touch), I'd check for a device filter confusion on the PC. (They can affect the connection of USB devices to a PC, as well as burning and importing CDs.) For that one, see:

  • Itunes 7.4.1.2 - Vista 64 bit - unable to import or burn cd

    Hello.
    Last night I installed Itunes 7.4 on my vista 64 bit box and kept getting the error that ITunes had installed incorrectly and I would not be able to import or burn cds.
    I then tried repairing and uninstalling and reinstalling but to no avail. Then this morning I tried downloading and installing 7.4.1 and am still getting the same error.
    The about menu tells me that the cd driver dll is unavailable.
    Can anyone please help out?
    Cheers,
    David

    iTunes is not supported on any of the 64-bit versions of Windows, so you will not be able to get any official assistance from Apple (and they don't provide any technical support in the Discussions anyway; these forums are, with rare exceptions, user-to-user only). You can search the forum for "64-bit" and see what people are suggesting in other threads. One suggestion I've seen is that you need the 64 bit Gear drivers. You can download them from here:

    Hope that helps.

  • I have updated to the latest itunes, and it now won't allow me to import or burn CD's or DVD's. it says it is to do with the registry settings, and that recently added cd burning software may have something to do with it.

    please help!! i've recently updated to the latest itunes version. after much hassle in doing so, it now tells me that the registry settings for importing or burning CD's/DVD's doesn't work and that i should reinstall itunes. i,ve done that from the website and from a saved position, but it doesn't work. i don't want to have to delete my library to have to start again !!!! there must be another way. it also said that it might be to do with other CD/DVD burning software, but i haven't put any on my computer that itunes didn't seem to lke before

    I have the exact same issue. I havent found our what is causing it either. Multaple re-install attempts with no success. I have to use Windows Media Center to burn audio discs.  Any other advice?

  • Images imported from library are empty

    Sorry, I did post this query a few days ago, and I did get a
    response but unfortunately it did not help.
    When I import my images to the library, I can see them fine
    in the viewer window. However, when I drag the images to the stage
    I get just an empty frame. I do not know what the problem is. I
    have tried importing the same images into a stage on an older
    version of Flash and there is no problem. I see the images fine.
    So, what can be the problem with Flash CS3.
    I was advised by this forum to check to make sure the
    "outlines" option was turned off on that layer. I tried this, but I
    had no luck. Interestingly though if I work in Flash 8 on the same
    computer and then import the Flash 8 files to CS3 I can then see
    images I import from the library, even after I have converted the
    Flash 8 files to CS3 format. At the moment it is the only way I can
    work with CS3. Does anyone have any advice on what to do?
    Thanking you all,
    Mary

    Hi
    There are several layers to this.
    a. There are no HD-DVD - DVD is as standard only Standard Definition as on old CRT-TVs and can never be anything btter as iPhoto showes on Your Mac screen (5 to 10 times higher resolution)
    b. One can get a result less than iDVD SD quality and down to really bad by
    • Using iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - as they discard every second line in the picture = 50% loss
    • Using iMovie HD6 and NO Ken Burns effect AND "Share to iDVD" as this also results in disaster (heavely pixelated Bad bad pictures) - (as iMovie will render badly)
    c. I build my SlideShow in
    • iMovie HD6 - and no Ken Burns effect - BUT I close iMovie and import iMovie movie project (SlideShow) from within iDVD and now iDVD will render and so much better.
    • FinalCut also delivers maximal quality over to iDVD
    (from FCE/P - Export out as QuickTime .mov - NO QuickTime conversion (Important))
    • iMovie'08 to 11 - I Share to Media Browser and as Large (not HD or other)
    iMovie HD6/FinalCut + iDVD will give as high quality possibly to the resulting DVD.
    I use
    • Verbatim DVD-R
    • set down burn speed to x4 (Plays better on many DVD-Players)
    • Pro Quality encoding - I got the time and like the result

  • Get error message that says, "ITunes not properly installed.  If you wish to import or burn CD's, you must reinstall Itunes."

    Hello:
    I have installed Itunes on my new Windows 7 based computer (64 bit) and get the following error message everytime the program opens, "ITunes not properly installed.  If you wish to import or burn CD's, you must reinstall ITunes."  So, I have removed ITunes, Quick Time and Apple associated software, twice, from my computer and reinstalled the latest version (10.4.1) but get no fix to the problem.  ITunes will import CD's but will not burn them with this error in place.  Anybody know how to fix this problem?

    if you have 64bit os this is problem:
    Any 64-bit version of Windows is not supported so you should expect certain things not to work. From Apple's iTunes page the Windows requirements are:
    32-bit editions of Windows XP or Vista
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later required for Apple TV or iPhone
    500 MHz Pentium class processor or better
    QuickTime 7.1.6 or later (included)
    256MB RAM
    Supported CD-R or DVD-R drive to burn CDs
    Broadband Internet connection (DSL/Cable/LAN) for buying and streaming music

  • TS3299 iTunes was not properly installed.  If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes

    I've installed iTunes 10.6 on my Windows 7 machine.  Everytime I start it I get this message:  iTunes was not properly installed.  If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes.
    Reinstalling iTunes made no difference.
    So I found this article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3299  and updated the registry like it said and it still didn't work but it also had the effect of making my CD drive no longer work for anything, including playing movies.   Before following those instructions I could read and write cds using Windows Media player.  Fortunately, I had backed up my registry leaf and restored it.
    So I've been trying to figure out how to burn a cd from iTunes for close to two months now with no luck.  Does anybody know how to get rid of the above error message?
    Thank you!

  • Why is my import from DVD-R going soooo SLOW??

    OK, I'm very new in the Mac world and am still trying to move my photos from my PC. I burned all of the photos to a DVD-R using the Kodak gallery program. I have 3 DVDs of photos.
    Now I am in the process of importing into iPhoto. I opened iPhoto, inserted the DVD #1, and then selected import to library. The first thousand photos imported fine, but the last hundred or so have taken FOREVER...like several minutes per photo.
    Should I let this just go overnight, or stop the import and try again?
    Has anyone ever experienced this slowness when importing from DVD?
    Thanks!

    CC:
    You would be better off copying the files to a folder on the desktop and then into iPhoto as copying from a disk the file first has to be copied to a temp file and then into iPhoto. I don't know how far you are in the current disk import but for the future ones I'd definitely copy to a folder first and then into iPhoto.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Best way to import from iTunes & audio lock to video?

    I just started with PrE 10 and am coming from years with iMovie HD6 (never liked the later versions). Can audio tracks be dragged from iTunes (by having 2 minimal sized windows of each application open) into the Project area? Or do you need to try and find each song by going through the whole Get Media  File/Folder link process? I've tried dragging a few songs from iTunes, and it didn't seem to work (it was very easy in iMovie). I was able to add photos to the Project area from iPhoto by dragging them over from the iPhoto window.
    Also, is there a way to lock (or link) the beginning of an added audio/soundtrack clip to a video clip, so that it does not inadvertently get moved, or so that if you move the video clip, or delete an earlier video clip, the locked audio goes with that video clip?
    [Moved to the Premiere Elements main forum]

    With Audio, you need to Import the file (Get Media), as Premiere needs to Conform the Audio, creating both a CFA (Conformed Audio) file, and a PEK (Waveform Display) file, and link to those.
    Now, with iTunes, there can be some problems, though things have gotten a bit better recently. If you DO have an issue, you can create a Playlist in iTunes, and copy over all the files that you need for your Project, then burn a CD of that Playlist. The Audio-CD will be in the CDA container in as a WAV file, which should Import just fine, into PrE.
    Actually, it might be easier, even if the iTunes music does Import, to create a Playlist in iTunes, where you can drag and drop right from the iTunes GUI, and then Import from that Playlist.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Import from minidisc

    My wife has tons of stuff on minidisc and wants to import to the iMac to burn CDs. What is the best way to get songs off her dedicated minidisc player - which doesn't have audio out - into the Mac? I've read that it's possible to use the headphone socket on the minidisc player but didn't think that the impedances or output/input matched. I've previously used a Griffin iMic for import from an external amplifier into Peak LE3 then saving as AAC into iTunes.
    If headphone socket is not an option does anyone know of a reasonably-priced MD player with audio out? I'm based in the UK.
    Thanks,
    Geoff.

  • Artwork imported from Inkscape looks weird!

    Whenever I try to do anything in Ai with the artwork I imported from Inkscape, error messages keep popping up!  And the third time I imported a file into Ai, (with text I converted to a path), I noticed that the blurred drop-shadows looked strange.  Upon closer examination I see that some letters, (shadows of letters that is), in the word appear darker!  This was not the case when the file was in Inkscape.
    Other problems cropped up with the files I imported to Ai.  I imagine it's because Inkscape and Ai work differently? 
    Anyway, can anyone tell me how I can fix this current problem? 
    Thanx in advance for any help. 

    +Once in idvd I had to drop the quality from best to high quality in order to get the movie to fit on the disc.+
    The limitation for iDVD is the length of TIME of the movie, not the size. Do you mean that you selected 'High Quality' instead of 'Best Performance' because your movie exceeded 60 minutes?
    You might try burning your DVD again, but this time chose the 'Professional Quality' option.
