Is there ANY software I can use to make a DVD playable by PC's Macs and DVD

OK, I have been fooling around for over a year on this and still have no answers. Here's part of my original post. I have home movies that were done with film and transfered to m2p files. I want to make copies for my daughters, who have DVD players and PCs. One has a Mac. I used Toast 10 to convert to mpeg4. I burned a DVD with Toast. It plays on the PCs and on the DVD players, but NOT my Mac. I tried H264 format...same thing. I can burn the mpeg4 files to a DVD with Quicktime Pro and they play on my Mac, but not on the DVD players. Commercial movies play on anything. Is there anyway I can do this on my Mac???
Jim Frank (still perplexed)

Thanks Jeremy, here's what I can tell you. I played a commercial DVD in my Mac and it played fine. It opens up with DVD player. I put the DVD I made in the Mac. I made several of them in different manners. On one, I converted the m2p file to mpeg 4. Then I burned in Toast , selecting DVD_video. On another, I did a convert to H264 and burned it using DVD_video. The third I just copied the m2p file into Toast and used DVD_video. When I did the burn on all 3, I went to the menu option and put in a title and used the passport style for my title page.
When I put the DVD in the Mac, it automatically opened to the Title page, in passport style. When y ou click on the play button, nothing happens. Can't fast forward, can't open menu, etc. I closed out DVD player and went to Quicktime player. I clicked on "open file" and selected the DVD in the finder window. When I click on it, it opens to the Audio_ts and Video_TS folder. Clicking on the video folder I get 8 different folders in there. Clicking on most of them does nothing. Clicking on the one that looks like a Quicktime folder, I get the message " not a movie folder" I also tried to open it using VLC player. It opens u p the Title page, like DVD player and you can't get it to play.
So now what do you think!

    Is there any package that could do something like this: that would click a certain spot on the screen over and over at timed time
    import java.PACKAGENAME;
    public class Click {
    int delay;
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    while(true) {
    click(869, 102); // a certain dot on the screen, (pixel x, pixel y);
    }

    //import awt
    java.awt.Robot rob = new Robot();
    x,y to click at.
    d delay between mouse up n down - u can just do the down too

              doFore();
              //u.sl("do mouseClick x " + x + " y " + y + " d "  +d );

  • I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

    I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create>pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

    Provide you have Acrobat 9 installed in an OS for which Acrobat 9 is compatible then you can use the functionality.
    As well, you need a scanner connected, powered up, and the software installed. Acrobat 9 "prefers" TWAIN drivers.
    Always visit the scanner vendor's site and download - install the latest greatest software.
    n.b., The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year 2013.
    As well the Acrobat 9.x product family is not compatible with contemporary OSs.
    Be well...

    Allan,
    If you get your album artwork from the iTunes Store, it is stored in the folder iTunes/Artwork in an encrypted ".itc2" file.  There may be tools out there to extract it, but it is generally much easier to get the art via a web search in JPG format to use in projects.

  • We have a virus, any software I can use to get rid of it?

    We have a virus, any software I can use to get rid of it?

    You don't have virus. Please describe the symptoms that makes you thing you have. Also:
    There are many forms of ‘Malware’ that can affect a computer system, of which ‘a virus’ is but one type, ‘trojans’ another. Using the strict definition of a computer virus, no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions. The same is not true of other forms of malware, such as Trojans. Whilst it is a fairly safe bet that your Mac has NOT been infected by a virus, it may have another security-related problem, but more likely a technical problem unrelated to any malware threat.

  • I want to buy a new apple tv but it used hdmi cables and my house is only wired for analog.  Is there any way I can use the apple tv on analog cables?

    I want to buy a new apple tv but it used hdmi cables and my house is only wired for analog.  Is there any way I can use the apple tv on analog cables?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It's do-able, but I don't think it's a great idea.
    DVI
    Some users with DVI have managed to get their TV's to work with DVI-HDMI cables. DVI carries no audio, so alternative connections need to be explored to enable audio. DVI doesn't necessarily support HDCP as well as other standards used by HDMI (which may or may not be an issue)
    Analogue
    There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
    HDCP
    HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as that from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
    Resolution and aspect ratio
    I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p (Apple TV 2), 720p/1080p (Apple TV 3)
    DAC

    Hi champrider,
    You can use an application such as Apple Remote Desktop to control your iMac remotely. See this article -

    This help page will provide you with some other useful resources for Apple Remote Desktop -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • My airport express works on my MBPro 17 w/ 10.5.8 but not my MBAir11".  The MBAir says that this version of Airport utility doesn't support this base station.  Is ther any chance I can use this with my MBAir?

    My airport express works on my MBPro 17 w/ 10.5.8 but not my MBAir11".  The MBAir says that this version of Airport utility doesn't support this base station.  Is ther any chance I can use this with my MBAir?

    Is this an older "round" version of the AirPort Extreme? If yes, it is true that AirPort Utility 6.x no longer supports the older AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express models.
    A model number......located on the bottom of the Extreme or on the side of the Express would be helpful to confirm what you have.
    Apple probably does want you to buy a new AirPort Extreme.
    The workaround might be to use a Mac or PC running a 5.x version of AirPort Utility.
    A more complicated workaround would be to install AirPort Utility 5.6 on Mountain Lion.  This is not supported by Apple......it does work for me.....but may not work for you. See this article for more details:

  • Is there any way I can use bi beans without the patches

    I am a Chinese student,I am doing some research on OLAP.
    I'm in the initial stages of evaluating BI Beans for my research. We have previously not used Oracle in house.
    In attempting to use BI Beans, the first thing you must do is install the latest patches against the Oracle database. Unfortunately, the patches are only available for people with a suport contract.
    Is there any way I can get these patches without a support contract, or is there any way I can use bi beans without the patches?
    thanks alot,

    You must have a valid support contract to access Metalink. You could try contacting your local support centre and ask if they could make the patches available to you.

  • Is there any way I can use Skype Number with Viber...

    Hello. With my Skype Number is there any way I can use it with Viber? So I give my Skype NUmber to a friend and they add me on Viber? Or do I have to divert my skype numebr to my actual number?

    Hi, if you give your Skype number to your friend they can make a Viber Out call to that number if they have some viber credit. Calls to landlines are usually cheap but it depends where in the world your friend is calling from.
    Have you got a Viber account too ? Viber to Viber over the Internet is free, like Skype to Skype being free. Persoanally I have both networks now.
    Viber is on smartphones, some feature phones and there's a desktop app too. Your Viber account is based upon the mobile number you register and Viber recognises phone numbers of your contacts to see if they're registered on Viber too.
