Issues with DVD Player 4.6.1. on MacBook Pro 1.83GHz 15'inch

I'm having problems with the DVD Player 4.6.1 version. When I insert a dvd the application doesn't start, it completly ignores the dvd. The icon shows up on the desktop screen but doesn't run. I tried to change on the Preferences Pane to open the application but keeps ignoring it. DOES ANYONE KNOWS HOW TO CHANGE OR SOLVE THIS PROBLEM!!! ANY HELP WOULD BE VERY APPRECIATED!!!

A much to late comment....
First thing I did when I bought my MacBook Pro was purchase an iSkin and covered my keyboard with it. If it get's grubby it's easily cleaned.
And never use something wet on any keyboard...tower or MacBook (the latter being much more expensive to deal with). On a Mac book, if water, anything wet, gets in the keyboard it can fry other components....much better having Apple Repair fix it right.

Is there an issue with the hitachi hard drives in the MacBook Pro's ? Got a 15 inch and a 13 inch at the same time and both drives have failed in under two years. I have heard from a few other people with same issue.

I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay. Works perfectly with my iPod Touch. The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect. Running latest IOS software.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

You said:
No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this.
That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem.

Anyone having issues with facetime fail on iphone 4 or macbook pro?

Is anyone having issues with facetime fail on macbook pro or iphone4?

Judging by all the posts on the forum, there seems to be an issue at Apple's end, although they have made no announcement on their status page.

Anyone have issues with Sata 3 SSD in the 2011 Macbook Pro

Hi Guys and Gals.
Does anyone have issues with the Macbook Pro 2011 Model with a Sata3 Solid State Drive ?
I have issues and have a Vertex3 made by OCZ. I am in active discussions with OCZ to find a resolution on their end. I have also contacted Apple Care and Intel and have run into dead ends.
However I am bringing my MBP for a repair, logic board replacement and will post the results after they change the logic board for me.
Check my thread on OCZ: http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/forum/showthread.php?89970-A-call-to-all-Macbo ok-Pro-2011-Users-with-SATA3-Issues
Regards,
Jase

Well, my My Genius appointment went very much as anticipated - it might well be a SATA III connection but Apple they do not support SATA III drives - least of all other people's.
Furthermore, they do not actually support anything other than the original configuration as sold - so given that I bought a 750 GB HD version, that is what I am stuck with - I asked Apple (London Regent St) if they could upgrade it to one of their own SSDs if I paid for it - they could not. They can only repair the machine to its original condition. They could not even advise me as to what Apple co-branded SSD I should look for to be compatible with this model - 512 Gb drives do come up on Ebay - Apple / Toshiba seems to be the normal one - but they couldn't advise if that would work or not. So it could be good money after bad.
Anyhow, they finally agreed to swap the cable, for a charge, so that will take two or thee days, plus the 5mins to do the job. I will post the results of the cable swap when I have it. They could not tell me whether it would be a different version of the SATA cable to the one already in the machine - but I asked to keep the old one so I can see if there is any visible difference.
It does seem strange that Apple support thunderbolt drives - which you can't even buy yet, but don't support SATA III in either Mac Pro or MAcBook Pro given that the full 3.0 standard was released on May 27, 2009.
Two and a bit years is a long time in tech terms.

I, as so many others, are also facing issues with my SATA 3 SSD. I've been reading about people having issues on OCZ's forum, on Intel's forum and all over the web. I have a MBP 2011 13" bought last month with the 6/6 setup.
Hotjase, have you come to understand that the issue lies with the logic board? One would hope that Apple would owe up and come forward if there are in fact faulty logic borards. I have read that Apple have gone from 6/3 to 6/6 and then back to 6/3, though I do not know if this is applicable to all MBP models, or just some. As I sayed, I have the 13" model.
SdeS, what was the result of your talk with the Genius? Did you receive a new cable? If so what result?

Issues with Thunderbolt-HDMI connection on Mid-2012 MacBook Pro

I have a 2012 MacBook Pro (non-Retina display) and just bought a thunderbolt-HDMI connector, but it's not working. A screen appears on the TV, only it's not my desktop screen, but the standard galaxy image in most Macs. Any idea how to fix this issue?

Your TV is extending your desktop. You can drag some of your windows off of the MBP internal screen onto the TV. You can control how the two screens are related spacially at System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement.
If you want the two screens to show the same picture, you should turn off "mirroring" on that same setting page.

Hi all,
I am getting "No valid certificates available for uthentication" message while trying to connect Cisco AnyConnect VPN. I am having a valid certificate in Keychain Access. I couldn't find an option to import the certificate to the VPN. Please help.

There seem to be much more problems with 3.1.04049
Especially with certificate authentication.
I opened some TAC cases.
Try 3.1.04063 that came out at 07-24-13.
TAC said that there are some fixes in it...

Problem with DVD Player

I inherited this computer and have spent the last couple of months upgrading it. Put a gig of ram in and added a PCI card to help with a multi screen setup but now I have hit my first major head ache. I bought a Pioneer DVR - 104 off of ebay and installed it no problem. The only issue is once I went to test out my dvd feature I found I had no DVD player. I tried updating the system but it would not install it. So I finally was able to get 3.1 off of this site and it won't start up. It just blinks on the dock once and dissapears. I checked the specs and this machine came with the superdrive but my father opted out of it, why I don't know, so there should be no issues with the hardware, can anyone help me on this?

Hi-
I'm sorry the extras is in OS 10.4- my mistake. In OS 10.3, I believe the DVD player is in the main package. I couldn't find it to install seperately. So.......
Let me recap-
1- The DVR reads install discs
2- DVD's won't play because DVD player does not run
3- DVD-R discs show no response
So-
1- The DVR is reading
2- The version of DVD player may not be compatible
3- There is no burn support
To check burn support, in System Profiler, check if under Burn Support "Yes" is showing.
My current thinking is, that since there was no DVR in the origional configuration, you may need to reinstall (Archive and install) the OS 10.3 to get the proper DVD player installed. this should also configure burn support.
The other way to get burn support is to use the patchburn that I gave you the link to.
BUT, I think you should do things one at a time. My advice is to first get the DVR to read, play and burn in that order. There is obviously a problem with DVD player, so, unless some else can advise differently, I would try the Archive and Install of the OS 10.3.
It may also be good to run the OS 10.3.9 Combined Update:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosxcombinedupdate1039.html
trying the combined update now wouldn't hurt. If it does not remedy the situation, try the Archive and Install, then update.
Best-

Problems with DVD Player 3.0.1 in G4/466

Problems with DVD Player in G4/466
Yes, I've a g4/466 with two disks. In the first there's system 9.2.2 and the DVD player goes perfect. In the second I've system 10.2 and the 9.2, and the DVD Player (3.0.1) on the system 10 begins to jump in the dock, but stop and nothing happens, I can't open it...
There's any way to reinstal it form system disks???
Or any download to check the error?
Thanks

1. Try using Pacifist to extract it from your Mac OS X 10.2 installation disks, and then run the combo updater for your version of Mac OS X and any applicable DVD Player updates.
2. Open the Console application in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and look for lines relating to the DVD Player.

M4500 anable to connect with DVD player

Hi,
Kindly help me I am not able to connect my Creative M4500 speakers with DVD player.
Regards

Not sure what your asking as it should be very simple, you are talking about the X-fi front bay unit right? You have a DVD player with R&w outs, you simply connect to those and then the same R&W connectors on the bay unit. I believe its treated as Linein2 in the mixer. Should be very simple to figure out
