Jumping dvds, please, i need help!!

In the holidays we went camping.I used digital cameras to capture footage and upon returning home, made two separate movies (3:49 & 2:23 minuets)
I used imovie to make them, then opened idvd, created a new project in standard video format using the 'lines' template. I inserted the two movies on the main menu and added a slideshow of extra photos. i burned the project to dvd (imation dvd+r) and tried it on the TV. So far so good.
Fairly pleased with my result, I proceeded to burn extra copies and found that out of the 15 I burned, 11 didn't work,in so far as they pixelate and jump as if they have a scratch on them (but they dont). Some are worse than others, and some are absolutely fine. The menu, movies and slideshow are all affected. Its not the dvds, burn speed or dvd player i dont think. It works on the computers dvd player.
Im desperate to get this finished, please help!

Why do you think it's not the DVDs, burn speed, or player?
My first instinct would be to say it's the disc. If you have a disc that plays OK, then we know iDVD did it's job so that rules that out. It seems your DVD players are working, so we can rule that out. It's just that some discs aren't working. To me, that says it's the discs. Not all media is created equal. And even the best of media can have a bad batch every now & then. Verbatims are usually recommend as being some of the better blank media. Hand in hand with that is the burn speed. The slower the burn speed, the more precise the data is burned onto the media making it easier for a variety of players to decode.
If you haven't already, create a disc image and use disk utility to burn at the slowest possible speed and with different media.

    You can take some of the steps here, #4, #5 or even trying a #18
    Step by Step to fix your Mac
    but I suspect your going to first have to create a data recovery drive
    Create a data recovery, undelete boot drive
    to get your data off the machine,
    then do a #20 to eliminate the bad sectors as that's why your getting the "pinwheel" it's getting a delay reading from the drive, right when your trying to log in too, what a bad spot for it to happen.

    Connect the iPod to your syncing computer and restore it via iTunes.  However, if iTunes asks for the unknown passcode you need to place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod from backup.  For recovey mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    "If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone and iPod touch software."

  • Please i need help very urgent !!! after deleting my exchange account because the company changed the password , I lost 150 200 contacts and i need to get them back very soon ! please help

    Please i need help very urgent !!! after deleting my exchange account because the company changed the password , I lost 150 200 contacts and i need to get them back very soon !  i never backed up on itunes ..please help

    No. The contacts are "owned" by the Exchange server.
    The Exchange server is owned by the company.
    Everything on the Exchange server is owned by the company.
    If you quit or were terminated, and your access to the system has been revoked, then there is nothing you and do at this point. Once you deleted the account from your phone, all of the associated data was deleted.
    NEVER store personal information on company systems.

  • Please I need help in upgrading applications

    Please I need help in upgrading my pdf-notes for ipad. it seemed like somebody hijacked my Apple ID, I had since solve the problem with Apple, I still have my original email address but I was unable to upgrade all applications I bought before my username was hijacked and pdf-notes is one of the applications. kindly advice me on what to do to upgrade.
    Thanks. Jimmy

    Okay Demo.  My theory is that accessing iCloud if apps were backed up to it can be redownload end then updated. I am thinking that with the new apple ID the iCloud account may only recognize the high jacked ID. I don't know if I made it clearer but I can do some digging. I don't like to see people using Apple devices having a tuff time. Not cool.

  • 1.4 bug? or bad code?  please I need help

    FTPClient.getFile(inputStream out,String filename) works fine if inputStream is directed to an output file. I added a Thread to read inputStream using piped i/o and works fine but the thread never ends. Seems like readLine() does not return null. Please I need help.
    note: FTP package located finj.sourceforge.net
    import java.io.*;
    import org.finj.FTPClient;
    public class FTPSimpleDemo extends Object {
    public FTPSimpleDemo ( String server,
    String user,
    char[] password ) throws Exception {
    PipedOutputStream pipeOut = null;
    PipedInputStream pipeIn = null;
    Thread reader = null;
    FTPClient client =
    new FTPClient(server,user,password);
    //download file
    try {
    pipeOut = new PipedOutputStream();
    pipeIn = new PipedInputStream(pipeOut);
    reader = new PipeIn(pipeIn);
    reader.start();
    client.getFile(pipeOut, "J_Event.txt");
    while(reader.isAlive() ||
    !reader.isInterrupted));
    pipeOut.close();
    pipeIn.close();
    client.close();
    }catch(IOException e){e.getMessage();}
    finally {reader=null;}
    public static void main ( String[] args ) throws Exception {
    new FTPSimpleDemo(args[0], args[1],
    args[2].toCharArray());}
    class PipeIn extends Thread {
    private InputStream in;
    private String str;
    public PipeIn(InputStream in) {this.in = in;}
    public void run() {
    try {
    BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(
    new InputStreamReader(in));
    while ((str=br.readLine()) != null)
    System.out.println(str);
    br.close();
    }catch (IOException e) {
    System.err.println(e.getMessage());}
    }

    Heres a tip: forget that open source library unless you need to customize it or something. Use the ftp library that comes wih the JDK. It is in an unsupported package (sun.net.ftp) check it out it couldn't be simpler:
    //you need this import statement
    import sun.net.ftp.*;
    //here is example code
    String server = "ftp.fileplanet.com";
    String user = "me";
    String passwd = "1234";
    FtpClient client = new FtpClient();
    client.openServer(server);
    client.login(user, passwd);
    client.binary();
    client.cd("games");
    //DO NOT CLOSE THIS INPUTSTREAM UNTIL YOU WANT TO CLOSE YOUR CONNECTION
    TelnetInputStream in = client.get("pacman.exe");
    //now do whatever u want with this inputstream
    byte[] bytes = new byte[4096];
    int x = 0;
    while((x = in.read(bytes)) != -1)
      out.write(bytes, 0, x);
      _totalBytes += x;
    out.flush();
    out.close();Also another tip for you to write code in the forum put your code between the [ code ] [ code ] tags

    I bought my macpro in NY but now I live in France. I want to order an album via IPHOTO and it cannot be delivered other than in US??? please I need help

    I assume you mean 'Order an album via iTunes', not iPhoto.
    If you live in France, I believe your account with Apple will need to show a French residential address and be supported by a credit card issued by a bank in France.
    That means you will need to open a new account if these details are not part of your current account.
    Incidentally, some albums in iTunes USA are not available in all countries due to licensing agreements etc.
