Hi I just updated from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.
I write DVD's using Final Cut Pro, creating a DVD that plays HD and Standard Definition on one disk.
My problem is when I used load the disk on my G5 it would ask if you want High Definition or Standard Definition, now it just defaults to Standard Definition.(I'm using Apple's DVD Player)
Can I fix this problem?

Addendum: I read on a post here (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=420169) about removing some kext files in order to trick OSX into thinking that there were no FireWire ports.
I followed the instructions and removed from /System/Library/Extensions/ the following files:
IOFireWireSerialBusProtocolTransport.kext
IOFireWireAVC.kext
IOFireWireFamily.kext
IOFireWireIP.kext
IOFireWireSBP2.kext
I restarted and BAM...Snow Leopard booted crazy fast and the mouse and keyboard worked instantly.
The System Profiler says "No FireWire ports were found."
So this tells me that the FW port is probably the culprit and is messing up the installation.
So how do I hack the Mountain Lion installer and tell it to ignore the FW port, which is obviously quite dead? Or is there something I can do to the Base system that is similar?

DVD drives read the bottom of the disk, not the top. Smooth out the paper & try again.

Please help. When exporting a 720p video using Quicktime Conversion in FCP it saves some extra temporary files to my computer. The file is called ICMMultiPassStorage. This file gets so large that eventually the program and exporting process crashes.

Please help. When exporting a 720p video using Quicktime Conversion in FCP it saves some extra temporary files to my computer. The temporary file it saves is called ICMMultiPassStorage. This file gets so large that eventually the program and exporting process crashes. I have been able to locate the file using GrandPerspective and close out of FCP to delete it. But when I try exporting the movie again it creates the ICMMultiPassStorage file again. I have made sure my scratch disks are set to my external hard drive so I know that isn't the issue. How do I fix this problem so these temporary files are not being stored on my internal hard drive instead of my external?Thanks!

Try exporting the timeline "using current settings" via Make QuickTime Movie, then submit that clip to Compressor for the transcode. This should be faster and less painful.

Freezing/hanging when taking pictures and videos in i phone 4

freezing/hanging when taking pictures and videos in i phone 4 with flash on.

Hi Mister.
Let's try to answer your questions.
- The E5 does not have a red light when you take pictures.
- I don't know about battery life comparing with E6 and E72, just can say on the E5 is quite good. It has a 1200 mAh battery, you should check the others, but also the features of each one, i.e. the E6 is a touchscreen one, so it consumes more power.
- It has a notification white light, around the navigation button.
Regards.

Applications Hang when selecting / attaching a file using Spotlight

Hi,
Having a problem since upgrading to Snow Leopard with applications 'hanging' when trying to attach a file using Spotlight. I can repeatedly cause the failure in Mail and Safari - and probably others as well - but these two applications I use most often and need to attach files to most often.
When I select "Attach a file", and use Spotlight to find the file to attach, the file dialog box closes and the attachment is apparently made - seconds later the spinning wheel appears and the dock tells me "Application Not Responding."
Any ideas as to how / why this is happening? Help make it stop!
Thank you,
Gordon.

OK Search box
Mine is OK so something is screwy..
In your Finder Prefs > Advanced > When performing a search drop down. Search this Mac seems to be default and the one I have set. Have you got it set to search the current folder or use the previous search instead?
I'd then pull out the com.apple.finder.plist from your user Library > Preferences to the desktop and let finder make a new one. If all is OK trash the old one.
Relaunch Finder by holding down the option key while right clicking Finder icon in the dock. Relaunch will be on the bottom of the context menu.

How to Optimize Quality of DVD Video using Premier 6.5

I am looking for some advice how to get the best video quality on the MPEG-2 DVDs I create. I capture my MiniDV video into Adobe Premiere 6.5 in AVI format using a D-Link (at least 2 years old) 1394 fireware card. I set my default projects settings to Microsoft DV Compressor, Frame Size 720 x 480, 16x9 aspect, 29.97 fps, depth millions, quality 100%. Once my editing is done, I export using Adobe Premier 6.5 MPEG encoding (I have the latest 1.3 update). I typically pick the DVD 16x9 High Bit Rate setting. My DVDs look OK. The Canon ZR30 MC MiniDV Camcorder I have been using recently died; it was about 5 years old. I just replaced it with a 3CCD MiniDV camcorder from Panasonic (PV-GS320) that should help in terms of the source video quality. I am not ready for HD. Too expensive to upgrade my PC and disk subsystem in particular and my preference will be an HD camcorder with no spinning hard drive or moving tapes. We are very close to this. I imagine many folks are in my boat in this in-between stage where we get to watch HD on our LCD TVs but must work in the stone ages with our DVD video editing software and equipment. I would appreciate any suggestions how to get better performance either by upgrading to newer software from Adobe (provided this will really help), buying a better capture card, changing my settings in Premier. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

>typically pick the DVD 16x9 High Bit Rate setting
I will qualify this by saying that I (used to) use Premiere 6.02 and the MPEG output added by a Pinnacle Dv500 card's software, so I don't have any direct experience with Premiere 6.5 and the MainConcept coding engine
But, I am
switching over to Premiere Pro
which also uses MainConcept, so I have some experience with settings
For a video up to one hour, your current settings are probably the best you can do
For over one hour, you should look at 2-pass VBR settings
In Pro, there is a place to adjust the 3 individual components, and I used a MINimum bitrate of 3 and MAXimum bitrate of 7 (see below) and would then play with the TARGET bitrate to have the highest setting where the software would say there was enough space (on a DVD) to export the project
That "play with" consisted of adjusting the target bitrate a tenth at a time (6.5 6.4 6.3 etc) until the status message would change from insufficient space to READY... at which point I knew I had the best quality the software could give
If you want to try a different product, visit Vendor site CCE Basic

And, some general information about burning DVD's
To
Burn Error Proof DVDs (Well, close to error proof!)
Use the SLOWEST possible burn option your burner will allow in Encore, since it is much better to take a bit more time burning the disc than it is to burn "fast" and have a disc that won't play
Set the VIDEO portion of the transcoding options to a Maximum of 7,000 so your burned disc will have a better chance at playing in desktop players (which support burned discs, if at all, only as an "after thought" of the DVD specification)
Use AC3 or PCM audio transcode settings for best player compatibility (some discussion of MPEG audio not being supported by all players, especially for NTSC discs)
Buy and use Taiyo Yuden (or Verbatim?) brand blank discs

blackbit, Welcome to the discussion area!
It doesn't seem to be able to route dns requests to the internal network (verified using nslookup).
That is true.

MacBook (Early 2009) - Screen freezes (hang) when playing music or video

Hi,
I have an strange problem with MacBook (Early 2009). Whenever I play music using ITunes or DVD with IDVD or even watch a video on youtube, my macbook will hang suddenly and a strange sound will come out.
To recover from this problem, i have to power off the system and power on the system again.
Initially, I thought it is related to iTunes but the same problem occurs even i use other alternatives (e.g. songbird) for playing of songs.
Please kindly advice me.
Thank you.
Michael.

I have a similar problem since the last update 10,5,7.
Always when I connect my iPod80GB the computer hangs, the problem only exist when running Mac OS X. It won't happen while running windows.
The same problem when I connect an external hard drive the computer hangs aswell (Mac OS X) (not in windows).
My personal feeling is that there are serious bugs in the last program update.

After staying up all night trying to figure out the problem, I gave up and just used an older version of QuickTime ver. 7.2 which worked just fine.
Thanks for any help with this issue.

Mac hangs when backing up to TC across ethernet network

I ended up with a T.C. which I am using over an ethernet network. The T.C. and the Mac are both connected to this network and both correctly get dhcp info from it (e.g. the mac is not directly connected to the T.C. and wireless is off). I can set up the T.C. over the network. However when the backup starts my machine basically stop (I can move the mouse but do basically nothing) and the backup appears to start then hang (given an entire night it stopped at about 3gb backed up). It appears to be a bug with either the mac or the T.C. or both but not sure. Has anyone else had luck with backing up in a similar situation. Any ideas for a fix. I'm wondering if the busy network is causing problems or ...

Sounds like you are connecting the Mac and the Time Capsule to an existing network. Have you tried connecting the Mac via Ethernet to one of the LAN ports (not the WAN port) of the Time Capsule? If that works, then chances are that your existing switch is problematic. Perhaps your existing switch doesn't support gigabit?

FCP hangs when speeding up AVCHD video.

Just what the title says. I import a large MTS file and start a new project. Everything is fine until I try to speed the video up whether that be 2x, 4x, 8x, etc. If I remove the audio it all works again. So it seems the audio is really causing issues when trying to speed up the video. What I am trying to do is speed the video up and maintain the audio pitch and I do have that checked, but my late 2013 Retina MacBook Pro i7 quad 2.6GHz 16GB 512GB SSD laptop gets very upset. Also, I have noticed by using the Activity Monitor that the process that speeds video up only uses one thread to do so which is highly disappointing since this is a very intensive operation. Is this a bug and is anyone else experiencing this?

The Original Media folder definitely has the .mts file and the Transcoded Media has the .mov files.
Tracked it down and it was me not being patient. If I try to accelerate the video right after I import the video and not wait for the background tasks to complete (I am guessing the transcoding of the video after the import in this case) FCPX hangs pretty hard. Sometimes it recovers after a long wait, but never fully acts normal after that. If I wait for the background tasks to complete and the meter reaches 100% all is good. I can understand my MacBook Pro being upset when the Activity Monitor looks like this and I am trying to load more on top of it.
I would say this is taking full use of my late 2013 MacBook Pro's quad core i7 2.6GHz CPU. 8 threads screaming and on-board fans whistling. Poor little guy.

I have OSX 10.5.7 on my Intel Mac. When I try to login using the correct password the screen goes white and just returns back to the login screen. It does not jiggle like when you enter the wrong password.

I have had a number of issues with my Intel Mac recently and had to reboot using disk utilities, safe mode, OSX recovery, but always come back to the login screen but when I type my password the screen goes white and returns to the login screen. My password is correct and the login does not jiggle as it would if the password was wrong. Please advise,

Back up all data if you haven’t already done so. There are ways to back up, even if you can’t log in. Before proceeding,you must be sure you can restore everything to the state it’s in now. If you’re not sure you can do that, STOP.
The procedure below may spare you the need for a clean reinstallation of OS X. If you don't feel comfortable carrying it out, don't. try.
Briefly, you need to delete the following file:
/var/audit/current
If you already know how to do that, you can skip the rest of this message. Do it, and try again to log in.
Boot in single-user mode by holding down the key combination command-S at the startup chime. If you’re using an external USB keyboard, it must be plugged directly into a built-in port on the Mac, not into a hub. Release the keys when you see a black screen with scrolling white text. In this mode, there’s no graphical interface; just a command line. Initially, you can’t make any changes to files.
When the text stops scrolling, and you see a line ending in a pound sign (“#”), type the following command:
mount -uw /
You must type the command exactly as given, with no mistakes. If you don’t feel able to do that, STOP. At this stage, no harm will be done if you make a mistake, but later, it will be. Press the return key.
Next, type the following command:
rm -i /var/audit/current
Press return. You should get the following output:
remove /var/audit/current?
If that's not what you get, STOP. Type the single letter N, press return, and try again. Otherwise, type the single letter Y and pressreturn.
Finally, enter the command:
exit
Press return. The text will start scrolling again, and then the system will reboot. Try again to log in.
