Might be the Dumbest Question ever!

Can I put IDVD on an external 1tb hard drive and connect a dvd burner, using a partition so that the program and half the drive space is used for operations and half is used for ram. What I am wanting to do is work a project up on my computer, then send it to I DVD program on the stand alone, hard drive/dvd burner to burn to Disk. My thought is that the I DVD project would burn to disk on the stand alone, while I continue with other projects on my computer. O.K. I'm really dreaming here., Huh?

Hello, and welcome to the discussions,
I have not tried this, so I am not certain about my response, but it has been my understanding that all the iLife applications must reside on your computer's main drive in order to function properly. You can put iMovie, iPhoto, iTunes files on external drives, and you can create iDVD projects on external drives. You could put iDVD project disk image files on an external drive and burn those, but then you would still have to create the disk image files on your computer, which would take the same time and computer-intensity as burning a disk. I currently have four external drives for my media files, disk image files, iPhoto and iTunes libraries and backups and all my iMovies, but I keep the iLife apps on my computer's hard drive.

    Hello, I am new to flash. I can't get the button
    functionality to work so that I can display it in Dreamweaver for
    the site that I am creating. I made buttons in photoshop, but I
    want the text to have the mouse over/down effect. After importing
    them into Flash, it appeared I was able to get the up/over/down/hit
    to work because I can preview it. But when insert the flash file
    into dreamweaver its just a gray box and not a button. There has to
    be something I'm doing wrong after I import it. Or, I don't fully
    understand the publish settings thing. Do you have to do that and
    insert all that javascript code in your page for each button? I'm
    so confused...please help.
    Kris.

    Nevermind, I'm an idiot.

  • Dumbest Question Ever

    Ok,
    I have Garageband 1.1.0 on my computer...I want to have the latest version, but when I tried to install the latest (3.0.4), the old comp-tor said:
    GarageBand_304 cannot be installed on this computer.
    An eligible GarageBand application was not found in /Applications.
    So I figured, mine's probably too old and that one's too new...I'll just get an older version of GB that's newer than mine...so I downloaded 2.0.2 and got the same exact message...
    Where do I find the version that I can download so I can start climbing up the ladder towards a new version of the program?
    RELATED QUESTION
    My friend also has Garageband (the newest version I do believe), and he tried to send me a file which contains a song that we're working on...but when I copied it to my computer, and tried to open it, it said "damaged file", followed by "Not a Defender File"...the latter comment I found somewhat curious, since I have not heard of "Garageband: Defender"...Anyway, I can't open the file...hence I began hunting for updates, thinking that might be the key to why I can't get at the file. One other detail...I thought maybe the type of CD he copied to might be affecting things...its a Memorex...are they like, not good or something?
    Anyway, if anyone can shed some light on any of this, I'd be most obliged.

    Sorry,
    I am really picky about this, because my company writes and sells software. There is nothing worse to us than a pirate. We use a dongle to protect ourselves, but let me tell you, the open admission of a crime is being committed simply by mentioning methods to get software for free.
    I know that won't be a popular thought, but if nothing else, there are kids here and if they see adults making these suggestions, they feel it is okay. Stealing is stealing, whether gum at the store or software off the net.

    PS: You can do the following, search out OEM versions of the software via google, it will be cheaper. Or, you can find someone who doesn't need their copy. I got my XP Pro install disk that way... The software is only loaded once, keeping the license in tact. In fact, in my case, the wrapper was still on the disk!

  • Possibly the dumbest question about MapLoader

    I've noticed that it is advised to use Maps once with the memory card in before trying to upload maps through MapLoader.
    My question is, do I have to be connected to internet while doing this?
    If I don't there is something wrong because I can't upload maps as MapLoader says my device is not connected when it actually is.
    Any help is very appreciated!
    The n95 klutz

    Hi kappy
    No you don't have to be connected to Internet at same time. When you exit Maps application with microSD in your N95 and data is saved, it creates the folder structure on microSD needed by Maploader to write the maps data.

  • Maybe the stupidest question ever, but Please Help

    I read on this forum that I should use the link provided to get the 10.4.9 combo update and that I should use that instead of the one provided in the regular software update. So I downloaded this combo update tomy desktop.
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1049comboupdateintel.html
    It opened in the Finder window, and now I don't know where to drag it. does it go in Applications, or where????
    Thanks.

    I also downloaded the Combo update for macbook pro today.
    But instead of getting a dmg file and double clicking it, etc. I had a different experience.
    I just went to the apple page that had the download,
    the clicked the download button, and the download began.
    Then when when the download ended, the software installed itself. I only had to answer a few questions, like where do i want to install it, and agree to terms of use, etc.
    But i didn't have to double click a .DMG file or drag to application forlder.
    Why was my way different?

  • The simplest question ever...

    I feel ******** asking this... but do you access ultrabeat. My manual tells me how to use it, but I can't find any mention of how I get to it or any other instrument. When I first opened up Logic it was open. I closed it and have not been able to find it since.

    Actually, the answer I was looking for was much simpler. I knew how to create the track, but I didn't know how to get the actual ultrabeat interface to pop up - you know where you actually make the beats. I figured it out shortly after I made the post.

  • This is the stupidest question anyone has ever asked I'm sure.  But how in the world do you turn the music off?  If I just turn the sound off, then it doesn't want to work in other apps either and the music just goes on and on.

    I have the dumbest question.  Is there an off button just for the music?  I can't get my music to stop playing. When I turn the sound off, the music goes on and on and the sound won't work on other apps.  Am I doing something worng?  Haven't had this thing very long.

  • The iphone is just about the dumbest thing invented. You cant get any messages back that accidently get deleted.

    My lock button is stuck. So i cant lock the screen when im not using it. I dont know how but it was in  my pocket and must have clicked my messages and deleted ALL of my messages between me and my boyfriend. I had messages from before we were even dating. My phone deleted all of my memories. Now i cant get them back. It may not seem like a big deal to you but it is to me.

    My lock button is stuck. So i cant lock the screen when im not using it.
    Huh?  If you set your phone to auto-lock, it will lock by itself.
    Settings > General > Auto-Lock > choose timing
    My phone deleted all of my memories. Now i cant get them back.
    If you have been backing up your phone, as instructed and as is considered routine maintenance for all computing devices, your data would not be lost. 
    Help me with my problem because Toyota makes the dumbest thing ever invented.  The parking break on my car is broken, and every time I park on a hill, my car rolls and smashes into other cars.  I now lost my insurance.  How do I get it back?  Why should I have to fix my out-of-warranty parking break?

  • This might be a simple question.   On those sites that do not differentiate between models when on the internet I.e. Facebook when after your comment and you cannot hit "enter" on an iPad for examp. And speed is slow to connect.  What is = to post?

    This might be a simple question. On those sites that do not differentiate between CRT, laptop, tablet etc. such as an iPad Mini and using the Facebook site fir example when going to post a comment and you do not have a enter button on the IPad and the speed is slow how do you get your comments to post if we do not have a enter button?

    I don't have facebook so I cannot answer but for your personal security, I have asked the hosts to remove your e-mail address.   It is very unwise to publish this.

  • How can I delete the first question, which is still there, that I ever asked in this community support, and that I have already had answered.

    The asking of questions and responding to answers on the support pages is a bit more complicated than I think it should be. The first question I ever asked was answered by a community member, but when I go to ask other questions, that first question is still there. Somehow I bypass that at times and get another question in, as right now. But why does that first question remain? I thought I said in the answers that my question had been answered, and replied to the person who answered it with my thanks.

    Hi Ideato:
    I was not talking about the questions that are in the question and answer section. I mean the question that I keyed in when asked for a summary of my question in one sentence, before it ever gets posted. You are right, of course, that questions and answers from someone else can be helpful to a lot of people.

  • Question.Why don't the apple company ever make a memory card that people could use for their apple product just in case customers run out of memory on their apple product?

    Question.Why don't the apple company ever make a memory card that people could use for their apple product just in case customers run out of memory on their apple product?

    One thing the iPad lacks is a file manager. There is no file explorer native on the iPad. If you started adding plugin cards, then you add the need for that.  And, in PC's, most viruses spread via the file explorer (the definition of a virus is a malicious program that propagates itself across multiple programs)
    There are a few drives out there for iDevices. Such as the WiDrive and others.

    I DO remember them but Apple chose to put them in Japanese and I can not change the language on Manage my Apple ID so I do not know if I made an error ,it threw me off , it was the wrong question Where did you fly to on your first Aiplane trip ? then I was unable to enter until 8 hours then called Apple Japan 4 times each time threy asked me would you like to speak with an English speaker,I said yes then they told me sorry today is Sunday no English speakers ,but they refused to speak Japanese, then I called 5th time and a kind guy could speak English we were on 1and 1/2 hours he got me to log in but the reset key chain could not be completed still pending.
    He said do not mess with that ! then I got a text from somewhere to reset 4 pins suddenly it was very strange I said to him that I got this pin this morning but it said you can use maximum 3 hours it had a UK number and I told him I do not like this and will not enter the code he said do not do it if it is from the UK and then I said to him ok you did a lot to help but we can not go any further ! and we cut of I went back to my computer to re do the ID but I found everything a mess so I call and a stupid sounding Japanese women with a squeaky voice came on I was calm at first and they want your phone number your IMEI number your iPhone serial number date of birth Address email address it takes 10 munutes to check then they ask what are you caling about so I try to explain my keychain is broken or problems with language security questions and can not change my pasword because the security question have failed me so it is ONE BIG HEADACHE AND I START I GET STRESSED she says Do want an ENGLISH speaker ,I say yes ,that guy i talked to earlier but I never got his name and first time I ever talked to him but they said he is not here so I said ok and then she said today is sunday so call back in the morning ,I said ,well ok in Japanese but they make you feel stupid because they do not want to speak Jap@anese with none natives and they are to busy,And they feel that I should not bother them ,then I say that Apple Japan is trying to refuse Apple foreign customers and then she wants to hang up and ask me to visit the shop ,but they are the same I have a very bad time with Apple Japan since they do not discuss software problems or security with customer meaning if you have a problem they ask you to come on a time 20 minutes max so they do hardware test and say you phone is fine then I say no I can not reset my ID they say you must call call centre so I am going around in circles ,When I call English it is usually Australia so if my problem is in Japan surely if do not want me to talk to them in Japanese and they ask me to call Australia but every time my call charge is expensive after asking them is this free because I have Apple care they say yes but when the call goes to Australia 0120 277 535 it might change to paid call so I call then I have to ask is this charging they say we can not give you that information ! so what can I do I have have been at the computer and phone all day on my day off work and in tre week I am so busy and can not use my phone I can not work without it ,this new technology for you ,they can not cope with the fact that the customer have problems yet they do not want to deal with us because they can not solve it and so it shows them to be useless they like to walk around in their cool tee shirts and retro shop but when it comes to functionality we are unwelcome they got the money so do not return because apple is perfect that nothing should go wrong .
    But it does somehow my English security answers do not work on a Japanese Question especialy if I did not choose that question I set  up the multiple choice In English and wrote the answers in English or Roman and set them langauge preferences in English, do you really think you can correctly write english name or word in Japanese they write a police patrol car  pato caa パトカア　they do not have r and l .So it is my choice to make my security easy for me and as difficult for others to hack.But they also have patororoo choo meaning ' now patrolling ' so why they have pato caa patrol car and patoro patrol and have thousands of Chinese words kanji they can find patrol.
    I am getting off the topic but I am at a loss to fix this problem when they hold the keys and i have all the info to verify my ID.
