Missing File when trying to Burn to DVD

I am trying to urn my current project to DVD, and I keep getting an error as soon as I do that says: Missing File. It then specifies the path name which is something in my iphoto folder? Has anyone seen this before? I deleted my project and started over from scratch but it did the same thing the second time around.

It seems to me that you either have not opened the project in iMovie or are unable to for some reason. It's also pretty obvious that iDVD at least thinks that an element from iPhoto is missing.
I would suggest this. Take an obvious picture that does not belong in the movie. Open iDVD and in the error window, navigate to the replacement picture (you can select the file). Do a Save-as so your original project is unchanged. Using preview in iDVD, look for the error, then you can find a suitable picture to substititute. Then repeat the process with a desirable picture in place. clik on the picture and again save as so not to modify the original.
Good luck!

    when trying to Burn a DVD I get the following error:
    'The drive reported an error:Sense Key=MEDIUM ERROR Sense Code=0x73,0x03' 
    Please advise

    this reccommendation is to OS 10.5.8 only
    Go to the hard drive find the following folders and look for the following file, com.apple.finder.Plist, delete it and restart the computer. Its found under the following folder Users-account name-library-prefrences. This helped resolve my issue for now.

  • I am getting error code 0x8002006E when trying to burn a DVD

    Hi, I am running the latest Lion update, on my MB Pro, and keep getting the error code 0x8002006E when trying to burn a DVD. Could this be a dirty lens issue in the drive. I see that many others have had the same problem, but relly cant seem to find anyone that has a solution that works.. Help

    It's an error thrown by Mac OS X's DiscRecording framework (as opposed to an error communicated by the drive's firmware). The message is (as you probably saw)
    "The burn failed because of a medium write error."
    Could this be a dirty lens issue in the drive.
    I don't think there's one single cause for this error. It might be a dirty lens. It might be something else. Not all recordable optical discs work well with all burners. Try a different brand.

  • Crashes when trying to burn a DVD

    I have been trying to burn a DVD using both Toast and Wonderhare and it seems no matter what program I use it will crash the program when I try to burn it. I have tried applejack to see if there are any problems that need to be fixed but none were found. What should I do?
    Thanks!

    Could you specify the specifications of the computer's internal hard disk
    drive, in both full capacity and the amount remaining as unused? These
    numbers, actually three (capacity, amount used, remaining free) may be
    the cause of the problem; if the drive is getting too full and should these
    burn folder files be a tripping point, the system could be compromised.
    {That is just one possibility; since systematic routine maintenance is a
    process I've done, and pre-suppose others do it, too. The basis of a
    healthy computer is the awareness of certain factors and preventative
    maintenance to keep the system as healthy as it can be. Then if some
    thing acts up, there is less to wonder about at that point in time.}
    The simple stuff, such as 'repair disk permissions' in Disk Utility, after
    booting up in SafeBoot mode (hold Shift key until login window appears)
    can help; then after Disk Utility is done, quit it & restart the computer.
    Logs and reports are often stored and readable in Console utility, also
    in System Profiler> Software> Logs (see Blue apple, about this Mac,
    button More Info> System Profiler.) Console has many different ones.
    You could see what those HDD numbers are, and also look into Activity
    Monitor, when the computer is running and before a crash, to see
    where the computer's resources are being used and how.
    If the computer does not have sufficient chip RAM installed, and is also
    running with a nearly too-full hard disk drive, the computer could crash
    when several apps and large-size files are being manipulated.
    The computer could be started from the Tiger install disc and disk utility
    run from the drop-down menu bar in the Installer window; start from the
    Tiger DVD by holding C key down, the second screen (past languages)
    is the Installer and submenu choices. Disk Utility can try to repair disk
    and also repair disk permissions; and verify disk SMART status. When
    done, choose Macintosh HD from the Startup chooser menu in Installer
    menu, and restart. This may help; but there obviously is something amiss.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • TS4522 What is the problem when I get error code 0 when trying to burn a DVD.  It stops around 60-some %.

    I have tried twice to burn a DVD, and both times I get error code 0 at about 60-some % of the transcoding.  I haven't had any trouble burning DVDs before now.

    I had a friend with similar problem, not sure of cause. Happened when sharing to Apple device as well.
    Apple said to delete all files in Render folder. We did not try that as-
    Problem changed slightly for us, in that Share to 'Apple device 720' got to 50% and pretended to have completed its operation, but no file found in Project Share folder.
    We found then, if the timeline clips where highlighted it would share, where previously it had repeatedly failed.
    Hope that helps

  • IDVD crashes unexpectedly when trying to burn a DVD.

    Hi. Although this question is previously asked by 'Marie' and successfully answered by 'Silly Rabbit', I and many other users experience the same problem of iDVD crashing when pressing the 'Burn' button, even after following the steps:
    1. Remove iDVD and all relative files (playlists, projects)
    2. Repair permission from disk utility
    3. Run Onyx cache cleaner (system+kernell)
    4. Re-install iDVD
    5. Re-run permissions repair.
    and still nothing. Crashes the minute I press 'Burn' regardless the type of menus, content (video, images), file size, etc. Additional dvd-r software in computer are mac the ripper and popcorn and vlc player. All MAC OS X updates are done since it is a brand new iMac G5. Can't get any help from apple. Thought crashing, bugs and re-installations would be history when changed from PC a month ago...
    Any help?!
    Thank you
    Panos
    Happy new year

    Hi Panos,
    Sorry you had to bump your head in iDVD so soon after geting the iMac. In my oppinion is the most buggy piece of software Apple ever made. The idea is very nice, and I tried all sort of things to make this program work, because i like it a lot. But it's just not working. I switched to DVD Studio Pro, which works like a charm, and you have much more options and controll.
    The plist is the preference file, each program has one. It's normal that another file is created when you start the program. The reason to delete it is exactly this one: to create a new plist. Be aware that the settings are restored to their default values, for instance to NTSC (and you also want PAL, like me), when a new plist is created.
    You can try also to delete previously encoded assets (Advanced>Delete Encoded Assets), maybe it will make a difference for you.
    And please, don't be dissapointed because of iDVD. The rest of Mac OS X, and other programs, and Apple hardware are just nice.
    Good luck

  • Chapter Markers won't show up on Chapter Menu when trying to burn a DVD.

    Help,
    Trying to burn an SD DVD disc in FCP X from the Share menu.  I've set Orange Chapter Markers with Titles in my project from the timeline and these don't appear when I check the box to use chapter markers for Subtitles in the Destinations box to burn a DVD.  I've set a photo in the main menu and it appears with the Title of my Project, but in the Chapter Menu it only shows the default list of Chapter 1, Chapter 2, etc.  Shouldn't my Chapters show up on the list after they've been set up on my timeline in the project?  Also, I tried burning a disc with my Chapters not showing up on the chapter list and my disc only plays from the Main menu where the picture is inserted.  There's a slash line in the Chapter list button stating I can't use that option and I can't play chapters.  Trying to get this project out the door before January 20, 2013.  Can someone please help?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Can you post some screen shots? The chapter marker dialog box in the timeline. The DVD menu.
    What's playing back the DVD?
    Have you tried it without the background image? Build a disk image rather than burn a disc.

  • Error Message When Trying To Burn A DVD

    I just got a new MacBook Pro running 10.6.3 and when i try to burn a DVD using Toast 7. And I get this error message and the disk will not burn. Does anyone else get this message and how can I fix this.... Thanks
    The drive reported an error:
    Sense Key = Medium ERROR
    Sense Code = 0x02
    No SEEK COMPLETE

    I know it sounds crazy on a new machine, but the slightest bit of dust or dirt can cause problems with the DVD - try running a lens cleaner disc through it and see if that helps ...

  • Formatting write error every time when trying to burn a DVD

    DVD Studio has worked for me in the past, but now every time I try to burn a DVD project, I get this: "Formatting failed - The recording device reported the media error: Write error (0x0C, 0x00)"
    As far as I can tell, I cleared the prefs for DVD Studio, but that didn't help. Does anyone have an idea of what I can do to fix this problem? Thx.

    Hi:
    Wellcome to the forum !
    Probably DVDSP and/or your drive don't like your media. No matter that, me and other found that DVDSP is one of the worst way to burn DVDs.
    Try * Creating Disc Image in DVDSP * and burn it using Disk Utility and/or Toast.
    About your media, you can * USE THIS SITE * as reference.
    Hope that helps !

  • Getting Error Message When Trying To Burn To DVD HELP!!!!!

    This is the error message I am getting as soon as I click on the "burn" button.
    The following warnings and errors were found during the validation of the current project:
    - There seems to be too much motion menu content in your project. Correct this problem before you continue burning this project.
    Any ideas? Please help ASAP, this project is for my grandpa's birthday and I'm trying to finish quickly!
    ~K

    It's a good idea to check the Project Info (under the Project menu in iDVD) before burning a disc. If any of the Duration bars are in the red, then you need to go back and edit your project. Also check the Encoding type with your total Project Duration: if the project total is under 60 minutes choose "Best Performance;" if it is between 60 and 120 minutes you'll need to select "Best Quality."
    Unless you have freed a lot of GB on your hard drive, iDVD will not be able to burn the disc. You'll need at least 15 -25 GB free on your boot drive in order for the app to do all that encoding. It takes a lot of brainwork to turn a 13+ GB movie project into a 4GB DVD file.
    When your project is ready to burn, choose File > Save as Disc Image. This tells iDVD to do all the encoding, and will result in a disc image file that you can mount in your DVD Player app to see that all is well. If so, you can quickly burn the disc image with Disc Utility or an app like Toast. If not, then you haven't burned any coasters. Another advantage is that you will be able to burn duplicates of the disc image very quickly, without going through all that encoding again, should other relatives request a copy.
    Regards.
