  • How do I configure a Pioneer DVR-XD10 external dvd writer to my macbook pro laptop?

    How do I configure a Pioneer DVR-XD10 external dvd writer to my macbook pro laptop?
    I read online that you could use an external dvd writer on a macbook pro when the internal dvd writer died.
    Please help?
    It shows power running through the external dvd writer when I plug in the two usb ends into the respective ports, but it doesn't recognize it when I try to write media to a DVD.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    If you have not already done so, your chances will really improve if you....
    1) Connect the printer to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme
    2) Download and install Bonjour Print Services for Windows on the PC

    Why did Apple get rid of the DVD slot in the MacBook Pro?

    Because relatively few people used it and Apple wanted to decrease the size/price of the computers.

  • Problems Moving Ripped DVD from Itunes to Ipod

    Problems Moving Ripped DVD from Itunes to Ipod
    I am having a problem transfering ripped DVD's from the Itunes Video folder to the actual Ipod. I thought one of the cool points of the Video Ipod was that you could play DVD's on it. I know I needed to use special software to achieve this since I researched it here. I am using Handbrake Lite since regular Handbrake look too daunting for me. I also used Isquint, since it was recommened here. I used both without changing anything on both of those progams other than click the go button. The DVD's will play in Itunes but it won't allow me to drag them to the Ipod. They are in the Video folder in Itunes. What in the wild, wild world of sports am I do'in wrong? I assume it's something stupid because the device is stellar. Hope someone out there can lend us a hand.
    Kind Regards,
    Julias

  • I want to use my home dvd player to burn dvds/cds onto my MacBook Air. Please help!?

    I want to use my home dvd player to burn dvds/cds onto my MacBook Air. I have an hdmi cord with thunderbolt connector. Where do I go from here?

    Apps for OSX aren't in iTunes: they are in the App Store in your Applications folder. The payment method is the one registered in iTunes. There's no app actually called Yoga Studio, though there are several Yoga apps. There is an iOS app called Yoga Studio but it appears to have no OSX equivalent, though I haven't done a detailed search.

    I Am unable to insert a DVD/CD into my MacBook Pro. How do I overcome this?

    Are you certain that there is nothing inside such as a mini DVD?  Does the DVD drive appear dead?  You may have to have it examined at an Apple store genius bar.

    can I install the leopard dvd even if my macbook doesn't have a dvd drive?
    I am unsure if I should buy the dvd

    All Macbooks shipped with drives that read DVDs.
    If you want to install Leopard and your drive is broken, you will need to use an external drive or a disc image on an external hard drive.

    lost my application dvd that came with macbook pro, early 2011. any alternatives to get the applications in that??

    I'm not sure how this is an iTunes issue, but anyway, other than buying the apps from the Mac App Store (note that iDVD and iWeb are not available via the App Store), the only alternative is to call Apple support and give them the serial number of your Mac. They can usually sell you a new disk set for a reasonable fee.

  • Why can't I burn a dvd disc on my macBook pro ?

    I transferred some video footage to "iMovie' for editing and when I tried to burn it to a dvd disc, there was no option for that operation. All of the choices were to transfer it to You Tube, of facebook.Can I burn a dvd disc on my macBook pro laptop or not?

    If you have a macbook with internal or USB external Superdrive, insert disk, and an option appears for burning files.
    Otherwise drop the movie into a folder and click on the settings button of the folder and choose "burn .......to disk"

    Everything seemed to work fine after moving everything over from my old MacBook Pro at first but I cannot run Outlook 2011 for Mac.  The logo displays briefly and then the app closes.  It never really even gets anything loaded other than the little logo.

    Try removing and reinstalling Outlook
