Once iDVD has been used to create a DVD, how can I make another copy?

This may be a rookie question, but because of my bad history with computers, I generally don't like to use too much of my hard drive. I have a lot of family videos in iMovie now, and I want to be able to make a DVD and delete the originals from my hard drive. I also want to be able to make another copy of the DVD later.
Is there a way to do that with just the Mac or is something else needed...since it seems that I am essentially burning DVDs?

If you do a 'Save As Disk Image' from within your iDVD project when you have finished it, you will be making a disk image file for that project. Disk image files are self-contained, thus all the media information is encoded into the disk image file. You can then safely delete all the photos, movies, music files that were used to create your iDVD project and still retain the ability to burn more DVDs of that project in the future.
You use Disk Utility to burn more copies.
I save disk image files for all of my iDVD projects and place those files on a large external hard drive.

  • After updating to mavericks on my MacBook, the screen keeps saying "setting up your mac." It has been like this for hours! How can I make it go faster?

    After updating to mavericks on my MacBook, the screen keeps saying "setting up your mac." It has been like this for hours! How can I make it go faster? It's has been like this for 4 hrs.

    I don't think your mac is setting up. It's stuck.
    I would:
    hold the power button until it shuts down
    unplug all peripherals
    do a safe boot (restart and hold down the shift key until you see the apple logo).
    If it starts up in a safe boot, then you can try restarting with a normal boot.
    If it does not start with a normal boot, then you probably have some incompatible third party software. Likely culprits are:
    MacKeeper
    CleanMyMac
    third-party antivirus software
    any other "cleaning" or "optimizing" or similar third party "utilities".
    A good place to start would be to uninstall any of those (while in safe mode) and then restart.

  • Safe to delete a "List Template" that has been used to create several libraries?

    In SharePoint 2010, is it safe to delete a "List Template" from the Gallery that has been used to create several libraries?  I have a user that has requested the template be deleted.  But he has used the template to create several active
    libraries that he needs to keep.  I wanted to make sure there will be no impact to those libraries and associated workflow, etc...
    Thanks! 

    Libraries created from a template are not tied to the template, so the template can be removed if it is no longer required. The same holds true for Site Templates.
    Yes, the template can be removed.
    One more thing, if you dont want delete the List template or having some fear than you can hide it from UI. in Template just hide it.
    <ListTemplate Hidden="TRUE" />
    But is you have the list definition than its different story.

    Hi Mullan13,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  Restoring your device is the solution for this issue, but if a backup was made you can also use that after the restore.  This article provides details on how to go about this:

    I realize it may not be the solution you were seeking but you should be back on track after performing these steps.

  • Somehow my iTunes app has been put into the trash.  How can I get this and all of the stuff that was in it back to my Application folder?  I try to drag it out of trash, but it won't work.

    Somehow my iTunes app has been put into the trash.  How can I get this and all of the stuff that was in it back to my Application folder?  I try to drag it out of trash, but it won't work.

    Also, when I do try to drag it out of the Trash to put it back into Applications (on the Finder sidebar), it asks me to authenticate with the administration password.  I enter it, and then a window appears saying that I can't do that because I do not have permission to modify iTunes.  Please help.

    I guess you could try but I don't believe Apple can help with activation lock issues.  They may, however, be able to determine if the Apple ID belongs to one of you and reset the password for you if you can prove your identity.
    You might want to try calling Apple by going to https://expresslane.apple.com; click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'.  In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'.  Perhaps they can help determine if it's your ID and reset the password for you (and they probably have more expertise in doing this than the Apple store).

  • How do i make another copy of a disc i have burnt in iDVD?

    Hi AndrewHISC
    We would need to cancel one of the subscriptions and then you could sign up again using another ID.
    Let me know if you wish to proceed with this.

  • I can't sign into iCloud. It says the maximum number of accounts allowed has been used. iPad is secondhand. How do I clear it of previously used accounts.

    I Can't sign into iCloud. I get a message saying that the maximum number of free accounts has been reached on my device. It is a secondhand device that had been wiped. The seller has no idea why this is happening.

    Thanks for reply. I can't get find my iPad. I've just looked in App Store to no avail. My daughter in law says I need to sign in to iCloud for that an that's not possible. My phone is an android an finding apple very difficult to use but she has phone an pad an she connected my pad to laptop to try an sort it with no luck. She also sent some docs to my kindle app through iTunes. I just tried to update Amazon an got asked for password for her email address instead of mine. This iPad is a nightmare. thanks anyway from Sally.

  • My 3rd generation ipod has been stolen i have serial number how can i track the location?

    my ipod has been stolen i have the serial number how can i find the location of the ipod?

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.
    - Apple will do nothing without a court order

    The SN will only help identify the iPod as yours IF it is recovered.

    Syncing with new computer
    1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.
