Problems downloading the new DVD Studio Pro update.

Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem/message when trying to download the new DVDSP update?;
'You appear to have already downloaded the DVD Studio Pro update.'
This also happened on the last updates that were released.
There is a workaround that I know of that I had to use last time but it seems strange that this is occuring. Has anyone else had any issues with this update (or the last for that matter)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as Apple Tech would not help me because I am on a Volume Licence and the Apple Store that I purchased it through has not given me any help.
Thanks
Carlo

I can get around this problem by using software update to download the updates and then use the downloaded file to update the machines but I would really like the ability to download the updates as a standalone dmg file.
I am running 20 systems on an airport network that will freeze up if I do the updates online the best i can do is 3 at once to avoid serious lag.
Being able to download them seperately was always my first choice so i could update the machines regardless of being conected to the net or not. The workaround that I am using only downloads the package file and it seems there is the possibility of them being corrupted or damaged over time (moving from server to drives to media to computers etc).
I still want to know why it thinks I have downloaded them already, it doesn't make any sense.

Can't download the latest DVD Studio Pro 4.0.3

Hi,
I don't really need it, but is quiet a nuisance that
I downloaded it, lost it and now can get it back.
I have got a legal copy of Final Cut Studio (Upgraded from Production Suite), the licence number and everthing.
any idea?

Hi,
I checked my permissions and all was ok.
Then I imported the exported QT movie and tried to delete the Compressed m2v movie - Crash.
after a few attempts I was able to delete it and replace it with the exported QT movie and it works now.
hmmmm

When trying to download the new 10.5.3 update

When trying to download the new 10.5.3 update, I am told the older version of software update cannot be removed and to contact support?

Just a thought, try using the search feature of these forums, this issue has been addressed multiple times. Also, it's faster than other user's asking you to provide more details of the actual issue.

Having a problem with audio in DVD Studio Pro with the finished copy

I am making a DVD of a clip I had transferred from a mini DV. All the audio was present when I transferred it. I had then turned it into an MPEG movie format (.mpg). When I play that clip there is audio. Then I compressed the file on Compressor. I selected the file format by choosing Apple > DVD > DVD: Best Quality 90 minutes > MPEG-2 6.2Mbps 2-pass (the clip was about an hour and 20min long) and compressed the clip. I then opened DVD studio pro, made a menu, and then added this new file (MPEG-2 6.2Mbps 2-pass). I burned the DVD and put it into my DVD player. The picture was great and everything worked fine except there was no audio. How do I get audio into this DVD? I have tried compressing my .mpg file into the Dolby Digital Professional 2.0 option that is under DVD: Best Quality 90 minutes, but when I try importing that into DVD studio pro it a message pops up saying "Incompatible format." It might also help mentioning that when I saw the file size on the Dolby Digital Professional 2.0 after compressing it, it said Zero kb. How would I get audio onto this DVD? I would really appreciate your help, I tried to be as detailed as I could. This DVD is for a family member and is urgent, so anyone who can help would greatly be appreciated. Thank you so much.

If you don't want to go back and recapture the tape you need to understand that MPG files need to be "DeMuxed" to extract the audio. My recommendation would be to use the free MPEG Streamclip and then select your MPG to be Demuxed into an AIFF file. That AIFF file will then need to be converted to an AC3 file, similar to what you did with the video.

HUGE PROBLEM with sound in DVD Studio Pro 4

As I imported the soundtrack of the footage that I have (which is about 1h16), the combinaison of my video & the sound is over 4,7 Gig. Therefor, I can't burn it on a DVD.
I exported the audio in a lower quality to finally obtain a size of around 210mb for the sound (which was 844mb BEFORE!!!)
BUT, As soon as I add it to the timeline, the size goes up again to 855mb encoded!!!!!! I even tried which a compressed AIFF file of 50mb and the sound is still encoded to the same size, 855mb!!!
Where and how can I change the encoding of the audio in DVD Studio Pro so that I can lower the quality just a little bit so but my video and the audio will fit on a standard 4,7 Gig DVD!
Thanks!!

Drop your aiff files into Compressor, and elect Dolby 2 with -31 normalization no film compression.
I don't know what you mean by "I exported the audio in a lower quality."
Audio must be 48/16 stereo aiff/pcm before it is encoded in Compressor to Dolby 2.
What are your target and maximum bit rates for video in Compressor? Are you export video and audio separately before encoding in Compressor

HT5957 I can not download the new 7.0.2 update to my ipad. I have tried several times. It stalls out. I have tried restarting the ipad ... No success with that either.

I can not download the current update, 7.0.2 to my ipad 2. There is no error message it just fails to install. I have tried to download it several times with no success. Also I have tried a restart and that has not made any difference.

Is anyone having problems with the new Xerox printer driver update from Apple? My 8700S is no longer working with QuarkXPress.

I allowed a System Update that included a Xerox Printer update. I am running a MacPro 10.6.8 with Quark 8.5.1 and a Xerox ColorQube 8700S. EVERY was working perfectly before the "update" but afterwards anything sent to the printer from Quark would stall the printer. I went to the Xerox website and downloaded their Printer Driver and tried again. Now I could print from Quark but I can NOT get to the printer window to change the type of paper, etc. So, the problem still persists.
Should I try going into Time Machine and trying to find the Xerox Print Driver in the Library folder?
Should I upgrade the whole system software? (I wouldn't mind doing that AFTER I get this magazine off to the commerical printer)
Should I upgrade to Quark 9?
Any help here would be apprciated.
Thanks - Rob

As a general rule of thumb, I never install updates until I read its info and I am having problems with my current software. I hide the updates until I need them. Usually this happens when I update or upgrade my os. I don't fix what ain't broken is my golden rule.
It is possible that you need to update or upgrade Quark in order for your newer printer driver to work. First I would try the following....
Disconnect all peripherals from your computer.
Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
Select your language.
Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
Select Disk Utility.
Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
Click Repair Disk.
Restart your computer when done.
Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963 and restart your computer.
If your printer does not work afterwards, update or upgrade Quark. If that does not work, contact the printer manufacturer.

HT4623 Why am I always having to reboot my iPad since I downloaded the new 7.1.1 update?? This is not cool!!!

This is not cool

Thank you SO MUCH. I can't believe that I was so stupid as not to think of this. !!!!!!
Problem solved. MANY THANKS. have updated the software now. Very grateful to you.

Should I download the new Safari 3.1 update?

Seems like everyone is complaining about problems...

Hi
Problems relate mostly to 3rd party add-ons. So far, SAFT and SafariStand have been updated for 3.1 compatibility. PicLens is still pending. Not sure if Inquisitor is compatible, as I haven't installed 3.1 yet (I'm waiting for the PicLens update).
Another problem noted is with G-Mail. If you don't use GMail, then no concern here.
Otherwise, its a good upgrade. Plus you get a more secure browser thanks to the Security Update released yesterday by Apple.

Am I just dense? Or is DVD Studio Pro 1.5 really hard to use?

I got Final Cut Pro 3 and DVD Studio Pro 1.5 at the same time at the end of 2002. I always use iDVD to burn discs because I can't seem to figure out Studio Pro 1.5, but I had no problem figuring out Final Cut Pro. Here is my dilemma: I have a couple of projects that are going to exceed the 1 hour limit of iDVD (the version I have at least), and I was wondering if I should upgrade to Studio Pro 4. This of course would mean having to upgrade Jaguar to Tiger and also upgrading FCP. Is the new DVD Studio Pro much more user friendly? Is the newest iDVD able to burn up to 2 hours on a disc? Would I be better off just buying Tiger and iLife to get iDVD?

Hal an David have it covered
That being said I am one of the ones who really liked DVD SP 1.5.2, followed by DVD SP 3. DVD SP 2 did make sharper menus it seemed. DVD SP 4 added a couple of things that were good but not critical for most things.
DVD SP 4 is now only available (unless you can find an older version of 4) as DVD SP 4.1 Universal Binary. It has some issues and so does Tiger (again this is what I have found so far) I take the tact that if it ain't broke don't fix it - and when I do upgrades on OSes or software I first do it on machines that I do not HAVE to have working properly (or on another boot disc in a tower.)
In other words be careful stepping into this. Do not recall when iDVD started to support Dual Layer projects, but the new one does, with the caveat that I do not recall if you can burn DL to external burners or not (which is not an issue anyway if you take a look at
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/image_to_diskstone.html)
TIger and iLife will be less costly that the new Suite (if that becomes your only option) and all the iApps in and of themselves I like alot for the most part - iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD and Garageband [iTunes is free, the website software does not do much for me], so if you are comfortable with iDVD it may be the way to go as a less costly step. At some point you may like the to step into DVD SP.
All that being said there is an upgrade to the full suite
http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio
off of Final Cut Pro 3 for $699 still available for the next few weeks
http://www.apple.com/universal/crossgrade/
And the Final Cut side was a real good upgrade off of FCP 3 in terms of what was added, really like Motion and Soundtrack and DVD SP is still there. You will need Tiger (not sure though of all the specs on your machine and whether it will support all the software and/or features in the software, depends on processor, video card etc.- but my guess is you should be able to use it somewhat, I run the suite, other than Motion, on a tiBook 1ghz)
And DVD SP 4.1, even with some of its issue, is still good, you just got to be aware of one or two things, that hopefully Apple is working on fixing anyway.

Adding a 2nd subtitle track to new timeline in DVD Studio Pro

I have made a video with English subtitles in FCP and Using DVD Studio Pro. Now it is time to add spanish subtitles and also enter redited timeline. I haven't managed to find a way to import the english subtitle track into a new project, or export it over to a new project. Apple training program for DVDSP has no guidance. Anyone know how to avoid having to renter manually english subtitles? Thanks, Laura

The subtitles are made in DVD Studio Pro, not FCP Pro. It is easy to add a 2nd subtitle track to an existing project. What I need to do is have a NEW project so I can use my NEW re-edited timeline. The question is how do i copy/import/export my english track that is already in a .dspproj file, so I can use it in a new project (it is a new timeline) to create a new edition of my dvd. Again, the subtitles are not in FCP. Is there really no way to use the english subtitles already created in DVD STU Pro. As I said, there are no istructions in the help manual, nor are there in the Apple DVD Studio Pro training book/dvd.
Thanks, Laura

You an probably find older copies of DVDSP on ebay. But the current version is available for purchase from apple only as part of the FC Suite.
