Someone please help. It's about DVD playback.
OK, so I MADE a DVD on iDVD with my MacBook and I burn it with a "Maxwell DVD -RW DATA - Video" disc.
So after my MacBook succesfully burned the DVD. I took it out and played the DVD on my old old DVD Player in the living room. Played fine, everything was great(Except one of the movies I had on there was all blue; no other colors, something must of gone wrong with the burning because in the iDVD project that section played normal). So I played it on my roommates computer, he has a old Toshiba running Windows XP, and it played perfectly(except that chapter that played in all blue). I take it back to my MacBook to play it and I insert the disc. The DVD program comes up but nothing happens. I click the play button and it says "Disc is not supported" or something like that.
I do not get why it doesnt play, especially if I made the DVD on the same computer and it played on my old dvd player and on my roommates old computer.
Can someone please help me?
Thanks a lot.
hiya - if this is a new mac (and you haven't played another disc yet) try putting in a bought dvd from your collection - it should then ask you to select a region
once you have selected your appropriate region (remember that you only get so many changes) - try inserting your idvd disc and see how you get on - it should now recognise it and play fine
let me know - it did work for me...
good luck

Haven't been able to use itunes for at least 2 months now. I went to upload a newly downloaded album and now itunes freezes on "determining gapless playback information" every single time! Then i have to hard reset my mac every time as well, which i have done a good 30+ times now. Someone please help me out, it would be much appreciated. i just want to listen to my music again. Apple support is useless and just want money when it's there fault it has happened anyway by applying that useless 'determining' non sense. Please help!

I suspect you are correct. I would suggest you bring it to a repair facility that may have better diagnostic tools, preferably an Apple store genius bar.

Ok, see, i was dowloading some songs off of http://www.youtube-mp3.org. I dragged the songs into my itunes library, but when i looked, they weren't in there. so i looked at my ipod and the songs i downloaded were on it! i dont know how either! i tried to back up my downloaded songs so i could restore it to see if that would help, but there wasn't an option for me to back up my ipod when i right clicked on it. i looked atsome of the other forums about the "AppData" solution. it said to delete the corrupted file if there was one, but i dont know what to look for. can someone please help me? this is driving me crazy.

Hi, I am wondering why my iphone won't send pictures through messages, I have MMS on and I have tried sending it with 3G on aswell and still doesn't work. Someone please help me :)
Hey lozza567,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues sending MMS messages. The following resource may provide a solution:
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
Issues with sending and receiving MMS
You will need these to send and receive MMS:
- An iPhone 3G or later.
- iOS 3.1 or later.
- A cellular data connection. MMS isn't available if you are using only Wi-Fi.
- A domestic MMS plan from your cellular provider. You may need an international messaging plan to send MMS to an international contact. Contact your carrier for more information.
- A roaming MMS when using a cellular provider's network different from your billing cellular provider's network. Learn more about roaming and contact your carrier for more information.
To resolve issues with sending and receiving MMS, follow these steps first
1. Go to Settings and turn airplane mode off.
2. Go to Settings > Messages and turn MMS Messaging on.
3. Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Cellular Data on.
4. Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Data Roaming on if you are roaming on a cellular provider network different from your billing provider's network.
5. Verify that you have a cellular data connection in the status bar at the top left of your iPhone.
6. Go to Settings and turn Wi-Fi off. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify that you have a data connection. Turn Wi-Fi back on to continue using Wi-Fi for other features. If your cellular data connection isn't available, follow these steps.
7. Verify that you can send and receive SMS. If you are unable to send and receive SMS, see the "Issues with sending and receiving SMS" section, above.
8. MMS may not be available while on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports.
9. Restart your iPhone.
10. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
11. Reseat your SIM card.
If you are still unable to send or receive MMS, follow these steps
1. Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
2. Go to Settings > Messages and turn on group messaging if you are sending a group message.
3. Make sure that you are using the area code with the contact's phone number. When sending messages internationally, you also need the contact's international code.
4. Verify a "Pay as you go" MMS plan has enough available balance. Contact your carrier if unsure of your MMS plan or available balance.
5. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
6. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact from the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
7. Back up and restore your iPhone as new.
8. If your carrier has recently ported your phone number, the porting process may not be complete. Contact your carrier to confirm that the porting process is complete.
9. Contact your carrier to verify that you are provisioned to send SMS and are in an area with cellular coverage.
10. Contact your carrier to verify that there are no blocks or filters placed on your wireless account preventing you from sending SMS.
11. Your carrier may require APN settings to be modified to use MMS. Learn more about when you should adjust APN settings.
Thanks,
Matt M. -
(sigh) Can someone please help??? I'm ready to throw in the towel on my SECOND Mic
So my first Zen Micro froze on me. No amount of tech support could save it. I returned it and received a new replacement. Within days my replacement had begun to freeze, and I would bravely pull out the battery and reboot it. I think (keep your fingers crossed) that I've unstuck whatever that bug was. NOW - my new issue - the dreaded "No license to play - please sync from PC" error. So, reluctantly, I downloaded the 2..05 Beta firmware, which as far as I understood it, resolved this issue specifically. After a successful download and install, I rebooted in hopes that it would be fixed. Well, it's still giving me the error. I cannot for the life of me figure out what I am doing wrong. And I am down to one download on all of my Napster 2 Go songs (due to the same problem on my first Micro). So I have three choices:
) Ask all of you what I can to do get this resolved easily.
2) Delete my entire library, and use my last sync license and load it all onto my Micro again (which is a good hour project)
3) Gi've up an buy an iPod. I am pulling out my hair in frustration, and I'm telling you... I always felt the same way you all did about Apple and the iPod. But the reality is, NONE of my friends have my harware/software issues. All I ask for is two consecuti've weeks of listening to my MP3 player without license issues, frozen hard dri'ves, reboots, pulling out the battery numerous times, etc. I just want to listen.... turn it off.... and know that it will turn back on again when I want it to.
Someone please help, and convince me that I should give this one last shot!!megasister wrote:

Well, it's perfectly understandable that your iPod-bearing friends don't have issues with N2Go, because they can't use it!
So I guess you have to determine whether your problems lie with the actual player or the N2Go service.
Do you have problems playing/synching songs you've ripped yourself or that you've bought from a service other than N2Go? -

I updated my iPad mini to ios 7.0.2 couple days ago. Everything was fine until yesterday. I noticed that it seemed to have a mind of its own. It kept opening and closing app. I'm not sure what to don to fix this problem. I've tried restoring my iPad mini but that didn't help. Can someone please help me?
Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
If no joy...
Reset all settings
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
If the issue persists...

Yes, you have WD software installed REMOVE IT !!
WD has warned its customers about their huge mistake that their software doesnt work on Mavericks and causes data loss.
(also dont use WD drives anymore)

hhi guys
my video recording sounds not working at all but it's working for other things such as music. I've tried to clear my sound thing near the earphone hole but had no success can someone please help me out?Had an Iphone 4 for about 3 months now. This happened to the first one I had and they ended up having to replace it at the apple store just a couple weeks ago 6/2. It happened again last night to my new one. This time i was able to correct it by going to itunes, backing up the phone to icloud, and then restoring the software. Mine did not work with voice memo, but did work with headphones plugged in, and would also work on speaker. I could hear callers but they couldn't hear me. I had purchased a new case (lifeproof case at $79.99) because it comes with plugs that cover the headphone jack, and the charging port, and is also waterproof. I heard that the root cause is due to lint, dirt, etc getting inside the headphone jack. Well, must be something else. It's a 10 days old phone, and has been in this overpriced case the whole time, and I have not used the headphones. I hope this doesn't keep happening.
