Subtle iDVD bug - buttons don't stick

I have found a subtle bug in iDVD6.0.3.
If you manually place the inter-menu arrow navigation buttons, save, then later re-open your iDVD project and "update" it because you have edited the underlying iMovie project inbetween, the inter-menu arrow navigation buttons return to their default position for whatever theme you've used. They don't stick in your manually placed position. All chapter buttons stay in the right spots, manually placed or otherwise.
There is nothing you can do to stop this happening.
Not a fatal bug, but annoying enough.

Not exactly sure why this sometimes happens. I find that if I don't quit the application then I'm ok. However sometimes after quitting and saving and reopening these buttons do return to their default positions.
Go ahead and try this: drag and drop the plist for iDVD to the trash.
Quit iDVD. Locate a file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and get rid of it. iDVD will create a new one the next time it runs. Empty the trash and restart if needed.
-->/Users/YourName**/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iDVD.plist

  • My screen brightness control buttons don't work windows 8

    my screen brightness control buttons don't work?
    the light in the mute button is always on when NOT on mute?
    Have set up Win8 3 TIMES but get always same bug agan 
    Hope someone can help 

    Hello smarisig. I understand you are not able to control screen brightness from the keyboard on Windows 8. By chance, did you upgrade to Windows 8 from Windows 7? I have located an online forum that contains troubleshooting on this issue: http://thedailybuggle.com/forum/unable-control-screen-brightness-windows-8-a-200.html
    The person who posted the issue on this forum had upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 8, and then this issue occurred. That is the reason I asked if this Windows 8 was upgraded. Regardless, follow the troubleshooting presented and it could resolve the issue for you. If not, let me know and I will continue to research the issue in the meantime. I'm only here to help!

  • IMovie "Create iDVD Project" Button Opens Previous, not Current Movie/Proj

    I updated my non-Intel iMac to Leopard a year or so ago. Since then, my wife says when she works on a project in iMovie and is done she clicks on Create iDVD Project button and when iDVD opens it opens the last movie she was working on (over a year ago) before we upgraded to Leopard. iDVD does not open the movie that she is currently working on in iMovie. This worked before we switched to Leopard. I have 10.5, iDVD 5 & iMovie 5. Is this a compatibility issue with Leopard? She told me about this when we switched to Leopard but I ignored her. Now I have to find the answer.

    I have seen report that iMovie 5 won't even run under Leopard.
    What you might try is avoid clicking on the "Create iDVD project" button in iMovie. Instead you save the project and quit iMovie. Launch iDVD, create a new project and drag the iMovie project from the Finder into the iDVD window.

  • Does someone know when our movie project and finally our iDVD project is done, can we erase the clip that we had imported in iMovie without danger?  Or we have to keep the clip in iMovie until the DVD are burn?

    Hi
    Most processes in Non destructive Video editing is based on that the raw-material is safe and intact. So by trashing it most things can or will go wrong.
    So e.g. in iMovie project - there is NO Movie - just a small text document refering to Your raw-material, audio files and photos (within or not in iPhoto Library) on how they are to act together to Play Your Movie.
    And by changing any of them the Movie project will be affected or destroyed.
    reg. iDVD there is also a link back to iMovie - Most famous to set of the iDVD BUG !
    To do that - one starts a new iDVD project and add movies etc. Then find something i one movie in need to be adjusted. Closing iDVD and returning to iMovie and doing this. Then when back to iDVD it will notice and ask You to Up-date or Cancel. Neither works. The iDVD project is harmed. All Chapters now point to Chapter One and more strange things happens.
    the medicine I use - I start a brand new iDVD Project and re-do it and hopefully not fine any more to be fixed in the movie.
    This indicates the strong link inbetween iDVD and iMovie and I would not touch anything in iMovie till DVD is Burned and Ready AND Plays Well !

  • "Archive" and "View" buttons don't work after folio update

    Hi all,
    I have a subscription to the professional edition and I have built a custom viewer app for Android. I have built about 10 folios and at first download all is ok, the folios are displayed without problems and the app works fine except for one issue: "Archive" button don't work, when I tap on it, near folio cover, nothing happens, the folio does not disappear from folios list.
    But the serious problem occurs when I perform a folio update from Folio Producer ('Update content' from adobe dashboard DPS): both "Archive" and "View" buttons stop working, nothig happens when I tap tap on them and I am forced to uninstall and reinstall the application on tablet (.apk file) to see folio changes in my custom viewer.
    This is very annoying as well as time expensive.
    Tablet is Samsun Galaxy Tab SII with Android 3.2.
    Any help is appreciated.

    To the best of my knowledge, the SII is a smartphone and not a tablet device, and the official claim is (correct me if I'm wrong) that DPS on Android is corrently tablet only.
    Anyway, it seems strange to me so checked and found out that even though the DPS apps are not available when you search for them in the Play Market of a smartphone you can still force load them to the phone and run them.
    I've done it on both a Samsung SIII running Android 4.0.4 and a Samsung GT-I9070 running Android 2.3.6 (I currently don't have a device running Android 3.2)
    The interface is so small that it's hardly possible to use it, but it works.

  • My Finder is going crazy.  Keep getting a message saying it quit unexpectedly and asking if I want to restore windows, but I can't get it to stop.  buttons don't work.

    My Finder is going crazy.  Keep getting a message saying it quit unexpectedly and asking if I want to restore windows, but I can't get it to stop.  buttons don't work.

    Something else you can try.
    In Finder hold down the option/alt key while selecting the Go menu item. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Restart and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop. 
    If the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer ones.
    If you want to make your user library permanently visible, run the below command in Applications/Terminal.
    chflags nohidden ~/Library/
    You will need to do that after any updates.

  • Flash buttons don't work

    I created my template in Dreamweaver and 9 other pages from
    the template. Now I inserted flash buttons in the original template
    and linked them to all other pages. Buttons work in the original
    template but not in any of other pages, even though I updated the
    pages with all the changes. What am I doing wrong??? I am losing my
    mind here.
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Flash buttons don't work in any real sense of the word,
    anyhow. Why are you
    using them?
    If you want to use Flash for navigation, consider this -
    1. Some people don't have Flash installed - what do they do?
    2. Search engines don't parse Flash links - your site will
    not be spidered
    3. Screen assistive devices don't parse Flash links - what
    will those users
    do?
    4. DW cannot maintain links within a Flash movie, so if you
    move or rename
    a linked file, your navigation will break - what will you do?
    It's usually a very bad idea for these reasons...
    This problem is due to the fact that you are placing the
    buttons into a
    Template file. In this case, and assuming you want to inherit
    all the
    problems, make the links to the buttons ROOT RELATIVE.

  • Scroll bar, back/forward buttons and home buttons don't work

    I use Windows 7 and Firefox 6.0.1. The navigation buttons don't respond to mouseover and work only if the menu bar is selected.
    I don't want the menu bar because it reduces screen space. How can I get those buttons to work without the menu bar?

    Sounds like you have a corrupt '''places.sqlite''' file or corrupt '''localstore.rdf'''. Please see these articles which explain how to resolve the problem:<br><br>

  • IPad 2 Rotation, Sleep, and Volume Buttons Don't Work.

    I have an iPad 2 running 7.1.1 (11D201) and just yesterday the sleep sleep and volume buttons don't work, and the screen won't rotate at all.  I have already tried the following:
    Switched the Lock Rotation/Mute settings in General
    Power cycling it
    Held the sleep and menu button to reset it (the button worked for that at least)
    Done a network reset
    Reset All Settings and restored from backup
    Reset All Settings and restored from iCloud
    Erase All Content and Settings and restored from backup
    Erase All Content and Settings and restored from iCloud
    If anyone has any OTHER suggestions besides what I've already tried, I am all ears.  Thanks.

    Go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without be charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • Click wheel and buttons don't work on 5th gen.

    I have had my iPod for about half a year and for some reason my iPod buttons don't work. If I move the hold button it turns on but none of the other buttons work. It charges and everything. Does anyone know what to do?
    5th generation   Windows XP  

    There isn't any problem with your ipod, theres just a different way of going about when you put video games on your ipod. First, plug in your ipod. when your ipod icon appears on the left side where it usually does, click on it. Look at the top on the ipod screen that appears. The screen should give u info about your ipod. At the top look for an icon that says games. Pictures and a few other things are there but click on games. Once that screen appears click on the check mark that say sync games. After that it is pretty self explanatory. GoodLuck

  • My Microsoft Intellimouse back and forward buttons don't work in Firefox, but they do in IE and in Windows Explorer. It used to work, now it just stopped. Why and how can I fix this?

    Forward and back buttons don't work in Firefox but do everywhere else.

    Make sure that you set those buttons to the default action in your mouse driver software (Control Panel > Mouse or specific Intellimouse driver software).

  • My earphones mic and volume buttons don't work ever since the iOS 8.1 update! Please help me. One discussion person says they bought a new pair and THEY don't work either. What do I do? I'm about to have a breakdown!

    I rely heavily on my earphones because well... I'm lazy but they don't work. They work on my friend's iPhone who hasn't updated yet but I've updayed and the mic and volume buttons don't work. Please make a correct update!

    Nope, still same problem. I did an install, didn't work. Then I completely removed my IDT driver, restarted, installed the driver, restarted, same problem.
    When I troubleshoot my audio it always asks me which one to troubleshoot. It only works if I do one of the "Speakers / HP - IDT" but I don't know why it has so many devices listed with the same name.
    Also, after I troubleshoot and I can hear audio, if I go to "Manage audio devices" it still shows that no audio device is installed, which is why the webinars won't work.

  • Portege M750 and Win8.1 Pro -tablet buttons don't work

    Hi
    I'm having difficulties installing the tablet buttons in WINDOWS 8.1 Pro. Everything else works, perfectly.
    In Windows 8 Pro this buttons worked nicely, but now, after a clean install of Windows 8.1 Pro two of the buttons don't work. The buttons are the Toshiba assist button and the presebtation button. I've tried to configure them in Toshiba assist software but nothing happens.
    I'm sure I've installed all drivers that made wverything work with Windows 8. As anyone tryed this and add success?

    > I'm sure I've installed all drivers that made wverything work with Windows 8
    Windows 8.1 is not Windows 8 and many of Toshiba Win 8 drivers and tools dont work or are not fully compatible with Win 8.1
    As far as I know the Toshiba does not support Win 8.1 on this Portege M750.
    This means that no Win 8.1 drivers will be released and in such case some notebook features like the control buttons could not work properly.
    Fact is that using Windows Vista or Win 7, such buttons were controlled by Value Added Package. This package does not exist for Win 8.1 and has been replaced by other software called Toshiba System Driver
    So in case you want to try to get the buttons to work, I recommend checking this with Toshiba System Driver

  • Clean Install of Windows 8 & Some buttons Don't Work

    I bought this PC with dead Hard Drive. I installed new Drive and Windows 8 from USB.It only installed as 32bit OS and I know it should have been 64bit. Has 4Gb memory installed.Property screen shows:  4.00GB (2.97GB usable)(32bit OS, x64 Processor).   Some of my buttons Don't Work nor does my Microphone. I have tried verifying all drivers but none fix buttons. No errors listed in Device Manager. Any help is Appreciated.

    Wow that is so a "Canned" response. Can't install Windows7 on a system that never had 7. This unit was made originally for Vista. And even those do not have drivers I could use. Now if there were device manufacturer information you could give me about my unit then maybe I can get the buttons to work. The most important is the Microphone and Volume/mute buttons that need to work then you could help me.The Dell site will give you an exact biuld list when serial or Tag number is provided which help Identify device manufacturer so user can goto their site to get generic drivers to work with their Dell PC regardless of what version of OS is currently installed.So if you can really help here is the PC Info»HP TouchSmart IQ524 Desktop PC
