Superdrive Is not changing region

I bought the Apple Superdrive. I allrady changed region 5 times and now I cant see any Movies .
So is there a way of me seeing movies that are other regions without having to change the Superdrive Region?

First try VLC.
<http://videolan.org>
For some brands of drives, it will play a DVD even if the DVD's region does not match the drive's.
If VLC doesn't help, you could buy another Apple Superdrive and switch drives when you need to play a DVD from a different region.

  • SuperDrive DVD region not changing despite having one change left.

    My DVD superdrive won't change back to 'Region 2' after watching a 'Region 1' DVD. When I insert the 'Region 2' disc the pop up menu comes up asking if I want to change the region to match the disc. It says that this is the last time I can change the region but when I click the option to change it nothing happens and eventually the SuperDrive winds down.
    Mid 2009 15" MacBook Pro - Mountain Lion (10.8).

    I don't think so because when I inserted the Region 1 disc it said I had two changes left. So that's one change to change from R2 to R1 then the last change to change back to R2. It quite clearly states in the image above that I have one last attempt.

  • My dvd player will not let me change regions, it just quits when i do, now its stuck on region 1. Any thoughts how i can solve this problem or get round it in some way?

    Usually if you have some kind of hardware failure there is some beeping during POST or most motherboards now have LED indicators to produce and error message based on the type of failure
    So if its bad memory, not place properly, mismatched, processor not inserted properly, mismatched voltage or voltage connector not present etc it beeps or generates the error id.
    Power supplies can be tested for failure. There are some walk throughs for testing just them with a switch, paperclip or a jumper (I'd suggest not doing this if you are not familiar with the dangers of electricity).
    Memory can be tested with memory diagnostics programs like Memtest+
    Processors can overheat if the proper precautions have not been taken usually you will get a POST beep or error code for that.
    If the motherboard has no response then do the basics first:
    Check power connectors and power supply. Once you determine that is not the case move on to other items like graphics cards in all the way or memory.

  • In the advanced tab of languages and Region the time and date formats will not change

    For a certian Application I am using I need to change the format of the Time and Date. I had no problems in Mountain Lion. In the advanced tab of languages and Region the time and date formats will not change. I need the date format to read as 01/01/14 and time format to read 13:00. As I said this was easily done in Mountain Lion and all previous Apple OS. I suspect it's an issue with in the OS.

    You're right, it has been that way for a long time. I've never bothered reporting it as a bug since it's simple enough to deal with, but reporting it would be a reasonable thing to do.

    I want to change region format back to Cambodia, but it's dose not exists in format list. So how can I do?

    There never has been a Cambodia region format for iPhones.  It had to have been set for something else.  Try other available formats such as Vietnam or Laos.

    I can not change the region of DVD for region 4 (Brazil) what do I do? Help me. The drive is a MAT**bleep**A BD-CMB UJ141ES notebook and is a satellite Toshiba M645.

    You might try AnyDVD. It's not a free solution, but might provide you a way around the region restricions.
    There are other software solutions, you might start by reading or searching at the doom9.org forums.

  • I want to change regions and buy a UK TV program.  iTunes says my account is set up in the US and I can't do that.  Why not?

    I just spent the afternoon setting up a new Apple ID because Apple told me I can't buy British programming after I found out how to change regions.  Since I had signed up for a season of a program, I had to wait until it downloaded to change regions.  So the new Apple ID is ready to go!  I change regions! I find my program from the UK - Guess what? Apple says my Apple ID is set up for the US so I can't purchase in the UK?  Is there an answer out there?  Somebody help me, please!    Margold

    What country are you in ? You can only buy from your own country's store - to be able to buy from the UK store you will need to be here in the UK with a UK billing address on your account. If you aren't in the UK then you can try requesting that the series be added to you country's store, but ultimately it's the TV company that will have to grant Apple a license to do so : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • I cant change payment method in Apple Ipad, because it tells me bla bla u had problems with billing bla bla. I DO NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS with billing bla bla. WHY i cant change my payment card????????? WHY I CANNOT CHANGE REGION? FROM UK TO RUSSIAN?????

    Cant change details, cant change region, cant download apps, cant change payment card, cant upload apps.

    Apps are always associated with the Apple ID and password used to download or purchase them. If you have begun using a different Apple ID, when those old apps require an update, you will have to enter the old Apple ID and password that used use to originally download those apps.
    You can stop this requirement by deleted those old apps and purchase or download them again with your current Apple ID.

  • Adobe kicks me out right before purchase, says I have to change region. How?

    I just want to buy Photoshop Elements, but adobe will not let me. Right before purchase I am always kicked out, saying I have to change regions, but I cannot find anywhere to do that. I've tried logging in from adobe.no (I am in Norway), but that didn't help either. I can't find anywhere to change regions in my account or profile either.  I tried getting hold of the chat-support, to no luck, I cannot get an answer on email, so I consider this the last try before I find another program. Would really appreciate advice.

    Tell this "friend" and their parents that it is up to them to fix the device or buy you a new one.
    Then as tonefox suggested, find a new friend.
    In the future, your friends keep their hands off your devices... it's not that difficult of a concept.

  • How to change "Regional Language" in iPad air

    Hello, I use an iPad air with iOS 7.0.4.
    I was wondering how to change the regional language in ipad air. I mean exactly what I said, I know how to change a region, and I know how to change the language. I need to change the regional language. Whenever I choose my own religion, the date, time, battery etc. are all shown in my region's language instead of English. This is irritating since the time 'am' and 'pm' translations are stupid as he'll. Furthermore, the text is harder to read because of the font.
    All said and done, I need to completely irradiate that language from displaying while not changing the region. Plus, I do think that the regional settings option should be in the settings (like no matter which region you are in, you should be able to choose the language, date time format, temperature in c or f etc.)

    It's not possible yet to do what you want (unless by chance you can pick another region which natively combines the language with the other settings you want).  To ask Apple to fix this, use

  • Change region from EMEA to FCC on AP

    Is it possible to change region from ESTI to FCC on AIR-LAP1131AG-E-K9 ? If yes would you give me clue how to do that ?

    No. For the AP to join you would have to enable an EMEA country code too. Just keep in mind when you have multiple country codes enabled you may not get all of the available channels or power levels.

  • Ip address not changing

    Hi All
    I am new to iMac's for about a year now.  I had a question about ip addresses not changing.  I have various devices in the house and when I change wireless networks they automatically update their ip address.  Not so so for the iMac running Yosemite.  It seems to have stopped working some months ago and I have been getting around this by changing the ip address manually in Network Preferences.  This is becoming pain as you can imagine especially when other non familiar people use the computer.
    The reason for the two wireless networks in the house is because I have one network which is without VPN and the other VPN connected for streaming services.  I can't run all my regional services from the VPN connected network.
    Thanks in advance for any help someone can give.
    Regards
    Vivian

  • Can I revert my calendar to begin on Monday without changing regions?

    Calendar problems! I hate the fact that iOS 6 now makes my calendar begin on Sunday. I don't want to change my region. Is there any way I can revert my calendar back to begin on Monday?

    Hi Frank,
    I completely agree with you and, from a brief look at the discussion boards, it seems as though changing to a Monday-Sunday calendar view in Week and Month views is not possible in iOS without changing region setting in International to Barbados or something similar without changing languages.  It used to be possible to switch to the UK or Australia for this, but that has changed with iOS6.  However, the problem with changing regions to non-US or -UK is that it turns off turn-by-turn directions in Maps. Apple needs to add a setting directly to Calendar in iOS. Note that changing the setting in iCloud doesn't translate to a change on one's iPhone or iPad.  Infuriating!
    I'm going to submit a feedback ticket.  I hope you will do the same.  http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html and/or http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html.
