The DVD I burned doesn't include artist names

To burn my music collection onto a DVD I used Select All in the edit menu and dragged everything from the Music Folder into the Burn Folder. When I burned the songs onto a DVD the songs were all there but the artist names were missing. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Where are they missing?
What are you using to look for artist names?
What kind of files? AAC, WAV, MP3?

    When you watch on your Mac, it is at or near HD 1920x1080 pixels (about 2 megapixels), depending on the resolution of your screen. Most photos today are 5 megapixels or greater, depending on your camera, but anything over 2 megapixels must be reduced when put in a video.
    When you create a DVD, you must further reduce it to 640x480, standard definition. This is about 0.3 megapixels. iDVD will do this for you.
    You can fix by creating an HD movie in iMovie. You can Share this using Share/Export Using QuickTime to an MP4 container using the h.264 codec. You can then put this movie on your PS3 using a USB thumb drive.
    That should give you good resolution.
    (NEVER MIND, YOU SAID PS2 not PS3, my apologies)

  • 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 !

  • Can't update the info for my music (e.g., artist names, ratings) on iTunes anymore.

    I used to be able to update the info for my music (e.g., artist names, ratings) via iTunes, but it doesn't work anymore. In the past I'd change it in the music tab underneath my phone's tab. Using one band as an example, it's all spelled exactly the same on my computer in both music tabs (under my phone and on my computer), but it has various spellings still on my phone. Also, when I rate a song on my phone, it no longer shows when I plug into iTunes. I rate songs 1 star if I want to delete them later but it just doesn't work anymore. How can I fix this? Thanks in advance.

    I agree that it should work. But for some reason it does not.
    Suggestions here -> http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    However, I don't understand why you want to keep songs with incorrect info and then correct them on the phone every time you add them to the phone. Most people would want to do it one time.

  • External dvd reader/burner doesn't show in Finder

    Hi and thanks in advance for your help -
    I've just purchased an external dvd burner because the pre-super drive dvd reader in my macbook is getting a little tires. It doesn't appear in the finder, but when I check with the System Profiler or Disk Utility application, it is listed there. It's a no-brand dvd burner (from the Fnac chain in France) which appears as a "Slimtype DVD A DS8A3S", am I missing something here?
    Thanks

    That was the next question I was going to ask.
    If your external DVD player has its own power supply, you should definitely use it. If it came with 2 USB cables, it's in your best interest to use both of them with DVD player. One will be responsible for transferring data from the DVD player to the computer, along with supplying some power. The second cable will provide the rest of the power for the drive

  • The DVD I burned won't play on my DVD player

    I filmed my son playing a concert on my iPhone.  It is about an hour long.  I was able to make it into a quick time movie.  I figured out how to bun it on to a DVD throught Finder, but the DVD won't play on my DVD player or the Mac DVD player.  What am I doing wrong?

    Did you use iDVD to create the video DVD for playing? 
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com.  Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago. 
    Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them. 
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

  • After rendering a movie, the DVD project screen doesn't display

    Q. After rendering a movie, my DVD project screen won't display?

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    Sorry to hear about your mishap.
    Do you have a backup using desktop manager? If so, your data is in there. Had you recently sync'd with outlook?
    Did water get into your BB? If so, place your BB in an open container of UNCOOKED white rice and set in a warm place for a few days. Rice should absorb the water.
    Let us know!

  • Boot camp utility won't load windows 7 off usb or the dvd i burn the iso file too.

    have a copy of windows 7 i will be using with a company i have joined who are microsoft partners. The copy of windows is alrready loaded with everything needed so dnt have to worry about cd key etc.

    Thanks Svet for the tip.    One stick of ram booted and one did not.  I can't believe I had not tried that yet!!!  I have read that Windows 7 is picky about ram. 
    I had just purchased the mobo/chip combo, ram, hard drive & blu-ray/dvd from a Fry's B & M in town. It was raining here and the saved money was going to be spent! The price was right for the mobo combo.
    I did not check the compatibility of the ram and the mobo which was a mistake.  
    After purchasing, I noticed on the ram package, that it says "for i5 & i7" and have also read about timing issues with AMD boards and some certain ram sticks.
    Corsair's website has this ram listed as the value select line.  Not processor specific but lifetime warranty.  Maybe just a bum stick.
    I'm bringing the ram back tonight. (Fifteen day return policy sticker on package.)  Not sure if I should swap for another package or not.  I'm checking to see what they have that could work better. 
    Thanks again, Robert

  • Iphoto 6 shows only the last imported photos, doesn't include previous pics

    History- when I first got the computer I didn't understand how iPhoto accessed its photos, and deleted some of the content from the iPhoto folder directly - since then every once in a while I get a window that asks me to rebuild my cache - the apple employees at the genius bar told me that if I rebuilt my cache, that the thumbnails wouldn't match, and I could possibly loose photos. So I have not updated the cache in 4 years, and have not had any problems.
    Recently, my computer was slowing down, so I took it to the apple store and had them help me remove everything from the computer and placed onto an external drive, and then wiped the computer by reinstalling the system. Since then I have run iPhoto through my external hd, and did not replace ANYTHING onto the computer - everything is on the external hd. had no problems for a year. After this last upload(about a week ago) to iPhoto I noticed that it caused all previous photos (10,000+) to disappear - the only ones that were in the library were the ones I just uploaded.
    I then returned to the apple store and they used the option "create new library" to find the existing library.. but the computer was not even allowing the library file to be clicked on. So, for some reason the old photos are gone, and it wont allow the existing library to be chosen - yet there are still photos that it is accessing from that same library.
    Now when I open iPhoto, I get a message that says "In this version of iPhoto, the thumbnails have been improved. Upgrading the thumbnails will take a while, depending on the number of photos in your library. Do you want to upgrade your thumbnails now?"
    I am afraid that if I do this, it will cause the same problem of confusing the program, and not having the thumbnails match the iPhoto files, possibly causing me to loose photos.
    Is this message the reason why I can't access the old photos in the library? How would you suggest I go about correcting this problem in a way that I don't loose photos?

    I didn't understand how iPhoto accessed its photos, and deleted some of the content from the iPhoto folder directly
    This corrupted your library - b continuing to use a corrupted library you have continued the problem and it sounds like it finally has come in to bite you
    You can try using iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - to rebuild your library - this creates a totally new library so if the results are not acceptable you can go back to what you have
    other than that you have no choice I am aware of except to start over - drag the iPhoto library to the desktop and launch iPhoto and create a new library - open the old corrupt iPhoto library and open the originals folder and drag each folder in it onto iPhoto recreating your rolls but losing all edits and other changes

  • Dvd wont burn movie all the way

    The dvd is 4.7 GB and the movie is 4.1 the dvd wont burn the whole movie it stops a little before the movie is over. HOw do we burn a long movie onto dvd?

    What is the total playing time of your movie? iDVD 5 has a 120 minute limit, including menus, in the Best Quality setting or a 60 minute limit in the Best Performance setting. The size of the files is not the determining factor, just the playing time.

  • Will the dvd burn a DL dvd

    Will the dvd player/burner in my IMAC burn DL DVD`s

    Depends on your model. Click on about this Mac under the Apple, then on more info. Click on System Profiler (I believe that's what it says in Snow Leopard) or System Report in ML and see what it says under Disc Burning.

  • My 3 year old MacBook Pro, with OS 10.7.1, won't play movie DVDs I burned on Panther. Why?

    My 3 year old MacBook Pro, with OS 10.7.1, won't play movie DVDs I burned on Panther.
    Why?

    But to answer your question, you might be able to create a ISO of the DVD and burn that to a new DVD.
    Insert your DVD.
    Open /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.app.
    In the left side of the window, select the “DVD”.
    Click “New Image” from the Disk Utility toolbar and select where you want to save the temporary image. For “Image Format”, choose “DVD/CD master” and for “Encryption”, choose “none”.
    The image extension in the “Save As” box will be .cdr (this is what you want) — click “Save”.
    Once the temporary image is created, it will show up on the left side of the Disk Utility window. Select it.
    Insert a blank DVD (I prefer Verbatim discs).
    Click “Burn” from the Disk Utility toolbar.
    Another problem could be that you burned the DVD using a codec that your new machine doesn't have.
    Install Perian, VLC and Flip4Mac, that combination will play anything.
    Also install Flash for web content and Silverlight for Netflix.

  • Completing the DVD

    I am using FCE, and export my files to iDVD in quick time format. I am mainly doing weddings, and like to present the DVD to customers with chapter settings and a 'theme.'
    I find iDVD frustrating as there is a limit to the file size in iDVD. What other packages are available to complete the DVD before burning.
    I am looking a Roxio titanium toast 10 pro. Does anyone have experience on this package?

    I am looking a Roxio titanium toast 10 pro. Does anyone have experience on this package?
    I have an use both.
    IMO iDVD is the better option for you job you require. It's very customizable so can give the client a non-canned look. eg. The completed DVD can have menus, thumb nails all from their particular event, fonts and size are also customizable.
    1 hour 20 mins will fit and Chapter Markers are certainly possible.
    As mentioned the iDVD settings play a role in how muchwill go into a DVD as does menu options.
