Theme customized but defaults to original when burned

I made a slideshow in iphoto and saved as disc image, used disc utility to burn the dvd.
i changed the theme on the intro page-music, photo, background, etc.
when burning to disc image, i see my customized version. when i play back the newly created dvd, it has the original theme! argh.
I'm new to this, so maybe it's a simple thing. (I did "save as" with this idvd file prior to burning.) thanks,
Kim

Hello, Kim
Welcome to the discussions.
To add to Bengt's great advice, I would also delete iDVD's preference file.
YourUserName_.Library->Preferences->com.apple.idvdplist.
Do this with iDVD closed. Trash the plist file. When you reopen iDVD, a new file will be created.
Also, since you did a 'save as' with this file, you could delete the other one if you no longer need it.

Runs fine in preview, but doesn't work when burned

I've been running into a few nagging problems on iDVD 6...
When I preview what I've assembled in iDVD, it runs as intended -- an autoplay intro movie, then to the main menu.
When I've burned it to DVD, it starts with the intro movie, but then goes into a submenu instead of the main menu.
Any possible advice on what could be causing this?

Welcome to the forums.
In terms of a sequence, is it possible you added the submenu movie to the project before adding the movie starting from the main menu? In other words, iDVD normally plays movies in the order they are added to the project (the buttons are links to the movies which can be cut and pasted to different menus).

HT1040 trying to make an ibook and have 800 photos, want format of 8 photos/page, but default is not that- "create" the initial book from iphoto "album" it loads less than 800 pics and then when i change layout i have blanks.

trying to make an ibook and have 800 photos, want format of 8 photos/page, but default is not that- "create" the initial book from iphoto "album" it loads less than 800 pics and then when i change layout i have blanks.
if i clear the book so that it is all blanks and then try to load in the pictures i have it loses the chronology of the pictures that i had established in the album.
is there a way to import photos into an ibook template and keep the original order of the photos without having to do them one at a time?
also, is there a way to insert a photo rather than just dragging it? i have tried the cut and paste funciton but it doesn't seem to work, the target site doesn't seem to register with iphoto.
many thanks for your help.

Photos are added to book in chronological order. So if you want to add them to a book in the order you have placed them manually in an album do the following:
1 - select all the photos in the album.
2 - use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date menu option as shown here. Select any date and add 1 minute between photos.
3 - select just one photo from the album and create a book from it.
4 - in the book click on the Options button ➙ Book Settings button and make sure the checkbox for Auto-layout pages is unchecked.
5 - drag the album with your book photos onto the book icon and they will be imported into the Photos tray of the book in your pre-determined order but not into the pages themselves.

Burned a DVD but has bad glitches when I played in DVD player

Hey-
I have the rights to the dvd I am trying to burn, I was told to use disc utility to burn a copy and it did burn it but it turned out glitchy like when someone has Dish Network or Direct TV and it rains. The picture is there but freezes and glitches and the sound is kinda there too. What did I do wrong and what do I need to use or do to burn a good copy?
My friend says they may have sent me a locked copy of my dvd and that I will have to contact the place that made it for me but I would think it wouldn't have burned at all if that was the case and I sure as **** would have had to pay for the right for a locked copy.

I made a disc image saved it and burn the copy, I followed these directions:
Insert your DVD into your Mac. Most Macs will automatically launch DVD Player. Once it launches, quit it. You should see your DVD disc mounted on your Desktop.
Open Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities). Select the DVD disc from the list on the left. You will notice that there are two DVD icons--select the one slightly indented (this is the DVD itself, whereas the first one is the drive).
Click on "New Image" in the Disk Utility main window.
Choose a name and a destination from the "Save As..." window. Keep in mind that your destination should have enough space to copy the entire DVD, which can be over four gigs.
In the "Save As..." window, be sure the "Image Format" selection is set to "DVD/CD Master" and the "Encryption" selection is set to "none". Click Save.
After copying the DVD to your destination drive, return to Disk Utility. Your new Disk Image will appear in the list on the left of the Disk Utility window. Eject the original DVD disc from your Mac.
Insert a writable DVD disc into your Mac. Select your newly created Disk Image from the list on the left of the Disk Utility window. Click on "Burn" in the Disk Utility main window. Select your burn speed and whether you would like to Verify Burned Data.
You will receive confirmation once you DVD is successfully burned and you are all set with a fresh copy of your DVD disc. Simply save your new Disk Image and you can make a copy whenever you may need it.
When I played it in the DVD player, it loaded and began to play but was distored like when the TV glitches in a storm. You could see that it had attempted to burn correctly but something caused it to not turn out right and the audio was just as messed up.
I didn't use a great quality disc but my friend burned her iMovie on them just fine. They are 16x so maybe that is my problem, not sure does this help you to know what I am doing wrong???!!

I converted from a PC to a Mac Mini. I have my PC documents backed up on a DVD disk. I have an external DVD drive connected to the Mac Mini. I want to open them up and save them to the Mac, BUT....when I put the DVD disk in the Mac is NOT reading it!

Hi Joe,
Thanks for your quick response. I should add....it worked before. When I previously inserted the two DVDs into this remote drive, and I went into finder, I could click on the "remote device" line and see all my saved documents (excel, word, etc) on the DVD and open them on the Mac. Now I cannot see them, when I try to open them on the Mac, nothing happens, nothing is displayed. I just re-tested the remote DVD drive with a CD and, no problem, it opened up the CD via iTunes and I cold play the CD. SO......I know the remote DVD drive (it's an LG by the way) is fine, it's something to do with some settings on my mini mac,especially where I could open it previously. I do not remember changing any settings since then.
When I go into system preferences and click on CD/DVD it gives me options of how to open up a music CD (default is iTunes), a DVD (default is iMovie), etc. The problem is my DVD is all miscellaneious files/documents. I just want to be able to see them in the finder. I also tried to open them via microsoft word, from the remote disk and again, it could not open the drive, even though some of the documents were microsoft word documents. Again, I was able to open them previously and the DVD is not corrupted in any way.
Any additional advice?
Thank you!

Hey shahbazfromgbr,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
I understand you are having issues with sound output on your iPhone 4S. For troubleshooting steps, the following article provides the best information:
iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1630
1. Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
2. Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
3. While on the Home screen, adjust the volume buttons. If you see the icon below, indicating that headphones are attached, there may be debris or an object lodged in the headset jack:
4. Check the headset jack. If there is an object lodged in the headset jack that is not easily removed, have the iPhone serviced to remove object.
5. For Original iPhone: If there is light debris, such as lint, in the headset jack, try connecting a pair of headphones to the headset jack and then remove the headphones. Repeat this several times to remove the debris.
6. If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
7. Check the receiver mesh (which is on the top front of the device, above the display). If it appears blocked, use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to carefully and gently brush away any debris.
8. If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (choose Settings > General > Bluetooth).
9. Restart the iPhone.
10. If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
11. If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Is there a fix for layers not displaying in window when desktop theme changes from default?

Every time I change my desktop theme from windows default I can't see the layers in the Adobe window. Can anyone tell me where in options/preferences is the fix for this?

Hi Kelly, what happened is that I changed by Win7 desktop theme to a Holiday based theme and when working in Adobe Photoshop part of CS6 collection I start a new project and the layers work panel shows me there is a back ground layer there but in the Adobe work space window the layer doesn’t display. I tried change layer background colors but that didn’t work. If I change the Wind 7 desktop theme back to default it works as expected. Hope this helps. J

HT201272 When iTunes was upgraded to the lastest (11.0), many of of songs/music/audiobooks were deleted! I tried syncing my phone to my computer to get them back, but many of those were deleted too!   How do I get my purchases back to play them???

When iTunes was upgraded to the lastest (11.0), many of of songs/music/audiobooks were deleted! I tried syncing my phone to my computer to get them back, but many of those were deleted too!   How do I get my purchases back to play them???
It shows on iTunes SOME of my past purchases, but not all (looks like around 30-40% of purchases).    It shows on my apple id purchase history everything i have purchased; but in iTunes, some not all of these show up.    What does show up is kind of "greyed out", so NOTHING will actually play.   I have followed the steps in the iTunes support about how to redownload past purchases, but this dowsn't work, as the download button is also "greyed out".
I am extremly angry and upset about this issue. Could someone please help / advise re how to fix????

I'm hoping that this may be just a misunderstanding somewhere.
Could you show an image showing these greyed out items?

Does the ipod nano 7th gen work with Belkin Blue tooth In car hands free? Customer support said it did when I bought it, but the box doesn't say it does and I dont want to open it in case I have to return it.

If the Belkin supports the A2DP (Stereo Bluetooth) profile then it will work.

The iPhoto library should be in your user folder/Pictures unless it was moved.

I have upgraded from 10.5 to 10.6 and found that all folders/files/pics have pixelated (either white or black) patterns on them. But it turns out fine when i open up the affected files/folders/pics. And this phenomenon persists after updating software.

I have upgraded from 10.5 to 10.6 and found that all folders/files/pics in my disk drive have 'dotted' (either white or black) patterns on them. But it turns out fine when I open up the affected files/folders/pics. And this phenomenon persisted even after updating to the latest software. I proceeded to upgrade to 10.8 and updated the latest software thinking that this might resolve the problem but still stays the same way as it was. Could it be the Adobe flash player that is causing this problem? Please help.

When burning a playlist to disc, how do you keep the songs in original order?

When burning a playlist to disc, how do you keep the songs in original order?

If you are burning an audio CD, they will burn in sequential order as in your playlist.
If you are burning an MP3 CD or a data CD, they will burn as individual files, and can be sorted any way you like when you view the CD. For an MP3 CD, the files will be prepended with a sequence number, so if you sort by filename, they will be in the original order.
