Toshiba Video Player Won't Recognize DVD

I accidently uninstalled my player thinking that was the problem, when it was a registry problem with the CD/DVD Drive. After I fixed that problem I re-loaded the Toshiba Video Player from a recovery program, but not I can't get it to recognize any of the DVD's and it won't play any of them. How do I fix this? I spent the better of three hours trying things all to no avail.

Explain all that in detail.
What registry problem? How did you fix it? Where did you get the fix? How do you know it's fixed?
What exact player did you reinstall?
And so forth...

TOSHIBA Video Player (released March 25th, 2015) update failed

Howdy, y'all,
On my C55D-A5381 laptop (Windows 8.1, version 6.3.9600 Build 9600, with all available updates), Toshiba Video Player 5.3.5.59 is installed. While looking for driver and utility updates, I saw that an update was released on March 25th, 2015. I downloaded the self-installer and ran it. The InstallShield Wizard named PatchProject offered 3 C++ redistributables: 2011 for x86 and x64, and 2005 SP1 for x86. I clicked Install but the installation failed:
Version of source build is not target build
Error: -2
What's wrong and how do I fix it?
Thanks much.

Run the Toshiba service station, under software updates check for updates. Does any updates show up and is one of them the video player?
Mine updated through the service station.:
Changes in this update
Fixed: Title names are displayed incorrectly when "title" is selected from the right-click menu on the video window during playback of a DVD-VR title.

Toshiba Video Player v5.3.49.124_A-patch installation

Hi
I'm trying to install an update to Toshiba Video Player released on February 15th 2015 - version 5.3.49.124_A patch. The problem is, as soon as I try to install it its says that its extracting the file and then an error message appears, "Unable to create file, error 120." Please help in trying to resolve the above error.
Thank You,
Inayat

Hmmmm.... as I can see you don't have original factory settings anymore. In the past I have always installed updates on original OS version and cannot say if Win update is the reason for described issue.
But original player version is still installed on your machine and works properly, right?
I mean if everything is OK I think patch installation is not so necessary.

Html5 video player won't work with slider script??

Hi - I'm new to html5 and Dreamweaver, but I've worked with html in the past, so most things aspects aren't foreign to me.
My question is this: I'm working with an existing html5 template and it had a slider graphics bar near the top. It works fine and scrolls through three pre-made banners.
The problem is I just added the widget for HTML5 Videoplayer and inserted it into my code. The video box, etc. shows up fine, and will play, but now the slider graphic box at the top doesn't work anymore. Instead it just displays all three banners as images, one on top of the other.
When I look closer at the script code that the widget embeds, it seems as though the script widget code is not playing well with the existing script code. When I remove the script code that the widget installs, the slider works perfectly again (but the video obviously won't play).
The exact code is included below. My question is, how can I make the two of these scripts work together???Any help would be great appreciated. Thanks, Blair

Drive won't recognize DVDs but will CDs

My Macbook (6months old) has stopped reading or recognizing DVDs. It recognizes CDs, blank discs, etc. fine but not DVDs. They do not show up on the desktop or in the Finder sidebar. It tries to open it a few times and then spits it out. This is a new occurrence. I used to watch DVDs all the time on it.
So, what I can gather is that a laser may be dirty or the drive may be dead somehow. It is not a problem with DVD player, front row, any type of system preference. I even downloaded VLC, to no avail. It is the drive that is not working.
Problem: I am living in Jerusalem for the year. There are no Mac stores or any Mac help in Israel. I need my computer, so I can not send it off for a few weeks to America to be fixed. But, by the time I get back to the states, my warranty will no longer be valid. Also, I have not tried to play an Israeli movie or any foreign movie in the drive. Only my movies bought in America that I have watched on the computer before.
What can I do? Is there any hope for some kind of other miracle cure? HELP!

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Purchase AppleCare in Jerusalem. AppleCare is available worldwide, and AppleCare purchased anywhere will work anywhere else.
As for Israeli films not working, they are a different DVD region than that of the U.S. You may want to find a region free, or Israeli region DVD player to play Israeli DVDs on. To learn more about DVD regions see this article:
If U.S. DVDs don't work either, once you've purchased AppleCare, have your optical drive looked into for damage and/or dirt by an authorized service center.

Circle with slash/won't recognize DVD or external drives

Hardware UUID:          134FD99D-DF06-5912-A8B9-255280C48DCC
It often fails to boot with the circle with slash. Tried safe boot (works), tried booting from optical drive with original system disc (won't recognize or eject-tried all of the eject techniques), and ran disk repair in target mode (found nothig wrong). Can't run hardware check for obvious reasons. It does not see external drives connected to FW or USB ports.I am starting to suspect a bad logic board. Any thoughts?

I can no longer startup from a CD/DVD
Be sure you're inserting the DVD that came with your Mac Pro. If you are trying to boot from other optical media be sure it is compatible with Intel Macs and specifically the Mac Pro. You are probably trying to boot off a discs that does not have a suitable OS on it.
or my external FW drive which has 10.4.8 also installed on it (pre-intel)
Same goes here. Your FireWire drive does not have a suitable OS installed in it. You need to install an Intel version of Mac OS X. Additionally you will probably need to repartition your drive using the GUID Partition Table. Until you do both of these Startup Disk will not let you select it.

DVD Player (Won't inject DVD)

My DVD Player won't inject a movie I'm trying to watch. It was working okay a while ago, and i haven't dropped it or hurt it. HELP PLEASE!

Hi,
Download Imgburn and check your optical drive capabilities. See the below image.
Check under Read and make sure that your opitcal drive has BD read capabilities.
Download the Cyberlink BD Advisor and use it to check to make sure your system passes for BD play.

IMac won't recognize DVD/CD drive anymore

As the title suggests, my iMac won't recognize my dvd drive anymore.
I don't know what the reason is for it.
I've never had this problem before, it happened a couple weeks ago.
I first noticed this when I tried burning a CD in iTunes.
It said at the top of the screen "Disc burner or software not found..."
I then went to System Profiler and checked "Disc Burning" and it
read, "No burning device was found. If you are using an external device please make sure that it is connected and powered properly." I'm not using an external device. I'm using the DVD drive that originally came with my iMac.
If anyone could please help me out with this I'd be very grateful.

Lately, I left my iMac on while I was sleeping. Couple nights ago, the optical drive made a funny noise and woke me up. It sounds very similar to opening up Disk Utility on my MacBook Pro, it looked for the internal optical drive. First, I didn't do further investigation on my iMac.
Yesterday, I happened to do some 'housecleaning' and attempted to slide in a data CD. The drive didn't response, so the CD was stuck. In the past, I had opened up numerous iMacs and they were getting more complicated model by model. I am certified to perform the repair, but since this iMac is covered under AppleCare, I decided to make an appointment with the MacGenius.
I did perform a PRAM reset earlier.
Do you have 'put the hard disk(s) to sleep when possible' checked under Energy Saver?
Out of all the Macs with slot-load optical drives built-in I have owned, this is the first malfunctioning I have ever had.

Video player won't display video after OS update

Just installed new OS update on my Z30. Video player will not display video but I have audio

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Hmmm..."just installed"...hmmm...how long ago please? And have you conducted several reboots since, and let it "settle" for about 48 hours?
Also, "new OS update"...can you be more specific please? Each user is separately controlled (usually by their own carrier) as to what OS they receive, so "new" for one may not be the same version as "new" for another.
Let us know.

HTML5 video player won't load YouTube videos (and probably nothing else either)

When I request that YouTube use the HTML5 video player for videos, no videos will load - I have to switch to Adobe Flash for anything to play. The page for a video will finish loading and I'll just sit there watching the loading spiral of death ceaselessly. I've tried a number of suggestions from other threads with similar issues and nothing's helped.
- Safe Mode does NOT fix the problem (so it's not an add-on or script issue)
- Clearing cookies/cache does not work
- Toggling the media.windows-media-foundation.enabled setting does nothing
- Disabling hardware acceleration also does nothing
I'm at my wit's end. Flash will hang and crash REALLY often so I don't want to use it, but it's the only thing that works for YouTube. Please help.

You have to download and install Adobe Flash. Flash is not pre-installed.

DVD player won't recognize firewire DVD drive and won't install.

I bought a Sony firewire DVD drive so that my wife could watch DVDs on her iBook. I can't get Apple's DVD Player to install on the iBook because it says it doesn't recognize any appropriate hardware.
Does anyone know how to get it to recognize the firewire DVD player and install?
If not, does anyone else know of a good third party DVD player for this iBook. I installed one, I think it is called Xine or something like that. It playes the DVDs but is "glitchy."
Thanks very much,
Ted Vieira

Actually, since posting the question I found an answer in an ealier thread...
I'm still not sure about getting Apple's DVD Player to work with an exernal drive, but you can get a free VLC Medea Player that works great at:

I was able to download this and install it. It was a little "glitchy" with USB 2.0, but worked fine with FireWire.

DVD Player won't read DVD then crashes when trying to load VIDEO_TS folder

I use DVD player for movies maybe once a week.
I insert a DVD. It shows up on the dekstop as it should.
Once in a while, if it's a video DVD, DVD player opens and it says, "this type of media is not supported" (or whatever the message is).
I can open the DVD in the Finder and see the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders and anything else that may be on it.
If I go to DVD PLayer and select File -> Open DVD Media, it crashes.
I have to reboot to watch a DVD.
I haven't been able to get it to do it when I want since it only happens after a week or so.

Won't Recognize DVD

I am currently running an iMac G5 v 10.3.9
I have a dvd recorder and I recorded about 30 minutes of video. The dvd is a memorex DVD-R. I have been browsing the forum looking for the answer and I can't seem to find it.
The disc is perfect no scratches.
It's not my Drive because I can recognize any other dvd's or Cd's
When I try to open the dvd in finder it gives me this error:
Burning the disc failed because this type of CD is not supported.
Yet on other forums I have seen people with the same model as me use these dvd's.
Help please I don't feel like calling applecare .

Hi Laxxxxx;
Welcome to discussions!
Have you actually burned a DVD on this mac before?
Memorex disks don't have the best reputation.
Perhaps try using Verbatim DVD-R.

My Blu-ray drive will play Blu-rays but won't recognize DVDs or CDs

Hi I have a Pavilion dv6 recently had a problem and I restored it back to factory settings. Thing is before I did this I tried making recovery discs. It made it through the first, then half way through the second, but said the second one was full then when I tried to put another disc in it wouldn't recognize it. I took the comp back to factory settings, but the problem still persists. My Blu-ray play is the HP BD-ROM BDCTD03HA . I am running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. I can provide any other info if needed.

I forgot to mention I have tried just about everything and so far nothing has worked. Please I just want my dvd player back!
