Unable to copy dvd

I've been asked by my nephew to make a copy of his wedding video, although it plays perfectly in my dvd player, when I insert the disc in my mac it comes up as an untitled dvd with the extension fpbf. Double clicking on the dvd icon brings up an empty window in the finder. Any ideas how I could make a copy of this disc? Many thanks.

Hello Mike66
Thank you for your question,
Make sure your drive supports to write this CD or DVD. It may only be able to view it.
Apple Button -> About this Mac. -> More Information -> Storage Information.
Hope you get it working.
With kind regards

Unable to copy DVD with home movies

I am able to play a DVD that has home movies on it on my Imac and MacBook Pro. I am not able to import into IMovie to try some editing and I cannot copy or burn another disk to share. The copy company stated there was no copy protection on the disk. I made a folder on my Desktop and dragged the icon of the disk to the folder and files appeared in the folder but they appeared as black screen with the file name under them. I can use any assistance or advice.

I am not able to import into IMovie to try some editing
Use MPEG Streamclip and Apple's MPEG-2 playback component to convert the VOB files on it to DV.
I cannot copy or burn another disk to share
Use the Disk Utility in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder to image it as a DVD/CD master and then burn the image.
Neither method will work on copy protected DVDs.

Sounds like you have a Windows file there. I haven't encountered this problem, but others have:

Unable to burn dvds

I am unable to burn dvds. I'm attempting to backup my iphoto library. When I drag and drop I get an alias icon on the dvd, it does not copy. When I go ahead and try and burn, the disk is ejected and i get them message, "an error has occured" This is my first attempt at burning a dvd.
Do I need additional software?

Do you use PLUS or MINUS media?
Take a look at system profiler whether your drive is capable of writing the format you have chosen.

Unable to read burned dvd, unable to format dvd, and unable to burn dvd

Unable to read burned dvd, unable to format dvd, and unable to burn dvd with my HP G62-339WM Notebook PCI have been unable to perform the Windows back up for months without using new discs. But even after using new discs Windows backup tells me that the disc that I previously used that it is asking to insert is not formatted. I also have not been able to read any dvds that I previously burned, instead it will sometimes recognize them as blank and they are not. I also cannot perform a format on new dvd discs nor burn to them. I have been able to read some previously burned discs on another pc but not the discs that were created with Windows backup. I have tried everything. I have uninstalled the device, ran the fix it, tried troubleshooting, checked the registry and could not find the upper and lower filters listed. I am however able to read program software and the autorun pops up. Once in a while the autorun will pop up when a blank disc is inserted but then that is all the further I am able to use it. I don't know what else to do. I really want to be able to at least burn files to back up so that they are not lost forever. Please help!

Fixed it myself - for some reason the La Cie refused to read the media. Had to use another machine to pull the data from the drive, copy it over the network to my iMac and then mount the ISO image.

Unable to copy data in planning

Hi Gurus,
I am unable to copy data using "copy data" in planning web application.
getting an error "MSG_COPY_DATA_OPTIONS_FAILED: An error occurred while running the specified calc script. Check the log for details."
here are the steps I checked:
I checked whether planning and essbase are in sync.
The DBA team says that there was no spikes in memory.
when I take small data set it see data in target but the status in Job Console says processing for the past 45 min.
I was copying only one month of data.
please help.

I see you must of read the two Oracle Support articles by what you wrote in your post.
Have you checked the essbase app log? also it sometimes help to restart the planning web app when it happens.
Also have a read of Re: Where is the calc script created when running the 'Copy Data' function ?
Cheers

HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-one problem printing. Ink System Failure has failed unable to copy--

I'm having a problem printing on my HP Photosmart C7280 All-In-One. The following message is what came up on the printer screen: Ink System Failure has failed unable to copy, receive faxes or print. Refer to printer documentation Error O.cl9a0007.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hey Spider! First off welcome to the forum.
I would recommend removing all the ink cartridges, unplugging the USB cable from the computer that connects to the printer, and then shutting the printer off completely by removing the power cord. Then restart your computer. Turn the printer back on but leave it disconnected from the computer. After it has finished its power on cycle go ahead and insert the ink cartridges back into the printer and be sure to seat them properly.
After you have all the cartridges back in the printer properly then connect it to the computer. See if this resolves the issue. If not post back with any findings.
Thanks,
SeanS

Have you tried to reset the printer by removing the power plug from the wall outlet & waiting 60 seconds b4 plugging it back in?
Normally this error requires servicing or replacement of the printer.
Is the warranty period over?

Connect your phone to itunes as you have been doing.
In the sidebar, select you phone and then on the main part of the iTunes window, select Music.
Check the Sync Music box and then you can either sync all music, or select the tracks/albums/artists/genres as you wish.
Once selected, at the bottom right on the maon iTunes window, select Sync.
Music will now be copied to you phone.

Error: unable to copy to output directory, ReqMgmtActionsVO.xml not found

hi,
While running a page using jdeveloper am getting error like
Error: unable to copy to output directory, ReqMgmtActionsVO.xml not found.
am very thankful to the response
Thanks
Surya

Hi,
I faced the same issue.
I fixed it by searching the missing file (In my case MyEO.xml which is a removed file) using JDeveloper (Menu Search/Search Files...).
It found an occurence in the related .jpr file.
In the .jpr, I deleted the related lines:
<Item>
<Key class="java.net.URL" path="xx/oracle/apps/.../MyEO.xml"/>
<Value idref="15"/>
</Item>
That's it.

I am unable to copy files from my macbook pro to my external hard disk.

I am unable to copy files from my macbook pro to my external hard disk. I tried to copy a movie 800mb in size to my EDD and it shows the loading box and it says zero kb loaded out of 800mb and sometimes it loads a a few kb of the file, then after a while it ejects my hard disk and gives a message saying you should have ejected it properly. and it sometimes gives this message
"The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “....” can’t be read or written.
(Error code -36)".
This happens with a range of files if they are more than a few mb in size, so I am pretty sure its not the file problem. It also occurs sometimes when i try to copy from my EDD to my mac.
I have tried everything. I formatted my EDD to MS-DOS (FAT) format because i need to use it with mac and windows. I tried resetting The SMC and the PRAM and NVRAM. I tried verify and disk repair on disk utility. But the same thing happens over again and it is really frustrating. The problem doesnt happen with my PC.
My EDD is an Apollo 320GB hard drive from Imation.
Also are there any particular EDD brands that may not have this issue with MACs and can be used on mac and PC?
Thanks in advance!

Hey guys,
So this is follow up from my debarkle with the EDD. I found out my problem with copying files from Mac to EDD and vice versa was a result of a not so good EDD ( i had an apollo hard drive from imation) that was not very compatible with macs. So i did my research and found out that the best hard drives were Western Digital and Seagate. I bought the newest western digital EDD 1TB and formated it to FAT32 and guess what...no problems so far. The only problem is that FAT32 format doesn't copy files larger than about 4 gigs so i couldnt copy a movie from my brothers computer onto my EDD that was 1080p. You could probably resolve that by partitioning a small part of your hard drive in ExFAT? but yeah, hopefully that helped guys.

HT1751 unable to copy iTunes folder from mac to external hard drive, says hard drive can't be modified

when attempting to copy itunes folder to external hard drive, response is unable to copy file, hard drive can't be modified. What does that mean and how to I use external HD to transfer itunes library to new PC?

The drive is probably formated as NTFS, and your Mac doesn't have an NTFS write driver installed. Why not transfer the folder over your network?

I'm unable to burn DVDs on my MacBook Pro 2.16 GHz, 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM

Hello all,
I'm unable to burn DVDs on my MacBook Pro 2.16 GHz, 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM running 10.4.8. When I go to burn a DVD I get one of two codes 0X8002006D, 0X80020022, why is that a 3,000 CPU cant burn a DVD. My Mac is total up to date with all software and firmware. I saw in the Discussions that I'm not the first person to have this issue but I don't see an answer from Apple, I'm pretty sure it not the DVDs (Memorex DVD-R 16X) because my ****** pc can burn them and it was a 100 pack that I used about 50 from it that I burn on both Macs and the ****** PC. I also have a Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5 with 2.5 GB DDR SDRAM running 10.4.8 which is also unable to burn them and it also comes up with the same errors. I have not had this issue until I updated my Macs to 10.4.8, PLEASE HELP.
Thanks,
Coons

Yes I can play CDs and DVDs but I was not able to burn a 4.01GB folder, I have since decreased the folder size to 3.75 and was able to burn the DVD. I'm creating another just to double check, my G5 was unable to complete the task and I also gave a shot at a 2.77GB folder and it failed I also gave a 200Mb file a chance but it still did not burn. I was able to burn the same 200MB file on a CD, PLEASE I NEED HELP.
