What are third party compatible DVD burners?

I can't seem to find a clear answer to this question: What is a "third party compatible" DVD burner that I can use with iMovie/iDVD?
I don't have an internal DVD burner, so I'm thinking of picking up an external one. Problem is, I don't know which ones will work. Is there a list somewhere?
Do I need a firewire burner or can I use USB 2.0?
Thanks.

LaCie Firewire External DVD burners are good and they include Toast software.

  • What are Third Party Applications??

    I just want to know what they are since i'm confused with them... They sound illegal but i've seen them in the apple store as alarm clocks.

    ohhhh... Thnx so third party apps are every app apart from like 10apps made from apple??
    Yes.
    then why would the alarm clock that i have need to say that it is a third party apps and needs to stay open for it to work?
    It's probably saying that since it isn't an Apple application, it won't run in the background. However, with the latest update (iOS 4) it may be possible to find an alarm clock app that will be able to run in the background.

  • What are third party alternatives to Ovi Suite

    I really like my Nokia E63 Smartphone, and Nokia PC Suite is usable, I'll say no more than that.
    Unfortunately its replacement Nokia Ovi Suite, really is a dire application, appearing to have a UI designed by a child, and the coding done by someone committed to an asylum.
    Harsh words, indeedy so, but this Ovi Suite really does bring out the worst in a person when to attempt to use it.
    Enough has already been written about its short comings, so I won't waste time re-visiting...
    My quest is for a suitable third part application that will do the business without the problems.
    Searching around I've found two possibles, OxyCube which unfortunately just will not install its required bit on my phone, and MobilEdit which works reasonably well, but has a very dodgy .CSV import capability.
    So my question here to the knowledgeable is:
    Are there any other third party replacements for the Nokia offering?
    Thanks
    Ax

    +1 from me on both looking for a third party app, and loathing the Nokia-as-the-centre-of-the-universe approach to coding.  Nokia 5800.
    Had a torrid time with the OVI 3 update which simply doesn't do the sync'ing it promises to do, so rolled back to OVI 2 which gets stuck on insisting that I reinstall (a perfectly functioning) MS Outlook. 
    Since my Nokia phone is now next to useless through not giving me what I paid for, I'll also start looking at other brands.  Well done Nokia!

  • What are third party apps????

    hi everyone, in the 1.1.3 video, he says something about third party apps, what are they.
    thanks

    iPhone,
    The first and second party is Apple (the maker of the device) and you (the customer who uses the device). Right now all the software on the iPhone is from Apple. A third party is anybody besides Apple and you. Most webapps are written by "third-parties", and you can create bookmarks to them.
    In late February, there will be a System Developer's Kit which will allow writing third-party "native" applications that can be put on the iPhone will become possible. This link is to the announcement about the SDK:
    http://developer.apple.com/iphone/devcenter/thirdpartyapps.php
    Hope this helps,

  • What are the mac-compatible internal/external dvd burner for 12"Pbook

    what are the mac-compatible internal/external dvd burner for 12"Pbook

    ibodnano:
    You will find internal optical drivers from OWC here. You will find external DVD burners from OWC here.
    For the external drives, almost any Firewire burner will be supported by your PowerBook. Here are a few. You can further refine the filters.
    Good luck.

  • What is Third PArty PO

    Dear Gurus,
    Will any one help me explain what is Third Party PO., What is diffrence between Standard PO and Third Party PO?
    Thanking You
    Manoj Kumar

    Third party PO means
    you got the requirements from SD stating please procure the material X adn send it to the customer Y
    so it means in the std PO you are getting stock in your company but in third party you ask vendor to send the material directly to the customer rather receiving in your storage location.
    In third-party processing, you place a purchase order with a vendor to deliver goods or perform a service for a third party (for example, for a customer).
    This means that your company does not deliver the material. You forward the order to an external vendor instead, who then sends the material directly to the customer and invoices you.
    Third-party processing is carried out in the components SD (Sales and Distribution) and MM (Materials Management). By creating a third-party item in a sales order, purchase requisition, or purchase order, you can request that the vendor sends the goods directly to your customer. A document can consist of one or more third-party items.
    Activities
    Entering a Sales Order
    You enter a third-party item in a sales order. The system automatically creates a purchase requisition item for each third-party item in the sales order.
    Entering a Purchase Order to Vendor
    You enter a purchase order with a third-party item with reference to the requisition third-party item.
    Delivering Goods to Customer
    The vendor supplies the goods to the customer. To document this step in the system, you can post a statistical goods receipt in Inventory Management. However, this is not compulsory.
    Entering a Vendor Invoice
    The vendor sends you an invoice. You enter the invoice receipt in Invoice Verification. The invoice receipt is necessary before a billing document can be created in SD.
    Creating a Billing Document for the Customer
    In SD, you create a billing document for the sales order. Depending on the Customizing settings (whether or not the billing-relevant indicator is set for the item category in SD), you draw up the billing document on the basis of the order quantity or on the basis of the quantity specified in the vendor invoice. If the customer is billed on the basis of the order quantity, you can create the billing document immediately after the sales order is entered. If the customer is billed on the basis of the quantity specified in the vendor invoice, you cannot create the billing document until the vendor invoice has been entered in Invoice Verification.

  • HT4085 are third party media apps (youtube, grooveshark, etc.) grouped in the muted or unmuted category?  Since music and podcast (default apps) DO mute and games DON'T mute I thought it worth asking.

  • Are third party disk utilities really necessary?

    Are third party disk utilities [such as TechTool Pro or Disk Warrior] really necessary on a G5? Does the Apple Disk Utility perform all necessary repair functions?

    need a DiskWarrior for sure - buil-in utility is not very powerful for real nasty file corruption.
    most important is to back up files regularly to another drive - if drive fails no utility will fix it.

  • Would you mind telling us what that third party firmware...

    Would you mind telling us what that third party firmware was?

    Start with the wikipedia article on "WRT54G" and check some of the links for firmware projects. Have a closer look at the dd-wrt wiki.

  • Mid-2010 Mac Mini, dead optical drive: Are any slim Firewire DVD burners compatible?

    The optical drive on my Mac Mini seems to have died prematurely, as the OEM drives are known to do. Estimated cost of replacing the internal component: $170. And it would be the exact same model Apple optical drive, not a more robust one.
    Now very reluctantly thinking of adding yet another peripheral. USB ports are pretty well filled but I don't use the Firewire port for anything.
    Trouble is, since Apple discontinued Firewire, the manufacturers of Mac-compatible optical drives aren't making Firewire models any more.
    There are a few recent Firewire DVD burners from PC peripheral manufacturers, such as Acer, Aopen, Dell, Pioneer, Sony (Amazon reviews say it's restricted to burning Sony media) in a small "slim" form factor.
    Anyone have information about their compatibility with Firewire 800 on mid-2010 Mac mini, Mac OS 10.10.1 Yosemite?

    There are some steps involved which may translate to tedium,
    as noted in the repair guide for the Mid 2010 Mini from iFixit.
    •Mac Mini - Mid 2010 Repair Guide - iFixit:
    https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Mac_Mini_Mid_2010
    At about Step 25, of an overall rated Difficult process, you can
    see the Optical Drive, and likely be at a point to install replace-
    ment, then reverse the process; paying heed to advice given.

    https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Mac+mini+Model+A1347+Optical+Drive+Replacement/3167
    At least you can get into this computer. Be sure to have a spare
    optical drive cable and other possible items that may get broken
    in the process. Oh there also is a PRAM battery in this computer
    that may or may not need replacement while it is open...
    If at one point, if several parts were to be replaced at one time, a
    visit to a service technician becomes very cost effective. Find one
    that will install the parts you may get from third-party sources. If
    you know someone at a college computer lab, they may be able
    to perform the swap, test their work, and be done, in short order.
    Or, chose to use an external inexpensive 'superdrive' equivalent.
    I'd heard the LG brand was among some that work, and can also
    be used to boot the computer from System DVD or utility discs...
    It is a USB drive, can burn DVD/CD media, and is not costly.
    The ability to swap out the defective optical drive, and replace it
    with an SSD or second storage drive, may be a way to go; but
    it also would be at least as tedious as optical drive replacement.
    This may add value to the device, in a resale situation later.
    That would use the 'drive doubler' idea referred to at macsales.
    In the above main guide, is a primer on how to swap out the optical
    drive and replace it with a second hard disk drive or solid state drive.
    Similar to what the OWC site says, but they have a good kit, too.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Are third party Microphones compatible?

    I noticed the Nano has an integrated voice recording app, which is quite excellent.
    Will I be able to plug in third party 3.5mm microphones (Such as the Sony ECM-DS70P or similar) into the nano for recording purposes? It'd be really nice if this new nano could replace my digital recorder for recording my stand up performances.

    Firmware is installed, and I've used the Restore feature many times, but still the same thing.
    I hate taking my equipment to the Apple store (Arlington,VA) because their techs aren't any smarter than a tech savvy Mac user, and they tend to BS their resolutions.
    However, I think I might have to visit them so they can connect it to a laptop, and BS me some more. Hopefully it will start working.

  • Does third party external dvd writer support mac air?

  • CS5 Trial Version: are third party plugins allowed?

    I'm just considering an upgrade from Elements on recommendation that CS5 will provide better colour and page size control on my Canon iPF5000 - there is a Canon plugin that supports CS5 (they claim!).
    So downloaded the trial CS5 version and installed the Canon plugin according to the docs in ./plugins/import-export. No matter what I do I cannot get Photoshop to list the plugin, so I have no idea if it's actually being recognised or not. Unfortunately Canon don't seem to provide any documentation, so I've no idea what to expect.
    I've been told that trial versions don't support plugins - is this correct?
    OS is 10.5.

    The trial does support third party plugins.
    If the plugin is not written for 64 bits, then it will only be available if you switch Photoshop to run in 32 bits addressing mode.

  • What about third party apps that are duds?

    I downloaded an app from the app store called Pimp My Screen and icon changer. It will not work. It was a paid app from the app store on my IPod 7.1. Does apple ever check to see if their products actually work? Rip off.

    Try contacting iTunes support via the link at the bottom left.

    You can also try deleting the app and then downloading it again.
