What blank DVD-R will work with a macbook pro and Matshita UJ-857E

Hi in my macbook pro is the factory fitted Matshita UJ-857E superdrive, when I insert a blank DVD-R it spits it out, blank CD's work ok.
I have Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).
I have tried three different types of brands including maxell, verbatim and cheap woolworths brand.
I bought an external USB DVD burner and this recognises any DVD-R I throw at it, so I think it can either be a faulty drive or it's a bit fussy about the brand of DVD's it can recognise.
Please can you post the blank DVD's that work on your macbook pro superdrive

Thanks for pointing that out, re posted here

  • What internal DVD+/-RW will work with my Satellite P10-304

    Can anyone give me an answer to what internal DVD+/-RW will work with my Satellite P10-304.
    I've been told a SDR-6012 or a UJ-820 DVD+/-RW might work.
    Please help
    Thanks

    Hi
    Did you check the user manual of the P10 Satellite?
    Sometimes the compatible CD/DVD drives can be found in the user manual which should be installed on your notebook.
    If you dont have the user manual then you could download it from the Toshiba page.
    However, if you will not find the right info in the user manual then I would recommend contacting the ASP in your country for details.
    Usually you could order a supported drive from these guys.
    Its important that you know what drives are compatible due to the different master\slave\c-sel settings.
    Bye and good luck

  • What web cam(s) actually work with my macbook pro? (os10 ver 10.6.8)

    What is the best (out of the box running) web cam for a macbook pro? ( I'm running os10.6.8)  Little background below:
    Man I'm confused!  I see that the logitech c910 web cam works with the mac but then I also see that it only "sort of " works..... huh??  I got my macbook pro because its software instantly recognized me as the dummy.  Very "turn key" user friendly stuff with the MAC and great for music stuff which is what I do for a living.  One of my jobs is part time guitar instructor at a community college and I'm hoping to create digested vids of the sessions to help students that miss class.  I'd like to edit the videos in imovie and have some text/music stuff on the screen as well.  I knew there would be a little learning curve and it would take a while to get comfortable but I can't even get the camera to get started!   Any suggestions would help.  Especially from anyone who has done guitar stuff before i.e. youtube etc....thanks

    I am embarrassed how simple that was.  I did warn you that I'm technologically challenged; I'm pretty sure that proved it.
    The external hard drive is formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled). The link you provided indicates the external drive will work with Time Machine.  I've never worked with Time Machine and don't know what my next step should be.  Would you please walk me through it?
    Your help is greatly appreciated.  From the points you have accumulated, I can tell you have helped many others and I thank you for your generosity.

  • Will my old isight camera work with my Macbook pro and HD Cinema display?

    I have it hooked up but can't get the computer to switch from the built in camera to the external one.

    Firewire iSights can be picky about how they are connected. My first suggestion for your particular trouble is to try connecting directly to one of your Mac's built-in FW ports rather than via the monitor's Firewire hub. More info:
      http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/EZJim/EZJimpage6.html
    If necessary, you can use the suggestions from How to test your (external) iSight to ensure it is functional to be sure it is working with your new Mac.
    The solutions to your issues about switching from the built-in camera depends on which application you are using to operate your iSight. Here is how camera selection works in a few exampleS:
    (1) For iChat, you can choose which iSight you use in the "Camera:" choices bar in iChat > Preferences... > Audio/Video that appears when more than one compatible camera is connected. Although your camera choices will be different, the choices bar will look something similar to the Preferences settings shown here:
    If you cannot see this choices bar, your Mac is recognizing only one (or none) of your iSights. In that case, consider the suggestions from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    This choices bar solution applies ONLY to iChat. Most other applications also have settings that allow you to choose which camera to use. However, they do not all work the same way.
    (2) For instance, iMovie HD's camera choice is NOT set via Preferences. When you have more than one compatible camera connected, iMovie uses a drop-down menu choice something like this (depending on which version of iMovie you use):
    Note: Because I had no built-in iSight connected when I made this example, when my external iSight was disconnected, the drop-down menu showed only "Time Lapse." Because your Mac has a built-in iSight, your built-in iSight would show in the drop-down menu even when no other camera is connected. Connecting your external iSight should allow you to choose either camera.
    iMove 8 (from iLife '09) uses a different camera choice button shown in this article:
      http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iMovie/8.0/en/10172.html
    In general, you can use your Mac's help for the application in use to find out how to select among more than one connected camera.
    (3) Photo Booth is a different matter. PB is such a simple, basic app that it offers no menu selectable choice. Unless you make your built-in iSight the camera being used by some open application before you launch Photo Booth, Photo Booth will use ONLY your built-in iSight.
    However, you can use the trick from ¶ 4 of http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302781 to let Photo Booth use your Firewire external  iSight:
    • Connect your external iSight and turn it on.
    • Quit Photo Booth (PB) if it is running.
    • Launch any app with a user-selectable camera "Preferences..." menu command.
     (The "tip" suggests that you use iChat, but others should work as well.)
    • Open "Preferences..." and set the camera "Preference" to use your built-in iSight.
    • Now launch PB. PB should now use the external iSight
     because your built-in camera is in use by the other application.
    (4) For apps other than those above, see their Help or other documentation.
    (5) If you have specific questions, we will try to help, too.

  • I have 23 inch Apple HD Display. Will this work with my MacBook Pro? How shall I connect it?

    I have 23 inch Apple HD Display. Will this work with my MacBook Pro? How shall I connect it?

    yarova818,
    there were two different 23-inch Apple Cinema HD displays made. The first one was made between 2002 and 2004, and has an ADC connector. The second one was made between 2004 and 2008, and has a DVI-D connector.
    If you have the display with an ADC connector, then according to this Apple page, your display will work with your MacBook Pro if it’s a 13-inch or 15-inch model. If you have a first-generation MacBook Pro, you’d need an Apple DVI to ADC Adapter (or equivalent) to connect them. If you have a Unibody or Retina MacBook Pro, then you’d also need a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter (or equivalent) to complete the connection. A Retina model would also have the option of using a third-party HDMI to DVI-D adapter to complete the connection with the DVI to ADC adapter.
    If you have the display with a DVI-D connector, then if you have a first-generation MacBook Pro, you should be able to plug it in directly. If you have a Unibody or Retina MacBook Pro, then the Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter would let you make the connection. Again, Retina models also would have the option of using a third-party HDMI to DVI-D adapter.

    I have just purchased a Canon Pixma MG2900 printer and need to find a driver for this printer that will work with my MacBook Pro Operating System OSX Version 10.4.11.
    I was directed to iTunes PIXMA/MAXI, but it didn't seem to download for me.  It did say that it was for IPads or IPhones, not sure that it's intended for use on a computer.

    I just cleaned the drive with a CD Lens cleaning kit, it looked like an ordinary CD but had two small brushes on it, a small amount of ethanol on the brushes, pop it in your superdrive, DVD's are now recognized
    Was just a dirty laser, weird how it wrote CD's and not DVD's though, anyway, problem solved.

    What version of Elements will work with Canon Print Studio Pro?

    I tried this step but it did not work. I have a Mac YosemiteOS 10.10.1. I copied to plug in files from Canon Print Studio Pro. Open canon utilities, open print studio pro, open CS4 folder and copied files CNPSPP101.plugin and CNPSPP102.plugin (not there is also a folder called CS5 but it has the fame plugin files)
    I copy these files and then go to Photoshop Elements 13 and paste these files in Support File folder in Plug - ins and also did in folder Optional Plug-ins.
    I then open Photoshop Elements 13 and hit Automation tools but Canon Pro Studio option is not there.
    Can you provide more details on where I might be going wrong.
    I put in a trial version of Elements 12 and have no problem. I just can't find where to purchase Elements 12 so I do not lose it in 30 days. Know where I can  purchase?
