What is the best compatible DVD to burn a file off of my MAC..?

My Mac is  2011 27" screen Desktop.

and (about coating quality):

and that last article includes information on where (in the US) you can buy Taiyo Yuden media. In the UK you can Google for them. As for Verbatim, even Sainsbury's sell them!
Also, this guide to what brands of DVD are the most reliable (and who makes them) is invaluable:

  • What is the best way to export/share GarageBand files with a non-mac user?

    I have some GB2 files, too big to email, that I want a client to hear and give direction. then I can make the changes and re-export them for him to hear again. What is the best way to do this? IMac seems to be forthcoming about sharing pictures and IMovies but not music files, for understandable reasons. Thanks.

    I prefer iDVD for image quality of the final slideshow but you can't have KB effect and can only have one type of transition per slideshow. You can have text and music, however. For what you want to do I agree with Terence that PhototoMovie is probably your best bet. It produces some fine quality movie clips. I only used it once quite a while ago so can't make a judgement on if it's easier than iMovie.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

    The Apple USB superdrive would be a great choice for you, ( http://store.apple.com/ca/product/MD564ZM/A/apple-usb-superdrive?fnode=5f ) I am not certain but I am pretty sure that it has the same form factor as the MacMini (Not thickness but all the other dimenetions) so it fits just under and looks like an extension of your mac.

  • What is the best way to keep my personal files stored in iCloud separate from my work-related files?

    What is the best way to keep my personal files stored in iCloud separate from my work-related files? It seems that I'm not allowed to link my iPad mini and my work iMac using two different accounts, so I'm wondering how to make my single personal account work for both, while keeping personal vs work files reasonably separated.
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Is it possible for you to upgrade your account to iCloud Drive? That would mean, all Macs upgraded to Yosemite, and all mobile devices to iOS8?
    See:  iCloud Drive FAQ and iCloud: About using iWork for iOS and iCloud
    In iCloud Drive you could create two separate custom folders, one for work documents and one for private documents and organize your documents there.  Don't use the app specific folders (Keynote, Pages, Numbers, ...) , because you can only create one level of folders inside these folders.

  • What is the best practise to provide a text file for a Java class in a OSGi bundle in CQ?

    This is probably a very basic question so please bear with me.
    What is the best way to provide a .txt file to be read by a Java class in a OSGi bundle in CQ 5.5?
    I have been able to read a file called "test.txt" that I put in a structure like this /src/resources/<any-sub-folder>/test.txt  from my java class  at /src/main/java/com/test/mytest/Test.java using the bundle's getResource and getEntry calls but I was not able to use the context.getDataFile. How is this getDataFile method call to be used?
    And what if I want to read the file located in another bundle, is it possible? or can I add the file to some repository and then access it - but I am not clear how to do this.
    And I would also like to know what is the best practise if I need to provide a large  data set in a flat file to be read by a Java class in CQ5.
    Please provide detailed steps or point me to a how to guide or other helpful resources as I am a novice.
    Thank you in advance for your time and help.

    As you can read in the OSGi Core specification (section 4.5.2), the getDataFile() method is to read/write a file in the bundle's private persistent area. It cannot be used to read files contained in the bundle. The issue Sham mentions refers to a version of Felix which is not used in CQ.
    The methods you mentioned (getResource and getEntry) are appropriate for reading files contained in a bundle.
    Reading a file from the repository is done using the JCR API. You can see a blueprint for how to do this by looking at the readFile method in http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jackrabbit/tags/2.4.0/jackrabbit-jcr-commons/src/main/java /org/apache/jackrabbit/commons/JcrUtils.java. Unfortunately, this method is not currently usable as it was declared incorrectly (should be a static method, but is an instance method).

  • What is the best practice in securing deployed source files

    hi guys,
    Just yesterday, I developed a simple image cropper using ajax
    and flash. After compiling the package, I notice the
    package/installer delivers the same exact source files as in
    developed to the installed folder.
    This doesnt concern me much at first, but coming to think of
    it. This question keeps coming out of my head.
    "What is the best practice in securing deployed source
    files?"
    How do we secure application installed source files from
    being tampered. Especially, when it comes to tampering of the
    source files after it's been installed. E.g. modifying spraydata.js
    files for example can be done easily with an editor.

    Hi,
    You could compute a SHA or MD5 hash of your source files on
    first run and save these hashes to EncryptedLocalStore.
    On startup, recompute and verify. (This, of course, fails to
    address when the main app's swf / swc / html itself is
    decompiled)

  • What's the best way for reading this binary file?

    I've written a program that acquires data from a DAQmx card and writes it on a binary file (attached file and picture). The data that I'm acquiring comes from 8 channels, at 2.5MS/s for, at least, 5 seconds. What's the best way of reading this binary file, knowing that:
    -I'll need it also on graphics (only after acquiring)
    -I also need to see these values and use them later in Matlab.
    I've tried the "Array to Spreadsheet String", but LabView goes out of memory (even if I don't use all of the 8 channels, but only 1).
    LabView 8.6
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    But my real problem, at least now, is how can I divide the information to get not only one graphic but eight?
    I can read the file, but I get this (with only two channels):
    So what I tried was, using a for loop, saving 250 elements in different arrays and then writing it to the .txt file. But it doesn't come right... I used 250 because that's what I got from the graphic: at each 250 points it plots the other channel.
    Am I missing something here? How should I treat the information coming from the binary file, if not the way I'm doing?
    (attached are the .vi files I'm using to save in the .txt format)
    (EDITED. I just saw that I was dividing my graph's data in 4 just before plotting it... so It isn't 250 but 1000 elements for each channel... Still, the problem has not been solved)

  • Does anyone know what is the best version of word I can have on my older mac mini 10.5.8 PPC? I am running Leopard. Does anyone have it or know where I can get it please?

    Does anyone know what is the best version of word I can have on my older mac mini 10.5.8 PPC? I am running Leopard. Does anyone have it or know where I can get it please?

    I agree with Grant. But to answer your question, that would be Word 2008. A quick search turns it up on sale at Amazon. You'll need to find it somewhere other than Microsoft itself, since MS stopped selling it when they released Word 2011.

  • What is the best software/plugin for converting Quark files to Indesign?

    What is the best software/plugin for converting Quark files to Indesign?
    I don't want to upgrade to the latest Quark now i've got CC so going to make the leap to indesign only. Does Indesign auto convert or do I need anything else?

    ID does not load QXD files. There is a respective commercial third-party plug-in to that effect, but it's rather pricey and I'm not up to speed which versions of Quark and ID it supports and which features come over. Inquire in the ID forum.
