What is the best program for editing and DVD creation?

I am looking for a software that allows me to create a DVD with menus,etc.   I would prerfer to edit in iMovie and export my video to a DVD software.  But if anyone knows of a better editing system with DVD creation possibilities please let me know!

Better is a very subjective term when it comes to editing and personal preferences play an important role. In any case on the Mac you have these choices:
• Buy iLife with iMovie and iDVD (Amazon, Ebay). This should be able to fulfill most needs.
• Get Adobe CS 6 with Premiere Pro and Encore DVD. Professional software with a learning curve if you come from iMovie
• Get Final Cut Pro X. Shouldn't be too difficult to learn for iMovie users but with very limited DVD authoring
Both have trial versions that you can check out. The cost for FCP X is much lower than that for CS 6.
On a side note, there is also Avid but I can't really say much about it having never used it.

    What is the best program for designing event flyers? I am looking for something basic and simple.

    Poor old Photoshop® is forever being put down when it comes to layout work, but it is perfectly capable, and can output a high quality print PDF the printer will be perfectly happy with.  OK you don't have the text flow between columns bells and whistles of InDesign and [spit] Publisher, but if you have a $10/month Photoshop/Lightroom subscription, instead of the $50/month full subscription, don't think you can't do a perfectly good flyer or poster.

    If you have used FreeHand before it is sill FreeHand of
    course - as long as it works in our OS and there are no new
    features you like to use.
    If you have documents with a lot of text elements and
    multiple pages InDesign may be the second best choice. For
    typography it is the best tool available.
    Illustrator is more for illustrations, although it seems that
    it has good control for type it is clumsy and there are a few major
    bugs that makes it unsuitable for body text.

    I have all CS4 programs and I'm looking to make a header that contains an interactive rollover nav bar. I want the bar to be located within the header. What is the best program for creating the header and rollover buttons. I'm aware i could manipulate the images in other programs, but placement and rollover button creation is what I'm looking for. Thanks. I'm thinking maybe flash or fireworks?

    Spry can do this for you.  See some samples here:

    Or there are commercially available menu systems from the likes of companies like Project Seven, whom I would personally recommend:

  • What is the best program for creating cd inserts for coverart of a  CD?

    I am in a band and need to know the best program for cd artwork.

    If you're more concerned about designing them than about printing them yourself (which would cost a comparative fortune using an inkjet printer, and look crummy using a color laser printer), then Photoshop and Illustrator are by far the best design tools available.

    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility.  For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior;  DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. Drive Genius provides additional tools not found in Disk Warrior.  Versions 1.5.1 and later are Intel Mac compatible. An outstanding source of information is OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.)
    If you are using a pre-Leopard version of OS X, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.  Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger.  (These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion and should not be installed.)
    OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
    I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack.  If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line.  Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. (There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion or later.)
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
      1. Carbon Copy Cloner.
      2. Data Backup
      3. Deja Vu
      4. SuperDuper!
      5. SyncTwoFolders
      6. Synk Pro
      7. Synk Standard
      8. Tri-Backup
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
    Always have a current backup before performing any system updates or upgrades.

    Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity or 20 GBs, whichever is greater, as free space.
