When was iDVD removed from iLife?

I acquired a late 2011 17 inch Macbook Pro (Lion 10.7.3) in April of 2012. I am not sure whether iLife in that version came with iDVD or not. Can any one tell me if it did? Unfortunately I didn't try to burn a DVD until after upgrading to 10.7.5 and I'm wondering if iDVD was removed in that upgrade.

They didn't kill iDVD to force people to buy iCloud. The two are completely unrelated. iDVD was dropped most likely because there were free or low cost alternatives on the market and it would cost too much to rewrite iDVD to compete.
You were ripped off because you bought iLife on Amazon.com without properly researching. The issue of iDVD being omitted from future iLife updates had been widely discussed long before you bought your Mac. Had you asked here first we would probably have suggested buying iLife '09 Boxed Set. Unfortunately, much of it would not be updatable after Lion's 10.7.4 release.
I would hardly call one piece of software a demanding reason to return to Windows. You are now on a new platform with different software. Much about it you don't know. It's all a learning experience, just as it was for Windows.

  • My ipad2 crashes when it is removed from the power supply. It  can't be reset?

    My ipad2 crashes when it is removed from the power supply. It can't be reset? Doesn't respond when plugged into my pc?

    Hrm... that may be true and this may be a function of the phone email client that Apple just doesn't do.
    No, I can easily MANUALLY delete the messages. I would prefer if I didn't have to do it twice, tho. Once on the mail server and once on the phone.
    What I think the phone needs to do is, when it checks the POP, anything NOT there should be removed locally. I think you are correct on POP; the phone will poll the mx (mail exchanger) and the mx will pass off the messages to the phone. The phone then keeps ALL of that unitl you manually delete it.
    If, say, I remove a message from the mx, I would like the phone, when next polls, to see that that particular message isn't on the server anymore and remove it locally.
    Perhaps it's just me but if I delete the message on the mx itself, via my ISP's webmail interface, I really don't want to have to remove it again from my phone.
    thxs!

  • Why was RSSI removed from iOS4?

    It appears that the Field Test Mode has been removed from iOS4 which also prevents owners from accessing their RSSI levels. The RSSI level provides a much better indication of the cellular wireless service signal strength than the signal strength bars. Why has this feature been removed from my 3G phone with iOS4, and is there a better way to monitor signal strength that will not use bars that work on a faulty algorithm?

    If you developed a phone that had "signal strength issues" that you were blaming on a mis-calibrated "bars" display, would you want to have a direct signal strength display as well, letting users verify that claim for themselves?

  • Why was formatting removed from Export to Excel when exporting from PWA 2013?

    We have recently moved from using Project Server 2007 to Project Server 2013 and one thing that we have noticed is that when we Export to Excel all the formatting has been removed and all the task grouping and alignment has been flatted. 
    Why did Microsoft remove this feature from the Project Server 2013?
    Is there an easy way for anywhere there is an Export to Excel option on the Ribbon to add the formatting back?
    What is the best solution to still retain the indents, bolding, and grouping?

    Jason --
    I can confirm your findings with exporting PWA pages in Project Server 2013 to Excel.  As to why Microsoft removed the feature previously found in Project Server 2007, I have no idea, as I do not work for Microsoft.  I do not believe there is any
    way to force the Export to Excel feature to work the same in 2013 as it did in 2007.  I think it will be up to the user to format the exported Excel workbook as needed.  Hope this helps.

  • Change? in iDVD OneStep from iLife '09 to iLife '11

    I used iDVD OneStep with my Panasonic Digital Movie Camera to quickly back-up to DVD's. I recently upgraded to iLife '11. While iDVD recognizes the camera as attached, it does not recognize the content on the camera to download and create a DVD. Did something change in the most recent version to iLife '11 in regards to iDVD OneStep? Any suggestions to get around this?

    Hi GenoMacProUser
    Welcome. I see no one has yet addressed your question / concern here. So I'll give it a shot. Keeping in mind I don't yet have iLife'11 since I'm still working with iLife'09 on a Dual G5 2.0 PPC. So I'm not speaking from direct experience here but rather from the replies and threads I've seen posted on this forum. It would appear or rather it has been suggested by at least one member on this forum, that there has been one significant change based on these comments. That is, when referring solely to iDvd's One Step. In the past iDvd's One Step was the only option for making a Dvd with No Menu whatsoever. I'm not 100% certain you can do this any more within iLife'11. Or at least I've read where the app now generates a "hidden" menu even in one step. I can't verify this myself. I'll have to wait and see from feedback from others who actually use the latest version /iLife'11 as opposed to earlier versions.
    If the above is correct (big if) then I could see where this might also have an effect on device (camera/s) recognition and on the content recognition of said cameras. Some newer models of camcorders and cameras will be added while other older models may eventually be dropped. Seems logical anyway. Again, this is just a guess on my part.

  • How to load IDVD (only) from ILife'11

      I am waiting on delivery of ILife '11 package. How do I install (only) IDVD from this package? I have IOS Mountain Lion and it came with IMovie,Iphoto and Gagageband.  I believe they are included in ILife'11 along with some other apps.  My need is for IDVD.  Should I be aware of any pitfalls, when trying to load only IDVD?  I am a novice to a Mac and please offer suggestions, put to simple terms. Thanks.

  • Why Can't I get Idvd window up to drag movie from iMovie. OS 10.8.5  idvd is from iLife '11

    Have just bought update iLife 11 and installed idvd.  When I open it, it just spins 'load themes'. I dont want to use the themes - I just want the Idvd window to come up so I can drag the movie into it, loop it and burn the dvd.
    Thannks for your help - I don't know much about this stuff!

    Themes must be installed and used for iDVD to work. It's the nature of the beast.
    Did you do a custom install?  Check in your HD/Library/Application Support folder to see if there's an iDVD folder.  If it's not there check in your Home/LIbrary/Applications Support folder.  This folder is invislbe since Lion so you'll need to do the following:
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible in Lion or Mt. Lion enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    For Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Optionsmenu to bring the this window:
    I suggest you move the application to the Trash bin in the Dock and reinstall iDVD from the iLife 11 disk under the Customize option or use the demo version of Pacifist and do a customize install of iDVD which will include the themes.

  • Can't open iDVD v7 from iLife 08 on Lion?  Please help

    I just got a new iMac pre loaded with Lion.  I had iLife 08 on my old 2008 MacBook Pro.  I did a custom install with the iLife disk and only installed iDVD.  It placed it in the application folder but when i try to open it i get an error message saying I cant use this version on MAC OS X.  Then it says i have version 7, which i thought was the latest version.  Is it possible to have idvd on this iMac?

    Roxio Toast is great, it allows you to burn DVD's in standard definition and in high definition. However, it is also very bare bones... Many of the features that you may like in iDVD, are missing in Roxio Toast.

  • Downloading iDVD only from  iLife software

    Being as I dont have iDVD included  I looked at ebay and saw there was an iLife 09 on offer but before buying it, I wondered what would happen in the downloading process or whether i can single out iDVD as I dont wish to lose any of my current iLife applications? thank you

    If you purchase the boxed iLife 09 disc  you can do a custom install with it and install only iDVD.
    Then apply the latest iDVD 7 updaters to get all of the most recent features and themes.

  • How do I recover a device that was accidentally removed from my iTunes in the Cloud account?

    While removing old devices from my iTunes in the Cloud account, I accidently removed my current iPhone 5s from the list.  I have saved closed out of the "manage account" window yet but don't see how to go back and undo this mistake.  Is there a way to reverse this before closing out of this or do I have to re-install device?

    Try going to Settings>iTunes & App Store and enabling Automatic Downloads while signed into the Apple ID you were managing.  (If it's enabled, turn it off, then back on.)  That should add the device to iTunes in the Cloud for the ID.

  • What will happen when Zen7 is removed from eDir?

    We are migrating to ZENworks 10. We are almost finished, but there are a handful of workstations that have not got the update, due to individual computer issues or laptops that aren't plugged in frequently.
    The E directory administrators would like to uninstall/remove ZENworks 7 from the directory.
    We are using Group policies, DLU, and some NAL objects.
    NAL is no big deal since the user has to run those.
    The absence of DLU should be fine I think since the users already have accounts on the local computer. But once they update their edir password it won't sync. Which is OK, because they'll call the helpdesk and we'll update them to zen10.
    Big question, what will happen to the group policies? Will they continue to work locally off a cache or will they cease to work all together?
    Are there any other problems to forsee?

    There is no supported way to "contract" the eDirectory schema from it
    being extended to support ZENWorks.
    You can delete all of the ZENWorks related objects though: NAL Apps,
    Policy packages, workstations, inventory, etc. Then, disable the
    startup of the ZENWorks services. Finally, remove the ZENWorks plug-ins
    from ConsoleOne (or drop C1 altogether if you don't use GW).

  • Where is Rescue and Recovery 4.50 for Windows 7 and why was it removed from the support site?

    When Rescue and Recovery 4.51 was released a few weeks ago, all references to the previous version were replaced. Unfortunately, the new release is not supported on the R series machines nor on the earlier T series machines, so for those machines, the only version of Rescue and Recovery for Windows 7 that is available is version 4.30.0027 which was released in September 2009.
    This makes no sense.
    Please re-instate the documentation and download links for Rescue and Recovery 4.50 for all machines which were supported on that release but are not on version 4.51.

    Thank you for your response.
    The R61 and the R500 that I own, that are currently running Windows XP are staying there until Microsoft stops supporting Windows XP, at which point I will decide what to do with them, so trying 4.51 on them is not currently an option.
    As an IT professional, I tend to be the support guy for all the Lenovo computers in my family. My son also has an R500, which was purchased used, and it came with Windows 7. When I set it up for him, I installed Rescue and Recovery 4.5 over 4.3 before taking the original full system image backups.  He would loose the capability to use those backups if I were to try to downgrade that machine to Rescue and recovery 4.3. My own R500 came with Rescue and Recovery 4.30.0025, (for which there is no documentation nor download links available, to my knowledge), and I have never upgraded it, because I am concerned that all my backups would become unreadable if I did. I don’t think it is worth the effort to make all the external bootable backups that upgrading the software would require. I would upgrade if I was assured that version 4.30.0027 could read the backups taken by version 4.30.0025.
    There were 2 more versions of Rescue and Recovery. There was version 4.31.007 released on 2010/09/28 and version 4.31.011 released on 2011/03/04. The document ID’s for release 4.51 are the same as those for the 4.31 releases, so I should assume that Lenovo considers the 4.31 releases a major advance over the 4.30 release, and thus not a valid fallback option but why not?

  • Calendar not updating on Iphone when items are removed from Outlook calendar.

    Recently a couple of my board members purchased IPhones and IPads. And I have set them up the best I can. If they create a calendar entry on the IPhone or IPad it will show up in Outlook right away. However if they or one of their admins log onto their Outlook calendars and remove a schedule meeting the entry will not delete off the IPhone or IPads. I know there is a 15 minute sync on the devices but I have tested them after hours and days and the entries are still on the calendars on the mobile devices. This creates serious issues when people show up to meetings and destinations that have been cancled days in advanced. If anyone knows anything about how to fix this please let me know.

    Do they log directly into the account or come in with proxy/delegate access?
