I want to burn a widescreen DVD from NTSC DV material for playback in Shanghai China. Can I just send a regular NTSC Standard DVD? I have FCP 4.5 and DVDSP2.
Do I need to convert my DV timeline to PAL, then export to Compressor, then export to DVD Studio Pro 2 in PAL? What is the thread?
Thanks!If the person you are sending it to has a NTSC Player and Television (many people otuside the U.S. have set ups which can play NTSC as compared to people in the U.S. where there is limited PAL)
You would need to make a PAL project and use PAL assets (m2vs and graphics), there are a few ways to convert things, including Plug-Ins in Final Cut, to conversions in Compressor and quality of the conversions vary.
A good plugin for Final Cut with good results is

Where to buy the install dvd os X 10.6 snow leopard ?
Hi,
I would like to upgrade from os X 10.5 to snow leopard but I could'nt find the link on the apple store anymore, do you know where can we find it ?
I have a mac book pro which is from 2007 I think :
processor : 2.2 ghZ intel core 2 duo
hardrive 120 go
memory RAM : 2go
os X 10.5.8
Is it ok to upgrade to Lion (after finding snow leopard) with this mac ?
thanks !If you need to purchase Snow Leopard you can still purchase a copy from Apple's online store's telesales agents.[1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775.] Ask for a Sales Representative.
Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
Snow Leopard from eBay
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
Snow Leopard General requirements
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory

Where to buy TS-L633P DVD drive
Hey guys, just like the title says, I'm in the market for a new DVD burner for my laptop.
I have a P305D-S8834 Part number PSPD8U-005002
I currently have a TSST Corp. CDDVDW TS-L633P ATA Device (that's what it says in device manager)
But for the life of me I haven't been able to find a site where I can buy one.
I will mention to all that it will burn CDs just fine, will begin to burn DVDs just fine but at about 30% into the burn I get an I/O error and also sometimes get a similar I/O error during a reboot, so I'm pretty sure I need a replacement unless someone can tell me something else to do. I have already updated it's firmware and also updated my BIOS and the problem persists.
Thanks guys for any suggestions!

2 Seagate 320GB 7200 rpm HDD
Solved!
Go to Solution.Thanks for the links guys. I ordered the drive from spare parts warehouse along with some other stuff once I got in touch with someone.

Does anyone know where to obtain snow leopard installation dvd?

However i could not find the installer... does anyone knows where to buy? (not from ebay and amazon). Also, if you guys have one, could you guys gladly offer me one?:)

Where is Snow Leopard? Where buy it on september 2012?
Where is Snow Leopard? Where buy it on september 2012?
I can't call Apple because in France it is a very expensive call number.
This type of phone number is forbidden at my office and not included with my personnal mobile phone contract.
Amazon sells Snow Leopard but the price is not ridiculous.
2 weeks ago, Snow Leopard Family was 50 euros ($ 61) on Apple Store, today, on Amazon, it is 118 euros ($ 145).
And I find Snow Leopard on US Amazon, not on France Amazon.
I don't know if the delivery is possible, i don't find this information.
It' s a very big problem!
I don't understand why Apple stop selling Snow Leopard while there are still people who need them...

Where to buy blank DVD-R 4x?
Hi guys as my laptop burns only dvd-r 4x does anyone know where to buy verbatim dvd-r 4x...
Couldn't find any shop (they only sell 16x). Bought verbatim 1-16x but don't work my laptop is equium A60 with pioneer drive dvr k13a (there is no firmaware update for this drive)Hello
You must not buy empty media that allows just maximum burning speed of your drive. If the maximum burning speed is 4x you can also use 16x empty media. They will be burned with 4x but the result will be the same.
By the way: I use TDK blank DVDs. I am very satisfied. I can really recommend using them.

Upgrade to Snow Leopard but DVD is gone
Hi, i am new user on mac. I have some problem but i think you all can help me. My mac is MacBook Pro 15" bought at 2009, march. then about August/September my OS was upgraded to Snow Leopard. Until yesterday, i bought new hard drive from 320gb to 500gb with clean install also updated to 10.5.8. But the problem is since my Snow Leopard was family pack and the DVD was been taken with my brother (he was on other country) so i couldnt upgrade to snow leopard. so, where can i download the snowleopard files? or is there other way to do it? thanks
Do you still have the 320 GB drive & is it undamaged? If so, an alternative to buying a new DVD or getting your brother to send the family copy back to you is to get an external enclosure for the old drive, mounting it in it, & cloning its contents back to the new 500 GB drive.
Note that this will replace the contents of the 500 GB drive so if you go this way, don't save anything to the new drive you want to keep until you clone the old one to it. There are several utilities that will make the cloning procedure simple. I use & recommend SuperDuper! but carbon Copy Cloner is also popular & well regarded.
The advantage of this approach is that you can pick up right where you left off when you were using the 320 GB drive & once its contents are cloned to the 500 GB drive it becomes a drive useable for Time Machine or whatever.
OTOH, the family pack license is valid for one household, not for one family wherever its members may be. Aside from the licensing aspects, you really should have a Snow Leopard DVD readily available anyway. It contains utilities you may need to run from it from time to time to do certain kinds of repairs.
Doing both is best & is reasonably inexpensive. External USB drive cases are just about as cheap as Snow Leopard itself.

My Leopard install DVD is getting caught in a loop
I'm having a problem with my Leopard install DVD. I'm running Leopard 10.5.7, and I wanted to use Disk Utility, so I inserted the intall DVD, double clicked the icon, and pressed enter to restart using the disk.
What happened next was the computer restarted, gave me the chime, went to a gray screen with no apple logo or spinning gear, then restarted and looped this same sequence repeatedly. I've checked the surface of the install DVD and it seems undamaged, so my only conclusion is that something software related is happening. Anyone else run into this?
The install DVD is version 10.5.1.Okay, so I used Disk Utility on the internal drive to verify and then repair permissions (long list). Then I attempted to verify the disk and got a message saying Disk First Aid Failed and the following info in the history: Verifying volume “Macintosh HD”
Performing live verification.
Checking Journaled HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.
Checking multi-linked files.
Checking Catalog hierarchy.
Checking Extended Attributes file.
Checking volume bitmap.
Checking volume information.
Invalid volume file count
(It should be 956726 instead of 956732)
Invalid volume directory count
(It should be 233009 instead of 233003)
The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.
Error: Filesystem verify or repair failed.
After that, I put the install disk in and restarted holding the shift key. Got the gray screen for a long time (DVD seemed to be doing something), and then the computer restarted. This time I held down the option key, got the Startup Manager and selected the install disk. And away we went with the gray screen loop again. I let it try to restart from the install disk 6 times before holding down the eject button and ejecting the install disk which allowed the 'puter to boot from from the internal drive.
And that's where I stand. -
How do I get free Snow Leopard install DVD so I can then install LION and move to the Cloud?
Hi Robert,
If you are not a mobileme subscriber you will have to buy Snow Leopard install DVD. It is not free.
Good luck,

Hi guys and girls.
Background
I have a MacBook Pro (March 2009 vintage). It was loaded with OS X Leopard on a 250GB HDD. When Snow Leopard was released, I upgraded using a DVD bought from Apple. In time, I added an external USB HDD to use for Time Machine Backups. I am now, however, knocking up against the capacity limit of the original hard drive.
Given the above, plus the fact that I no longer appear to have the Snow Leopard DVD (upgrade version I believe) - what is the recommended way to get back to my old setup (files, OS, settings etc), but with my new, larger HDD?
So far I have tried:
1. Formatting new HDD as Mac OS Extended (journaled), GUID partition having booted using my original (Leopard) installation DVD. I then selected the latest Time Machine (Snow Leopard) backup. After a couple of hours of restoring from that backup, the system restarted, but had kernel errors on bootup.
2. As above, but when formatting, chose to zero all data. This had the same end result.
Questions:
1. Are the kernel errors I'm experiencing due to the mismatch of booting off Leopard and restoring a Snow Leopard backup?
2. Would finding my (or even a) Snow Leopard upgrade DVD help? If so, how?
3. What am I doing wrong generally? I do like to try to understand these things!
4. As above, what is the recommended way of doing what I'm trying to do, given the limitations of release DVDs etc.
Many thanksSimplest thing would be to buy the retail SL installation disc ($20 USD) and use it to do the migration. There might be an issue trying to use a SL TM version with Leopard.

Buying an external DVD burner, what to look for?
Hi, I am buying an external DVD burner in the morning, anything I should look for feature wise, any models which are recommended?
Cheers, S.Patrica, we'll forgive you this once! For future reference at the top of each Discussions Forum section there's a blue "Post a New Topic" link - that's where you start. Anyway as to your problem as to what to do now. You can ignore the "Easy Media Creator" disc - this is an application for Windows machines.
All you need now is a blank DVD to record onto. Usually LaCie include a complimentary DVD-R disc - didn't you get one?
It's useful because it will give you a good idea as to which brand of disc works best with your burner. My LaCie likes Maxell and Verbatim but not TDK even though it's on LaCies's approved list (which you can find on their website). Buy a small pack until you are sure they work OK. Whether you get DVD-R or DVD+R is up to you, but the minus format tends to work better with domestic DVD players.
I don't know what you want to burn onto DVD - is it files or movies? If it's the former you have all the software you need in Disk Utility. As far as I know iDVD on the other hand doesn't work with an external burner (someone please correct me if I'm wrong!) you need to buy something like Toast for that. I notice also that you're in the PowerBook forum although you have an iMac! Does this not have an internal DVD writer? I thought all versions of the G5 had a SuperDrive? My final bit of advice to you would be to get yourself whichever of these http://www.missingmanuals.com/ you feel you might need. Certainly the 10.3 book will help you enormously. Good luck. -
How to buy the official release?
I installed on my Mac mini GM just for try. Now I want to buy an official release for use. But I have statement "installed" at the Lion 10.7
I tried to buy from my all 3 different MBP with SL 10.6.8 installed. The same situation at the app store. Wrong statement "installed". So my questions is how to buy an official release in my situation.
Thank you!Did you get the GM legally? I.e. you were part of the developer release or beta testing.
If not, then reinstall Snow Leopard and then purchase Lion through the Mac App Store. -
Buying an External DVD Burner, but system requirement says Windows
I am thinking about buying an LaCie DVD Burner, but the problem is that the system requirement calls for Windows.
However, since Macs are all plug in play, will it work by just plugging it in, and then running the copy of Toast I already own?Have you considered getting one of their FireWire versions? I know they're pricier, but they fully support them working with OSX.
Here's a review from an Amazon.com of their USB-only desktop drive where the author claims it works fine with OSX and a Core Duo MacBook as well as a MacBook Air. It seems a bit strange since it talks about bus power when I thought it only operated off of external power.
