Why can't I burn a dvd disc on my macBook pro ?

I transferred some video footage to "iMovie' for editing and when I tried to burn it to a dvd disc, there was no option for that operation. All of the choices were to transfer it to You Tube, of facebook.Can I burn a dvd disc on my macBook pro laptop or not?

If you have a macbook with internal or USB external Superdrive, insert disk, and an option appears for burning files.
Otherwise drop the movie into a folder and click on the settings button of the folder and choose "burn .......to disk"

Why can't I burn a DVD of photos from my iphotos that will be viewable on a PC using windows?

Darned if I know. What exactly are you doing?
The general answer is to select the photo(s) in iPhoto and export to a desktop folder (file menu ==> export). In the finder right click on that folder and burn to disk

Not aware of a 12-inch Intel MBP. Anyway, could you possibly have an old version of flash player on your computer too. Look in the In the Internet Plug-ins folder to be sure you have only one flash player plugin. Path is HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Flash Player.plugin
Also try searching your hard disk for flash.
Some other things to try are in this thread.

Why can't I view embedded flash videos on my MacBook Pro?

I can view videos on Youtube and embedded videos on some sites, but when I try to view embedded Flash videos on sites like CNN.com and NBA.com, I just get a black rectangle and nothing loads. I've tried this on all browsers. BTW, I also cannot open up tinted ads that come up in Google searches. I have the latest version of Flash, and I've deleted browsing data and settings and have checked "Allow sites to save info." I've disabled pop-up window blocker. I have no ad blocking software. I've installed the latest Flip4Mac plugin. I have even set up a new user account and tried these sites with that account to see if the problem goes away (it didn't).
I have a 12 inch 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro with OS 10.8.3 installed (though the problem started when I still had Snow Leopard). I have all the latest browsers and , as I've said above, the latest Flash. I've tried both Java 7 and Java 6. I should also point out that I can access these sites without problem with my office Macbook Pro, which is a 15 inch Core 5, loaded with the same software I have on my problem 12 inch notebook.
Any suggestions?

Error Message while trying to burn a DVD-R with my MacBook Pro: "The disc can't be burned, because the device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media.

While using my Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 to burn a DVD-R I keep getting the error message: "This disc can't be burned, because the device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media."
So, I tried the iDVD and got the same error message.
Can anyone out there help me? I've tried both a DVD - R, and a CD.
I made a short 2:20 minute presentation from iMovie and used the "share" to iDVD, then to iTunes, then I tried exporting it to Quicktime and saved it on my desk top. That is when I tried burning by opening the blank DVD-R in the finder then draging the movie on to it and selecting the burn option. Thank you for your time in helping me with this frustrating problem.
Peace, Pyxidis

I have had that same problem, but it was unrelated to any upgrade.
In my case the optical drive was simply failing, and I replaced it - it was a Powerbook, about eight years old.
It is possible that it's unrelated to Lion, as unlikely as this may seem, since you've just upgraded.
Optical drives seem to be the most life-limited component in these computers. The laser just seems to get weak with age.

Why can't I burn a dvd from idvd? Could it be due to Mountain Lion?

I have upgraded to Mountain Lion. I am now unable to burn a dvd from idvd. Could ml be the problem? I have purchased new media-verbatim DVD-R. I can burn Cds. Help!!!

I solved my issue. I tried three different brands of DVDs and imation finally worked. I had used the others before and they worked perfectly. So what is the deal, but anyway I found one that worked!!!

Why can't I burn a DVD?

Help! I use PE7 and all is well until I try to burn a DVD. At that point, PE7 announces that a problem has occurred and the software closes. I have to reboot my computer to open PE7 again. I use a Dell Dimension 3400 with 2.99 GHz, 1.99 SB RAM. I have placed PE7 on an external drive with a terabyte of memory; hardly any of it used.

A likely cause of this error is that some program did not report memory usage correctly to the OS.
This ARTICLE will give tips on finding "clues" as to what was happening at that moment. Chances are good that that program, or Process is identified somewhere in the Event Viewer. Now, be prepared to do a bit of reading, but follow EVERY link in any of the error, or warning messages.
Good luck,
Hunt

The point is that someone has to program this function and maintain it as well.
This costs money...
There are separate Bluetooth apps available.
An app cannot add Bluetooth profiles that iOS does not have.
OK, that's it then ... no Bluetooth possible in this particular case!

Documents created on my iPhone or iPad go into iCloud with no problem. Why can't I get the documents created on my MacBook Pro to go into iCloud?

Documents created on my iPhone or iPad go into iCloud with no problem and I can then access those documents from any of my "toys". However, documents created on my MacBook Pro do not go into iCloud, and as such, they are not accessable from my iPhone or iPad. How can I get the documents created on my MacBook Pro to go into the cloud?

Reset iCloud sync state
On Mac:
Close open applications
Open a Finder window
Choose “Go to Folder…” from the “Go” menu
Enter “~/Library/Application Support/”
Find the folder named “Ubiquity” and move it to the Trash
Restart your computer

Why can't I use iWork '08 in my new MacBook Pro

I have installed iWork '08, but no cursor shows up. Must I purchase a new iWork for my MacBook Pro? I really only need the word processor.

You can purchase just Pages using the Mac App Store for $19.99. There are also other word processors available for OS X. For example, Libre Office and Neo Office Aqua are free packages each similar to Office for OS X. These and others can be found at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

Why can't I sync my iTunes library from my MacBook Pro to my iPad Mini?

I have just updated my MacBook Pro with the latest iTunes, something I swore I would never do. But I had to do it in order to sync my iTunes library with my new iPad Mini. Unfortunately, after waiting 23 minutes for the software update, I STILL can't sync my music! The only songs I can see on my iPad Mini are songs I've purchased from the iTunes Store...all two of them. The remaining hundreds of songs simply don't show up. C'mon Apple, the reason I use a Mac platform is because it just always works, unlike MicroSucks. Is this what we can expect in a post-Jobs world...?

-_- this is a user to user forum.
Click on your ipad in the upper right- this takes you to your summary page.
click on music tab at the top.
UNcheck all music and apply/sync.
When that is done, REcheck everything, and sync again. This usually works.
