Why can't my DVD play on other players?

I just completed a DVD in DVD Studio Pro. When I inserted into my computer, it plays fine. However, when I tried pa=laying it on 2 other DVD decks in the house, it was not recognized. Where do I go from here to fix the compatibility?

BINGO! That's what it was. Unfortunately, I found where I change from HD DVD to SD DVD and it will only change on NEW projects. So I will need to re-construct this DVD in DVD Studio Pro. Thanks for the tip.

  • HT2801 Why doesn't my dvd play in the usb superdrive?  I have a Retina Display Macbook 15"

    I have a 15" Macbook Pro w/ retina display.  Why doesn't the dvd play in the external usb superdrive?

    Again, it's a regularly purchased (Hollywood or so) movie DVD, yes? And it's not only this one DVD, but every other as well, yes? Please confirm.
    If so, it's the DVD Player app that hangs for whatever reason, and not a broken drive.
    Not that it's a "final solution", but just to see if you can generally play DVD's on this machine, would you mind installing and trying MPlayerX to play a DVD? It's a little app from the App Store, free of charge and much used around the globe. (Actually, you may want to keep it as it plays many more different formats...)
    Edit: Forgot to say that you will probably need to launch the DVD manually from MPlayerX, most likely after the DVD Player app crashed again.
    Let us know what MPlayerX does. And still, don't forget confirming the above, thanks.

  • After I burn a dvd it won't play in other players?

    After I burn a dvd on my Mac, why won't it play in other players?

    first, you might have better luck in the correct forum. this is for Mac Pro's
    here's the one you want
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/notebooks/macbook_pro
    Do you want to burn a data DVD or a Movie DVD? If it's the 2nd one, then get iDVD or another movie dvd making application. Most computers don't have that capability
    "naturally", you have to go out and get something that'll let you do that

    What system and iPhoto version are you running and do you have Qjuicktime Player 7 installed. It would be in the Applications or Applications/Utilities folder.

    Why can't I receive sms from other phones ?

    Try going to setting->general->reset-> reset network settings. And see if that works.
    You may also want to contact your carrier and see if there is anything funny going on with your profile.
    Best of luck let me know if this helps.

    That statement is false. Copied directly from the iTunes Store Terms and Conditions:
    "The iTunes Service is available to you only in( Insert country name here). You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance."
    You need to be physically located in the country, its territories or possessions whose store you are trying to use.

  • Why can't i sync songs from other sources in my library into my iPhone?

    why can't i play songs from other sources in my liberay that i sync in my phone

    Un-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.

  • Why doesn't my DVD play in a DVD Player?

    OK...frustration has set in....
    I finally got a DVD out of a week's worth of effort, but when I put it in a DVD player I get nothing!
    I'm using Sony DVDs (Memorex was even more of a nightmare). How do I get my movie burned correctly?
    I built the DVD straight from an HD mp4, and it plays just fine in the Mac, but the DVD player doesn't recognize my effort...HELP!!!!

    Hello, Mikemacx,
    Just for information, what are you burning to DVD? Video, photo slideshows?
    Can you burn a disk image from your iDVD project? (From within your iDVD project, select File->Save as Disc Image). This will look like the burn process and take just as long for the encoding, but the end result is a disk image file, not a burned DVD disk. You can test out this disk image file by clicking on it to open/mount it, then open the application DVD Player. The project should begin playing on your computer. If it plays correctly, then the disk image has been successfully created. You can use it to burn the actual DVD disk using Disk Utility )or Toast, if you prefer that).
    The advantage of a disk image file is that it is a self-contained file. You can safely move, change or delete all the original files/videos/photos used in the project and still retain the ability to burn DVD disks of this project in the future. A disk image saves wear on the iDVD project, which is not self-contained, but merely aliases pointing to the actual media. Sometimes there are glitches in iDVD's retrieval of the media.
    A disk image can be easily moved to another drive for storage, or to another computer.
    Do use a good brand of DVD-R disk, such as Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden. Sonys are also usually good.
    Memorex and TDK are not recommended here because their disk layers are thinner; more likely to produce burning/playback problems. I must add that I have noticed recently that the Memorex disks seem thicker, but I have not gone back to them since my first DVD burn. I use Verbatim gold archival DVD-R SL disks, burn at 4x or 2x, and have not had a problem with my DVD disks playing on most players.
    Often it is the DVD player itself that is the problem. Trying your burned DVD on several players may prove that the disk is fine; the player is not. One of my DVD players would not read the audio tracks correctly, but the Sony always worked fine.
    Burn at a slow speed to get a more consistent burn. Choose 4x or slower.
    Post back if these suggestions do not resolve your issues.

  • Why can I not order music from other countries

    Hello,
    why can I not order music from either germany or austria if the canadian itunes does not have it?
    I don't mind paying in euros or paypal, which ever.
    I think the stores should be compatable or should allow buying from another country.
    Thanks, Ingo

    The short answer is that the content owners do not allow Apple to sell content across country borders. It's not by Apple's choice.
    Regards.

  • Why can't Safari be like the others?

    Why oh why can't Safari be like Firefox who allows you to organize or view your bookmarks by name or jazz up your toolbar? These are such little things in the grand scheme of browser design. Don't they know that Mac users are colorful and creative and would really really really like a little help getting organized? Why should I be forced to use another browser simply because I want these simple features? Come on Apple, meet the competition - I'm feeling punished for my loyalty!

    Hi Again Emlanie.
    I'm suspecting that maybe you were hoping for that really cool import bookmarks feature that FF has. I Iike that myself. 'POOF' it's done! But I don't like it enough to use FF as my main browser. Mulder was right... it really depends on what you want out of it. And as I told you before, I like it clean and simple.
    BUT, if you want bookmarks in Safari, it's really no big deal. Trust me, I set these up my first week of ever using any computer... so I'm pretty sure you can do it.
    My suggestion for setting up Bookmarks would be:
    1.) Decide how you want to categorize your bookmark 'headers' in the bookmarks bar. I do mine by subject: Restaurants, Tickets, Banking and so on. This makes it easier when you add a bookmark, and is more conducive to looking for one later, if you have alot of them as I do.
    2.) Go to Bookmarks in the Safari menu bar and click on 'Show All Bookmarks'. Proceed to make the folders you'll need with your header titles on them by using the '+ add folder' button at the bottom of the left hand column. Make them all.
    3.) Once your done, proceed to drag each folder to the column on the right, starting at the top, and in the order you want them on your Bookmarks Bar. The top will show as the left side of your BM bar and so on to the right. I do mine alphabetically. You may choose to do it by favorites or most frequently visited, whatever. As you drag each folder to the right column in the order you want, it is automatically placed on your BM bar. Now all you have to do is add bookmarks.
    I've checked FF and there is no export feature to Safari (only import, nice trick :o) So, you can add your bookmarks by just visiting your sites and then 'add bookmark' then all you have to do is choose which (already waiting) folder to place it in. Really easy. And I've got loads of bookmarks!
    So.... if you decide you want to try Safari for a bit and see if you like it, I hope this helps a little.
    Good Luck and Have Fun!
    MWN :o)

  • Can't Connect to online games / other players Wii U

    I can browse the internet and see other people online on my wii u via wifi but i cant connect to online games of mario kart 8 and people cant connect to my games of mario kart 8. There is a lot going around about how poor telstra is for supporting this but I want to play mario kart 8 online, if I can't do that on telstra then I will take my business elsewhere.

    Leigh-M,
    BigPond does not provide support for 3rd party devices such as the WiiU. If you are experiencing difficulties your first point of contact would be Nintendo.
    Can you confirm what troubleshooting steps you have done?
    Have you made sure you have the latest firmware updates?
    Confirmed that there are no ports that need to be opened to do this?
    Have you tried manually configuring the DNS servers to those of other states or using Googles public DNS?
    Have parental controls been disabled?
    Are you able perform a traceroute to the server?

  • Why can't my z10 play some mp4 videos send from other phone or computer

    Unable to play mp4 video

    I'm not sure why that would be. You could try rebooting your phone to see if that helps. Press and hold your power button for about 15 seconds until BlackBerry appears on the screen. Don't release it before you see BlackBerry, despite what else shows up before that.
    I hope that helps you.

  • Why can only apple DVD player do so well?

    This is a slow computer. Pismo laptop G3 500mhz. I don't understand why only Apples DVD player can play so well and at the same time use less than half the CPU. Trying to use any other player for DVD.s will result in skips and 100% CPU usage. Even when one plays any kind of movie file AVI , mov. etc with any compatible player, the computer at its best is at 100% usage and some performance issues. The difference between using apple's player for DVD ,s or video TS folders is so huge, that it can only be because of a well written code. Why did not others follow apple?

    Region encoding is what the motion picture studios use to control the worldwide release of their movies. Apple limits the region change / settings to 5 times. The only way around this is to install a new motherboard....sorry.
