Why does brasero not burn a DVD?

I have a DVD to burn, but every time I run Brasero I get a message to insert an empty disk or otherwise it will attempt to make an image. With the empty disk inserted seems like brasero does not see the device and disk.
With my external DVD writer connected I can't burn anything to it. The user is added to optical group and the device is found. Growisofs however works with the provided path. Why does brasero not see the writer and how do I make it burn the dvd?

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,

Why does Encore not recognize my DVD burner?

I recently purchased Encore to complete a video editing project I've been working on, and for some reason the software will not recognize the external DVD burner I have connected to my computer. The burner is not that old, so I don't see why Encore would show that no device was attached, especially when the computer itself recognizes the external drive. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone have any solutions? Few things are as frustrating as having software/hardware issues for no apparent reason. Thanks!

Why does mac not accept blank dvd

My mac book pro keeps ejecting balnk dvd. even when accepted icon for dvd not showing on desktop.
please help

What do you have your preferences set for under System Preferences>CDs & DVDs?
Here are mine:
I have mine set to Open Finder when I insert a blank DVD because I mainly use DVDs to make backups. This way I can just drag files and folders to the DVD and burn them as a data DVD.
How are your preferences set?

I am using DVD Studio Pro and every time I try to burn a sd dvd it is telling me my bit rate is to high. I am using the factory settings for sd 16:9. Why will it not burn my dvd?

Button Four

DVD SP will compress the video if you have not already. However, it is usually better for you to make use of Compressor and compress the video yourself. That being said, the usual reason for the bitrate being too high error is that the audio is causing it. In Compressor you need to also compress your audio to a AC3 file. Start with the Dolby 2.0 preset and make the following changes;
Change the Dialog Normalization to -31 dBFS, and under the Preprocessing tab, change to Compression Preset to None.

Why can't I burn a DVD of photos from my iPhoto that will be viewable on a Windows computer?

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

Why does 'User not registered for online use' show up when I try to import a cd into itunes. None of the cd info shows up either

Why does 'User not registered for online use' show up when I try to import a cd into itunes? None of the cd info shows up either.

Well, the format I upload from the camera is "video clip" or "video for Windows"...sometimes I've converted them to avi format, too. But as I said, it never even lets me get that far...I never get to even select a clip. As soon as I tell the program to "import/clip" it freezes up before I can even go to the folder that the clips are in. It has only begun to do this recently, and I'd never had any problems like this before. Last night I tried it again, and I clicked "open composition", and it froze when I did that too.
I'm not sure how much more specific I can be about the details of the clips, since I'm positive it has nothing to do with the clips themselves...I'm running Windows XP, though...Home Edition Service Pack 2, Pentium 4 CPU 2.80GHz, with 504 MB of RAM. I have had the automatic updates turned on since I did my last reformat a couple of weeks ago. Could it have something to do with some kind of an update it may have done?

Put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

i just purchased a file that had videos in it. i put them in the itunes library on my pc where i first downloaded them. i was able to transfer them to my other pc, a laptop, through my home network. i am now trying to get them on my mac pro desktop and my ipad2. my mac pro can see the other computers on my home network but i cannot get it to connect to them. i know the operating systems are different but was hoping i could transfer pictures and files from pc to mac this way. haven't been able to get it to work yet. the videos i am trying to get my mac to see came in a folder with both mac and pc versions. i thought if i got the videos i purchased into itunes that i would then be able to get them to my mac pro and my ipad2. i am new to mac/apple and have always been pc-centric so trying to marry it all has been difficult. i speak pc pretty well but am just learning apple. am i trying to do things that are not possible? i sure could use a knowledgable friendly soul to walk me through my issues of having pc and mac on the same network. i have been able to get all computers and ipad to print on my network. thanks.

HT204406 I have subscribed to match on iTunes and organized my music on my Mac Book. Why does it not appear the same way on my iPad

I would like my music to appear organized in the same way on my iPad as I have done it on my Mac Book. (and on my iPhone as well) Since it is in the cloud, why does it not appear the same way in all devices?

The purpose of iTunes match is to make your music library available to all of your devices anywhere. It will sync Playlists, but no other type of organization you may have made.
If you're having trouble, be sure you are logged into the same Apple ID on all devices but be sure to read this article and pay special attention to associating your devices with an Apple ID. There are important restrictions you should know about.

I just bought more icloud storage, why does it not let me backup my iPhone 5..says i need 1.4 GB of space

i just bought more icloud storage, why does it not let me backup my iPhone 5..says i need 1.4 GB of space?..I just bought 10 more in icloud.

I think you are confused. Syncing apps and music to your phone will not get store in the cloud by adding more cloud storage. If you don't have enough space to sync the music and apps, buying cloud storage won't help. If you have a 16GB phone, the phone still only has 16GB for apps and music even if you buy 10 mor GB of cloud storage.

Hi,
Date arithmetic only works with DATEs.
If you want to do something similar with TIMESTAMPs, use NUMTODSINTERVAL:
SELECT TO_CHAR ( TO_TIMESTAMP ('1/1/2012', 'DD/MM/YYYY') + NUMTODSINTERVAL (.733409047, 'DAY')
, 'HH24:MI:SS.FF'
FROM dual
;Here's exactly what's happending:
When you say "d + n", d is supposed to be either a NUMBER or a DATE. When you pass any other datatype, Oracle tries to convert d to either a NUMBER or a DATE. In this case, d was a TIMESTAMP; Oracle realized that it could convert that TIMESTAMP into a DATE, and did so. The 1st argument to TO_CHAR, therefore, was a DATE, but '.FF' only works with TIMESTAMPs.
There are a couple of things about how Oracle handles this that I find annoying, but I don't know of any better work-around.
