Why doesn't a blank DVD show in finder?

Hello,
I insert a blank dvd with a view to burn one photo on it and it doesn't show in Finder! There is absolutely nothing wrong with the dvd.
Also, I have one photo saved on the desktop and I just want to burn that one only. Can I do that? If so, how?

OK, when it asked what to do with the blank dvd, I did no click 'open finder'. Guess I should've done that.
As for the photo, simply drag and drop it into the dvd drive. Duh. Ignore this topic. Thanks, bye!

Ask a fifth time, and maybe the answer will appear.
Are the notes actually in iCloud? If you go to iCloud.com and log in, do you see them there? If so, it's an issue on your computer side. If not, then the notes don't exist on the server.

Why doesn't my lost iPhone show up on the 'find me' map?

Many things can prevent this: the phone is out of battery power, the phone has been wiped out and is no longer connected to your mobile me account, and many more.

Why doesn't Mail for IOS show sent items?

Why doesn't Mail for IOS show sent items with an IMAP server account. Everything else works okay but there is two sent directories and no contant in any of them ...
Trouble is the same in both iPhone4 and iPad.
Exactly the same account shows everything on my Macintosh. Including Sent items.

Using the method described above I see outgoing messages that were sent from Mail on my iMac in the correct mailboxes for 2 different MobileMe accounts.
You seem to be having and issue where your database/setting are corrupted if your messages are in the wrong outbox. I would suggest deleting the accounts from your iPad and the reconfiguring them.
While viewing an email at the top of the screen, left of the trash icon, you should se a Folder icon. Click on that to send the message to another folder. Page 59 of the manual http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ipad_2_user_guide.pdf

A message is marked as unread - so why doesn't the Inbox count show it?

There is a message marked as unread (the little blue ball) in an IMAP account's inbox.
So why doesn't the Inbox show a (1) next to it to indicate there are unread messages?

Thanks for your replies, people.
I actually just created this IMAP account about a week ago.
Yesterday I deleted a separate, POP3 account and recreated it as IMAP. At that time everything got re-indexed (at least the activity window was going on forever about rebuilding and reindexing this and that).
Rebuilding from the Mail menu doesn't help.
I might try removing and re-adding the IMAP account or the entire re-index later if I find this behavior annoys me too much. Will that lose my replied-to indicators?
So anyway, what I am seeing is not normal? If you go to a message and mark it "unread" does your Inbox for that account go up by 1?
Thanks,

Why doesn't my Sent mail show up in iCloud on my iPhone?

Why doesn't mail I have sent from a MacBook show u in the Sent folder of my iCloud account on my iPhone ? There isn't anything in the Sent folder on the phone. Aren't they supposed to sync?

Does your MacBook have "Store sent messages on the server" set in your iCloud account? It should, if you want the iPhone to be able to see messages sent from the MacBook.

Blank DVDs show up as read-only (can't burn DVDs)

When I insert a blank DVD, the disk utility opens and it says the disk's capacity is 0 bytes, and it is read-only. The disk also doesn't mount, I have to eject it through the disk utility.
I have tried two brands that have worked in the past, one is DVD-R, and the other is DVD+RW. I haven't tried to burn a DVD in at least six months, so I don't know what software or settings are different since then.

I usually repair permissions after updates for that reason, but I did so again anyway and rebooted with the same result.
But when I created a new account and inserted a blank disk I was asked what to do with it so I opened it with Disk Utility to see what it says about the disk. It still said, "size 0 bytes, read-only" even though when I inserted the disk it said, "You've entered a blank disk, what would you like to do?"
So I guess at some point, 1) I set blank DVDs to open automatically in Disk Utility, and 2) for some reason Disk Utility says blank disks are read-only (or when that happens you can't write to the disk)
Anyway, all I had to do was set blank DVDs to open in the Finder. I'm burning a DVD right now.
Thanks for the help.

Why doesn't library on iphone show up in itunes library on computer

Why don't all iphone apps show up in itunes library ( I installed 10.7 itunes prog if that makes any difference)

Radio is now grouped in with the Music section and appears on the right side of the list at the top.

Blank DVD not in Finder 10.8.3

I have a MacPro4,1. Since I upgraded to 10.8.3 I can not see my blank DVD or CD in Finder or on the Desktop. I tried resetting the SMC and the NVRAM and that does not work. The only thing that works is to restore to 10.8.2 from TimeMachine?
Does anyone have a good suggestion?

You also need to enable CD and DVD in the Finder preferences so that they will show mounted.

Why doesn't itunes 11 (Win) show us the length of podcasts? Only new ones d/l thru it show, and even then not - when I can use an old version (10) and it shows me much more info. Am I missing a setting? Thanks!!!

Cannot see or sort podcasts via itunes 11 (Win) like I could in iTunes 10 .. am I missing something? Same goes for playlists. I often take old-time-radio music and/or shows and need them in date-order to make them work (say, ep 1 is one date, ep 2, etc - among dozens of titles). IS there is a setting or did Apple just get rid of it? I have a laptop with iTunes 10 but have tried to get used to the newer versions on my Mom's PC. I don't want to update until I can use it the same way.
Serial radio must be in order. And I have to at least see that in the display to put it in a playlist. Podcasts that show dates from several years ago in ver. 10 no long show anything like it now. Nor, btw, does length of file play. I use it as an over night "podcast radio" and need it to make sense. aIf I need extra steps outside of iTunes okay. Just wish Apple had made it clear and it hasn't.
Thanks!

Once you do get things working... Hardware crashes or virus infections happen, so you should buy software to make a full backup of your hard drive to an external USB hard drive... plus, making step-by-step backups during a new install or major program addition makes it easy to go back a step if something doesn't work
This backup and then restore is, of course, only to the same computer with a new drive (or the same drive as long as you don't mind writing over everything) since doing a restore to a new computer won't work due to Windows and many programs having activation information that is keyed to your hardware (which is why Windows will force you to RE-Activate if you change very much hardware)
The product I use is at http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/image-for-linux.htm
Image runs off of a bootable CD via Linux (the Zip you download includes a program to make the bootable CD) and it reads EVERYTHING on the drive, even the hidden registration information, so everything is restored when needed... and you may restore the image to a brand new drive in case of a crash, and not have to re-install anything
Please note that I own no part of Image, and I don't get a referral fee (that is just a plain web link) but I use the program and it has saved me a LOT of trouble when I had a hard drive die... and I was able to restore everything and not have to re-install or re-activate a single program, from Windows on up

Why doesn't my iPad mini show as a device in iTunes?

I just got a new iPad mini and was planning to sync my iTunes library to it. I've never had issues with syncing my iPod and I understand how to sync and choose playlists. BUT: when I connect my iPad to my computer, the iPad never shows up as a device detected by iTunes. ALSO: It will not allow me to copy over any music manually. I would prefer to not use iCloud, as the iPad and the iPod are the only Apple products I own. I have already downloaded my purchased iTunes onto the iPad, but really would like to grab some of my imported files as well!
The only thing to note: when I last logged into iTunes on the computer, it found an update. However the update did not complete and gave me an error. I've tried multiple times to update it, but it keeps erroring out (does not say what the problem is). Other than this, could there be any reason why iTunes on my computer doesn't detect my new iPad mini??

Are you using iTunes 11?

DVD drive doesn't recognize blank DVDs or allow burns

I got a 20", 2.4 Ghz Intel Imac not too long ago, with Leopard already installed. I'd been using Parallels or Boot Camp to do all by DVD burning in Windows until recently. The first time I tried to do it in OSX 10.5.1, it didn't work right. The DVD icon does not show up on the desktop, though it's acknowledged when it's inserted, and a box pops up asking for me to perform an action. But I can't get it to burn a simple data DVD through disk utility, or even in DVD Studio Pro. I saw other threads about this, wondering if anyone has a solution. A file ending in .plist was mentioned, that you should move from its folder if you find it. I didn't find it. What else can I do? Works fine in Windows through Boot Camp or Parallels, and once a disc has something on it, it'll show up when put in the DVD drive. It's only blanks that are "invisible".

You issue sounds similiar to all of us in the other chat thread. Go to "MATSHITA superdrive has died" and post your comments there, perhaps more people post, it might get Apple's attention.

Why doesn't a saved slide show in PSE-6.0 show in Organizer?

Two questions:
1-I've created a few slide shows in Photoshop Elements 6.0 (running Windows Vista-64) and until recently have been able to find and reopen/edit them in Organizer. For some reason none are showing at top of Organizer, even though I can find the file in folder Adobe:/PhotoshopElements/Catalogs/CIB Catalog/Projects. I've even reinstalled PSE6.0 and still won't show newly created slide show projects. Any ideas of what I need to do to be able to create, save and then go back to work on a slide show? My goal is to create a slide show to copy to a DVD for viewing on a TV and don't want to try and do this all in one session.
2-Why are the photos not linked to the correct folder when I try to open and edit it, even after I've just reinstalled PSE-6.0? I don't want to go thru the Browse option to relink up the thumbnail to the original photo.
Thanks very much in advance and I looked up previous discussions about "slide shows" but didn't see this discussed, so sorry if this question has already been covered.

For the slidehshow thumbnail --
I have always been able to find my slideshow thumbnail in the Thumbnail view as long as I had the Media Types to display set to include projects/creations. I would not expect to find the slideshow thumbnail using Folder Location and definitely not using Import Batch (because a slide show is not part of an import batch) . You did not post your current setting for Media Types, so I suggest that you investigate its setting.
However, your problem with the photos showing on the Z drive is probably more serious
One odd thing I've just noticed is that all files in PSE-6 show the
files being on the "Z" drive, but they are on the "C" drive in Windows
Explorer. I am using a cloud based storage service (Trend Micro's
SaveSync) and it designates the "Z" drive as the cloud drive, so this is
odd.
My second question is related to all my photos, not
just ones I've tried to organize into a Slide Show Project. I've tried
different photos in many different folders and all of them show the same
message of "Searching for Missing File". Since I just reloaded PSE-6
I'm very surprised by this error.
If by "reloaded" you mean reinstalled, then the relevant fact is that the reinstall does not modify the Elements Catalog (which is where those pointers to the photo file location on the Z drive reside). So a reinstall of the PSE software would not have an effect here.
Unfortunately, I can not predict or even guess how the Trend Micro SaveSync works and what it would do that would make the PSE Organizer think it should look on the Z drive to find your photo files. The Search for Missing File is most probably caused by that Z drive reference.
All I can suggest is
-- look in the Organizer Preferences for a preference about reconnecting files automatically and set that preference to NOT reconnect automatically so that you have better control of when and how the info about photo file locatin that is stored in the elements catalog is modified .
-- then use the thumbnail view within the Organizer and right click on the thumbnail for one photo and then choose the Reconnect of a single photo
-- can you reconnect that single photo successfully and have it show the C drive as its location ?
-- if yes try a few more photos
-- if you can reconnect several photos, then I suggest that you read the following for a suggestion on how to reconnect many photo files
