Will iDVD work in Lion?

I would like to migrate a copy of iDVD from time machine to my new iMac 27". Will it work and how do I transfer just iDVD and not all the other applications as well?
Thanks.

Yes, it works in Lion. However, you need to transfer both the application and themes which are located in your HD/Library/Application Support/iDVD folder. If copying the themes to that folder and the app to the Applications folder does not let iDVD find the themes you may have to reinstall iDVD from the disk it came on for your old Mac, if you have it.
Otherwise purchase a copy of the boxed iLife 11 disk from Amazon.com: iLife 11. That wahy you'll have it on disk along with the discontinued iWeb for future installs if necessary.

Will idvd work w/ osx mavericks?

will idvd work w/ osx mavericks?

iDVD 7 works very well with iMovie 6 HD. You can get iDVD 7 from an iLife 09 disk (both include iDVD 7) and then updating it to the 7.1.2 from the Apple - Support - Downloads website.
You can get a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com or eBay.com. When you go to install be sure to do a custom install and install only iDVD and it's resources.
iLife 09 includes all of the themes from previous iDVD versions, 1 thru 7. the iLIfe 11 disk does not. It only include themes from iDVD 5 thru 7.
Here's my full directions for obtaining iDVD 7:
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

Bummer.
Not a bummer. What is wrong with the OS you are now using?
If it Ain't broken don't try to fix it.
Be Happy you don't have to deal with all the changes and inconsistencies that Lion has created between it and older Mac OSs

I have an Advaned Format WD drive,will it work with Lion?Does Lion even support AF?

I have a "new" mid 2009 MacBook, and I'm replacing everything on it so I can use it for school. I want to use Lion, and decided to get a new hard drive to compliment the upgrade.I ordered a WD Scorpio Black drive...but just realized it had Advanced Format in the description. I noticed alot of reviewers said it worked with their MacBook Pro's, but dont know if they succesfully got AF to work or not...sounds like there would be a serious performance hit if they couldnt get it to work.Does Lion have any way to format the drive in AF?Is it even necessary?

While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t have Lion. There's a Lion Support Community where everybody has Lion.You should also post this question there. https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.7_lion

Logic express 9 will not work on Lion

and the update cannot find the app in Applications. also the icon of LE9 has a grey circle with a line through it
Please help!

Hi
You need to be running version 9.1.4 or later with Lion OS
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4807
For the updaters to work, the Logic Express application must be:
a) Named "Logic Express" with no numbers or spaces at the end of the name
b) Inside the Applications folder, but not inside any other subfolder

Will entorage work with lion

Before I upgrade to lion I wanted to make sure entorage will function properly as it has with snow ...

If it's '04 it won't run in Lion, Microsoft don't have native Intel code on this version and you'll need Rosetta to run Entourage which Lion doesn't support/offer. You can also click on the word "Entourage" in bold text to the right of the Apple logo and then click About Entourage. This will tell you the version.

Microsoft Office will not work with Lion!

Have just installed Lion, now I can not use microsoft office (Word,XL,PPS), message says "POWERPC applications no longer supported" Any help appreciated.

Sounds like you are using Office 2004 or earlier and if so, as the error message provide indicates, PowerPC applications are no longer supported with Lion, and Office 2004 was witten for Macs with a PowerPC processor. The reason PowerPC applications worked on Macs with Intel processors prior to Lion was due to what is called Rosetta, which is no longer supported with Lion.
I believe Office 2008 or whatever the next version was after 2004 and Office 2011 is supported since these are witten for Macs with an Intel processor with OS X.

My USB switch box (sharing a high speed scanner between 2 macs) will not work with lion. what can I do?

Lion - 2004 MS Office for Mac will not work

My 2004 version of Microsoft Office for Mac will not work in Lion. I suspect because this is a PowerPC application. My question is this:
Is there any program out there which will map the PowerPC to an Intel format? Other than trying to seel more products, I am surprised that Apple does not supply a mapping program for products made by Microsoft for the Apple devices.

Eric, can you tell me where please? It's not mentioned on the Lion compatibility pages at all. (http://www.apple.com/uk/macosx/what-is/compatibility.html) nor on the 'how to upgrade' page (http://www.apple.com/uk/macosx/how-to-buy/)

The top 6 "will not work in Lion" programs:
Quicken 2007
Office 2004 and Word, Excel, and mail that are part of it
Adobe cs2
FileMaker 6
Eudora 6
AppleWorks
This is due to removal of support for Rosetta, which used to provide support for PowerPC-only programs.

Quicken for Mac replacement - won't work with Lion

Quicken has sent an announcement to users confirming that Quicken for Mac 2005-2007 will not work with Lion, and encourage these users to begin using Quicken Essentials. Obviously this is not an option for many. I'm going to try out iBank 4 as a full replacement for Quicken for Mac, although I understand online bill pay is not supported.
Any other former Quicken for Mac users using iBank 4? Would love to hear your thoughts about it.

Just to add to the thread..
As Quicken will not be supporting the Mac Lion Update, I will require a replacement financial/banking software package for Quicken 2007.
I tried Quicken Essentials but it does not do what I need.
I am looking for the following features:
Check Printing
Memorized Transactions (QuickFill in Quicken)
Custom Reports
Memorized Reports
Scheduled Transactions
I do not need investment/budget/online banking features.
Sure would appreciate some advice!
Many thanks!

Does Adobe Indesign work with Lion?

I have Adobe Indesign CS5 and I was wondering if there were any problems running it with Lion or for that matter, with ANY adobe product.

I don't have it myself, but if it is a Power PC application it will NOT work on Lion.

How to upgrade iDVD 6.0.4 so it will work with Lion?

I still have the original iLife software that came with my Macbook in '07. Running iDVD 6.0.4 and now it won't start up in Lion. What course of action do I have to get a version that will work with Lion? I tried searching the App Store but only found iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band available.

The boxed iLife 11 that is available at local Apple stores or online at the Apple store (not the App Store) should include iDVD and iWeb. The boxed offereing will have iDVD and iWeb listed in small, gray text on the box, the back I believe. You can't get the iLife 11 suite of apps from the new "App Store".
Click on the Store button at the top of this page and locate iLife 11 or click here: iLife '11. You'll see iWeb and iDVD listed at the bottom of what's included.

OS X lion USB Thumb Drive - will this work on new Mac Mini or MBA (2011)?

Hi All,
Not to be confused with the other similar posts, I am interesting in only clarification of what build comes with the USB Thumb Drive now available on Apple Store - will this work with new MBA and Mac Mini?
Thanks,

From what I have read about the usb installer, it is not intended for you to try booting from the stick after wiping your hard drive. You are to click on the installer
You may be correct, but this statement is quite confusing in that context:
Important Note
When you install OS X Lion using the USB thumb drive, you will not be able to reinstall OS X Lion from Lion Recovery. You will need to use the USB thumb drive to reinstall OS X Lion.
So, if the Thumb drive is supposed to take the part of the Recovery partition, it seems that it should be able to boot. However, the license agreement still requires an Apple computer running Snow Leopard, so maybe it isn't bootable.
