Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
This will refresh the default driver stack.

Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

Sometimes new software can cause problems so if you added a new software related CDDVD please uninstall
It and restart.

Also check with Dell DVD have sometimes drivers and it is possible that dould effect the CD even if it is
unlikely.

Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
contacts data with a pencil eraser.  -SpiritX - MS MVP

  • Burn a DVD with "disk utility".

    Before El Capitan (10.11.2), I was able to burn a DVD using "disk utility".  Here are the instructions that I used.  Disk utility has now a new version Version 15.0 (1511.3) and the statement no longer work.  Can anyone update these instructions?

    Copy DVD

    Follow these instructions to make a copy of your DVD unprotected:

    Insert your DVD into your Mac. Most Macs will automatically launch the DVD player. Once he starts, he gave up. You should see your DVD drive mounted on your desktop.

    Open disk utility (Applications > utilities). Select the DVD drive in the list on the left. You will notice that there are two DVD icons - select the one slightly indented (this is the DVD itself, while the first is the drive).

    Click on "New Image" in the main window of disk utility.

    Choose a name and a destination in the window "Save as...". ». Don't forget that your destination should have enough space to copy the whole DVD, which can be more than four concerts.

    In the window "Save as...". ', to ensure that the selection 'Format of Image' is set to ' CD/DVD Master' and the selection of "Encryption" is set to 'none '. Click Save.

    After you have copied the DVD in your destination drive, return to disk utility. Your new disk Image will appear in the list on the left side of the disk utility window. The original disc of DVD on your Mac.

    Insert a DVD disc that is accessible by writing in your Mac. Select your disk Image created in the list on the left side of the disk utility window. Click on "Burn" in the main window of disk utility. Choose your burn speed and if you want to check the data burned.

    You will receive confirmation once you the DVD are engraved with success and you are all set with a new copy of your DVD drive. Just save your new disk Image and you can make a copy whenever you may need.

    That is right. Apple has removed this feature FROM.

    Depends on what you used for the backup.

    If you used the windows backup or another backup software will contain the entire disk will be a backup file, and view/use this file, you use the same software that allows you to save.

  • How to import the DVD pictures in LR 6

    I have more than 100,000 photos saved on DVD. Can they be imported into LR 6?

    Yes you can. (Let stay on the DVD disc)

    If you do NOT want the copied on your hard drive, you must use the option 'Add' in the import dialog box.

    However the DVD disc must be in the DVD player, if you still want to use all of the images on the DVD for export, printing, slideshow, book, etc.

    Without the disk they will show as 'missing '. (just like an external drive - unplugged)

    It may be a method to 'Add' images (thumbnails) on the Lightroom catalogue simply as a reference database.

  • 1 DVD 5 disk corruption

    After many attempts with the laptop HP Recovery Manager (which only allows a sequence/run), I managed to complete a series of 5 DVDs of recovery disks. However, # 1 (of 5, being a DVD-R) DVD is partially illegible and thus corrupted.

    Other (4-5 on 5) were burned on DVD + 5, which proved much more reliable first time.

    How do I re - energize a repetition of Recovery Manager? HP should give me permission to do... for some reason any?

    OS = Windows 8.1, incidentally.

    Hey EddyAB,

    No worries over information I sooner I can isolate what is happening and why. Unfortunately, Microsoft allows only 1 set of discs to do. You don't have the chance to create a repair disk. You have the option to purchase these HP discs. You also have the possibility to download from the sites of third parties for this search on Google.

    You could look at this link to create a USB stick recovery.

    Hope this information is useful.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    My Toshiba Satellite M70-339 recognizes the DVD movie but not blank blank DVD or CD discs.
    It happened some time ago and I'm ever round to sorting. INE day that only, it has stopped working.

    I have since reformatted all the computer several times, but it has never begun work again.
    I can watch a movie, a DVD OK, but when I try to burn anything to a DVD or CD, it don't think that there is a disc in the machine to engrave on Virgin.

    I tried the software built into Windows XP, burning CD and it does not work, nor does any third-party CD or DVD burning software.

    Just to reiterate, I want to be able to burn the files to CD/DVD again.
    Can someone advise?

    Here's a way to copy the DVD. You start by creating
    an Image of the DVD then you burn the image on
    your drafts of DVD.

    If this is 'not' a commercial - protected against copying DVD...
    the following freeware can create an ISO Image
    that allows to burn copies.

  • Cannot back up the DVD - RW disk

    Hello!

    Can you help me?-Windows Vista does not allow me to back up my files on a DVD - RW disc
    It is an intact and not a damaged disc.

    Here's what happens: Windows displays files are analyzed and prepared for backup; then
    about an hour later, a dialog box appears saying: insert a blank disc and write the
    What follows (a name chosen by Windows file) on the disk.

    I insert my drive (formatted) empty and press OK, but the dialog box does not accept that only
    shuddered when I press tab OK does not disappear, then causes the backup files bar
    to switch from green to red and finally tells me that my backup has failed... This has happened
    the last 10 times I tried to backup on a DVD - RW disc!

    In addition, other times, when I inserted a floppy blank and formatted, the dialog box told me
    that the drive is a former backup drive, even though I have never managed to do any type of backup on it!

    I can do this behavior disturbed?
    Thank you for your attention.

    Hello, Savan, Vinod n., al. to Microsoft Support-

    Thank you very much for linking me to many DVD backup problems
    questions and your answers.

    In fact, I confess that I discovered that it seems to be my fault in
    Figure 2 or 3 dialog boxes Windows on the DVD inserts:
    whenever a box pops up and forced me to put in a "blank" disc, I assumed that this meant that the disc I had already inserted was not recognized
    as white - of course it was not; Windows has already finished writing the original disk and asked me to put in a new blank disc.

    Finally I happened to do exactly as requested, and it worked!
    Problem is that I was on my 6th DVD - RW blank, which means that Windows
    necessary for formatting each time before to save files to it.
    It took so
    much time and so many DVD - RW that I dropped finally on the process.

    ... I used to backup to an external hard drive (LaCie), but it was stopped
    operation and I had no confidence to hang up another external drive beause they are quite expensive.

    Maybe I should get an online software to perform backups.
    Don't you think it's a decent idea?

    Once again thank you very much for your thoughtful link and honest advice,.
    and again I am really sorry that I misunderstood the meaning of the dialog box.
    Although part of the reason why it has confused me was that he kept showing
    I should write 1 discs on the label of each new disc that I inserted.
     
    As a thank you.

    Hello

    If I import the mp4 in first they are imported okay, if I import the avi file I get the following error

  • Import of DVD

    Hello

    I am trying to import some movies off DVD 10 PE home and I get an error message saying "the users have sufficient privileges to write to the destination folder or the folder is read-only.  As I am administrator on my PC and I am able to write other files in this folder I do not understand what to do next.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Two good reasons to copy the VIDEO_TS folder with VOB files, is that playing a DVD in the Multi-lecteur much, much slower and also, because imported files are done via absolute links, DVD to be inserted, or VOB files will be shown as Offline Media.

    In addition, while PrE will import 100% compatible DVD VOB, if this DVD was written by another software, or was performed on a DVR unit, then the first VOB can be incompatible DVD and it must then be ripped, use other software first.
