iDVD and iLife '11

Buy an iLife 08 or newer DVD from a source such as Amazon or eBay. You'll also need a DVD drive to install it.

Hi

the downloadably iLife version from Apple - do not contain iDVD !

You need a boxed version with a physical DVD disk

and see that it contains iDVD

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 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.

Hi Old Toad. P lease can you tell me how did you copy a screen image into this forum. Sorry it's not related to the thread, just getting my mac life back together having moved up to a new imac. Did you use grab?

Click on the camera icon in the toolbar and folldow the instructions in the pop up window:

or drag the image file onto the Choose File button and click on the Insert Image button.

Hi (just me Bengt W - not OT) but

I can tell how I use to do that.

There are two kind of screen grabs on Your Mac as is

• full screen dump - press [Shift+cmd+3]

• just selected area of screen - press [Shift+cmd+4] - and drag cross hair over area needed

Then on DeskTop or on Macintosh HD (root level = first window) You find the file as Screendump 1.png or alike it (on older Macs - Picture 1.png etc)

then as You see in this Question or Reply window - there is a Camera symbol

and by clicking on this one can select the ScreenDump 1.png file

and insert it in the question/reply document.

Yours Bengt W

Thank you Old Toad & Bengt for answering my question.
