If that's the case, you can create a copy in Disk Utility.
If you want to actually rip the DVD into a movie which you can perhaps edit or include in another project, you need to use Handbrake.

The DIsk Utility helped me, not exactly as you said, but close enough that it allowed me to copy onto another disk.
I am still wanting to be able to copy the DVD to the computer MAC harddrive. I did a copy but it only copied the file with no content. I also have the original on a DVD +R and copied it onto a DVD - R

Double-click that file to open it, then run DVD Player (Applications folder). It should start playing. If not, click "Open DVD Media" in its "File" menu and select the VIDEO_TS folder in the disk image file.
