Laura, I forgot in "File Save Settings" - Location: Other: Choose & locate your folder on the desktop (so all the scans will go into it so you can then import the folder of scanned photos into iPhoto and batch change them all at once). Ronni On 29/05/2009, at 3:04 PM, Ronda Brown wrote:

Yvonne, When you burn a DVD using Toast, do you select a "Menu Style"? Do you have a Menu on all your burnt DVDs? If you don't have a Menu for the DVD it would default to both Autoplay and continuous play I would suspect. Cheers, Ronni On 29/05/2009, at 6:35 PM, wyv...@iinet.net.au wrote:

Hi Yvonne Are they lopping on both the computer they are being played in and/or an external DVD player to a TV? Or just on the computer? It could also be a setting on the actual device itself just as another line of thought. Otherwise, it's probably what Guru Ronni suggests. :o) Was just thinking

Hi Yvonne, I'm fairly sure your DVDs are looping because you don't have a Menu on the DVDs. It's the way the DVD is burnt, not the equipment that is playing them. No Menu on a DVD, the DVD will play through and then play through again etc. Try one with a Menu and see what happens. An alte
