• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I have MacBook but didn't upgrade it so its got a DVD writer. I've created a menu and put all the photos in on iDVD and the file is on my desktop. I'm just wondering if i can transfer that file to my other mac and burn it from there or aren't the photos actually on the file. Does the DVD need to be burnt on the computer all the pictures are?

Use the "Save as Disc Image..." to create a disk image and transfer that. Then try burning it using Disk Utility in the Applications/Utilities folder.

I've never done the disk image trick before can you do that in iDVD?

The other option you have is to start your mac book up in target disk mode (while your mac book is off plug it into (via FireWire) your other computer. Hold down "T" as you start your mac book. This will allow you to access your mac book like an external. Navagate to the file, launch, and burn.
