My problem was that I kept trying to paste that into its location on the new Mac and it would keep erasing the contents and not open them. Also, I knew that there was a library folder that contained the themes so I copied that. I found the iDVD folder in Applications on my previous computer and copied it all to the new one. I had basically given up but tried one last time and got it to work. I believe it said that it could not find any themes and would not open a new project. Please check above s I don't recall everything. On my NEW 15" MBP with Mavericks, it does not.
#IDVD THEMES DOWNLOADS HOW TO#
I tried doing the fix that was previously mentioned by going to Preferences and selecting the folder location under advanced, However, Because IDVD will NOT open a new project, because it can not locate the themes, It will not allow me to access preferences.Īny ideas on how to fix this? I have done this before with Snow Leopard, and my boss did it with his 13" MBP with Mavericks and it worked those times. IDVD is ERASING the contents of the folders. Then, I go back into the folders and check their contents and they are empty. The popup comes back and it will NOT point to the folder. I go through and point to the Home>Library>Application Support>IDVD>Installed Themes folder. I then open IDVD and get the following screen I then checked all the contents of the folders and I can see all the themes listed in folders called IDVD 1, IDVD 2, IDVD 3, IDVD 4, IDVD 5 and IDVD 6. In that folder I placed the folder from the iMac called Installed Themes that I got from the iMac's Applications Support>IDVD folder. I then went to Library and in APPLLICATION SUPPORT and created a folder called IDVD. I went to Library and deleted the IDVD CACHE folder and the IDVD Preferences folder.

I copied the application into the applications folder, I selected View Options in my Home Folder and activated my Library. just bought a MBP with Mavericks and I tried to copy iDVD from my iMac. You might try placing the iDVD folder with the Themes folder inside in the Home/Library/Application Support folder, go to the iDVD Advnace preference pane and point to them there.Īnyone ever find a solution to this.
