![]() ![]() One of the most important, and beneficial, ways to troubleshoot your iDVD problems is to trash certain iDVD files that are referenced by the software. Then you need to check on what the new update is and go through the standard updating process, which may need you to have access to your iLife software package. If you are running an older version of iDVD The next step for troubleshooting the unexpected quitting of iDVD is to simply update the version. You can also try to create a new user account and log in with the new account before trying to open up iDVD. This should be a constant process around using iDVD, so make sure that iDVD does not have to compete on your computer. Try to limit the amount of resources other programs are taking, and try to defragment your hard drive and even use anti-virus software to further clear out your computer. ![]() Try to shut down other programs that are running at the same time, especially multimedia post-production programs like iMovie. The first thing that you should look for is the most simple. Here are a few practical ways that you can try to troubleshoot the problem when iDVD quits unexpectedly after you first open it. One common problem that iDVD users complain about occurring is when iDVD unexpectedly quits when you first open it, which is a common problem with other DVD authoring programs as well.
