4 Tips
n When you create an iDVD slideshow,
you can choose to store copies of those
photos on the DVD-ROM portion of the
disc. If this option is enabled, the files
will appear in the DVD-ROM Contents
window, but they will be grayed-out and
inaccessible. You’ll need to turn off the
option labeled Add image files to DVD-
ROM to remove the files. See Chapter 4
for more information.
n Click and drag the files and folders in
the window to change their order in the
list. You can also move files into different
folders, nest folders, or move everything
to the same hierarchy.
n iDVD creates links to the files you’ve
added to the DVD-ROM Contents win-
dow; it doesn’t copy the files themselves
until it’s time to burn your disc. If you add
a file or folder and then move its loca-
tion on your hard disk, the item’s name
appears in red and you get a “File not
found” message when you burn the DVD.
Either move the file back to its original
location (if you know it), or delete the
reference in the DVD-ROM Contents
window and add the file again.
n Apple recommends that you not use the
DVD-ROM feature in iDVD to create sys-
tem backups of your hard disk, because
saving “more than a few thousand files
may not work.” Instead, use the disc
burning features in the Finder, or better
yet, create a backup system.
