 Two Leopard Questions Greetings, I have a couple of questions someone here may be able to answer. I cannot seem to run iDVD in Leopard. It says it is not supported on this platform. Anyone encounter the same issue? Also, I have all my music on an external MyBook hard drive. If I buy a second MyBook, can I set Time Machine to back up the first MyBook to the second one? Also, if I want to only keep ONE copy of each backup, can I set Time Machine to overwrite all previous backup copies? I don't need 20 backups of my MP3s :-) The Wikipedia Time Machine article suggests that only the bootable hard drive may be backed up, but I'm hoping someone here can dispute that! Thanks, Alra111

I am assuming mine is iDVD '07, which came with my iMac. Thanks, Alra111

| When did you get your iMac? There is no iMovie '07, it went from '06 and '08. And 06' works on Leopard, I have have not tried iMovie 05', so you might have that. Go to applications and right click (control+click) on iMovie and select "Get Info" it will open a window and it will have the version listed. Unfortunately Time Machine only works with the startup volume. EDIT: Have you tried Software Update?

| That is a shame about Time Machine...I guess that's my first big disappointment with Leopard. The application that doesn't work is not iMovie but rather iDVD. This is used to view DVDs, correct? My iDVD says it was "Created on Saturday, July 29, 2006." Even in the Preview the icon has a circle with a slash through it. It is "36 KB on disk." It came with my 2006 model iMac. I guess it is the '06. I'm assuming the only way to get the '08 is to buy iLife '08. Alra111 Quote:

| Are you trying to use iDVD on that iMac or the Mac mini?
