CapStone Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I am using Roxio Creator 2009 Ultimate. When using myDVD I can only see 5 menu themes. I thought that there were a whole lot more than that but am unable to get them. Can someone help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nells250 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I looked around and the "content" file originally downloaded seemed corrupt. It wouldn't open. So I uninstalled the whole program, then re-downloaded. This time both files appeared and it let me download the content. So now I have all the themes, too. And as far as hijacking a thread, I figured it would be better than having multiple threads about one subject. I guess you just can't make anyone happy online...

Make sure you make backup copies of the files you downloaded. There is typically a limit to how many times and for how long they are available (usually 30 days or so) that you can re-download.

nells250 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 There are no "menus" to download - that link is left over from an earlier version and has never been removed by the programmers. No kiddin'?? Geesh... I will look and see if I can find a "content" file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nells250 Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 I am a little confused as to how to backup the download. Can I simply move/download the two unzipped files to a CD? I know this sounds like a silly question, but I have never actually done it before. I'm used to a JPEG here, a BMP there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this sounds like a silly question, but I have never actually done it before. I'm used to a JPEG here, a BMP there... Burning a copy of them to a disc is one way to do it. You'll need to use a DVD disc (should fit on one disc) tho since the files are too big to fit on CD discs (Program file s/b 'bout 1.6gb & the Content file 'bout 900mb). You'll also want to make sure you have the Serial # you received by email backed up. You could type thtat info into a text file ( <filename>.txt ) and burn that to the disc along with the install files. You can also use a marker and write it on the disc. You should be able to use either the Creator Classic app or the Data Disc portion of the home app to burn the disc. I would burn two discs myself just in case one gets damaged or lost. You could also copy them to a second hard drive if you have one. The idea is to have at least one (two is better) backup copy of the files in case anything happens to the ones on your main system, such as a hard drive failure or a system crash.

malatekid Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Did you install the Content file after installing the Program file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapStone Posted June 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Did you install the Content file after installing the Program file? Yeah I thought that might be it but I am unsure how to go back and install the content file. I have this file in my downloads folder FP19AZS0SQA_EMC11Content_7Lang but if I click on it it just says that it is not a valid Win32 file Is there a help file on this or is it a quick reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malatekid Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 What OS do you have? Was the software purchased online and downloaded? If so, it might have been a bad download or the file was corrupted. Try downloading it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again for the quick reply! You got a bad download. Download it again, and kill your antivirus software, and any popup blockers that you run, before trying to download.

CapStone Posted June 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I hope another user drops in and provide another suggestion. Let us know the result. So thank you. I did redownload the application. Made note of the file size and it appears that the problem is a typical ID10T error. I was just so darned eager to create, I guess I paused the download so only had a partial content exe which is why it was not recognized as a WIN32 valid file. Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nells250 Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 I am also having this problem. I purchased the download. Does everyone feel I should re-download as well? I click the link that says "get more menus" (or something similar) and I get to the Roxio site, with no place to download menus. HELP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you download 2 files one of which should mention content in the filename? did you install it?
