DRG Posted February 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 I'm a dope. W8 takes a lot of getting used to. It turns out that i never completed the actual download and never knew it. Thanks for all the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRG Posted February 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Thanks for trying top help me. I have made mistakes and it turns out that everything so far was my fault. I thought I knew what I was doing apparently I did not. Somehow this new laptop got screwed up because I messed up somewhere setting things up. I have now completely refreshed this laptop and I am starting from scratch. Creator NXT2 has been removed and now I need to reinstall it. Please tell me how to do it. Thanks.

sknis Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Follow these guidelines (link) for installing any program. The guideline has been around awhile so you will have to make the necessary adjustments. I hope you kept a copy of the download so you can re install the program or paid for an extended download. Also remember that you have only about 10 tries for installation before you need to have the count reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRG Posted February 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 I cannot find a copy of the download and i didn't pay for an extended download. Is there another way i can recover my download and reinstall? I had to wipe this thing clean and start over because something was messed up. My Roxio download was supposed to have been saved but apparently it was not, as i cannot find it. I tried to recover the account by submitting my email address and the last 5 digits of the card i used but it did not work, unless i did something wrong again.

cdanteek Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 I cannot find a copy of the download Type Creator_NXT_2 in the search box, it should point you to your downloads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRG Posted February 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Thought i had everything downloaded properly. Can't figure out how to get creator to burn. With creator 2011, all i did was "open existing project" right click on dowmloads , click burn then it would start. Can't do it here. I must be doing something wrong. Wanted to burn something to test this new software. Please help. I do have utorrent downloaded also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea what you are doing here:" all i did was "open existing project" right click on dowmloads , click burn then it would start". What does uTorrent have to do with anything? Pleease describe exactly what it is you are trying to do and what you are doing? "Download" means downloading data from a website and has nothing to do with running C2011.

DRG Posted February 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 I have had it with this NXT2 stuff. I am gonna make a call tomorrow and request a refund asap. I will just stick with the other version i have on another computer. My NXT2 was accidentally removed from my computer and i have tried with no success trying to recover it. I refuse to pay for it again and i see no option to buy a CD copy or an extended download. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRG Posted February 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Once i click on "open existing project, i can't figure out how to start the burn process. With creator 2011, all i did was right click on "download when it popped up on the left of the screen, then i right clicked then a drop down would show then i clicked on "burn". That may not have been the proper way, but it always worked for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRG Posted February 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Got the creator NXT2 purchased and downloaded. However, i use utorrent and now i can't figure out how to burn from utorrent. With creator 2011 it was easy. I click on "Open existing project", then i get lost from there. I was trying the came thing i was doing with creator2011. What am i doing wrong?

DRG Posted February 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 You cannot 'share' any copyrighted material, plain and simple! Lending someone a DVD Movie or Audio CD to view/listen seems to be OK. But it they copy them in any way they have crossed the line... Of course it does get a little more confusing if you have a Digital Copy that comes with some Movies and there are many, many sources where you can 'rent' a download to watch But in the end the acid test is - Do I really think the owner of the Copyright intends for me to make and distribute copies of this??? I have Never been able to answer that question with a yes All i wanna burn is video from my Son's Navy activities/Training, with permission from his command, plus a lot of stuff that was home made, not downloaded from the net. I just tried a TV show to try and figure what i was doing wrong. It's too easy to get caught doing something illegal and i refuse to take the chance. I am just gonna request a refund tomorrow and try again in April when i take my next vacation week. Thanks to everybody that tried to help, even though i seemed clueless due to misinformation i got from other people who i trusted. I'm new to this stuff and it's gonna take a little while for me to learn the right thing. Especially "digital guru" he tried his best, but i guess i got frustrated. Thanks again.

Do you mean the downloaded program was removed from your computer or do you mean the installed program was removed? Here is a link on how to re-download Perhaps you can use it.

DRG Posted February 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 I just burned a CD and everything worked fine as advertised.

I am sorry but I just don't understand what you are trying to do or what you are doing. What does uTorrent have to do with NXT 2 ???? Are you trying to create a data DVD a video DVD, a CD or what? What is the source you are trying to burn? Why are you trying to burn from uTorrent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRG Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I am trying to burn a video DVD. I was told that utorrent was essential for Roxio to work properly. I was told that once i download something that utorrent would pick it up as it did with 2011 then i could start the burn. Apparently, this is not the case with Creator NXT2. If you think i should get rid of utorrent i will. I just don't know how to burn a video, (TV show) using NXT2. I feel like a real dope because 2011 never gave me any grief.

I have no idea what you did using C2011. Assuming that you used uTorrent to download a TV show (legally of course) then you would use NXT 2 to burn that video to a DVD. This would be the exact same procedure that would have been used in C2011. Of course the downloaded video would have to be in a format compatible with C2011 or NXT 2. Are you trying to simply archive on the DVD the downloaded video or are you trying to create a video DVD that can be played on a stand-alone DVD player? There would be two complete different procedures involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably is not that hard to do... (IF you can get the software back ) I assume your end result is a DVD Movie. Is Blu-Ray of interest at all? WHAT are your sources? Are they DVD Movies or downloads or tapes??? Give us that info and we can give you a rough outline of what you will be doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walt, back in #18, he said he restored his computer to "factory fresh." So, he wiped everything out. It probably formatted the drive too, so no copy left there, and it doesn't sound like an optical backup got made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRG Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I do pay a fee to do the legal thing. If it's not the legal way, i want nothing to do with it. I will get rid of utorrent and start over. A friend at my work, his older Son got snagged and is facing a fine of at least 18k after he was warned several times to stop what he was doing. I don't understand file sharing, i don't know how to do it anyway. Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing illegal about using uTorrent, it is what you are downleading where the "legal" problem is relevant. What do you mean by "I do pay a fee to do the legal thing"?

You kept posting something about burning from uTorren, even your subject heading talks about burning from uTorrent. We can help you on burning using NXT 2. First of all tell us what kind of DVD you want. Do you want to simply burn some video files to a DVD as data whichcan then be played only on a computer or do you want to create a video DVD that you can play on a stand-alone DVD player? Those are two completely different processes and use different programs from the NXT 2 suite. The process to burn to DVD (for either case) is basically exactly the same as with C2011.
