Step 2. Create association of Apple iDVD with FAVORITE files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FAVORITE file to open in the Apple iDVD application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Apple iDVD application as the default for handling the FAVORITE file.
Step 3. Update Apple iDVD to the latest version
If, however, after binding Apple iDVD with Apple IDVD Favorite there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Apple, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FAVORITE file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the FAVORITE file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our FAVORITE file. Sometimes virus-infected FAVORITE files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the FAVORITE files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged FAVORITE files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted FAVORITE files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the FAVORITE file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FAVORITE to close. However, some background programs may block the FAVORITE file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
