Any Dvd says, any DVD is disabled for drive F. So I can't copy the movie because it says it is copy protected. Why is it disabled for one of my drives? And what do I do to change it?

Hi njoyt
If you just installed AnyDVD - reboot.
If not uninstall than reinstall - activate w/ your key. Then reboot.
See if that does the trick.

If not what's the make and model of the drive.

I rebooted and still says drive f is disabled. I just got a new computer and so the only information I can find it this: HL-DT-ST DVDRW DL for what kind of drive it is.

Make sure AnyDVD is enabled. Right click on the red fox and make sure a check is next to 'enable'.
Did you unisntall & reinstall AnyDVD?
May want to re download a new install - latest version 6.0.5.0.
Install - reboot - check to make sure 'enable' is checked.

Ok, it appears to be gone now. But, Any DVD is not taking the copy protection off the movie. Clone DVD will not copy it, says it is copy protected even though Any DVD is on.

Okay make sure you have AnyDVD on. You'll see a red fox in the bottom right hand corner like this:



If you see a grey fox - right click on it and check 'enable anydvd'

I also have made set to show media info - I like seeing what protection is on the disc. Right click on the fox click on settings>program settings. Check 'show information window for new media'
This also let's you know AnyDVD is ready and Clone should be good to go.

Don't special on this one at all - did it myself using AnyDVD & CloneDVD. Just the regular CSS protection.

Now that this is displayed - does CloneDVD still give you a copy protection error? Shows that AnyDVD is enabled for drive G.

Yes, Clone DVD still says it can't copy because this movie is copy protected.

I believe the problem lies in that the drive has not been set to your specific region. Second line: Drive (Hardware) Region: 0 (not set!)


ie: Region 1 if in Canada/USA or will say region FREE if using unofficial firmware.


Go to my computer, right click local disc c, properties, hardware, find your dvd-rom or DVD-RW drive, highlight it, properties, dvd region, then check your country.

Ireland, I was under the impression that it did also. However, the summary njoyt posted says otherwise.

I recently update my rom drive's firmware with Dangerous Bros. unlock rip and region free. The first time I used AnyDVD after the update I got an error saying to set my drive to my region???

I don't have one of my drives set to a region either - using AnyDVD it will still work. Now if using Decrypter or Shrink you will need to set it or use the hacked firmware like mackdl suggested.

You had drive F was disabled but AnyDVD is showing drive G as the drive.

edit spelling :)

Ok, I set my region. And I exited out and restarted from my desktop. Still no luck.

This is what drive F says:

AnyDVD is disabled for Drive F:!

What is your F drive? How about your G drive?
Internal or external drives?

@mackdl
I received the same thing from AnyDVD after an update on the drive that didn't have the region set - rebooted and bam gone.

njoyt,

Perhaps some guides will help with your settings within AnyDVD and CloneDVD. MadBob's and BBMayo's

It also appears you are ripping (reading) from your G drive/not F drive, this is what is confusing. Are you using 2 drives? Open up settings in AnyDVD, go to Drives. I have both my D and E drives enabled. If I have trouble reading from one drive, I use the other. It appears you should have both your F and G drives enabled.

I have used both these programs before on my old computer. I just got this new computer and I have installed them.

I do have both drives checked. I want them both enabled.

I really don't understand what is happening. These worked fine on my old computer.

This is what I would do. First uninstall both AnyDVD and CloneDvd2. Next go to your device manager and uninstall both drives. Reboot and let windows reinstall them. Next reinstall AnyDVD, reboot, then reinstall Clonedvd2, reboot. Hopefully, AnyDVD and CloneDvd2 will recognize and enable your drives.

Good Luck.
