chicoz66,
You have too much information missing.
1. When you download any program, there is a box that comes up to tell you where the file is being sent and giving you the chance to change it. It also contains the program's name. You must look at that box and write down where the file is being sent. Usually it is sent to Program Files.
When you speak of movies you cannot find on your HD, the same is true. You can't just click something without reading it. Also, what type of format are the movie files in ? We have to know that before we can tell you how to get them and burn them. When downloading either AnyDVD OR CloneDVD2 you must know where they go so that you can extract the files and click on the install file OR you must click on the .exe file, which should install the program for you.
Try to download the programs again. look where they are going, all the other programs will be there too. Delete the extra programs and install just one.
I hope that helps,
Pete

I got the same problem. eventualy it became "no boot drive detected" and i lost all my files on that harddrive. AnyDVD is terrible software and i dont recoment it to anyone. it is smarter to wait a month or so untill newer versions of DVD Shrink come out that are able to copy these new dvds.

Right bilbo65, Shrink won't be getting any updates that we know of.
@diabolus3. AnyDVD is one of the best decrypters out there. Since it runs in the background I can't see what problem you are having with it. At times there are a few programs that conflict with it but not very many. You will also find out if you do some reading that many members are running AnyDVD behind Shrink so it can still be used to decrypt and process the new movies and encryptions. Just thought your statement was way off base.

I agree with you Jerry. I've even used the Beta versions on about eight movies with absolutely no problems. Never have. Of course I don't have a number of similar programs running at the same time competing for the same resources and I don't use Nero which does appear to have conflicts in a few cases.

I couldn't get the Beta 5.0 to work at first. I corrected the problems last night. It was a Nero conflict of sorts. Now I have CloneDVD 2.8 and AnyDVD 5.0 both working right. Also reinstalled Nero and its working too without the conflict.

ok there, i am a NEWBIE at this forum but dont act like some sort of bigshot. highlighting it out. AnyDVD does not take a rocket scientist to figure out. and yes my problem seems like i did it my self and am blaming on some innocent piece of software. but im not the only one who has had this problem. I did not format the drive because it was replaced due to dell warrenty. but i did try to run it as a slave and may computer wasnt able to pick it up, these are sata drives so it really doesnt take a rocket scientist for this ether. I would imagin that what ever AnyDVD does to you dvd player in order to make it opperate differently it did to my hard drive. I dont have the thread saved in which someone had the same problem but i know it exists. thanks. what i wanted to know is if AnyDVD has any competitor companys that do the same thing. DVD43 i tryed and it sucks. thanks there MEMBER

No need for you to recommend it -
Point of fact; AnyDVD is one of the best proggys available today for our type of work. Everyone with the slightest bit of experience will tell you that -
When you achieve an attitude change, Stop back - there's a veritable mountain of material you have yet to learn

Ok i have an update on my problem with AnyDVD. Please read my previous posts to get the story. Anyway to make it short AnyDVD messed up my harddrive when i installed it. Since then i was looking for simular programs that will do the same thing and found a program called DVD reagion+ccs free. It seems to work just as well. I have not compared the price... but there is a free trial. So if your looking for a working substitute for AnyDVD try this one. by the way DVD43 did not work too well.
here is a link DVDIdle.com/support.htm" class="korostus" target="_blank">http://www.DVDIdle.com/support.htm

by the way ScubaPete (afterdawn addict). When i type fast i don't pay much attention to spelling. I am not gonna waste my time trying to insult you. The fact of the matter is, i used AnyDVD for a few cd's and it worked fine. One day it asked me to update, so i did. After installation was complete it told me that it could not detect my burner. Following their instructions i uninstalled it and then reinstalled. After the installation was complete i restarted my computer and got an error while booting from my hard drive. So i tryed to restart again, hoping that this was a glitch. On the second restart i received a different error message that said that there was no boot drive available. So i checked the BIOS and everything was fine. I ran some diagnostics that were provided with my computer and i got some an error code for the drive. Sooo i called dell and told them about the error, their response was that the drive is damaged and they can only replace the drive. What else was i supposed to do? I'm on a timeline and i need to get some work done. SO i agreed. Before returning this drive to them i did try to use it as a slave while booting from my new drive, and was not successful. Since this problem happened right after i installed AnyDVD naturally i blamed it.
If you choose to reply to my post, prove to me your intelligent by suggesting something smart rather then spending your time checking my spelling or grammer for errors. by the way 256 video memory is good for not only gamers but designers.

diabolus3:
Video card memory makes little to no difference in anything other then 3d appz and games. So by designer, do you mean that you work in the 3D area?
Or am i missing something?

I suppose it has some importance to him in the world of DVD backups BUT it alludes me at the moment - He felt it was necessaey to inform us that he had a video card, ~ Kweel ~
diabolus3,
Believe it or not, We're all glad you found your problem.
PLEASE, continue in your vain of, you're a "Rocket Scientist" and AnyDVD does things to your HD and to your DVD drive and you wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Your wealth of knowledge will teach us not to say anything to you . . . We would never try to be a "Big Shot" in your presence, not with your keen eye . . .
Perhaps you'll mellow with time . . for your sake . . .
Cheers and happy burning . . .

I am a Visual Arts student. I also do alot of work with photoshop, dream weaver and aftereffects. I guess it wasnt necessisary to mention my graphics card. The reason i stated my computer specs was no to get replyes that my computer is not suitable for Dvd burning. I never said I am an expert at this. I simply said that programs like DVD Shrink and Decripter are easy to learn and understand. There really isnt alot you can do wrong with them. Anyway scuba why do you insist on being an asshole? Did you design AnyDVD? I seem to be hitting a nerve with it. Calm down dude. I explained what happened and what i based "I dont recomend it to anyone" on. My last post was not to argue or prove im right but to state what happened and why i said what i did. I didnt start posting here to insult anyone or to say im better then you at this.
be nice

Ahh ok, thats kinda what i thought. Well FYI the graphics card wont make any difference in any of those Appz. As everything to do with those appz is solely dependant on your CPU and HDD speed.
Anyway, it is damn strange what happened to you, but its great to hear that everything is up and running and that you have found a good alternative.

@diabolus3, I'm glad you got your problem sorted out. I think you should have checked things out before you jumped any of us for HIGHLIGHTING terms in my reply to you. The forum is set up to do that automatically with any proper names of software. If you look at your replies you will see Anydvd is also HIGHLIGHTED there. You had 3 or 4 senior members trying to help you and you turned this thread into a hostile one by jumping off the deep end without checking the water. I don't need to defend ScubaPete because he is able to do that himself. He has helped more people on here than you can imagine. He has written several guides that many members use and link to. You posted on here asking for help then disreguard and bad mouth anything said by the senior members. We are not perfect but we don't make statements that haven't been tried and tested by many. Later.
Jerry

I was quite grateful to learn that AnyDVD does something to your hardware to make it operate differently. The rest of aD will be interested in that also.
Thanks for the education :)
Hey Jerry,
Good to see Ya, was wondering where you were -
What do ya think Buddy, is there a software that could make my DVD tray warm up so I could make a grilled cheese here at the table ?
