I hoped they would have fixed these issues. This didn’t seem the case, however the Apple Store site mentions that iDVD is now version 7.1, instead of the current 7.0.4. I hoped that since iLife ’11 included iDVD they would have updated it. The only thing you can edit is the name of the menu itself. Losing all of your custom placement, frames, and editing. The only way for you to edit the text is to temporarily switch themes, edit the text, and switch back. So after you’ve arranged the chapters, changed the frames, moved the boxes where you want them – you can’t edit the text.

You can select the button, you can right-click on it, but no matter what you do, you can not change the text. One frustrating example is that if you choose an older theme, such as the ‘Watercolor’ theme (which is nice for family DVDs) it is impossible to edit the text in the chapters menu! Or other places as well. The problem is that iDVD version 7.0.4 (the latest version from iLife ’09) is riddled with bugs. They love being able to have their VHS home videos on DVD with chapters and nice menus. Recently I’ve been converting a bunch of home video VHS tapes from my family and my girlfriend’s family. I use iMovie, iDVD and iPhoto very often. Apple recently announced their new version of their iLife suite.
