You can't share/play a music CD using Remote Disk. It's a limitation that Apple built in.
"MacBook Air and Mac mini do not support playing DVD movies or audio CD media with Remote Disc."
Remote Disk is limited to data transfers.
You will have to use the MBA external superdrive, or another compatible external DVD device hooked directly to the Macbook Air.
Otherwise, you will need to rip the CD's contents using your PC and transfer the music as data files.

  • I recently had to get a new computer.It required me going from windows xp to 7 I am trying to put it one the new computer but I get following message  Windows installer could not be accessed could be in safe mode.How do I get around it? need it to charge

    I recently had to get a new computer.It required me going from windows xp to 7 I am trying to put it one the new computer but I get following message  Windows installer could not be accessed could be in safe mode.How do I get around it? need it to charge my ipod on my computer.

    I have used PCs for years, and still do at work.  But, last year my wife bought me a 15" MBP with the anti-glare screen (I was getting ready to buy for myself).  It took me all of 1 week to completely get used to the UI for OS-X, and now I really prefer it over the Win7 UI.  I have no experience with Win8.  Here are my thoughts:
    1) You can get a good computer using either a Win8 machine or a Mac.
    2) You will pay less for an equivalent PC.  But not as much less as some would have you believe.  You need to take into account the all aluminum body of the Mac (vs most PCs being plastic) and the size of the display.  And, don't forget that there is a lot of bundled SW on the Mac that you will actually find useful and would have to purchase for the PC.
    3) You can probably do everything you need on the PC platform with the right SW (you probably already know this since you are using one already).
    That said, I think some things are easier on the Mac.  For example, GarageBand is a standard part of the Mac SW installation.  I got up and running recording directly from my bass into a track with a song imported from iTunes on another track in a snap.  I only had to purchase a Jam adapter ($99) for the bass so I could come in over USB instead of using the audio in port (which did work, by the way).  You can do the same on a PC, but you have to purchase the SW from somewhere.  And, it probably isn't cheap.
    I use VMware Fusion to run those Win programs I already owned because it was much less expensive to buy Fusion than to replace them.
    I would not return to a PC for my own use, given a choice.  But, I would be very careful about getting my wife a Mac without careful thought as she is not as tolerant of learning new things as I am.
    So, there you go.

  • TS3297 Tried to copy a movie from my iTunes account to my iPhone and keep getting this message--.  iTunes could not copy "L.A." to the iPhone "Michael's iPhone" because of a timeout occurred.

    Tried to copy a movie from my iTunes account to my iPhone and keep getting this message…….  iTunes could not copy "L.A." to the iPhone "Michael's iPhone" because of a timeout occurred.

    I completely understand what is happening. I know that you are connected to the Internet. I made the suggestion because I have seen it work in similar circumstances. The Apple iTunes servers can be a bit fussy about things and sometimes rebooting the router clears up this miscommunication between iTunes and your network.
    Have you tried signing into your account and then try to sync again. Go to Store>View Account. You will have to enter your password. Then try to sync again. Or try signing out completely in Store>Sign out. Quit iTunes, sign in again and then try to sync again.
    Sometimes refreshing settings will help clear up weird problems.

  • TS1398 I cannot activate my iMessage on my ipad. I get a message that says "Could not sign in. Please check your network connections and try again." But my internet and browsing works great.  I don't undersand. Any ideas of what to try?

    I am trying to activate iMessage. I receive a message that says "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." I connection is strong. I can browse the internet but cannot connect to iMessages. I don't understand. Any ideas.

    Turn iMessage off and then on again, wait a few minutes.
    Turn Airplane mode on and then off again, turn iMessage off and then on again, wait a few minutes.
    Make sure your iPad is on Wi-Fi, reboot your iPad, turn iMessage off and then on again, wait a few minutes.
    Wait and try again later -- Apple's servers can get overwhelmed or experience outages just like anyone else's.

  • Hello. help! My bonjour is missing for my itunes. I tried reinstalling and I get this message: "Support personnel could not write value manageLLRouting to key \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\ServicesBonjourService\parameters

    Hello, my Bonjour was missing from my computer for Itunes; I cannot find it in my programs so it seems it has been accidentally deleted. I tried re-installing and got this message: "Support personnel could not write value ManageLLRouting to key \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BonjourService\Parameters".  Someone please help as I am trying to get my itunes reinstalled and recognized by my phone. I use a Windows 7 software.
    Any assistance is truly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    That particular message might be triggered by Trend Antivirus. If so disabling the real time scanner while updating iTunes and other components should work.

  • TS1389 I have done all the above but I still can't get Quicktime to play a HD movie I purchased on itunes.  I get error message "This computer could not be authorized to play [movie title]"

    I have looked extensively online but can't find an answer yet.
    I also tried playing the HD movie in VCL Media Player.  I select the movie in finder, right-click to Open With VCL. Window opens with Library menu on left and first item in the menu is Playlist.  HD movie is listed in the playlist.  I select Play and counter at bottom of window starts counting as if movie is playing but nothing else happens.
    Help greatly appreciated.

    Tried some more movies in my library and it seems that all movies purchased in the iTunes Stores UK with my iTunes UK account wont play in Quicktime (or VCL media player).  These movies will play in itunes.
    This is cleary a DRM issue but don't I have the same legal rights to play my movies regardless of which iTunes store I  purchased from?

  • I have downloaded an update to Firefox, but when I try to load it I get this message, "The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items" and I have no idea what it is talking about or how to change it.

    The previous version of Firefox is still on and operational. I get this message when I try to drag the Firefox icon to the application file icon. Since this is my computer, and I am the administrator, I don't know what privileges I lack, or on which items. If there is a way to correct this I would like to do so and activate the new version. It looks like the new version is 7.0.1 for Mac OS. This happens everytime I try to load the new version by dragging the icon.

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
    * Firefox 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

  • I download itunes64 but when it is validating the installation, I get the message that "itunes64msi could not be found" and nothing I have done, nor looked in has resolved this problem. Could you help me please????

    http://C:\Users\Ashley\AppData\Local\Apple\Apple Software Update\
    'C:\Users\Ashley\AppData\Local\Apple\Apple Software Update\i Tunes64.msi' cannot be found. Verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package "iTunes64.msi" in a folder from which you can install the product iTunes.   I cannot find my old copy of iTunes on my computer now. The only thing in the iTunes folder is the written rules.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Error trying to delete CRM trans. Administration header could not be found

    We were trying to delete a few transactions (Leads & Opportunities ) from our system using T code: CRMD_ORDER. but got this error message: "Administration header could not be found XXXXXXXXXXX". I tried using the program CRM_ORDER_DELTE, but got the same error message. I tried BAPI: BAPI_LEAD_DELETEMULTI but got the same error message.
    I applied the Note: 1087462 and then tried to delete these transactions and still got the same error message. Is there any solution to this problem for CRM 5.0?
    Steps for Reconstruction    
    1. Go to T code: CRMD_ORDER
    2. Enter Shift+F5 and enter transaction#: XXXXXXX.
    3. In Menu- select "Business Transaction" & "Display/change".
    4. Once in change mode go back to Menu and select "Business
    Transaction" & "Delete".
    5. Click "Yes" on the pop-up.
    6. The error msg: "Enter Business partner" should appear - Msg#
    CRM_EMAIL320
    7. Hit enter, the error msg: "Administration header could not be found
    XXXXXXXXXX" appears.

    Received response from SAP support partner:
    Please verify first if the issue is caused by badi implementation
    of ORDER_SAVE badi. Please check method prepare and check_before_save.
    Maybe inside your implementation the function crm_order_read is called
    but that is not possible in case of deleting a document as document is
    not available anymore.
    If that doesn't work try this one:
    Please check to see if you have a badi ORDER_SAVE method
    CHANGE_BEFORE_UPDATE. Please deactiviate the ORDER_SAVE Badi and retestthe deletion.
    This is how we resovled our issue - hope this helps someone else:
    Check using T Code: SE80 to look for a BADI implementation which used BADI: ORDER_SAVE:
    SE80-> Package: Z* (look for custom packages) -> Look under enhancements for any BADI Implementations which have used ORDER_SAVE (double click implementation and in the right pane look under Definition name).
    Click 'Change' and deactivate this implementaiton. Now try to delete the CRM transaction. The error msg should not pop up now. Once deletion is completed reactivate this implementation.
    This is just a work around. The problem lies in the code and the code within the implementation should be debugged and fixed so that this error message does not come up again.

  • I'm trying to use import com.adobe.crypto.* on Windows version of my App but get error 1172:Definition com.adobe.crypto could not be found

    The Mac version of my Air app works fine, so does the iPad version, but the PC version has been a bit of a nightmare.
    I keep getting the error "1172:Definition com.adobe.crypto could not be found", when I publish it.
    Basically the 'com' folder is in the same directory as the app I am publishing and within that is 'adobe' and within that is 'crypto' within that is a series of .as files.
    I've added C:\Users\Gary\Documents\My_Applications\My_App_folder\com\adobe\crypto to source path list (I have no idea if that's right).
    But that just gives me a different error 5001: The name of package com.adobe.crypto does not reflect the location of this file. Please change the package definitions name inside the file.......
    I didn't have to include this source in the Mac version... but someone seemed to suggest it on a forum.
    I'm basically stabbing in the dark at the mount, something I seem to be doing a lot of these days. :-(
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Many Thanks
    Gary

    I've figured it out
    Turns out I needed to add a source path (in the Actionscript 3 settings click on the Source File Tab) that exactly matches the directory the app and com folder is inside of. I wrongly assumed that Adobe Air could figure out where it was for itself, but no.... it needs to be told where to look for the com folder even though it's staring it right in its face. (Don't set the path to the 'com' folder itself, but to the enclosing folder that the .fla and the com is in).
    The Mac version doesn't seem to need that, it just finds the com folder if it's inside the same folder.
    Now I've got another massive error:-
    When I test the app, it works fine sending to Air for Desktop, however when I publish with embedded runtime for Windows.... It comes up with this error.
    Any ideas ?
