IDVD burn disc shows ERROR when playing.

Once burned a dvd player shows error.
I go through the steps of burning and at the end it shows Multiplexing and Burning showing done and ejects the dvd.
The iDVD status bar shows time remaining: about one minute and still has a spinning wheel.
I started with a sample video and menu (small file)
and tried changing speeds and quality. Still get error.
Just trying to do the basic DVD burn. Whats up Apple?

If you couldn't produce a disk image file, as I had suggested, then you may have one or more of the following problems:
1. lack of free space on your startup hard drive. How much free space do you have?
2. problems with your iDVD project. Do any yellow caution signs show up in your iDVD project when viewed in the Map view?
3. a problem with your video and/or audio content

  • Unable to burn disc, unknown error (-3)

    Client has a Lenovo netbook with an External DVD/CD Burner. With current iTunes Win7 x64 release as of writing.
    Whenever she burns a disc it preps the image and when it gets to burning, it pops the disc out and Messages me...
    Unable to burn disc, unknown error (-3)
    I've checked around and never seen this error code pop up at all on any suppport forums, any ideas I'm willing to try out.

    So I got this error for a new playlist that I was attempting to burn. I noticed that it would fail when it reached a specific song in the preparing disc process. Nothing special about this song from what I can tell. I purchased it through iTunes along with the entire album. Once I removed that song from the playlist, it burns with no hangups.
    Going to delete that song from the library and reload it from the cloud. Will report back if that helped.

  • Having trouble burning discs, sometimes error 4280 comes up, anyone know?

    Having trouble burning discs, sometimes error 4280 comes up, anyone know?
    sometimes it will say checking media, then it will do nothing!

    Look around for more posts about this. There are TONS. I'm guessing you have upgraded to the newest Itunes. Which apparently makes you CD burning fail! Itunes needs to fix this problem but so far they haven't. I think there are little things that you can do to maybe fix it but I'm not sure so look around for other posts about this same kind of thing, anything along the lines of CD's not burning and error 4280. I wasted 5 CD's trying to get past this error thinking it was my CD's fault.

  • Can't burn discs. Error message: The disc can't be burned because the device failed to calibrate the laser level for this media     can't be burned because the device

    Cannot burn discs. Error message: "The disc can't be burned because the device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media". Then the blank disc is ejected.

    Two main possible causes:
    1. Poor media. Verbatim DVD-R work best, burned at only 2x or 4x.
    2. Dirty lens. Try cleaning the superdrive with a proprietary CD/DVD lens cleaner that uses tiny brushes.

  • I have ipad 2. Safari stopped working. Screen appears with light gray cover. Some websites show errors when debug is on. But how actually can I debug or fix it? Thank you.

    I have ipad 2. Safari stopped working. Screen appears with light gray cover and is frozen. Some websites show errors when debug is on.
    But how actually can I debug or fix it? Thank you.

    Here are a couple suggestions:
    1.  Go into Settings > Safari and Clear Cookies Clear Cache
    2.  Fully close Safari:  from your home screen, double tap your home button and the most recently used Apps will show up.  Hold your finger on the Safari App until all Apps start jiggling.  You'll see a minus sign on the upper left side of Safari.  Touch the minus and Safari will fully close.  Touch your home button again to stop apps from jiggline, then touch your home button again to return to your home page.
    3.  Reboot your iPad:  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart, but no data or settings will be lost.
    After iPad comes back up, try Safari again, and you should be good to go.

  • IDVD burns disc but they will not play back on same computer

    Prior to this latest update of iDVD, I had ZERO problems with burned iDVDs. Now I can create and burn a disc in iDVD 6.0.3 but my computer refuses to recognize it as a playable disc. I put it in the drive and it spins and spins and after around 10 mins a screen pops up and says that it is a blank. But when I play it on a standard DVD player, it works fine. I recently updated Quicktime to the latest version. Something is wrong. Ah, for the days when you could call Apple about anything and they had the highest rated tech support in the world, now it can be really tough to get an answer. Can anyone give me some thoughts? Thanks, Reed

    I have the same problem. iDVD disks that I burn on my G5 will play on G4's, my PC, and all consumer DVD players that I have tried them in. But they will not play on my G5 that created them, and they never have. The disk just spins for a few seconds and then ejects. It never gets recognized and never mounts. There is no error message. I regularly distribute my DVD's to 20+ people, and the disks play on all of their players, though I don't know if anyone tried to play one of my DVD's in a G5.
    I use DVD-R disks, and have tried burning at slower speeds (4x)from a disk image using Disk Utility, but the disk still won't play on my G5. On the other hand, my G5 will play iDVD disks that I have burned on a G4, and it will play commercial DVD disks.
    I have seen posts from other users who have complained about this problem. I have never seen a fix or a suggested solution that worked. It would be great if you have seen something on this, or have some suggestions, that might lead to a resolution. Otherwise, I can live with it.

  • An't burn my playlist to disc, shows error 2131 I do?

    I have problem with burning my playlist from iTunes to disc, it always shows error 2131, what is this error/

    Usually that one is caused by outdated firmware on the DVD/CD drive (in particular, the TSST TS-L632H), but we'd better doublecheck first.
    Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
    In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
    ... and click "Next".
    When you get through to the final screen:
    ... click the "Copy to Clipboard" button and paste the diagnostics into a reply here.

  • No audio on idvd burned disc- sound plays on TV fine but not on macbook DVD player

    First time posting, so please excuse any naivete
    Hi there, I'm having the opposite problem of many of the questions I've read on here- the audio on my burned disc won't play on my computer but is fine on my TV.  I am running the latest version of idvd on a 2008 macbook. The music for the menu is a .m4a file (?) imported from itunes and the movie is an imported project from imovie.  Both play fine in idvd preview and I have burned discs of this project before with no problems.  This time  I burned one disc through idvd, discovered the missing audio, deleted the encoded assets and re- encoded before  saving the disk image and burning another dvd through disk utility. Both dvds are having this problem .  I checked sound on my system preferences, it's on- though I can't find the "main audio" that was mentioned in another thread.  Maybe I don't have enough space on my startup disk?  I've been trashing some things to free up space, but I'm not sure where to check to see how much space I have.
    I'm sending these dvds out as part of job applications so they need to be able to play right on whatever the reviewer uses (mac, pc, tv etc.)- is there a way to ensure it will work universally?
    Thanks!

    Ok.  This is embarrassing.  Just saw that the sound was turned down on my DVD player on my macbook though not on my computer.  Sometimes the simplest explanation is the best. 

  • TS2180 DVDs won't play in regular DVD players iDVD burns with no errors the DVDs always get out into a folder ???

    Dear Apple friends The iDVD burns DVDs with-out any error messages but DVDs dont play in regular DVD players I notice that the DVD burns to a folder and there is no setting to prevent this How do you burn the DVD with-out it getting put into a folder ??? Thanks Mike

    That often is a result of using inferior DVD disks and burning at too high a speed.  What brand and type of disk did you use and what speed did you burn at?
    Follow this workflow to help ensure the best quality video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the  File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option.  This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

  • I have created a DVD via iMovie and burned several copies. When played the DVD's will stop and display a message SKIPPING DAMAGED Part. It is not the DVD. When trying to export the project, I get an error message.

    I have created a DVD via iMovie and burned several copies. It is a large file. When played the some DVD's will stop and display a message SKIPPING DAMAGED Part but will not resume. Some work fine.  It is not the DVD. I have burned from several batches. When trying to export the project, I get an error message with the following message: The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occured (-108).

  • Burned dvd has sound when played on computer, silent in dvd player

    I have a file from final cut express. The dvd's burned just fine using idvd 06. When I try to burn a dvd with idvd 08, the sound is present when I play the dvd on the computer's dvd player, and on the portable dvd player, the dvd is silent in the jvc dvd player. I read in the help topics that older dvd players might not play home burned discs, which seems ridiculous - I didn't have this problem with 06. Is there a preference I'm missing? The file, video + audio, is 670 mb. I've tried making an image file and burning a disc with that (by dragging the file onto the disc - is that how to burn an image file?) - the picture looks fine, the audio is still missing. I'm using maxell discs, and have tried "best performance" burn quality.
    thanks in advance -

    After looking at my post yesterday, I can see it was a bit harsh, sorry! We all have ways of doing things, it just that in my experience after wasting considerable time and money, trouble shooting over the years, the suggestion of a once a year install, has really reduced issues with my up-time.
    If you look at it this way, Apple always releses a new OS once a year, so for me, its a good time to freshen up the OS an clean out any issues I've had with the functionality of the Mac.
    A good example was this last upgrade to FCP Studio. If any of the old preferences from FCP or DVD SP were left behind, many people, (here) had issues with performance, or a working system at all and yes for many tossing the preferences helped. For me, the 3 hours of doing a freash install, was worth a full years up-time, (but that's my preference) but as you pointed out, many times not nessary.
    PDTV, again, I apoligize for the poor way I posted and I do respect your opinion on this matter, I however do have a different approch to this, due to time I had wasted in the past. I hope you can respect mine and others approch to this.
    Again, I meant you no disrespect. I hope you accept my apology.

  • Getting Access Error when playing Spotify Connect on Yamaha AV receiver

    I having problems when playing Spotify Connect on my Yamaha AV receiver (RX-A1030).
    It starts playing (from iPad and iPhone) as supposed. But after about 30-60 seconds it stops playing and the message "Access Error" shows in the receivers display. Then I must pause and start play again. Then it will play for about 5 seconds. I have had this problem since the first day the new firmware was released.
    I have tried every solution with no luck. I have been in contact with the Yamaha store and they advised me to get in contact with the Spotify helpdesk.
    I can however play music from Spotify by using Airplay without any problem. But the real reason I bought this receiver was to achieve the Connect function.
    Appreciate  all help to solve this problem.
    Thanks.

    The exact same thing happend to me yesterday.
    I have a new RX-V475 which worked fine from 2014-07-04 until 2014-07-06.
    When i came back to my flat on 2014-07-13 it wasn't working anymore.
    The reciever is coming on and off in the spotify device list. It's not playing anything from spotify though webradio is working fine.
    Therefore the network connection should be fine.
    The reciever is shortly showing the message "access error"
    A reboot of the router and a firmware update of the reciever did not help at all.
    I also disconnected the recievers power supply, to force a reboot of it.
    I have the newest spotify version installed on an android tablet. (I remember, there was an update to spotify sometime between 2014-07-05 and 2014-07-13) and an older version on my smartphone. Both are not working.
    Was there any change on the spotify side server-wise?
    The next step for me is to reset the reciever to factory settings.
    Do you think, this might help?
    Any suggestions?
    EDIT:
    The reset to factory settings did not help.
    EDIT2:
    NEither did deleting all data and reinstalling the app.

  • Many File Types dragged to iDVD, burned to DVD, won't play on DVD player

    I have made a recording on Camtasia (video, pictures and audio). My goal is to make it into a DVD that plays on standard players. Any format I have saved the file to is not working.
    Here's what I have done so far:
    From Camtasia I have selected Advanced Export and saved it as a MPEG4. Then learned that MPEG are not recognized by many DVD players.
    Then I did an Advanced Export and saved the file as Quick Time. Moved it into iDVD, burned the disk and again the disk won't play on either of my DVD players.
    I have done another Advance Export and saved the file as an AVI but now only the first 3 minutes of a 30 minute video are being captured.
    I know everyone can appreciate that each of these burn processes take a lot of time. I am doing them only to be disappointed (aggravated) that they won't playing on my DVD players (I have tried two). I am using Verbatim DVD +R.
    If someone uses Camtasia and iDVD that would be ideal. But at this point, I'd also be willing to try another program just to get the job done.

    Hi Vicadea
    Welcome to apple discussions. I've never tried Camtasia for Mac. Apparently it's not working very well for you even when you export as a QuickTime movie. I don't know what to say other than it seems like fairly pricey screen capture software ($299) just to have it not work as you expected on multiple attempts.
    For much less money and much more reliable results I'd recommend the following for screen capture instead:

    Hope this helps but if not just come on back. Good luck.

  • Url iview showing error when displaying a page with frames

    Hi,
    I have a requirement of putting a site in a url iview in the portal. I created a url iview and when I preview it, it displays correctly. When I assign this to a role and access it through the navigation, it gives an error.
    The weird thing is that, it works sometimes and it does not work sometimes. The url I am trying to display is working fine, because even when the portal shows error, if I try the url straight from the browser, it loads without any errors.
    So what could be the problem? The site I am trying to display contains frames. Could this be the problem? If so, why is it working sometimes and does not work sometimes?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Ranjith

    Hi Martin,
    The issue is still there. But one interesting thing that was noticed by my team mate was that if you add the site to the list of sites on browser which can use cookies, everything works fine. Similarly, if I reduce the privacy setting of my browser to Low, it works fine.
    Again, even if you keep the privacy setting as Medium and does not allow the site to use cookies, the iview opens fine if you open it in a new window.
    Any thoughts on this?
    Thanks & Regards
    Ranjith
