Keep getting error code -50 when trying to burn a disc. how do I solve this?

Does anyone know how to solve the problem of getting "unknown error" code (-50) when trying to burn a disc? I don't know how this happened

It's an error thrown by Mac OS X's DiscRecording framework (as opposed to an error communicated by the drive's firmware). The message is (as you probably saw)
"The burn failed because of a medium write error."
Could this be a dirty lens issue in the drive.
I don't think there's one single cause for this error. It might be a dirty lens. It might be something else. Not all recordable optical discs work well with all burners. Try a different brand.

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Keep getting error code 2048 when trying to open wmv files, says realplayer cannot open with the installed version of Quicktime, any suggestions?

    Keep getting error code 2048 when trying to open wmv files, says realplayer cannot open with the installed version of Quicktime, any suggestions?

    wmv is a Windows Media format.  I don't know why Realplayer is coming into it since that deals primarily with Real format files and maybe a few generic formats.
    You need
    Free Flip4mac QuickTime player components - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx
    After installation a new Flip4Mac pane will appear in System Preferences.  Make sure you set the boxes to ensure that it will play WMV files in Quicktime.
    or play the files with VLC
    VLC media player - http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ - general media player that plays just about anything.
    While you're at it you might install:
    Perian codecs for Quicktime - http://www.perian.org - plugins to add functionality to Quicktime for playing additional audio and video formats
    Quicktime audio problems, Perian, VLC - http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9013669 - read note about uninstalling prior DIVX support before installing Perian.
    Perian doen't do WMV but it's handy to get many things to play in Quicktime.
    Note, if these are protected WMV, nothing on a Mac will play those (unless you also have Windows installed).

    Hi, I am running the latest Lion update, on my MB Pro, and keep getting the error code 0x8002006E when trying to burn a DVD. Could this be a dirty lens issue in the drive. I see that many others have had the same problem, but relly cant seem to find anyone that has a solution that works.. Help

  • TS4522 What is the problem when I get error code 0 when trying to burn a DVD.  It stops around 60-some %.

    I have tried twice to burn a DVD, and both times I get error code 0 at about 60-some % of the transcoding.  I haven't had any trouble burning DVDs before now.

    I had a friend with similar problem, not sure of cause. Happened when sharing to Apple device as well.
    Apple said to delete all files in Render folder. We did not try that as-
    Problem changed slightly for us, in that Share to 'Apple device 720' got to 50% and pretended to have completed its operation, but no file found in Project Share folder.
    We found then, if the timeline clips where highlighted it would share, where previously it had repeatedly failed.
    Hope that helps

  • I keep getting error code 0x800700570 when trying to install Windows 7 via BootCamp.

    I have tried several times to install Windows 7 on an iMac 3.4 GHz i7 running 10.7.2. I have installed Windows several times in the past to other computers without problems. I have tried 4 or 5 times and removed the partition in between each attempt, alas to no avail:-( I keep getting the error code 0x800700570, which leads me to think something is missing, but what I don't know:-( Any thoughts??? Thanks in advance:-)

  • HT201210 I keep getting error code -1 when trying to restore my ipad

    Hi my Ipad is stuck in recovery mode and when I try to restore it comes up with the error code -1.
    Has anyone come across this before and can help me?
    Many thanks

    If connected by usb try a different usb port first. Let the driver install process run, then reboot your computer when finished.  Connect and try again.  if still having problems - go to Add Remove programs on your PC and uninstall Apple Device Mobile Support and the Bonjour Services.  Next locate and click on itunes in the Control Panel's Programs and Features page. whilst iTunes is selected click <repair> in the uninstall options at the top of the program list column.  Reboot when finished - open iTunes and check for downloads.  If the uninstalled sevices are not offered again go to a browser window and type in each as a search term and download and install both while logged in as an Administrator.  Whilst logged in as an administrator - in Control Panel, click on Administrative tasks and select Services.
    Check that the ipod, apple mobile device and bonjour services are all running and set to autostart using the Service property page for each.  If the settings are incorrect change them to Automatic for startup - if greyed out and inaccessible, then repeat whilst logged in as an administrator.
    Reboot when finished, connect and try restoring again.
    if this fails then a restore using DFU mode will need to be attempted, details later if required.
    Best regards, Ct
