Backup is asking for a dvd - why when don't have dvd burner?

When trying to use the backup feature of version 8 I'm getting the message, "There is a file whose size is bigger than that of a blank CD. You need to insert a blank DVD." I don't have a dvd burner and can't find a file bigger than a cd.

i'm not sure about the whole not having a file bigger than a cd, but the main reason that it's asking for a DVD is that DVDs have a larger capacity than CDs. iTunes is trying to help you save money by using fewer discs by burning your backup of the iTunes library to a DVD instead of a regular CD.
unfortunately, i don't know of any way for u to burn a backup if it won't let you use a CD...sorry...

    If you mean that you don't have a rescue email address set up on your account as described on the page that you posted from (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • How do I uninstall LV6.1 when it asks for original disks which I don't have?

    I want to uninstall LV 6.1 in order to have a clean install for 7.1.
    Everytime I try to uninstall anything, it asks for the original disks that I don't have (They belonged to my former employer).
    msiBlast.exe lists about 20 different pieces that I want to un-install before proceeding.

    I first tried thru the control panel Add/Remove Programs.  No luck.  I then tried using msiblast.exe.  No luck.  I then brought the LV6.1 CD set from my new employer home and was able to de-install most of the items using the control panel.  Then using msiblast.exe, I was able to remove everything else except the MS Report Generation Toolkit.  I finally used the Windows Install Cleanup utililty msicuu.exe to eliminate that resilient toolkit.
    After that, I deleted everything on the hard-drive that was left.  Then I went into the registery and deleted the considerable left-overs there.  In my opinion, when I upgraded to the Windows Installer 3.1 (Win XP Pro), I sealed my fate in trying to un-install LV6.1.
    Now however, I have a perfectly clean LV7.1 install and am looking forward to learning the new features.  Thanks!

  • App keeps asking for serial number (which I don't have)

    I've downloaded my app (Audition) that my company already purchased for me. The app keeps asking for my serial number (which I don't have). When I'm logged into Creative Cloud, Audition appears in my account. What gives?

    Hi Ratandeep Arora
    I followed the instructions, made the changes suggested, and it's still asking me for a serial number.
    I can't use my app that we paid for. Very frustrating.

    I have just went to use my airplay and my airplay is asking for an apple passcode which I didn't set any suggestions

    In the Airplay settings section on AppleTV there should be an option to enable/disable Airplay a password - basically used to stop someone hijacking someone else's AppleTV display unless they know the code.

  • Update to iOS7 now asks for security code.  I don't have one.

    i just updated my wife's phone to iOS 7.0.4.  It is now asking me for a security code but I don't have one.  How do I turn on my phone?

    During the update to iOS 7.0.4 you are encouraged to create and use a passcode. Are you sure the screen you are seeing is not just asking for you to CREATE a passcode? If so I recommend creating, REMEMBERING and using a passcode to protect the data on your iPhone.
    But there should also be a small "Skip" button that you can tap to avoid creating a passcode.

    it is asking me for a serial number that i do not have it

    Hi Efrain,
    Welcome to the Adobe Forums,
    The order that you purchased in March 2014 is of Photography CC, if the Light room is asking for serial number, do refer to :

  • HT1541 I have balance on $32.86 on my account which I have not used (from Itunes card). I would like to redeem it today, but it is asking for a code. I don't have the card anymore, what should I do to buy song and use by balance?

    I have a balance of $32.86 on my account (from loading a Itune gift card) which I have not used. How can I redeem this if I buy a song. I ask the code which I don't have anymore.

    If the card has been redeemed onto your account then you shouldn't need to re-enter it - I've never had to re-enter any of mine, and once a card has been redeemed it effectively becomes zero, it's value should be added to your balance. What is happening when you try to buy the song ?

  • HT201209 my friend sent me an email saying she sent me a song and that all  I needed  was an itune account or apple ID.  now that I finally got that set up it is asking for a code.  I don't have her email anymore and I don't remember getting a code?

    I have spent days setting up an itunes account.  For some reason it took for ever for my pass word to work even though I did everything as asked.  My sole reason for setting one up was to listen to a song that a friend said she sent me.  She said to just go to itunes and click redeem.   I did this but they wanted a code.  I don't recall ever getting one and I know longer have the email that she sent the link for the song.  All  I remember seeing was the name of an alblum by the name of Deeper.  Please help me listen to the song I was sent. My friend and I have been through some rocky times and this song could possibly change things for us.

    You don't still have the email in the trash folder on your email account ? If not then you can try asking your friend to try re-sending the gift : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1541
