BURN A NEW CD-R - PLAY IN AUTO STEREO , BUT TRACKS CHANGE HIT & MISS

OK,
I am a 8 as far as computer stuff.... Years of this Guinea Pig treatment from computer companies.
Something sooo simple right? I burn a CD-R using itunes. The burn goes without a reported hitch. When I play the CD-R in my auto stereo and the stereo is a new one. Sometimes is plays ok and most of the time when I try to change tracks, the player tries and tries and then reports (STOP)
It stops and thats it. I tried a store purchased audio cd and it plays perfectly and changes tracks perfectly...
What is Apple doing to me?
HELP

Could be the CD burner. Has it been checked?

You reinstalled an old version of iPhoto after you updated your library to the newer version.
Update ALL your software and try again.
Click the Apple Menu at the upper left-hand corner of your screen and select "Software Update..."
Repeat until it tells you there are no more updates.
AND, launch the App Store application located in your Applications folder to see if there are any updates there as well.

You have the accessibility VoiceOver feature turned on.
Triple click the home button and try going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn VoiceOver off. You may have to use three fingers to scroll the screen to get there. If problems see the following for how to turn off via iTunes:

Burned CDs from iTunes purchases play in some stereo units and not others

My car stereo has no problems playing CDs I've recently burned from itunes purchases. My wife's car stereo can't! She doesn't have an ipod dock in her 9 year old car so it's CDs or nothing. Anyone have any ideas why the discs won't play in her car but do play on every other CD player (including my PC) that we own?
Her car stereo has no issues playing other CDs, including CDs I've burned from itunes which were originally uploaded from CDs by me.
It seems to be the most recent three purchases from itunes that are the problem. Do I need to convert the AAC files back to MP3 before burning or some other clever cheat?
Thnx in advance

Thnx for the comments Chris CA.
Yes, Audio CD is selected when I burn the CDs.

DVD plays on DVD players but not on all PCs

I used Idvd to burn a dvd. It plays on DVD players but the audio is garbled when played on some PCs running windows XP. The same PC plays other DVDs ok.
Has anyone had this problem? Does a PC require quicktime in order to play a DVD made from Final cut and IDVD?
Thanks for any help

Welcome to discussions, Rayfred
Does a PC require quicktime in order to play a DVD made from Final cut and IDVD?
No.
Did you burn it onto a DVD+R or DVD-R? Many PCs don't play DVD-Rs well.

How do you copy and paste track changes material in Pages from one point in a document to another and keep both the old text along with the track changed thus far in the new pasted location?

Depending on whether track changes is on/paused, Pages thinks the pasted material is either all new and thus highlights it as a big track change or just copies the old material along with the edits as plain text so that I cannot see my track changes. I need to be able to copy and paste in the same document and still be able to see the older text along with the changes to certain sections thus far. Is this possible? I need a step-by-step "talk to me like I'm five" instructional if what I would like can be done.
Thanks for any help!

What version of Pages?
What OS, iOS or OSX?
Are you sure you have the Table selected and not a cell or just contents?

I just bought a new mac mini and an external DVD burner. I want to burn a DVD video and it will not play on the TV but only on the computer? Need this figured out for tomorrow.

Congratulations on the new Mini. Are you saying you tried burning and it does not play, or do you want to burn it only for the computer to be able to play it?

CDs burned from iTunes don't play in CD player.

This is a relatively new issue - I've never had this problem before. They appear to burn correctly. Sometimes the CD player will correctly identify the number of tracks but when I hit play the CDs just spin around without playing. Other times it the CD player will not recognize the CD at all. I thought it was the CD player but older CDs play fine. And it's not the CDs; I've tried two different brands. I think the problem is in the "initializing" phase which used to last for perhaps ten seconds and now lasts for perhaps two seconds before burning starts. Anybody else ever have this issue?

TS2289 Audio in iMovie 11 files but missing in sections when shared to iDVD. The movie and audio plays fine in iMovie but my burned iDVD movie is missing some audio .

I imported a movie into iMovie 11 from a Canon Vixia HFR 300 SD card with no problem. I have a new iMac running OsX 18.8.4 I think. I added chapter markers and shared it with iDVD. And burned it to a DVD. Towards the end of this 30 minute movie the sound just stops. I do remember some screen came up when I wanted to burn DVD that said something was wrong with files but I couldn't figure what do to fix it and allowed me to continue. Any ideas?

Hi
Either the problem is in iMovie or in iDVD
two notes
No Audio in iMovie
Most common origin is use of audio from iTunes.
Work around -
• Select needed audio to one new playlist
• Copy out this as an Audio-CD .aiff (not .mp3)
• Use this in the movie-project
Other origins are
1. strange / alient file formats as -
• .mp3, .avi, .wmv etc
• Convert them into .aiff 48kHz 16-bit and use this
2. the Mac is set wrongly in regard of midi -
• Close iMovie and other programs
• Start GarageBand
• Make a new GB-project and play some notes
• Close GB and Save
• Now try iMovie again
3. No audio when playback in iMovie 1 to HD 6.
a. in iMovie pref. - deselect ” Playback via Camera”
b. in System preferences - see that Audio out is not set to zero. Mine often does this
without me knowing why.
4. iMovie’08 & 09 & 11
• Toggle audio-scimming by cmd-K
Stuttering audio and video
1. FileVault is ON - Turn it off
2. More than 50 audio files in a movie-project
Mix down to one audio clip
3. Project is stored on one (USB) external hard disk - should be a FireWire one
4. the External hard disk is not Mac OS Extended formatted - but
UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange and this will not work for Video.
5. To little free space on internal boot hard disk.
I go for a minimum of 25Gb free space when project is imported and edited and this goes for
4x3 SD Video. For 16x9 HD my guess would be about 5 times more at least.
Neither Mac OS, iMovie or iDVD can address any other hard disk than the boot drive for it’s
scratch files. (Unlike Final Cut Express/Pro where You select scratch disk/s)
6. Network storage - DOESN’T WORK
No audio on DVD disc.
Most common origin.
1. Imported audio from iTunes.
• In iTunes copy out as an Audio-CD .aiff (Same as played on standard Stereo CD - no .mp3)
• Use this in Your movie project
2. Low - Free Space on Start-up/Boot/Internal/Mac OS Hard disk makes it hard for iMovie to work as intended.
Down to 1.3 GB and it doesn’t work - especially audio don’t migrate over to Media Browser
(iM’08 & 09)
3. Material in iMovie’08 & 09 - Shared to Media Browser and here selected as Large
large.m4v. It silenced out this project in iDVD. By making a slight alteration - provoking it to ask for a new Share/Publish to Media Browser and here selecting 640x480 - and audio was back when a new iDVD project was created including this movie.
Minuscular - - 176x144
Mobile - - - - - 480x360
Medium - - - - 640x480
Large - - - - - - 720x540 960x540
HD - - - - - - - - 1280x720
4. Strange audio formats like .mp3, .avi etc.
• Change them to .aiff. Use an audio editor like Audacity (free)
5. Main audio is set to off in System Preferences - Does this by it self - Don’t know why
Cheque Audio-Out resp. Audio-In
6. Ed Hanna
Had the same problem; some Googling around gave me a kludgy, but effective fix
Downgrade Perian from recent versions back to version 1.0.
That worked for me, and so far I haven't encountered any deficiencies — except it takes more advanced versions of Perian to enable QuickTime to handle subtitles in .srt format — that I have noticed.
7. GarageBand fix.
In this set audio to 44.1 kHz (Klaus1 suggestion)
(if this don’t work try 48 kHz - me guessing)
Before burning the DVD.
• Do a DiskImage (File menu and down)
• Double click on the .img file
• Test it with Apple DVD-player
If it’s OK then make Your DVD.
Burn at x1 speed.... (or x4)
• In iDVD 08 - or - 09
• Burn from DiskImage with Apple’s Disk Utilities application
•OR burn with Roxio Toast™ if You got it

Burning a cd...it's a cda file and won't play on a stereo

Hello
I'm currently trially adobe audition 3.0 with a view to purchasing the programme if this trail run shows the software does what I need it to do.
I am trying to burn a mixdown track which ends in the extesion .wav
However when I burn this track onto a cd, the extension changes to .cda and while this track now playsback on my pc it will not play on my stereo which is what I need it to do.
Any advice?

I am burning the cd via Adobe Audition 3, so I'm not sure how I'd finalise it?
Neither am I - you don't get that option on a disk-at-once system, which the Audition one is.
The CDA extension is correct, but there's a good chance that one or more of several other things may have happened. The most likely, since this CD appears to play on your PC, is that the CD player you are playing it on doesn't like low-reflectivity CD-Rs - that's extremely common, even amongst ones that claim that they do. The second thing is simply that you burned it too fast - and that's something that unfortunately it's rather easy to do in Audition. The third common problem is that you are using cheap blanks with even lower reflectivity than normal CD-Rs - that's never good news.
So - get some decent, relatively new blanks of a recognisable brand, use the slowest burn speed you can, and try again. And try it in a few different players as well. Chances are that this is all that's wrong - and you will have this sort of problem to deal with whatever software you use.

IPhoto show transfered and burned with iDVD will not play

Using iLife 6 - I have 425 photos in iPhoto edited and set to run 3 seconds with dissolves. Transfered to iDVD and created menue and sound from iTunes. The show appears to run fine in preview. However, when I burn the disk it will not run on a DVD player. It runs for a while and then studders or stops. Will sometimes start back up and then stop again. I have tried the following:
Have reduced all of the photos from origonal 4 to 5 MB down to 200 - 400 KB
Have tried 3 different types of master media.
Have tried 4 different DVD players. It plays best on my expensive Pioneer PRV
9200 but still has some small problems and studdering.
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Is there any way to change the burn speed and settings in iDVD?
If you create a disk image, you can use Toast to burn and control speed to 4X or slower.
File/Save As Disc Image...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=164927
This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Toast to burn the DVD. Disk Utility to burn the .img file. Usually, you can select a burning speed in Disk Utility.
There are variations to this process based on which OS X you are using...
Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (maybe the .img) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. A new window should drop down and your SuperDrive tray will open after clicking the Burn icon. Insert a recordable DVD. (Verbatim DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Select a burn speed. Then click the Burn button.
-->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and did change in Tiger.
Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD Media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

Burned DVD plays in Mac computer, but not in other players??

I burned a DVD using iDVD and the disk played in my computer. I then tried to play it in my PC and also on my home DVD players and it didn't work. I burned another DVD and the same result happened: worked in Mac, but no where else. I originally used a miniDV disk and then modified it before sending it to iDVD for burning.
Why doesn't it play elsewhere?
How can I burn a DVD that will play in others players?
Thanks in advance,
Brad

Well, you need to check whether your DVD can play a "minus" DVD. Older ones can't. And Mac can only burn "minus" DVDs.
After I started making DVDs, we had to go buy a new player -- that was a year ago, and now we have to buy another new one because that one has a problem with sound, sigh.
this is a very expensive hobby! But I love it! Good luck.

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 -

PDTV
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.

Burn dvd with Lion that plays on dvd player

I just got new imac version 10.7.3 LION...2.5GHz intel corei5, 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3 Desktop. It has no iDVD. I cannot use my old applic. install Disc that had iDVD ( iLife08) because when inserted, it says I can't open it because Power PC apps are no longer supported. NOW, an Apple Care tech. did not tell me that when Ijust talked to him. There is no way to get iDVD then for my new computer.
MY PROBLEM: I want to burn a dvd that will play in a DVD player. I created it from my dig. camera using iMovie. I tried to burn it to a DVD/RW but when inserted into two different DVD players, nothing. I then read I needed a DVD-R, and got that, but read that will not work on this computer either. I read of something called BURN which is some free software that does simple dvd's, but am afraid to download that and end up running in circles. I sure do not want to purchase some software for a rare occasion when I want to burn a DVD for a friend to play in his tv/dvd player.
Apple care was no help whatsoever.......that may have been a waste of money.
Soooooo, how please can I get my video from iMovie burned to a dvd that will be playable on a simple dvd player????? I still have my old computer in a closet. It seems absurd to think I must drag it out, hook it up and use that when I spent all this money for a new computer so I'd be in some cloud....I appreciate any help. Thanks ahead of time.

You can still buy the retail iLife 11 from a number of online vendors. It will include the latest version of iDVD.
A week ago it was available for about $40. Not any more. Get it while it's still fairly affordable.
