Burned CDs Only Play on Authorized Machine

I have recently bought a new PC and I moved my iTunes library over to the new machine and authorized it to play my purchased tracks. Everything seemed fine, I can sync my iPod and play all the purchased music on both the iPod and within iTunes.
I have successfully purchased more tracks on the new PC, but when I tried to burn them to a CD I found that the CD was not playable in a CD player. The CD is readable in the new PC and if I put the disk in the old PC I can import the tracks to the old system and then on that machine burn a CD that will play in a CD player!
The new PC will burn CD of non-purchased tracks fine and they can be played in my CD player, it looks as if when a CD is burned on the new PC with purchased music it is encrypted in some way.
I stress that both PCs are authorized to play the tracks that I have purchased myself.
Thanks,

But as I am sure you realize, your problems of burning "protected" tracks have nothing to do with the .cda files. Personally, I avoid purchasing "protected" tracks; they have no advantages and frequently cause annoying limitations.
Agreed, but if the tracks you want are protected only...
I could buy the CD and rip it, but then I would have a pile of CDs I don't really want. Hmm,so why am I trying to burn them on to CD? Because it's cheaper generally and I don't want the cases and sleeve notes!
I tried some further experiments over the weekend and found that the CD I burn on the new machine are not actually readable on the new machine! If I put them in the old machine they are fine and I can import the tracks!
I am desparate to ditch the old machine, but I can't while in this situation.

Burned CD will play on all machines except Bose Acoustic Wave

I regularly burn CDs (music purchased on iTune) on my Mac. I can play the CDs (-R) on all machines including the player in my car, my PC at work, the CD player at the gym but they will not play on my Bose Acoustic Wave at home. Any ideas?

CD-RW disks are unreliable as audio CDs. Try a good
brand of CD-R disks and see if you have better luck
with those.
And you'll want to confirm that your car's player
supports burned CDs; not all players do.
Thanks for your reply. I have three SONY CD players (one is for recording to a minidisc) and every one of them misplays that song. They are all supposed to play CD-RW discs. I have used the TDK CDs before on iTunes but only certain songs seem to go wacky -- it's like a voodoo curse on those songs!! Why do 99% of the songs play correctly but 1% will not?

Burn CDs to play MP3 format - with Lion

Can someone remind me how to burn a CD that will play on an MP3 player or older car CD player? I've done it before, but Lion has had an update since then...and I can't remember how to change the burn settings. And yes...I am using a music CD-R, not a data CD. Thanks.

Treble clef was probably just printed on the disc and has no special meaning. Any CD-R disc can be a audio disc or a data disc. Which it ends up being depends upon how you burn it.
From reading other posts, apparently the burn item is under File. You select a playlist, then File > Burn I am guessing at that stage you are presented with the type of CD to create.
Older car players probably cannot do mp3 CDs. If you have a MP3 player -- well, I'm not sure how you'd put a CD into a mp3 player. Most ipods I have seen do not have CD drives! If you mean a mp3 compatible audio CD player, for that there is probably a mp3 format selection or you need to create a data CD with mp3 files on it.

Burned dvd wont play on laptop, with Windows 8

I have an HP laptop with dvd drive, running CyberSuite for dvd playing. I can't get burned dvds to play. When I search the dvd drive, it says no files found.

Hi @fjdyhland
Welcome to the HP Support Community. I see that you are having a problem playing DVDs. Is it only the burned DVD you are having a problem with? Do the burned DVDs work in other DVD players? Any issue with regular DVDs or CDs? What is your product number?

Created DVDs don't play on other machines

I have had an MBA since the summer and bought a new imac last week-end. I have created two DVDs on the MBA using the external disk drive. The DVDs play perfectly well on the MBA, but the imac just spews them out. They also don't play on the DVD player in the lounge, but the one in our spare room (£27 from Asda some time ago) plays them OK. Any ideas?

The way to test a finished Dvd (or even a disc image for that matter) is with apple's Dvd player application.
Assuming the disc image plays exactly as expected, then we can pretty much rule out the machine used to create it. Let's assume it plays fine through Apple's DVD Player, then the next 2 items we need to consider are Media and Burn Speed (hopefully set to 4x or lower).
I highly recommend using the highest quality media available for most macs like Verbatim, Maxell, or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R. I also recommend avoiding media like Memorex (at least while troubleshooting on this iDvd Forum).

Video but no audio when played on other machines

iMovie to iDVd. Burns OK, plays on iMac as it should, but then when checked on other stand alone machines - video fine, but no audio at all.
No problems up until recently. Checked settings - seem to be the same.
Using PAL settings. Burning to DVD - R.
Any suggestions about where to start checking appreciated.

Hi Kaik and welcome
Is this an iDVD6 project that you currently have on
your computer now? If so, please try burning a disc
image to the desktop from the file menu within
iDVD6.
Click Here
Then test the image with Apple's DVD Player
application. If it plays exactly as expected within
this DVD Player application then the issue is with
the media, your burn speed, and/or the set top DVD
Player and not iDVD6.
You can lower the burn speed in Roxio Toast like
this:
or if you prefer use Apple's Disc Utilities and lower
the burn speed there like this:
Hope this process of elimination makes some sense but
if not please feel free to ask further questions.
Good luck!
Thanks SDMacuser for your prompt response to my question.
Working through your suggestions and trying to isolate where the problem may lie. Mention of a Disk image was something I had never tried, and very useful for future reference, once this problem is solved.
Haven't got the latest version of "Toast" so will purchase that. Tried a separate Sony standalone DVD player. Video and sound there, but not on the Sony DVD hard drive recorder nor on familes back in NZ. Very strange. Will keep on working through your other suggestions.
Liviing on a small rock in the Pacific and being abe to source help such as yours via internet is very much appreciated. Thank you for your time and expertise. Will be back in touch. Cheers,Keith

Can no longer burn CDs to play in my car

I'm not a huge iTunes user, so it's been a while since I downloaded some new songs.
What I'm finding is that the songs I've downloaded and burned to a CD will not play on my car stereo. I'm willing to pay the .30 extra for each song, but I can't even find out how to do so, or even find anything about iTunes plus in the iTunes store!
I DID, however get a message asking me if I wanted to pay the extra .30 for some songs I downloaded long ago!
What I want is to be able to play the last 11 downloads in my car. I'm willing to pay, but can't find out how.
Any suggestions?

You have always been able to burn even copy protected tracks to an Audio CD. That hasn't changed. All tracks sold on the iTunes Store now are DRM free. Track prices now range form .69 to 1.29 but the price is unrelated to copy protection.
You may still be using the same brand/type of discs but are you still burning in the same format? When you select the playlist that you want to burn to a CD, then press "Burn CD", you get a dialog box that offers you options. Be sure you have "Audio CD" selected.
If, what you're really trying to do is burn an MP3 cd, you'd first need to make sure that all of the tracks in the playlist are mp3s. If not, you'd need to convert them. You'd need to make sure that your import settings were set to mp3 by going into Preferences>General and pressing the Import Options button and selecting the desired mp3 settings. Then, you select the tracks you want to convert, and from the Advanced menu, choose Create mp3 version. Note: this creates a new mp3 track. It doesn't change the existing track. And, it doesn't work on protected tracks. Protected tracks, as noted above, can be burned to an Audio CD which you can then use as you would any other Audio CD.
Best of luck.

Burned CDs only play on computer

I imported a cd,k and burned it to a blank cd, but that one won't play on any cd player, only on the computer! Is this because I foolishly upgraded to itunes 9?

Whoops! Senior moments 5,463 - 5,479. I wasn't even seeing the options to check (i.e., audio, data etc., so apparently it was choosing "data" for me. All very simple. Thanks

One very long song/album wont play, all others do.

Howdy:
I have only two playlists on my iPod, both sync automatically. I purchased a long (64 minutes) Ocean Sounds track from iTunes. It is in one of the playlists, but gets skipped over and will not play. All other songs in the playlist play.
I have rest the iPod, deauthorized and reathourized the account, ensured both iPod and iTunes are completely up to date. I did read somewhere about long file names on songs, and this one did seem to be extra long, so I renamed it. Basically I've tried standard troubleshooting.
Any ideas or hints as to how to get this one to play on my iPod?

Is this the only song that does this? If so, it may be corrupted so try downloading it again.

C# program wont work on other machines using Oracle.DataAccess.Client

The program works fine on the PC that i am developing on i have installed the Visual studio tools from http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/dotnet/utilsoft.html.

Hi,
That error occurs when you dont have the right version of Oracle client software installed to use the version of ODP the app loaded.
What version of ODP was the app compiled with, what version of ODP does the computer you moved the app to have, what version of Oracle client does that computer have, and did you deploy oracle.dataacess along with your app (you shouldnt, unless you're deploying all the files it needs too -- ie, the instant client install).
Does the computer you moved the app to already have Oracle client? It needs to.
This might help:
11g ODP.NET 32bit/64bit minimum requirements to install to a client machine
Hope it helps,

Why cant I burn CDs one after the other?

If I burn a playlist to a CD then try to burn another straight after itunes (10) just keeps asking me to insert a blank CD.
It will only burn another if I restart iTunes. I've had macs for years and this seems familiar to me, I think its happened before with my Mac book Pro.
I'm running 10.6.6 on a fairly new iMac 3ghz duo.
Any way around this age old problem?

If you mean from iTunes Match without having them on your hard drive, then that's because they aren't on your hard drive.

DVDs wont play in player

I'm using my usual work flow:
export out of FCP through Compressor into DVD preset audio & video files, bring those into DVDSP and build a DVD. It's done me good for a long time.
The only difference tonight is that I brought QT movies into DVDSP and initiated the encode through DVDSP instead of Compressor. Didn't get the desired results so I returned everything (or so I think) to factory presets and started over using my usual workflow via Compressor.
Now my burned DVDs wont play in my consumer DVD player ( final test before delivery) but they do play in my mac DVD player. What the F*?

Hi
By a chance, didn't you authored a HD DVD after resetting everything to factory presets?
Hope that helps !

Ipod downloaded song, but ipod wont play it

Please help, i downloaded songs on to my daughters ipod, but now they wont play. Other songs downloaded will play, but not the few she really loves. I also noticed that the
album covers dont match the song on the screen.... can anyone help me???

I would try and reset your daughters iPod (http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/). If that doesn't work, then you might want to use the Restore function in iTunes. Also, you will want to make sure you are using the newest version of iTunes. To check to see if you have the newest version, click Help in iTunes, then scroll down to 'Check For Updates'. If you have already tried all of these, or are not having any luck, please reply back to this post. Good luck

Having trouble playing burned cds on other than pc?

I have finally figured out how to download tunes that I have downloaded from Itunes onto a cd... However, when I go to play them I can play them on my manual cd player ( hand held ) and the PC but when I go to play them in my cd player in the car - they wont play - says no disk read.. Why? I am using the windows media to download and choosing the audio pc option.............. Please help!

Hi, susan3598.
Can you confirm you are using CD-R's as opposed to CD-RW's?
That could be the problem for your car player.
If you eliminate that possibility, could you explain your situation a bit more clearly. I'm not sure what you mean by your I am using the windows media to download reference.
