OK, then you have surely encountered one of the many burning bugs that is afflicting iTunes lately.
Since you have already tried the lower burn speed, other home remedies to try are: If you are using CD Text, turn it off. If you are trying to burn a long playlist across multiple audio CDs, split it into individual playlists that are each comfortably under 80 minutes. If you have not updated the drivers for your CD drive recently, do so.
If none of that helps, consider burning with another program on your computer, such as Nero or Windows Media Player, which in your case seems to be working fine.

    There was an error during rendering/encoding of the menus/slideshows. The burning process has been cancelled.

  • Having problems with burning - need help please!

    when I try and burn a disk itunes says no recording
    software found. Everytime I start up itunes it says the drivers associated with burning are missing. It ask me to
    reinstall the software which I do and I have the same
    problem. I have other burning software but cant burn any
    itunes Ive purchased do to the format. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    The german note is:
    Achtung
    Die Registrierungseinträge für die iTunes Treiber zum Import und Brennen von CDs und DVDs fehlen. Diese kann Folge der Installation einer anderen Software zum Brennen von CDs sein. Bitte installieren sie iTunes erneut.
    Could anybody please help me??

    I need more information about your hardware configuration. Run the iTunes Help menu -> Run CD Diagnostics... command and post the results here.
    I'm assuming that you're not running 64-bit windows.
    It sounds like the driver didn't get installed. You could try doing a repair install on iTunes --
    Windows Start menu -> Settings -> Control Panels -> Add or Remove Programs
    Select iTunes, Select Change/Remove button, Select "Repair" radio button, click OK.
    If that doesn't work, you might try downloading just the CD drivers from :

  • Not Enough Free Disk Space to Burn - - Please HELP!!!

    Hello -
    I'm having a lot of trouble creating my iMovie and DVD. After several days of trying to delete applications and files off of my hard drive, I apparently still do not have enough free disk space to burn the DVD. This is very frustrating for me as I've created several movies/DVDs in the past and haven't had this much trouble. (I have deleted the old movies for more space.)
    I have used Monolingual to delete unnecessary language files, and have deleted the iDVD plist as was suggested in other threads, however I still do not have enough free space.
    Any additional suggestions would be VERY much appreciated! I tried to copy the iDVD file to my iDisk thinking maybe it would burn from there since I have almost 10GB available there, but again there wasn't enough space.
    Thank you so much for your help!

    Lindsay,
    One of the problem with the Powerbook G4s is that most of them tend to have small - in today's term - hard drives. I have a couple of external Firewire drives from Iomega that I use with my Powerbook to fee as much free space on the internal hard drive as I can. You will have to do the same.
    iDVD probably won't be able to use a project file on your iDisk.

  • Cd playback & burn quality HELP!

  • Burning discs, help! ?????

    the only way i know how to burn discs is by creating a playlist in itunes and then selecting that playlist to burn and even then the disc is a music cd
    im used to using nero burning rom on the pc, is there something similar to this already on macosx
    basically im asking because its not always that iw ant to burn an audio cd on itunes; if i wanted to burn a data/mp3/vcd/dvd disc, how would i go about it?
    thanks in advanced

    http://www.roxio.com/enu/mac.html
    Roxio Toast is a Mac versatile software package that let's you do disc burning of many different varieties, kind of like Nero on the PC.
    One advantage of Toast is that this software supports many different types of optical drives that you may have added to or upgraded in your Mac, where as the Mac built-in software typically only supports selected drives that shipped in a Mac (only an issue for an older computer that might have shipped with a CD-ROM and a RW drive was added by the user) PatchBurn is a utility that can help add the native support to some drives, in the case of an upgrade drive that didn't originally ship in the Mac.
    http://www.patchburn.de/
    Built-in to the Mac OS Finder you can burn single session data discs, and you can also use Disk Utility to create a disc image and then burn to an optical disc. iTunes has a preference where you can burn mp3 discs instead of Audio format, but I think this only works when you have converted the songs into mp3 format first. There is a System Preference on what to do when you insert a blank disc, you can open Finder and drag and drop items to the disc which is a temporary "Burn Folder" which lets you build the list of files, then you click the little burn icon to start the burn when you are ready. You can create a Burn Folder and save it so you can burn multiple discs of the same stuff.
    Also, the iLife applications support burning your muti-media to optical drives, i.e. select a group of pictures in iPhoto and you can burn a CD or DVD. iDVD also can create custom DVD's of your iMovie projects and iPhoto slideshows, etc.
    Check out one of the "Missing Manual" books from your local library, that might help learn some of the Mac language and where to find things since you are new to Macs.
    Try it out, and post back if you are able to get it working or need a more detailed walk through...

  • DVD Studio Pro burning/ building help

    I am attempting to burn a project to DVD fro DVD Studio Pro. I keep getting an error message that build was not complete due to I/O error. I checked my drive to make sure that my firmaware was up to date, and it was. The file is only 3.8G and I am trying to burn to a 4.7GB disc. I am wondering if I made a mistake when importing the assets. My original media came from AVID Express Pro and I exported as a Quicktime Movie. Can anyone help???

    Well, we would need to know more about your hardware configuration, but to me it sounds like a classic hardware problem... check all cables and connections, and if you have any way to run diagnostics on your system and/or burner, that might reveal the issue.
    Best of luck!

  • Itunes 6.0 - if download is on playlist, it won't burn - Please help

    Hi Everyone (and Toonz, perhaps we can continue where we left off in Dec)
    Basically my problem is that I can't burn any purchased tracks from Itunes. I can burn uploaded stuff from my own cd collection, but not if it has a purchased track on the playlist.
    It checks playlist, ticks the tracks then freezes/hangs and I have to control alt delete to get out of Itunes entirely.
    So far I've updated firmware, tried it with firewall and security system off and pop ups off, tried both cd drives. Tried different burn speeds and cd makes.
    What I have done is managed to burn it to data disc, but then of course I can't play it on anything other than the pc, so that's no use.
    This all started when I had to re-load Itunes to version 6 after a pc crash. The previous version was fine.
    I've updated to the very latest version of Itunes (6.0.2 I think) just the other day, but no joy.

    I personally feel that this has something to do with licenses but that's just a hunch.
    Does anyone know how licenses can be renewed, or se-sent to my computer to authorise me to use the tracks (Media Player has a function that does this)?
    I'm willing to try whatever people suggest if I haven't tried it already.

    Janieburmy,
    You can always deauthorize all your machines from your store account page — just log in and view your account settings and there's a button to deauth all your machines. Which just means for the other machines, it will ask you for your store ID / password the next time you play a purchased song.
    So, let's try the filter experiment.
    On the start menu, click on "run". in the space it provides enter "regedit" without the quotes. This will open the registry editor.
    Find the heading HKEYLOCALMACHINE. Click on it.
    Find the heading SYSTEM inside it. Click on it.
    Find the heading CurrentControlSet. Click
    Find the heading Control. Click
    Find the heading Class. Click
    Find the heading that begins {4D36E965- Click
    Go up to the Registry menu and select "Export Registry File... command. Make sure the "Selected Branch" radio button is checked and save that off somewhere that you can find it.
    Delete the key named LowerFilter.
    Select the key named UpperFilter, right click, select "modify". Then edit the text in the dialog to just say "GEARAspiWDM" followed by hitting the return key, the return after the word is important.
    Then reboot, and see what iTunes does.
    To get the system back to its previous state. Run Regedit again and use the Registry menu -> Import Registry File... command and select the file that you saved off in the first section.
    I'm particularly interested in getting rid of the "AFS2K" driver in the chain — that's a old driver from a company that hasn't existed in years.
    To answer your last question, why am I doing this?... I'm paying off a karmic debt. And someday we'll start that Tequila for Toonz paypal account and then I'll be set.

    try this...i had a 4000 burning error, and this fixed it...I went under My Computer, then right clicked on the cd drive that I used to burn, go to properties, went under the auto play tab, selected the action to perform button for each individual category(dvd, blank cd, music cd) selected the no action icon for each category. Then went to the recording tab and unselected the enable recording selection. Now I can burn every time! If this fixes it for anyone else let me know!

  • IDVD 4.01:  Some menus/folders are BLANK after burn.  HELP!

    I have a eMac, G4, 1GHz, 512mb and up to this point, iDVD has worked flawless.
    I'm working on a large project. Probably the largest I've ever done with iDVD. There are many pictures, several movies, a whole bunch of seperate folders, and everything has audio... The DVD previews perfect. Everything is the way I need/want it. However, the contents of some folders are blank (appearing black) after a burn. I'm stumped? I've tried recreating the folders, movies, images, audio in the affected areas. But, it's almost random! After some burns one folder will come out ok and a different one is affected. I'll fix one and the one I just fixed is blank! Any ideas? (I'm at witts end here)
    I've set iDVD to the 'Quality' setting in the perfs so it rebuilds everything on every burn. I've deleted all assets several times before a burn.
    Thanks in advance...
    spyderman

    Wow. Nobody had a soultion to this one...
    I decided a drastic change was needed. I absolutly had to get this DVD created. I assumed that either there was a problem with OS X 10.2.X, iDVD 4.01 or a Firmware problem with my Superdrive. The Firmware update for the Superdrive required OS X 10.3.8 or greater. So, that's what I did... I upgraded to OS X 10.4.2 and iLife 5. After the 2hr install and updates were applied, I attempted a burn. IT WORKED! I fixed the problem with a $70 purchase on eBay. I'm a happy Mac user once again.

  • Installing External DVD Burner, please help!

    I've been trying all day to install my new External DVD Drive; it's an LG GE20 that SAYS it's Mac compatible, yet comes with no usable installation software, only a disc for Windows. I hooked it up and powered it on, put in the Windows install disc and it reads, but I cannot install anything. I'm sure there's drivers I need to be able to use the drive, but I've been scouring the net for hours trying to find a way to install this burner and the software it has on the disc onto my Macbook, and I read that there can also be problems getting lightscribe to work. If someone can guide me through installing this drive and getting it to work, I would be very appreciative.

    the LG doesn't list Mac OS X as a supported OS for the GE20LU. but I'd be surprised if it doesn't work. In the off chance it doesn't you may want to check out toast.

  • Movie length and dual layer burning - please help!

    I just posted this question in the iMovie forums but thought it might be more appropriate here:
    Hi everyone,
    I've just finished my first iMovie project, and the total movie length is 2hours, 31 minutes. I've noticed from a few other posts that people say the maximum movie length that iMovie can export or that will fit on a dvd is 120 minutes.
    I do however have a dual layer dvd burner on my iMac - does this mean I will be able to export/share my iMovie project to iDVD and fit the whole movie on an 8gb dual layer disc? if so, could someone please give me some advice on the best way to go about doing it?
    I'm relatively new to Macs and haven't burnt a dual layer dvd yet. I'm sure that I've burnt projects of this length before on a single layer dvd using Premiere Pro and Adobe Encore DVD, but I suppose iDVD must have its own length limitations on what can fit on a single layer disc.
    Anyway I hope someone out there can answer my question,
    thanks!

    Welcome to the Discussions Art,
    If you use System Profiler (Apple logo/About This Mac/More Info...) and see that the burner is supported like here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301556
    Then when you are in iDVD the Status window should look like shown here:

    You can make a 4 hr DVD if you set the encoder preference to Quality (limited to 2 hr if on Performance), your set!

  • Ken Burns Effect Help

    When using the Ken Burns effect with iMovie HD to zoom in on a picture I would like to be able to hold the zoomed image for a few seconds. The only way I have found to do this is to import the same picture twice. The first uses the Ken Burns effect to zoom and with the second I try and match the zoom and position of the finish point of the first. There is always a little jump when it transitions from the first to the second. Anyone know a better way to do this?
    G4   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    The trick is to use Option-drag to duplicate the Ken Burns clip you've made, then edit the duplicate clip to behave as you wish. The duplicate will begin with the same settings as the original ends, which prevents jumping.
