Burning CD issues it seems like everyone else too Error Number 4280

Has anyone figured out what to do with this burning CD's issue that it seems like everyone is having? Now I'm gettng "Error 4280" and I've NEVER had any problems before! It all of a sudden just started, and I JUST want to burn a couple of CD's! I'm not sure what version of iTunes I'm on, but I think the newest one, and now I'm having nothing but trouble. I'm worried about losing my library too and don't know about un-installing and re-installing either. Are they working on this? Does anyone know? I don't know if I even want to purchase any new music at this point ...
Thanks for any advice!

Nope, didn't work, it was already on "Audio CD", even tried buying some new CD's specifically made for music. iTunes knows that have a huge problem with this and they don't care. How dare they just ignore the fact that they screwed up with the new upgrade and not respond at all to this situation. There is honestly nothing else I can think of to do to be able to burn CD's *not to mention that I waste a CD everytime I try, because someone said not to use cd-rw*. I ran all the diagnostics and it said everything as fine. IT'S ITUNES ITSELF.
Thanks for trying to help, I appreciate any suggestions.
Once again, if anyone can think of anything at all that might be causing this problem, please let me know ...

I changed my ID due to an email accessibility issue and I lost access to all my purchased music for the last few years. Been browsing through the support area and it seems like everyone is saying I will have to rebuy everything. Is this really true?

Apple has to be more user friendly than to let something like this happen, right?

Did you change the ID, or did you create a new Apple ID? If you had simply changed the ID then what I suggested above should work as the ID itself is the same (even though the name of the ID - the address - has changed).
However if you created a new ID, logged in with that, and purchased items on it, then you have two separate IDs each with purchased associated with them. You say that you can't log in to the original account with the 'alternate' email - have you tried logging in with the original email address? It doesn't matter if it doesn't actually work to receive mail, as far as logging in is concerned it's just a text string.

Like everyone else...youtube search function is down since three days...any latest updates anyone?, like everyone else...youtube search function is down since three days...any latest updates anyone?

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

Suddenly I can't burn any tunes to disc. I receive an error report - 4280. What's the problem? It all worked fine last week.

Suddenly I can't burn any turnes to disc. I receive an error report - 4280. What's the problem? It was all fine last week.

Additional information:
-also ran "Repair" with new download of iTunes
-am using the same spindle of CDs that worked perfectly a month ago. Tried another brand also to be safe. None worked.
-ran CD/DVD diagnostics within iTunes with Apple Care - no issues apparent
-also tried write-speed 20X on advice of Apple Care (don't know why they thought 20X would be the magic number after the other 3 I tried didn't work)
-tried running itunes in another user account on the computer - same problem, same error code
-Apple suggested it was a copyright issue. I can't even burn music that I created/recorded myself, so that doesn't make sense.
-They thought maybe Quicktime wasn't installed properly, so we checked a film in Windows Media - it played, meaning Quicktime was fine apparently.
Solution:
Unclicked CD text option & Sound Check, ran burn from the File drop down menu (max speed) on a Philips CD-R and it worked! Had been right clicking the playlist name and selecting Burn option from there. That being said, it did not work on 2 other brands prior, with same settings. Not sure why. Just happy it's working again. Is it a brand issue?

HT4969 How come I do not have Reminders on my iCal? Why is it a seperate program and how can I merge the two, much like everyone else seems to be able to do?

The title says it all. I want Reminders "To Do" program on my iCal. The seems like a common sense method of organization. Is it just my Mac that is jacked up or is this an update that divided the two programs?

As of the latest ios version, Reminders are a separate entity, and you use the Reminders app to set reminders.

10.4.7 mail/exchange problem (not proxy related like everyone else)

Hi, I have had a problem related to mail and my exchange server since upgrading to 10.4.7, and it is not the socks proxy problem others are having...
The setup:
I use Mail to access my .mac, one POP, and one Exchange server, and have a number of rules that take 100% of my messages from all three servers and distribute them to various mailboxes local to my mac.
What works:
Everything. I can send/receive mail, connect to all servers, etc. I have no problems in this regard.
What doesn't work:
If my "Inbox" mailbox in Mail is NOT the active mailbox (meaning my focus is on some other mailbox/folder), every few minutes my dock icon gets the red "1" new message icon, and the inbox shows the "1" in the circle next to it, but when I click on the Inbox both notifications disappear, and there is no new message. The icon does not bounce, either. When I have the Inbox opened, the new message is over the exchange folder of the inbox, so I know it is somehow related to exchange. This behavior started immediately following the 10.4.7 upgrade.
If my Inbox is the active mailbox, I never get this new mail notification.
Other things of note:
I have a blackberry that is connected to the same exchange server and is not experiencing any problems. The blackberry is not set to reconcile, so it just acts as a client and does't perform any server ops. No server changes were made, and my client configuration has remained the same for months.
Seems like a 10.4.7 bug to me, but I figured I would try this out first. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Matthew. In my Exchange account on Mail.app I have the same occurrence with two folders. 1) In Publicfolders/CompanyName Contacts I always have a message showing - because Exchange recognizes the folder as a mail folder, but cannot parse the contents (The sole contact on the server) as an email. When I open the folder the notification disappears. Close the folder and it reappears. 2) In Inbox when the Exchange server registers a System Administrator - Undeliverable Message response. My Inbox tells me the email is there, but for some reason Mail.app cannot display these messages. Close the folder and it reappears. Sometimes!
I cannot fix the contacts notification and have learned to live with it, with the Inbox, I log onto the Exchange server through OWA and delete the message off the server. Problem disappears. Chances are there may be an email on your server that mail.app knows is there, but cannot - for whatever reason - display.
Does your Blackberry show a message that Mail.app doesn't?

How can I get a free case like everyone else?

I'm a 67-year-old grandmother who stood in line and upgraded to the iPhone 4 on June 29 so I could see my grandsons in another state when I talked to them on the phone. The only cases available when I bought the phone at the AT&T store were iFrogz. I assume this is one of the third party cases that Steve Jobs said won't get a refund? I spent the same amount of money that everyone else did, and now they will get a free case and I won't. Not fair.

You can still get a free case, just not your money back for the one you have.
Claim your new case and sell it on ebay if you don't want it.

I am trying to burn a cd from itunes and I keep getting error code 4280. I cant even burn cd that old cds that I loaded to my library.

I keep getting error code 4280 when trying to burn a cd from downloaded itunes songs. I can't even burn a cd from my own cds that I loaded to my library. Is there a fix for this?

I have Windows 7 on a Dell. Open and play iTunes in the compatability mode and use Windows XP (service pack 2). Disregard any messsages to disable the compability mode. This has worked for me. I have also reinstalled iTunes and played with burn speeds etc. These ideas did not work. Compatability mode works.

HP account login issues - just like everyone else - rant alert

Rant Are there any plans for HP to consolidate their various systems to allow you to use the same acct login (email/password) across the different platforms (cloud, eprint, etc)? Being able to recover the account information (passwords, login id, etc) on one system and yet still not be able to use this same email on another system is idiotic. Either consolidate them into one or separate them completely. The current situation is a major headache for the consumer. /Rant
I'm trying to setup eprint. My password is apparently incorrect for the email being used, but the system will not send a reset link to that address because the address is in use by another HP system. ??? My notes indicate I have a cloud acct associated to this email address. The password I have on file does not work there. Attempts to reset the password through the cloud system have been unsuccessful. The system responds that a password reset link will be sent if the email address is on file, but no links have been sent so far. I was able to reset the password on this forum for this same email address, but alas this password is not fanned out to the other systems so I'm still stuck.
This question was solved.

The issue you're experiencing is most likely due to an old Snapfish account registered under your email address. ePrintCenter and Snapfish account information is stored in the same place and I've seen this conflict before. You will need to go to http://www.snapfish.com/snapfish/welcome, click the "Sign In" in the top right hand corner of the page and then click the "forgot password" link and enter the email address that is causing your problems, you should receive an email from Snapfish that will let you create a new password there. Once you've created a new password for Snapfish, try to Sign In on ePrintCenter (http://www.eprintcenter.com/) using your email address and the new password you created for Snapfish.

Looking to see if this NFS issue is universal with everyone else

First I followed these directions exactly (and our filer is a Netapp):
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g/OracleDB11gR1RACInstallationOnRHEL5UsingVMwareESXAndNFS.php
So the database has been created as per the end of these instructions. Nothing customized. No data populated or anything of any substance has been done yet.
But if I now follow the instructions in this link (you do need a Netapp NOW login, but basically on the filer you do a nfstat -z to clear the stats, then nfsstat -l to see the top talkers, and then nfsstat -h <IP> to see the kind of traffic per host):
https://now.netapp.com/Knowledgebase/solutionarea.asp?id=kb36582
My top two servers by a long shot are the brand new RAC Nodes. Even more than the VMware NFS IP's used to carry all the guest vm traffic. After 10 minutes the top host had 450,000 NFSOPS. The third highest was less than 50,000.
The bottom of that netapp link states "If it looks like it is the culprit that is generating too many getattr, access, or other requests at a rate of 50% or higher at the expense of reads and writes, you should work with your UNIX vendor or support team to analyze that data and determine what processes on the host are running against the filer to cause so many unoptimized requests."
My values for "getattr" and "access" are 62% and 35% of the total traffic. My reads and writes are 2% and 1% respectively. According to Netapp this is a problem and hugely unoptimized. What the heck is Oracle or CRS doing? Anybody with a similar setup see the same thing? Is this a cause for concern? Should we bring it up with Technical Support or is this expected behavior for Oracle/RAC? Let me know what you all are seeing.
Thanks!

Hi,
I have same issue on one of my two RAC nodes.
We have NetApp 3020c and using a physical Dell PE 1435 server with RHEL 5.3 and Oracle 10.2.0.3 RAC.
Did you found a solution for problem?
Best Regards

Ipod problem, just like everyone else!

If there is a fix to this frozen button issue, can someone please fill me in...?!?! My ipod is in mint condition, and yet one day I went to use it and the click wheel was frozen. The lock works but that's it! This is the second time this has happened, and it leaves me stranded for about 2 months before it starts working again. It seems to have happened when I left it charging to full capacity. I know this is a common issue, as every person I seem to come across has had freezing issues with their ipod.
Nothing works so far to correct this issue, the 5 steps, resetting, formatting, restoring, Nothing!
If somebody has the answer please post it for the entire world to see, perhaps on apple or itunes homepage.
(Oh, along with this I've NEVER downloaded illegal music and therefore I have over $200 worth of itunes music I can no longer use on my waste of an ipod.)

I have a Macbook Pro Retina Display and it keeps flickering. Very annoying. Almost seems like something else is trying to open.

My macbook has suddenly started flickering. I hadn't updated any software. I did go and update to OS X but that didn't help. Is anyone else having the same problem?

Hello abmorgan646
Check out the article below to try out a few things to resolve issues with the flickering display on your MacBook Pro Retina. You may need to reset the NVRAM, if it does not resolve the issue, then there are links fur further assistance.

Frustrating download speeds like everyone else

I recently had a fault with my line last week i reported it and they said yes there is a fault and your broadband would be back up with 3 hours, well it came back up but i never had any call back or to advise it was back, i noticed from that point the download speeds were down to 256k normally 700k, i logged into my bt account and saw the fault was still open so i assumed its being dealt with, when i checked this morning the fault has been closed and i have had no contact from bt its fixed, the speeds have gone down to 90k and have been like this since yesterday. im running a netgear dg834g wirless router and its been as solid as anything, when i log into the router it tells me connection speed is now 992kbps which is a very slow connection indeed, what i wanted to know is maybe i gotta wait 24hrs for the line to settle and the speeds to come back? but since reading in here theres tons of people the same as me so there is def a pattern to the issues, everytime i see an openreach van down my road does my broadband start playing up, what can you advise me to do here?
i ran btspeedster and it just sits there doesnt report back.

ITunes drops out like everyone else - Netgear WGT624

OK, I've read the posts and I can't get it straightened out. My wireless router is a Netgear wgt624 with WPA enabled. I'm streaming from my MacBook Pro to the AirPort Express. I've tried WEP and no security at all and it still drops out. I have the latest software for the APE. The MacBook Pro is 8' from the router and 9' from the APE.
I live in a condo and there are other networks around. Could that be a factor?
Would switching to a different router solve the problem?
Thanks.

Hello grits4jim. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Yes, it is very possible that you may have some form of Wi-Fi interference in the immediate area that is preventing you from getting a good clean signal.
I suggest you perform a simple site survey, using utilities like KisMAC, MacStumbler, iStumbler, or IPNetMonitorX to determine potential areas of interference...and then, try to either eliminate or significantly reduce them.

Can't download Oracle Migration Workbench (like everyone else!)

I too am unable to download Oracle Migration Workbench.
And before you tell me to delete all of my cookies. Don't!
There is no way I am going to do that.
Can I download via FTP or an alternate site?

Try skipping the survey by going directly [url http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/htdocs/devlic.html?http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/migration/workbench/index.html] here. If you still get an error when you click the download links, just use the 'Sign out' at the top of the page and then 'Sign in' again without leaving the page.
Thanks for your patience, we are working to resolve this issue.
