Burning downloaded music to cr-r but discs dont play

hello
We have an iMac with OSx 10.6.8.
We have been burning music downloaded through soulseek to disc to play in a cd player. It all seemed to be going ok- but for some reason even a disc that previously played in our Bose wave music system cd will not now play ( in fact its messed up the Bose which wont play any music cd now).
We have been trying to sort out what has gone wrong and have read various online forums where commentators have noted that you need to make sure that iTunes is set to audio cd, etcetc. We have not used iTunes to burn- we have downloaded music through soulseek into a document folder and have burned to disc from there. Cant find anything there to set for audio cds- it just seems to do it automatically.
We're not sure what we have done wrong.
Not sure how to redo all this from iTunes as we are beginners to all this. Idiots even....
Can anyone explain in words of one syllable how to sort this out?
Many thanks
Rarmy.

Providing that your music file's are not protected and of a usable format?
1. You will need to Import the files from your doc folder into iTunes
see > Adding music and other content to iTunes
2. Then burn then to usable CDs using iTunes

I am trying to burn a music cd on iTunes, but I am getting an error that reads that the cd burner is being used by another application. I know that I am not using the cd burner for anything else. I have restarted the Mac and nothing. Any ideas?

One other thread said it was fixed by waiting till prompted by iTunes to insert the blank disk, instead of putting it in first. Does that work? Found a number of hits on this Googling.

Sync your iPhone to iTunes to copy the iTunes purchases to the computer.
Or iTunes prefs > Store.
Tick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases then click the Cloud icon after the song names to download them.

Hello Rod2174,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your iPod shuffle. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing.

HT204406 I just downloaded music from Itunes Store but all of the music did not download.

I just downloaded music from Itunes Store but all of the music did not completely download.

You could try emailing iTunes support, giving them your order number, etc. or you could just take the hit and pay the 99p. I know what I would do.

My iphone4 stopped playing my downloaded music, how do i get it to play

My Iphone 4 has quit playing downloaded music, how do I get it to play again?

If this is music purchased from the iTunes store, try going to Settings>iTunes & App Stores, tap your Apple ID, sign out, then sign back in. If it still won't play, try force-closing the Music app: from the home screen, double-tap the home button, locate Music in the list at the bottom, tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it. Then try playing your music again.

Hey Karenfromanamosa,
I fixed this problem by turning off the ipad and then turning it back on after 5-10 minutes.
Hopefully then when you play a video it will start playing.

I have downloaded a book from itunes but it wont play. It says it has downloaded and i have checked this against the store. I am stuck

I have downloaded a book from itunes but it wont play. It says it has downloaded and i have checked this against the store.

I've had similar issues. Turning off firewalls seems to help the download to complete properly. Otherwise, I'm not sure what the problem might be.

Itunes has deleted my downloaded music. I still have my purchased songs in my library and I still have my downloaded music on my computer but the downloaded songs don't show up in my library. How do I fix this?

itunes has removed my downloaded music from my library. I still have all of my purchased songs and videos but the downloaded songs are missing. I still have the downloaded songs on my cpu just not in my itunes library anymore. How do I get these songs back in my itunes library?

Copy them from the other user account you were logged in with to your own account. Or if you are using iTunes 10.3 or later and live in the use, redownload them via iCloud beta. See this article for more information.

I downloaded music on my ipad but I cant re-download it on my ipod. I have the same Itunes account on both devices.

I downloaded music to my ipad mini and when I attempted to download the music on my ipod but when I search the song it says purchased and when I try and tap purchased it wouldn't do anything and only just played the song from the itunes store. How can I transfer the music from one device to another?

You might be able to redownload it on your iPod via the Purchased tab in its iTunes store app. Or you can connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to your computer, and you can then sync them to your iPod.

What if I want to download music into my ipod but I don't want it to be on

hi, I'm at my cousin's house right now and I'm downloading music onto my ipod however, she dosen't want the music on the computer, but if I erase the song on the computer, I'm afraid the song on my ipod will be erased the next time I plug it in? so is there anyway I can download songs onto my ipod but not kepp them on the computer? can anyone help?

This is possible when you set your iPod to Manually manage (click iPod in source list, General tab on the bottom). Just drag and drop any songs you like.
Hope this helps.
