Burning error (4000) & (-50) --- Please Help

itunes wont let me burn my music, I already look in the FAQ in the help section but it didn't help.
Everytime I go to burn It will initialize and it says it is writing the first song and then almost immediantly it cancels the burn and gives me this message: The attempt to burn disk failed. An unknown error occured (4000)
And so I then try to burn some other songs and it doesnt even initialize but instead gives me the error: The attempt to burn disk failed. An unknown error occured (-50).
Please Help

  • Burning Error 4280 - Toonz Please Help!!!

    I installed the latest version of iTunes, but as many other postings I've read, I have not been able to successfully burn a CD with iTunes since the installation. Every time I get the message, "The attempt to burn a disc failed. An unknown error occurred (4280)." I have used Device Manager in the Control Panel to try and update the driver for the CD-ROM, but Windows says it cannot find a better driver than the one I have installed. I also ran CD Diagnostics in the iTunes help menu and the text is attached below:
    Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 (Build 2600)
    VIA Technologies, Inc. KM266A-8235

    If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.
    Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.

    The last failed audio CD burn had error code 4280(0x000010b8). It happened on drive E: TDK CDRW121032A on CDR media at speed 12X.

    I notice your post has the same bus address as what I talk about here.
    My desktop computer burns from iTunes perfect in version 4.7.0.42 and 5.0.1.4. When I go to 6.x I can't do anything. Go to oldapps.com if you want an older version.
    I CAN BURN on my laptop with new version. It is a toshiba sat M45-S331 with a matshita dvd-ram drive.
    My PC is a dell with a teac dvd+rw dv-w58e, rev D.0n
    Did find something sad and while I don't know much about computer programming here is my take. I think it has nothing to do with the drive, my drive works perfect and as evidence being able to burn in older generation iTunes.
    I think in the new version, at least as far as I can tell, my bus address in my laptop for my cd drive is [0,0] but on my desktop the bus address is [1,0] for my burn drive.
    I think some programmer at Apple took out ability to recognize two seperate bus addresses or to recognize address [1,0]
    Opinions? I'm going to research how to change bus address on my drives and if can figure out will get back here. Or if someone else can, please replay to me by e-mail. You can send it to the following removing upper case letters:

    When I try to burn a cd from my itunes library, I receive Error 4265.  Please help.

    Hello MAGrice,
    Sorry to hear you are not able to burn a CD using iTunes. I found a few articles that troubleshoot this specific issue.  I would first start with this article:
    Can't burn a CD in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1436
    If you are still not able to burn a CD after following the steps in that article, I would continue with this article:
    iTunes for Windows: Additional troubleshooting tips for burning issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1374
    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. 
    All the best,
    Sheila M.

  • Burning error 4000....again

    So once again, I face the issue of burn error 4000. I was able to burn one cd tonight, then it decided that I was to burn no more. I tried running the "repair" function from the "Add/Remove Programs" in the control panal to no avail. Has anyone else had the problem of burn error 4000, and if so and you were able to fix it, how did you fix it? I would like to burn the songs I purchased recently since my mini's battery is being replaced and I don't have a way to back up those songs at the moment, unless I dump them onto my external hard drive....help!

    hiya!
    You mean the one that Eme posted?
    um ... i'm not sure. my monitoring of "Importing & Burning" is still kind of patchy ...
    here's the most complete version of it (for burning). we start with the Apple advanced burning reference:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93286
    ... supplemented by background documentation and on updating drivers and firmware:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300252
    toonz, "Where to find firmware for your CD/DVD drive", 05:55pm Apr 15, 2005 CDT
    ... and then advice to check for more documentation and to submit CD diagnostics to Apple at their optical drives troubleshooting page:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/windows/cddiagnostics/
    and especially when it's a 3000-4000-range error, i throw in the MS troubleshooting documents too:
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324129
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314096/EN-US/
    for good measure, here's the "drive reading" reference, too:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321641/
    (at some stage, if i've got time, i want to go on a trawl through ilounge and ipod garage forums too to see if they've accumulated any additional wisdom on these sorts of errors.)

    This means that either your firewall/antivirus is blocking access to Apple's servers, or you have used your computer to jailbreak an iDevice in the past. The link above tells you how to resolve this issue.

    If the screen shows a plug going to itunes, then you have no choice,  It's in recovery mode.  You'll be given the chance to restore from a backup either from itunes or icloud.
    I assume when you got the message to update (was this for the ios or update some apps?), that was before the device when dead.  At any rate, doing a restore does not change the ios.

  • I backed up my movies and rebuild my computer, and after making sure i'm using the latest version of itunes and quicktime and and making sure i still had spare computer authorizations, i still get error 23132.  Please help.

    I backed up my movies and rebuild my computer, and after making sure i'm using the latest version of itunes and quicktime and and making sure i still had spare computer authorizations, i still get error 23132.  Please help.

    I had this exact issue.  Spent over an hour on the phone with apple support, they couldn't resolve.  Here is what I ended up doing, that worked.
    1.  Turned iTunes match off on all my iOS devices
    2.  Deleted the offending playlists from the iOS device they originated on
    3.  Started iTunes, let it run (literally) for an hour before it became responsive.  First thing I did, before clicking anywere else was disable iTunes match.  If I clicked anywhere, it would clock for another hour.
    4.  Let iTunes run overnight, by morning it had cleaned out the repeating play lists.  This got my Mac/iTunes back to an operable state.
    5.  Restore iPhones from backup in iTunes.
    What was causing my issue was a single playlist that was created on an iPhone, then suddenly showed up with several thousand duplicates on my other iPhone.  The culprit playlist did not, for some reason, duplicate itself on my two iPads.  Apple support seemed to think it was because the problem iPhone tried to sync the playlist to iCloud over and over again unsuccessfully, then it finally went through and populated the thousands of blank/failed playlists which then tried to propigate to iTunes and my other iOS devices.  Seems like a reasonable theory.
    I have not yet re-enabled iTunes match.  So, no idea what will happen if I decide to go back down that rabbit hole.

  • Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?

    Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?
    repeatedly tried from diffierent computers and the same error code pops up (error -1)

    That's a hardware problem which will require a trip to the Apple store for evaluation, unless your phone has been jailbroken, then it's a corrupt hosts file (and we can't help you with that here as it is against the forum's terms of use).
