Burning to CD

I would like to burn a large # of related pictures to CDs for use on Windows PCs. I was hoping I could put all pics into a burn folder and select burn. Instead of requesting me to put in a second and third CD (and so on ...) it just says CD is not big enough. Ex. I want to burn 1.75 GB to 700MB CDs. Is there a way to burn to successive CDs?

go to file and create a new folder and gave it a name. now select/highlight any picture in iphoto, go to edit and select all. all photos are now highlighted. left-click on the photos an drag without releasing to the newly created folder or export to the folder. you can now burn the folder containing the photos.

i still cannot burn cd. t i can import and play cds in itunes and i can watch dvds. itunes will just not burn to blank cds, and i have tried sever new blank cds, each is not recognized.
i do not know what else to do, i have searched the internet and whatever i saw doable i tried.
when i check the cd drive in itunes i had gotten a 4220 error, cnet advised to download a free error fixer, however, this error fixer gave me and enduser message, so that didn't work.
the diagnostic for the cd burner read that i had to put in a formatted disc with content so i did and there are the results of that were that it read the cd and that the 4220 errir code was encountered last time there was an attempt to burn.
and 'could not open cd handler 32. there is a problem with the installation of the drive in windows or the drive contains a copyprotected cd.
the above is not the case as it also popped up for me to import cd to itunes.
i tried to copy and past the entire contents here but it would not allow me to paste.
please help!

I too have only recently encountered this problem. I have been able to burn disks before but it keeps making all these weird sounds. It might be a hardware problem but the fact that everything else that uses a disk works I doubt it.

I am trying to burn a CD from a playlist in iTunes. I set everything up, and then when it tries to burn, it cancels the burn right away, and gives me the error code: 4251. What am I doing wrong?

Okay, so I wanted to burn a CD to play on players in the house. The songs on my playlist are from CDs that I own and imported into my iTunes. Here are the steps I've taken:
1. I created a playlist
2. Selected File > Burn Playlist to Disc...
3. My Burn Settings are as follows: Maximum Possible Speed (I have tried all the other speeds as well with the same result), Audio CD (No gaps between songs), Use Sound Check is selected, Include CD Text is selected (I have also tried unselecting these two options).
4. Then I clicked Burn
5. Within a couple of seconds "Cancelling Burn" shows up in the window at the top of the screen, and a box pops up that says: The attempt to burn a disc failed. An unknown error occurred (4251).
I have tried different CDs, I have changed all the settings in the Burn Settings box, and I get the same result over and over again. I researched the error 4251, and it refers to a problem with importing songs from a CD. This is totally irrelevant since I'm not trying to import, I'm trying to burn. This is a blank CD, and it is a CD-R. These CDs are off a tower I purchased less than a month ago, and have had absolutely no problem burning other things to these CDs. I really don't want to have to re-import these songs to Windows Media Player or another application just so I can burn what I want onto a CD, but this is almost the point I am at.
iTunes certainly isn't helping me much at this point, and I would appreciate any feedback into what I am possibly doing wrong in trying to create a CD.

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.

I have three videos to edit.How do I save each one so I can burn them together to a DVD?

I have three videos to edit. How do I save each one so I can burn them together to a DVD?

Use Share/Computer/AVI to output each video as a DV-AVI.
Then open a new project set up for DV and combine the three AVIs on that timeline. Voila!

Encore can't burn more than one DVD at a time: Sense Code 56400

For a long time now I've been unable to burn multiple DVD's at a time. I burn more than one and I get an error and have to make a coaster out of yet another DVD
I just upgraded to 24 gb of DDR3 PC 1600 RAM, I have an 6 Core Processor, I have 7.8 on everything accept my hard drive which is 7.0 out of 7.9 according to my Windows 7 Pro. 64 bit system.
I have 2 different DVD burners, one is a blu-ray burner too. I have the same issues, only different error readings it seems, on both drives. The first drive didn't burn even one for some reason so I tried the second. The second drive would burned 3 and on the fourth I got the errors' which I've included screen shots of below. I was surprised I got through three before I got to this error. By the end of the week I have a large project I need to make 30 DVD's of. HELP!!!!!
A long time ago on my older machine I had similar problems and I went through different drives and discs until I seemed to come up with the magic combination which seemed to be a Plextor burner and Verbatim. But, then i got a bad batch of verbatim and tried Maxell and used those successfully for a while. Right now I'm using what a friend gave me, TDK's. I'm wondering if that's what the problem is... HELP!!!!

I have managed to get it to work consistently now. I just burned 20 DVD's without a problem.
I tried everything you suggested except the imageburn software. I didn't like that site, I was too anxious to try and figure out where to download that software in the midst of all the advertisements on that site.
After clearing out everything in startup and services except what I needed I still wasn't able to burn successfully. Finally I went and purchased some Verbatim DVD-R discs and wahlah! Actually, after the first try with the verbatim I had an error code when trying to burn with Encore. So, I created and image file as you suggested and then I used Cyberlink's Power2Go to burn the image file and from there on it seems everything is solid.
I think the biggest problem was using TDK discs. I came to the realization a few years ago that certain disks are not as predictable as others and that verbatim and maxell seem to be the best. I did get one bad batch of verbatim though one time and that's when I switched to Maxell. My friend gave me 200 of the TDK's and I've been having problems ever since. But, I wasn't sure what it was exactly because he gave me those around the same time I rebuilt my system.
I had also found the Plextor seems to be the best bet for burners. But, I had been using an HP one lately and thought maybe that was the problem. However, now it seems to be fine.
I really don't know what fixed it. I mean, nothing definitely worked until I started using the Verbatim today. But, that first verbatim erroring perplexed me. I had done some other things too, like removed some programs, like a bunch of HP printer crap. I even removed my virus software, Window Security Essentials. I just reinstalled it so now I'm wondering if I can burn as consistently. I had seen somewhere where someone said they removed Windows' Defender to get theirs working.
Anyways, I guess what I need to do is format my main hard drive, only put adobe stuff on it, and then take my old computer set it up for everything else. That'll probably be the best thing to do... If I have anymore problems like this I'm doing that right away!

I got an error message while burning a cd in itunes - "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The burn failed because of a medium write error. What is that and how can i fix it?t

I got an error message while burning a CD in iTunes - "the attempt to burn a disc failed. The burn failed because of a medium write error." What does this mean and how do I fix it?

The disk you are using probably has a defect, not uncommon on consumer grade disks. Try another disk or better yet another disk from a different manufacturer or at least a different batch.

Multiplex Error - While Burning Disc Image

I've been trying to burn an hour and a half dvd using idvd '08 on professional quality, coming from and AIC HDV project in final cut express 3.5. It takes around 5 hours to encode and then for the third time it's given me a multiplexer error at the end. Is there anyway to solve this?
Thanks,
Mike

Do you have 20GB+ free on your start-up drive? Do you have any external HDs attached?
Your MacBook Pro hasn't frozen up while encoding?
There is 10.5.2 available today.

Error while verifing a data DVD burn

Hi - I'm trying to put a lot of .wmv files onto DVD+R discs in order to remove them from my hard drive, which is becoming full. Problem is that after the burn is complete, the process fails about 1/2 way through and I get the following message:
"An error occurred while verifying the disc. This disc may not work"
Then it ejects. The disc does not show up in the finder when I re-insert it.
Please help!! I've wasted several DVD's on this. I have also run iDefrag and that has not helped. Thanks.

What brand of discs are you using, and at what burn speed? Also, which drive is in your computer?

Error while burning a movie to DVD using iDVD

I have burned a 2 other movies this week but the last movie I tried to burn didn't work. I tried 3 times (once after restarting the computer and once starting over from iMovie) but each time I got the same error at the end.
Multiplexer Error
The was an error during building. The discs is still untouched and may be reused later.
Thanks for any help.

I had that problem until I remove a good deal of stuff from my 500 GB drive and left about 100. I hear from this forum you need at least 25 GB free. Try it...see if that works....also, burn at the slowest speed possible.

Help! i upgraded my itunes to 7.0.2 and I can't burn my mp3's?????

I am having the same problem like many other posts as to burning mp3's on the latest version of itunes.
my itunes was working fine till i downloaded the latest version and i tried to burn some songs that i even downloaded from itunes. i am having 2 major problems:
(1) when i try to burn a playlist that i purchased from itunes it starts off like it's going to intitalize the burn then a warning pops up stating that 'none of the files can be burned to mp3 cd' then i click on the arrow to see the reason why i can't burn and it states 'itunes store files cannot be burned to an mp3 cd'. this has never happened before i have downloaded music from itunes before and never had this problem.
(2)the second problem i am having is the songs that my itunes will allow me to burn ( mostly transfered from my personal cd's and other downloads) burn in the usual manner but the don't play on my cd player....at all. i am using the correct cd's and my stereo is playing other burned cd's fine. the stereo is not old and i don't have any problem burning other files to cd. i tried everything...i even bought new blank cd's and i'm still having the problem. what is it? and how can i fix it.
please help if anyone has any advice!!!!

No version of iTunes has ever allowed you to burn songs from the iTunes Store to MP3 CD.
I think you need to change your burning setting in Preferences > Advanced > Burning to Audio CD.

Again I ask Itunes will no longer burn a playable cd for cars why???????

I need to burn my CDs and several songs from the itunes store to a CD that plays on my 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe. The previous itunes libraries 7-8 I have had since I have had this car and their burnt CDs worked fine. However now if I burn in this version 9 nothing plays. I Import CDs with 20-30 tracks that on previous systems a full burn could take place and no quality lost. Now these burns in the new system do not work.
Now before you ask me if it was set to Audio Yes it was and I also set it to 2X speed. My Car is supposed to be able to read MP3 CDs and used to read those from my Itunes library but now not anymore.
Also I have reset it to audio and found that at 2x speed I can get a CD to burn up to 5 songs a disc that will read but come on we know something must be wrong, we should be able to double that amount.
Before you ask did you make sure the speed is adjusted to a low speed, let me tell you this, I have been fooling with the settings trying to solve this problem and have wasted CDs and found that of every available speed, 16X was what worked best prior to Itunes 9 and now after wasting CDs and checking settings as I experimented, 2X is the only one to show me any playable music and only 5 songs, I want to be able to burn more than that.
So I have been adjusting the settings constantly and have determined that if it was set to audio and 2x I get a 5 song disc, however if I try to burn more the entire CD is wasted because it becomes unplayable. I have also tried this with every available CD-R which is the only burnable my car is able to play. Everything from Memorex to Sony and PNY and the same results happen still.
I have also tried this in Toast Titanium and in there not one CD burns at all. I am beginning to wonder is it really Itunes that is the problem or is it a problem that has happened due to a update file that was in the Mac OSX update for superdrive.
I checked with my dealership and they told me that windows burned CDs still work perfectly which they even demonstrated in my car, however when we looked at a CD burned from the one apple computer at the dealership, it too would not read. Thus it leaves us to wonder, what is going on here.
Can anyone give me a valid explanation or an actual mac genius please trouble shoot this for me? I need an answer that is better than another question. Please read through this before asking anything please help thx

Okay, can someone please give a useful answer? Thanks! I have been experiencing exactly the same problem for some time now, and it is very annoying. Furthermore, I would like to point out to Chris CA that there is absolutely nothing ambiguous about the original post.
So here is the deal. I used to be able to burn CDs with iTunes that played back fine on both my car and home stereo. After some update, and I am very sorry but I really do not remember which one, as I am just a user and not a programmer and just want something that works, which in the end Apple used to be all about, and therefore do not keep track of all the updates, CDs won't play back on my car stereo. Nothing else changed, still the same brand of CDs (even the same stack!), still the same car stereo, and still the same 2007 MBP. So by simple deduction I conclude it must be a software update. And I do not care what the exact cause is, I just want a fix!
I'd like to apologize for my tone in the above, but it is just a very annoying problem, even more so because it seems nothing is being done about it. Thanks for your answer in advance!

Error message when burning dvd

I have a flat panel 17" iMac with a superdrive. I have recently tried to back-up data onto a dvd. When I hit the burn button I soon get an error message. When I eject the dvd and put it back in to play nothing happens and the dvd is ejected only when I open iTunes. On a third and forth attempt the dvd gets spit out without any burn attempt.
Strangely, the first dvd I put in that was not readable on my machine I put in a Windows machine, which appears to read the dvd and I see the folders that I tried to burn, but obviously cannot open the files because it is a Windows machine.
I have read the discussions and dvd issues seem to be rife. I thought I had applecare but it appears it hasn't been registered and this issue is being addressed with apple. So I have not managed as yet to get any apple support.
Can anyone shed any light on my problem?
Thanks
PS: The reason for the back-ups is that I am soon going to upgrade to Tiger. I see from discussions that issues about dvds are rife.

I didn't note the message I'm afraid. However I have just tried to burn a dvd again and got the message 'An error occurred while burning the disc. This disc cannot be used.' I have tried the burn with two different dvds and I don't think the discs are the wrong ones. One was DVD-RW and the other was DVD-R. I recall that on another occasion there was an error number, which might have been 303, but I can't be sure of that figure.
Whilst on burning to disc, I want to make an image of a folder. I follow the instructions of navigating to the folder and click on it but the resulting image is only of the folder and not its contents. Am I doing something wrong here too?
Thanks.

Error 4260 - I can't burn a disc

Been looking for solutions all day.
When ever I try to burn something it gets to about 1/3 of the way and then ejects and gives me the 4260 error message. Using Sony CD-R Audio 80min discs. I've tried using other discs. It wasn't doing this last week. I was thinking it was the CD type, but I'm not sure. I've been told to use a reg fix.
I'm not a computer person. Thanks for the help.

My old computer, and external that I had everything backed up on broke. Majority of my music I got from burning CD's that I no longer have. How can I get all my music on my iPod onto my new iTunes?

Like I said, my back up broke and I can't get all of my music back by transfering purchases because I burned a lot of CD's I had collected from the past. I don't have any of those CD's anymore, so how can I get all of my music onto my new iTunes? Or am I just S.O.L.?

Phone to Mac,this app lets you easily copy, transfer the music, videos and playlists from any iPod or iPhone directly into iTunes on any Mac.

Error 4280 for Matshita UJ-831Da - Burn no longer works w/ iTunes.

23 Dec 07
MY SYSTEM:
Sony laptop
CD/DVD drv = Matshita UJ-831Da
iTunes ver. 7.5.0.20
PROBLEM:
1. Burn quit working when iTunes upgraded to 7.2.
2. I now get Error 4280.
3. The only change was an upgrade to iTunes.
4. No other software, or OS, changed on the system.
5. Burn always worked with old ver. of iTunes.
6. Burn still works with Win Media Player.
7. Burn still works with all other software.
8. iTunes will not upgrade itself now, nor allow "down"grade.
9. Slowing burn speed does not eliminate error 4280.
10. "Run Diagnostics" causes whole system to freeze and crash.
11. Creating new account on system does not eliminate error 4280
12. Creating new account on system does not eliminate freeze / crash.
13. I have credit with iTunes store that cannot be used until fixed.
QUESTION:
This is an Apple iTunes ONLY software problem. What is the fix?
Thanks,

For my Matshita UJ-831Da CD/DVD drive, the driver version showing in device manager is 5.1.2535.0. I just now clicked on "update driver" and the reply was that a newer version could not be found.
But why would doing a "Run Diagnostics" in iTunes now freeze / crash my whole system when it never did before? It only began doing that after it also began failing to burn CDs. Again, the iTunes software is the only software that has ceased to burn CDs.
Several months ago, I finally reached by phone a girl at Apple tech support who first denied there were any known problems. But when I told her that the web was full of thousands of people screaming about this very issue she recanted and admitted that iTunes was having these problems, that they had posted the fix for some of the other CD/DVD drives but not mine. She then said, "but if you pay $35 I'll tell you how to fix it." Absolutely unethical. That's like buying a car then being told that there's now an extra fee for being told how to start it. She may have lied about knowing what the fix is, but either way it's absolutely unethical.
The problem is iTunes. iTunes changed and now won't drive the same current drive it worked with when iTunes accepted my money, in advance, to purchase and burn music at future dates. iTunes should fix the problem.
I'm willing to go through the leg-work, to try all of Apple's instructions here, but Apple also needs to follow through with this.
Thanks again for your help.
