Burning to disk from play list

I'm having some trouble burning play list from Itunes to CD. I get the message "insert correct media", however, I am sure the blank disc is fine. I had been able to burn to CD in the past. I dowloaded new version of Itunes without any success. I tried multipule blank discs without success. I increased burning speed, decreased time between songs and double checked driver, which appears to be correct. any suggestions?

This is message I get from diagnostic check:

When I burn a disk from my playlist the songs are out of order. How can I fix this? Thanks!

When I burn a disk from my playlist the songs are out of order. How can I fix this? Thanks!

I'm not 100% sure but I think you create your play order manually then select the playlist, right click it (or use ctrl+click) & select "Copy to play order".
I think when you burn that playlist it should obey that order, it has been so long since I made a mix CD that I'm not certain, good luck.

When cd jewel song list is printed from play list in Itunes, the list is compressed and unable to read.No problem before lates software change. How do I fix this ?

When song list is printed from play list in Itunes for inserting into CD jewel case, the song list is compressed and is indecipherable. Did not have this problem prior to latest software change.How can I fix this ?

Can you play the song in iTunes?
If you can't the song file is probably corrupt and needs to be replaced.

Can't burn CD from play list, please help!

I began burning a CD from my playlist and it froze up so I ended the session and started over. Now I cannot get the CD to eject from the burner on my computer and when I click on the burn CD button it says "Disk Burner or Hardware not Found" What did I do wrong and how do I fix it? PLease help. It one thing after another with this thing!!!

You're right, this doesn't seem to work. Hit the X to remove something, and it disappears for a moment....then move your mouse somewhere else on the Wish List screen, and whatever you removed is back like a bad penny.
Only thing to do is report it to Apple:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
This is a user board, so nobody here can fix anything. The more people who report it, the quicker it should get looked at, in theory.

Best way to burn a disk from FCP?

I'm having some problems with disk readability. I sent my under-one-hour video from FCP to Compressor and then sent the MPEG-2 & AIFF files into DVDSP. From there I burned the DVD. It plays fine on my Mac and tabletop player but the disk doesn't play on another player. What's the best way to get a playable disk? Starting with FCP, should the encoding settings (if so, where exactly) match DVDSP and/or Compressor's? For better reliability should I burn the disk in Toast, and if so, how do I do this? Thanks alot. I'm not tech-savvy, so please pardon the questions. Also, should Dolby audio only be used if the video is under one hour?

Technically speaking, you don't "burn a disc from FCP." You export from FCP, then use other programs to encode, author and burn the disc.
DVD-Video playback compatibility depends on many factors, primarily the bit rate used for encoding and the quality of the media (blank disc).
While using a high bit rate does help with maintaining quality, if it's too high it can cause playback problems (skips, stutters, etc). Using poor quality media can cause the same playback problems, or can sometimes cause no playback at all. For example, never, never, NEVER use Memorex discs - they tend to always be at the bottom of the quality barrel.
I always use AC3 audio set around 192 to 224kbps ... I have seen some players choke of the high data rate demands of AIF formatted audio.

Can't Import or Burn a disk from a Video_TS folder

I have a series of files in a Video_TS folder that play fine in DVD player (with all menus etc) but I'm unable to burn a disk with them. When I try to import them into DVD studio I get an unreadable format error. When I examinde them in the finder I see that they have a "unix executable file association".
Any idea how I can make this into a burnable DVD image?

Will I lose my existing backup if I select a different disk from the list available?

I have been having problems with my Time Capsule recently (amber light flashing) One thing is did to try and resolve this was reset the Time Capsule which resulted in the alocated name being changed.
I now can see my Time Capsule but when I go into Time Machine it recognises that there is data on the disk but it does not see the backup!
When I go to "Select Disk" I am offered "Backup Disk" and "Available Disk".
If I select the AirPort Disk from "Available Disk" will it erase the previous backup that is on the disk at the moment?

Well, I got my Time Capsule working but now it wants to create a new backup!
I didn't really want to have to make a new backup as I wanted to keep the previous backups!
Anyone got any ideas?

Burning MP3 disks from purchased iTunes Store songs

Making MP3 disks from songs I have purchased from the iTunes Store is pretty inconvenient: first I have to make a Music CD, then I have to reimport the files as MP3s, then, finally, I can make an MP3 disk. Is there something I'm missing? I wish it was easier.

Buy the iTunes Plus tracks & those can be directly converted to mp3. Also, if you need mp3 tracks, you might want to take a look at Amazon.com's download service which offers unprotected mp3's at a higher bitrate.

Unknown Error (4200) when trying to burn from play list

I have burned about 4 disks with no problem from my playlist. Now after iTunes initializes, I get a response that burning will stop. When stopped I get the banner stating "attempt to burn failed" Unknown error (4200)

Hi, Joshua.
I presume you are using the internal optical drive that shipped from the factory with your PowerBook G4.
1. You wrote: "I am trying to clean up some space on my powerbook G4 (not that I need to) but I like to keep things tidy."Be careful not to "tidy up" anything outside of your Home folder or the Macintosh HD > Users > Shared folder. Your Home > Library folder is another folder that should not be altered unnecessarily.
"Tidying" System files can render your Mac inoperable unless you either:
• Have a deep understanding of Mac OS X and the files in question.
• Are instructed to remove such a file by someone with such understanding.
2. You wrote: "Error Code 0x80020000)"This is an "Internal Disc Recording" error.
You may have selected too high a speed for the optical media or the optical drive, have bad media, or be using optical media that your optical drive cannot see correctly. Some new, high-speed media use dyes that are problematic with older Mac optical drives. See Macintosh: Factors That Affect Writing to or Reading From Optical Media. If you've not used this brand of media before, try a brand and speed of media that has worked in the past.
Good luck!

Time Machine;cannot remove my backup disk from exclude list

So I had to recently back up my computer in order to get a new hard drive for my 2009 macbook. When I went to put everything back onto computer I accidentally said "don't use this backup".Now it's stuck on exclude list in Time Machine.It's greyed out and I cannot take it off!
(ps. I know there was a previous topic on this but it's closed and didn't have helpful information;yes I went to disk utility and did Command+I not helping)
I have school documents on there so I need to be careful on what I do!

Answering "No" to that prompt doesn't prevent you from using the drive as a backup disk; it just stops that from happening automatically. I suggest you watch a video to familiarize yourself better with Time Machine:

Any other questions you have should be answered in this support article:

Burning a disk to play on a DVD player

I have at last managed to combine film with music using Quicktime Player. However, when I burn to a DVD, either in .mov or .mp4, although it will play back on my computer it will not play on my DVD player. Which format do I need to enable this?

The way I do it is to close iMovie after saving the project. Then open iDVD and go to the File menu, click on Import/video and that will go to the Movies folder where you can select the project.
One irritation is that there appear to be no clear instructions about removing a theme from iDVD.
If you want a different theme just click on one.
If you don't want any theme at all (and therefore no menus):
How to create a DVD without menu (there are several options):
1. Easy: Drop your iMovie in the autoplay box in iDVD's Map View, then set your autoplay item (your movie) to loop continously. Disadvantage: The DVD plays until you hit stop on the remote
2. Still easy: If you don't want your (autoplay) movie to loop, you can create a black theme by replacing the background of a static theme with a black background and no content in the dropzone (text needs to be black as well). Disadvantage: The menu is still there and will play after the movie. You don't see it, but your disc keeps spinning in the player.
3. Still quite easy but takes more time: Export the iMovie to DV tape, and then re-import using One-Step DVD.
Disadvantage: One-Step DVD creation has been known to be not 100% reliable.
3. (My preferred method) Easy enough but needs 3rd party software: Toast lets you burn your iMovie to DVD without menu - just drag the iMovie project to the Toast Window and click burn. Disadvantage: you'll need to spend some extra $$ for the software. In Toast, you just drop the iMovie project on the Window and click Burn.
4. The "hard way": Postproduction with myDVDedit (freeware)
Tools necessary: myDVDedit ( http://www.mydvdedit.com )
• create a disc image of your iDVD project, then double-click to mount it.
• Extract the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders to a location of your choice. select the VIDEO_TS folder and hit Cmd + I to open the Inspector window
• Set permissions to "read & write" and include all enclosed items; Ignore the warning.
• Open the VIDEO_TS folder with myDVDedit. You'll find all items enclosed in your DVD in the left hand panel.
• Select the menu (usually named VTS Menu) and delete it
• Choose from the menu File > Test with DVD Player to see if your DVD behaves as planned.If it works save and close myDVDedit.
• Before burning the folders to Video DVD, set permissions back to "read only", then create a disc image burnable with Disc Utility from a VIDEO_TS folder using Laine D. Lee's DVD Imager:

HT204406 How to delete duplicate songs from Libary without deleting them from play list or other devices

How to delete duplicate songs from libary without deleting them from playlist or other devices

I'm with you verm71; it's not entirely clear how Apple is expecting you to manage this. I'm going on vacation soon and want to clean up my phone so that it's nice and empty for the new pictures. There doesn't seem to be a way to do this without losing your pictures in the new Photos as well. If imported, it's impossible to see which is the Cloud version and which is the Local version. It's very annoying.
I've also noticed in iPhoto you used to have the ability to locate the original of the picture inside the photo database. That option is not provided in Photos, making finding the original extremely difficult.
It seems to be a great, well-oiled system. But I would love to know how Apple envisions the typical workflow for archiving...

Burning to disk from iPod

Is it possible to record voice via microphone to an iPod, convert to ACC file, then use iTunes to download off the iPod and burn to an audio CD?
BTW, I don't own an iPod yet - the answer to this question will dictate whether I will or not!

Yes, very simply.

Deleting duplicated songs from play list.

For some reason my main library has most of my songs duplicated some of them three and four times. I've been deleting them one at a time. is there a faster way of deleting all of my duplicates and only leaving one of each song?
Thanks to anyone who can help me!
ipod nano (I-tunes music library) Windows XP

I wrote a program to do it automatically for you. Download the "EXE" file from here:
http://home.comcast.net/~teridon73/itunesscripts/index.html#itunesremoveduplicates
It will download as a ZIP. Open the ZIP and run the EXE (teridonsitunesscripts.exe). From the menu, select itunesremoveduplicates (15).
When asked, select the Library playlist (number 1). Make sure you select a different playlist in iTunes (say, the "Movies" playlist) while the program is running; it will run much faster that way.

Burning disks from MBA using Remote Disk

Several posts have been made related to being able to burn Optical disks from the MBA using the Remote Disc feature.
So far all I've been able to perform using Remote Disc is for reading software Installer discs such as the Apple's Mac OS X DVD Installer disc and $MS Office:mac 2004 Installer disc.
Any attempt to write/burn an optical disc using Remote Disc has been unsuccessful.
What does work (as you would expect to work) is the Toast 8 Titanium's ToastAnywhere feature. Having Toast 8 installed on both Macs it's possible to launch Toast 8 on the MBA and have access to the optical drive on another Mac with Toast 8 installed. I've successfully done this several times for burning optical discs. I used my MBA and my PowerMac G5's SuperDrive.
I assume the reverse will work where the PowerMac G5 could access the MBA's $99 SuperDrive for burning optical discs.

Remote Disk is generally used to share a CD or DVD drive to install things across the network so you don't have to buy a SuperDrive. To get to a shared Windows drive, you have to set up Sharing. Windows uses SMB (Simple Message Block). Search support for documents on sharing with a Windows PC. Many of the Mac 101 and Switching documents discuss this also. If the drive is shared in the Windows on the same subnet (you might have to designate a workgroup on the Mac, don't remember) it will appear in Finder on the Mac.
