Can no longer burn CD from iTunes music

I had no problems burning iTunes before yesterday. Now when I try to put new titles into "Toast," I get the prompt "(i.e. song title) m4p was not added because it was not authorized for digital export." How do I get the proper authorization. Nancy

Hi Nancy,
As we mentioned in your previous post, protected Music Store purchases (.m4p files) can only be burned to an audio CD through iTunes.
Toast, nor any other burning application, does not have the necessary decoders built in to decrypt the FairPlay DRM (Apple's digital rights management) which Music Store purchases carry.
You must use iTunes to burn an audio CD with protected tracks.
The alternative would be to purchase the same songs from a different provider (e.g. Amazon) who do not use DRM technology to be able to use Toast to burn the disc with all of the desired tracks.
Hope this helps,
Steve

    I can no longer burn CDs from my iTunes (Macintosh) playlists.  The songs are now formatted as m4a, which might be making them unreadable by my CDs, although this never used to happen before.  Can you help?  Thanks very much.

    After you select Burn, you need to select AudioCD in the pop-up window.

  • Can no longer burn CDs in iTunes

    I have successfully been burning CDs in iTunes until recently. I can now no longer burn an audio CD. The CDs I am using are the same as before (CD-R, same make etc) and I am trying to burn albums purchased through iTunes. No error message comes up, it just doesn't burn. I have the latest version of iTunes loaded but can't remember when I loaded this. Perhaps my problems have occurred since then? Can anyone help?

    Correction... Running OS 10.6.7

  • HELP! I updated my software and can no longer burn cds using iTunes

    I followed all of the troubleshooting steps for not being able to burn a cd. I was able to burn cds with other cd burning programs installed on my pc, but itunes was the only program that would not burn the cd correctly. itunes would go through the entire process of burning: check media, check playlist, burn cd, finish burning cd. itunes would even ask me if I wanted to import the new cd into my playlist after it finished "burning" my cd but there was never anything on the cd. I also tried playing the cd using other programs and in other equipment but it never worked. I updated my software recently and I thought I could try to go back to an older version because I never had this problem before. However, when I uninstalled the newer version and tried to reinstall an older version of itunes, the older version of itunes refused to open because my music library was apparently created by the newer version of itunes. I don't know what to do to be able to burn cds again. At this point, I would much rather use another cd burning program but itunes is the only program that will burn the songs that I've purchased from itunes onto a cd.

  • Why can I not buy songs from iTunes Music Store?

    Earlier this year I moved from the U.S.A. to Sweden... changing my 'Mac.com' account address while doing so.
    Last week, I tried to purchase some songs from the iTunes Music Store with my American MasterCard (a debit card) which is listed with my Swedish address at my U.S. bank. As I had never purchased at the iTunes M.Store before I was instructed to 'review my account'... which I did. It had my present Sweden address and my Mastercard listed as method of payment. Upon submitting the form, it was rejected, saying that my MasterCard was 'invalid for Sweden'! So I then go to the Apple-Sweden Store and purchase an iTunes Music Card which I receive in the mail the following day. Now I follow the Apple advice posted for purchasing music by redeeming an iTunes Music Card without listing a credit card (http://www.apple.com/se/support/itunes/store/giftcard/#GCA)... except there is no selection for NONE as indicated in these instructions.... So once again when I submit the form it is rejected, meaning that this time I have already spent money for the iTunes Music Card that is now worthless to me!
    Is there another way I can redeem this card without going through that 'review account' window...?
    I don't care to set up another account by setting up another e-mail address just to do this... as I want all of the Apple business to go through my Mac.com account as it should be configured to do so!

    O.K. Everything seems to be in order now!
    I don't know what happened but this is the results....
    After attempting to edit change the information on my iTunesMS account at least 7 times, I posted the above question, logged out of iTunes, closed down all my apps and turned off my computer.
    A few hours later, I thought I would give it one more try and when I turned on iTunes, went to the Music Store and then 'reviewed' my account... it had my old American address on it with the country listed as Sweden... I just left it alone, as it didn't have my credit card info listed at all... Curiously, I'm clueless about that (though I did send this same complaint to Apple during the first posting... did that have anything to do with it?) When I clicked the continue button (without changing any info) it prompted me that I was finished setting up my iTunes Music Store account and I was immediately able to download some songs....(using the iTunes Music card--- I have not tried my MasterCard!)
    So basically, I did nothing except close iTunes, turn off my computer and later rebooted it and opened iTunes! Strange... does that seem like a fix or what?

  • I have the IPOD Touch Generation 3.  I can no longer sync songs from itunes.  They said it is an Apple issue not Itunes since they are downloaded.  How can I syn the new songs??

    I have been given to itunes numerous times by Apple. ITUNES have referred me back to Apple as I may not have the current software on my IPOD TOUCH, model MC086LL.  I have purchased/downloaded songs, but they will not sync to my IPOD.  ITUNES again said this is an issue with the IPOD TOUCH software not them.   Does anyone know how I can get this resolved?? 

    Carolyn Samit, what are yo saying? He say he has a MC086LL at iOS 4,2. That is a 2G iPod. The software update comes with iOS 5 and the 2G can only go to iOS 4.2.1
    For 31MToweVe
    31MToweVeWhat happens when you try to sync?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

    Try syncing using the manual method if you have not yet tried that.

  • Since updating my OS I can no longer play anything from iTunes on my mac.

    I've updated to Yosemite but now nothing will play on my mac in iTunes.  Other videos, music etc seem to be fine but nothing in my library will play.

    It's OK.  I've managed to cure that problem, only to now encounter another one.  Can't get my mac to recognise my iPod now. :-/

  • I can no longer sync videos from iTunes to my iPhone 6 after updating to 8.0.2.

    After updating to 8.0.2, my movies disappeared from my iPhone - it states "No Content".  My iTunes show that I have "Sync Movies" checked with 9 movies selected, but they are not syncing.  When I choose, "Sync", iTunes go through all the steps, but no movies sync.   When i deselect "Sync Movies" then reselect it, the bar at the bottom shows the Purple portion that represents Movies - it goes through with the syncing process, then the Movie portion disappears when the sync is done, thus leaving NO movies synced to my device.

    Disregard this... I found the issue.  I have AirWatch MDM installed.  For some reason, the restrictions blocked me from syncing videos.  I don't know how that happened being that I am the Admin for the AirWatch MDM at my company - I made sure i allowed everything possible being that its configured for BYOD.  I guess something with the update to 8.0.2 screwed with it somehow.  It worked fine after uninstalling the AirWatch Profile and MDM. 

  • I can no longer burn DVDs from Compressor

    As soon as I start to edit the Menu name in the Job Action, it removes the little "[gear] Create DVD" in the job.  Any help?  I tried deleting a whole slew of preferences, to no avail.  Any help? It was fine last week...

    There's nothing special about the DVD burning preset, as it is just using all the existing options in compressor.  Create droplet for DVD burning.  I think all you have to do is start with a generic preset and then recreate all the settings for DVD encoding.  MPEG2, AC3, etc.  There's a tab called end action which you should set to burn disk.
    For more information on transferring HD footage to DVD, you may want to read the article that I wrote.

  • Can no longer burn cds or re-install itunes

    For some reason I can no longer burn a cd from Itunes. When I try to re-install itunes i get this message: 1628 failed to complete installation. I also get this message everytime Itunes starts : Warning!
    The registry settings used by itunes drivers for importing and burning cds and dvds are missing . This can be a result of installing other cd burning software. Please re-install itunes.
    I am able however to import with no problems.

  • I have music on my iPad, but I can no longer find it in itunes on my mac.  How do I get those CDs back in my library?

    I have music on my iPad, but I can no longer find it in itunes on my mac.  How do I get those "CDs" back in my library?  I cannot listen to them on my Mac or put them on another device!

    Thanks a lot!  After I sent the above post, I tried that.  It worked a little.  Some of the ones that I Purchased would not come up.  I followed instructions from Apple about going to Purchased and downloading them again, but ran into another problem.  They are greyed on my Mac and they will not download again.  It says to click on the iCloud beside them, but there is not one visible.  iCloud is set up, at least I thought it was.  I am sure there is a simple explanation, but I am missing it! 

  • Can no longer burn audio cd's -- urgent -- is iTunes update defective?

    I'm a composer-- we're getting ready to record another cd and I desparately need help here!!
    I can no longer burn an audio cd from a play list! It burns but not as an audio. I also looked on directions and I'm supposed to be able to do this.
    These are my tunes that I wrote and uploaded into the library and then moved to a play list
    When trying to figure out what happened, I noticed that itunes had been automatically updated to the most current version on my computer --
    I was still on 10.3 which doesn't support it -- I've since downloaded the 10.3.9 (plus checked other required software that's supposed to be updatyed) and still cannot burn the cd's
    Please help --

    I won't pretend this is a welcome suggestion...but if worst comes to worst, you could consider purchasing Toast.
