    The 2131 usually indicates firmware needs to be updated on a drive.
    Head to your drivers and downloads page for your latitude at Dell, and check for updates to your firmware for your optical drives. If you're behind and you update, does that clear up the 2131?

  • Qosmio G20: Can not burn CD's but only DVD's - power calibration error

    Hi
    I'm having some trouble and i think it's very strange.
    I can't record audio or data cd's!
    i've used sonic reducer, as nero, as windows media player..tried 3 different brands of cd'r and i can't burn audio or data files in any of those..BUT...on the other hand i can burn DVD'S...this is very strange right?
    Ps: when i record with nero i keep having this message on the relatory of the burning process : "power calibration error" but only i when i try to burn cd´s.. dvd's recording doesn't have this problem
    do i need to update some drivers?
    please any help would be super or i will have to make a big trip to solve the problem on the laptop shop.
    regards

    "Power calibration" - When burning a CD the drive tries to write a test signal to the disk to set the calibration of the laser. If it cannot write a readable signal, this is called a "power calibration error". The error message usually means that there is something wrong with the media.
    Please try to use few different empty CDs (Verbatim, TDK, Maxell and others).
    Check also this page http://www.cd-burner-help.com/power-calibration.htm
    Maybe helps.
    Good luck!!!

  • I can not burn a cd in itunes.  It tells me the drivers for importing and burning cd and dvds are missing.  It tells me to reinstall itunes.  I have done this several times and it does not help.

    I can not burn a cd in itnes.  When I open itunes it tells me the dirvers for importing and burning cds & dvds are missing.  It tells me to reinstall itunes.  I have done this and it does not help.  How can I solve this problem?

    I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

  • I can not burn CD's with my Itunes anymore. It tells  me I am missing CD burner and to re download ITunes. I have done that and it stills does not work. Every time I try, Disc Recorder not found keeps coming up! Please someone help me!!!

    I can not burn a CD with my itunes anymore. It tells me to re download itunes. I have done that and still have the same problem. When I do try, Missing disc recorder keeps coming up. Please help!!!!

    Hello again, Stew.
    Also when I open itunes it gives me a warning and says "The registry settings used by the itunes drivers for importingand burning cd's and dvds are missing. Please reinstall itunes."
    With that one let's first try a reboot and repair.
    Reboot the PC (very important), and the do a *repair install* of iTunes.
    Go to your "Add or Remove Programs" control panel, select iTunes, click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    Does iTunes launch without the error message now?
    If no luck there, try checking for a device filter conflict in your registry:

  • I can not burn dvds anylonger with my MacPro. Why ?

    Hi everyone. I already posted this message in another thread but got no useful replies.
    Configuration: MacPro Early 2008, MacOSX 10.6.8
    I can not burn dvds anymore and do not know why. I can play dvds and cds though!
    The following is the usual error message displaying after clicking the button burn :
    I have run Disk Utility from the Install cd of Snow Leopard and the small things which needed repairs have been repaired.
    I have reset the PRAM and the SMC (System Management Controller). Nothing.
    I have set up a new user account with admin privileges but it did not work.
    Please, note that I am trying to burn the same Kodak Pro dvds for photo and data archival that I burned in the past in the same MacPro.
    I am actually burning my dvds using my MacBook Pro connected with my MacPro through Airport but it's a very slow process, of course.
    Any piece of advice ?
    Thank you !
    Paolo

    When you say they are displaying in your iTunes library, are you talking about the Audiobooks section of your iTunes library and not the audiobooks section indented under the iPod in the left pane of iTunes under Devices?
    Is the iPod Shuffle configured to sync audiobooks or do you manually manage the iPod's contents?

  • Since 10.4.4 (10.4.5) - i can not burn Data-DVDs anymore...

    System: iMac G4, 1GHz, 1GB RAM, Mac OS X 10.4.5, 4x SuperDrive (SONY DVD RW DW-U10A)
    Dear Apple Support,
    since Mac OS X 10.4.4 (same with 10.4.5) i can not burn a Data DVD-RW anymore. It is so annoying. I want to burn my backup on a DVD-RW with the Burn Folders in Mac OS X. it is not possible.
    The Finder burn dialog hangs at the "ending burning process". It is so annoying.
    It's not possible to erase this "half burned" DVD-RW too! So I have here a lot of destroyed DVD-RWs around me...
    The burning of DVD-RWs is a problem since 10.4.0 here on my machine. With 10.4.3 it was half o.k. ... But since 10.4.4 (10.4.5) nothing works anymore.
    Your product "Mac OS X Tiger" is nearly one year in the market. And burning a Data-DVD is not a exotical thing. It is a essential feature of a Operating System today. So what are you doing in your Test-Labs?
    I am sitting here since 1 year with an Operating System from Apple an it doesn't works in the essential features.
    Whats about your slogan "It just works"?
    What happens with the quality of Apple?
    Under 10.3.9 Panther i can burn everything. It absolutly no problem there.
    So i don't understand what are you doing with Tiger?
    It's so annoying!
    Regards

  • How can I burn my iMovie project to DVD?  I do not have iDVD or iLife on my iMac but I do have the internal DVD slot.

    How can I burn my iMovie project to DVD?  I do not have iDVD or iLife on my iMac but I do have the internal DVD slot.

    Hi
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    only You can buy from Apple is
    • FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

  • Burning multiple play lists on Itunes

    How do I burn multiple play lists on a CD-R or CD-RW using Itunes?
    So say when I finish burning my CD will have 2 separate folders or Play lists of music thus braking down my music into folders.

    If you want to burn a data CD with two folders of audio files, just do it in the Finder.

  • New problem. I can not burn a playlist to disk.

    New problem. I can not burn a playlist to disk. The 'checking playlist' now takes about one second, looks very much like a malfunction here. Seems to initialize the disk - them moves straight into 'burning/finalizing disk' which also takes about one second. Then 'burning - finishing disk takes a little longer -
    Error reading is "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The disk drive didn't respond properly an can't recover.'
    This happend once before a while back and I thought it was 'too skinny disks'. Using 'printable disks; seemed to fix the problem - until now.
    Blank cd's can  be opened in the finder and files burnt to them.
    DVD's can be burned from DVD Pro.
    Music cd's and dvd's can be played.
    Just can't burn the itunes playlist.

    From your iMac? OS 10.9.2? iTunes? Other? please give as much info as you can about your system hardware and peripherals, OS, software, etc. Is this misbehavior new? First try? You get the idea, too much info is not possible.

  • I would like to take a iTunes play list and put it on a USB drive for my car radio to stay in my car. Is there a way to do this through iTunes so you have all the song info and there's no number in front of the name of the song? Is there a program?

    iTunes only syncs to Apple devices.
    Assuming the media is not DRM protected, any of the media can be dragged and dropped from iTunes onto other drives (external, flash, etc) as the user chooses.

  • Can not burn a Blu-ray disc

    The problem: Can not burn a Blu-ray disc.
    I open Premiere Elements 12 and load my project and then go to “publish and share” my project, I select "create Disc – Burn DVD, Blu-ray and AVCHD disc", I select "Blu-ray", the disc location and settings box opens and the “status” setting indicates "Media not present”.  I know the Pioneer Blu-ray BDR-2208 drive works properly because I have already published regular DVDs in it and had no problems.  I thought perhaps it was a problem with the initializing of the disc whether you choose (Mastered) as opposed to (Live File System). Neither works. I tired Phillips BD-R disc & Memorex BD-RE disc, neither works.  The only thing I noticed was the burner location setting is indicating a Pioneer BDR-208M burner rather than a Pioneer BDR-2208 burner. Could this be the problem? Remember that burner will burn regular DVD's.  Does Premiere Elements 12 require some other additional software on my computer to burn a Blu-ray disc?  Also is there a list of compatible Blu-ray burners? BTW I am using Windows 8.1.

    Attached is a screenshot of the dialog box that opens up when I place a regular DVD or Blu-ray in my desktop computer.
    In order for me to burn a DVD project in premiere elements if I do not initialize the disc with the above procedure I receive a media not present in the settings box of premiere elements.  I assumed I have to do the same thing with a Blu-ray too.  I've tried following this procedure, also tried using the live file system.  Also tried putting a fresh disc in without doing anything to it and always receive the media not present in the status setting.  One suggestion has been that another program is interfering with premiere elements.  I will also go out and purchase some Verbatim BD-RE disc, whether they work right now or not I can always use them later after I solve my problem.
    I Have a lot of great suggestions from you guys and I really appreciate it.  I'm going to work on some of those today starting with loading imgburn and see if I can indeed burn a Blu-ray disc with my system.  I have already created a AVCHD BDMV file on my computer and I will start with trying to work with that and see if that is successful and then come back to premiere elements.  I appreciate the input regarding Cyberlink software.  I have version 8 (came with my Pioneer Blu-ray Drive) and was thinking about upgrading to the latest version but with your input regarding Power Producer I will save my money.
    Another thought I had, with Blu-ray disc burners being as cheap as they are purchase one that has been proven to work with premiere elements 12.1.  Time is money, the cost of a new Blu-ray burner is insignificant.  I will consider this option later.

  • Can I burn and play an HD disk in a Mac?

    I teach at an art school with about 100 MAC Pros; about half are 2 x 2X Dual-Core Xeons with 2 GB RAM. We have Pioneer DVR-112D DVD burners. We can't afford to buy 100 Blu-Ray burners; I hope we afford even one.
    But our students want Hi-Def! They say it's sick, pimp, and dope. (Me too.)
    I found some confusing comments about BD-5, burning an HD file onto a regular DVD disk with a regular red-laser burner. I realize you can't get nearly as much time on a regular DVD disk, and you can't play a regular DVD disk in a Blu-Ray player. But could we burn short projects (15 minutes) onto regular DVD disks in HD and play them back on our same Macs - in HD?
    Has anyone tried this?
    I really, really want to know!

    That is what you want to do, you are making red dye semi-HD DVD (not bells and whistles, just video streams and menus for the most part) so if you make an HD project in DVD SP then burn it to a red dye DVD-R/+R that is what you get, can burn straight from your computer and it will also play in HD DVD players (which will be vey rare shortly ) Some older macs may not play the disc properly nut it should work fine on the new ones
