Have you tried cleaning the lens in your optical drive? That has revived a failing drive for me more than once.

Can't Burn Audio, MP3's skip

Hello,
I just upgraded to Itunes 7 and I can't burn audio cd's. My CD-R is listed as useable and I've used all of the troubleshooting options I could find to no avail. Anyone having this problem.......and what was your solution if fixed.
Also, it will burn MP3 CD's but there are dropouts on all the tunes. It does this in a variety of players so it is definitely a problem with Itunes.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Frank

I feel your frustration. I am having the same problem and we are not alone either. The itune 7 upgrade has somehow "messed up" my previous burning ability. My burner is recognized but the software is absent. There is no way to back up my library to reinstall and I've read the "reinstall" technique is a sporadic fix.

How can i unlock my iphone to use any kind of phone network?

how can i unlock my iphone to use any kind of phone network?

Contact the carrier your phone is locked to to see if they offer official unlocking, & what the cost/procedure is. There is NO other way to get your phone officially unlocked, & Apple does not unlock iPhones.

Mac Pro 2.66 ghz Quad Xeon Freezing when I use any software

Can Anyone Help me, I have a serious freezing issue with My Mac Pro, Everytime I use any software it just Freezes on my ie IDVD, I tried Instaling a new OS System, and repalaced a new Hardrive but with no joy, I'm Guessing its the graphic card now but I dont want to waste anymore money until I'm sure.
ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 SDRAM used to give me dual screen display until the right side failed so now I'm only using one screen, also everytime I'm displaying a video their are thin random lines and a bit of screen display distortions before it eventually freezes on me.
Please Help

Mac Pro 1,1 (all Mac Pro models come with Xeon).
What matters is cleaning the X1900 of dust and from clogging intake and exhaust - every three months.
Run Apple Hardware Test from your OEM DVD.
Install SmcFanControl 2.x and keep the fans rpm to 800-900 instead of 499-599 base as minimum at least.
Monitor temperatures with Hardware Monitor or similar.
Have you been looking to see in System Profile: Memory if there are any errors?
Normally, clone backup update weekly and running Disk Warrior at the same time should be done to spot disk directory and file system problems before they get worse. Or any time your system freezes.
Freeze... and what you have 90% of the time is a corrupt directory and other errors.
At which time you may need to restore if you can't fix the problem. And don't rely on only Apple DU First Aid to find and repairs any and all errors.
For Snow Leopard maybe a flashed ATI 4870 to replace the X1900.
You may need to start over from scratch to get things stable once you find what is happening, and work with a test system until then with some trial and error. Format/initialize and clean install of 10.6.x for the OEM 10.4.7+.
At nearly 4 yrs now since it came out, not sure if you have plans for a new one.

Aha! I have sorted it.

Can't burn blank CD after installing ipod software

Can't burn blank CD after installing ipod software - I have the system prefs set to launch Toast 6 when inserting a blank disk, and the drive just churns and then ejects the CD. It mounts and runs burned music and data disks with no problem.
My job requires me to burn data disks from pictures I take at work. Should I re-install Toast? The OS? I ran Disk Utility to check/fix permissions, and no change.

The CD that came with the nano won't have anything on it that you won't get with a full iTunes install. In fact, it may have been an OLDER version of the iTunes software than what you had installed before.
I'd reccomend downloading the latest version of iTunes from Apple and installing that to rule out software reversion issues.
If the problem still exists, try booting into toast before inserting the blank disk and see if Toast can still burn to the CD. If it can, then odds are you have to re-instruct your computer to boot toast when a blank CD is inserted. If it can't see the blank CD, or the Finder spits it out again, then I think you'd have to re-install Toast.

Can you burn an AVCHD DVD using Premiere Pro 4.1?

Alright I've been hunting the forums and net for a few hours on this one question.
I import my AVCHD video files using Sony Picture Motion Browser for the HDR SR-12 using the full HD setting (1920x1080i) I then pull these into Premiere 4.2.1 and have created an edit, my question is, it possible to output to an AVCHD DVD i.e. a standard DVD-R with the AVCHD edit on it from Premiere/Encore?
It's easy to burn clips straight to AVCHD DVD using Sony PMB, but not an edited file.
I realize there are no menus possible if you do it this way, but I have an AVCHD capable DVD deck and an HD Capable screen and would really like to see how this looks. Anybody know any tricks or workarounds for this? It seems that this would be sadly lacking if it was not possible or simply an effort to force one to adapt the entire workflow to Blu-Ray for HD content which I am not prepared to do.
I am assuming that if you could export the same file type that came in (i.e. AVCHD .mts files) that you could then have Sony PMB burn it to AVCHD DVD but I haven't figured out how to export it as such as there is only Blu-Ray output options.
Any help, tips or tricks would be appreciated!!!!
Regards,
DSW

Answering myself here for the benefit of anyone else trying to solve this problem.
I have been pulling my hair out trying to solve this problem for the last 48 hours of utilizing AVCHD footage at AVCHD quality. I finally did find somewhat of a work around, but it requires Adobe PP CS4.2.
There is a plug-in here:
http://www.mainconcept.com/site/prosumer-products-4/mpeg-pro-hd-7850/features-7861.html
Which will actually output your edit as an AVCHD file. You can then burn this straight to an AVCHD using Nero 9 and keep the highquality level of your clips and not need Blu-Ray. The DVD player will need to be AVCHD capable, but I just bought one of those for $40 as compared to the $200+ of most Blu-Ray players.
Or if you want to be really sneaky, you can transfer it back onto your camera and play it straight to your TV using the HDMI cable.
Hope that helps anyone stuck with the same problem.

DSW

Can't burn audio CD with new iTunes 7.0.1.8

I installed iTunes 7.0.1.8 and now I cannot burn audio CDs. I can only burn data CDs. When I try to change preferences under "edit" "preferences" "advanced" "burning" to audio there is not way to save the change. In other words, there is no "ok" button. It reverts back to data CD and the button on the bottom right remains "burn data disc". Any suggestions?

I'm having troubles, too. If anyone could help, I'd appreciate it.
1) How do I manually delete my podcasts now that they don't show up in my library any longer?
2) Also, none of my non-music items are showing up anywhere in my library as they are not music. Items like books on CD that I downloaded and are genres for audiobooks but the system doesn't consider them audiobooks. Please help!
Thanks.

Can't Create PDF "from file" using any MS Office files

Acrobat 8.1.1 Pro. (OS = XP), as part of the CS3 premium edition.
I can no longer get Acrobat to recognize any of the MS Office applications extensions (.doc, .ppt, etc...) for use with either Create PDF "From File" or when using the Combine Files feature to Merge or Package. The extensions are no longer even listed as an option in the dialog box, or in the Preference settings under "Convert to PDF".
FYI- I can still use the PDF Maker functionality from within the MS Office application to create a PDF.
Any Idea what could have happened, or more importantly how to fix?
***Update***
I have re-installed the Acrobat 8 application, and the problem still exists.
I'm truly puzzled.

I get this with my PC and I ran detect-repair and reinstalled. Some PDF's I can open and other's I cannot. I can send the email to a cohort and they can open fine.
"Can't create file: Right-click the folder you want to create the file in and then click Properties on the shortcut menu to check your permissions for the folder"
Any ideas would be great.
Thanks!

How can I burn Audio-CD's and .cue files on my iMac.

Since a few months I stepped over from Windows to iMac, I am satisfied I did that, but now I am at a point that I regret it !!
I tried for the first time to burn an Audio-CD on my mac, first with the help of the programs BURN and SimplyBurn, but I did not succeed to get a Audio CD that also worked on my Stereo set. Also trying to burn a .cue file was a dissaster.
I also tried Finder and iTunes, well the with Finder burned CD did not play on my Stereo, iTunes did not burn my music, maybe because it was not downloaded from iTunes, because the burn entry was not in the menu bar.
I also went to an help desk, but the gave me some unclear answers.
So you can imagine I'm very disapointed, not succeding to burn a simple CD or .cue file, right now I'm happy I did not get rid of my Windows machine.
Please a solution for this "problem" and what kind of burn programs can you advise I should use, and that I stay in the Apple communtiy and not go back to Windows ??
JMGD.

Thanks for your answer. But I tried to burn an image with the program BURN yesterday, without succes. The file I tried to burn was a 350MB big file to a CD, BURN told me the file was 1.5TB big !!!! and did not burn it.
I burned it on my Windows machine with NERO and that worked !
Also today Itried to burn a normal Mp3 album to disk with BURN, without result, I got an answer from BURN telling me "One of the volumes on this medium is still in use" not nowing what this means !!

Can't burn audio CD - songs in this playlist will not fit on one Audio CD.

I have iTunes 6.0.3.5. runing on Windows XP SP2, fully patched.
I'm trying to write an Audio CD from iTunes, I used to be able to do this (before Christmas), but now can't. Even if I create a new playlist with just one track in it and try to write this track (whether an MP3 or M4P downloaded from iTunes store), it comes up with the message:
The songs in this playlist will not fit on one Audio CD. Do you want to create multiple Audio CDs with this playlist split across them? This will require more than one blank CD to complete.
Even if I select Audio CDs, it doesn't write them, it just comes up with the same message again.
I've tried this on my laptop too, same result, I completely re-installed my laptop (XP, everything) too....
I've tried it on my daughters PC and it * does * work ok (same version of iTunes)...
Any ideas?
Thanks
Compaq S5600UK Windows XP

If I use a different brand of CD-R it now works (found this suggestion in the answer to another similar question).
I was using Memorex which didn't work on my PC or Laptop, but works ok on my daughter's PC.
Maxell works ok.
Why? Anything I can do to fix it?
Thanks
