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.

  • Computer crashed after installing ipod software

    Please, help. My Dell computer wouldn't restart after installing the software for a brand new ipod nano. I'm afraid that it's related to the software CD and I don't know how to get another one under warranty. I just want them to send me a new software CD. Any suggestions?

    Not sure if this will actually solve you problem, but...
    there's no need to order a new software CD.
    You can download all of the necessary iPod software from Apple's website. In fact, this is often preferred over using the CD, since the website will have the latest versions, while the shipping CD might be slightly out of date.
    Here's some links to download the software:
    iTunes 6
    iPod Updater
    EDIT: Just realized I might be giving some pretty bad advice since your computer won't boot. Obviously my suggestion will only work if you have a bootable machine with Internet access.
    My apologies.
    Perhaps if there is an Apple store nearby, you can ask the folks there to put the software on CD for you. Even still, this might be a moot point since you don't have a working computer. You might want to reach out to Dell and get your system in a functional state before proceeding with the iTunes/iPod setup.

  • Monitor issues after installing ipod software

    After I loaded the ipod nano software I began having problems with one of my monitors(I have two connected to one computer). It now will shut down periodically and show that there is no signal. Other times it will display but the display will be jerky and off center.
    Any suggestions to solve this problem would be appreciated.

  • Problem with video after installing ipod software update 1.2

    I recently downloaded the ipod software update version 1.2 for my ipod. It seems to have changed the video screen output as some of my videos now do not play full screen and instead have black boarders down each side of the screen while playing.
    At first I thought switching off the widescreen option in the video settings screen would fix the problem but doing this cuts off a large portion of the picture at the top and bottom of the screen. I can only assume this change in screen ratio came with the update and was wondering if anyone knows of a way to fix this problem or if it will be fixed in the next ipod software update with some kind of option to switch screen ratios in the video settings menu.
    I would like to keep updating my ipod but have since reset it so icould get full screen video playback and have been avioding the updates incase it happens again.

    hmmmm. were those videos that you converted yourself
    with QT Pro, alg2? if so, it might be worth checking
    on the possibility from this document:
    QuickTime Pro: DV format movies may require
    adjustment for iPod
    (if the source files were DV PAL, that can produce
    the "bars down the side" effect ... unlike NTSC where
    you get the "bars along the top" effect shown in the
    graphic in the document.)
    I did convert them myself but but not with quicktime pro will this solution still apply if were to purchase QT Pro or should i contact the company i bought my programme from.

  • Can't burn CD's after installing Ver 6.0.5

    I just downloaded & installed Ver 6.0.5 When I start itunes, I get a message saying "the registry settings used by itunes for importing and burning cds" are missing, and I should re-install itunes. When I try to burn a playlist to a cd I get a message "disc recording not found".
    What up???

    Spike, first thing you need to do is go to your Computer Manufacturers website and download all the latest drivers for your CD Burner. It is most likely due to out of date drivers for your optical drives. This should fix it. If not, Try this:
    Do exactly as I post.
    Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).(to do this, click on start, run and type that in)
    Locate the UpperFilters value under the following key in the registry:
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
    Locate the LowerFilters value under the same key in the registry:
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
    IF this Does not work, which it usually does, Try this:
    the thing to do to reclaim your optical drives is located in your registry here:
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE1 0318}
    You'll want to have that open, and a mini-window of the following:
    START -> CONTROL PANEL -> SYSTEM -> Hardware (tab) -> DEVICE MANAGER -> Offending Drive (with yellow tag by it) Right-Mouse-Click and PROPERTIES -> Driver (tab) -> DRIVER DETAILS
    Notice that list. It references all the drivers that that particular drive is utilizing. There should be a single .DLL (dynamic link library) file and multiple .SYS files. It's the .SYS files we're focusing on, and they should be located in your C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\ folder stem. If you want to open a new window explorer, and go verify that each of those driver files still exists in that folder stem, you may.
    At this point, compare the Driver File Detail list with the Registry Tree Location you're sitting in, and look at the UpperFilterCheck and LowerFilterCheck key values. Your offending key value will NOT be on your Driver File Detail list!!! It might be as small as "PFC" or something else, but that value is referencing to a driver file that no longer exists. Delete that offending key value. Close the registry.
    Close the Driver File Details and Drive Properties windows. At this point, to finish this up, you need to Soft Uninstall (Right-mouse-click on the drive, and hit "Uninstall" ) the drive(s), let the Device Manager refresh... then hit ACTION -> Scan For Hardware Changes ...
    This should start a new Found New Hardware cycle, and.... Viola... your drives should be back to normal...

  • Windows error after uninstalling ipod software

    Hope someone can help. I recently un-installed ipod software due to problems on computer. Anyway since I uninstalled the software I no longer have acces to my CD or DVD drives they show an error message of code 41 that states the device driver was loaded but no physical device is present.
    I know the physical device is there. Was wondering if anyone may be able to help, i am running winxp home. I checked micro web site they say remove upper and lower limits in registry. but not specific to IPOD. Seems odd i would uninstall ipod software and my dvd or cd no longer exist? was gonna try re-installing software and see if it helps but was hoping for an experts opinion first.

    uninstall the drivers for the CD and DVD drives in control panel and system and let Windows refind them. Also you could reinstall Itunes and Ipod and just let them be.

  • Since installing ipod software cannot burn blank Cd

    I've been unable to burn a blank CD since installing the software that came with my ipod. I am using Toast 6. Should I re-install Toast 6 or perhaps install 10.4?

    Nancy,
    First of all, Welcome to the Apple Discussions Forums!
    If you are using 10.3, did you Repair Permissions before and after the install of the software?
    If not, try opening Disk Utility found @ HD/Applications/Utilities/DiskUtility and selecting Repair Permissions and see if then you are able to use the Software.
    Sorry I do not use an iPod so I am no expert in its software but I certainly would try that (also try rebooting).
    There is an iPod forum that may yield some answers for you found here.

  • HT4623 I can't activate Location Services after installing ios& on Iphone 5.... any ideas?

    I can't activate Location Services after installing ios& on Iphone 5.... any ideas?

    I had the same issue with one of the three iPhones I updated on Wednesday.  There are many processes that are working for people including:
    - Resetting the device several times
    - Toggling the "Dont' Allow Changes" setting under "Restrictions --> Location Services"
    - Disabling Restrictions altogether.
    - Restoring from backup
    I was able to restore location services by selecting "Reset" and choosing "Erase All Content and Settings" to set the phone up as new.  When the phone resets and goes through the setup process, I was given the option to turn on location services.  I then restored from backup and was good to go.
    Some people have been able to resolve the issue by resetting but only using "Reset All Settings" without having to erase all content, but that did not work for me.  It took a while to get everything back to normal, but it is good to know that there was a somewhat simple solution.

  • I can not open different sites after installing itunes. Why?

    I can not open different sites after installing itunes. I can`t open google.com or youtube.com. Why?

    Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff: What version of iPhoto. What version of the Operating System. Details. What were you doing when the problem arose? Did it ever work properly? Step-by-step descriptions of how you got to this issue. If something doesn't work, are there error messages? What happens when you try to do this thing? And what steps have you tried already to solve the issue. With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that a helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

  • Time Machine can't find external drive after installing Lion

    Time Machine can't find external drive after installing Lion. I have a Laice 1 terabyte external drive that worked fine with Snow Leopard and now no show ... tried connecting it to front port and Mac Pro can't see it. Also lost Office,Quicken, and Final Cut Pro  says: " You can't open application because Power PC apps are no longer supported" this is Not a good surprise!

    Does the drive work when just directly connected? If so, have you prepped the drive?
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder. If you need to reformat your startup volume, then you must boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (only required for Intel Macs) then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
