Finding this Post took some time but I thought it was me talking when I read it. I was having the exact same issue. I have a G3 I've been upgrading like mad, including a Sonnet G4-500 CPU a Maxtor 60gb & 80gb HDs 1gb of RAM a new LaCie Firewire800 PCI card Graphics card etc. the latest was installing Panther 10.3.9 on the new 80gb HD and also swapping out the old CD-ROM and replacing with the (Apple standard) Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-110D combo drive in it's place. got everything up and booted and poof! no burning. Toast worked read/write no problem. iTunes could read and import no problem, but wouldn't burn a CD.
Downloaded "PatchBurn 3.1.3" installed, re-booted and all is OK in burner land again :>)
I wanted to just post my additional thanks to the lead to Patchburner, and I'm going to donate to the cause. It's worth a $20 donation just for my joy of not throwing this computer out the window!!

  • Cannot burn CD after upgrading to iTunes 8.0.2

    I have tried repeatedly to burn a CD with new version of ITunes and the burn freezes at the beginning of the first song. Have wasted 5 blank CD's trying different song lists from various sources. Is there a fix, or is there a way I can reinstall ITunes to see if something happened during the upgrade install?
    I am using the CD equipment that came with my Mac.

    Had the same problem with the new update. I finally got back to my previous version by using system restore. After the restore I had to go to the "All Programs" list and click on Quicktime and iTunes individually to allow them to re-configure, then had to restart the computer again. After that all's well. My lbrary was intact.
    I tried everything to get the newest version to work, including completely uninstalling my current versions of QT and iTunes, then downloading the latest directly from the Apple website, but, after 3 attempts, nothing worked. Guess I'll have to wait for the next update and try again.
    By the way, your library is not actually stored in iTunes--it is stored in your Music folder, so you should not lose anything by uninstalling iTunes if you need to.

  • Cannot Burn CDs Since I Transfered Itunes to an External Dirve

    Hello
    I need help with Itunes, Itunes does not open. Also I cannot burn Cds since I transfered Itunes to external dirve.
    Please help.
    Steve

    iPods don't look for the library. iTunes does.
    I recently moved my itunes music folder
    Don't move your music folder.
    Let iTunes do it.
    Point iTunes prefs to the location where you wan tit.
    Then go to menu Advanced -> *Consolidate library*.
    This will copy the iTunes music folder to the location in iTunes prefs.

  • QuickTime in Safari cannot play video after upgrading to iTunes 10.2

    After upgrading to iTunes 10.2 and QuickTime 10 on my MacBook Pro, the latest Quicktime version embedded in Safari is behaving strangely. When I want to play video on certain websites like " http://www.lynda.com/Aperture-3-tutorials/essential-training/59221-2.html ", the Quicktime logo on Safari browser appears and just sits there with sound only. I tried it on Firefox, the video can only be played on the lower part of my suddenly splitted screen, there is an "error" message on a Quicktime logo background.
    Could anybody help me solve the problem. By the way, all these videos can be played normally on my Windows 7 desktop using both Firefox and Safari for Windows.

    To make the matter more weird, the QuickTime plays normally on my Safari after I log out and switch to the administrator account of the MacBook Pro. When I change back to a normal account, the QuickTime error takes place again. It seems there must be something I configured wrongly.

  • Cannot burn CDs or back up iTunes--error #4450

    I can't burn CDs or back up iTunes. I keep getting error message 4450 (unspecified error). Does anyone know how to fix this? It sounds like a different problem than the one discussed in the earlier thread.

    Same thing here. I was able to burn CDs on Saturday, but not today for some reason. Error 4450. However, I can play the same CD I just tried to burn through Windows Media Player. But iTunes won't recognize the disk when I try to reload it. Looks like Apple really screwed everyone who has a PC on this most recent update. Hmmmm...perhaps that's their way of 'encouraging' people to buy Mac. Maybe Steve Jobs should spend less time hanging out with Bono and more time developing software that actually works.

    This thread talks about error 2131 and Dell computers. About 3/4 of the way down someone posts a link to a firmware download that seems to solve the problem for a lot of people. Maybe it will help you too.

  • Cannot delete tracks after upgrading to iTunes 9

    I upgraded to iTunes 9 today. Added a 14 tracks from a new album. Then when I went in to the tag details to bulk edit the album name, it only edited 13 of 14 tracks. I selected only the last track to try and edit it singularly, but the tag info has been grayed out and I cannot touch it. I cannot delete this track, I cannot edit it, and if I delete the whole album, just this track stays.
    I checked permissions and I have the rights to read write this track. The permissions for this one track are no different from any other. Help!

    I've encountered problems similar to this. Here's how I've dealt with it.
    First, carefully examine permissions issues and refresh the iTunes library info if necessary. If you don't have write permissions for the folder containing the files or for the files themselves, iTunes will refuse to rewrite the tags even though it appears to take. You can set this by going to the Finder and using Get Info. If you've already added the files to your iTunes library while they were write locked for you, you will need to clear them from your iTunes library. For this, I typically copy the source audio to another location, delete the original location, remove dead tracks from iTunes (using Doug's Super Remove Dead Tracks ( http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=removedeadsuper )), then copy the files back to their original location (with all permissions issues solved) and trying adding to iTunes again.
    Even trying this, I've found some strangely coded mp3 audio tracks that don't allow you to alter tags in iTunes. I've gotten around this by importing each mp3 track into Fission (third party app) and saving back out as a new file. Fission doesn't reencode the audio, so you don't get additional lossy degradation. Doing this will clear up the quirky file headers/wrapper/metadata to make it iTunes tag friendly. While this last solution is tedious, it does fix finicky files.

  • I cannot restore ipad after upgrading to itunes 10.2.2.14

    Since upgrading my Ipad to latest revision of Itunes,  I can no longer sync and it now requires a restore.  I took the Ipad to Best Buy and they restored it,  but when I connected it back onto my PC,  same thing happens.  When I goto restore screen and click on restore,  the block of info that comes up with ref X says, Software for this Iphone is not currently available. Make sure you  have the latest version of Iteunes and try again.  I check upgrade and it says I am current.  What gives.???  This is second time for me in last year after an upgrade once before. 

    Same problem but using Windows 7 32 bit (German version).
    De-installing and re-installing iTunes didn´t help.
    I "downgraded" back to iTunes 10.1.2 and the error vanished.

    On FileHippo go to the iTunes page. On the right you´ll see earlier versions.
    And I had to replace my library file with the back-up version from yesterday.

  • Cannot burn CDs after installing Tiger

    I recently installed Tiger on my G4. When I try to copy a CD in Toast Lite, I get a message reading, "The volume...could not be unmounted. All open files and programs on this volume must be closed first." However, I have no trouble burning individual audio or other files to a disc, the problem only occurs when I try to copy a CD, even if it is not copyright protected. I also tried to access the Lacie website to see if I need any updates, but I have not been able to access the Lacie site for some mysterious reason.
    Any advice would be most helpful. Thank you!

    I don't know why but some time ago, when I found this problem, after "The volume...could not be unmounted. All open files and programs on this volume must be closed first." I clicked OK, then I tried to record again and when I clicked for the second time everything was fine.
    It seems the solution is try twice, one after one.
    Hopefully this solve your problem

    Hi iTunes-1,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  The error message you posted indicates a possible firmware update is needed for iTunes for Windows to work with your CD drive.  
    iTunes for Windows: Updating the firmware on your CD or DVD drive - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201852
    Having outdated firmware can cause issues using CDs and DVDs with iTunes for Windows. Firmware is a type of software stored in a chip in hardware that can sometimes be updated.Identifying drives and firmware versions
    To run CD Diagnostics, follow the steps in this document.
    After following the steps to run CD Diagnostics linked above, look at section three to find out more about your optical drive(s).
    Here is an example of what section three might look like:
    In this example there are two drives. Drive E is a Samsung DVD-ROM drive with a model designation of SD-616 that has firmware version F000. Drive F is an NEC drive with a model designation of NR-7900A that has firmware version 1.08.Updating the firmware
    If the optical drive you are using came with your computer, check with the support site for your computer for a firmware update. Typically you will need to go to the support website for the computer maker and click on a "downloads" or "updates" link, and then enter your computer model designation and operating system version to see what updates are available. Then look through the available updates for a firmware update for your optical drive. Download the updater and run it. If you need assistance applying the update, contact the maker of your computer.
    If the optical drive you are using came as a separate part (was not included with a computer), check the support site for the drive maker for a firmware update. Sometimes the manufacturer is not clear in the CD Diagnostics results. In that case, you may just have to search the Internet for the drive model designation. You can usually find out who made the drive by looking through the results of such a search. Once you have identified who made your drive, go to the support website for that company. Look for a "downloads" or "updates" link, and then enter your optical drive model designation. Download the updater and run it. If you need assistance applying the update, contact the maker of the optical drive.Verifying that the firmware was updated
    Run CD Diagnostics again.
    Examine the CD Diagnostics results. The firmware version for the drive should be the new version.

    Also, you mentioned that you have been successful burning a CD with the Windows OS.  Make sure that you have closed all software programs that can access the CD burner so that there isn't a conflict for the drive.   Sometimes chaning the burn speed from "maximum" to 8x can also help in this situation.
    I hope this information helps ...

  • After upgrading to itunes 10.5, and connecting ipad 2, message appears " IPAD cannot be used it requires itunes 10.5 or later. Go to itunes store and download the latest version." I am windows xp user.

    Dear Mr. Sawyer,
                                To my surprise, the version is shown as 10.0.1.22. I will uninstall itunes and try loading the same again. After uninstalling do we need to delete any registry entries for Windows XP.
    Thanks for your response and concern.

  • Lost iTunes Library after upgrading to iTunes 7.7 HELP PLEASE

    I have two issues on hand : after upgrading to iTunes 7.7 I opened iTunes and all of my music was gone except for about 1,000+ songs (3.2 GB) when I originally had about 20GB worth of songs. How can I recover my full library into iTunes ?
    Second issue: when importing new CDs into iTunes 7.7 it only plays a fraction of each song before moving on to another song, whereas iTunes shows that I have the full song imported.
    I really appreciate someone's help here, and does the latest version of iTunes have a bug ??

    Further to my last post, I find that the purchased songs have been retained in the iTunes Library of my Mac Book - is there any way iI can restore them to the iMac?

  • After upgrading to itunes 7.3.1.3 I can't run the backup to dics anymore.

    After upgradeing to itunes 7.3.1.3.1 I can not run the backup any more. Also the CD burning runs very slow.
    The DVD burner run ok with other software.
    After it checks for file to be backed up it kept ejecting the blank DVD and asking for a blank disc.
    I have even replaced the DVD drive with drive from another computer.I also reinstalled ITUNES once-- It ran as a repair during the install.

    I have used this same DVD Burner to backup my list from within iTunes before. I did this back in June just after I purchase 30 songs. I think I was running version 7.1 or 7.2 when the DVD backup worked. If not sopport then why does their diagnostics say DVD/CD Diagnostics. Even so I have the same problem on my other PC with a CD Burner. I think Apple support sound a little like Microsoft. I once had a problem with Windows NT and had to call MS support 5 times before they said their software had a defect and issued a patch.

  • Problems after upgrading to iTunes version 6

    Hello,
    I've been going through the threads a lot since I have had problems after upgrading to iTunes v. 6. It looks like a lot of people have had the same issues, and I have tried some things that were recommended. After I upgraded, iTunes would not open. I tried:
    1. deleting sidb file
    2. doing the msconfig thing suggested in discussion boards
    3. going into safe mode and deleting 4 and 6 letter weird files in DOS - I found 3 that I deleted
    iTunes worked after this -- then I bought a song and it said my computer was not authorized, after I authorized computer (that never happened before), iTunes worked for about 15 more minutes and then closed down abruptly. I haven't been able to open it since.
    I also downloaded Spybot search & destroy and that did not find anything. I am using McAfee, and have scanned for viruses with McAfee and AdAware.
    Now, when I restart my computer, a bunch of windows pop up with Chinese/Japanese looking characters and say that device (I think) was not found. I seem to be able to use everything except iTunes and Quicktime. When I open the Task Manager, iPodService.exe and iTunesHelper.exe and qttask.exe are there, but when I click on Quicktime or iTunes the file flashes in Task Manager and then disappears.
    I'm not sure where to go from here.
    Any help would be apppreciated -- I'd like to be able to open iTunes!

    Hello,
    I used Nickroo's post:
    I was able to get iTunes launched (with the help of Tech Support) in a very unsafe environment. I owe it to those who may need this after me. It will get you going, but you will be extremely vulnerable to internet virus assaults. Please do not use this approach, until you have exhausted every other available solution for your issue in the KB.
    There are three Steps 1) Uninstall 2) Disble and 3) Reinstall.
    UNISTALL Uninstall iTunes using Windows utility Add Remove Program available in Control Panel.
    DISABLE Disable all third party System Services and Startup Items using using MSCONFIG utility as described in Service Document http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538
    RE-INSTALL Re-install iTunes6 + QT7. Launch it under the Selective Startup Option.
    It worked ! You realize among other things at this point you have your Antivirus and Firewall disabled. When I started my computer in the Normal Startup Option, iTunes fails to work again. So I have ahead of me the long and ardous task of ruling out the service that is causing conflict with iTunes6. Then work with the software vendor to arrive at a solution.
    This seems to have worked so far- I haven't started to go through ruling out what made iTunes not work; I also haven't tried to connect my iPod or burn a CD, so we'll see.
