CD Burning error sometimes 4280 sometimes 4261

Hiya, I've recently started getting problems burning, it'll start, check the playlist, then say it's starting to write, and then it'll just cancel and eject the disc
Here's the diagnostics

I'm having exactly the same problem with 4450 & 4850 errors, using compatible hardware and several different brands of blank media. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and made sure my drive's drivers are current. It seems that a number of users are experiencing the same problem, and I'm anxious to see an explanation and solution posted.

Thank you. This has worked, but I don't know why as it isn't anything I didn't do the last time. What a difference a day makes.
Once again, thank you for taking the time to help.

Can't burn error code 4280

I haven't been able to burn cds ever since the new update from ITunes. I have tried troubleshooting using steps from the support on this website. However, that was primarily for a Sony drive. I happen to have an Acer 5100-3583 Model with a MATSHITA DVD-RAM UJ-8505. I hate not being able to burn cds, please help if you can.

the perfect solution it to get a mac
just joking... have you tried burning cds in other programs? It could be the driver...

Burn error 4280-help toonz? anyone?

I'm getting so fed up with iTunes! I can't get any music onto cds. I am not buying any more from iTunes....but the problem is I still need to get the stuff I've purchased onto a cd...
I cleared up the old 2122 problem by getting a whole new burner....went from an APOEN to a LITE-ON....
now I've got ANOTHER burn failure....this is absolutely ridiculous..it can't all be me can it?
so...I've been getting the burn error 4280 on all burns...no exceptions. And yes, I've followed what everyone has been saying about updating drivers, BIOS etc...I've used different brands of media and it's DMA over PIo
anything else you can think of? here's my diagnostics....

http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300448-Heres a start.
This happens on certain PC's. I dont know if you care to know the ins and outs of why this sometimes happens, but here is why and how to fix it. an application (such as Roxio, Nero, iTunes, etc.) is installing a driver file (as a .SYS) or replacing a working driver file that is referenced within your registry. For some folks, the replaced driver is still referenced by either an UpperFilterCheck or a LowerFilterCheck, and the device manager is actually seeking out that file that, well... no longer exists. Or, when you try and uninstall the application (iTunes is the frequent transgressor) everything is removed, including the related driver files, but the registry isn't altered... so the device manager continues to try and locate that driver file... which no longer exists.
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.... poof!... your drives should be back to normal.
Let me know how it goes.
Good Luck,
Rachyl

hmmm. i went to Toshiba to check for any available updates for your Satellite ... but they split out the downloads by subcategories for the A105, and so i'm not sure what your precise model is.
here's a link through to their technical support ... if you plug in the precise model number, are there any available updates for your particular type of A105?

Burning Error 4280

Hey, i've been here before in December with close to the same problem (the error then was different). This time my error number has changed to 4280 and when I attempt to burn a CD, it will try to burn the first song and quit after about 5-10 seconds. I've updated the firmware for my computer, have the latest verions of itunes, used this article (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300403)and I even tried the hotfix for windows xp service pack 2. Nothing is working and i'm stumped.
(I've also searched for other threads concerning this and nothing in them seems relevant to my problem and/or cd drive)

help..please?

Last time my error was 4450 and your last piece of advice was this:
"LVanHall,
I'll assume you've tried the other tricks of lowering your burn speed and trying other brands / speeds / types of media.
So, let's try the lower filter trick to see if that has any effect.
On the start menu, click on "run". in the space it provides enter "regedit" without the quotes. This will open the registry editor.
Find the heading HKEYLOCALMACHINE. Click on it.
Find the heading SYSTEM inside it. Click on it.
Find the heading CurrentControlSet. Click
Find the heading Control. Click
Find the heading Class. Click
Find the heading that begins {4D36E965- Click
Go up to the Registry menu and select "Export Registry File... command. Make sure the "Selected Branch" radio button is checked and save that off somewhere that you can find it.
Delete the key named LowerFilter.
Then reboot, and see what iTunes does.
To get the system back to its previous state. Run Regedit again and use the Registry menu -> Import Registry File... command and select the file that you saved off in the first section."
And I just checked what you asked and they are already set to "DMA, if available", but I do not have a seconadry IDE channel, unless it goes by another name because I have a primary and one that says Intel(R) 82801FB/FBM Ultra ATA Storage Controllers - 266F
thanks again for all this help.

Burning error 4280 and 4450

Hello!
So I've read all the helpful answers about this, and have tried every fix, but nothing works. Every discussion thread is super old and I wonder if there is anything more up-to-date?
This registry fix... in this thread...last post.... MIGHT be my problem, (and I suspect that it is) but the directions are confusing and don't match my computer's registery or driver details.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/2904875#2904875
If someone can interpret these a little clearer or to match my particular computer it might be helpful. I can provide more info on this if needed.
Some information:
I have a Toshiba laptop with a MATSHITA DVD RAM UJ 850S driver.
(I DO NOT have a Sony driver)
I have the 4280 error. I ALSO have the 4450 error.
It happens every time I burn no matter what brand of disc Im using or speed Im burning at.
Either it will burn a few songs and then cancel, or it will cancel before it starts to burn.
I can burn DVDs with my DVD copying software.
I CANNOT burn CDs with Windows Media Player or Real Player or anything else.
There are no needed updates to my driver. The computer tells me that everything is up-to-date.
I have had this problem for over a year and a half and have not found a fix yet.
Here is the diagnostic and thank you very much for taking the time to help me!

HT201210 I tried to update my iPad 2 with the iOS 6.0. Now I am stuck in restore mode and keep getting an unkown error 3014 and sometimes -1. What in the world can I do?

I tried to update my iPad 2 with the iOS 6.0. Now I am stuck in restore mode. I get "unknown" errors 3014 and sometimes -1. Any ideas?

Try a hard reset: hold the power and home buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears.

Attempt to burn a disc failed. An unknown error occurred (4280).

I put a blank CD in. I open iTunes. I click on a play list and attempt to burn. It checks the play list like everything is fine and seems like it begins to burn the first track. Then after a few seconds it says *_canceling disc_*. It ejects the CD and an error message comes up: "_*The attempt to burn a disc failed. An unknown error occurred (4280).*_" I thought that the new update (7.6.2) might include a fix for this. No such luck of course! Have had this problem for awhile and have researched it on the internet. I am not the only one with this problem and people have been posting about this error since 2005! CDs burn fine and Media player. What's the deal? I thought Mac was supposed to be superior to Windows? I have a Slimtype DVDRW SSM-8515S drive. I have tried HP's solutions, lower burn speed, clicking this and that, ect. Please help. This problem makes me wish I didn't have an iPod. The only reason I started using iTunes was because of the iPod. +Not happy with this or Mac at all+. I don't care how cool their commercials are!
P.S. Have tried all of the suggestions from the following site:

These suggestions have worked for some people, but not me. Maybe they will help others who are experiencing the same unfortunate problems.

CD burn had error code 4280, HELP!!!

I installed the latest version of iTunes, but as many other postings I've read, I have not been able to successfully burn a CD with iTunes since the installation. Every time I get the message, "The attempt to burn a disc failed. An unknown error occurred (4280)." I have used Device Manager in the Control Panel to try and update the driver for the CD-ROM, but Windows says it cannot find a better driver than the one I have installed. I also ran CD Diagnostics in the iTunes help menu and the text is attached below:

Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.

Yet another CD burn error (4280)

It seems that the 4280 problem is fairly common. In my case, ever since Itunes was updated, I've had problems with trying to burn CDs. It would always stop and then say "unknown error-4280". I tried solutions that others have used, but it doesn't seem to work. I can rip CDs just fine, I just can't seem to burn any anymore and before Itunes was upgraded, I was able to burn CDs just fine.
Here are my diagnostics:

Error code 4280 when I attempt to burn cd

Why do I get error code 4280 when I try to burn c cd from my burn list and how can I accomplish my task?!

Joe,
Check out these links: OS X Mountain Lion: If an error message appears while you’re burning a CD or DVD
and OS X Mountain Lion: If you can’t eject a disk
But, you'd better ask this question again in the forum for your mac. I don't know which type of Mac you have. Pick the link from this list.

Burning Error 4280 - Toonz Please Help!!!

I installed the latest version of iTunes, but as many other postings I've read, I have not been able to successfully burn a CD with iTunes since the installation. Every time I get the message, "The attempt to burn a disc failed. An unknown error occurred (4280)." I have used Device Manager in the Control Panel to try and update the driver for the CD-ROM, but Windows says it cannot find a better driver than the one I have installed. I also ran CD Diagnostics in the iTunes help menu and the text is attached below:

I notice your post has the same bus address as what I talk about here.
My desktop computer burns from iTunes perfect in version 4.7.0.42 and 5.0.1.4. When I go to 6.x I can't do anything. Go to oldapps.com if you want an older version.
I CAN BURN on my laptop with new version. It is a toshiba sat M45-S331 with a matshita dvd-ram drive.
My PC is a dell with a teac dvd+rw dv-w58e, rev D.0n
Did find something sad and while I don't know much about computer programming here is my take. I think it has nothing to do with the drive, my drive works perfect and as evidence being able to burn in older generation iTunes.
I think in the new version, at least as far as I can tell, my bus address in my laptop for my cd drive is [0,0] but on my desktop the bus address is [1,0] for my burn drive.
I think some programmer at Apple took out ability to recognize two seperate bus addresses or to recognize address [1,0]
Opinions? I'm going to research how to change bus address on my drives and if can figure out will get back here. Or if someone else can, please replay to me by e-mail. You can send it to the following removing upper case letters:

Thanks and good luck
