CD player wont accept blank cd's to record

Hi, I'm trying to get my disk burner to accept a blank cd for recording music. After I insert the blank cd it whirls around for awhile the just ejects it without any type of pop up saying why it won't accept it. Yes I'm using correct media type. Plays recorded cd dvd fine just won't burn. Any ideas as to what I may try to correct this issue would be great.
Thanks in advance for any and all help

Reset the NVRAM/PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again.

  • Variation on a theme: recordable DVD media wont load (blank or with data)

    I've read through the forums about problems people are having with the CD/DVD drives, but this one seems unique.
    My MacBook will read:
    commercial DVDs and CDs
    Blank recordable CDs
    Recorded data CDs
    But wont read:
    Blank or recorded DVDs.
    I've tried a number of different brands, and none of them will be recognized. (The same DVDs I've tried in a friend's identical MacBook and his reads them fine).
    I've reset the PRAM and bought a cleaning disc, none of which hand an effect.
    I'm assuming the drive is bad. Just thought I'd check here once before taking my much-beloved MacBook in for service.

    It's beyond obviously bad, my friend It ***** to hear it, but it's true. Don't waste any more time and money, just get it to Apple so that they can replace it. The more they see people coming back with bad drives, the more likely they'll get their act together and fess up and start taking a more consumer-friendly approach (accepting, not denying, helping, not ignoring), which WILL make them RICHER in the end. Guaranteed. A customer who is shown appreciation, stays a customer, even in tough times. So simple a concept.

  • Im trying to update my billing info but apple wont accept my debit card

    I spent 5 dollars on a app on my phone. It didnt ask me for anything about my debit card then. Now one of my apps needs to be updated. It asked me to sign in and update my billing info. I go i change my security code and the experation. I also made sure everything else was correct and it was. When i pressed done it said "your payment method was declined". I checked my bank to see if i have money and i do lol but it wont accept my new debit card and im about to do some stupid **** because im ******

    Debit cards are no longer accepted in the iTunes Store, it seems. The current valid payment methods are listed here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552
    Using a debit card in any online service where it stores your card is a bad idea in any case since if someone gains access to your account in the service, they can quickly drain your bank account. Credit cards limit your liability, as do prepaid iTunes cards. But if you insist, you can contact the iTunes Store and ask if they can help:

  • HT4061 I downloaded  IOS7 on My Iphone5 and put in a 4 digit lock code for find my phone but My phone wont Accept it. It wont let me restore/backup.

    I put in My IMEI code and ICLOUD tells me THAT THE product has been replaced. I am doing This to TRY TO ACTIVATE MY IPHONE5 AS it wont Accept My 4 digit code after downloading IOS7
    So My phone in disabaled, wont let me backup,restore kos FIND MY PHONE IS TURNED ON! How Canon i turn it on if phone is disabaled and computer wont recognise phone kos its locked and if i reboot it it demands i enter code (how Can i, phone,computer wont Accept) TALK ABOUT BANGING MY HEAD AGAINST A WALL, ALL I WANT IS TO USE MY PHONE . APPLE INTRODUCE NEWS SUPER SYSTEM, BETTER THIS, BETTER THAT, HA. IVE SPENT ALL YESTERDAY AND STILL TRYING TO RESOLVE THIS, LET ALONE MAKE A SIMPLE PHONE CALL!
    HELP ME SOMEONE PLEASE ,PLEASE

    You can't restore a backup to a phone that is running a version of iOS earlier than the version running when the backup was made.  Normaly this situation occurs when replacing a phone, and the eplacement OS is not up to date.  The fix is to update the replacement phone, then restore from the backup.
    You could try an older backup made with iOS6.
    Anyway, why do you need all your info on it while the screen is being fixed?

  • New macbook pro wont accept password

    I moved everything over from my i5 MBP to a new i7 via utilities migration assistant. However the new macbook pro wont accept my password, nor will it recognise the other user account passwords. Works fine on the i5.
    In Disc Utilities, change password asks me to select an image, but does not light up "change" when I select user.
    Any ideas?

    Is you new MBP the 2010 model or is it a newer model running Mountain Lion?
    If it's a newer model running ML, you can simply boot into your Recovery partition (hold down the Command and R keys whilst booting) and when you get to the Recovery window, select Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type
    resetpassword
    and hit Return. A small app will open that will allow you to change the password for the user that you select. Then just reboot and use the new password.
    If, indeed, you're running 10.6.4, you'll need the installation disc to use the Reset password utility.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • Can I install the online version rather than using my dvd? it successfully installed (up to a point) that way, it just wont accept my serial number for some reason. my dvd isnt working properly.

    Can I install the online version rather than using my dvd? it successfully installed (up to a point) that way, it just wont accept my serial number for some reason. my dvd isnt working properly.

    If it gets far enough to reject your serial number, it won't help to download it. It must have installed ok.
    What is the message you get (DON'T tell us the serial number!!)?
    Does it mention a "qualifying product" by any chance?

  • When turming on my ipad it comes up with passcode, which when i put it in it wont accept it. i have tryed switching of and back on and it makes no differense. the only thing i done was i put voiceover on and then tryed to switch it off and this happened.

    when turning my ipad on it comes up with passcode, when i try to enter it it wont accept. so i cannot get any further. the only thing i did was i was just messing and i turned on voiceover, then i tryed to turn it of and it wouldnt let me. i have tryed turning the ipad of and then turning it back on and that didnt work either. please help ....

    It's hard to see exactly how just turning voiceover on would have created a passcode, but regardless of that ... if you can't get it sorted so that you can enter whatever the code is, you're going to have to resort to Restoring the iPad from the computer it was last sync'ed to.

  • CS6 Products requiring serial key suddenly after being used fine since luanch? Wont accept my key (pasted from my adobe account). Reverted to trial. Please help!

    I've had the CS6 Master collection since it was released and havent had any problems with it until today. It is asking me for my serial key (for the first time since its been installed) and says the one I am providing is invalid. What is happening here? I'm giving it the key that is saved in my adobeID and is registered etc. I almost wasnt able to complete some work except that it reverted to a 30 day trial, which isnt much better because I will just need to confront this problem again in 30 days. Does anyone know why it wont accept my key? I have it on a second computer and it is doing the same thing. Both worked fine yesterday. I really wanted to talk to someone, but adobe makes that near impossible.

    Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security, (including anti-phishing and redirects) (Full information about Open DNS is here: http://www.opendns.com/home/nobloat ) and further independent information can be read here:

    Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:

    208.67.220.220
    (You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
    Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:

  • My iTunes wont accept half my songs?

    Recently I got a new computer and did not back up my itunes, ive been trying to put all of my songs onto my new itunes from my iphone by using an extracting tool. i managed to obtain all of the music from my iphone which i was planning to put onto my new itunes, i saved all of the songs from my iphone to my computer then located them through itunes and loaded them onto itunes, the only problem is that my itunes wont accept half of my songs, ive got all the songs i want on my computer but half of them on itunes? can somebody help and tell me how to get all of my songs from my computer to itunes?

    Are the video files in a compatible format. iTunes handles .mov, .mp4 and .m4v. For anything else there are likely to be third party players.
