CD Revolution for Burning CDs/Dvds

I don't like using disc utility, I follow the directions and it never works correctly to copy a cd. Seems like too much work. So I found CD Revolution, I downloaded the "Trial" version and it won't let me try it. The "Buy Now" thing pops up when the program opens and won't go away. I can't try out the software. Any suggestions? Are they just making you buy it right away now???

irvineswimgirl,
What kind of "CD" are you trying to burn? Disk Utility is great for burning data CDs and DVDs, but it cannot copy audio CDs. If that's what you're trying to copy, there's your problem.
The tool to use in making backup copies of audio CDs is iTunes. Import the tracks from an audio CD into iTunes, place those tracks in a "Playlist," then burn the Playlist to a new, blank CD. Voila!

Itunes driver's registry settings for burning CDs/DVDs are missing,

Links provided by the Apple support staff thus far

are generic and do not address the problem I've described in numerous posts - I have read and implemented these suggestions with out success. When launched, itunes complains that "the registry settings used by itunes drivers for importing and burning CDs/DVDs are missing" is missing CD drivers. When I acknowledge the problem and try to burn CDs from itunes the error message "disk recording is not found" is received.
Here are the diagnostics:

If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.
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.

Failed loading CD / DVD drives, error -43. Try doing a repair install on iTunes from the "Add or Remove Programs" control panel.
The last failed audio CD burn had error code -128(0xffffff80). It happened on drive F: PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-104 on CDR media at speed 0X.
The CD burner works on other programs! Problem occurred with upgrade to latest version of itunes.
1. Installed of the latest gear drivers
2. Upgraded burner firmware
3. Reloaded/repaired itunes on numerous occasions
4. Using latest latest Nero software from an Admin account and launched program to ensure Nero Burner rights are installed.
5. Performed registry hacks & removed values of upper/lower filters as prescribed (no joy).
There are NUMEROUS people having this problem with no assistance; reference http://discussions.apple.com/myposts.jspa

Yes, your green bookmarked article really solved my question.
Thank you very much!

Registry settings for burning CDs/DVDs missing when Itunes installed

I have recently had to reinstall ITunes following a computer crash. I am unable to burn to CD - when I start up ITunes I am told that the "registry settings are missing" and am told to reinstall, which I have done without success. I have not loaded any other CD/DVD burning software, and can burn CDs using other programmes. Any ideas? Thank you.

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

Drivers for burning CDs

Help needed!
A message that registry settings for Drivers for importing & burning CDs & DVDs is missing appears when opening iTunes.
As advised by the error message I re-installed V 10.6.1.7 (from fresh download) but still get the same message.
iTunes does read CDs but will not burn one.
Ran diagnostics for CD/DVD drive tests. Not sure how to attach them to this question.
Thanks

Did a clean install after backing up to TC... Took it to apple replaced HD even though it appeared ok, they checked all hardware and I ran techtool pro daily ever since. Last week software update had several updates avail. Office for mac being one of them.. I updated and have never booted since.. . I swear to never ever use another Microsoft product as long as I live if I can just fix this once more... Help me please

I used to be able to print labels for burned CDs with the cover being the playlist name and the other side the song titles...now the titles print out compacted, overlapping each other and illegible. I thought it was the printer but it happened w/1 other printer as well, which I used before for this exact thing w/no problem.

Try cleaning the print head with rubbing alcohol wipe, then replace your print head. Keep pushing the Ok.

Every time I open Itunes or plug in my Ipod or Ipad I get an error message that the registery settings for burning cds and dvds are missing and to reinstall Itunes. i've done this several times but the message won't go away.

Every time I plug my Ipod Nano or Ipad 2 into my computer I get the same error message. It says that registery settings are missing for importing burning cds and dvds due ot other burning software and to untinstall itunes and reinstall Itunes. I've done this several times and I'm not having any trouble importing cds at all and I can't make the message go away. It always comes up before Itunes will open.

Missing registry entries for burning CDs

I used iTunes to burn soe playlists. This worked well. However, I also installed Nero Exprss after that. After this when I brought up iTunes it gave the message "MIssing registry entries - cannot import or burn CDs or DVDs - reinstall iTunes" Though I was still able to import CDs after that, I cannot burn CDs. The error does not go away even after re-installing iTunes several times (either usiing an Update or after unistalling and doing a fresh install).
How can I fix this problem ?

ITunes Drivers for Burning CDs

I recently began receiving the message, "iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs cannot be found. Please reinstall iTunes." I reinstalled iTunes from my factory disc and the message still appears. I then copied my music library to another directory, and reinstalled iTunes and I'm still getting the same message. Additionally, when I tried to create a playlist from music I had downloaded from a CD, I get another message, "The song_ could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" Any suggestions on what might be causing these messages? I'm not very tech-savvy so would appreciate any help!

hiya!
(i'm just replying about the drivers message.)
"iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs cannot be found. Please reinstall iTunes."
that sort of message is often caused by a device filters conflict in your registry.
if the reinstall of the latest version that pac_80 recommends (it's a good idea) doesn't seem to help matters, there's some useful (somewhat advanced) techniques for tracking down the conflicts given here:

.. but if you'd prefer to try some quicker and dirtier techniques, post back and we can run through those too.

Registry used by itunesdrivers for burning CDs are missing - help!

Hello All.
I have just upgraded my itunes from version 6 to the latest, and now it cannot see audio CDs or burn a CD. Everytime I start it up I get this message:
+Warning! The registry used by theitunesdrivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall itunes.+
If it helps, I have followed the information is this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5105496&#5105496
...but it still doesn't work. I also checked out this thread on Tech Support guy (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5105496&#5105496) but nothing there works either (although I haven't done the 'Delete SPTD.SYS from the C:\Windows\System32\Drivers folder.' etc instructions as I don't think I have daemon tools on this PC, unless they snuck in the back door somewhere). I also don't have other 'cd-burning software' - the PC came with a programme called Record Now, but there hasn't been a problem with that before.
I'm not that technical, and don't know why nothing seems to work now. I would be very grateful if anyone can offer some advice, or can point me in the direction of a thread on here that might shed further light on this mystery. I have reinstalled, restarted, uninstalled, rebooted - everything I can think of!
Thank you so much in advance,
Jayne

Hello again,
Thank you for posting those links. This is now solved, and I am so happy!
Basically I had to manually delete the gear files from the registry and then reinstall with the latest. Both of these instructions can be found via the links above, should anyone else come to this forum with the same issue. The instructions were clear, even to a novice like me.
Thanks again, Polydorus, for all your help.
