"Disk Burner Not Found..." My turn -

Or, "When does the Help Reply 72 hour response start?"
First of all, thank you, and you know who you are, for the fix to the Burner Not Found issue. This little rant is simply to help others who will have the same problem as I.
I’m brand new to iPods and the like, and it was the Nano that got me hooked – very impressive. I also was very impressed with iTunes too.
After I imported all my CD’s I decided to burn backup some DVD’s – mostly ‘cause I could. And I was able to, well at least three of them. Then, admittedly for reasons I don’t recall, I did a firmware update for my DVD (and yes, I got the right one).
That’s when iTunes started to give me the “Disk Burner or Software Not Found” error. What seemed odd to me was that I could still Import a CD, in the Preferences - Advanced - Burning tab, the disk burner iTunes couldn’t find was listed. And, with other software, burning a disk worked just fine.
I did as many as you did, I removed iTunes (saving my music under a different name, and location), reinstalled iTunes with the same results.
Finally, I found you good people, and read the fix, well – part of the fix. I tried putting my burner in the first Asus grouping I found the in gcdoem.cfg – that didn’t work, so I did as someone else here did, I put it in every grouping I found that already had an Asus burner listed – which worked.
So, thank you.
Oh, then the funny part. When I restarted iTunes, I got this message – “Could not find your preferred Disk Burner. Ok to use E: ASUS DRW-1608P (ATAE:) instead?”
Ah, my “preferred” burner? – that would be the only one I have…
Phat
p.s. Could someone explain to me, why in the config file, almost every grouping of burners calls the same dll?
Weird.

Hey Phat
This seems to be the same problem I've got and exactly the same burner. But when I add the entries to gcdoem.cfg I still have the same problem. Could you show me exactly the entries you added just incase I've done it wrong.

  • Disk Burner Not Found

    When I try to burn disks on iTunes, I recieve the message "Disk Burner or software not found..." I have installed the latest version of iTunes.
    Any suggestions on what I should do?
    Dell   Windows XP  

    I also have the same issue, however, I am Running the release Version of Vista x64.
    here's my hardware info:

    ATI All In Wonder 2006
    I also have Nero Ulta 7 Installed, and it sees both RW drives and works fine with them.
    Here's my diagnostics page (I realize Vista x64 may be the main reason, my question is how long before an official Vista ready version of iTunes will be available, and then when will an x64 official version be available?)

    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.

  • Disc Burner Not Found Windows Vista

    Im getting disc burner not found or burning software not found with iTunes 7.2 using Windows Vista x64
    It worked fine in Windows XP!
    I use a Sony DRU-810A with latest 1.0f firmware.
    Please fix this Apple this is annoying, it worked in XP!

    Im getting disc burner not found or burning software not found with iTunes 7.2 using Windows Vista x64
    the x64 thing may be the key to this.
    check your DVD/CD diagnostics. (in iTunes, go "help > run diagnostics" and select DVD/CD diagnostics.) do you see error 2380 showing up next to the CD or DVD drives in the diagnostics?
    if so, try reinstalling the 64-bit version of the GEAR drivers that iTunes uses for importing and burning. the GEAR drivers are available from the following page. (note that there are two different versions of the 64-bit drivers, so be sure to get the version that matches your hardware):

  • Disk recording not found...

    im running itunes 8.0 and windows vista. I was trying to back up my library today and i got the message "Disk recording not found..." is there anyway i can fix this?

    Scooter60201,
    Does repairing iTunes resolve the issue?
    To do so, close iTunes and navigate to the Control Panel >Programs and Features / Uninstall a program, select iTunes and choose "Change" and then choose "Repair".
    Hope this helps,

    Hi cam725,
    First off, do you have the latest version of iTunes (7.3.1.3) installed on your computer?
    To download the latest version, go to this page:
    Download iTunes - 7.3.1.3
    If that doesn't help, then let's see if this is being caused by digital signing issues on your PC. Check out this article for details:

  • Burner not Found?

    Hmm. My internal burner has worked fine in past but today i get a "burner not found" error in all of my burning softwares. I clearly have one, but it is not recognized today. any ideas why?
    PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-112D:
    Firmware Revision: BC14

    Burn Support: Yes (Apple Shipping Drive)
    Cache: 0 KB
    Reads DVD: Yes
    CD-Write: -R, -RW

    Do you cut the power to your machine overnight (not just shut it down)? If this recurs, I'd try two things:
    Reset the parameter ram 4 times in a row.
    If that doesn't fix it, then check the battery.

  • DVD Burner not found

    I have recently installed a new DVD burner on my PC however when I tried to burn a DVD from Premier Elements it states that the burner is not found.
    I have however been able to burn a disc when using AVCHD as it finds the burner.
    The drop down for the find burner location is alos blank and not letting me find the drive.
    Does anyone have any suggestions as top what I can do to get the dvd recognised. 

    endfates
    This is now the 4th old post (this time only 1 year old instead of 3 to 4 like the others) in which you are sharing the same generalized report on what worked for you with a burner recognition problem. In each of your other threads that I am finding, I am asking for the following same supplemental information from you, information which I feel is important to your shared content. So, I repeat
    endfates
    What version of Premiere Elements are you working with and on what computer operating system is it running?
    With what type of burner are you working where you had this burner not recognized issue - Blu-ray/DVD/CD or just DVD/CD?
    What specific video codecs did you find it necessary to install beyond what was provided for by the program, QuickTime, Windows Media Player,
    and the usual assortment of players?
    Besides "burner not recognized", did you have any "media not present" issues as well?
    This information would be important since there is a 4 year gap between since the last entry in this thread (2010) and your post in this thread
    tonight (2014).
    Thank you.
    ATR
    Again, I point out that there are negative as well as positive aspects to the try this and try that "codecs". That is why I feel the requested information is important to the serial generalized messages that you are posting one after the other tonight in 1 to 4 year old threads.

  • TS1436 when i start i tunes it states registry missing files to inport export cd and when i try to burn a cd it states disc burning not found i re installed itunes still the same

    When i start i tunes i get a message that states missing registry files for import and export files re install itunes so i did same thing and when i try to burn cd's a get "disc recording not found"

    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.)

  • "Cannot sync ; required disk cannot not found"

    haha this is now the 2nd shuffle I have plugged into my computer and can no longer load any songs onto it and have deleted existing songs on 1. (1 being brand new and one being the shuffle I have always used with this computer). I go to transfer 1 song (I have even tried autofill) and it pauses for the longest time and then gives me the error "The Ipod "name" cannot be synced. The required disk cannot be found". Anyone know what this "disk" happens to be?? I have yet to try with my Ipod mini in fear that I will erase all the songs off of there as well. Ive done the 5R's and all that mess...but Im hoping someone here has had a similar problem?
    thanks!!

  • Cannot burn CDs. "Disk recording not found."

    I updated itunes and now it will not burn CDs for me. I have no other software that would interfere with this. I attempted to uninstall and install GEARS drivers after some google searchs and it did nothing. Might not have done that right though. It says I have no drivers when i run diagnostics. Any help would be appriciated.

    That is the key statement out of the whole error message you posted.
    It looks like it's having trouble loading the CD/DVD drives.  Try doing a repair install as it notes there, and also check to see what other burning software you have installed on your system as some of it can conflict with iTunes.  You may need to uninstall the other CD Burning software.
