Error 4450 when burning a disc.

Does anyone know what this means? I've never received this error before. I'm using Maxell discs, in case anyone needs to know.

  • Error 4450 when burning

    Help! I am using an HP Pavillion ze5300 and I just started to get an error 4450 when attempting to burn CD's after reinstalling my OS. I can't find any updates that I missed!
    Heres my diagnostic:
    Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (Build 2600)
    Hewlett-Packard Pavilion ze5300 (DC965A)
    iTunes 7.0.2.16
    CD Driver 2.0.6.1
    CD Driver DLL 2.0.6.1
    UpperFilters: GEARAspiWDM (2.0.6.1),
    Video Driver: RADEON IGP 345M\RADEON IGP 345M
    IDE\DiskHITACHIDK23EA-60______________________00K2A0A2, Bus Type ATA, Bus Address [0,0]
    IDE\CdRomHL-DT-STRW/DVD_GCC-4240N_______________0111___, Bus Type ATA, Bus Address [0,0]
    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.
    Current user is an administrator.
    D: HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4240N, Rev 0111
    Drive is empty.
    The last failed audio CD burn had error code 4450(0x00001162). It happened on drive D: HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4240N on CDR media at speed 16X.

    hmmm. a search at HP on ze5300 turns up a lot of different models:
    Pavilion ze5300
    ... so i'm thinking ze5300 may be your series number rather than your model number.
    what is the model number on your wee lass? the following HP document may be of some help with determining that:

  • Error message when burning a disc of photos

    I was trying to burn a disc of a large number of photos - around 400, and I got this error message:  "The burn to the HL-DT-ST DVDRW GS23N drive failed. The disc drive didn’t respond properly and can’t recover or retry."  I did a sample burn of about 5 or 6 photos and it worked fine, but this large project failed.  I have a total of 1200 pictures I'm trying to burn.  Any advice?  Thanks for your help.  I have spent hours trying to get this project done.  It looks like it is in the "preparing to burn" stage for 10 or so minutes, then when it gets ready to burn, I get the failure message.  Thanks again!

    Take your choice:
    Bad discs
    Dust bunnies in drive blocking laser
    Drive failing
    Crashed/corrupt firmware controlling drive
    Crashed system component
    Try different brand of discs and/or slower burn speed
    You don't say anything about your model computer.  With some you can reset software.  Of course sometimes restarting a computer can help.

  • Error messages when burning to discs.

    I have one of the original Macminis with only 256 Mb Ram, running 10.4.11 and have been very content with it until recently. When trying to burn Slideshows to disc from iDVD, or backing up to disc from iTunes or iPhoto I find it commences the operation, then ejects the disc with the following message "Burn Failed. The burn to the Matshita DVD-R Uj-835F drive failed. The device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media." Instinctively I feel this means that the laser in the Superdrive is kaput. Is this a correct assumption, and is there anything I can do about it without sending off the Service Centres?
    Grateful for all help.

    The first possibility to consider before a serious hardware failure in the drive is that the lens in dirty - this can create the error message you see. Given the mini seems a little prone to the ingress of small particles of debris I would therefore suggest you try an inexpensive lens cleaner.
    If it turns out the drive truly is defective, my recommendation would not be to send it off for repair, but simply replace the drive with a Firewire external DVD burner. That would generally be of very similar cost (or actually less) than a repair, but provide you with a higher performance unit which is less fussy on media.

  • Error message when burning dvd

    I have a flat panel 17" iMac with a superdrive. I have recently tried to back-up data onto a dvd. When I hit the burn button I soon get an error message. When I eject the dvd and put it back in to play nothing happens and the dvd is ejected only when I open iTunes. On a third and forth attempt the dvd gets spit out without any burn attempt.
    Strangely, the first dvd I put in that was not readable on my machine I put in a Windows machine, which appears to read the dvd and I see the folders that I tried to burn, but obviously cannot open the files because it is a Windows machine.
    I have read the discussions and dvd issues seem to be rife. I thought I had applecare but it appears it hasn't been registered and this issue is being addressed with apple. So I have not managed as yet to get any apple support.
    Can anyone shed any light on my problem?
    Thanks
    PS: The reason for the back-ups is that I am soon going to upgrade to Tiger. I see from discussions that issues about dvds are rife.

    I didn't note the message I'm afraid. However I have just tried to burn a dvd again and got the message 'An error occurred while burning the disc. This disc cannot be used.' I have tried the burn with two different dvds and I don't think the discs are the wrong ones. One was DVD-RW and the other was DVD-R. I recall that on another occasion there was an error number, which might have been 303, but I can't be sure of that figure.
    Whilst on burning to disc, I want to make an image of a folder. I follow the instructions of navigating to the folder and click on it but the resulting image is only of the folder and not its contents. Am I doing something wrong here too?
    Thanks.

  • An error occurred while burning the disc.

    I tried to burn some stuff onto a DVD today with my PowerBook. Here's the info on the burner:
    MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-845E:
    Manufacturer: MATSHITA
    Model: MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-845E
    Revision: DMP2
    Serial Number:
    Drive Type: CD-RW/DVD-RW
    Disc Burning: Apple Supported/Shipped
    Removable Media: Yes
    Detachable Drive: No
    I bought some DVD's on sale at Radio Shack, and when I tried to burn a movie and a few photos onto a disc, the progress bar showed it starting to burn, then it stopped and I got this message:
    "An error occurred while burning the disc. This disc cannot be used."
    A little research here at the Apple forum brought me to this site:
    http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm
    And after downloading a little program called DVD Media Inspector, I was able to classify the DVD's I had bought as:
    "4TH CLASS MEDIA:
    Pathetic garbage media, landfill material, about 0-50% success rate...."
    OK, off to Mega Lo Mart, where I bought some nice, expensive Maxell DVD's.
    Media Inspector doesn't see my fancy new DVD's. When I try to burn stuff using the Finder, I get the same result as before.
    Getting desperate at that point, I located and downloaded updated firmware for my model of Matshita superdrive. I'm not sure what firmware is, and there was a free range one and a standard one, so I went for the standard one. There were dire warnings in the readme file about "flashing" a superdrive being on the same risk level as open heart surgery. I flashed my superdrive. (You can say that here, and it's not dirty.)
    I also tried burning using iDVD, and after much preparation, it started to burn, then spit out the DVD. I tried three of the landfill DVD's and two of the Maxell ones. I'm out of things to try. Any ideas?
    I have never tried burning DVD's before. Am I doing something wrong?

    I tried again using iDVD's One-Step DVD making feature. It will let you make a one step from a movie file, and I had a .dv version of the movie I want to burn.
    It encoded video for a while, encoded audio for a little while, then started to burn. The superdrive made some noises, then the DVD was ejected and I got an error message saying:
    "Burning Finished
    Errors were found during the burning process"
    I hit OK (though it really wasn't OK) and got another error message box. This one said:
    "Multiplexer error
    (some message about multiplexing problem)"
    The message didn't make sense to me, and I was unable to remember it. What's a multiplexer? I would have guessed an avid movie-goer, but somehow I think that is not it.

  • Photo's out order when burned to disc

    Hi, my photo's are in numbered order in the library but when burned to disc are all random,
    they have been edited from 3 cards and saved as a smart colllection, how can I get them
    to burn in order as library shows them !! thanks steve

    You use the Export Dialog by clicking on <Export> bottom - left in the Library Module. See Screen shot:
    This will open the Export Dialog. The second section from the top is <File Naming>. Click on the small triangle, see screen shot:
    And select <Edit> from the list.
    This will bring up the <File name Editor> where you can specify various parameters for renaming. i would suggest that you add sequential numbers in front of the file name to preserve the order of images. In the screen shot below I have selected a sequential number that will go from 1  to 10000 plus the existing file name.
    Then click <Done> and <OK> and export your images to a location of your choice.
    Since you are a newbie to Lr it would be good if you would watch some of the video tutorials on Adobe's website. Lr is a complex program and without the tutorials you will make mistakes and get frustrated. The links for the video tutorials are on the main page of this forum, to the right where it says <getting Started with Lightroom 4>.
    Go to this link http://tv.adobe.com/show/learn-lightroom-4/ and at the bottom you will find specific tutorials for exporting.
