Error code on burning

I often have an error code (is periodic - say 60%) when burning a CD from iTunes when at the end of a burn the program stalls and after about 2 or 3 minutes iTunes says cancelling burn .... then a pop up appears saying burn failed - unknown error (4200).
The disc ejects.
I have noticed in most cases when reinserting the disc, it is recognised and the tracks are listed and plays, so no error has actually occured and the CD works OK.
Sometimes the burn fails before or just after the burn commences... as this does not happen all the time, any ideas on what may have caused this error.

This is happening to me as well. But I'm pretty sure it is because I burned too many CDs at once. Before, using iTunes, I could burn 50 CDs in a day, non-stop. But once I started using iTunes 7, it has stopped working.
I'm not sure if it's iTunes or my CD Burner, but I constantly get errors 4000 and 4280 when using iTunes, and any CDs I try to burn using Nero will not work either.

I get an error code when burning a movie to DVD

I use Premiere Elements 10 in my iMac OS lion vers. 10.7.2
I have 250 Gb free on my hard disc. The movie I try to burn is between 3-4 Gb
When starting to burn my movie to a DVD the following is seen in order on the screen:
Encoding Menu 2 of 2
Computing Media
Burning disks 1 of 1
and then it burns (at the end pretty quickly) to 99% and stay there.
I get an error code:
Internal software error: /Users/labuser/premiere/elements/molecules/pre10-bullseye/molecule-17/External/AuthorScri pt/Source/DVDCreator/FormatLib/Ma.....
When I look on the DVD, it looks like nothing has been burnt to the DVD.
What can be wrong?

I still have trouble with burning my movies to DVD.
Have tried the following:
Found that I had "-" in many of my file names (clips). I removed them from the file names, but this had no effect.
I moved my entire project folder to a shorter path folder. This had no effect.
I have not managed to find blank DVDs on sale here in Gothenburg, but will try to buy them online.
I have four movies that I want to burn on DVD discs.
Have succeeded in burning two of them.
I've tried to find what distinguishes between the two that are OK and the two that I have not succeeded with. They are all at about the same size, about 27-29 minutes long.
The clips are .m2ts and .mts files.
In one of the movies that are OK, all the clips are .m2ts files. In the second movie (that is OK), most of the clips are .m2ts files, but also there are .mts files.
In the other two movies that are not OK, it's a mix of .m2ts and .mts files.
When I try to burn the two movies which failed, I get the same course as I showed earlier (with an error code).
I must admit that I was wrong when I previously wrote that I could burn all the movies to my hard drive. The ones I can not burn to DVD, I can not burn to my hard drive.

Error code 0x8002006e burn issue

Hi, I have read all the threads on this issue and no answer.
Apparently this is happening a lot. I have burned one cd-r that worked on my new mac pro, (month old) and now I cannot burn anymore without the error code 0x8002006e unable to verify. I can although reinsert the disk and it will read and can open random files, but who trusts a disk with errors??
I have shut down all programs to burn the disk and have restarted my finder.
I've used Sony CD-R's and Memorex DVD-R which both worked fine on Tiger on my other computer,my pc dell laptop and my external duplicator.
Running 10.5.2 all updated installed.
I have wasted about 7 cd-r / dvd-r both. I have the standard superdrive from apple, and I have installed a pioneer from an old imac g4, (apple techs said it was compatible), and received the error in both drives. I can burn via my external lightscribe duplicator and it works great.
Apple doesn't reopen until Monday and hopefully it's an issue that can be resolved now.
Any suggestions would be wonderful!!! Unfortunately the nearest Apple store is 2 hours away

I'm having this problem with CD-Rs on my new iMac. So far 3 good burns from the Finder against 5 bad. The first 4 failures died with 0x8002006E and the most recent with "Burning the disc failed because communication to the disc drive failed. (Error code 0x80020022)". Visually all the burns failed with about the same amount of the diskwritten. The DiscRecording.log visible in the Console app shows the writes failing at the same spot (except for the first which is a nonsense number):
+Finder: Write (10), block: 4294967146, count: 32 -> 3/0C/00 Medium Error, Write error+
+Finder: Write (10), block: 94240, count: 32 -> 3/0C/00 Medium Error, Write error+
+Finder: Write (10), block: 94080, count: 32 -> 3/0C/00 Medium Error, Write error+
+Finder: Write (10), block: 94144, count: 32 -> 3/0C/00 Medium Error, Write error+
The last failure showed this:
+Finder: Burn sense: 4/09/01 Hardware Error, Tracking servo failure+
+Finder: Burn error: 0x80020022 The device failed to respond properly, unable to recover or retry.+
Which is beginning to look like a hardware or firmware failure (some other forums seem to suggesting that the problem started with a firmware upgrade). I'll be checking with Apple support directly.
One other oddity, I've tried selecting 8x burn speed - the default is 24x - but DiscRecording.log records this in every case:
+Finder: Requested burn speed was max, actual burn speed is 24x.+
For the record I'm not using a particularly reputable brand of media (Infiniti's from www.medea.co.uk, bought locally) because I thought I'd start with the cheap ones and work up. Messages in this forum and others suggest that the 0x8002006e problem occurs with all brands of media so I'm not confident that upgrading would fix the problem.

Error Code When Burning (Power calibration area error. (0x73, 0x03.)

I've been searching for answers to my problem and it seems like this problem has randomly popped up for many others like it has for me.
A month ago I randomly started getting this error code Power calibration area error. (0x73, 0x03.) when I tried to burn dvds in DVD Studio Pro. When I try to burn a DVD just from the finder options I get this error Code (Error code 0x8002006D)
But CD's burn fine for me.
I have been using the exact same discs that were able to burn before. They are 16x speed Memorex.
I tried relaunching the finder. I bought a Disc Cleaner today and i bought some 8x speed DVD's. I cleaned the Burner and I was able to successfully burn a 8x cd but still not the 16x.
Does anyone know the cause of this error code? Why would it just randomly happen?

Error message 0X80020022 error code when burning CD.

Does anyone have any idea what this error message is? I was trying to burn a DVD on X8 speed...
If anyone could help I would appreciate it!
Thanks
Kris

I believe it's a hardware issue anthough don't quote me on that as I'm not sure. I would call AppleCare with this error code. They'll know for sure. I would also try burning to a differnet brand media to ensure it's not a media issue. I would suggest you try Verbatim DVD-Rs.

Error code when burning a DVD

When attempting to burn photos to a DVD, I get the errror code ox8002006e. What does this mean and what do I do?
Airstream1

Possibly an issue with your optical drive.
Are you still under warranty?
Have you tried other media?
Have you tried slower speeds?

Error code -3 when trying to burn a cd

I am haveing a problem burning CDs from my playlist. I had to burn one disk 2 times and both times, I had an error that my preffered CD burner is unavailable (the internal one) and then it would burn the disc, but it would have the first song recorded blank/muted. When I try to use an external CD burner, I get error code (-3). Does anyone know what this means and how can I fix it?
Thanks.

I had the same problem with Dell Vostro 1000. My problem was with TSScorp DVD+RW TS-L632H drive. I applied new firmware that lilmaqi posted the link to and it worked. Make sure you follow the instruction on how to apply the firmware fix.

I keep getting error code 4450 when I'm trying to burn a CD from itunes. It keeps my CD and won't eject it and says "cancelling burn" forever then itunes locks up and my cd is ruined and NO songs on it.

i can't burn cd's in iTunes anymore. I get error code 4450 when I'm trying to burn a playlist. Songs from my own cd's, or bought in iTunes (have not burned 7x's as I can't BURN any cd's at all!), Then my cd gets stuck in the drive. and it says "cancelling burn" forever and then itunes freezes up. I have a Dell with Windows 7.
-I've slowed down the burn as slow as it can go
-I have bought 3 different brands of cd's
-i have the latest version of iTunes.
Can someone help me?

I have Windows 7 on a Dell. Open and play iTunes in the compatability mode and use Windows XP (service pack 2). Disregard any messsages to disable the compability mode. This has worked for me. I have also reinstalled iTunes and played with burn speeds etc. These ideas did not work. Compatability mode works.

Error Code when trying to burn from a burn folder

Hey everyone,
I am trying to clean up some space on my powerbook G4 (not that I need to) but I like to keep things tidy. I was trying to burn some files onto a CD, it recognized the blank CD, displayed it in my finder as well as the burn icon, I had all the files set up, I hit burn, went to the speed selector, and then when I hit ok an error message popped up saying could not burn "Error Code 0x80020000). Any clue as to why that is? This is the first time I have had a problem burning files, both music and data have worked before.
Thanks for the help.

Hi, Joshua.
I presume you are using the internal optical drive that shipped from the factory with your PowerBook G4.
1. You wrote: "I am trying to clean up some space on my powerbook G4 (not that I need to) but I like to keep things tidy."Be careful not to "tidy up" anything outside of your Home folder or the Macintosh HD > Users > Shared folder. Your Home > Library folder is another folder that should not be altered unnecessarily.
"Tidying" System files can render your Mac inoperable unless you either:
• Have a deep understanding of Mac OS X and the files in question.
• Are instructed to remove such a file by someone with such understanding.
2. You wrote: "Error Code 0x80020000)"This is an "Internal Disc Recording" error.
You may have selected too high a speed for the optical media or the optical drive, have bad media, or be using optical media that your optical drive cannot see correctly. Some new, high-speed media use dyes that are problematic with older Mac optical drives. See Macintosh: Factors That Affect Writing to or Reading From Optical Media. If you've not used this brand of media before, try a brand and speed of media that has worked in the past.
Good luck!

Error Code -43 : unable to burn a CD in Jaguar 10.2.8

Hello everyone - good to be here. I hope someone can help me.
I'm trying to back up a folder (contains JPEG images) on to a CD-RW (or CD-R).
I recently upgraded from OSX 10.1 to 10.2 (and then to 10.2.8 via the online update) without any problems. About 6 weeks ago, I burned a similar folder to CD when I was still on OSX 10.1 and that was fine - the CD image appeared on the desktop, I prepared it, dragged the folder over, and it burned and self-verified.
Now this is my first attempt at burning a CD via OSX 10.2: no CD appeared on the Desktop, although the Finder preferences indicate that it should(?), and a box appeared saying 'You inserted a blank CD...choose from the pop-up menu (Open Finder/iTunes/Disk Copy)'. I believe this message is new to OSX 10.2 but quite normal?
The trouble is, I'm not sure where to go from there, because when I opt for 'Open Finder', the message disappears, the CD ejects, and an error message appears:
"The operation could not be completed. An unexpected error occurred (error code -43)"
I've tried searching these discussions threads for that error code, and CD burning issues, but nothing precisely relevant is turning up. (A Google search says that code -43 means something like 'File or Folder not found', but I don't know how accurate or up-to-date that is, or what it could signify.)
The drive still reads and plays my existing CDs without any problems.
My 600MHz G3 Power PC iMac has 384Mb memory, and when I open the MacHD icon, the status bar says 31.14Gb available.
I'd quite like to get to the root of this, because my new job is going to involve having to back-up a lot of written work at regular intervals.
Sorry if this query is a bit dull, and my operating system (and computer knowledge!) is behind the times, but I would be very grateful for any help.
Thank you.

Hi, I'm back as promised. [sound of collective groaning]
The good news is that, because the CD-R icon had started to reappear on the desktop, I tried to burn a file and (with one exception - see later) the CD burned fine. I then Repaired Permissions as advised; quite a few items appeared on the list of repairs, but it completed successfully. However, it didn't solve the problem of the CD-RW icon not appearing and it still produces the Error Message 'Error Code -43'. However, I'm slightly less worried now, because I've managed to backup to a CD-R and hopefully that'll continue to work.
Thank you for your advice on the above - maybe it's a media problem after all.
But just out of interest: There were three other irritating problems, two of which I've had for a while, and which are still there after Repairing Permissions, and one that's come to light since I burned the CD-R. The first two I didn't mention before because they're unimportant compared to the potential failure to back-up to CD, but I'll mention these now in case there's a really obvious solution, and they may shed some light on the original problem:
1. When I access youtube.com (or any forum/messageboard that has a YouTube video embedded), I get an alert box showing an exclamation point and the message 'Javascript Application [Type Function]' (or 'IE Script Alert [type function]' depending on the browser) and underneath that
two windows saying '404 Not Found'. When I close those and select a YouTube clip, I get the message that I've either got Javascript switched off (I haven't!) or I have an outdated Flash version. Well, I've got Flash OSX version 9, but when I remount it, first it appears to think I've got an Intel Mac not a PowerPC, but when I override that it installs almost fully before producing the Flash messages 'Error Creating File 1008:5; - 5000 Access denied error' and 'You do not have enough access privileges for this installation'.
2. All my folders have started opening in new windows, rather than superseding each other as they used to. I've no idea why, because my Finder Preferences doesn't have that box checked at all.
3a. When I Trash an item, it doesn't go to rest in the Trash, instead it produces a message saying the item will be immediately deleted, do I want to continue? I'm not sure why this is happening now, it never did before;
3b. I wanted to Trash an individual JPEG image but I got a message saying 'The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for [JPEG name]'. No other JPEG images are affected by this.
As I say, the above 3 problems I can live with if they can't be solved (though I do miss YouTube!), but I just wondered if they might ring a bell with anyone in the light of my original unsolved problem. I suspect my iMac may be going a little mad in its old age.
Thanks again, and sorry to take up more of your time.
