Error message unknown device error (0x73, 0x03)

I created a project in FCP and prepared to burn it in DVD Studio Pro but when I tried to burn it I got this error message : unknown device error (0x73, 0x03). Does anyone have any brilliant ideas on how to burn this?

What speed disc are you using? That burner will only burn speeds up to 8x for DL. You might also try burning at the slowest possible speed.

What should be the problem?

There could be a few reasons, a common one is bad DVDs or a burner going bad.

Getting an error message, "unknown authentication issue" and solutions have only made it worse.

When trying to publish with Muse, get error message, "unknown authentication error has occurred using your adobe id. (shared unknown error)". Support site said to delete OOBE folder. Did that and got an error when opening Muse that says to redownload application manager. Go to that page and it says to redownload the adobe cloud desktop. Still getting both errors. ???

DVD Burning Error: Unknown device error. (0x73, 0x03.)

I have been trying to burn a home movie using iDVD. I transferred the media successfully to my computer, followed all the steps, and was finally ready to burn the DVD. After waiting almost an hour through the burn process, it spit the DVD back out of my Macbook Pro and gave me the following message.
*Errors were found during the burning process:*
*The recording device reported the media error: Unknown device error. (0x73, 0x03.)*
I don't really know what this means. Was the media corrupt? Or is there a problem with my DVD player? I have supplied my DVD and computer information below. I would appreciate all the help I can get. Thank you in advance!

Using the same media I've used for years (Verbatim 4x InkJet printable) and all of a sudden can't burn from the internal drive. I do have an external burner (7 disc standalone replicator with USB/FireWire 400) and hooked that up and burned to a disc from the same spindle with no problem, and then made a 3x replicate with the same media. So it's looking like my MacBook Pro's drive is failing?
Laptop is plugged in and fully charged.

HT1222 restoring iphone 3GS - error message 'unknown error -1' occurred.

when restoring my iphone 3gs itunes attempts to restore then come back with error message 'unknown error -1' occurred. what to do now?

Hey Lawrence,
A big THANK YOU!! to you! Your suggestions worked!
Before I changed USB ports (more on that in a sec...), I employed one of your suggestions that you gave to someone else with the same problem...and that was to clean the connector on the bottom of the phone with a soft dry tooth brush. I couldn't believe the amount of lint that came out! Especially what was found in either end...had to do some very careful picking. (Almost enough lint to knit a small sweater!!)
Changing the USB port was the second and final step required for a successful backup. My computer is a laptop, and I did have a USB Bluetooth adapter (for another device) installed. I removed the adapter, plugged the iPhone into that USB port, crossed my fingers...and it worked!!!
Now if I can figure out the rest of this darn program, I might upgrade to a new iPhone!
Again, thank you very much Lawrence!
Rich

I've burnt a digital copy of 3 blu ray dvds onto my iTunes, but i cant sync them to my iPad-an error message says device needs to be authorized, but its only authorised to this computer, i've never tried to use it on any other! Can anyone help?!

Thanks for your reply, but you might have misunderstood it a bit. I'm NOT trying to buy a movie. ****, I'm not even in the actual Apple Store, when this happens I'm in the library not the Store part of iTunes.
To clarify - I have purchased a physical copy of a movie which came with another physical copy which contains the digital copy. The digital copy is on the DVD, all I need is just to transfer this file to my iPod Touch, for example, I'm not trying to download it from the store or repurchase it and it's not any gift code that I've received, the digital copy is on the disc. This is the first time ever that I've purchased something on a disc and I'm not allowed to access it because the disc hasn't been purchased within my country.
So again - I'm not attempting any purchase or download any purchased digital copy - it's on a DVD I own physically so... why is even the region of my Store relevant, the code I enter is (as I assume) just supposed to check if it's a legal genuine copy (which it is, as I've said - there are 6 discs in the pack: 3 movies on 3 Blu-rays and 3 DVD containing these digital copies of them). If I own it, I think that's proof enough that I have the right to use it. I just don't get it. I fully agree with you and understand your point if there was any purchase going on here, but it's not, it's just - I put a disc into my computer and I can't access it

I get an error message "unknown publisher" when I download quicktime 7.7 for windows 64bit

I am trying to download quicktime and I get an error message :unknown publisher". I am using windows 7 64-bit operating system. Can anyone help me?

Which I get. But clicking on that link you provided does not give you the option of choosing between 32 and 64 bit installers.
Yeah, that was certainly a 32-bit installer file being referred to in the other message, too. (The 64-bit installer file is called iTunes64Setup.exe.)
Just in case it's an issue with your normal browser not working properly with the system-detection equipment on the page (there's a javascript control that checks for operating system specifics, and is supposed to deliver the correct Mac or Windows installers), let's try a different web browser for the download. If you use Firefox instead of IE (or vice versa), do you get offered an iTunes64Setup.exe instead of an iTunesSetup.exe?

Unknown device error

I am trying to build and format a project I have completed in DVDSP4. All the files are on an external HD. I have successfully formatted 3 copies of the DVD already of this project, however, I keep getting an error during formatting which says, "unknown device error." Is this possibly related to the data being on the hard drive? If not, what is possibly causing the error.
Thank you in advance.

It sounds more like an error with the DVD burner. Maybe slowing down the burn speed will help. But you cannot do this with DVDSP directly. You have to first format a disk image and then use Disk Utility to burn the image. Disk Utility allows you to slow down the burn speed.
To create a disk image in DVDSP, choose your hard drive in the burner popup menu when formating a Project. Instead of burning a DVD, DVDSP will create a disk image.
When you open Disk Utility, the new image should showup in the bottom left column. Select it and click the Burn button. Make sure to choose a burn speed from the pop up menu that is slower than maximum.

Try this and see if it helps. Refresh your iTunes account. Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to purchase again.

MegaSky 580 - Presto! Error message "The device is not ready"

Error message "The device is not ready. Please check whether your device is connected correctly."
I can see the device in the drop down menu of the settings window, when I select It, I get again the same error message.
If I plug off the usb stick, presto! Do not see the device anymore
I did have this problem since the beginning, I did try a lot ,
I install also the updates for the “digital TV usb min receiver” and the updates for the presto software (from the presto and msi homepage).
But nothing was helping.
After a couple of weeks I needed to reinstall the laptop from scratch.
And the first thing that I did was trying the presto software again, and it was working everything fine.
After a couple of weeks I install some other stuff and all of the Microsoft patches,
And I did get the same problem back.
So it seems that something is disturbing the communication between the USB stick and the presto software, but what!
The usb stick is working finr, I did try it with a powercinema trial version, and it is working, but why the OEM software of the USB stick not working, I hate it!
It would also helpful, to get a kind of log functionalities, due to the fact,
that no logs are available! Maybe somebody knows kind of switch to increase the verbosity and get an error log?
I have seen the same problem in this and other forums, so I’m not the only one.
But no solution found, maybe someone has found it…..

The Acer laptop, whic works with Mega Sky 580, is a celeron, can´t remember the exact spec., 1,5 Ghz, 1G DDR
Think my faulty computer is similar to the one (B) you described... is it a Dell thing?

I am having the very same problem:
3 Systems:
A- Desktop MB-Abit AN7, AMD Athlon 3000+ - working fine with all software and drivers updates. All aviable XP updates applied. XP Pro SP2
B- Laptop Dell Dimension 6000, Intel Centrino, 1.6Ghz Mobile, 512MB DDR2- cannot get it working- tried all aviable updates, all XP updates applied, XP Home SP2, Intel Chipset drivers- newest, says every time "The device is not ready. Please check whether your device is connected correctly."
C- Desktop Intel P4 3.0Ghz, 512MB RAM, Intel chipset- was working first 2 or 3 reboots then the same problem "device not ready", all updates, all XP updates, all motherboard updates, XP Pro SP2
On systems B and C the tuner is recognised properly in Device Manager and correct drivers installed(the newest from MSI+software patch)
The only logical conclusion I can make at this point is that there is something to do with the chipset make, as it works just fine on AMD and on Intel it won't, using the same software+drivers.
Any other ideas? Or just dump the thing in the bin

Please help.

I am experiencing the same issue as dwarfland. I have a black 64GB iPhone 5s running iOS version 7.1.1 and a grandfathered unlimited data plan with AT&T. I have had an iTunes Match subscription pretty much since it was introduced. I currently have around 19500 songs in my music library and try to have only around 2000-2500 songs physically located on the phone itself (all of my "top-rated" songs in a single playlist). I have recently needed to re-download all these "top-rated" songs after I restored my phone from a backup, wiping all the songs from my phone. Thanks for posting your experiences, hopefully someone from Apple will notice and help us out with a solution.
