Formating Failed    Write error (0x0C, 0x00.)  ?

Dose anybody know what this means?
The recording device reported the media error: Write error (0x0C, 0x00.)
Project is basic:
3 Menus and basic Quicktime files in the Menus.
Any thoughts appreciated

I need to add additional info about how to burn at lower speeds. You don't need to use a 3rd party burning application like Toast. You can use Disk Utility.
When you "Format" your DVD in DVDSP, select disk image from the available burners. Then open Disk Utility, select the image from the list on the left and click the BURN icon. After inserting your media, you can set the burn speed from the drop down menu in the burn dialog. Choose something lower than the maximum available in the list. For example, using the TDK media I have, 16x is the max but I choose 6x to make sure it will work.
This works with DVDSP 4 and MacOS X 10.4 Tiger. I'm not sure if older versions will work the same.

  • Media write error (0x0C,0x00.) is preventing me from publishing..HELP!

    Projects updated from DVD Studio 3 won't
    write. I remade project completely in DVDSP4 but
    get same error.
    How do I check for bad assets????

    Hi
    It sounds like a media (burning) error, not related with your project design. Try first building your project to your hard drive , or even better, * Creating Disc Image in DVDSP * that you can mount and test with DVD Player. If it works fine, try burning using Toast or Disk Utility like the tutorial shows. DVDSP uses to be too much sensitive to media and you cannot change buyrning speed.
    You can read * about quality media * and try with another first quality brand.
    Hope that helps !

  • Unknown Device Error (0x0C, 0x00.) When trying to Burn

    The past few days i've run into problems trying to burn from my Mac Book Pro.
    In DVD Studio pro i get the " Unknown Device Error (0x0C, 0x00.)" when I try to burn from the burning on the computer.
    I even tried burning from an external Lacie drive and I get the "Unknown Device Error (0x30, 0x05.)
    I've cleared up hard drive space i have 5 gigs free. And I've tried restarting many times. I haven't run into problems like this before.

    Hi
    That can be caused by bad quality media. Read here about * about quality media * and try allways to use first quality group.
    Besides that, DVDSP is not the best burning software at all. My prefered workflow is * Creating Disc Image in DVDSP * and burning it with Toast or Disk Utility.
    Hope that helps !

  • Win2K - Infra Install - DB Config Asstn fails "write error"

    I'm trying to install the 9iAS Release 2 infrastrukture on a 1.4 Ghz P4 with 1.5 gigabytes of ram and enough disk. The machine already has 9iR2 database on it.
    It installs the software, but fails when it tries to run the database configuration assistant. The logfile is shown below, along with a full description of the command being run.
    Win2K is very happy (nothing in the logs indicating disk errors), and the error is consistent through a number of attempts.
    Did anybody see anything like this before?

    Hi
    Sorry, its a complete re-build for you!!
    I Had similar problems with the oracle installs where config assistants using jrew located in c:\program files... would not run.
    Usually this is not a problem as they can be run outside of the installer. It seems to be a problem installer 2.x on well used Windows installations. However, it does not seem that the issue can be worked round for the 9iAS R2 Infrastructure as some of the other config assistants run and create major authentication problems. A completely fresh install of W2K Sp2 seems to be the only answer.
    Best of Luck

  • Formatting Failed - Media Error

    I am attempting to burn a DVD that has 4.6G of data in the meter. It's chaptered out and ready to go. When I hit the burn button it goes through all the compiling stuff, then at the end gave me an error message I have taken a snapshot of below. Any ideas?
    http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s63/jtnacc/Mac%20shots/ishot-1.jpg

    here is an idea. I have learned that you can't burn a dvd bigger than 4 gig. at least in my case. check your your hard drive it needs at least 10 gig to burn I don't know if this will help. I was wondering if you have trouble burning a dvd where it says missing assets in track one. I get everything done it simulates well but when burn time comes everthing flops. Where is the track that I need to fill. thank you buddy429 [email protected]

  • Formatting write error every time when trying to burn a DVD

    DVD Studio has worked for me in the past, but now every time I try to burn a DVD project, I get this: "Formatting failed - The recording device reported the media error: Write error (0x0C, 0x00)"
    As far as I can tell, I cleared the prefs for DVD Studio, but that didn't help. Does anyone have an idea of what I can do to fix this problem? Thx.

    Hi:
    Wellcome to the forum !
    Probably DVDSP and/or your drive don't like your media. No matter that, me and other found that DVDSP is one of the worst way to burn DVDs.
    Try * Creating Disc Image in DVDSP * and burn it using Disk Utility and/or Toast.
    About your media, you can * USE THIS SITE * as reference.
    Hope that helps !

  • IPod 5g 30gb freezes...iTunes...Failed-Delayed Write Error

    For some reason my iPod is just going whacko! When I plug it into my computer everything is reconized fine, and iTunes starts to sync the iPod with my library...after about 45sec. of "coping" the iPod screen freezes, and then an error message comes up at the bottom of the screen stating Windows Dlayed Write Error - Failed...anyway, it does this everytime and I can't put music on my iPod cause of it. It's not iTunes itself cause I tried it on my laptop and it did the same thing. It's not the iPod I don't think because other programs work fine on it, like EphPod, but I want iTunes to work since I have put so much time into correcting the library to just the way I want it.
    -Previous Problems & Solutions-
    When I first got my iPod it was ok getting it setup and stuff although I was concerned because when it first formated it it put on a partition so I could only fill it up 4.7gb, te size of the formatted partition. But that comes in later...well, my friend kinda droped it after the first week...thats when I got the real troubles, when I went to go add songs to my iPod it acted weird, it would be reconized by windows explorer, although it wanted me to format it. But not by iTunes. After trying to reset it a billion times, I finally just decided to format it with windows, thus solving the partition problem, but I left it formatting all night and when I woke up my computer had completely frozen and the format had only gotten to 5% so I then tried to restore it now that the partition was broken...yeah! It worked, ad iTunes now reconized it. And I could open it with windows explorer. I guess it's ok to format it with windows. As long as it's a FAT32.
    iPod 5g 30gb Video 1.1 USB 2.0   Windows XP Pro   AMD Atholon XP 6400 2.0ghz 512mb RAM USB 2.0

    I had the same problem last night with the same iPod. I use a USB docking station with my laptop and it has some USB ports on the back. I had added another USB device and ran out of ports, so I plugged a 4-port USB 2.0 hub into the docking station, and the iPod into that. I then had the same problem you describe. I re-arranged things so that the iPod was back plugged into the docking station (which itself is a 4-port hub) and everything worked okay. I guess the iPod doesn't like being plugged into a hub that's plugged into a hub.
    If you use a hub, try it without, or try on another USB port.
    My system is all USB 2.0, if yours is 1.1 it may just be slow enough to cause iTunes to "time out".

  • Formatting Failed: Cannot Write Medium...

    Hi There,
    I've been trying to burn a particular DVD now for some time. I've had nothing but problems with Compressor and DVDSP creating video artifacting (and yes, my audio is an AC3 file). This was never a problem in the older version though.
    Anyways, I bought Sorenson Squeeze because it will encode MPEG 2 files as well as I need it for Flash. After I created a .MPV file from Squeeze I brought it into DVDSP and everything seems fine - until I went to format the disc I got the following error:
    Formatting Failed
    The recording device reported the not ready error:
    Cannot write medium - incompatible format (0x30, 0x05.)
    I tried burning the disc in Toast and got a formatting failed error there too. I'm trying to burn picture only right now so there are no audio files to screw any of this up.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    K

    Hi Kristin:
    Before trying to burn directly from DVDSP, did you build the project in your hard drive? I mean go to Format and select Destination > Output Device > Hard Drive. That will create an .img file (a DVD image file) that first: you can mount double clickig it and test it with DVD player, and second, you can take it and just drop into Toast icon (or drop the .img file into the Copy section of Toast)and burn the final video DVD.
    In that way you use DVDSP for creating the complete final DVD structure and Toast to burn it. It could help in case that DVDSP doesn't "like" your media.

  • Format Failed error when trying to format a WD MyBook 1TB external

    I have tried twice to format the drive with the same "Format Failed" error message. I know it was still formatting with 28 minutes remaining (of the 7 hour format job) the first time - the second time it ran over night. Both times, I formatted with Mac OS Extended (journaled), and selected to zero out the data.
    The only difference between the two attempts was a message reporting the Mac lost connection with the drive (after the first attempt) - didn't see any such message this morning after the second attempt.
    I set a couple partitions, and ran "Disk Verify".
    "DIsk Verify" lists the things it has checked, and gives the following messages:
    The volume Startup Backup appears to be OK.
    The volume Time Machine appears to be OK.
    Other than the "Format Failed" error message, the disk appears to be ok. The "Startup Backup" volume is 319.87 GB as I set, and the "Time Machine" volume is 611.64 GB
    I am able to copy a file to both volumes.
    So, is the "Format Failed" error message real, and the "Disk Verify" fails to see a problem because it is checking things like the Catalog file, and not each spot on the drive?
    Are there any disk utilities that can test the whole drive?

    As I can see from the information posted, you are trying to
    use URL-based portlet's SSO feature, though not in a correct
    way.
    The SSO feature of URL-based portlets relie on the usage
    of Cookies as authentication tokens. For example, in the
    present context, http://hostname:port/j2ee/examples/jsp/c.jsp
    will write a cookie to the client upon successfull authentication.
    Subsequent access to the same JSP or some other JSP in the same
    workspace should be checking for the existence of this particular
    cookie at the client side and if found should not prompt for
    user information again.
    If you can fine tune your existing applications as per above
    conditions, then everything should work fine. Else you might
    want to use page parameters to pass user information.

  • Failed to update - disk write error (WinXP Pro)

    These are the steps I performed to get my Nano in it's current state of displaying the contact "www.apple.com/support/ipod" error message.
    When I bought it last November, the itunes on the CD was outdated and needed updating. Today, after a fresh install of WinXP, I decided to be "smart" and simply download the latest itunes for windows to save some steps.
    After installing itunes and rebooting, I plugged the Nano in and discovered it was not recognized. (I hadn't realized the driver was not loaded when I install itunes)
    I inserted the original CD and accepted the defaults - the nano was recognized and I could view the files via itunes.
    I attempted to add a song - and received an error "disk write error" from itunes.
    itunes informed me that my Nano needed an update, so I proceeded to download the updater - hoping that would fix things.
    The updater errored our stating it had a write error also.
    At this point, my Nano was now displaying the !folder error with the support url.
    I have attempted to run the "restore" function of the updater and that fails to work also.
    The battery in the ipod shows fully charged, and I have rebooted the PC numerous times and re-installed itunes twice.
    I have attempted the "select+menu" reset and that just results in returning to the "!folder" error.
    I have also tried forcing it into disk mode - which it is now in - this made no difference in the update attempt either.
    Finally, the Nano does show up as a drive under windows, however, windows says it needs formatting, and so far I have declined to allow it to proceed.
    Suggestions are much appreciated - I'm hoping it is not so badly screwed up I need to send it in for service/replacement.
    Nano   Windows XP Pro  

    I found my answer here:
    http://www.makezine.com/blog/archive/2005/09/howto_ipodnan.html
    Someone else had the same difficulty and allowed windows to format the disk - and then restore worked.
    I tried the same - and voila! Restore worked, Nano is now good as new again

    My iTunes was not able to read the contents of the iPOD and there seems to be a corrupt filesystem. After reviewing various posts, I have tried the following with little success:
    1. Tried Restore using the Updater tool that came with the Shuffle (2005-09-23). I kept getting the "Firmware update failure. Disk write Error"
    2. Downloaded the new updater tool (2006-03-23) and tried restore again. I got the same error message again.
    3. Tried formatting using Windows format, it is not able to complete the format
    4. Tried chkdsk. Get an error message saying "CHKDSK is not available for RAW drives."
    5. Tried connecting it to a different computer and tried pretty much the same steps. Similar results.
    I am using USB 2.0 both on my current Thinkpad as well as the other computer I tried with.
    I am totally clueless and am not sure how to go about fixing this one. Though there have been lots of posts about this, I haven't been able to find a solution that works for me. Any thing else that I may have missed out which I can try?
    Thanks,

    hiya!
    just checking. have you worked through the possibilities from this document yet?
    "Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing iPod or "Firmware update failure" error when updating or restoring iPod
    given that you're connecting to a laptop, we'd better check on this possibility too:
    iPod not recognized when connected to Windows laptop over USB
    ... and even though you aren't using a Toshiba, this technique might be worth a try (if all else fails):
    iPod not recognized correctly on Toshiba laptop

    I got an error message while burning a CD in iTunes - "the attempt to burn a disc failed.  The burn failed because of a medium write error."  What does this mean and how do I fix it?

    The disk you are using probably has a defect, not uncommon on consumer grade disks. Try another disk or better yet another disk from a different manufacturer or at least a different batch.

  • DAG - Backup failing on 1 DB only with error - The Microsoft Exchange Replication service VSS Writer instance ID failed with error code 80070020 when preparing for a backup of database 'DB012'

    Hi Board,
    i´ve search across the board, technet and symantec sites but did not found a hint about my problem.
    we drive a 2 node DAG (Location1-Ex1-mb1 
    Location2-exc1-mb1), on SP2 RU4 patchlevel with 40 Databases.
    Since some time the backup of one - and only one DB - is failing with these events, logged on the Mailboxserver on which the passive DB is hosted.

    The backup Application - Symantec Backup Exec 2010 R3 – states, this error
    Snapshot provider error (0xE000FED1): A failure occurred querying the Writer status.
    Check the Windows Event Viewer for details.
    Writer Name: Exchange Server, Writer ID: {76FE1AC4-15F7-4BCD-987E-8E1ACB462FB7}, Last error: The VSS Writer failed, but the operation can be retried (0x800423f3), State: Stable (1).
    Symatec suggests within http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH184095
    to restart the MS Exchange Replication Service – BUT the mentioned eventID
    8229 isn´t present on any of the both Mailboxservers.
    The affected Database is active on Location2-Exc1-Mb1 Server and in an overall healthy state. I found during my research, that below Location2-Exc1-Mb1 Server, there are not removed shadow copies present!
    This confuses me, since all Backups are normally taken from the passive copy of a Database.
    So my questions to the board are:
    * Does anyone is facing similar issues?
    * Can someone explain why snapshots are present on the Mailboxserver hosting the Active Database, whilst the errors are logged on the passive one?
    -          * Does someone know the conditions, why shadows copies remain and
    aren´t removed in a proper manner?
    What can cause the circumstance, that only 1 DB is facing such issues?
    Any suggestion is welcome!

    Hi Lenora,
    I´ve encreases VSS / Exchange Backup Log levels to expert, before starting
    those things i´ve all tried now:
    - Backup from passive DB (forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
    - Backup from active DB (forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
    - Backup from passive DB without GRT enabled (forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
    - Backup from active DB without GRT enabled(forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
    All those attempts failed.
    But brought some more details - the backup against the active DB states, that there is still a backup in progress and therefore this backup is cancelled by VSS.
    The Solution was, that i´ve needed to restart the Exchange Replication Service on the Mailbox Server hosting the passive DB.
    Backups are working again on all DBs!
    THX for your replys.
    Best regards
    Markus

  • The Attempt to burn disc failed.  The burn failed because of a medium write error.

    When trying to burn a CD, I'm getting an error that reads:The Attempt to burn disc failed.  The burn failed because of a medium write error.  I experienced this message before and took my Macbook in to the store and the the genius was stumped but when he tried one of his CD's it burned fine to he concluded that the problem was in the CD's NOT the Macbook or program  HOWEVER, months later, I'm having the same issue using the NEW CD's.  Does anyone have any information about this?

    3 methods to fix this:
    The first is to reset pram
    at boot up hold four keys down till you hear 3 chimes:
    command(apple)=option+p+r
    release keys and it will now reboot.
    The second is to reset nvram
    at boot up hold four keys down:
    command(apple)+option+o+f
    a black screen will appear
    now type: reset-nvram
    click enter
    now type: reset-all
    click enter
    it will now reboot
    The third is to open system preferences.
    go to international
    under languages: drag any of the other languages to the top, then drag english back to the top.
    make sure "order for sorted lists" is set to english
    make sure "word break" is set to english(united states, computer)
    then restart.
    I hope this helps you as it certainly did me. :^)
