G5 will not burn photo data CD will burn music CD

when trying to burn CD
1. Preparing data
2. writing track 1
3. Error Code OX8002 006D
4. CD is spit out
Yet when using iTunes there are no problems burning a music CD.
Help.
I want to share my lovely photos.

Burn error: 0x8002006D The device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media.
I haven't found anything on that error code from Apple or Sony (my dvd player). I did find out that it means the drive isn't able to read the media for some reason. A year ago I had something similar happen and a lens cleaning disc did the trick.
Here's what I learned: DVD's and CD's aren't the same and different applications treat them each differently as well.
The progression I've been throuh this time: trying different brands (Sony or Maxell - or so 'they say'), make sure I had enough space to burn on my HD, clean out caches with catch x, mac janitor, or onyx and when that still failed, delete .plist and reboot. (actually i just rename plist). Each one of those things could've made burning a problem for some media, in some areas and not others.
Then I created a guest account, logged in and that worked perfectly. I have no idea why or what to do next.
This seems to be a fairly common problem that's been going on for awhile now. Apple doesn't have a single document on it. I think most are just replacing thier drives.
I hope that helped.

    Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 will not open photo files

    You are rude, to say the least.  It is adobe's fault for marketing it as compatible.  Yet another reason why I want nothing to do with adobe.  The fact they marketed it as compatible when it is not is what I have a problem with.  I am not blaming the software, I am blaming the company.

  • Iphoto will not enable photo stream

    My iPhoto will not enable Photo Stream.  All software is up to date and I have the latest version of iPhoto, in fact Photo Stream was working last week on my Mac.  Now all I get is the msg "iPhoto cannot enable Photo Stream".  Any thoughts ??

    Hey dave2468, as you can tell by my original post, this problem surfaced several months ago and out of frustration for lack of an answer to the problem - I called Apple for support.  I was fully prepared to spend the $50 bucks to resolve this issue but fortunately didn't have to.  My problem did get resolved after about 1 &1/2 hours on the phone and the solution revolved around resetting my password for my account...can't tell you why other than ghost in the machine issue.  Yours may be different issue but wanted to let you know how this ultimately got resolved.  I have had no further issues relative to this problem since my phone consultation.  Best of luck - I know how frustrating these things can be.

  • Itunes v12.1 itunes will not sync photos from photoshop 12

    Since I downloaded itunes v12.1, itunes will not sync photos from Photoshop 12 to my iphone 5, 6+ and older Apple TV (with hard Drive). Prior to the itunes software update, all was well.  itunes indicates "0" photos available from Photoshop when there are over 7,000 photos on my desktop. I tried uninstalling itunes and reinstalling - no success. Perhaps itunes v13 may fix the problem, meanwhile , any suggestions.

    I link to it in th epost above yours.
    http://www.iphonehacks.com/2013/09/download-itunes-11-1.html
    Scroll down to;
    Then click Mac, or whatever one is applicible to you.
    Be warned though. After synced, successfully, with iTunes 11.1, i ended up with over 10GB's of 'Other' data on my iphone. I had to do a factory reset (From iTunes/iPhone/Summary). It's been a pain in the ***, but it all seems fine now. But it has taken me hours. An di now have a headache.
    Also, a factory reset will remove ALL your data, and i mean EVERYTHING! You've spend the rest of the day putting everything back the way you like it, and setting up all your setting again.
    Pain in the ***.

  • External drive not showing up - which disk initialization method will NOT erase the data on that external hard drive?

    Hi,
    as thousands of other users, my WD Passport drive worked like a charm until yesterday and now it wont show on any computer, but does show in the Disk management and when plugged in , the Disk Management offers two ways of initialization : MBR and GPT
    i dont understand any of that and want to know if any of those two methods will make the disk initialize wITHOUT loosing the data on the drive?
    i looked on so many forums and some people say that it will and others that it will not erase the data. 
    can you please tell me what is correct?? also a suggestion is to add some more wording to that initializaiton dialog box so that we can know what initialization does and doesnt
    thank you so much
    t 

    Try connecting it to a different computer to see if you can access the data, under no circumstances should you Initialize the drive as all existing data will be lost.
    If you still can't access your files, then remove the drive from the case and connect it via an extra SATA cable and power connector (you usually need a desktop PC in order to do this if the drive is a 3.5 inch model, a 2.5in drive will fit into a laptop
    if you have a spare slot).

  • My Mac Air iphoto will display thumbnails but will not display photos in any way - single photo / slideshow etc - any ideas

    My Mac Air iphoto will display thumbnails but will not display photos in any way - single photo / slideshow etc - any ideas?

    Are you seeing this
    when you double click on a thumbnail file?  If so it's an indication that the file path/link between the thrumbnail and original, full sized file has been broken.  Therefore, and assuming you're running iPhoto 9 or later, try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • Rebel Xsi display stopped working will not take photo

    I have had this camera for a few years.  I took it with me and left it covered in the car (hot day) and now the display will not light up and the camera will focus on an object but will not take photo.  
    Would heat cause the display to stop working?  What can be done to possibly correct this issue?

  • IPOD 60GB will not transfer PHOTOs from my XP 64 bit computer

    iPOD 60GB will not transfer PHOTOs from my XP 64 bit computer - I get read/write to iPOD hardrive error message. Everything esle is working (including iPOD update). Is it something I am doing wrong or is it not compatible with Window XP Pro 64 Bit just for photo transfer?
    AMD 3500   Windows XP Pro   Windows XP 64 bit

    I Loaded the iPOD software into an older 32 bit computer running windows XP Home edition and it works fine. As I suspected, it is NOT compatible with windows XP 64 Bit Pro edition OS - Beware! When is Apple going to update their software to run iTUNES & iPOD using the latest 64 BIT computer proessors?
