Help learning varous ways to burn from itunes format to mp3 cd

If I want to make an mp3 disc from an itunes playlist, I know that you can't do it directly. Can someone help suggest what are the easiest ways (what programs) to do this. I have no 3rd party software at this time.
Thanks, Jim

Hi Jim,
Yes, that seem to make sense.
In that case you need to look at the Convert option on the Advanced menu.
Before you do that you need to change the Import options (Preferences>Advanced>Importing) to MP3.
Next select a track you want as an MP3 and the Convert option should now have a Convert Selection to...
If you do this you will end up with a copy of the original in MP3 which you can then add to a new Playlist that has a criteria of type = MP3.
When you have finished testing this don't forget to set your Import options back to what they were before.
Regards,
Colin R.
ps Yes, having the option of what you want to Convert To on the Import is not the best place

Drive will not burn from itunes keep getting error...

Hi. When i try to burn from itunes i keep getting error " Attempt to burn to disc failed. The device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media."
I have looked this up and seems to be a problem for a lot of people yet apple seem to be ignoring it from what i have read. I have reset ram it worked once but never since even after resetting it again. So any ideas. Checked for updates noting. This is realy annoying now and i am losing faith in something i like. So apple get of your arse and sort this problem out.
Cheers

Hi martin wells1!
Rather than blaming Apple engineers, have you contacted support to arrange service on the machine? Hardware problems, traditionally, don't fix themselves. But that's where technicians come into play as a means to resolve those hardware problems.
If you get a "check engine light" in your vehicle, do you just drive around and wait for it to be fixed saying: "Man, I wish <insert car manufacturer> would fix my check engine light problem tonight."
I've encountered a similar error message on one (of many) MacBooks that I've come across recently, a service call later and a replacement optical drive... problem resolved.

Burning from iTunes 6

I have a 4th gen iPod, but using iTunes 6 with XP because my mom has the iPod video. How can I burn from iTunes? I can't seem to select the "Burn to Playlist to Disc" button. Oh, and if the song was deleted from the hard drive but still in the iTunes library, could it still be burned? Kindly advise. Thanks.

Oh, and if the song was deleted from the hard drive but still in the iTunes library, - I could be wrong, but if the song was deleted from the Hard Drive, where can the song be stored?

Disabling Autorun so I can burn from ITunes.

When I put a blank CD in my drive it automatically puts an "autorun" file on it. When I try to burn from ITunes it either says the drive is in use by another application or it says the cd is not blank. It has something to do with Roxio since the tab of the file often says Roxio. I have uninstalled Roxio from my computer, I have deleted all files with the word Roxio or autorun in its name and it doesn't solve the problem. I also have made ITunes my default media player. So what should I do now?

I am not sure about this, and I don't want to worry you, but there is an autorun worm that spreads via autoruns on removable media.
I think up to date security software should detect and remove it, so is your security software up to date?
It might be worth running a full scan with the free version of Malwarebytes:
http://www.malwarebytes.org/
Something else you could do is to open one of these autorun files with notepad and have a look. I don't know what the autorun puts in the file, but you might see something that looks odd.
You could also look to see if the CD contains any hidden files.
There is a Microsoft article on disabling autorun, but that stops it being executed rather than stopping the file being created.

Best way to import from iTunes & audio lock to video?

I just started with PrE 10 and am coming from years with iMovie HD6 (never liked the later versions). Can audio tracks be dragged from iTunes (by having 2 minimal sized windows of each application open) into the Project area? Or do you need to try and find each song by going through the whole Get Media File/Folder link process? I've tried dragging a few songs from iTunes, and it didn't seem to work (it was very easy in iMovie). I was able to add photos to the Project area from iPhoto by dragging them over from the iPhoto window.
Also, is there a way to lock (or link) the beginning of an added audio/soundtrack clip to a video clip, so that it does not inadvertently get moved, or so that if you move the video clip, or delete an earlier video clip, the locked audio goes with that video clip?
[Moved to the Premiere Elements main forum]

With Audio, you need to Import the file (Get Media), as Premiere needs to Conform the Audio, creating both a CFA (Conformed Audio) file, and a PEK (Waveform Display) file, and link to those.
Now, with iTunes, there can be some problems, though things have gotten a bit better recently. If you DO have an issue, you can create a Playlist in iTunes, and copy over all the files that you need for your Project, then burn a CD of that Playlist. The Audio-CD will be in the CDA container in as a WAV file, which should Import just fine, into PrE.
Actually, it might be easier, even if the iTunes music does Import, to create a Playlist in iTunes, where you can drag and drop right from the iTunes GUI, and then Import from that Playlist.
Good luck,
Hunt

Burning from iTunes to Toast

I am using iTunes 6 and Toast Titanium 8.
Is there a way to transfer a folder of tunes from iTunes and burn it on Toast.
I have never been successful if I drag the folder from iTunes as I think all I am getting are the titles and not the actual songs.
I believe this is because the actual music is kept in the Music folder in the Finder.
It's too time consuming to go into the Music folder and try to find the songs so I'm hoping there is a better way.
Thanks

You don‘t need to transfer anything from iTunes to use Toast.
Click Audio CD, click the blue arrow at the top left next to Audio CD, which slides out a pane on the side, select Media, select iTunes in the drop down box and select the songs from iTunes.

Audio CD burned from iTunes repetitively plays track 1

I burned several audio CD's from iTunes 7. When I play it on my home stereo and car stereo, it replays the first track endlessly unless I manually advance to the next song. I burned three CD's with the same result (changing the song intervals). Any ideas?? I think its kind of odd...

I was using CD-R's, though I will try a CD-RW. Yes,
I definitely chose buring an audio CD (not MP3 etc).
I called Apple about it (iTunes support was entirely
unhelpful) and they hadn't heard of this problem
either. I'll post the CD-RW result. Thanks for
your thoughts!
No, don't use CD-RW's for your test, use different CD-Rs, some cheaper cd-rs are notoriously flaky, or you might have a bad batch of good cd-rs. You might also try slowing your burning speed down and see if that helps.

CDs burned from iTunes don't play in CD player.

This is a relatively new issue - I've never had this problem before. They appear to burn correctly. Sometimes the CD player will correctly identify the number of tracks but when I hit play the CDs just spin around without playing. Other times it the CD player will not recognize the CD at all. I thought it was the CD player but older CDs play fine. And it's not the CDs; I've tried two different brands. I think the problem is in the "initializing" phase which used to last for perhaps ten seconds and now lasts for perhaps two seconds before burning starts. Anybody else ever have this issue?

Hello frb522,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning disc burning issues:

Burning from iTunes

I'm new and confused. I recently bought an album from iTunes. I decided to burn to a cd to play in my car but it is evidently 'protected'. How can I burn to a cd to be able to play in my car?

Under the burn options [Edit | Preferences... | Advanced | Burning], make sure the burn type is set to Audio CD and not to MP3 CD (won't work with iTMS songs) or Data CD (tracks are still protected). Then burn as you would any other playlist: create the list of songs, check the songs you want burned, then insert a blank disc and hit Burn CD.

PLEASE HELP! QUICK WAY TO CONVERT ENTIRE PROTECTED AAC TO MP3

Hello,
What is the fastest way to convert about 350 songs to MP3 from the protected AAC format. All songs were purchased from the iTunes Music Store, but I want to burn then all onto a DVD to play in my DVD player. Thank you for your super fast responses!

Well to answer your question, I do not know of any.
But also it is against the terms of use for these forums to discuss ways in which the protection of iTunes purchased songs can be circumvented. Likely, as soon as one of the moderators runs across this thread, it will be locked from further posts.
Sorry,
Patrick

How can I put music from Itunes on my MP3 player?

The format that downloads from Itunes is not working when I try to add music to my MP3 Player instead of my Ipod. Is there a way to add music to an MP3 Player?
I am assuming the format that downloads to ITunes isn't compatable. Any way to change this? Thanks!!!

I have this question as well, I would like to transfer my music from itunes to an SD card so I can listen to it in my new car. Can anyone help?

How do I export one song from iTunes to a .mp3 file?

Sorry for the newbie question. I want to create a single .mp3 file from one of the songs in my iTunes library. How do I do that?
Thanks much.

You can use iTunes to convert any copy protection free songs in your library another format. When you convert a song in iTunes it will be converted to the format that you have set to import your CDs in. Converting creates a second copy of the song in the format you have chosen which gives you the opportunity to either keep or delete the original. If you are using iTunes 8 go to iTunes>Preferences>General and click on Import Settings,, Change your Import format to MP3 Encoder for example. Go back to your library and highlight the songs you want to convert and go to the Advanced menu at the top of your iTunes window and choose "Create MP3 version": iTunes: How to convert a song to a different file format
Click on the MP3 version you've created in iTunes to highlight it and drag it to your desktop to create a copy if you want to use it in another program or put it in another folder.
