I can't burn a disc from Itunes without getting error 4280 repeatedly.

I can't burn a disc from Itunes without getting error 4280 repeatedly. I was just able to burn a CD and now can't burn another. Any thoughts? I know my CD burner works as I just made a disc. I have tried changing file type from Audio to MP3 with no luck. Thanks for trying to help me.

Hello Sonni,
It sounds like you are unable to burn a disc with iTunes due to this error code. I would first use the following article to check issues with the type of disc drive:

I can't burn a disc from iTunes download....error 2131

error message 2131 stops me from burning a disc from my recent iTunes download. How can I get around this or fix this ......Windows XP.

The 2131 is usually related to out-of-date firmware on certain types of DVD/CD drives. But we'd better doublecheck that.
Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
... and click "Next".
When you get through to the final screen:
... click the "Copy to Clipboard" button and paste the diagnostics into a reply here.

How to burn MP3 songs from iTunes 11?

I wanted to find out how to burn my iTunes 11 music to a CD in the MP3 format.

I'm assuming that you are familiar with the old iTunes platform but in case you are not (or someone else is not) I'm giving detailed instructions.
You need to create a playlist first. Go to the tiny square in the top left hand corner and select the drop down menu.
Select "New" > "New Playlist"
Give your playlist a name
Then select the music you want to burn by searching for the album, artist genre etc. There is a search bar (w/magnifying glass icon) in the top right corner.
Once the song appears right-click and select "Add to Playlist" > (playlist name)
If you want to add multiple songs, or a whole album select the first song, press and hold the shift key while pressing the arrow down key to highlight all of the songs
Note: If you aren't in full screen view arrow down may not select all songs in which case you will then arrow right.So press and hold "Shift" arrow down, then arrow right.
Right click the highlighted songs and select "Add to Playlist" > (playlist name)
At the top of your iTunes screen (beneath the rectangle) there is a menu going horizontally. It should say : Songs, Albums, Artists, Genres, Playlist, Radio, Match.
Select "Playlist".
There will be a list of your playlist on the left hand side. Select the playlist that you sent your songs(and/or album) to.
Insert a blank disk into your drive.
Select the tiny square drop down menu at the top left hand corner. Select "Show Menu Bar". You should now see a horizontal menu (top left) of your screen saying:
File, Edit, View, Controls, Store, Help
Select "File" > "Burn Playlist to Disc"
A pop up window will appear giving you the option to change the burn settings. It is best to leave said settings alone unless you MUST change them for whatever reason.
Select "Burn"
The notification bar (long rectangle top center of iTunes window) will tell you that your CD had finished burning, Just eject and you're done!
Hope this helps

HT204308 Trying to burn a disc from iTunes

Some of the tunes I want to burn to disc were purchased using an old email address (ISP provider) which I no longer have access to. How can I overcome this please? TIA

No - didn't realise that, as hadn't tried to play them just burn them! Still wants me to sign in with my old email and password (which I have forgotten!)
Jackie,
Even if the email is no longer working, you should be able to reset the password so you can authorize those old tracks to play and burn. Go to this page:

How to Burn 2nd Disc Quickly?

In Encore CS4 I transcoded my HD video and burned a Blu-ray disc all in one step by selecting "Build". It took 27 hours. To burn a 2nd disc I selected "Build" again and it took 3 hours. That's good. I tried it again with another project, but burned the 2nd disc the next day. When I selected "Build" it restarted the 27 hour transcoding process. Is there a different button to select just to burn a disc from a previously transcoded file?

The two ways to cut down on the Build time is to choose a quantity of 2 (or more) initially, and just swap out the additional blank media, or, Burn to Folder, and then use the great, free burning utility, ImgBurn to burn from that. The latter is usually my workflow, and I also test the folder in a DVD/BD software player, prior to committing to a disc.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - if you do the ImgBurn download, scroll down the page, to get past a ton of ads, and to the actual download link (about 2/3 of the way down). That is the price of "free."

Following new motherboard and cd/dvd reconnection, when i try to burn a disc from itunes I now get the message "The Registry settings used by itune drivers for importing and burning CD's

Basically we had a new motherboard fitted, we then found our CD/DVD drive had not been reconnected. After this has been done, when we try to burn a cd from itunes, we get the following message:-
The Registry settings used by itune drivers for importing and burning CD's and DVD's are missing. Reinstall Itunes.
I've removed and reinstalled itunes a few times now and we still have the same issue. HELP please.

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

I have windows 8 and when i try to burn a disc from itunes, it says error 4310. how do i fix this?

i need help!

A 1G iPod Touch cannot be upgraded past iOS 3.1.3. So if an app you have downloaded in iTunes requires a later version of iOS than 3.1.3, I'm afraid you won't be able to sync or use that app on your device unless you upgrade to a newer device that supports a later version of iOS.

How to burn a cd using itune on windows 7

I am so frustrated !!! I used to be able to burn cd's easily on my macbook, but now I have a macbook air which has no cd drive. I'm trying to use a windows laptop to burn one, using itunes and it will not work! I get the 'cancelling burn' message. At first it was 'error 4450'. After I updated to 11.1 now I'm getting 'error 4280'. I tried using windows media player and that failed as well. For itunes I tried updating, I adusted the burn speed as well. How can I succesfully proceed?

Hi s_chuk,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. It sounds like there may be an issue with the disc burner in your computer since Windows Media Player fails as well. I would see this article for more information:

How to burn songs from one itunes account to import into a new itunes acct

I have set up seperate playlists for my children under my itunes account. However, my son is now older and receiving itunes gift cards and we want to set up his own itunes account but don't want to loose the songs we have purchased for him under my itunes account. We want these songs to still be available for him to sync to his ipod so we think we need to burn the songs to a disk so they can then be imported into his new itunes account. He doesn't want to loose track of his itunes money nor do I want him to be able to purchase songs using my itunes acct credit card info without my knowledge, therefore, we think we need to set up a new itunes account for his personal use. Any guidance would be appreciated!

Not necessary. If you want to copy song files to a new computer, copy them to a USB flash drive, and then from the flash drive to the new computer.

He should definitely have his own iTunes library, be it on the shared computer or on his own computer. As for a separate account in the iTunes Store, that is really up to you, depending how the family shares.

How to burn DVD disc of iMovie playable on Blueray

For years I have been easily creating movies with my vacation photos, adding effects, music, transitions and titles, etc. on my PC using Windows software and then burning the movie to a blank DVD+R disc which has always been playable on every DVD and Blue Ray player that I have tried (mine is a Panasonic model BD35). I have recently made a transition to a Mac (the one with 27" screen and Yosemite system) and have learned how to use iMovie and, after much trial and error, have used free software, called "burn" to make a DVD that only plays on an older LG DVD player (model LDA 830) - however, the disc is "unsupportable " on my Blue Ray player (I also used a trial version of "Aimer", with the same result). After spending several hours with an Apple support expert in their iMovie Department, I tried a slightly different method (that he had discovered from a customer with the same issue) using only the Apple DVD/CD external burner and whatever system it has for burning discs. For me, this effort resulted in a disc that is "unsupported" on my BlueRay player and "error" on my DVD player. The Apple expert suggested getting Apple TV - yeah, buy more Apple stuff and that solves everything! This issue has been a popular one with Apple computers and so I am amazed that it has not found an elegant solution by now. This should not require an Einstein to achieve the result desired by many customers (as opposed to whatever result Apple is aiming at), but maybe there is one out there who can also communicate the solution in easy to understand steps? Help, please?!?

I am beginning to think that I should have stuck to user-friendly Windows.
As Barney-15E noted, you can still purchase and use the boxed versions of iLife with Yosemite. Pretty cheap at only $30 - $35. It has iMovie to create your video sequence, and iDVD to author the disks from what you build in iMovie.
Ruthless people with cold blood coursing through their veins run Apple - probably descendants of the fictional Mr. Potter from "It's a Wonderful Life"! Ahhhh.. There, that feels better.
I like it!
Unfortunately, the reality is DVD and Blu-ray is heading the way of floppy disks. Here's an interesting headline I ran across today. No Surprise: DVD Sales Plunged Over 40 Percent Last Year. Thing is, that statement was from 2011, marking a 40% drop from 2010 with sales of 47 billion. Sound like a lot? Not compared to how far the medium has fallen in just three more years. Only 12.2 billion in 2014.
Apple completely dropped DVD Studio Pro, and Apple isn't the only one to blame. Adobe also dropped all further development of Encore, it's DVD and Blu-ray authoring app. CS6 was the last version of that we'll ever see. You can still get it if you have the CC subscription. You choose to install an older version of Premiere Pro. It then installs Premiere Pro CS6 and Encore CS6. You then uninstall Premiere Pro CS6 since you don't need it; you already have Premiere Pro CC.
The mistake the industry is making is that not everyone in the world has access to high speed Internet. Sure, I can "purchase" my movies from Amazon and other online sources, but I can only watch my purchased movies or shows if a) I have Internet access, and b) it's fast enough where I am at the time to stream it. There is no such problem with disks. Take them with you and watch them anywhere. The only fault they have is either losing the disk, or damaging it.
