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:

Im trying to burn a cd from itunes, I keep getting a message that says "the attempt to burn a CD failed because of a medium write error" any help would be appreciated

hello, I'm trying to burn a playlist from itunes to a cd, but I keep getting a message saying "the attempt to burn a CD failed because of a medium write error" can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong. I'm not so tech savvy so any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

I'm not familiar with this error, but check the following:
-Is your disc a CD or a DVD? You want a CD, not a DVD.
-Is the CD blank? You'll want a blank one.
-Maybe the disc is scratched and cannot be used. Try another CD.
-Maybe your disc burner is broken. If you have another, try it.

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The 2131 is usually related to out-of-date firmware on certain types of DVD/CD drives.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.

I am trying to burn a cd from itunes and I keep getting error code 4280. I cant even burn cd that old cds that I loaded to my library.

I keep getting error code 4280 when trying to burn a cd from downloaded itunes songs. I can't even burn a cd from my own cds that I loaded to my library. Is there a fix for this?

I have Windows 7 on a Dell. Open and play iTunes in the compatability mode and use Windows XP (service pack 2). Disregard any messsages to disable the compability mode. This has worked for me. I have also reinstalled iTunes and played with burn speeds etc. These ideas did not work. Compatability mode works.

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.)

Receiving "internal error" when trying to burn mp3 disc from playlist

I'm trying to burn an mp3 disc from a playlist that I've created. Unfortunately, I keep getting an error. I'm currently running iTunes 11.0.2 on my iMac which is currently running 10.8.3. I've done this many times before, and this is the first that I've had this problem. Here's the error I keep getting:
The attempt to burn a disc failed. An internal error occured.
If you want to retry the current failed burn, click on Retry. If you want to go to the next disc burn, click on Next. Otherwise click on Cancel.
Here's how it goes down:
I've created a very long playlist which will require the use of multiple discs.
I right-click on the playlist and select to burn the playlist to disc.
I then get the usual burn settings pop-up menu where I select the "MP3 CD" format with a preferred speed of "Maximum Possible"
Note: Since experiencing this error, I have tried varried speeds ranging from 8x to 24x; I still get the error.
Note Also: I have tried selecting "Audio CD" instead, and the playlist will burn and the error does not appear. This is not an option I want to go with, however, because of the length of the playlist — it would take, like, 25 discs...
For a moment iTunes will read the disc, then ask permission for the playlist to be split across multiple discs. I say "ok".
At this point, iTunes will say that it is initiallizing for about a split second then immediately say it's finalizing and spit out the disc. This is when the error pops up.If I select to "Retry", it doesn't retry to burn; it just saves a .txt file to my desktop that is a copy of the error message. There's no error code/number or anything, though - just the exact same message. "Cancel" and "Next" seem to behave correctly, though.
I have tried repairing disk permissions and restarting my computer. I've also tried using different brands of CDs: Memorex CD-R and Innovera CD-R. The error persists.
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I tried to burn a cd from itunes and get an error 4020

I have tried multiple times to burn the cd from a playlist in itunes and keep getting an error. I have reinstalled and continue to get the same error. I think it is a corrupted file that I purchased from itunes, but I'm not sure.

I also get this error message on itunes.
I am using Windows Vista. My firmware is totally up to date as is my itunes.
Hopefully Apple can pull their finger out and give us a solution. I haven't been able to burn discs for a long time. Makes me wonder why I have invested in Apple products.

I keep getting error code 4450 when I'm trying to burn a CD from itunes. It keeps my CD and won't eject it and says "cancelling burn" forever then itunes locks up and my cd is ruined and NO songs on it.

i can't burn cd's in iTunes anymore. I get error code 4450 when I'm trying to burn a playlist. Songs from my own cd's, or bought in iTunes (have not burned 7x's as I can't BURN any cd's at all!), Then my cd gets stuck in the drive. and it says "cancelling burn" forever and then itunes freezes up. I have a Dell with Windows 7.
-I've slowed down the burn as slow as it can go
-I have bought 3 different brands of cd's
-i have the latest version of iTunes.
Can someone help me?

TS1436 I've now wasted 4 hours of my life trying to burn Audio CDs from iTunes. I can burn from other programs but not iTunes. It pretends it's doing it but when it's finished the disk is blank. It's not burned a thing.

I've also tried different speeds. The CD-R says x52 but I've tried different speeds but that makes no difference.

I know I'm a mug but I was in a mood where I didn't want to be beaten and read all these tips on line and none of them worked. I've given up now as it's 1AM my time.
Yes it seems most of my songs only iTunes handles. I've tried opening them in Media Player and burning an audio CD from there but there's only a very small selection of my albums/songs and just my luck very few of those I'm trying to burn.

HT1152 Error 4310 when trying to burn a playlist from iTunes.

I have done all the troubleshooting set forth in the prior discussions, including burning the same playlist via Windows a Media Player. But still no luck burning it from iTunes. I am using Windows 8. It seems that may be the problem. If there is some compatibility issue with Windows 8 and iTunes then Apple needs to be aware. Please fix. I need this feature and would prefer not to have to keep creating the same playlists in a Windows Media Player to be able to burn them.

Hello, I gave up on Win 8, the only worse OS than OSX 10.7 or 10.9, but might try reposting over here!
