I can't burn a cd from Itunes.

I can't burn a cd from Itunes....If I try to burn a playlist it says i need multiple cd's and I only have 5 songs on that playlist. If I try to burn it anyway it doesn't do anything.

BTW have tried two kinds of disks, one kind of which I have a burned playlist from last year so I don't think it is the disks.

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:
Burning disc in iTunes for Windows using a Sony CD-RW/DVD CRX830E model drive fails with 4280 error
http://support.apple.com/kb/ta38101
If this is not the case, use the following article to help troubleshoot the issue:

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The 2131 is usually related to out-of-date firmware on certain types of DVD/CD drives.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

Thanks in advance for your help.

Try changing the song format from AAC to MP3 (MPEG).
1. Go to iTunes preferences ---> General ---> Import Settings--->Import Using: MP3 Encoder.
2. Highlight all of the songs you want to burn. Once all are highlighted, go up to Advanced tab and click "Create mp3 version". This will create mp3 versions of each of the highlighted songs. This DOESN'T override the current AAC version, it creates a new version, which is directly beneath the AAC version (at least for me).
3. Try burning just the MP3 versions onto a disc. When prompted as to what kind of disc you are burning, make sure you change it from Audio to MP3. I burned my a 2X speed.
I hope this helps. I'm replying because I was on this site because I JUST had this issue and fixed it the same way. So, it worked for me, and I hope it works for you. Good luck, mate.

Can't burn a disc from itunes.

I am trying to copy an album I have bought, for use in my car but get the message ' Burner software missing'
I have done all updates but can't work out what to do next.

Kathy, to answer that question we would need to know more about your hardware and software (processor, MacOS Version)- but perhaps the problem is that you are trying to burn on a CD that is not compatible with your internal drive or are using an external burner without the proper driver installed.
If you are using your internal drive, then check the kind of CDs you are using and try a different brand.
If you are using an external burner, you probably need to reinstall or upgrade the driver software.
To find out, which CDs you can burn with your internal CD/DVD drive click on the -menu in the upper left corner of the screen and open the "About" panel:
In the About-panel click "More Info" and (in Lion) click: "System Report "and inspect the Hardware details of your Mac. In the "Hardware" section of the System Report look for "Disk Burning" and you will know what kind of CDs (-R, -RW)you need to buy to be able to burn them.

Can't burn cd's from iTunes

Ever since I installed iTunes in my new computer, I'm unable to burn cd's. I have a Lite-on cd/dvd drive. If I open preferences- burning, instead of the make/model of the drive it says "no supported burners found" (approximately). I have re-installed iTunes, installed the newest version of iTunes, and updated my drive's firmware twice. I also have all the current Windows Updates for my computer. Any ideas on what this might be?
thanks.

Why I can't burn music CD from iTunes.

I need an answer, as soon as possible,
thank you.

Well, I just updated my OS and iTunes and still the same problem persists. Nothing happens with the iTunes progress bar and I still must force quit to get the CD out. What to try now?

After buying and downloading videos from itunes, how can I burn them to a DVD that will play in a standard DVD player? I have tried burning the playlist from itunes, and the disc would not play in anything I put it into.

Out of excitement, I bought both seasons of the tv show "Sym Bionic Titan" from the itunes store, since I can't find it anywhere else, in hopes of being able to burn them to dvds and watch them. When I burned the disc from itunes, it would not play in any player I put it in. Not my dvd player, not my ps3, nothing. So the only place I can watch the show is on my computer, which is definitely not what I had in mind when I purchased it. Is there a way to burn the videos to a dvd that will play in a dvd player?

Unfortunately, the recording & movie industry does not respect the rights of the people who make them money, and thus you can only use the paid-for content in ways they see fit. Even if I lived in a bunker where no one else could possibly see the movie I paid for, therefor I'm not 'sharing it illegally', I would still not be allowed in a blue moon to copy that movie to DVD for TV viewing. Someone will tell you to get an AppleTV. How about Apple give us one for free? Until this changes, people wanting to use their content in multiple locations will continue to download music & movies via torrents, legally or illegally.

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?

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.

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.
