I get and error when trying to burn a audio CD

I am tring to burn an audio cd of something I created in Final cut pro x and when I put the files in itunes and select burn to disc it spits out the disc and says "unknown error occured (-50)".  I tried using .wav and .aiff no luck with either.  I already searched the forum for this problem and didn't find any thing that worked.

Tried restarting your computer?
Error -50 is a generic "communications" error message which means just about anything.  It could really be a communication error with  your optical drive (loose cable, bad drive, bad controller, etc.), or an issue with your hard drive (connection, formatting, a whole list of anything else you can imagine).  It could also be a host of non-obvious communications.
The place to start is to keep things as simple as possible and try to test individual links in the burning process.  Can you burn outside of iTunes?  Have you tried a slower burn speed?  (Some utilities let you turn off the laser while test burning so you don't use up a lot of discs.)

  • I keep getting encoding errors when trying to burn a disc

    I created an iphoto slideshow and then shared it to idvd.
    every time that i try and burn to a dvd it goes for about 4 to 5 hours and then gives me " there was an encoding error"
    I checked the encoding settings and made sure to set it to just high quality but same issue occurs
    Any ideas?

    Hi
    A. try to split the process into two parts
    • Encoding part
    • Burning part
    by - instead of press burn key - go up to File and down to
    • Save as a DiskImage
    • then burn this .img file with Disk Util tool
    B. What did the Error Messages read ?
    Very helpful to get this info - to be able to give any true help at all. There are zillions of things to guess.

  • "Medium Write Error" when trying to burn a CD!!!!

    I keep getting a Medium write error when trying to burn an audio cd using ITunes. I already tried switching out cheap CD-R's for high quality ones and the same thing happens. I also can't burn a picture CD using finder because another error message pops up so i don't know what it could be... Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Could be an issue with the drive itself, especially if you have one of the Matshita drives installed in many Macbook Pro which are reported to be 'krappy' drives. See here for more info...

  • I keep getting a 4000 error when trying to burn discs....only been since the update....Help

    Ever since the Itunes update, I keep getting an 4000 error when trying to burn my music to disc.  How do I fix this?

    Zachy,
    It goes something like this...
    Put your new drive in the enclosure. Use Disk Utility to format it, etc. I'd give it a slightly different name than the original. Let's say you have Old Disk and New Disk as your drive names. Use Carbon Copy Cloner to copy Old Disk to New Disk. Now you should have an exact copy, which you can test by rebooting and holding down the Option key. Choose New Disk from the list and let it boot, make sure all is well.
    Shut down and physically swap the drives. Take Old Disk and put it in the enclosure. Now your system has a new disk with a lot more space and you can reformat your old disk and just use it for large files or whatever.

    That's definitely enough to start.
    It sure seems like it should work...and then I saw that you're using a router. It could very well be that the router is the weak link here.
    Instead connecting to your network router, try using a direct USB connection from your MBP. If that doesn't work, you read this post, which may be relevant to your problem:

  • Why do I get this error when trying to use my bluetooth headset as a listening device? There was an error connecting to your audio device. Make sure it is turned on and in range. The audio portion of the program you were using may have to be restarted.

    I may have already resolved this issue buy removing the device from my computer and re-pairing it. It is currently working just fine.

  • HT1338 i've been getting an error when trying to play online games saying that i need to have the browser in 32 - bit mode. my browser is in 32 - bit mode but the msg keeps coming up and not running the game

    i've been getting an error when trying to play online games saying that i need to have the browser in 32 - bit mode. my browser is in 32 - bit mode but the msg keeps coming up and not running the game

    I dunno, that doesn't make any sense to me.
    I just shut down and rebooted into the SnowLeopard partition and took a peek at the preference panes.  There are only 3 that run in 32 bit only.  They are all 3rd party, and none of the prefpanes are non Intel.  Like I said, I have never owned a PPC machine.  Anyhow, SnowLeopard doesn't even have an iCloud prefpane, or a combined mail, contacts, and calenders prefpane, and the ML security and privacy prefpane is all new as well.  The software update prefpane is Intel and 64 bit in both SnowLeopard and Lion.
    As to the triple boot, unless I'm totally mistaken, what I have here is, in essence, 3 seperate descrete computers in one box.  All using the same hardware. but one at a time.  I wouldn't know how to get more than one running at the same time, without using a virtual machine, even if I wanted to.  (Which I don't)  I do sometimes transfer files from one to another using the shared folder, but other than that, they do not interact.  How could ML system preferences be trying to launch prefpanes from a totally different machine?

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.
