I'm trying to burn a CD from Elements11 and each time I do,m my DVD player rejects the media.

I've spent 3 days putting together a tribute to my father for his funeral tomorrow and I'm trying to create a CD of pictures with music. It plays fine on my computer but when I burn a CD (following the instructions) my DVD player refuses to play. I've now got 5 junk CD's. I tried a blank DVD but Elements 11 does recognize it, it wants a CD-R. any suggestions?

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.

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

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 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.

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.

On iMac running OS 10.6.7, tried ver 4 3x's and each time had to revert back to older version since can't import bookmarks, etc. Now I can't revert back to older version! Help!

Using iMac running OS 10.6.7. I've tried Beta ver 4 before (2x's) and each time I had to revert to older version since I was unable to import all my bookmarks, etc. after following all the right steps. I have them saved as HTML and json files. Neither works in ver 4 now. I am stuck. I've Googled fixes, but now need your help to resolve this incessant problem.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

If they were songs you purchased from itunes, try redownloading them from your purchases...
if that doednt work, make sure the optuon to copy files to itunes media folder is checked in settings, then find and download from the net. and re-add them to your library

Trying to burn a cd from my itunes playlist - during finalising it fails with error 4000, trying to burn a cd from my itunes playlist - during finalising it fails with error 4000

When trying to burn a cd from my playlist it get to the finalising process and after quite some time ejects the cd with a "error 4000" message.
So here is what I have done to date:
- changed from max to 8x
- control panels, itune, repair
- changed cd
- checked cd text
- unchecked cd text
- updated itunes & quick times
- sat in despair
Any suggestions would be great. I'm not really an expert with technology so have researched and read a myriad of advice but nothing to date has helped. I'm using windows professional 2007.

HT203164 Error trying to burn a CD from an iTunes playlist - files not found on hard drive??

I have a new computer with Windows 8 Home Premium. Before the old computer crashed, I had backed up all my iTunes Media in the cloud. I had also purchased a soundtrack album from the iTunes store and put the songs into a playlist. All media was matched with the new computer, and the new computer was authorized by me in iTunes, so all my previous media shows up in iTunes on the new computer. The only symbol next to the song titles in iTunes for all my songs is a picture of a tiny cloud.
When I play the songs in the playlist from the new computer in iTunes, they all play just fine. However, when I try to burn a CD with the songs in the playlist, I get this error message (it has no number associated with it): The song "[name of song]" could not be burned because the file cannot be found on the computer hard drive. I tried burning CD's from any other playlist but was not able to burn a CD from ANY playlist; I get the same error message no matter what I try to do. I would really like to be able burn CD's from iTunes, because that's what plays in my car. Hooking up an iPod in the car does play music, but it is faded and of bad quality (my car is an '05 model).
Does anyone have any ideas on what is wrong here and how I can fix it so burning CD's in iTunes will again be an option? I don't burn many CD's but would really like to be able to do so. The version of iTunes I have is 11, all the iTunes files are updated, and the CD drive is working fine, I am able to play CD's in iTunes from it and burn other songs to it using another media player. I am also using top-quality new blank CD's, and when trying to burn a CD from a playlist, I select Audio CD with 2 seconds for the gap between songs, and the album text, then I select Burn. I've tried selecting other options in turn, but get the same error message.
Thank you in advance to anyone who can help with this issue - it seems I am the only one having it.

I actually solved this problem myself. I discovered, while playing around with the new iTunes, that clicking on PLAYLISTS on the menu bar shows the playlists that I have created on the left side of the window (like the old iTunes used to do by default). I scrolled down to the playlist I wanted to burn to a CD, right-clicked on it, and a menu came up. I selected DOWNLOAD....this downloads my playlist songs from the cloud to my computer hard drive. After that, the little "cloud pictures" next to my songs disappeared, and I was able to burn the CD with no problems.
I hope this helps someone else....I was quite lost for a while. Which is amazing, considering how user-friendly most Apple products have historically been.

Trying to burn a playlist in itunes and i get this message at the end 'The attempt to burn a disc failed. An nknown error occurred (4450)'. This is with a new Dell laptop running windows 8. The playlist was 17 songs from cd's and itunes. Any ideas?

try this...
This is how I managed to fix the problem...and I hope this helps others in the similar situation.
I tried with another program..latest version of Nero, and this was also stopping at the 'initialising' stage. I was now lost! I thought the last resort is to give Evesham (My PC manufacturer) a buzz. They were very helpfull. Basically go into 'Control Panel', 'System', and click on the Hardware tab, then 'Device Manager'. Uninstall everything in the DVD/CDRom Drives. Then uninstall everything under the catagory IDE ATA/Atapi disk controllers. This is where my problem was, as I only had one IDE channel here. You should have 4 or 5! Reboot your machine, and everything will automatically re-load. I tried burning using Nero and it worked. Then the big test was iTunes. It worked 1st time!
I asked why the IDE channels have dissappearred, and he said sometimes uninstalling Programmes occasionally removes them.
I hope this will help others who are having problems to burn stuff on iTunes.

I am trying to burn a cd from my playlist but after inserting my disc I do not get (burn playlist to disc) from drop down menu

I am trying to burn a cd from my playlist but after inserting my disc I do not get( burn playlist to disc) from drop down menu?

Hollie,
Do things in the following order:
Make the playlist you are going to burn, and open it.
Have the blank CD-R handy.
Use the command File > Burn Playlist to Disc.
When it asks you to insert a blank disc, do so.
