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 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.

  • Trying to sync iPhone 4 with itunes and get an error message PLEASE help

    I am currently using and iPhone 4. This morning I had synced my iPhone with itunes and it was working fine. I came home and wanted to add some music and such to it and all of a sudden i will plug it in to itunes and i,t looks like its going gets to step 2 of 6 (which is the back up process) and then an error message comes up saying itunes has stopped working, my only option to do is exit the window..
    Any ideas why this would be the case? its really frustrating me. I am also not the most computer savvy.
    Thanks

    Try reinstalling iTunes  http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    If that doesn't help, if you are using a Windows based computer, could be your anti virus software or your firewall that's preventing the sync.

  • Tried to install new version of itunes and getting r6034 error code

    This morning I tried to download and install iTunes Version 11.1.4.  I'm getting a R6034 error code RUNTIME ERROR when I go to the "install" phase.  I've already de-installed my old version so I know I've not got any files kicking around.  I even went as far as purchsing PC CLEANER PRO to try to fix the R6034 error code and it's not solving it.  I have the new version sitting in download mode but I'm not able to install it. I get part way through the install and the error code window pops up again.  Any suggestions?

    The third party cleaner may have been a bad move... It might make the following harder.
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • 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.

  • 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 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:
