  • The attempt to burn a disk failed. An unknown error occurred (4000).

    Whenever I try to burn a CD from iTunes, the burning process starts and continues for about two minutes, cancels automatically and then displays the following statement: "The attempt to burn a disk failed. An unknown error occurred (4000)."
    Several Apple technicians have tried but been unable to assist me. They have pointed me to articles at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93360 and http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93286 but none of the suggested solutions solve the problem.
    1. I have the most recent version of iTunes (6.0.1).
    2. All of the songs that I am trying to burn are authorized. For example, they include the Complete U2 Collection, which I recently downloaded from the iTunes Music Store.
    3. I am not trying to burn a CD with the same Playlist more than seven times.
    4. My CD burner works perfectly fine using other CD burning software, such as Windows Media Player or Roxio Easy Media Creator. However, these programs are not compatible with any of the many pieces of music that I have purchased and downloaded from the iTunes Music Store.
    My hardware configuration is as follows:
    Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (Build 2600)
    HP Pavilion 061 PJ467AA-ABA M1180N
    iTunes 6.0.1.3
    CD Driver 2.0.4.3

    Found aspi32 running.
    Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can restore my ability to burn CDs from iTunes? Thank you very much!

    I am having the same problem. I get an error 4450 - unknown. I have purchased several songs but it appears I will not be able to burn them to CD.

  • Very sick Macbook Pro OS v 10.6.8 - initially running slow so I tried backing up to Time Machine and reloading the OS but the install disk failed. I was able to recover from the Time Machine back up but many applications are not working properly. Help!

    I am also no longer able to back up using Time Machine (backups fail), can't access iPhoto (which was a problem before attempting to reload OS) and I suspect other apps are no longer working. The computer is however running faster in Safari and Mail...any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    If there are any files you can transfer to  a regular storage drive do that first and then disconenct all drives.
    Hold c boot off the 10.6.8 disk and use Disk Utility to Erase with Zero option the hard drive, takes some time, let it complete as it's mapping off any bad or failing sectors.
    Then install 10.6. log in and update to 10.6.8 (important!)
    Now use Migration Assistant to transfer over just your user files, we need to rescue those first out of TimeMachine's EVIL clutches, once you've got that, transfer them to the regular storage drive and disconnect.
    Note: if your 10.6 disk fails, call Apple for a replacement, you need the machine specific version, the 10.6.3 retial doesn't have iLife and only works for machines pre 10.6.3 release, not afterwards. Factory installed 10.6.4 machines and afterwards need machine specific disks.
    Then either:
    Log into the admin/first set up user on the machine and delete the Migrated user, then reboot and use Migration assistant again to TM everything this time
    Or
    Just install all your programs again from fresh sources.
    If your TM drive is really hosed, then you'll need Data Rescue $99 to read the TM files directly and transfer the results to another regular storage drive (not the first one just in case), then pick through the debris and locate your files and transfer them to another drive.
    I don't like TimeMachine, but for newbies it's better than nothing.
    (I prefer cloning my entire OS X parititon instead, I can access it from any computer (Linux, Mac or PC) and I also can boot my Mac from it. I use Carbon Copy Cloner, but that's for later once your all better. )

  • Attempting to copy to the disk failed. An unknown error occurrred (-51).

    I apologize if this issue has been addressed before, but I’m pretty well at the end of my rope here. As mentioned in the title, the message is:
    “Attempting to copy to the disk failed. An unknown error occurred (-51)”
    I have tried resetting my 20G iPod, as well as re-downloading and running the iTunes and iPod installer. If I delete something off of my iPod, unplug it, and then plug it back in again, the song name is there again, but this time it has an exclamation point next to it and it won’t play the song. It plays the rest of the music fine through the computer and through my stereo (I was having some problems with it skipping to the next song in the middle of a song, but I reset it and haven’t had the problem since). I don’t want to have to restore the iPod for the simple fact that I didn’t take the time to backup all my music. That would be a pain. Also, something else I’ve noticed is that I can actually hear its hard drive now kicking in and out when it’s really quiet and plugged into the computer. I hope that I just never noticed that before.
    Without having to restore, is there anything else that I haven’t tried? HELP!!

  • Attempting to copy to disk failed.

    I was using my iPod in cold weather the other night. The battery died and when it warmed back up the screen was in grayscale and it was in "disk mode". I have since restored it several times and am trying to sync it with iTunes. I keep getting an error message "Attempting to copy to disk failed. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation". The iPod was syncing just fine prior to the cold crash. I tried changing the permissions in my iTunes music library and xml file. Help?

    First, reset the iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320
    and restart the Mac with the iPod connected; then try it again.
    If that does not help, connect the iPod to the Mac. With iTunes not running, run Disk Utility. Does the iPod's hard drive appear in the Disk Utility sidebar? If so, select the iPod's DRIVE, not the volume indented under the drive, in the sidebar and go to the Erase tab. Set the format type to +Mac OS Extended (Journaled)+ and erase the iPod's drive.
    If the erase completes successfully, quit Disk Utility and run iTunes. Immediately use the Restore button to install and initialize the iPod's software. You can then set it up and sync it as desired.

  • When synching my IPhone 3Gs I now get a sign "Attempting to copy to Disk failed. The required disk cannot be found." This is after synching a new Iphone 4s.. Help!!

    When attempting to synch my IPhone 3Gs I now get a sign "Attempting to copy to Disk failed. The required disk cannot be found."
    This is after synching a new Iphone 4s and having received some help from Apple Support who assisted with some setting
    changes. Unfortunately this was over a protracted period of time and I cannot recall what was changed. Apparently my 3Gs is out of
    its warranty and so they cannot help me unless I pay £25....
    Can anyone help??

    Well, attempted again today and now my iTunes locks up whenever I select a song! Also, my Volume Mixer on my Windows 7 will not open. Just terrific. Where's my MacBook???????????????

    Hello there, Wyrzezbiator.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers some great steps for the very issue you're describing:
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694#4
    Configure your security software
    Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, or 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.
    Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • ZFS Root Pool Restore of a EFI labelled Disk

    Hi Team
    Please let me know the procedure for backup and restore of a EFI labelled root pool using zfs send/receive.
    Note - original operating system is installed on a t5 server with latest firmware,here the default disk label will be EFl instead of SMI as in the case of earlier firmware version.
    operation system is Solaris 11.1.
    Also need to know how to expand lun which is formatted with EFI labelled disk without losing its data.
    Expecting a positive response soon
    Regards
    Arun

    Hi ,
    What you need to do is very easy here is a procedure that i use:
    1)  make a snapshot off the rpool
           zfs snapshot -r rpool@<snapshotname>
    2) send that snapshot somewhere safe
           zpool destroy rpool/dump<snapshotname>
           zpool destroy rpool/swap@<snapshotname>
           zpool send -R rpool@<snapshotname | gzip > /net/<ipaddress>/<share>/<snapshotname>.gz
    3) Once the above is done you can do the following.
         Boot from DVD make sure you ahe a disk available and start creating the rpool.
         The rpool can be created with EFI or SMI label
         so for example to use EFI label zpool create c0d0
                               to use SMI label zpool create c0d0s0 => make sure that the disk is labeled and that all cylinders are in s0.
    4) create a new boot env
          zpool create rpool <disk>
    5) import the data again.
         gzcat /mnt/<snapshotname>.qz | zfs receive -Fv rpool
          zfs create -V 4G rpool/dump
         zfs create -V 4G rpool/swap
    6) check a list off bootenv
            beadm list
            beadm mount <bootenv> /tmp/mnt
            bootadm install-bootloader -P rpool
           devfsadm -Cn -r /tmp/mnt
           touch /tmp/mnt/reconfigure
           beadm umount <bootenv>
           beadm activate <bootenv>
    This is for Solaris 11 but it also works for Solaris 10 only the last part number 6 is different.
    I need to look this up again but if i remember again you need to set the following for solaris 10 bootfs that needs to be set on the rpool
    If you want i have a script that makes a backup off the rpool towards a nfs share.
    Hope this helps
    Regards
    Filip

  • Disk Failing

    Our Apple Time Capsule has started to report "Disk Failing"
    Can we replace the disk?  Can we fix the disk?
    Help!

    How old is the TC?
    If it is gen1 or gen2 soon after replacing the hard disk you will probably also need to do the power supply.
    Consider any TC more than 3years old.. ebay meat. Erase the disk and flog it off.
    If it is gen3 or gen4 then yes, you can replace the disk.. but check if you have applecare on a current computer and the TC was bought within 2years it is covered.. Apple will replace.
    Otherwise open it and replace the disk.
    http://www.ifixit.com/Device/Apple_Time_Capsule
    Most of the new TC have WD green drives.. cheap.. but not IMHO great. Get Hitachi or Toshiba (same drive).
    Do not use a repaired drive in a situation that requires reliable data storage.. disks are cheap.. data is hugely expensive.

  • Booting from Secondary BE if primary BE disk fails

    Hello,
    I have used separate disks to configure primary and secondary BEs.
    I want to simulate a scenario where the primary BE and active disk fails.
    What are the possible ways to activate and boot from Secondary BE disk?
    Thanks and Regards
    asutosh

    An easy way is to drop to ok prompt and issue a boot command referencing your secondary (mirror?) boot disk. You may want to consider setting up an alias for it whilst you are there, if one has not already been made.
    A 'bad' way to do it is to 'pull the plug' on your primary disk ... ;)

  • Burn a disk failed - internal error

    why do i get a "burn a disk failed - internal error" when attempting to burn a disk?  I have burned 11 consecutive disks w/o a problem.  number 12 wouldn't burn!

    I received the same error message then I noticed that one of the tunes in the playlist that I was trying to burn was listed as being 4 minutes long but was in fact playing for only one minute - there had been an error in its downloading. I removed that tune from the playlist and I was immediately able to burn the playlist. Hope this helps you.
