My CD burner will not burn CD-R disks

I keep inserting a CD into my disk burn and I get an error message telling me
The disc can’t be burned because an unexpected error occurred (error code 0x8002006E).
Any solution to fix this please.

This is funny. Not your situation, but as I was trying to help someone else, I came across this:
"To check the size of the normally invisible /Volumes directory on the active startup volume, open a new Finder window. Select the startup volume in the list at the left, then choose column view (the one at the right of the three views). From the Finder’s Go menu, choose Go to Folder, and paste in:
/Volumes
The /Volumes directory becomes visible in the Finder; find its size by selecting it and typing Command I. My /Volumes directory is reported to be 12K.
Try to determine where your various caches are. There may be files left over from burning CDs or DVDs. The One Step DVD option in iDVD has been reported to leave files in the directory /private/tmp... "
I wonder if that's where your temporary file went. I hope this doesn't confuse you more. But remember I was talking about how if you burn a CD and it doesn't go through all the way, the burn file will stay around?
See if you can solve it with that.

  • The license file will not be written to disk...

    I keep having to write the serial number and user information when I run Final Cut Pro and any other Final Cut Studio apps.
    It says: The license file will not be written to disk because the user does not have enough privileges.
    So everytime I open a final cut studio program I am asked for this information again before running.
    This is REALY annoying. I tried reinstalling, and it wouldn't help.

    Click here and follow the instructions.

  • Time Machine will NOT work with Airport Disks!

    It looks like Time Machine will not work with Airport Disks after all. All references to Airport have been removed from the Time Machine page:
    http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/timemachine.html
    It also specifically says: "You can designate just about any HFS+ formatted FireWire or USB drive connected to a Mac as a Time Machine backup drive. Time Machine can also back up to another Mac running Leopard with Personal File Sharing, Leopard Server, or Xsan storage devices."
    Surely, they would have included the Airport Extreme Base Station in this list if it was supported.
    I really hope there will be another firmware update for the AEBS which will bring compatibility with Time Machine, because Time Machine was the only reason for me to buy an AEBS. (I only use it as a small backup server, I don't even have wireless networking enabled. There were other solutions, e.g. from Synology, which are faster and more reliable than AEBS disk sharing, but Synology stated their network drives would not be compatible with Time Machine.)

    Here's how you can potentially use your AirDisk with TimeMachine (beware that YMMV), but it should work as it works with every other "unsupported" device.
    1) Mount your AirDisk so it appears on your Mac
    2) Open Terminal.app
    3) change directories to the AirDisk's root folder located in "/Volumes"
    ie: cd "/Volumes/AirDisk Name"
    4) execute this command to "bless" the drive to be used with time machine:
    touch .com.apple.timemachine.supported
    5) Start TimeMachine and if all went well, it should recognize your AirDisk drive and use it for TM.
    This should also work on NFS shares, SMB shares, AFP shares, basically anything. It has worked up until the last developer seed, so unless they yanked this at the last minute, it should still work.
    Now, the reason why Apple removed this feature may be due to the unreliability of the AirDisk, so be cautious.

  • My new macbook pro will not read a pc disk

    A DVD-r generated on a PC of unknown type and model was given to me. My Mac will not read it, but other PCs will. I am in the wilderness here physically and I really need to read this disk. My MBP is fully up to date with OS 10.6.8 The internal drive can read other DVDs just fine. I insert the DVD and my computer reads it as blank. Can you help? I thought MBPs could read anything. Silly me

    Chances are that the disc was burned without finalizing it on the PC, which is essential for a Mac to be able to read it. If that wasn't done, there's no way you can access its contents. This is not a result of the machine on which it was burned, it's a user error. Request another copy of the disc that has been finalized properly.

  • Intel Xserve will NOT boot from hard disk drive

    I have two Intel Xserves 2.0 QC machines
    I have tried to re-install version 10.4.11 OS (don't ask) onto a Hard disk drive that is in a Disk drive caddy and inserted in the machine.
    When booting from The installation DVD media
    The disk is seen by the "Disk Utility" (the disk is partitioned as GUID boot) and the installation proceeds to the disk.
    Once the first pass of the installation is complete and the system reboots, the system shows the folder and ? mark.
    If I boot and hold "ALT" key to view all avaialble boot options the Hard Disk Drive does NOT appear as valid boot disk.
    It does show, the still inserted Installation DVD.
    I CAN boot from an external firewire drive and the Hard disk drive is visible to the OS once logged in.
    I have tried different caddy postions (left, middle and right)
    I have tried bona fide Apple supplied Disk drives
    I have tried various different caddies
    I have tried installing Operating System 10.5.*  and  10.6.8 server
    I have run SMC reset and system reset
    But still I cannot boot off from any Hard Disk Drive inserted in a caddy at the front of the system.
    Has anyone seen this behaviour?
    Is it fixable?
    Do I have replace something like the Hard Disk Drive back plane circuit board? Or even the main logic board?
    I have now run out of ideas and cannot find any help in discussions or just googling.
    ANY help would be very appreciated
    Regards
    Tony

    Antonio Hi !
    QC = Quad core  or  QX as it is written on the "pull out" serial number tab at rear of system
    I have 3 late 2006 Intel xserves
    On my intial posting I declared 2 were 2.0 machines - when I was trying to be concise
    2 of the macines are 2.66 systems and 1 is 2.0 system - all are QX machines
    the 2.0 and 1 of the 2.66 will NOT boot from the ADM and disk inside the system - whereas the other 2.66 system will.
    I have many different Caddies and these have different product/model number labels
    603-9965
    603-9545
    603-9796
    these are marked "intel SATA"
    The 80Gb was only one of the drives tested - I have used Seagate 400Gb 750Gb and 1Tb  -  all of which have been used in systems at one time or another
    and as I said the drives ARE visible once the operating system (either installation DVD or external firewire are booted from) - they are just NOT visible when the system is searching for boot media.
    Thanks for the guide - I will look through that and continue to try and find an answer

  • Mac Version of PS6 Will Not Launch if Scratch Disk is Not Set to Boot Drive

    Mac OS 10.8.2. PS6 will not launch unless the boot drive is set as the number one option for the scratch disk. Even if I choose another internal drive and set it as the number one option for PS6 it will not launch. Is there any kind of work around for this? My boot drive is only a 120GB SSD so I don't want to use it as the main scratch disk.

    Curt good idea but no go. This is a fresh install of PSCS6. I ran the Apple Disk Utility three times and Disk Warrior on the boot drive. If I leave the Scratch Disk set to the boot drive no issues, only if I change the order of the scratch disk or if I do not have the boot drive selected as a possible option for the scratch disk.
    Where is the 'ignor ownership' option found? I did a 'Get Info' and I don't see it in that window.

  • Macbook pro will not restart after failed disk repair

    This has happened twice in one week.
    A routine disk verify was performed and returned errors.  I reboot into the recovery drive and run disk utility.  To validate the first finding, I run disk verify again. Same failure.  Then I run repair disk.  Disk repair fails. After this, the system will not boot.  Now, even the disk utility 'sees' the main particitian, but it's grayed out.  when i go to retore Lion, the main partition is not seen at all. 
    The kicker is that two different hard drives are involved.  The first is a 500 gb Western Digital and the second is a 750 gb seagate. System is a mid-2009 MBP with 8gb ram. 
    I performed a full system backup this weekend but do not have it with me and will not have access to it until this weekend.  Any help out there?  Or am I just screwed?

    Oh by the way, a mid-2009 MacBook Pro would not have 10.4.6.   In fact it might not even have 10.6.4.   10.6.4 didn't get prebundled until June 15, 2010.   So where you get 10.4.6 on your signature, that confused people as to what you really have.

  • Macbook Pro will not load OS and will not boot from Install Disk

    When I try to turn on my macbook pro it goes to the gray logo screen with the spinning gear however it does not progress from there and then after several minutes it proceeds to restart itself and the same process repeats itself. I have tried to boot into single user mode with success and have run /sbin/fsck -fy and that has returned that the volume appears to be ok. However, when I hit reboot it returns to the same process of the gray screen and spinning gear to black screen which repeats. When I boot into verbose mode it progresses to AppleYukon2: RxRingSize <= 1024, TxRingSize 256, RXMAXLE 1024, TXMAXLE 768, STMAXLE 3328 then it stalls for several minutes and then it shows continuing
    synchronizing disks... Killing processes
    then it says some other stuff to fast to read.
    When I try to boot from the install disk it will not boot from holding the c key it goes through the same aforementioned cycle. When using option to boot I can see the Disk then when I select it the cycle happens again.
    Also I have XP installed and I am able to boot into that successfully. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Not sure if I left anything out
    -bryce

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Do you have multiple Accounts defined on that system? The last time you successfully were running, did you run from the Account with Administrator privileges?
    Do you have another computer from which you could boot and connect the Macbook Pro in Target Disk Mode to take a look at the drive from your working machine? Perhaps you can run Disk Utility from the working machine and point to the hard disk on the failing Macbook Pro.

  • Disk drive will not click or accept disks ?

    Disk drive will not click or accept cd's or DVD's

    What I did was I kept putting it in until it accepted it. I don't know if yours will do this. With any disc, my iMac and my mom's MBP accepted discs after about 20 tries.

    If you haven't already run disk cleanup and be sure you get the temp folder as well.
    Now defrag the drive.
    Also, is your drive formatted in FAT 32?
    If you have XP you can switch it to NTFS without endangering your data.
    Now try again.

  • Applications will not launch and install disk will not mount

    Just recently my applications have taken a turn to not wanting to launch. These include anything from Dashboard to the Microsoft Office Suite. It also includes anything that is downloaded form the internet, like the World of Warcraft download client. Long story short, the errors that I constantly get are
    System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.Framework/versions/A/Frameworks/Co reGraphics.Framework/versions/A/CoreGraphics
    I figured that with it being a system library issue and the Repair Disk Permissions has been completely useless, that a complete restore would be in order. And I was wrong. For some reason my Genuine 13-inch MacBook Pro Mac OS X Install DVD will not mount. Meaning I out the DVD in said drive and it will attempt to mount but will eventually give up and eject itself. I can load any other cd/DVD into my drive and it will mount without a problem.
    Everything is up to date software wise.

  • Finder will not detect hard drive; disk utility will

    Finder will not detect my hard drive.  Disk utility will, however, it will not eject the harddrive from the computer.  Any help?
    I have a lot of files on it, so I would not be happy if they cannot be retrieved.  It has been working for the past 2(?) years without much issue.

    In Disk Utility, select the drive and click Repair Disk. If any errors are displayed, rerun Repair Disk until no errors occur.
    You can't run repair disk while booted from the disk to be repaired.
    Boot from Recovery, then run Repair Disk.

  • Drivers will not install from original disk

    Ok, so i have a early 2008 MBP, which i just installed Boot Camp on. After a tedious install of windows, I got it to work, now to have the drivers get messed up. What happens is it will start installing the Drivers and then usually (it stops at different times) will get to the audio drivers before it just spins the disk for about a second then stops, then spins it again, and repeats this process infinitely or until I turn off the computer. The disk will not eject, and boot camp install will not end. Can you help me get past this, because I really would love to finish the install! As i said the farthest it has ever gotten is the Audio drivers which is where it usually stops but sometimes it will stop earlier than that, but Audio is the most problematic because it has never been able to go past that.

    Manish, thanks for your help.
    Tried similar in Windows 7 with no effect. Also tried Adobe Creative Suite cleaner tool via http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html It installs ok on my laptop, so doesn't appear to be a location issue, but will not install on my workstation. Manual installation of AAM completes but after typing in user/pass it says 'download error, contact customer service'. Photoshop CS6 beta installed and functioned ok and I had CS4. Tried uninstalling both, same issues. Adobe Lightroom 3.6 is still installed and functions.
    I also tried someone's suggestion of installing the trial of something so it would install the Akamai Netsession download manager. This completes and when I launch the AdobeApplicationManager.exe I can see it spawn Netsession which then hangs and can be killed initially, but zombies for a while ( cannot be killed ). Packet trace ( https://twitter.com/#!/DaSpadeR/status/201295684022960128 ) appears to show initial handshake and then nothing.  -John Spade

  • New iMac will not boot, even from disk and in Safe Mode

    I'm stuck on the grey spinny screen.
    Here's what happened:
    I tried to share my Macintosh HD on my network, then, when it was finished, a whole bunch of errors popped up saying that I would have to reinstall. So I restarted, now it chimes and boots to the grey screen and is stuck there. I tried to boot from the CD, but it didn't work, I also tried to use the reinstall disk which didn't work either.
