My itunes will not burn cd. telling me new burning software added may cause this

I recently had Windows Vista put on my computer. I had Roxio put on it also. I tunes will not burn my playlist because of this. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing itunes . this does not correct the problem. I tuunes is telling me there is no disc burner found.

Hello bacovino,
From what you describe it sounds like you are getting this error message when trying to burn a CD in iTunes even after uninstalling the iTunes application:
"Warning! The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes."
I recommend uninstalling not only iTunes but its associated softwares as well, as outlined in the following article:
iTunes for Windows: "Registry settings" warning when opening iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3299
iTunes installs a device filter which helps it work with your optical drive. If this device filter is missing, you will see the message mentioned above. To resolve this issue, follow the steps below to reinstall iTunes and put the device filter back in place:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
If the issue persists after re installing iTunes again, there is additional troubleshooting in the article that involves installing the device filter in Windows, which it walks you through.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

  • Somehow my itunes started a new library and I lost my old library. Itunes will not allow me to sync new music to my ipod without deleting stored music from ipod. How can I start using this new library and sync the new music without losing existing music.

    Somehow my Itunes started a new music library and I lost the old library.  Itunes will not allow me to sync new music from my computer to my Ipod because it is now in a different library. Itunes wants to delete all my Ipod music before sync any new music. How do I work around this. I think this happened during Itunes Upates.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • Itunes will not sync photos to my New iPad, I run all current software. Itunes show 0 photos in all albums and events. Why is this and how do I get iTunes to recognise my photo library?

    Select you device from the left sidebar of iTunes and navigate to the Photos tab at the top. Do you have the Sync Photos With checkbox checked and set to iPhoto?

  • My songs on itunes will not upload on to my new 5th generation touch ipod

    The songs I got off from youtube and converted on to itunes will not upload on to my new 5th generation i-pod? The message says that itunes can't find the songs. I have 387 songs from youtube and I don't want to have to convert them again.

    The message means what it says. iTunes can't find the actual music files. You can confirm that by trying to play the songs in iTunes on the computer.
    - Try:
    iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads
    - Next reimport them

  • I've downloaded IOS 7, now my videos in iTunes will not rotate to the landscape wide view. Has anyone had this problem? Is there a fix?

    I've downloaded the lastest iOS 7 update and now my videos from iTunes will not rotate to the landscape wide view. I can view other videos from the news, you-tube, movie trailers, etc in landscape wide view, but it's my music videos from iTunes that won't rotate. What's going on? Is there a fix?

    Hi, you don't have screen rotation locked do you?  If unsure there will be an icon like a padlock near the battery symbol on your phone.

  • ITunes will not load--says I need new version of Quick Time

    I've used iTunes for a year and downloaded the new software 7.01--it will not run, says I need to install new version of Quick time. I removed all versions of iTunes off my computer and reinstalled iTunes with same result--Need to install new version of Quick Time. I did this and Quick time said--Can't install because a more current version of Quick time is already installed. Catch 22? Is this a do loop of apple frustration or what? Any ideas would be appreciated.
    iTunes used to work great, I'm very disappointed in apple right now.

  • I recently upgraded from an iphone 4 to a 4s, but now all songs purchased from iTunes will not play via my phone. Any idea how to fix this problem?

    I upgraded from an iphone 4 to a 4s, after a few initial problems and two restores, everythings seemed to be working...until I went to play some music, all music loaded to itunes via CD's played, but ALL purchased music from itunes does not play...i click on the song and the screen flashes to the image then goes back to the list of songs, so the purchased music shows up...just does not play.  Can anyone help resolve this problem? Thanks!

    here is an interesting thing: take the iphone and set lock screen to never. Now make an email with siri--be sure to activate her with call button. get to the body and get some text in there. then just stop talking. LOCK SCREEN APPEARS!!!!!! and of course you draft is gone.
    There does seem to be a work around for some--maybe all these issues. Don't use the call button--use the buttons on the phone.
    Siri seems to behave properly with scenerio above---sans call button. She does not go to lock.

  • After installing new update, my itunes will not open and it says to reinstall it. I did this two or three times and it still won't open. HELP!!!!!!

  • I did an update, lost all recent history from 6th march and will not let me open a new tab. how can I fix this?

    late last week on starting firefox said an update was ready,I said ok,firefox started.
    found i had lost recent history(last 7 days).would not let me open a new tab. plus it did not open with the tabs open already.
    any ideas?
    michael

    Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  • My iTunes will not burn a lot of my music as MP3s

    I am trying to create a MP3 cd with music from my iTunes.
    Most of the music is from CDs.
    But it doesn't seem to matter what format the music originally came in (imported) as because some of it can be turned into MP3s and some of it can not.
    Please tell me what to do in this situation. I know that some of the music from iTunes music store will only allow me to burn a certain amount of times before it does not allow me to anymore. However, I have never burned any of my purchased music to a CD yet. Also, most of the music that I want to burn into MP3 format onto a disc is from my own personal CD collection.
    Is there anything I can do. The problem is that my girlfriend's MP3 player is not an iPod so that I need to make the music MP3 and not MP4 because the player she has only reads MP3s.

    What format is my music converted to when I import from CD?
    that depends on what you have set in your itunes importing preferences tab. for some more info on that, see:
    iTunes 6: How to Choose Import Options
    for a little more info about the different file formats see:

  • Itunes will not burn the order I want.

    details: (a) itunes 10 (b) 2011 13'' macbook pro (c) not a noob
    1) create playlist folder in itunes.
    2) add songs to folder.
    3) put songs in desired order.
    4) burn playlist to cd.
    5) playback cd and discover order is incorrect.
    6) look on internet for help - hours later, discover there is none.
    7) bust cd in rage - vacuum up shards.
    8) start looking for alternatives to itunes.
    mood: dispondent

    In step 5, did you play the CD in your computer or in a CD player?  If you play in your computer, it will play in the order selected by the highlighted column in list view.  I invested a CD and 10 minutes to show you this.
    Here is the paylist sorted by track number.
    Here is the CD as it first appears in iTunes after burning.  Notice that it is sorted by album. I didn't yet select a sort column but it appeared sorted by album with the album column checked.
    Here is the CD sorted by track number.
    Here is the CD opened in Finder.  Note the track numbers correspond to the burn playlist.  This is the order they will play in a CD player.
    Next time, try playing in in your CD player before resorting to steps 7 and 8.

  • ITunes will not burn or import CDs

    I recently installed iTunes 7. Out of nowhere it won't Burn or import CDs. When I open iTunes a message states "can't burn or import because CD Configuration folder is not in the same folder as iTunes". My CD configuration folder is in the same folder as my iTunes folder. I attempted to reinstall iTunes, but with no avail. Then I deleted the CD Configuration folder and iTunes Setup folder, then I reinstalled iTunes, but again I had no success. If you have any pointers please inform me. I'm really confused because what iTunes is telling me is wrong, is actually how it is supposed to be. Recently I've downloaded a DVD Ripping Software and Nero Software, so perhaps that has something to do with it. But anyway if you have any solutions let me know.

    Hi Innonut;
    You are asking your iTune question on the Leopard forum. If you would report in the Windows iTunes Forum, you might get more response there.

  • ITunes will not burn playlists after loading the ION USB Turntable software

    Loaded EZ vinyl converter, which allows copying of LPs and importing them into ITunes. All went well with first album and it can be played on my computer. I cannot burn a disc- either the LP I loaded or music already there.
    The discs are good.
    Any others with this issue?
    Any solutions?

    All my LP downloads go well and they sound great over the computer's speakers, but I can't burn anything, either from iTunes or from Windows Media Player.
    I even deleted the turntable software and tried burning, with no luck.
    And, I haven't gotten a response from the ION folks.
    I don't want to take the computer to my local fixer, only to find that there's a simple software solution.

  • My itunes will not burn CD's...everytime I attempt to burn a CD it gets to the finishing disk point and says it is unable to burn the disk

    Each time i attempt to burn a CD, it quits right before it is finished and flashes an "error" message. if i try to play the CD it show up with how many song are on the disk, but no music plays.

    Try a different disc manufacture. I have good luck with Maxell.
    And make sure the disc is free of smudges and finner prints so the optical disk can write data to it.
