My matshita dvd-r uj-898 stopped working after i used an external burner...how can I fix this?

Macbook Pro  10.6.7, 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7, 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
I have a Matshita DVD-R UJ-898 which worked fine (from the Finder and from Toast 8) until I used an external Matshita drive (can't remember the model). 
Now the finder gives this error:
“Untitled DVD” can’t be burned because the disc is read-only and can’t be modified (error code 0x80020042).
and Toast gives this one:
The drive reported an error:
Sense Key = ABORTED COMMAND
Sense Code = 0x4E
OVERLAPPED COMMANDS ATTEMPTED
Suggestions?
Thanks so much,
Amy

Have you tried using a different brand of optical disk? (You don't say whether you are doing CDs or DVDs.) Some are better than others.

  • My Itune match doesn't work.  When it tries to update, it stalls on step 3.  If I don't cancel it, I get a window saying "Itunes has stopped working" and the program shuts down.  How can I fix this???

    When my Itunes Match tries to update, it stalls every time on the third step "Uploading remaining songs and artwork".  If I don't cancel it, very shortly I get a message saying "Itunes has stopped working" and then Itunes shuts down completely.  Is there a fix for this?  I have the most recent version of Itunes.  HELP!

  • My iphone 5s screen has stopped  working for no reason at all? how can i fix this?

    I was using it fine then locked it and tried to use it 5 minutes later and it stopped working? any ways to fix this or do i have to go onto an apple store?

    A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
    No content is affected by this procedure.

  • My printer (HP8500) is wi-fi connected to my imac and my macbook. works fine from macbook, but has stopped working on the imac--shows offline. How can I fix this? Thanks

    I have an iMac and MacBook Pro, both running Snow Leopard at current maintenance levels. I have an HP8500 printer connected via wi-fi. All have been working well until just recently. Now, the iMac cannot communicate with the printer. The printer icon shows offline. The printer is still online to the MacBook. I suspect a related problem is that when I try to access files on the MacBook from the iMac, I get a message that they are unavailable, but re-clicking once or twice to re-try works and the files are accessible. The only problem is that I cannot modify them from the iMac, even though the sharing options are set for update capability.
    Resetting the printer and re-booting the iMac don't help.

    Yosemite is a big problem.
    I recommend you factory reset the TC and start over.
    Factory reset universal
    Power off the TC.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the TC to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
    N.B. None of your files on the hard disk of the TC are deleted.. this simply clears out the router settings of the TC.
    Redo the setup from Yosemite.. it needs to be directly involved in the setup to remember anything.
    Please use short names.. no spaces and pure alphanumeric. eg TCgen5 base station name. TCwifi as wireless name.
    Set password WPA2 Personal security which is pure alphanumeric mixed case and numbers.
    Please empty out all the old wireless names from your devices.. reboot them and rediscover the network.
    If it still fails tell us.

  • HT201401 Sleep/Wake button is not working. Do you have any suggestions how can I fix this?

    Hi, I bought an iPhone5 in Sydney on 17 Sep 2012 (through Apple online store-Weborder no. W425361396) while I was studying there. Now I already went back to my home country (Thailand). And I got a problem with my iPhone5. The Sleep/Wake button is not working. Do you have any suggestions how can I fix this?
    Looking forward to hear from you.
    Best regards,

    You will have to return the iPhone to Australia .The iPhone warranty is not international .
    Warranty and service is only provided in Country of original sale
    You could try a reset followed if required by a restore initially with backup and then again if required as new
    If that makes no difference it will be a hardware issue and you will have to return it to Australia

  • Using Mavericks Spelling and Grammar in Pages document causes Pages to freeze. Must Force Quit. Mavericks spell checker works OK in Text and Emails. How can I fix this problem?

    Using Mavericks' Spelling and Grammar in a Pages document causes Pages to freeze, Must Force Quit. How can I fix this problem?
    Mavericlks Spelling and Grammar works in Pages when used manually. And it works automatically in Text and email.

    Another autocorrect bug:
    I type a lot of lyrics, which tend to cotain words like ’cause and ’em instead of because and them.
    I've set up autocorrect instances to change a plain apostrophe with an ending, single curly quote for these words, but they are invariably changed to a beginning, single curly quote mark by Pages. The only way I can get the correct curly quote is to type over the wrong quote manually and hope that I don't have to edit the rest of the word again, as this would cause autocorrect to kick in again and change the quote to the wrong, beginning curly mark again.
    Does anyone know how to get around this tedious problem?

  • When i go to burn a dvd, it gives an error message "menu duration exceeds 15 minutes." how can i fix this??

    When I go to burn a dvd, imovie displays an error message, "menu duration exceeds 15 minutes.  How do I fix?

    You may have too many chapters (scene selections), or perhaps one or more of the menus are looping for too long. Each menu in its standard form generally runs for no more than 30 seconds before repeating. In any of the menus have you inserted your own music that runs for a much longer duration? If so, using the Inspector, reduce the music time to 30 seconds (there is a slider you can adjust).
    Regarding chapters - how many do you have in the project? You may need to delete some markers in your iMovie project. In most of the iDVD themes each scene selection page allows up to 6 scenes. So, for example, if you have 50 scenes marked, the theme would require 9 scene selection pages. I really don't know what the maximum is, but clearly you've run over the 15 minute limit for the iDVD menus. It may be a combination of too many chapters and music looping for too long on one or more of the menus.

  • Back button and menu button don't work after spilling beer on it. How do I fix this?

    A few months ago on a night out beer was spilt on my iPod, I let it dry out and it still worked fine.
    However a couple of weeks later my back button started to play up, only working some of the time I pressed it, and then stopped working all together.
    My menu buttong has also recently started to play up, with me having to press it and hold it down for it to work, and this only working some of the time. Any ideas on how this can be fixed? Or even how do I send it off to be fixed? My iPod is still within its one year warranty.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Sound doesn't work unless I restart my computer. How can I fix this?

    So my sound will frequently randomly stop working on my MacBook Pro 13" that I purchased new about a year ago. It's happens not after I've unplugged headphones or the power connector, but instead it's just totally random. I've gone to sound preferences too and nothing seems to fix it. Once I restart my computer, however, it will be fixed again. The only thing is this happens about once a day, and I can't be restarting my computer all the time to fix my sound. Does any one have any idea how I can fix this problem? It's happening right now so I'm not going to restart it to try to see if I can fix it somehow without restarting. Also, there is no red light in the headphone jack. Please help!

  • Mailing .pdf attachments to Presto Printer doesn't work with Firefox but does with IE, how can I fix this?

    Since upgrading to 4.0.1 the email address [email protected] indicates that there is something wrong with any attachment in .pdf format. This happens when I send mail from my yahoo or aol mail accounts when using Mozilla. It does not occur if I'm using those mail accounts and Internet Explorer.
    [email protected] lets you see what an email will look like when printed on a subscriber's Presto printer, which is a printer that is used without a computer, it periodically calls a toll-free number and looks for mail sent to that address. I believe anyone can send mail to [email protected] and will receive a reply back, so you could test tweeks to Mozilla that would resolve the problem. This issue started in September or October of 2010, was resolved by Presto at that time, but has not been resolved with the 4.0.1 version.

    MS offers some advanced features only for its own IE browser and not for other browsers like Firefox.

    When I go into the app store, I cannot "update all" of the apps. The color on the button changes when I press there but nothing happens. I also can't go into each app and update them individually. Has this happened to anyone else?
