New iTunes Versio & CD burning

I have both a G5 and Vista computers. Both have same symptoms with iTunes suddenly. When burning playlists, it says it won't fit, even if there's only 1 song, weighing a few k...This happens on both iTunes (Win & Mac) with different brand CD-Rs. Never had problem before. I am an IT guy and find this very strange...
Thanks
GM

I haven't had any burning problems on my Mac.

  • New Itunes only allows burning 7 purchased songs to CD

    I downloaded the latest version of itunes. The help manual clearly states that Itunes will only allow you to burn a purchased song 7 times. However, this version only allows you to burn 7 purchased songs to a cd instead. No matter what I do, only 7 songs get burned to a cd. Seems like a flaw in the program. I tried this several times (more than 7) So apparently I can now burn the purchased songs as many times as I wish but only 7 on a cd. I don't think this was the intent.

    Not quite what is says.
    You can burn a playlist with purchased music 7 times.
    However, this version only allows you to burn 7 purchased songs to a cd
    No.
    No matter what I do, only 7 songs get burned to a cd.
    Explain exactly what you are doing.

  • My old computer, and external that I had everything backed up on broke. Majority of my music I got from burning CD's that I no longer have. How can I get all my music on my iPod onto my new iTunes?

    Like I said, my back up broke and I can't get all of my music back by transfering purchases because I burned a lot of CD's I had collected from the past. I don't have any of those CD's anymore, so how can I get all of my music onto my new iTunes? Or am I just S.O.L.?

    Phone to Mac,this app lets you easily copy, transfer the music, videos and playlists from any iPod or iPhone directly into iTunes on any Mac.

  • How to burn songs from one itunes account to import into a new itunes acct

    I have set up seperate playlists for my children under my itunes account. However, my son is now older and receiving itunes gift cards and we want to set up his own itunes account but don't want to loose the songs we have purchased for him under my itunes account. We want these songs to still be available for him to sync to his ipod so we think we need to burn the songs to a disk so they can then be imported into his new itunes account. He doesn't want to loose track of his itunes money nor do I want him to be able to purchase songs using my itunes acct credit card info without my knowledge, therefore, we think we need to set up a new itunes account for his personal use. Any guidance would be appreciated!

    Not necessary. If you want to copy song files to a new computer, copy them to a USB flash drive, and then from the flash drive to the new computer.

    He should definitely have his own iTunes library, be it on the shared computer or on his own computer. As for a separate account in the iTunes Store, that is really up to you, depending how the family shares.

  • Can't burn a disc w new iTunes - help

    Hi - trying to burn a cd-r w music (open source) using new iTunes. Can't get cd to register in iTunes. What am I missing?
    Thanks for all help -
    Lillian

    Same thing has happened to me. I upgraded to itunes 9.0 and now I am receiving the disc drive or software not found error. Diagnostic also shows that my CD/DVD drive isn't recognized. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the itunes software as well as my drivers and it still isn't working. I have also done every tip recommended by Apple and on various forums to no avail.
    I guess I should have stayed with the older version....I have never encountered this in the past. This is very frustrating, hopefully Apple can come up with a solution quickly.

  • Ever since I downloaded the new itunes I can't burn CD's using my external

    I can't burn cd's using my writemaster external CD drive. I can't use the one inside the computer because it's a piece of crap and burned out months ago. I burned a CD yesterday with no problem My only guess is that it has something to do with the new itunes! Help! Suggestions? Support numbers I can call? Anything!

    Oh! and Sorry... I downloaded some other burn software a little bit ago, and it's working fine. It's just WAY slower than iTunes. Anyone know what I can do?!

  • I can't print a label for my burned CD with the new ITunes format

  • HT1386 I have a new computer and when I tried to sync my iPod Touch with the new iTunes, it has lost all of my music and videos from my iPod/old iTunes library: including all but 4 songs of my bought songs, videos and audeobooks!

    I have recently updated my computer since my old one broke and therefore had to download a new iTunes. When I came to add my iPod to this new iTunes, I was given no option to transfer the contents of my iPod library to this new iTunes and was forced to try 'sync'; when my old computer was repaired once we lost all of our data so I had to download a new iTunes then,all of my iPod downloads were transferred and I could easily reburn my CDs so I didn't think the wiping of my iPod would be a problem. When I clicked 'sync' it warned me that it would replace the contents of my iPod with the new iTunes library, as I said I didn't think this would be a problembut then it asked if it should transfer my recent iTunes downloads so I said 'yes'. The sync was completed but now I only have 4 downloaded songs and 5 albums which I burned to my new iTunes! I have lost all the music I bought, all the videos I bought and all the audiobooks I bought! (Luckily I still have my apps.) I tried to restore backup but realised that only covers calendars, contacts E.T.C and I checked my iTunes account and that shows all my downloads but I can't see a way to restore them or anything like that!
    Please help! I am in despair as you can imagine how much moneys worth I have lost and am losing faith in Apple

    Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
    As IO said before:
    You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    I do not think it included audio books.

  • How do I copy music files from an iPod 5thGen to a new iTunes installation?

    My old WinXP computer crashed & burned (literally). I installed iTunes (11.2.2.3) on my new Win7 PC. How do I copy all my music from my 5th Gen iPod into the new iTunes? My music collection contains only MP4 files ripped from my CD collection--nothing purchased from the iTunes Store. I located a folder named Apple on one of my old flash drives which contains a subfolder named iTunes Music. That folder contains subfolders for each of my original CDs with MP4s for all the tracks. Could I use those files to restore my music to iTunes?

    If is a MicroSD card you'll need a MicroSD to SD card adapter. Something like this.
    Once you have one of those just insert it into the SD card slot on your Mac then open a Finder window and select all the images and press Command + c to copy then go to the folder you want to put them in and select it and press Command + v to paste to that folder.

  • How can I move my iTunes music to a new iTunes account?

    I need to unsync my iPhone from my spouces iPhone and I understand the only way to do this is to have my own iTunes account.  Can someone please help me with instructions on how to move my music to my new iTunes account?

    Well according to what I said earlier about an account being the online account for purchasing music and what you said earlier about what you meant was indeed the online account, not what you have on your computer, then leilaboxergirl's answer was not correct.  Since you marked it as correct then what you meant was not an account after all but files from your iTunes collection. 
    By the way, you can do it all without a CD just by dragging tracks to a flash drive, then dragging them to an iTunes window on another computer.  Alternatively, if the computers are on the same home network you can use Home Sharing and do it all wirelessly.
    Incidentally, you don't "burn songs from disc to that account".  You will rip songs from the CD to the iTunes collection or library on your computer.  Burning is what you do to put tracks on a CD not get them from a CD to a computer.
    Terminology is important here or confusion will end up with you doing something wrong another time and wipe all your files or something.

  • TS1436 I received this message twice on 2 new & separate attempts to burn a playlist to a NEW cd:  "The attempt to burn a disc failed.  The burn failed because of a medium write error."  What is a "medium write error" and how can I deal with this?

  • I lost all my playlists when downloading the new itunes. Anyway to get them back?

    I lost all my playlists when downloading the new itunes. Besides honestly wanting to cry, is there anyway to get them back without making them all AGAIN? And thanks so much, stupid Apple. Am looking for a new MP3 player to take your stupid ipod player's place. I used to love my ipod...now everytime I turn around, apple has screwed with something that causes ME time and trouble.

    If you created/burned Recovery Media boot from it to restore the original OS with all drivers/software. If you don't have Recovery Media you can order from HP for a small fee. Contact HP Support in your country /region to request Recovery Media. Worldwide contact info can be accessed here>>Contact HP

  • How do I change the new iTunes play list total time display from 1.5 hours format to exact display of 1hr 31min 12sec.

    In the new iTunes the play list total time displays in 1.5 hours format, how do I get it to clearly show 1hr 31min 12sec like before, I want the exact time so I can properly fit all the songs when I want to burn this playlist to a disc. You can no longer just click on it to change the display format. Nor can you right click, control click, or change it in options. If anyone knows I would very much appreciate your imput. Thank You.

    Actually, that's the problem ... in iTunes *11* it has stopped working.  I have the status bar displayed, and it is stuck on the 1.x hours format.
    That is very, very strange !!
    I can't get that to happen on mine. It worked in 11.0 and I updated today to 11.0.1 and it's OK.
    I've tried making a new playlist, I've tried changing an old playlist, smart playlist ...... all OK ????
