Okay... any fix to the backup to disk problem?

I tried tonight to back up my library to DVD. I got to the point where it said insert disk, which I do, and then it spits the door open and says insert blank disk, over and over and over each time I put a blank disk into the drive.
Has there been a fix to this?

I'm having a similar problem, on Windows 2000. Other software (such as NTI DriveBackup, which I used to back up my entire hard drive yesterday) has no problem with that same drive or with the discs I'm using.
I suspect that rolling back to 7.2 may be my best answer, but I'm hoping for something that's a bit less of a PITA.

  • Where has the backup to disk option gone in iTunes 10.4?

    The option to backup your library is gone from iTunes 10.4 (or at least I cannot find it) and that was a feature I used regularly as a secondary backup solution.  Where has it gone?  Is there no easy way to backup your library to disc now?  Is the only way to backup now with time machine?

    I logged a case with iTunes support and received a call back yesterday. The agent had no clue that 10.4 did not have the backup to disk function. After i insisted that it was gone, I was put on hold, and he came back with an amazing explanation. All he could tell me is that it was because the "iCloud" would now be the way for users to backup, but at a cost of course. He was unable to give any details or point me to any refrence material on this change. in my opinion, this is an amazing change in the way apple does business. Like the US congress, they changed the rules in the shadows, and did not tell anyone they were doing it. OK, i understand that tech savy users will see this as no problem, but how about good old normal Joe who is not a techie and uses the backup to disk function as his primary backup? Joe will now have to wait for the iCloud to become mainstream, wait for instructions that do not exist today and pay for the ability to backup. Apple has gone the way of all the others now, revenue befoe the customer! This is a very shady way to change a policy and changes how i think of apple as a company. When will they come clean and tell everyone about the change, and how? Bad move Apple!

    This looks like hardware error.

    Looks like the Silicon Image drivers were moved to the incompatible software folder during install/upgrade.

  • Any fix for the kernel panic issue?

    So far, i've had 12 kernel panics. Usually it only happens when I start iTunes or software update. I read in a developer forum it was because of the NVIDIA Graphics card. So, are there any fixes for the kernel panics with Lion?

    There is no bluetooth connectivity issue after the recent OS update. There may be a problem with your phone, which may or may not be related to the update. A "common problem" looks like this in the forums:
    I haven't seen any threads on BlueTooth with over 1.4 million views and over 12,000 replies, or even any vaguely close. For any problem that someone has there is bound to be someone else amoung 150 million users who have it. That doesn't make it a "common problem."
    If you tell us what the problem is specifically and what you have done so far to try to resolve it someone can probably help you.

  • Any fix for the PC based network printer communication issue with Mavericks?

    Any fix for the PC based network printer communication issue with Mavericks?

    I just signed up for FIOS and am not experiencing your problem (had enough other ones instead).
    Go to mail preferences ~ click on a mail account ~ click on the advanced tab. The only settings that worked for me were: port 110 SSL OFF, authentication: Authenticated POP (APOP). If I remember correctly when I first set this up another window opened and I typed in my password and never had to do that again.
    Hope this helps.

  • Error Warning that Time Machine couldn't complete the backup to disk, an error occurred while copying files.

    I've been getting this warning on my MBA for the last week: "Time Machine couldn’t complete the backup to “LaCie-2big-NAS.” an error occurred while copying files. The problem may be temporary. If the problem persists, us Disk Utility to repair your backup disk."
    I have MBA and iMac, both running Maverick (10.9.4), backed up to LaCie NAS. However, when I go to Disk Utility on the MBA and the iMac, the LaCie does not appear and thus can't be selected to run repair. The iMac seems to be backing up to LaCie without problem. And even seems that MBA is backing up sometimes; when I check Time Machine, I can find files added in the last couple of days.
    Is this a real problem? What's fix?
    Thanks

    You can't repair a network volume in Disk Utility.
    Backing up to a third-party NAS with Time Machine is risky, and unacceptably risky if it's your only backup. I know this isn't the answer you want, and I also know that the manufacturer says the device will work with Time Machine, and that it usually seems to work. Except when you try to restore, and find that you can't.
    If you want network backup with Time Machine, use as the destination either an Apple Time Capsule or an external hard drive connected to another Mac or to an 802.11ac AirPort base station. Only the 802.11ac base stations support Time Machine, not any older model.
    If you're determined to keep using the NAS for backup, your only recourse for any problems that result is to the manufacturer (which will blame Apple.)

  • Any fix for the "remembering passwords" problem with MAIL?

    I've been following the other threads on this topic. I am a new Mac user (all of 5 days) with 10.5.2 preinstalled on a macbook pro, so this is not a migration problem. Applecare has been unable to resolve the issue. My setup is a Verizon FIOS POP account. I've tried all the repairing, creating keychain suggestions. My incoming and outgoing accounts function properly, then they mysteriously forget the login credentials. Is there any fix for this, this seems absurd coming from a PC background? Thanks.

  • Does Firefox plan any fix to the 3.6 update that hangs all use of any web page in English

    After updating to 3.6 from 3.5 web page loads and downloads hang. using xp laptop core 2 duo 2.66 - 3 gigs ram. uninstalled 3.6 and reinstalled 3.5 and all is well. Do not plan to do a bunch of hunt and change to make it work. That is why I changed from IE to firefox in the first place. Is there a 3.6 update fix on the way?

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.<br />
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • Any fix for iSO6.0.2 battery problem?

    Any Fix yet?

    I downloaded iOS 6.0.2 on my iPhone 5 and my wife's iPhone 5. We have experienced no difference in battery consumption from previous version. I understand that some people apparently do experience faster battery drain but I do not think it is a problem with every iPhone or iPad.
    First thing to try is a reboot of your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Any fixes for the frequent crashing of apps in iOS 7.0.2?

    Almost all my apps have crashed while I've been using them-even iBooks while I needed to be studying for an online course. Sometimes the app crashes over and over again when I'm trying to re-open it. Even the Music app has crashed on me and refused to work unless I changed a setting of the repeat function before it crashed again, which temporarily solved the problem. Any way to get these bugs fixed? Don't tell me govt shutdown and furloughs are screwing up my iPad and iPhone! I expected a working iOS, not a beta.

    reset all settings
    settings-general-reset-reset all settings
    now reconnect to wifi
    settings- wifi- click network name- enter password - join
    if issue persist back up and restore as new via iTunes
    Peace, Clyde

  • Any fix to the battery life issue from upgrading to IOS 6.0.2, as my battery life has gone from 2 days to 4 hours since 'upgrading'??

    I purchased my Iphone 5 on the day of release, since then I have had a 2 day battery life on average, since upgrading to IOS 6.0.2, the battery struggles to last for 4 hours, is there any solution or fix??  If not any idea when this will be fixed??  Is there anyway to revert back to IOS 6.0.1?
    HELP!!!

    It is unlikely that this problem has anything to do with iOS 6.0.2. It is possible that the update process itself has caused some settings on your iPhone to become corrupted.
    Here are some steps to deal with this:
    1. Close all apps (use the app switcher; double tap home, press and hold an icon, click the "-" signs)
    2. Go to Settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset All Settings. (Does NOT delete apps or any data; just resets network/iOS settings)
    3. Wait for iPhone to restart.
    4. Charge iPhone up to 100% and monitor.

  • Is there any fix for the flashplayer installer not working on a windows 7, 64-bit, using firefox?

    I Hit the download link, get the permission windows, and the flashplayer installer window comes up, but doesn't do anything. i left it up all day when i went to work, come home 12 hours later and it was still just sitting there not installing. Is there a fix for this? i have looked everywhere and nothing that i have found has worked. even the suggestions on the adobe help page doesn't work..

    And you used the offline installers from the link that Andy posted:
    Flash Player for Internet Exporer - ActiveX
    Flash Player for Firefox - NPAPI
    If yes, please post the contents of the FlashInstall.log file in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash
