Problems importing CDs after upgrade

I have upgraded to the latest version of Quicktime and iTunes. Now when I pop in some CDs to import them (or, in this case, to re-import them at a higher bitrate, to match the songs I've upgraded through iTunes Plus), my MacBook won't mount the disc. It tries to read it for about 30 seconds and then spits it out.
The funny thing is that these are CDs that I have successfully imported in the past.
Is anyone else running into this problem?
MacBook Core Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

Looks like some of my old CDs were dirty. Other CDs were clean but my MacBook is just fussy. My partner's old PowerBook imports them just fine.

    I have a nearly identical problem with my Ipad 3. Mine is the left channel. I've yet to find help, but have found a number of other posts on this and other forums discussing the issue. People have tried restore, reset etc. Also, cleaning the ports with compressed air or cotton swabs. It appears to be a software issue, but no one is sure.
    Along with the original poster, I'd appreciate any help.
    As far as the 'level 6' poster, if you're going to be rude, please don't bother. Hope it was just a bad day.

  • Problems importing CDs

    Hi, I have seen other discussions on problems importing CDs & Gracenote. I have the following problem.
    Using iTunes 10.2 on my laptop, CDs will not import when I am connected to the internet at home, but the same CDs will import when I am at work.
    At home the import will run very slowly (takes several hours) and eventually report as completed but although the tracks are on the hard drive they are unplayable. At work, on the same laptop, the import completes in a matter of minutes and the tracks are playable.
    Has anyone else experienced anything like this and any suggestions on a solution? I don't want to haul my entire CD collection to work to import it (not to mention my employers don't like it).
    The other thing to note is my home desktop machine exhibits the same characteristics as the laptop at home (very slow, unplayable once completed).
    Cheers.

    You'd probably be better off posting this in the iTunes discussions. Check your import encoder settings.

  • Has anybody lost imported photos after upgrading to Lion? (iphoto11)

    Has anybody lost imported photos after upgrading to Lion? (iphoto11)

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

    We are having problems extending VO after upgrading from JDev CU2 to JDev CU6. The extended VORowImpl java file extends the OAViewRowImpl instead of the VO that we are extending. Other files are fine except for the VORowImpl

  • Continual problem importing CDs

    For years now I have had problems importing CDs, and I am at my wit's end. Many times when I import a CD, I finish, eject the CD, and find that my songs are no where to be found on itunes. Often time they will hang out in the "recently added" playlist, but even then, if I had gone through the trouble of "getting info" and changing the song descriptions and what not, those changes would surely not be shown there. Furthermore, I can't seem to get itunes to recognize the tunes even when they are in this recently added area.
    Please help.

    I have lost songs in the past and this is what I did to fix it. iTunes uses an on-line service called Gracenote to get the details like song titles, album title, artists, genre and so on. One of those bits of info is whether or not the CD in question is a compilation. This data was entered by people like you and me. If Gracenote doesn't have it in its database, it will prompt you to enter the info and the next person will have it ready to go.
    You can search under artist (CTL+B) to look for "Compilations" or you can also look under "Various Artists"
    iTunes files albums by ALBUM ARTIST when possible. Gracenote doesn't give that info so if there is a guest artist on one song, that song shows up as a separate album. I fix this by highlighting every song in that album and right-click to GET INFO (CTL+I) and fill in the blank for ALBUM ARTIST.
    A more basic check is to look in EDIT > PREFERENCES > ADVANCED to see where iTunes puts things by default. I have a pretty big library, so I installed a separate drive and made that my default. Right below the drive location is a couple of important check boxes.
    "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized" means that iTunes will create folders by ALBUM ARTIST (or ARTIST if you didn't fill in the blanks) and each album as a sub-folder.
    "Copy Files To iTunes Media Folder when adding to Library" If you have music files in your computer (thumb drive, desktop, e-mail, MP3 disc, etc) and you add them to your iTunes Library, they stay right there if this box is not checked. iTunes knows where to find them (until you pull the thumb drive out) If you check this box, iTunes puts a copy in the Library: MUSIC > ALBUM ARTIST > ALBUM >
    There is another check box that helps find lost songs FILE > LIBRARY > ORGANIZE LIBRARY > CONSOLIDATE FILES

  • Importing CDs after Recent Upgrade

    After a recent upgrade I am unable to import CDs onto my Ipod. This seems to be a problem with I-Tunes. If I want to a warning message comes up saying I will lose all existing music which I don't want to do. Has anyone got any suggestions?

    Hello again
    Sorry. There actually is another option, but given the fact you are using an upgraded Word I figured it wasn't worth mentioning. The other option is to reinstall Word 2003 and use it alongside Word 2010. I'm not sure, but Peter Grainge may have info on his site on how to do this.

    Finding this Post took some time but I thought it was me talking when I read it. I was having the exact same issue. I have a G3 I've been upgrading like mad, including a Sonnet G4-500 CPU a Maxtor 60gb & 80gb HDs 1gb of RAM a new LaCie Firewire800 PCI card Graphics card etc. the latest was installing Panther 10.3.9 on the new 80gb HD and also swapping out the old CD-ROM and replacing with the (Apple standard) Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-110D combo drive in it's place. got everything up and booted and poof! no burning. Toast worked read/write no problem. iTunes could read and import no problem, but wouldn't burn a CD.
    Downloaded "PatchBurn 3.1.3" installed, re-booted and all is OK in burner land again :>)
    I wanted to just post my additional thanks to the lead to Patchburner, and I'm going to donate to the cause. It's worth a $20 donation just for my joy of not throwing this computer out the window!!

  • Problem with setMnemonic after upgrading to 1.4.2

    Hi,
    setMnemonic doesnt seem to work properly for JButtons after upgrading from 1.3.1 to 1.4.1. Hot Key works but underlining doesnt show.
    In our app, we have our own controls which are basically derived from Swing controls. In this case JButton.
    I have tried using both setMnemonic API (char as well as int) but no luck. Look and feel we use is Windows look and feel (W2K). Font is Dialog. One thing I have noticed is that if I donot set the look and feel in my app. It seems to work fine. (Metalic).
    Anybody has any clue on how to fix this issue ?
    Thanks in advance

  • Can't import photos after upgrade to Tiger 10.4.8

    After upgrading from Panther to Tiger I can no longer import photos to iPhoto 4 from my camera. I get error messages that say "Unreadable files: 240. The following files could not be imported (they may be unrecognized file type or the file may not contain valid data). When I go to the directory they are located in, I see a bunch of JPG files, but when I try to open them I get a message from Preview saying it may be corrup or a file format Preview doesn't recognize.
    I can view the photos that were in iPhoto prior to the OS upgrade without any problem.

    Hi, hope I've caught this discussion before it's ended.
    Been getting "Unreadable files. The following files could not be imported (they may be unrecognized file type or the file may not contain valid data" ... but then ...
    Was having problems with my hard drive and was about to back up my iPhoto Library when I checked the folder size with 'Apple i' and the 'lock' option was ticked. I definitely didn't option it. I've added images to iPhoto with this option unchecked and they've all gone in fine. Fantastic.
    I too think my problems started after Tiger upgrade back last Autumn, loaded some pics in iPhoto at that time, deleted from camera and went back to iPhoto - none there!
    Try this option, hope it works for someone else.

  • Problems with language after upgrade?

    Hi,
    We did an upgrade from 4.6C to 6.0 and as part of the upgrade the spanish language was imported again. SMLT was runned after the upgrade so it finished the import of the language because the upgrade do not import the whole language because it takes too much time.
    Now when I enter DB13, ST03N or some other transactions, i get a mix between Spanish, German and English only if I logged in spanish, if I login in English then everything works just fine.
    I've been looking for SAP notes about this and don´t find anything, does anybody knows about a note in reference to this problem or know how to solve this?
    In another upgrade from 4.5B to 6 the samethig happens but the client did not matter about this as they usually login in English to do administrative tasks.
    Thanks,

    Hi AC
    without being the expert, which would solve your topic... This is probably the following:
    Each object in the system is assigned to a main language and different translation languages (i.e. a field name is available in 32 different languages). The translation level depends on the type of documentation.
    The system (depending on the language settings) first tries to show you the translation, which corresponds to your login-language. If this translation is not available, then it goes back to the object in a main language (like English). A screen might then include Spanish and English Field names, or even "Placeholders".
    In newly installed SAP ECC 6.0 systems, the first thing I would think about is, that you intend to shown an object, which is not translated, or that your language is not properpy installed, or that the language presentation vector of your system is not properly maintained, or that you have Unicode topics.
    For a solution start into the following direction
    - on service.sap.com/globalization (language information and media library) find out more about the langauge concept, and the translation aspects for the different objects/ languages
    - Consider the MDMP/ Unicode topic.
    - In the system check the language settings and language import status
    - regarding upgrade/ unicode start witht he recommenations in the upgrade master guide SAP ERP 6.0, or the information at service.sap.com/unicode@sap.

  • Can't read data CDs after upgrading to 5.0

    After upgrading to 5.0, I can't read data CDs I've already made from any other programs. When I try to open one, Windows Explorer shows D: drive with no folders or files at all, and 0 bytes used/0 bytes available. I can still play DVDs and audio CDs. iTunes 5.0 opens fine on pc, and I can access/play music, but doesn't recognize my iPod or iPod mini. I'm afraid to download anything else until I get this problem fixed. HELP - please
    I've used System Restore to go back to earlier version, and that lets me view/use CDs, but I can't open iTunes - message says some files missing, reinstall iTunes. I've tried to uninstall iTunes through add/remove, but the install shield disappears after starting.

    hi Jeanne!
    Problem is obviously a software conflict, but I'm lost on how to fix it. And it's getting tiring installing upgrade to use iTunes, then going back to System Restore in order to back up data from other programs - plus I can't believe that's the best thing to do for the pc.
    gaah. okay, the fact that a Syetem Restore gets your CD drives back suggests it's a registry issue, and also that we're either getting a conflict with other installed non-MS burning/ripping software
    b or
    (unfortunately), there is a problem showing up related to such software that you've
    b previously uninstalled,
    but which has left behind some peculiar registry entries.
    so let's try attacking both the ghosts of software present and past.
    (1) what other burning/ripping software do you currently have on your PC? can you go into your "about" screens in the packages to let us know the precise version name and number? (the decimal points do make a difference, i'm afraid.)
    (2) here are the standard MS troubleshooting documents on CD drive problems. it might be best to start with the
    b burning
    KB doc, because that has probably the best information/links on the conflict issues:
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324129
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321641/

    keep us posted.

  • Problems mounting CDs after downloading Itunes 10 when on the internet

    I'm new to both Macs and forums, so please bear with me if some of the terminology is wrong. Also, from the other posts I have looked at this seems to be a longstanding but unanswered issue, so feel free to direct me to other places if an answer is out there.
    Basically, since I bought my MacbookPro in May almost all of the time cds mounted automatically and it found the CD info on the internet. Sometimes it hadn't been doing it first time round, but it wasn't too great an issue. However, earlier today I downloaded Itunes 10. Now, cds won't mount when I'm connected to the internet. In fact Itunes has a kind of flickering attack as though it's struggling to read the cd. Trying to manually mount the CDs using Disk Utility also doesn't work in this case. But if I UNcheck the "automatically retrieve cd track names from the internet" it mounts.
    So, I can import cds but I don't have any of the information. Also, when I try to manually import the information ("Get track names) a message box pops up saying the information doesn't exist, which can't be the case on these widely available albums. I have tried various combinations of the suggestions mentioned (bar deleting and reinstalling software which I have no idea how to do) and nothing works.
    Finally then, my questions:
    1. Can I go back to the older version of Itunes that almost always worked? If so, how do i do so?
    2. If I was to import the cds first, is there a way of adding the track information later, given what I wrote above.
    So far my first few months using a Mac have been very pleasurable. However, this problem is quite frustrating at the halfway point of importing my cd collection to my Mac, so any answers would be really appreciated.

    Similar problems but not quite.
    Yesterday, I imported a few CDs no problem. Then I noticed that one of my albums on my iPhone had the tracks in the wrong order (a pain on a gapless album!) but it's OK on the iMac.
    I tried to re-import but iTunes crashes every time I click 'yes' to 'would you like iTunes to import...?'
    I noticed that although the disc is mounted in the finder, it's not in iTunes and neither does it go off to check gracenote.
    Anyway I fixed that issue with a reboot but the wrong track order still persists.
    Hey ho, just await the update I guess.
