Receiving cancelling burning disc error 4420

I used to be able to burn discs from iTunes. Now a few seconds into burning it stops and I receive a message saying "Burning disc cancelled, error (4420)" and the disc pops out.
Any suggestions how to resolve?
Thanks,
Don

Cannot Burn Discs / Error 4450

My iTunes will not burn my selected playlist. I insert a disc, it initializes, begins writing my songs however stops and ejects the disk. An error message pops up,
"attempt to burn disc failed. unknown error occurred 4450"
Once this happens to the disc, the disc is no longer considered blank even though the attempt was cancelled per the computer. I am wasting discs and very frustrated since I was told itunes is very user-friendly. Please help.
Here are the details about my computer:
Pavilion HP Slimline s7500y PC
Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition 2002
iTunes 7.0.2.16
Intel R Celerom RM Processor 1.70 GHz, .99 GB of RAM
I need very specific instructions. I am not a technology savvy person; minimal knowledge of computers. Thanks.

I am having the same problem! I have tried everything that has been suggested and nothing has worked. I've downloaded the new version of iTunes, checked for updates on my drivers, reducted the speed and the playback gap, and nothing is working. The CD burns to about the 3rd song, then gives the error message and now that CD is no longer read as empty (I can no longer use it have been forced to throw many away). I'm wasting CDs here! Any help would be greatly appereciated.

Encoding/Burn disc error

I have a handful of classic movies that I would like to backup. After the decoding from Handbrake, I get an m4v file of 1.76 GB. When I bring it into iDVD, the total is 7.64, 176 min.
The DVD type is set up for DL (7.7). I use Verbatim 8.5 GB.
Encoding is High Quality. Aspect Ratio is 4:3. Original is 16.9.
To keep the file smaller, I use an early non-animated theme.
The DVD burner is a Mac/iDVD compatible that I have used for awhile.
At the end of the encoding session, I keep getting encoding and burn disk errors.
I also tried to use a converted QT and cut segments to make a smaller file, but I lose the sound sync.
There are no red flags in the project info window.
IDVD 7.0.4, 50 GB to spare.
What am I doing wrong?

Anything here help?

"Canceling burn - unexpected error has occurred (4220)"

Hello - I keep receiving this error message when attempting to burn only one of the many playlists I have. I have deleted the playlist and started over and check each song (all are downloads from iTunes). I have burned all of my playlists and even did one before and after this error.
Anyone have a suggestion? Thank you

Hi. I’m experiencing a similar problem, although I get the message ‘The attempt to burn a disc failed. An unknown error occurred (4450)’. A few things have been kindly recommended to me, for example reducing the write/burn speed, and doing a CD diagnostic to check that the latest drivers are installed for your make of drive. Also, try tapping ‘error 4220’ into Google, to see what comes up. I’ve yet to try these things myself, but I will report back when I have. In the meantime, anyone else have any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks.

Can't Burn Disc Error Code -54

What is going on? can anyone help? Every time i try to burn something in toast it tells me it can't burn the disc because i don't have the proper access permissions and displays error code -54 afterwards...

-54 is a Permissions error that's right ...
What are you trying to copy/burn ?
What version of Toast are you running ?
Remove the DivX QuickTime Plug-In and try burning again as it can mess up some burns ...

Burn Disc Error Code 0x8020063

I've been trying to burn photo files onto a disc for the past 4 days. Initially I was attempting to burn raw photos to a disc and ended up converting the images to JPEG. I've tried using Finder, iPhoto and Apeture and all three programs give me the same error message "This disc could not be verified and might be unrediable. Try again using a new, blank disc. (Error Code 0x80020063)" - I've gone through 8 or 9 blanks discs so far on two separate computers. Any suggestions

Have you tried a different brand of discs? Have you tried cleaning the drive's lens?

Burning Disc Error 0x8002006E

Continually getting this error when burning a disk on my iMac. What's going on ?
Burning using Finder.

Hello,
Make sure you are using CD-R, not CD+R. Also, try a different media. Verbatim, Maxell, Sony...
Also, make sure you have sufficient hard disk space to do this. Right click your MacintoshHD icon, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click General. Make certain you have a minimum of 15% available drive space.
Also, try deleting this file: com.apple.finder.plist /Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag that file from your Preferences folder to the Trash, empty the Trash and reboot.
Also, run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions. Launch Disk Utility) Applications/Utilities Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select FirstAid and click Repair Disk Permissions. Quit Disk Utility when it's finished and reboot.

Burning Disc Error 4251

I'm attempting to burn an audio cd, but as soon as it appears to burn the first song, the cd is spit out and I get the error 4251. This is so frustrating because I have no idea what the error message means. Any ideas?
Windows XP Burning an audio CD

After several failed attempts at solving my burning issues with Apple support (who had no idea what to do) I have found something out. The new "Protected AAC" formatted songs will cause a "failed burn" error message. I own 2 different computers and have tried 2 different types of CD-Rs. I have found that Windows Media Player will burn just fine, and that in iTunes I can burn all my old music (under "kind" look for "AAC audio file") just fine also. So I seem to have norrowed it down to Apple's new protected formats called "Protected AAC audio file"
So far this is all I've got. Just don't buy anything else from iTunes for now.
Anyone else have any ideas

Burn disc error 4000 - how can i fix this???

I am trying to burn CD's of music and randomly keep getting this error message - sometimes I can do a CD and then other times I get this message at the end so there is no consistancy in why it is happening....
I see this has been a problem for other people and yet there doesn't seem to be an answer to this???
Please help - I work for a choir and have to produce a lot of music CD's for people and I'm wasting huge amounts of time and money on CD's because of this error.
Thanks

Error message when burning discs

I can't burn a disc from my playlists. I have the newest version of iTunes but I do not have the burn icon at the top of the page. The only way I can initialize a burn is to right-click the playlist and select "burn playlist to disc". The burn begins properly but somewhere before it is finished it cancels itself and gives me the following message : Unable to burn disc. An unknown error occurred (4251). Any suggestions?

I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, I GOT THE ERROR 4251, WHAT ID DID WAS TO SELECT A SLOWER BURNING SPEED, I SELECTED 4X, AND IT WORKED FINE, THE CD'S I AM USING ARE MEMEOREX CD-RW 12X, TRY IT AND LET ME KNOW IF IT WORKS.

While trying to burn a cd in itunes, I receive the message "unknown error occurred" (-3)

I had no trouble burning with Itunes until two days ago. When I tried to burn, the disc was prepared, then the burn was cancelled with the message "unknown error occurred" (-3)
I use a speed of 2x to burn discs.

Hey there gmell22,
It sounds like you are unable to burn an audio CD in Windows and are getting this error code number 3. I can see how that would definately be frustrating. I have two articles for you to help resolve the issue. First:
