Receiving error code 0x8002006E on new iMac running 10.7.2

Receiving error code 0x8002006E on new iMac running 10.7.2. Have seen threads form 2008 on laptops with error but with no solutions. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the suggestion. The AppleCare technician had me try an SMC Reset and it corrected the problem. There is information in this inthe article below.

Hi!
Did You See If this Happens In Safe Mode?
On Startup After the Chime Hold Down Shift Then Release It When you see the Apple and the Progress Indicator(Spinning gear). This Boot Will take a Little Longer Than Normal.
If it Did Not Work Than There Might Be Something Wrong With The Disc Drive.
I HOPE THIS HELP:)

Can't install quicktime or itunes I recieve error code 2738. I'm running windows Vista 32 with Service Pack 2. I have tried old and new version of both programs. Also, have gone through Apple's online help with no good outcome

Can't install quicktimeor uninstall it for that matter and itunes I receive error code 2738 with both downloads. I'm running Window Vista with Service Pack 2. I have check for all window update. I have gone through Apple itune help list. Even going into cmd to do regsvr32 vbscript.dll which was successfull. Can you help...my son had to register his ipod at the neighbors house..What going on.
Son even call apple with no help and was give Microsoft number no help there either they wanted me to call HP.....run around

Excellent news!
Strange how sometimes the fixit works better than the manual methods, and sometimes the manual methods work better than the fixit. It differs from Microsoft fixit to Microsoft fixit too. (Unfortunately, because these "anomalous 2738s" are pretty rare as install errors go, I don't have a good feel yet for whether or not it's the fixit or the manual method that's more likely to work in iTunes/QuickTime installation contexts.)
Afraid I'm not very good on earbud troubleshooting, but fingers crossed the folks over at the iPod communities might be able to help:

My old iPod Photo sync'd with 10.6 but won't with my new iMac running 10.7, I get an error message, am I done?

My old iPod Photo sync'd with 10.6 but won't with my new iMac running 10.7, I get an error message and a message that it could not sync, am I done?

What's the error message say, exactly? Does the error occur when you sync, or when you just connect it? Does the iPod appear in the iTunes sidebar (under DEVICES), or does this error occur before that can happen?
I have an old 4th Gen (color screen) iPod, which should be the same as an "iPod Photo." It's been sitting idle for a while, but I just connected it to my iMac running Mac OS X 10.7 and iTunes 10.6.1. I think it's the first time I tried since upgrading to Lion. It connected and synced fine using USB.

Error code 0x8002006e burn issue

Hi, I have read all the threads on this issue and no answer.
Apparently this is happening a lot. I have burned one cd-r that worked on my new mac pro, (month old) and now I cannot burn anymore without the error code 0x8002006e unable to verify. I can although reinsert the disk and it will read and can open random files, but who trusts a disk with errors??
I have shut down all programs to burn the disk and have restarted my finder.
I've used Sony CD-R's and Memorex DVD-R which both worked fine on Tiger on my other computer,my pc dell laptop and my external duplicator.
Running 10.5.2 all updated installed.
I have wasted about 7 cd-r / dvd-r both. I have the standard superdrive from apple, and I have installed a pioneer from an old imac g4, (apple techs said it was compatible), and received the error in both drives. I can burn via my external lightscribe duplicator and it works great.
Apple doesn't reopen until Monday and hopefully it's an issue that can be resolved now.
Any suggestions would be wonderful!!! Unfortunately the nearest Apple store is 2 hours away

I'm having this problem with CD-Rs on my new iMac. So far 3 good burns from the Finder against 5 bad. The first 4 failures died with 0x8002006E and the most recent with "Burning the disc failed because communication to the disc drive failed. (Error code 0x80020022)". Visually all the burns failed with about the same amount of the diskwritten. The DiscRecording.log visible in the Console app shows the writes failing at the same spot (except for the first which is a nonsense number):
+Finder: Write (10), block: 4294967146, count: 32 -> 3/0C/00 Medium Error, Write error+
+Finder: Write (10), block: 94240, count: 32 -> 3/0C/00 Medium Error, Write error+
+Finder: Write (10), block: 94080, count: 32 -> 3/0C/00 Medium Error, Write error+
+Finder: Write (10), block: 94144, count: 32 -> 3/0C/00 Medium Error, Write error+
The last failure showed this:
+Finder: Burn sense: 4/09/01 Hardware Error, Tracking servo failure+
+Finder: Burn error: 0x80020022 The device failed to respond properly, unable to recover or retry.+
Which is beginning to look like a hardware or firmware failure (some other forums seem to suggesting that the problem started with a firmware upgrade). I'll be checking with Apple support directly.
One other oddity, I've tried selecting 8x burn speed - the default is 24x - but DiscRecording.log records this in every case:
+Finder: Requested burn speed was max, actual burn speed is 24x.+
For the record I'm not using a particularly reputable brand of media (Infiniti's from www.medea.co.uk, bought locally) because I thought I'd start with the cheap ones and work up. Messages in this forum and others suggest that the 0x8002006e problem occurs with all brands of media so I'm not confident that upgrading would fix the problem.

Error Code: "The disc can't be burned because an unexpected error occurred (error code 0x8002006E).

I cannot burn items to a disc and get the following error code; "The disc can’t be burned because an unexpected error occurred (error code 0x8002006E)."
I appreciate any help in trying to figure this out.

"I also use the application "Clean My Mac" at least ounce a month to rid it of all unwanted or unneeded files, which also is supposed to keep my Mac running at optimum speed, just as a by-the-way."
There is your problem right there!!!
CleanMyMac is complete and total paid ""garbageware"!!!!
You may have irreparably damaged/corrupted and/or deleted important/needed system and OS X operational files using CleanMyMac.
You can try and use this uninstaller to completely uninstall CleanMyMac, but the damage to your system may have already happened and has been done
since you readily admit to using this garbageware regularly on your Mac.
Here is the proper way to uninstall both CleanMyMac and CleanMyMac2.
http://macpaw.com/support/cleanmymac-classic/knowledgebase/how-to-uninstall-clea nmymac-classic
http://macpaw.com/support/cleanmymac/knowledgebase/how-to-uninstall-cleanmymac-2
Make sure which version of CleanMyMac you are using and pick the correct uninstaller.
Do you run any other so-called hard drive "maintenance" or "cleaning" apps or any type of commercial antivirus softwares?
If you do, you need to search the web to find out how to correctly and properly uninstall these types of apps.
You now may need to get yourself another external hard drive, purchase and use a data cloning app, such as CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper to create a exact bootable clone of your Mac's internal hard drive to a new external hard drive.
Then erase and reformat your boot drive and do a complete, clean reinstall of you OS X system, system and security updates as well as a complete reinstall of all of your applications and updates.
Let this be a very important lesson to you!
Apps like MacKeeper or any other maintenance apps like CleanMyMac 1 or 2, TuneUpMyMac, MacCleanse or anything like these apps, installed on your Mac, while they appear to be helpful, can do too good a job of data "cleanup" causing the potential to do serious data corruption or data deletion and render a perfectly running OS completely dead and useless leaving you with a frozen, non-functional Mac.
Plus, these type of apps aren't really necessary OR needed. They really aren't.
There are manual methods to clear off unnecessary data off of your Mac that are safer and you have complete control over your Mac and not just leave a piece of auto cleaning software in charge of clearing off data off of your Mac. Their potential of causing OS X issues outweighs the implied good and benefits these types of hard drive or memory "cleaning" apps are written to do.
These types of system 'cleaning" apps are very poorly written and are really a scam to rob newbie and novice Mac users of their hard earned cash for a poorly written maintenance program that will do much more harm to a perfectly normal running OS X system than the good that the app developers purport these types of apps will do.
Plus, the software companies that write these apps make it hard to easily uninstall these apps if something DOES go wrong and these apps work in a way where you have no recovery or revert function to return your Mac back to its former, working state in the event something does go wrong.
It is best to never, EVER download and install these types of apps.
The risk to your system and important data is too great a risk!
Here is a proper and manual methodology to "cleaning" data off of your Mac.
Here are some general tips to keep your Mac's hard drive trim and slim as possible
You should never, EVER let a conputer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
Have you emptied your Mac's Trash icon in the Dock?
If you use iPhoto or Aperture, both have its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
If you are an iMovie user, iMovie has its own individual Trash location that needs to be emptied, too!
If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
Look through your other Mailboxes and other Mail categories to see If there is other mail you can archive and/or delete.
STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
To find other large files, download an app called Omni Disk Sweeper.
http://www.omnigroup.com/more
Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
http://www.titanium.free.fr/downloadonyx.php
When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.

Why is the Error Code 0x8002006E While Burning the Disc?

Hey there! I don't seem to get through this Issue. I was trying to burn content to a Disc and it failed with the error code 0x8002006E, while the process was almost complete. I came across a few forums and nothing helped much to resolve this problem. Is there someone who knows the exact cause? Is this is a known-issue or anything already being addressed by Apple? Or a work-around to get this resolved? because i also read (did not try) that no third-party applications, as an alternative, solved this Issue. Disappointed! Help!
Model: iMac (21.5-inch, Mid 2011)
OS: Lion OS X 10.7.4
I have the latest software updates and Firmware updates installed.
Thank you,

I found this article excerpt:
The few solution that where found where by calling at Apple and get technical support. There are a few solutions that might work.
The first one would be Go to users > your computer name / user name > library > Preferences > com.apple.finder.plist and delete this file. Also it’s advised to keep the burn speed at 8x.
The second solution found that Apple technical support gave is to unplug everything, including the AC power cord and then remove the battery. Press the power button for 10 seconds without replacing the battery or attaching the AC power cord and after the 10 seconds are up replace the battery. After the battery is in slot hold down the following keys with the left hand: Option + Apple (command) + R and with the right hand hold down the following keys: P + Power Button. You will need to hold all 5 of these buttons at the same time until you hear both sets of startup chimes Release all of the 5 buttons after you hear the two startup chime sounds.
Hope this helps

I am getting error code 0x8002006E when trying to burn a DVD

Hi, I am running the latest Lion update, on my MB Pro, and keep getting the error code 0x8002006E when trying to burn a DVD. Could this be a dirty lens issue in the drive. I see that many others have had the same problem, but relly cant seem to find anyone that has a solution that works.. Help

It's an error thrown by Mac OS X's DiscRecording framework (as opposed to an error communicated by the drive's firmware). The message is (as you probably saw)
"The burn failed because of a medium write error."
Could this be a dirty lens issue in the drive.
I don't think there's one single cause for this error. It might be a dirty lens. It might be something else. Not all recordable optical discs work well with all burners. Try a different brand.

HT1925 I receive error code 2349 when trying to install iTunes. Any idea what that code means and how to correct?

receive error code 2349 when trying to install iTunes. Any idea what that code means and how to correct?

It's a better bet with a 2330, but the first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

How do I resolve Error code 0x8002006E

I have been photo files to disks for a long time with no problem. Now I am getting the error message that the disk cannot be completed because of an error and receive error code 0x002006E. Every once in a while I can get it to work, but most of the time it does not. I am throwing away lots of disks. I use an iMac with OS 10.9 Mavericks. Thanks, valykae.

Yes, my interpretation is that he is burning photos to a CD or DVD, so the error probably relates to a Superdrive problem. But this is pretty speculative without more info. The "throwing away lots of disks" suggests optical media these days. And I don't recognize nor can I find that error code.

TS3694 i was updating my iphone to 6.1.3 and received error code 6 would some help me with this error

im updating my iphone 4 to the latest update and received error code 6 would someone tell me what is this?

Hello, Joyce.
Error 6 can be tricky. It usually is related to a 3rd party software conflict like security software or a modification of your TCP/IP protocol. It the article that you referenced, iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting, see the section labeled "Errors related to third-party security software". Go ahead and try the first two of that section. If that does not work an uninstall of your antivirus software or attempting to restore on a new computer might be necessary. I have included the links to those steps below.
