Sattelite a205-5500 itunes will not burn cd

i had toshiba remote acces my computer cause the computer kept saying it couldnt find a dvd/rom so they got that straight but when i try to use itunes a message keeps poping up saying that it cant find the information in the registry for the cd burner, and to reinstall itunes. So i have done that about three times so far and it always comes back to the same message, so I think I have a regirsrty problem please help I am not real computer savy, thank you

trying to do the update it said: this firmware is not compatible with the selected drive.
the itunes message i get is: the registery settings used by the itunes driver for importing and burning cds and dvds are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other cd burning software. please reinstall itunes.
so i went to my device manager and got some details IF that helps:
dvd/cd-rom drives
mat**bleep**a dvd-ram uj-850s ATA
driver details
driver files
c:\windows\system32\drivers\cdrom.sys
driver version 6.0.6001.18000
thank you so much for helping, computers are definetly my strong point

My itunes will not burn cd. telling me new burning software added may cause this

I recently had Windows Vista put on my computer. I had Roxio put on it also. I tunes will not burn my playlist because of this. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing itunes . this does not correct the problem. I tuunes is telling me there is no disc burner found.

Hello bacovino,
From what you describe it sounds like you are getting this error message when trying to burn a CD in iTunes even after uninstalling the iTunes application:
"Warning! The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes."
I recommend uninstalling not only iTunes but its associated softwares as well, as outlined in the following article:
iTunes for Windows: "Registry settings" warning when opening iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3299
iTunes installs a device filter which helps it work with your optical drive. If this device filter is missing, you will see the message mentioned above. To resolve this issue, follow the steps below to reinstall iTunes and put the device filter back in place:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
If the issue persists after re installing iTunes again, there is additional troubleshooting in the article that involves installing the device filter in Windows, which it walks you through.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

My iTunes will not burn a lot of my music as MP3s

I am trying to create a MP3 cd with music from my iTunes.
Most of the music is from CDs.
But it doesn't seem to matter what format the music originally came in (imported) as because some of it can be turned into MP3s and some of it can not.
Please tell me what to do in this situation. I know that some of the music from iTunes music store will only allow me to burn a certain amount of times before it does not allow me to anymore. However, I have never burned any of my purchased music to a CD yet. Also, most of the music that I want to burn into MP3 format onto a disc is from my own personal CD collection.
Is there anything I can do. The problem is that my girlfriend's MP3 player is not an iPod so that I need to make the music MP3 and not MP4 because the player she has only reads MP3s.

What format is my music converted to when I import from CD?
that depends on what you have set in your itunes importing preferences tab. for some more info on that, see:
iTunes 6: How to Choose Import Options
for a little more info about the different file formats see:
iTunes: About import settings and hard disk space

Itunes will not burn the order I want.

details: (a) itunes 10 (b) 2011 13'' macbook pro (c) not a noob
1) create playlist folder in itunes.
2) add songs to folder.
3) put songs in desired order.
4) burn playlist to cd.
5) playback cd and discover order is incorrect.
6) look on internet for help - hours later, discover there is none.
7) bust cd in rage - vacuum up shards.
8) start looking for alternatives to itunes.
mood: dispondent

In step 5, did you play the CD in your computer or in a CD player? If you play in your computer, it will play in the order selected by the highlighted column in list view. I invested a CD and 10 minutes to show you this.
Here is the paylist sorted by track number.
Here is the CD as it first appears in iTunes after burning. Notice that it is sorted by album. I didn't yet select a sort column but it appeared sorted by album with the album column checked.
Here is the CD sorted by track number.
Here is the CD opened in Finder. Note the track numbers correspond to the burn playlist. This is the order they will play in a CD player.
Next time, try playing in in your CD player before resorting to steps 7 and 8.

ITunes will not burn or import CDs

I recently installed iTunes 7. Out of nowhere it won't Burn or import CDs. When I open iTunes a message states "can't burn or import because CD Configuration folder is not in the same folder as iTunes". My CD configuration folder is in the same folder as my iTunes folder. I attempted to reinstall iTunes, but with no avail. Then I deleted the CD Configuration folder and iTunes Setup folder, then I reinstalled iTunes, but again I had no success. If you have any pointers please inform me. I'm really confused because what iTunes is telling me is wrong, is actually how it is supposed to be. Recently I've downloaded a DVD Ripping Software and Nero Software, so perhaps that has something to do with it. But anyway if you have any solutions let me know.

Hi Innonut;
You are asking your iTune question on the Leopard forum. If you would report in the Windows iTunes Forum, you might get more response there.

ITunes will not burn playlists after loading the ION USB Turntable software

Loaded EZ vinyl converter, which allows copying of LPs and importing them into ITunes. All went well with first album and it can be played on my computer. I cannot burn a disc- either the LP I loaded or music already there.
The discs are good.
Any others with this issue?
Any solutions?

All my LP downloads go well and they sound great over the computer's speakers, but I can't burn anything, either from iTunes or from Windows Media Player.
I even deleted the turntable software and tried burning, with no luck.
And, I haven't gotten a response from the ION folks.
I don't want to take the computer to my local fixer, only to find that there's a simple software solution.

My itunes will not burn CD's...everytime I attempt to burn a CD it gets to the finishing disk point and says it is unable to burn the disk

Each time i attempt to burn a CD, it quits right before it is finished and flashes an "error" message. if i try to play the CD it show up with how many song are on the disk, but no music plays.

Try a different disc manufacture. I have good luck with Maxell.
And make sure the disc is free of smudges and finner prints so the optical disk can write data to it.

One song will NOT burn onto any cd

up until now i have never encountered such a problem. one song that i purchased from iTunes will not burn onto a cd. i've never had troubles before with any other song, just this one. i've tried complaining to the itunes help but i got some lame answer that didn't help at all. could it be possible to have the itunes store allow me to download it again without paying for it, i think they let me download a corrupt song. why would they do that?

My very strong advice is to give up. Certainly don't waste another second messing about with tags. I have not seen one scrap of evidence to suggest they have any effect.
From my experience, the only chance you have of getting it matched is to alter the waveform of your track so that it matches that on the store. I assume that yours is a different mastering or something. I'm no expert, bit I'd guess that your chances of hitting on the right adjustments could be best expressed as zero.

I am trying to burn some cds from my playlist on itunes, but my playlist shows many of my songs in light print and says that it will not burn because it is not a file, these are all songs I have purchased quite a while ago, how do i get them to files?

If they were songs you purchased from itunes, try redownloading them from your purchases...
if that doednt work, make sure the optuon to copy files to itunes media folder is checked in settings, then find and download from the net. and re-add them to your library

Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
... and click "Next".
When you get through to the final screen:

ITunes will not copy certain songs to my iPhone - I'm "not authorized for it on this computer"

Hi. I get an error when I try to transfer certain songs from my computer to my iPhone. I get the following error, "(song name) was not copied to iPhone "____" because you are not authorized for it on this computer." For the particular songs for which this error comes up, I purchased them many years ago. I had them on my PC and transferred them to my iPhone just fine. I recently got rid of the PC and bought a Mac Mini (yay!) and copied my files over to the new computer. Then, I connected my iPhone to the Mini and synced it. Then, I noticed that there were some songs on my phone that I didn't want on it so I unchecked them in the Library on the Mini and chose the "sync only checked songs" option and synced again. Nothing changed. So, then I did an Autofill thinking that would make the selected songs on my Mini and matched the songs I wanted on my iPhone. That's when I noticed the songs missing on my iPhone (songs that I had selected on my Mini and wanted on the iPhone). I've never really been able to figure out how to work iTunes so I'm sure I've done something wrong. I can't decifer the error message so your help would be greatly appreciated. (I've authorized the Mini.)
Any ideas what the problem might be? Thanks in advance.

Hi there!
I've a very similar & the same problem but for me this has been happening ever since iTunes 7.1.5, so not exclusively since 7.2 was launched
In addition to the same problem you're having, iTunes will not sync any of my converted DVD movies and several video podcasts giving me the same error message you mentioned. If it try to play these video's out side of iTunes with QuickTime, I get 'Error -36: An I/O Error' warning and thats it, but I can play with any other media player including the dreaded Windows Media Player! If I copy these files on to a separate HHD, Flash Stick or on to another PC (i.e. so they’re played from not in the iTunes folder in my documents) they all work fine and oddly also with QuickTime, so I'm happy the files are not corrupt. I'm afraid to attempt to play any remaining video's that I managed to sync sometime before this problem in iTunes because when I do, its then that I can never use it again and it gets removed from my iPod!
I can't find anything on this problem anywhere, and I don't know where to go to get help from Apple not that I’m sure they’d be too helpful?
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Regards
Jaime

ITunes Will Not Recognize My CD/DVD Drive In My Windows Vista PC.

All,
I was forced to migrate to a new PC for work. It is running Windows Vista Enterprise. Since receiving the PC, iTunes will not recognize my CD/DVD Drive. I receive the following error message:
"Warning, The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CD's and DVD's are missing....." etc.
I have completed the following troubleshooting steps with no success:
1. Deleted upper and lower filters in the registry per the Microsoft fix from their web site.
2. Completely uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes/Quicktime/Etc.
3. Uninstalled and reinstalled the CD/DVD Drive
4. Verified that other programs recognize and can burn to my CD/DVD drive. I have Windows Media Player and Roxio Creator Basic installed.
5. Verified that Windows Vista recognizes my CD/DVD drive.
6. Installed the GEAR driver recommended on the Apple Support page for this issue.
All of my music in is iTunes and I prefer to burn my CD's via iTunes. I have read that several people are having this issue.
Does anyone have a solution? There has to be a fix out there somewhere.
I can downgrade to XP but it will take an "Act Of Congress" for my corporate IT group to send me the XP downgrade CD.
Any solutions or recommendations are great appreciated.
