Still can't burn music

I have been using the same computer, burner, and types of cd's for around three years now. It wasn't until the most recent itunes update (the one with the new desktop icon), that I haven't been able to burn cd's. It will start initializing, then a message pops up saying there is a problem and itunes shuts down. I using a Dell with Windows XP, but I also tried to burn on my lapytop which uses Vista and the same problem occurs.

Good lord ... that's the first time I've seen that show up in a burning context with iTunes 10.1.0.54. Usually it has been with importing and converting (when using the AAC encoding) and syncing to devices (when using the convert to 128 kbps AAC option.
What I've typically been doing with people with that is trying to get a version 7.9.3.0 version of the CoreAudioToolbox.dll onto their systems, replacing the version 7.9.4.0 of the dll that came with Apple Application Support 1.4 (which is included in the installer for iTunes 10.1.0.54.
We don't have as many options for doing that on XP as on Vista or 7. The following is probably the most practical.
First, uninstall your iTunes 10.1.0.54 and your Apple Application Support 1.4.
Next download and install a Safari version 5.0.2. That should install an Apple Application Support version 1.3.2:
http://www.apple.com/safari/download/
Now open the following folder:
C:\Program files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\
There should be a copy of CoreAudioToolbox in there. Check to make sure it's a version 7.9.3.0. If it is, stash a copy on your desktop.
Now install iTunes 10.1.0.54 (That will update your Apple Application Support back to 1.4). Drag your CoreAudioToolbox.dll from the desktop, back into the folder:
C:\Program files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\
... replacing the copy in there.
Try a burn. Does it go through without the error this time?
(If everything seems to be working again, feel free to uninstall Safari if you don't want it.)

Downloaded 8.2 and still can't burn...

I burned a disc right after I downloaded the new version hoping that it finally take of the burn problem. It took forever but it finally spit out a disc. 8 tracks long and it played until track 7 then nothing. track 8 and 1-6 all play so I thought I would try another one. I made a play list and started the burn and it kicked out with a error code 4020 message. That's a new one but not surprising. What really bums me is that I spent a $50 gift card on new music after x-mas and still can't burn any of it.

Are you able to download apps?
If so, have you checked that the Apps tab is selected under preferences in iTunes?

Fixed. /Users/x/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/AirKeysInputManager.bundle got corrupted by a badly installed safari extension. Deleting this, then reinstalling adobe air did the trick. I wasn't thorough enough on my first try, it was tricky to find everything associated. I had to look for files in the console log then search for them. Spotlight was missing some deep files, EasyFind worked better for me.

Downgraded to iTunes 4.9 and STILL can't burn! Hilfe!!!

Now there's a new twist. I downgraded to iTunes 4.9 as some have suggested and I still can't burn CDs. Now I get a error message telling me that the brand new disk I put in is full, and then a second error message comes up shortly thereafter telling me that my startup disk is almost full. But I know that there's nearly 692 megs of disk space available.
What is the story? I've never had this problem before!!!!

Ray,
run Disk Utility and fix permissions - you also might use a tool like Cocktail and run a full system maintenance through "Pilot"

How can I burn music from my iTunes library to CD, while still keeping the track info intact?

I made several CDs for a friend, but when my friend imported the disc into iTunes none of the track names showed up (it just said "Track 1", "Track 2", etc.) This is annoying because it was 8 CDs worth of music (over 150 songs!)
Is there a software or any tool I can use that will allow me to burn music for friends, while still keeping the track info intact?

Yes. Click on this link to purchase gift cards for your friends. They will get nice new tracks with all correct tags.

I still can not burn my music ...Not Happy!

I have been there done that and I am getting NO WHERE? I can not burn my music still I have been through several disks, and have tried all trouble shooting suggested by iTunes. I have had my Dell Support tech team run all dianostics , update all my drivers, ect... My other media software burns just fine.
This all started about 1 month ago while I was in the itunes store and received a prompt to upgrade my itunes, I did the upgrade and have not been able to burn "My Music" I bought from itunes. This is a shame that the itune support team can not find a fix to their customers needs! I have spent hours on this problem!!
Does anyone out there know of another Music site that I can join? Make sure to send a support email to the itunes support team... I am going to ask for my money back for my music and move on from this whole apple/itunes BS real soon! There Customer Support is good for nothing and does not seem to care,,,isn't it strange how apple phone support does not support itunes! They are going to lose a lot of customers and money...I don't get it??
Does anyone get it??

Same here. I have a jailbroken iPhone 3G running on 4.0.1 and iTunes 9.2.1 - iTunes tells me the phone is syncing. The phone says "Sync in Progress" but after it is done, zilt! nothing! nada!
Has anyone with the same configs figured out a solution?
Thanks

Still can't burn a DVD

I followed the suggestions by many to upgrade my Pioneer DVR 104 to the latest DVR 111, since I haven't been able to burn a DVD using either Toast 7 or Discribe 5.3.1.8 for about 3 months now. I still get the same results. The DVD goes into the cache mode and the progress bar goes about a quarter of the way before an error message pops up. In Toast (both 6 and 7) the error is -36. "Could not complete the last command because there was an I/O error. In Discribe the error just says "A disc error has occured". BTW, the DVD plays fine, and I've tried many different ones that are also fine.
My system is: G4 Dual 533 1.25gb ram 120gb HD 46gb free OS 10.4.7 Pioneer DVR-111D
Any suggestions? TIA

Everyone - Thank You... I did figure this out finally as someone suggested to try the Verbatim DVD+R DL 2.4x, and this works perfect every time. Kind'a makes me angry that I'm now stuck with the Memorex DVD+R DL's as this was a big expense. OfficeMac has the Verbatim DVD+R DL on sale this week in a 10pack for 19.99, so I figure I'll start with a few. I still can't figure out why the Memorex will not work, and why they read under the Media type in Toast as Ritech or something like that... I'm going to write Memorex on this and see what they say, I should be able to get my money back when it is calearly the disk and not the recorder. BTW this work under Toast 7 and the Normal Apple Burner built in, so I'm sure it is really the Disk's. I wish these things would come down in price soon. Also, and this is weird - I use the Memorex DVD-R 4.7 and DVD+R 4.7 with NO Problems at all.

Itunes 7- Can't burn music to cd

Hello, I sincerely hope I can get some help. I've tried ALL of the tips on here to get iTunes 7 to burn the music I bought to a cd but I keep getting the "Disc Burner Or Software Not Found" error message.
I am able to burn music to cd using WMP 9, (and nero fast burn cd plug in) and when I go to the advanced tab in itunes it recognizes my burner drive.
Here is the diagnostics from itunes:

If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.
Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.

I've seen post in the past about updating your drivers & firmware fixing this...unfortunately I don't know a lot about that. Hopefully this will push your post up in the list & someone elase can chime in...or you can search the discussion and find more information on this.

Can't Burn Music CDs

I have been trying to free up some space on my 30GB ibook hard drive. One thing I wanted to do is get rid of all my music files (which are not plentiful) by burning them to CDs.
In my zeal to clear space I must have deleted something I need because itunes now says it cannot burn music CDs. I have no idea what I dumped that I now need. I am running the lastest version of itunes.
When I searched for disk burning software I was only able to find downloads for data CDs.
Anyone know what I did wrong and how I can fix it?
Thanks!
Abby

You didn't put a recent commercial CD from Sony-BMG in your computer, did you?

STILL can't burn DVDs on Mac OS 10.6.5 after trying everything

Hi there.
Ever since I've updated to 10.6.5, I can't burn DVDs, doesn't matter which brand or what software I use. however, I am able to burn CDs. I went to my local Apple Store and they booted OS 10.6.3 on my computer via firewire and what d'you know ? it burnt a dvd right away. this is clearly an issue with the latest update. I did as they said, reseted my PRAM and even re-installed the latest update (I downloaded the 10.6.5 combo version from Apple Support).
Is anyone experiencing the same ? I know a lot of people had the same issue couple of weeks ago. did anyone successfully overcome it ?
cheers.

This is an older post from the Roxio Community (http://forums.support.roxio.com/topic/39824-toast-burns-cd-but-not-dvd-on-mac/); but seems like similar problem - maybe worth a try:
Either something is preventing the data from being sent to the drive's DVD-writing laser or the drive's laser is failing to start writing the disc. The only thing you can do with Toast is trash the plist and prefs files in the User>Library>Preferences folder and relaunch Toast. You might get a laser-cleaning disc for your drive. (A different laser is used to write CDs than is used to write DVDs). Also try choosing Save as Disc Image with Toast and burn the resulting disc image using the Image File setting in the Toast Copy window.
Note that the laser cleaning idea was also mentioned in the previous link provided. Have you tied that? - would be nice if a simple solution worked.

I can't burn music, or get pass checking media

Sadly I've tried everything I know to get iTunes to burn a CD. I get the
playlist all set up, adjust the preferences, click on burn, then it opens
the CD tray, I put a blank CD-R in, then iTunes says it’s ‘Checking Media’
which it does for a few seconds, then it just stops - no error message or
anything. The little window that says ‘checking media’ just goes back to the
apple symbol and nothing happens. Any others ideas as to what i should do.
I'm just hoping that i'm not the only one with this issue. Thanks

What are you trying to achieve? Are you trying to burn to disk via the iPhoto Share ➙ Burn menu? That produces a mini library on the disk that can be used only by a Mac running iPhoto.
If you want to burn just some image files to a data CD/DVD disk then follow Larry's recommended workflow.
What disk type and manufacturer are your using? What system and iPhoto version are you running? Have you run the OS X Mountain Lion: Use Apple Hardware Test? When did the burning proiblem begin? If you can't burn a disk from the Finder then it's a hardware or system problem and not an iPhoto one.
