TA38263 i have no burn option in preferences?

i do not have a "burn" option in preferences - anyone know why

Yes, those settings were rearranged in recent releases of iTunes.
Now, you open the playlist you want to burn, and use the command File > Burn Playlist to Disc.  This brings up the "Burn Settings" dialog where can check your preferences for that burn.
Check the boxes as you wish, and then click the button for "Burn."

    You can burn a playlist only. Right click in one, press Burn and wait

  • TA38263 My itunes doesn't have a 'burning' section under preferences.

    I am trying to burn an audio CD. Every time I try, it appears to burn on my lap top, although when played back in a car, or other CD player, it hasn't actually worked. After reading up on it, I hve discvered there is no burning button under preferences on itunes. How do I get this? Please help!

    The burning preferences were moved out of the Preferences menu several releases ago.  Now, you can set them in the dialog that comes up when you select "Burn Playlist to Disc."
    If the CD does not work, there are several possible causes.  Try the following:
    Make sure you are using CD-R blanks, not CD-RW.  The latter frequently have problems in regular CD players.
    Make sure you have selected to burn an Audio CD (not MP3 CD or Data CD).
    Burn an audio CD with some other program on your computer, to make sure your CD drive is OK.
    In iTunes, use a lower burning speed, and also try a different brand of CD-R blank.

  • TA38263 there is no burn tab in preferences

    I have called up preferences but there is no burn tab. How doI fix this

    Hello Glesga,
    In the newer version of iTunes, there is no Burn tab in the preferences. If you are trying to burn a CD take a look at this article.

  • Creative MediaSource doesn't have the Burn opt

    I recently bought a new Dell desktop. And with it came Creative MeadiaSource. I went to burn a CD and there wasn't that option. So I looked under the Help to make sure you could, well it shows a picture of a CD with a little flame and it says Burn. Is there a way to get my MediaSource to have the burn option?
    <IMG src="http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/f392/xdarkxcloudx/CMSToolbar.jpg">

    I don't know what player you have but you can get the CD Burner plugin from the downloads page for most of the Creative players such as Muvo Micro or Zen Micro.
    Go to Support->Downloads and choose your player or one of the ones I've listed.
    When you get to the downloads page look for Creative MediaSource Plugin for CD Burner 3.0.8
    If you haven't got a new enough version of MediaSource you can get that there as well.

  • My numbers program created on my mac version 3.0 won't work on my ipad version 2.0. It says I have to save the file with preview option but there is no such option in preferences. Any thoughts?

    my spreadsheet created with numbers program version 3.0 created on my mac won't work on my ipad version 2.0. It says I have to save the file with preview option but there is no such option in preferences. Any thoughts?

    For the update to run Aperture must be installed in the system Application folder and named simply Aperture, not Aperture3.2.2 or anything else.
    I don't know if this would also affect photo stream but if your Aperture is misnamed or installed in an incorrect location fixing that to see if it clears up the problem would be a good first step.

  • HT4946 iTunes shows I have an encrypted backup under preferences.   It's got the pad lock. When I click restore the encrypted backup is not an option. I've been test MDM products and may have caused this. How do I restore the encrypted backup.

    iTunes shows I have an encrypted backup under preferences.   It's got the pad lock. When I click restore the encrypted backup is not an option. I've been test MDM products and may have caused this. How do I restore the encrypted backup.

    I just came here today to ask the same question.
    I have an iPod Gen2 with version 4.2.1 iOS, and iTunes 11.0.2.26
    My iPod Touch was running sluggish so I backed up and selected the "Encrypt local backup" to "back up account passwords used on my iPod".
    I selected a password for this backup and restored my iPod Touch.
    When I went to restore from backup, that encrypted backup is not available on the drop down list.
    However, if I go to the top of ITunes and click "Edit", "Preferences" "Device", it shows the back up with the pad lock on it.
    I thought I was being smart backing up with encryption to back up account passwords, but now I have lost everything.
    So many people have the issue where it asks for a password when they never told iTunes to do an encrypted backup and here we are with an encrypted backup, and we know the password, but we don't get the option to restore from it.

  • After Burning options:: Disk Utility and Using Finder

    I have a Burning Question.
    When burning from the Finder, the dialog box I get doesn't have the same options and the dialog box when using Disk Utility.  Is this normal?  Is there a way to have the options available in the Finder dialog box??  It would be convenient to have the Finder eject the disk after burning, but I can't seem to find a way to turn on that option.
    Screen shot using Disk Utility::
    Screen shot using the Finder::
    Am I missing something?  I can't find anything in Preferences to adjust the After Burning options while using the Finder to burn.
    Can someone shed some light on this??  Thank you.

    Are you saying then that the dialog boxes I get are normal (as shown in my screen shots)? And, those options are not available using the Finder?  There is no way to change the preferences for the Finder burning method?
    So, whatever options you have set in Disk Utility with carry over to the Finder automatically?
    Also, I noticed there is no way to set these options without performing an actual burn??  I tried to change the check from Mount to Eject and it doesn't stick (I chose Cancel), so I'm guessing it only sticks if you actually burn a disc.
    Correct?

  • Can't see blank cds or dvds, no burn options

    I recently started organizing my photos from the past year and wanted to burn them to a cd or dvd as an archive. I found that whenever I insert a blank cd or dvd I get music or video options but no burn option, and no icons show up on my desktop. The only way that I have been able to burn media is to create a burn folder and then insert a blank disk. These then show up on my hard drive but don't see visible on my b&w g3 or my husbands non mac pc. All of this is off a clean reinstall of system software and upgrades to 10.4.4

    Take a look at your CDs & DVDs System Preferences. What options are specified for what happens when you insert blank CDs or DVDs? If you want to burn disks with files & folders on them, set it to "Open Finder". You will then be prompted to give your disk a name when you put it in. If you get the music option, you'd have to next open iTunes and burn a music CD from iTunes. Mac OS X will reserve a disk like this and not show it in the finder because it thinks you want to open iTunes and burn your music from there.
    A DVD burned on a Mac will not be usable in a Windows PC. Because they hold more information, they'll be formatted as a Mac OS Extended format disk. Without some third party software, a Mac formatted disk like this is not readable by a Windows PC. However, a standard data CD burned by the Finder should be. It will be a "hybrid" Mac OS Extended/ISO9660 disk that should be readable by both a Mac and a Windows PC. It's possible the type of CD-R disks you're using don't work well with your PC's optical drive, you might try a different brand. Since the Blue & White G3 was constructed before CD-Rs or DVD±R/RWs were invented, it's likely it may not be able to read those kidns of disks as well.

  • Suggestion to Apple - change burn options

    When you click on "Burn" in iTunes I think Apple should allow an instant pull down to select either "Audio" or "mp3" option to burn instead of burrying it under a tab in Preferences. I have been burned (pardon the pun) by this a few times. Yes I know you can select you files and drag to a CD mounted on the desktop and then you get them in mp3 format or simply click on burn and you get the audio version, but I think the option I'm talking about would make more sense. Who is with me?

    Send them feedback, like I did.
    Use this page: http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/
    Don't use the iTunes feedback. This only brings you to the Music Request page.
    About a month ago, another idea about a wanted 'burning' feature was discussed here:

  • How do I take the zoom feature off my MacBook Pro? I have already went to System Preferences and turned "zoom" off in the Universal Access. I saw where someone said to use THREE fingers to double click... ??? Double click what? And 3 fingers?

    Can someone help me?How do I take the zoom feature off my MacBook Pro? I have already went to System Preferences and turned "zoom" off in the Universal Access. I saw where someone said to use THREE fingers to double click... ??? Double click what? And 3 fingers?

    What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization.  With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options.  If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast.  I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
    What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why?  How is this making it a better program?  I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was).  But to not give users the option to delete that list?  It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating.  I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature.  It smacks of rank incompetence.
    What improvement were they trying to make here anyway?  There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions.  Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
    And reverting to a previous version is no solution.  I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS.

  • WHY does the finder insist on rearranging the files in a folder in alphabetical order even when I have selected "none" in the preferences for file organization?

    WHY does the finder insist on rearranging the files and/or documents in a folder in alphabetical order even when I have selected "none" in the preferences for file organization? Even after I numbered the documents/folders to keep them in my preferred order, it will still displace them occasionally. This is becoming increasingly frustrating!
    Is this a "Pages" issue or "FInder"? The vast majority of documents I use are in Pages, but there are also Numbers, PDFs, jpegs and a few other applications involved. This never happened before I upgraded to Mountain Lion; in Tiger, the documents (mostly Appleworks) and files stayed where I wanted them to be.
    I am visually oriented, and prefer to arrange items in a folder in an order that makes them easier for me to access, which is often NOT alphabetical.
    Can anyone suggest a solution? Please??
    Thank you.
    Sara

    nbar,
    Thank you for your reply.
    However, I do not understand what you mean by "user account." I am the only user, and can find no options for "user" or "guest." The parental controls have always been off, as there are no other people who have access to my computer.
    Frank,
    Thank you for your reply.
    All my documents, files and folders are in icon view, Arranged By: none in both view and view options. This arbitrary rearranging does not happen all the time, only when I make a substantial change to one of the documents in the file or folder. I'm not sure what you mean by "column heading."
    MichaelLAX,
    Thank you for your reply.
    I know, to my sorrow, that Appleworks does not work with Mountain Lion. I spent at least three months converting approximately 2,000 Appleworks documents to Pages, Numbers, Bento (for databases) and Touchdraw (for drawings). So this is not the problem; but as I said, I did not have this rearranging problem with Appleworks - the icons stayed where I wanted them to be. I still miss the ease and reliability of Appleworks, darn it!
    Frank,
    Thank you for your second reply.
    I do have the Sort By: in view options as well as in view set to "none."   The finder still insists on rearranging, but only when I have made a substantial change to a document in that file or folder.
    Any futher thoughts?
    xdab, 
    Thank you for your reply.
    "Are you are using icon view, but for some reason the finder moves files around? is that the problem?"
    YES!! This is exactly the problem.
    "If this operation is successful then erase the original and rename the new one to the name originally chosen by the user."
    This seems like a lot of trouble, especially as I often work on several documents at the same time.
    "By the way, the finder has a "clean up by" menu that rearranges icons in one of the standard orders, there are shortcuts that produce the same effect, for example <option><cmd>1 sorts them by name. Is it possible that this shortcut was typed by mistake without you noticing?"
    I do know about this "clean up by" option, and avoid it like the plague! So I doubt this is the issue, and I infrequently use keyboard shortcuts like this anyway.
    Thanks all who replied. None of the suggestions seem to work, however. Any others out there?
    Regards,
    Sara

  • My issue started as ACR grayed out in Bridge using PS CC. No option in preference to open in Camera Raw.

    My issue started as ACR grayed out in Bridge using PS CC. No option in preferences to open in Camera Raw. After browsing this forum I downloaded the most recent ACR and installed. Now Bridge stalls on the "building crieria" screen. There is a message to purge the cache but that screen stalls as well. I have force quite multiple times and re-started. Any suggestions?

    As far as i know, photoshop cs2 and adobe bridge 1 (cs2) could not open jpegs or tiffs into camera raw, only camera raw files.
    I believe photoshop cs3 was the first version to allow jpegs to be opened in camera raw.
    Are you sure you had photoshop cs2 before?
    If on the other hand, you can't open camera raw files that you used to be able to open, then you probably just need to update the camera raw plugin to version 3.7

  • Share - Burn option in IPhoto - not working like I thought it would

    Hi
    I have selected 67 photos in iphoto - totalling 206MB in size. I want to burn these to a CD Rom to give to a friend to use as jpegs
    I select Share - Burn and insert a blank CD ROM
    I get the error message "There is not enough space on the disc to burn all the photos you selected."
    But the disk can take 700MB????
    Then I try by exporting the same photos to a folder on my mac, and then burning these to the CDROM outside of iPhoto - and that works fine
    So why does the SHARE - BURN option not work in iPhoto in this way?
    Many thanks

    The Share -> Burn option creates a "mini" iPhoto Library on the disk, including all the versions, thumbnails, databases and so on. It's designed for sharing with another iPhoto user.
    If you just want to share the photos the File -> Export option is the way to go.
    Regards

  • Burn Option - Type of Disk Can't Find - iTunes8

    Hi Forum Members;
    Just downloaded iTunes 8 and from what I've read it was a very bad idea.
    Took a while to find the Import menu, however, *I can't find the Burn Option re disk type, e.g. mp3, data disk, etc.*
    I also found an excellent post on how to remove it and return to previous version. Next solution.
    Why they would change the menu?
    Appreciate the help, katydidit

    The burn options appear when you choose to burn a disc. Highlight the playlist you want to burn and insert a blank disc. Click on the "Burn Disc" button and the options panel will appear, choose the setting you want and click Burn. This new option means that you can burn each disc you insert with an individual setting without having to go into preferences and change the global one as you did previously.
