Unable to burn CD but succeeding with DVD

My Lappy Model : HP Pavilion 3050tx
It's having a hp cd-dvd writable drive, Firmware : TS-L633N
I'M UNABLE TO WRITE CD
CD burning task completes successfully but when i reinsert that cd it again shows a blank disk.
I use Nero & Power2go
With DVD everything is fine....Burning Reading & so also CD reading
Please, help me out !

Try the troubleshooting on this HP web document. I still lean towards the problem being the quality of the CD discs as it is the most common solution when people run into this issue.
Best regards,

Matshita DVD-R UJ 857-E (unable to burn CDs but reading DVDs and CDs)

I have had the macbook and burner for about three years.
I am unable to burn cds. When I attempt to do so in iTunes or Toast the error message reads "please insert a recordable cd". I have used the same cds to burn on other computers so I believe this is a problem with my drive and not the cds I'm trying to record to.
I am able to burn DVDs in Toast.
Any ideas? I'm looking for a driver right now...

I truly believe this is a software issue. I changed the system settings of the CD/DVD (system profiler) of "when inserting a blank CD to 'open finder' " ( u can use 'ask me' but I didn't have that option) instead of opening iTunes. Once the CD was mounted I was able to burn to the disk in iTunes as well as iPhoto. I was unable to that when I just inserted the disk from the program when prompted.

Unable to Burn Anything to Dual Layer DVD

Greetings,
I have a new Memorex MRX-530LE dual layer burner, and I have verified that I do have the latest firmware from the manufacturer.
I am able to burn dual-layer DVDs with no difficulty using NERO. I am unable to burn a dual-layer DVD backup with iTunes 8. I have verified this with two different brands of DVD+R9 (DL) media, and I have verified that I am easily able to burn backups using single-layer DVD-5 media.
Can anyone verify whether iTunes 8 supports dual-layer at all? I have searched the forum and find nothing more recent than 2006, and am hoping that others have now experienced my situation, since DL media and burners are common today.
Best regards and thanks in advance,
Scott

Hi. I am having the same problem. I have already done one backup and I want to do an incremental backup, but when I insert the DL+ disc it tells me that I will need 14 disc. My itunes is only 6.5 gigs?
I think it's a bug.

Unable to burn and watch videos on DVD because of locked files?

I have an Imac G5 a few years old and have just installed Leopard. I have been trying to burn some videos onto a DVD but after it is burnt, I cannot open the videos. I think it is because the original file was locked. I then discovered that all files were locked. I go to Get info on each folder and unlock it. I also unlocked the folder with the videos before burning it to DVD. Still I cannot open the videos on the DVD. Somehow the folders stay locked even though I unlocked them. Any suggestions?

When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser, but check this also:

Downloaded TV shows on iTunes but unable to burn them to a regular DVD

Hello,
I just downloaded some TV shows on iTunes and it will only let me burn them to a data CD and i need it burned to a regular CD so I can watch it on the TV. It won't let me import the files, which are .mv4, to either iMovie or iDvd. I don't know what to do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Can't do anything. The studios do not allow for DVD video playback

Unable to burn photos to CD or DVD

When I select share->burn from iPhoto11 and then select "continue", I get a progress pop-up, which immediately disappears and nothing is burned to CD/DVD. I am able to burn CD/DVD from the disk utility, but not from iPhoto. How can I fix this?

BTW This is only when burning from a disk Image created within DU.
I haven't tried just inserting the disk dragging files and right clicking "Burn".
I've had no problems previously with the normal (Disk Image) method, I'm really panicking because I want to back up my latest work (that is already backed up to an external ... but you can't be too careful)
Once again, any advice much appreciated.

A135-S4527 - DVD Drive won't read CDs but works with DVDs

My Toshiba Satellite A135-S4527 is running Windows Vista Home Premium with SP1. It has a MAT**bleep**A DVD-RAM UJ-850S ATA Device DVD/CD-ROM drive (from System Information). It will not read CDs in the drive anymore. It doesn't give an error or anything. It just acts like nothing is in the drive. However, it does still read DVDs. Anyone have a fix for this?
Thanks,
Jason

You can find drives for your A25-S207 at http://www.sparepartswarehouse.com
Many users have reported difficulties with generic replacement drives purchased on eBay. These drives often lack the proper firmware required to operate in Toshiba notebooks. I'd suggest buying an exact replacement from a vendor that handles Toshiba parts.

Blurred Display, but Not with DVD Player

My 2 year old eMac went blurry about 1 month ago. I have since bought the video output cord for the eMac and have a 19" external monitor connected to the eMac. The eMac remains blurry, but the external screen is perfectly clear.
I recently discovered that when playing a DVD movie in the eMac's superdrive, the eMac screen shows the movie perfectly, i.e., no blurriness!
The eMac is blurry only when using the computer, it is not blurry when using the superdrive. The external monitor is never blurry.
It seems to me that if this is logic board problem, both screens would be blurry. It also seems to me that if this is an eMac screen problem, then it wouldn't be able to show DVD movies clearly.
Does anybody have an idea as to what may be going on here?

I have not received a reply with an explanation for this. I also have not pursued it further since the external LCD monitor is working fine. However, if there is an easy fix/explanation, I would be interested in it because it would free up some desk space. I also would have to buy a new mac to attach to my new external LCD.

Old app recompiled with f77 failed but succeed with g77

i need to recompile an old app written in fortran77, but it fails at the execution:

Is there a flag in f77 to mimic the g77 behaviour?
here are the flags i'm using:
f77 -g -C -fnonstdthanks in advance for help,
gerard
Edited by: mister_g on 24 juin 2009 09:27

it seems that the problem is related to COMMON variables, as they are strangely declared, but as i said before, it's a "commercial" app, even if this is the responsibility of the customer to recompile it.
What we observed is that, before entering into a function, a variable decalred in a COMMON has a correct value, but in the function, it contains NaN. In the earlier releases, according to the official docs, developers used to use sun compiler, so my guess is that something has changed in Sun f77 since the old times?
i gave a try with old workshop WS6.u2, the program failed too, but i'm unable to generate a core or to tell the debugger to stop where the error occured:

Unable to burn pictures to CD or DVD

I just installed iLife '08 and updated all the software, iPhoto is now version 7.1.1. I go through the steps to burn a CD, and it asks me to insert a blank disk, which I do. Once the disk is installed and spins up I get a message that the disk is full, no matter how many times I try a different blank disc. I took those same disks that iPhoto indicated as being full and successfully burned a different data file using toast and it worked fine. Any thoughts?
Greg

In your 2nd message, you said "I have CD-R and DVD+R and I have put both into the slot and selected pictures to burn and am having no luck. What should I know to make it work?"
In the most simple mode, you can select the photo's, and then use the send command to select the CD/DVD drive. Without knowing what creativity software is installed in your unit, it's difficult to offer guidance.

Fail to connect on Citrix with Limited User but succeeds with Admin user

On one of our customer's installations which is on a Citrix server, the users cannot connect to the database when they are Limited users. But if the same user is promoted to Administrator it can connect.
The Application uses ODP.Net to connect. Other tools in the installation that use ODBC works for limited users.
The OracleConnection.Open method throws an exception without an error message.
The stack trace is:
at Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException.HandleErrorHelper(Int32 errCode, OracleConnection conn, IntPtr opsErrCtx, OpoSqlValCtx* pOpoSqlValCtx, Object src, String procedure)
at Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException.HandleError(Int32 errCode, OracleConnection conn, IntPtr opsErrCtx, Object src)
at Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleConnection.Open()
On the server we have installed Oracle Client 10.2.0.1 where the .Net provider also is installed (otherwise it would not work for the admin user either).
Anyone who has a clue on why this strange behavior happens?
/ Nils

That was a known issue in 10201, and should be resolved by patching the client up to 10204. You do that by applying the database patch to the client, and you can get the 10204 database patch on Metalink.

Unable to Burn DVD due to Verification Failure

I am trying to make a backup copy of my Leopard Install DVD. It is a 7.2 GB file so I used Disk Utility to make a disk image of the DVD, then tried to burn the disk image to a Sony DVD+R Dual Layer disk (8.5 GB). Everything seemed to be working just fine, the burn process completed but at the very end I got an error message stating: Unable to burn "MAC OS X Install DVD Copy" (verification of the burn failed)
Is this a factor of the media used or something else? The disk image I created on my desktop appears to be fully functional. I put a copy of the disk image on a backup drive but I would prefer to have it on DVD media if possible.

Hi Howwow,
Yes I was stuck with Sony DVD+R DLs tonight but thought I would try one anyway. I have to use a Dual Layer DVD due to the file size. From my reading on these forums it seems the DVD+R DLs are recommended. Single Layer DVDs seems to favor DVD-R for burning. I have heard that the Verbatim brand seems to burn well with consistency. I will try to locate some Verbatim DLs of both types tomorrow unless anyone has other specific suggested media or reasons for the verification failure.
Thanks for the input.

Unable to burn DVD with iMovie?

Am fairly dissapointed with Apple.
I have spent time today creating a short movie of photos of my 2 month old son.
When trying to share with iDVD I have realised that my iLife 11 doesn't come with this software and I can't download it!
I am therefore unable to burn my project to disc and feel I have wasted my time.
In my opinion this seriously reduces the usablility of iMovie.
Is there anyway I can burn the DVD without spending a shed load of cash on some third party software??
Thanks

I was also disappointed when I bought my Mac and it came without iWeb and iDVD.
For burning DVDs, I use a free app called Burn http://burn-osx.sourceforge.net/Pages/English/home.html.
You can't do fancy menus or anything that iDVD can, but at least you can get your iMovie Projects onto a DVD.
You have to export your project from iMovie and then drag the .m4v or .mov file that comes out onto Burn (Make sure the Video tab at the top is selected.
Of course, if you have a MacBook Air, you'll need an external optical drive capable of burning DVDs.

Burned DVD won't play on outside player but OK with Toast

Here we go again!
After scanning the other posts I still cannot find anything to make my problem go away.
Situation: New G5 Quad and all of HD Suite installed.
Have gone through DVDPro advanced tutorial OK.
Burned to Memorex DVD-R media.
Plays great on G5, and a G3 that I still have, with DVD Player app.
But after trying disc on 3 different outside players they still come up with "unreadable disk" or "bad disk".
Players are relatively new - one mf'd within the last year in a TV combo, and the other, my favorite, Apex AD1200.
I figure if something will play on ANY machine, it will play on the Apex.
I have burned the same file to Toast 7 using the DVD Video from VIDEO_TS option and have been able to play it on my Apex with no problem.
However, inserting this "Toasted" disk into my computer gets me everything except the audio.
I have talked to Support and they do not cover this problem, but pointed me to a page on the Apple website for deleting preferences, which I have done with no effect, and have done a clean re-install of the application, again with no change in what I am getting when re-burning disks.
Anyone have any ideas as to what needs to be done to make this application work properly?

GENTLEMEN -
I posted this to the BMUG website subsequent to chasing down the suggestions offered at that time.
So far the response has been ZERO . . .
At the March 20 meeting I brought up my problems with selecting the correct media for burning my DVD Pro files so that they would play well across a range of dvd players out in the real world - approaching what you expect when you buy a commercially produced DVD movie.
I’m running the G5 Quad, and have the Final Cut Studio HD package.
I am simply looking for some guidance from Apple. Is there a favorite media that has been settled on by Apple, or Apple employees by word of mouth?
One of the attendees stated that he had no problems with his machine or disks that he produced. I wish to communicate with him as to exactly what he is doing and what he is using to be problem-free.
Another attendee suggested I contact the drive manufacturer and ask what media they recommend. Problem is, there is nothing in the Apple profiler that tells me who manufactured this drive. All I can glean from my profiler is the model number, which is HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GWA-4165B. Other forums suggest it is a Hitachi. My own investigation yields the probable manufacturer as LG Electronics. They do not show that EXACT model number (the last 4 digits are slightly different) in their lineup, so I am assuming it is a special build for Apple. So much for that line of inquiry.
I initially used DVD-R media. This played back OK on my computer DVD player, and about 2 out of 15 other DVD players I sampled. Using the same media and file, I burned a disk using Toast 7 on the superdrive. It played fine on three players it did not play on before. I only used the ones that I had immediate access to.
When I switched to 2 different DVD+R media I got the same results as the “Toasted” -R disk.
Why is it OK with Toast on the superdrive, but not with DVDPro on the superdrive???
There is no question about the correctness of the file itself. It is the completed Advanced Tutorial for DVD Pro.
I cannot proceed with projects I have until I can be certain that I am not producing coasters for the majority of the dvd readers out in the real world. I purchased all this gear just so that I could do what it promises can be done with it.
Some answers.
Please.
