Unable to burn CDs using i tunes. Have run diognostics. Summary:- i tunes not running in safe mode.
Invalid lower filters registry value.
Failed while scanning for CD/DVD drives, error 2500
Please help.
That's why you want to make a backup of the registry. If you didn't make a backup, use MS system restore to go back. The only values you should remove are UpperFilter or LowerFilter - one or both may be in there and can be removed. If neither value exists, then that is probably why you can't burn and Windows is not recognizing your drive as a writable drive.

Please post rather than send me a Message. It's good for the community and I might not be able to get back quickly. - Thank you.

Yes. You can't update or restore any GSM iPhone without a valid sim card installed in the phone. The sim card need not be activated, but it must be valid & present. If you want to update, you need to get a sim card. -
Hi;
I have just installed iTunes on a new WIN 7 64 bit computer and I am unable to burn CDs. When starting iTunes I get the message that I need to re-install iTunes to fix the problem. I have done that but still does not solve the issue, Also installed the GEAR driver as suggested in another thread.

Thanks for any helpThanks for the quick response I went to the device manager and did what you asked and no change in performance,but in the drop-down of the DVD/CD Rom Drive the next file? of HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T2ON ATA DEVICE on the icon there is a pyramid with the yellow exclamation point inside??. I've tried to update the drivers but Microsoft says that they are up to date. It seems that my Windows Media Player does not know or recognize that I have an internal CD burner because on the side box where you are to drag songs to burn, the message of "Connect a burner and restart the player". As you can tell I am not very computer literate so any help will be greatly appreciated. How can I tell if the CD/DVD player is just broken?? Thanks so much.

Unable to burn CDs on MacBook Pro
HI,
I just bought a new Macbook Pro and I am unable to burn CDs. When I try to burn an Audio CD it starts burning and suddenly aborts saying that there is a medium write error. I also tried burning in Toast Titatinium and had the same problem. I then tried to burn an mp3 data cd directly using the finder and draging files to the CD folder. It also had a problem saying that the device was unable to calibrate the burning power. I have been using Sony CD-R that look pretty good quality and my burner (as my computer) is brand new.
I don't know what to do. I'm a DJ and I bought this computer thinking that it would easily allow me to work with music and that I could easily import and burn, and that certainly has not been the case. I had to ask a friend to burn some urgent music and my CDs and files burned fine in his PC. I just switched to Mac myself but my experience hasn't been too good this far.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!I would take it up with Apple since the computer is under warranty. It sounds highly possible that you have a bad optical drive. Please don't mistake this as a "diagnosis" from another user, but just a recommendation of what to do based on the circumstances you've described in your post.
Good luck. -
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.

Missing drivers, unable to burn cds
When I click on iTunes to start it up, it gives me an error message saying drivers are missing and I'm unable to burn cds. It tells me to reinstall iTunes. I have done so 5 or more times. I don't know what's up!

When ever I try to burn a play list to CD, the burn process starts, looks like it's going and then I get an error message saying the burn failed because of an error 4315. I'm reasonably certain that I was able to burn CDs from iTunes in the past and wonder if some update of iTunes broke this feature. I don't have any problem burning CDs from other programs. I've seen postings for this error before, but it does not appear that any one ever found a solution to this. It seemed the only workaround was to transfer the music to an iPod and then use another program to convert it to either MP3 or some other general Windows fomat, but I do not have an iPod and would rather avoid having to buy one just to burn CDs. Does any one have a clue what this error means or have a solution now? Is it really possible now to burn CDs from iTunes, I got a different error when I tried to do this with a second system I had. If I can't burn CDs from iTunes I may have to consider going back to another Music service/software.

This thread talks about error 2131 and Dell computers. About 3/4 of the way down someone posts a link to a firmware download that seems to solve the problem for a lot of people. Maybe it will help you too.

Unable to burn CDs, iTunes guide unhelpful
I'm having a problem having iTunes CD burning. When I start up iTunes, I get an error saying that the CD/DVD burner drives didn't install, and I need to reinstall iTunes. I didn't accually read this until recently, because I haven't tried burning anything until now. Anyways, I tried doing a repair install. Nothing changed. I tried completely uninstalling iTunes, and then reinstalling it... Again, nothing. I tried re-downloading iTunes 6, and, yet again, nada.
Can anyone help me? BTW, here's my CD diagnostic:

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.

iTunes for Windows: "Registry settings" warning when opening iTunes -
Firefox 3.6 is running in safe mode . How do i change this.
I want to delete Firefox 3.6 and try Firefox 4 beta. Firefox 3.6 is running in safe mode and i am unable to delete i. I do not want to have both Firefox 3.6 and Firefox 4 beta on my computer at the same time.
So irritating when the window is mis-positioned. Two suggestions:
'''-- New window method --'''
(1) With the Firefox icon active, press Alt+Spacebar and then the letter x to maximize. The Firefox window should appear full screen.
(2) Copy the following line of script code to the clipboard:
<br>newwin=window.open(window.location.href);newwin.moveTo(0,0);
(3) Press Ctrl+Shift+k to open the web console.
(4) Press Ctrl+v to paste the line of code then press Enter to run it. A new copy of the same page should open in a window positioned at the top left of the screen.
(5) Switch back to the maximized window and close it. Firefox should remember the new window's position.
'''-- Rename file method --'''
Note: this will reset all your toolbars to their default settings as well as clearing the last window position.
(1) With the Firefox icon active, press Alt+Spacebar and then the letter x to maximize. The Firefox window should appear full screen.
(2) Open your personal settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
(3) Switch back to Firefox and exit the program (e.g., Firefox > Exit or File > Exit)
(4) Wait a few moments for Firefox to finish updating files in your settings folder, then rename '''localstore.rdf''' to something else, like localstore-bad.rdf or localstore.old.
(5) You're done here. You can close this window and restart Firefox.
