Unibody MBP dvd burner having all sorts of issues.

I've had it for two months and have yet to burn a cd perfectly. I attempt to burn a MP3 cd for my car, and the last few folders of songs skip or will not load. All my music files are v0's and do not skip when playing on other players.
Attempting to burn some files for backup on dual layer dvds and it keeps giving me error messages.
I've attempted multiple programs, multiple brands of cd and dvd.

Same exact problem, this drive has yet to burn me a single working cd. also having problems with DL dvds keep getting "Device has failed to respond properly". Very disappointed with this drive, i really dont care that its loud i just wished it worked properly. I will be going back to Apple as soon as i have time. I will let you know what they say.

  • MBP dvd burner died, connect MBP to desktop PC and burn from there?

    Hey guys, i have a an older Macbook Pro that has had a hard life and the dvd burner is no longer working. my question: is there any way, with a program i download or cord or anything, where I can connect my MBP to my old windows xp desktop and barrow the dvd burner in there? I think you could use remote burners with the Macbook Air but I never looked into it. Can I connect with a USB or Ethernet cable to my PC and just barrow the dvd burner in it to burn DVD Studio Pro projects? thank you in advance!
    Macbook Pro Early 2008 i think. (Model# A1260)
    Mac OS X 10.5.8
    2.5 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4 GB RAM

    In the Mac open System Preferences->Network pane, "Advanced" button and them click the WINS tab. There change the WINS name to the same one that is on the PC (MSHOME).
    Also maybe the guide (even though it's for 10.5 or later) File Sharing With OS X 10.5 - Introduction to File Sharing With Your Mac. It might help.

  • New 80GB Video Ipod having all sorts of problems!!!

    I just got the 80GB for christmas and I have had nothing but problems. I actually haven't gotten it to play continuously without freezing:
    -It freezes often and I have to let the battery completely die and recharge it in order for it to respond.
    -I fully charge the battery and then when I turn it on it says that the battery is really low.
    -Sometimes my computer recognizes it and sometimes it doesn't?
    Last night i charged it for over four hours. When I went to turn it on today, it turned on and then immediately froze on the main menu. I managed to reset it but the battery is at only 50% after fully charging it last night and not using it?
    Did I get a lemon or is everyone else having these problems? Having a brand new ipod freeze on an 8 hour plane flight is a real drag.
    Thanks,

    As far as freezing up....have you tried restoring your iPod to resolve this issue? Where is your music from.....CD? iTunes Music Store?
    Do note that if your computer is set to go to to sleep then it will not pass a charge to your iPod. Although you think it is charging all night long, really it's not. So check System Preferences > Energy Saver for your sleep settings and turn sleep off.
    A good tip about charging. When you are done charging and disconnect the iPod from the power source you should reset it..Hold the Menu+Select button for about 5-10 seconds and it will restart. Upon restart the iPod goes thru certain checks with one of those being to update the battery icon. Sometimes you just aren't really seeing the proper battery status. So just reset it next time and see what it shows then.

  • My Brother's iPod Nano Is Having All Sorts Of Problems. HELP!!

    Hi. I'm new here and I recently handed down my 1st Generation iPod Nano to my brother and I bought a new one.
    Now he is having issues with it that I never ran into when I owned it. He can't drag and drop the songs onto the iPod, it randomly disconnects when he has it plugged in, and then it randomly gets recognized by the computer again and starts auto-updating all the time.
    It also says something about the proper software to update iTunes is missing, and that iTunes needs to be re-installed.
    We've tried reinstalling, and we still run into the same problems as previously mentioned.
    I'm wondering if it has something to do partially with the sync options and software versions, and also with my brother's PC being pretty broken down.
    Help PLEASE.

    On my computer it doesn't randomly disconnect like it does on his, but it still wouldn't let me drag and drop AAC files onto my iPod towards the end of me using it, and it used to let me easily drag and drop.

  • I'm having all sorts of connection issues on a iPhone i brought in the uk 6 months ago. am i able to use a genius bar abroad as I'm not returning to the uk?

    i brought a iphone 5 back in feb/march and since then its slowley getting worse and worse, my wifi hardly pickes up any signals and when it does they drop out all the time. my girlfriends iphone4 picks up and has no trouble holding onto the wifi, whilst sitting at the same table mine shows no signals. Im not returning to the uk any time soon so i want to know if its possible to visit an apple store for replacement abroad? im only 6 months into my apple care so i wouldnt think this should pose an issue. any help would be fantastic

  • Having all sorts of problems

    I have a Nokia 6111 and am encountering all kinds of problems trying to hook it up to my PC.
    My partner has a 6230 and already has PCSuite 6.1 loaded on the PC. He has a DKU-2 cable.
    I have CA-53 cable and first problem appears to be the PC not allowing me to load drivers for it. I just get the error message "Previous installation failed to uninstall" half way through the set up process, then I am booted out.
    New phone came with PC Suite 6.6. This also will not load due to unsuccessful uninstallation of previous version. I have tried to uninstall via Control Panel but it won't have it. It just won't come off.
    Questions:
    1. How can I get PC Suite off my PC to get new version on? 2. Do you think old version is corrupt?
    3. Is it actually a bit stupid to be attempting to connect 2 different phones to the software (not at the same time!)
    I hope you can help - I am tearing my hair out!
    Thanks

    Hi Vikki!
    I'm glad you're able to move things along yourself and therefore answer your own questions! Shows that you're putting in the effort! :-)
    With regards to uninstalling the DKU-2 drivers, I've detailed how you can do this in another post although as the post says, be very careful when following the instructions... link is as follows:
    http://discussions.nokia.co.uk/discussions/board/m​essage?board.id=pcsuite&message.id=1863
    Once you've got the old DKU-2 drivers removed, try reinstalling PC Suite 6.7 and it should work ok.
    Just to clarify an earlier point as well, the PC Suite should connect ok to multiple phones... even at the same time!!
    Hope this helps.

  • I am having all kinds of issues I've tried numerous settings done this and that read forum after forum and haven't got anything to work for me yet.

    ok so here's my issue, live in the countryside with no internet access except thru my iPhone 6. I have a MacBook Pro mid 2012, Apple TV, and an airport express. I have tinkered with setting after settong and am still having an absolute nightmare! So i use my airport express as A local router for the most part. I have it set up to where I can connect my iPhone to my macbook share the Internet thru the Ethernet port to the express and then I can broadcast Internet to everything. When I have my computer set up to stream stuff from the cw such as TV episodes it will play perfectly fine on the laptop but not thru the Apple TV. I had to watch the Super Bowl on my macbook because it didn't work To stream to the TV. The same thing goes when streaming from my iPhone 6. It will play perfectly on the phone and absolutely fine. My airport express when playing music streaming to my airport express it would randomly stop playing thru the speakers but still play on the iPhone for a couple of seconds occasionally up to about 10 seconds then it would play again. This is killing me I've spent so much time over the past week or two since I've got this express trying to get things ironed out. All firmware is up to date on everything. In order to get the apple TV to AirPlay from my phone in the past which worked perfectly fine last year shortly after I got it Id connect the Apple TV to the hotspot on my phone. I'd let to be able to connect my iPhone to my express and then have my iPhone still try to pull signal from the cell tower instead of from the wifi but I didn't think that was possible. Please please please help me. This has been soo stressful!!!

    Did you already try what bnoir suggested in this post about error 0x800736FD:
    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? Are they also 800736FD, or some other number? (If they're another number, what number are you getting?
    This thread might help as well, suggestion provided by bnoir:
    In general, these ones tend to be caused by underlying problems on the PC that can prevent Windows Updates from installing. So my main strategy with them is to try to fix the Windows Update issues. If we can get Windows Updates flowing again, that generally clears up the iTunes install errors +en passant.+
    Head into your Windows Update, and check for any new updates. Do any fail? If so, open your Update History and doubleclick on the failure entries to bring up a small box with alphanumeric error message codes. Are you getting 8000FFFFs? (They often seem to be associated with an iTunes-install 0x800736FD.)
    If you're getting 8000FFFFs, try the following Microsoft document:
    [Windows Update Error 8000FFFF|http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Windows-Update-Error- 8000FFFF]
    Head back to Windows Update, and stock up on any updates you're behind on. Once you're completely up to date in that regard, try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • I've been using Firefox for some time now. but i've been having all kind of issues with it and am considering a move to Google Chrome. i don't want to do this, but for example: your site tells me i'm running version 3.6.10, when i am running 4.0.1...huh?

    i play restaurant city on Facebook, among other things, but the game crashed every time i breathed on it. somebody suggested Chrome, so i switched to it...just for that game.
    today, i started having trouble with Twitter (the new one), sending messages & tweets. i've switched to the old one & it works, but again suggested that i go to Chrome for this & all my needs.
    i don't want to, but i will if things like this keep happening.

    You can use the Tab key to select a search engine on the bottom bar and press Enter to use the search engine to do the search.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Search+bar
    In the current Firefox 34 release there is a new "one-off" search bar.
    This search bar doesn't show the name of the search engine and a logo.
    You can type one letter to make a drop-down list appear where you can see suggestions and see the used search engine and that also has bar at the bottom where you can select other search engines that are enabled via the Search tab in Options/Preferences.
    You can use the Tab key to select one of the other available search engines and press the Enter key to search with the selected search engine.
    Click the search engine icon and click "Change Search Settings" to open the Search tab in Options/Preferences (positioned between Tabs and Content) to select the default search engine and select which search engines to show in the search bar drop-down list that opens when you start typing search terms.

  • My Mac will not let me install any software I download. In some cases (Like quicktime) i get a message that says "Can't create the folder" I have it with adobe air and its creating all sorts of issues. My software is up to date and I have 10.8.2.

    A whole bunch of issues here.
    I can't install any software. It started when iPlayer stopped working at all.  This led me to try to update software versions such as Adobe Air to 3.5 (Failed) then quicktime player 7.6.6 as recommended (Failed) then the printer packed up and I have tried to install the downloaded software drivers for Canon from the Apple site (Failed again) 
    In all cases they let me download so I have the file, but not install.
    Quicktime tells me it can't install a file "/var/folders/15....then a long string of numbers....ending in T//install.1347YKihUc".
    The Canon Print Driver has a very similar message.
    Adobe Air says "An error occurred whilst installing....contact my administrator" which is me and I am fine with it ;-)
    Remember this all started because my iPlayer (and my printer) just stopped working and I have been trying to fix those.
    I am a bit techy but not much.
    Can anyone assist?
    Many Thanks.

    I have Firefox 3.6.6, and now that Firefox 4.0 is available, it crashes constantly. Sometimes less than 5 minutes after I open it. I have a Mac 10.4.11, so Firefox 4.0 isn't an option for me. When I asked Ff to check my plug-ins it said there was an error and to check back later. Twice.
    Because I didn't have any (any) problems with my Ff before the upgrade became available, I am forced to question if Ff has done something to make the earlier version crash so you'll upgrade, but I can't afford to upgrade my Mac right now.
    In the meantime, I do need a browser that works! I dislike Safari, Chrome is also not available on Mac 10.4.11, and Explorer is just plain not available on Mac.
    Do you have any suggestions on how to fix my Firefox 3.6.6?

  • The New Firefox has all sorts of issues

    Ever since the last update nothing has worked right. I get application crashes all the time, sometimes it freezes, sometimes it get popups for script errors, sometimes it just wont start. Then whilst typing in fields it will jump to a random spot. It's still taking between 250mb and 3 gigs of memory with one window open, it's just turned into a really bad browser, But I do want to congratulate you guys on successfully making it just like the old Internet Explorer.

    All of them are present. And where is it getting good reviews because of the memory? If it's on a Mozilla forum for hi-fiving Firefox that doesn't count. I have heard every single verson was going to fix the memory problem. It never has. Not once. It has gotten worse a few times. Right now FF is using 292mb. Internet explorer is using 45mb. Opera is using 92mb. Safari is using 26mb.

  • Help!! All sorts of problems with my BlackBerry

    Hi everyone,
    I need some help..or lots of it really!  I've had my Sprint 8830 for about a year and a half to two years.  Recently I've been having all sorts of issues.  My call log/texts disappear which I assume is related to memory..but I have deleted many things to free up the memory on my phone.  I'm also not receiving texts.  People are constantly telling me they send me tons of texts and I never receive any of them!  I tried sending one to my phone from another phone and it didn't go through the first 4 times, but the one time it did, my phone beeped and as I went to read the message it just disappeared!  Also, my phone isn't ringing and is going straight into voicemail..only notifying me of a new message--not a missed call.  I've been in my house when these things have happened so I know it's not a service area problem. 
    I took my phone into Sprint 3 days ago, they said they installed a bunch of updates but I'm still having problems.  Help!  Is it just time for a new phone?
    Thanks for any help you can offer!!
    Solved!

    The normal minimum memory limit is considered 15mb, you have 6mb.
    Do you have a lot of third party applications on your BB weather, icall,bbalerts etc?
    I do not know your experience level, so if you know this I'm sorry but please read and let me
    know if this applies.
    Most people close the applications by pressing the escape or red key. This does not close the applications.
    Each application has a CLOSE option. For instance if you are in the calendar hit the menu key (spotted key) and scroll down to the bottom CLOSE is listed. Go through each application and press close. Go into the browser press menu and options select cache operations clear all categories and hit escape it will say cleaning memory. If your device has:
    Go to options - security - memory cleaning - enable it. The BB will now clean memory when idle for 5 minutes.
    you will have an icon on you screen for memory cleaning make sure you press it. Make sure you use the CLOSE button each time you are done with an application.
