Unknown error (4251) - ANYONE HAVE AN ANSWER???
I see plenty of threads on this error message but unfortunately cannot find one that gives an answer to the problem! Everytime I try to burn a disc using itunes I get several songs into the burn and it fails with the following message. . . "the attempt to burn a disc failed. An unknown error occurred (4251)". The drive works just fine outside of itunes but I NEED to be able to burn the m4p's purchased from iTunes. I am fairly certain this is an itunes problem and not my pc as this laptop is brand spanking new with completely up to date drivers for the matsushito drive. I can reduce the burn speed as much as you like and it still fails to finish. Here is my diagnostics . . .

The iPhone cannot be synced. Unknown error (13019) - anyone run into this?
Stephen's got you covered.
I've also seen the following reported cause/workaround:
After several Google searches I found the iPad syncing problem to be caused by iPhoto 9.4 not handling the & correctly in names. It's not recognizing them as & which is causing problems with XML. You can manually change them or wait for Apple to issue a fix to iPhoto 9.4. I started to do the manual fix & I just have too many to change.
(Manual renaming isn't going to be an easy/good workaround for a bunch of folks, though.) -
Have created a document in Pages and am trying to export to Word, when I do this I get the message "an unknown error occurred" anyone got a solution to this?
This is an old thread, so you have probably given up, but the problem is relatively easily solved. The issue is apparently bad or corrup, or missing fonts.
You can try to chase that down, but it is faster to simply try deleting half the document and exporting again. If that works, restore the deltion and delete half of that section. Keep doing this systematically until you have located the part of the document causing the problem. Often it is something pasted in from another document.
You can then export most of the document and then copy and paste the remaining bits over into Word.
This works with Keynote, too, where often the issue is just one slide.
Good luck! -
Does anyone have an answer yet to this time out thing with the Itunes 9????
I see so many threads but can't follow through each one. Does anyone have an answer to fix this?
dawniedoodleWhat time out thing with iTunes 9? You'll get better answers if you give as much detail as possible when asking a question, including any error messages you've received and any trouble shooting steps you've already taken. From your question, it's not at all clear what your problem is.
Best of luck. -

When I try to download a song from iTunes or try to buy an App, or even purchase an extra set of lives on Candy Crush (!), I get an error message - 'Unknown Error'. Anybody have any ideas?
Try this and see if it helps. Refresh your iTunes account. Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to purchase again. -
Help. Photoshop CC14 on Mac 5k (2014) running Yosemite 10.10.1. Photoshop stops responding when I'm opening files, saving files or creating new ones. Is anyone suffering the same problem? Does anyone have an answer?
First, go install the MacOS 10.10 updates - you should be on 10.10.2.
I haven't heard of Photoshop not responding during opens and saves. Does it stop responding while the open/save dialogs are visible, or while Photoshop is actually reading or writing files?
10.10.1 did fix a crash in the open/save dialogs, but 10.10.2 still has some odd issues (mostly program errors coming from the OS code) in the open/save dialogs. -

If you are not a developer then you are illegally downloading the software. -
I can't seem to download apps from the app store. I keep getting unknown error eventhough I have reset my apple id password repeatedly. With itunes I have no problem. This is VERY frustrating to say the least.
Because too much time has passed I can't edit this into the prior comment, but here is the info regarding reverting to iTunes 11.0.2 (assuming you do have a time machine backup) from https://discussions.apple.com/message/22057703#22057703

Repairing permissions doesn't fix it.
I reverted to the previous version, 11.0.2.
1. Quit the new crash-prone iTunes.
2. Delete the app.
3. Restore v. 11.0.2 with Time Machine.
4. In your iTunes folder look for a folder called "Previous iTunes Libraries", find the latest one.
5. In the iTunes folder itself you'll see "iTunes Library.itl", delete it (or compress it and save a copy for later just in case.
6. Copy the newest .itl file in Previous iTunes Libraries to the iTunes folder and rename it "iTunes Library.itl".
7. Launch the older version of iTunes.
My crashing has seemed to have ceased with a revert to an older version. I noticed today that the newer crashing iTunes had been launched for hours but not playing anything, when I played internet radio it crashed within 5mins, fed up I reverted to an older version.
Btw, a simpler way to do this is to revert to older iTunes app, then hold Option when it launches and choose an older library. -
Unknown error 4251 when attempting to burn a CD
Since I've upgraded to itunes 6, I can't burn a CD. Any attempt results in an unknown error 4251. My firmware's up to date; nothing else has changed. So, how do I burn a CD now?!
hi Ilkka!
no particularly focussed advice I'm afraid. but there's still a few other things apart from the CD-drive firmware mentioned here that are worth checking up on:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93360
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93286
... and these resources might be helpful:

... and if no joy with those, head here to check for other documentation and to submit your CD diagnostics to Apple:

... and periodically refresh your thread here with another post, so passers-by will be able to update you on any developments.

What Firefox version is currently installed on the computer?
You can find the full version of the current current Firefox release (37.0.2) in all languages and all operating systems here:
*https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
If you have a very old Firefox version then you could consider to uninstall that version to clean up existing registry keys (especial the uninstall key).
Make sure NOT to remove "personal data" when you uninstall Firefox, because that will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
Check the Firefox program folder and remove the Firefox program folder if there are still files left in it.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.

Every time I sync my iPhone with iPhoto I end up getting duplicate photos on my iPhone. The other problem is that I can not delete the dups on my iPhone. Does anyone have an answer to this problem?
Mike whether I create a folder within the Pictures Folder that iTunes uses to sync photographs or just copy them into the main folder the result is the same, I end up with Photo Library plus another album containing an identical set of pictures as contained in Photo Library.
The User Manual for iOS5 states ...
You can create, rename, and delete albums on iPhone to help you organize your photos and videos.
Create a album: When viewing albums, tap Edit, then tap Add. Select photos to add to the new album, then tap Done. Note: Albums created on iPhone aren’t synced back to your computer.
Rename an album Tap Edit, then select an album.
Rearrange albums Tap Edit, then drag up or down.
Delete an album Tap Edit, then tap the delete sign.
Yes I can Add a new Album, but cannot delete an album already created. The delete sign does not appear.
In iTunes the only folder that I can see listed is the man one into which iTunes stores pictures, which I have named iPhone Photos.
When I look on my PC this iPhone Photos folder contains another folder named iPod Photo Cache and a multitude of folders created by iTunes, the named F00, F01,F02 etc etc. and a Photo Database file.
Now whether I create a seperate folder within iPhone Photos to store my favourite photos in, or just copy them all into the iPhone Photos folder without being encased within another folder, or create a folder inside the iPod Photo Cache folder the result is the same ...
I end up with Photo Library plus another album containing an identical set of pictures as contained in Photo Library.
I am going around in ever decreasing circles here and getting nowhere fast!!
