Why can i not backup library to disc

Why doesn't iTunes give me the option to burn library or purchases to disc...in fact it doesn't even give me the option to back up the library at all?  I am running a Windows XP Pro and iTunes is up to date.

  • Using iTunes why can you not backup and save your voicemail?  Guide me through this step by step if possible.  If alternate method MUST be used then provide same.  Truly appreciate this.

    Using iTunes why can you not backup and save your voicemail?  Guide me through this step by step if possible.  If alternate method MUST be used then provide same.  Truly appreciate this.

    Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes - Apple Support  - link doesn't state that voicemail is part of the backup
    iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview  states that VVM is part of the icloud backup.
    You can also contact your cell phone provider - as voicemail is a carrier feature.

  • Why can I not boot from a disc or drive?

    In order to repair my HD, I have tried to start from a DVD  (a bootable DiscWarrior 4 disc), but when restarting holding down the c-key, the disc drive is not recognized and the iMac starts up as normal and my log-in icon  is shown.  I have the latest Lion update.
    I have also tried to start up from a bootable memory stick which I made after installing Lion, but this does not work either.
    I have also tried to start up from a DVD using the option key, but the  drive is not given as an alternative. The same happens if I try to start up from the "Startup drive" preferences from the Apple menu - the disc drive is not shown as an alternative even if it contains a bootable disc.
    I try to get booted from another bootdrive in order to repair the Harddisc.

    Hi, StenErik. If I were you, I would forget about FireWire Target Disk Mode. I'd start the Powerbook from a retail OS X 10.4 installer DVD, open Disk Utility from the Utilities menu, select the hard drive, reformat it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)", check the box for installing OS 9 drivers, and then install Tiger. I can't explain why this should make the resulting installation any different from what you have installed now. But it seems to me there must be some detail you've failed to mention and we've failed to think of, and that detail, whatever it is, is much more significant than it seems: significant enough to prevent your Tibook from booting. Therefore, reverting to the most basic installation procedure possible, with as few external variables as possible, seems a useful thing to try. To minimize variables even further, disconnect all peripherals from the PB while reformatting and installing.
    As Hardy has suggested, the size of your drive is not the issue. A 120GB drive should be fine.

  • Why can I not delete a book from my iTunes library

    Why can I not delete a book from my iTunes library. There are many books that I want to delete and replace with current books, but cannot remove the old books.  Thanks  Guy

    Hey cjt101,
    Thanks for the question. Was this song purchased from the iTunes Store? If so, it may be that your device is configured to show all of your purchased music that has not yet been downloaded. The following resource may resolve your issue:
    iCloud and iTunes Match - iPhone
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iphb8d9fd5a6
    View only music that’s downloaded. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Under Show All, turn off Music.
    Thanks,

  • Why can I not place backup folders in another folder on the same hard drive.

    Why can I not move the backup contents of a customer into another folder on the same hard drive without it copiying the information over imediately instead of taking hours and having to use password!!!

    Because the backups are not "owned" by you, so you can't just move them.
    Also, I don't imagine Time Machine will be able to find them if you just move them.
    Take a look at Pondini's Time Machine FAQ #18: http://www.pondini.org/TM/18.html

    Why can I not share my whole library from an old PC to a new one? Is it because the old library is on the cloud?

    Yes.
    Just use iCloud for the new computer.

    Hi, Samanthacarol.
    If you are able to see the backup file in iCloud but unable to restore from the backup, then the article below will explain the solution.

  • Complaint: Why can I not download a Windows 8.1 ISO on Mac?

    Hello,
    I have been sent here by you customer service team to make a complaint.
    I have recently purchased Windows 8.1 pro student as a download. I need this for university and was planning on boot camping my mac to do this. I am told the only way to download this product is with a windows machine. I have tried at work but need administrator
    privileges also.  
    This is simply a ridiculous system that you need the operating system that you are downloading to make the download occur. You should be able to download an iso file or the like. I have ordered a backup media (obviously at my expense).
    The customer service people I spoke to were very unhelpful. Also this process of complaints is poor. Why can i not talk to someone re a complaint? 
    Regards
    James

  • Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tell me that the file is being used even when  it is not. How can I fix this issue?

    Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tells me that the file is being used even when  iall other programs are closed. How can I fix this issue?

    Thanks Jeff, I was not aware that a template could be multi-page.  (All the existing templates were 1 page)
    But it worked, saving me some steps.  When I was finished I renamed the document, and locked it.
    Then tried to save it but  could not because it was locked.  I closed it, went to my Spread Sheet Folder ,
    to find it, it was not there.  The Finder could not find it either.
    So I start over again.
    I opened up Numbers and it showed my personal Numbers template folder, it contained both my new 
    original 4 page template and the vanished saved document!
    I tried to delete the template containing these document data and could not - I had to go to the Library/Application Support/Numbers to physically remove it from this folder. Then I started over again.  I Finally found out how to make it work: I can now "save as", and then lock, and it will go to place where I want it to be saved and locked.
    The secret is: Click on the document title in the menu bar, and it opens up  "Save as...", which works the same as in OS 10.4.11, and you can pick the place you want for saving.  Once done that, you can then lock the document in the same pull down menu, and then close it.
    I also found later that I can delete a template from its folder, by letting Numbers open the templates,
    clicking on the one I want to remove, then go to the "Numbers Menu/File/Move to...", select "Desktop"
    and from there the selected template can then be thrown into the Trash from there.
    It appears now that the real fault of the Numbers software is that the "Save as" command is not available in the "Edit" or "File" pull-down menus, but hidden behind the title of the document.

  • Why can I not import aif files to garage band?

    Once I have created an aiff file in iTunes, why can I not import those files into Garage Band?  I'd like to be able to edit some of those files.

    I go to garage band and click on create a new project, then browse through the finder and files I want to import are all grayed out -- aiff AND wav files.
    You first need to create a new project  - in the "new Project panel" select a template (Guitar, piano, ...), not "Open an existing file".
    When the project window opens, drag your aiff or wav file onto an empty space in the Timeline, or open the Media Browser from the footer bar in GarageBand and import an aiff song from your iTunes Library.
    Regards

  • Why can I not copy paste anymore in Dreamweaver CC?

    Help! Why can I not copy paste anymore in Dreamweaver CC? It was working fine a week ago, did not install or delete anything in this time, the options from the pull down menu are ghosted, ctrl+c ctrl+v doesnt work. I could use paste special from the pull down menu and did.  Paste special worked once, now is ghosted too.

    Try renaming the Configuration folder to Configuration-backup.
    The folder can be found as in http://www.dmxzone.com/go/16740/clearing-dreamweaver-s-cache/
