Why can't iTunes for Windows burn two discs at once?

Is there a way to get around this? I have many playlists I want to burn for car listening and only using one drive with one burn at a time is time consuming. I've heard that the Mac version can burn two discs at once and I wonder why the Windows version has been neglected in that capability. Any help or insight would be appreciated.

I have never heard that the Mac version can burn two discs at once.  The Windows version definitely cannot.  If you would like to make a suggestion to Apple you can use this link:  http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html   However, I assume you are aware that the iTunes burning capability has not been enhanced in years.

  • Why can't iTunes for Windows see airport express 1st Gen

    I have a 1st Generation Airport Express that was working prior to the most recent update of iTunes for Windows 7-64bit.  The device is located on an access point router.  My PC is conneced to a 2nd Access Point Router. I have tried multiple configurations of the AE with no success.  I even tried installing on the the same access point as the PC with no luck.  I have also tried connecting with the Firewall disabled and added itunes.exe to the list of programs ignored by my security software.
    The Airport Utility can find the AE and I use Airfoil to stream to the AE for other applications and it works just fine.  Even with iTunes.  I'm listening to iTunes using Airfoil to the AE as I type this.
    The more I use iTunes the more I hate it.  My iPad and iPhone cannot use the Remote app to connect to iTunes either so I am sure its all related.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated:
    Below is a more detailed explanation of my network.
    Primary Internet rounter/modem is for uVerse.
    3 secondary routers configured as access points - 1 Linksys WNDR3700, 1 Cisco AE4200, and 1 Cisco AE4500 (all on different floors).
    The AE4500 is connected to the uVerse Router
    The AE4200 and WNDR3700 ares connected to the AE4500
    The Airport Express is connected via ethernet with no wireless to the AE4500. 
    I need a network genius to figure this out!

    Seems to be working now.

    How i can download iTunes for Windows 64Bit if I have downloading this through Linux Ubuntu?

    Thank you for you answer, but it isn't heart of the problem. The problem is that I don't have choose iTunes version manually, it's happens automatically, and start downloading iTunes for Windows 32-bit.

  • Itunes for windows - burning issues - 4280 error

    I have been able to burn cd's until I updated I-tunes with the 7.0 version. I can import but cannot burn at all. I have updated all my drivers and firmware, uninstalled and installed I-tunes, updated xp pro and windows, changed burn speeds, etc. etc. Sometimes it gives me a 4280 error before beginning the burn, other times it will go through the motions of burning but will only give me a blank cd at the end, and sometimes it will burn something (you can look at the disc and see that something is burned) but it doesn't work in any cd player or cd drive on the computer. Also I am running my computer as an administrator so that is not the problem. I have gone through searches on google and have gone through the forum discussions in I-tunes but have not found a solution. Here is the diagnostics that was run through I-tunes:

    I have read somewhere that the problem could possibly be with one of the updates for windows xp but I'm not sure if I believe that. Is there anybody out there that can help me with this?

    Well...after spending countless hours trying to update drivers and such...and basically finding out that everything was up to date....whoollaaa! I-tunes comes out with version 7.0.2 yesterday. So...I installed this and now I'm able to burn cd's.

    I am working on a friend of mine's 15g ipod(W/dock connector)and I am having the same trouble except it does it to all the songs. I have tried reseting it multiple times, but to no avail.
    I am not sure that this runs on windows XP, it is absolutly archaic (compared to my 5th gen. 30g video).
    Help?

  • ITunes for Windows freezes when importing a library. I have a large but not huge library of mostly iTunes purchased music on two authorized computers and would like to sync the files, export the library as a playlist, and import it on the other computer.

    I am running iTunes for Windows 10.2.2 on Windows 7 Home. I have my iTunes library on both this computer and another authorized machine running Windows 7 Professional. I have a large but not enormous library, as I'm one of those people who doesn't pirate, use torrents, borrow from a dozen friends, or whatever other shades of gray you might imagine. It's mostly iTunes purchases with my old CD collection imported. I have started using the following technique to sync my libraries between my two authorized computers, an ability which you can probably all agree should one day be added to iTunes -- that would be different from Home Sharing, because the music would be stored locally and thus available on the road. With the added benefit of the entire library being backed up on the other machine in real-time. Anyway, when I switch from my desktop to laptop and vice versa, I use the following technique:
    Connect both machines to the home network. One machine is the "Active" machine, which has most recently been used for iTunes media, purchases, ratings, etc.
    On the "Active" machine, File-->Library-->Export. Save the file as "Library.xml" on the shared drive of the other machine.
    Right-click "Library.xml" where it's been saved, and open another file that has two lines in it: The root path of the iTunes library on one machine and the root path of the iTunes library on the other machine.
    Do a find/replace all in Notepad to make the library XML file point to where the files will be saved on the "Inactive" machine.
    Run Microsoft SyncToy to synchronize the files between both music libraries; the most recent files win. This avoids copying the entire multi-gigabyte library over the network.
    Open iTunes on the "Inactive" machine.
    Go to Music, Select All, Delete. Keep files.
    Do the same for Movies, Music Videos.
    Go down to Playlists, select the top one, hold down the delete button until they're all gone.
    File-->Library-->Import Playlist. Choose the "Library.xml" file you saved.
    First a status bar comes up that says, "Importing library." It has the continually-scrolling progress bar, not the one that starts on the left and steadily creeps right. Then after about 30 seconds, that clears out. Wait. Typically a few minutes. Eventually a status bar will pop up saying something like, "Evaluating gapless playback information," or something like that.
    The "Inactive" computer is now the "Active" computer. I can now play my library, it has all my playlists and metadata from the other machine.
    Delete all the duplicate playlists named "Music," "Genius," "Purchased," and "iTunes DJ."
    Well, I just upgraded to iTunes 10.2.2 a few days ago and tried to do this again like I've done it dozens of times before. Now, iTunes just goes unresponsive after the library import. It got through the "Importing library" bar to the long wait and stopped. I can still multiprocess and use other programs, but iTunes is hovering back there not responding to clicks. Task Manager doesn't seem to think iTunes is using my CPU, and I don't see my hard drive rattling. Any thoughts on why iTunes might hang up when importing a large library?
    ... Also, please help lobby Apple to come up with a network sync tool built into iTunes for a user with multiple authorized computers. Something different than Home Sharing so I can pull my laptop off the network and still have the synced library with me. And all my metadata changes will sync. The technique I use seems a little kludgey, don't you think?

    iTunes isn't an editor. You need an app that's intended for editing audio files, like Adobe Audition (http://www.adobe.com/products/audition.html) or Audacity (free in the App Store).

  • With previous editions of iTunes for Windows, I could play a CD at the same time as it was being imported. That does not work anymore. Why not, and is there a way to do both with the most current version?

    With previous editions of iTunes for Windows, I could play a CD at the same time as it was being imported. That does not seem to work anymore. Why not, and is there a way to do both with the most current version? I am running a Surface Pro 2 with Windows 8.1 and the most recent vesion of iTunes, which, in all other respects, works well. I just can't listen to an album for the 1/2 to 1 hour that it takes to import it into my library.

    Two JVM's ? I thought that J2EE worked within a single JVM and run everything in containers. Can you see the two processes?

  • Unable to Burn CDs in iTunes for Windows: (Will not fit, but it should.)

    I am attempting to fix an issue with a friend's iTunes for Windows. Although previously this computer using this media was able to burn audio CDs through iTunes, recently, an error has appeared before any burn. When loading the proper amount of time to fit on a CD, iTunes claims:
    "The songs in this playlist will not fit on one Audio CD"
    "Do you want to create multiple Audio CDs with this playlist split across them?"
    "This will require more than one CD to complete."
    When running CD Diagnostics, I receive the following information:

  • I can't install itunes for windows get error message 5

    i can't install itunes for windows get error message 5

    I've been having the same issues for the past year and a half. I've spent 6-8months trying to figure it out. Went to various Itunes stores with pictures on my Iphone per each step so I could relay all information that I'd come across and the personnel were less than helpful, after conversations that would sometimes last an hour between myself, employees and managers they always came back to "simply uninstall then reinstall" when I told them for the thousanth time that I've done that multiple times and my errors are happening while trying to reinstall it they act stumped and say "well then I'm not sure, I'll give you a call if I figure it out" and disappear. I've been very disatisfied at the lack of support from Apple and if Android to piece together a reletively reliable phone I'd switch to them in a heartbeat. I'll follow this question incase someone can answer this, but I don't have much faith.
    BTW, wifey has Windows 7 running on the laptop and my phone syncs just fine to that and no trouble with itunes, just mine (desktop).

  • How can I make the newest version of iTunes for Windows run faster?

    I know I'm not the only one when I say that iTunes is by far one of the slowest programs on my computer.  I'm running Windows 7 and running the most recent version of iTunes for Windows.  Does anyone have some tips to make it run faster and smoother?  I have Genius and Ping disabled, but I'm not quite sure what else I can do.

    The newest version of iTunes should install if you are runnig 10.7.
    Do you get any error messages?
