Yeh... Wont burn purchases

Recently I bought alot of music off iTunes... problem is.. It doesn't burn. I insert a blank disc into the drive and it reads it(checking media) and then says insert blank disc. So I do insert a new(blank) disc and then it stops checking the disc and won't burn. I've changed burn speed. I've changed from audio to mp3 etc. Just like the help files suggest... No luck.
Thing is... It burns cds I've imported. For example, I bought a Chiodos cd from the store(freds) imported and burned, and it burned fine. Not only that but previously I've gotten free iTunes songs from a website and they burned extremely well, no problems at all. It seems to be just the recently purchased music.
A few times on a specific playlist I've recieved the message "Please calibrate disc" so I did... and it didn't work at all.
A few times I recieve "Unknown Error:4201". and I have no clue what that is.
I've gotten 2 playlists to burn... but I don't know why or how they did.
All my playlists have less than 15 songs.
I don't have an iPod so I can't just put them on that...
Here are my diagnostics...

  • Can Burn Ripped Music, Can't Burn Purchased Music

    Help!!
    Ever since installing 7.0.2 I can no longer burn purchased music to CD. Music I ripped from my own CDs burns just fine.
    Data from desktop burns fine as well as music from other programs such as sonic and Windows Media Player. Actually iTunes worked fine until I upgraded to 7.0.2 from 6
    I'm thinking ther must be some kind of problem with the protected MPEG4 that apple is using that is messing up CD burning
    I have downloaded latest firmware, updated drivers, re installed IDE/ATA, Reinstalled iTunes, Re installed CD burner, tried every burn speed from fastest down to 1x, Turned off spam & spyware, turned off firewall, turned off virus prtection made, Made sure IMAP CD settings are set to automatic and started.
    Nothing works. I'm at my wits end and getting very frustrated because I have hundreds of dollars of purchased music that is now stuck on my computer and won't burn.

    I don't understand, we buy this music for a buck a piece, and then when you want to make an mp3 cd to play in your car, like i have( i can make one cd with 150 songs)or what ever , we can't even do that. I also have an ipod but i don't bring it into my car all the time. I thought that because we are buying the music and technically we own them, that we can use the music which ever way that you want. And now we have to buy a converter if we want to make mp3 cd's. I have resorted to spending my money on cd's to make cd's of my protected files, just to rip them back on my computer again as an mp3 song, remove the protected songs, and all this to do what i thought we could do with our purchases music because, oh i don't know, call me crazy, we were able to before!!! All i now see is that we have to spend money to get our music to spend money to change our music to use it the way we want to, to spend our money to make our own cd's. The operative words, spending our money. Does anyone find this absolutely rediculous? Anyone ever hear the phrase "Don't fix it if it ain't broke"? Anyone else frustrated?

  • I can't burn purchased tunes on a disc because of the infamous "error 4310". Why are loyal customers copntinually frustrated with the lack of or nonexistent answer to our dilemma?  ITunes, why offer "support" if you are unwilling to give it?

    I cannot burn purchased tunes on a blank disc because of the infamous "error 4310".  Countless ITunes customers are frustrated that there are no  "free" answers for this dilemma. Unfortunately, the  "support"  that is so highly promoted and encouraged is merely community members venting their frustrations.
    ITuines this is not at all professional on your part.

    Hi to everyone that replied and many thanks for your input.
    I have bought well known and established artists CD's containing their music, track lists and artwork files from branded retailers. When I have loaded them into iTunes, it automatically loaded the artwork files FROM the CD I bought, so all that nonsense about audio CD's having nothing but audio isn't accurate. No, they were not DVD's either. I will endeavor to find a software package that CAN do what I need as an independent artist. iTunes just doesn't cut the mustard for me, even though it's free. I do know about issues with copyright and artists protection, but there should be something that can be done or made in iTunes, so it doesn't infringe copyright of artists, but can be used by artists like myself without the software being abused by freeloaders. Oh well, maybe when I'm too old for this malarkey...

    Why wont my purchased playlist show up into itunes

    It may have been deleted. Nonetheless, you can recreate it:
    -Go into iTunes

    -On the first dropdown menu in the Smart playlist creator, select "Purchased"
    -For the second dropdown menu, make sure "is true" is selected, thus recreating your Purchased playlist

    Hi and welcome to the discussions!
    Google is your friend...
    I found this on a Roxio forum, but it offers the best advice I have seen anywhere about this error.
    Basically, it is most likely the media or the speed you are trying to burn at. It could be a few other things, but those are the most likely culprits.

  • Dvd wont burn movie all the way

    The dvd is 4.7 GB and the movie is 4.1 the dvd wont burn the whole movie it stops a little before the movie is over. HOw do we burn a long movie onto dvd?

    What is the total playing time of your movie? iDVD 5 has a 120 minute limit, including menus, in the Best Quality setting or a 60 minute limit in the Best Performance setting. The size of the files is not the determining factor, just the playing time.

  • HT1645 I have changed the encoder preference to all the different settings but it still wont burn my cd! What should I try next?!

    What should I try next? I have a movie in iDVD all set up to go and it keeps telling me that there is an encoding error, so I have changed it to all three settings but it still wont burn and shows me the same error.

    Hi
    • Delete iDVD pref. file
    iDVDpref. file resides.----> Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
    and is named. (one or more of these)
    com.apple.iDVD.plist
    com.apple.iDVDApp.plist (may be ? - not sure this exist)
    and find
    com.apple.iApps.plist
    While iDVD is NOT RUNNING - move this/these file/s out on to desk-top.
    Now restart iDVD.
    If You run Mac OS X.7 or more - then the Library in the User-account folder is invisibly and need to be set to be viewable. IT IS NOT in the Library on Root level (when opening MacintoshHD - first window = root level)
    ( It can be done like this: Open Terminal, then enter: chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press return, then restart, and it will always be visible until the next major update, when you do the same thing again. )
    But there are better ways to do this - but as I'm only in Mac OS X.6.? - I have no hand on know how - but the above way works if carefully done.

  • Why wont songs purchased from itunes transfer to my media files on pc?

    why wont songs purchased on itunes transfer to music library on pc?

    I'm a bit confused by your question.
    You say you have synced with your iMac, and that you have match turned on. If match is turned on you can't sync music any more.
    Are the purchases new, or old ones?
    Can you confirm that match is turned on on both the iMac and the iPhone.
