This may be an incredibly naive set of questions but...
do most people use iTunes for ripping CD's? - I do. - If not, then what and why?
why do people not burn CDs with iTunes (using Toast or Burn instead)? - I use Burn as advised.
Is it better to create .bin/.cue files when ripping and then burning. -why?
Is there a comprehensive Help for Burn anywhere? I need a step by step for most things!! (in the first instance at least)
My entire iTunes library is made of AAC files. The problem is that now I need to burn an MP3 CD and iTunes gives me the advice that can't burn the MP3 CD because there is no file in MP3 format. Pretty annoying.
When burning an standard CD, it automatically converts to burn, but not with MP3 CDs!
So, is there any software that does this? I don't want to convert everything and consume my disc space to then put the files on trash manually.
I just tried to burn a CD in 5.0.1, and there 'Burning' menu under Edit/Preferences isn't there anymore. How do I change the settings so I burn an Mp3 cd instead of an audio cd?

back up my itunes to a dvd and import it back if i loose itunes infomation on my mac. (always thought there was an option to back up info but can not find it. itunes 8.0.2)
also how i have imported most of my music as MP3 format but I need to change some of it (mainly audiobooks) to WAV or AIFF if it can be done.
Last night I decided to try itunes to burn a cd and I noticed the options you have when starting the burning process, space between songs (1,2,3 �seconds) and some other options.
I left the 2 second spaces which was the default, but my songs are cutoff by 1 or 2 seconds before the end.
Does this have to do with the 2 second I used?
Would someone be so kind and explain these options? I tried to google it by no answer.
I'm actually not even sure where to post this. I just attempted to burn an iTunes playlist to CD using my MacBook Pro. However, when we attempted to import the cd to my Niece's windows computer the CD title as well as each song were titled "we suck". This is very odd because the titles are correct when viewing the CD using my MacBook. Has anyone ever seen this before? Could this be a virus or something?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn order to burn an album you can't simply click on the album cover and tell it to burn what's stored in the library... you have to make a playlist from it and burn that.
But it has a mind of it's own. You can't sort the list and burn it the way you want it to.
I even had it sort by track number and it burned it out of order.
I am relatively new to iTunes, and have burned dozens of CDs before. However, all of those CDs have been complete albums. I tried to burn my first mix recently, and found that the CD had been burned with the songs in the wrong order.
I must be doing something wrong, but there doesn't seem to be too many areas where iTunes makes it even possible to mess something this simple up, so I pretty confused.
I make a playlist, hit burn CD, select Audio CD, and go. The songs make it, but like I said, in the wrong order. They get organized by album, but I just want the CD to look like the playlist on the computer.
Has anyone run into something like this? It is iTunes 8.0.2.
Are there any cause currently iTunes is slow burning audio cd's takes up all my CPU making it slow and I don't have another apps running.

I like to build CD's from ITunes. After I burn the CD, I listen to it on my computer...no problem.
However, when I insert the CD in another player to listen...NOTHING!!!!
In the past I have done this and had no problems listening on another device...but all of a sudden I am unable to do. To be honest with you, I don't know anything about MP3 or other code names that everyone talks about.
Anybody knows how i can easily burn a MP3 cd with folders in it using itunes?
I can burn a playlist using itunes but i cant separate it via folders so that i can easily choose when playing the cd in the car.
How do I burn a cd? I don't see the burn icon in my itunes preferences?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to burn a music disk with iTunes. I am using CD-Rs. When I insert the blank disk, the computer recognizes it as a black disk and acts accordingly. Then, I click "Burn Disk" at the bottom of the iTunes window, and the burn process starts. Before iTunes begins to write the songs to the disk, it is automatically ejected and an error message appears. It reads:
"The attempt to burn a disk failed. The device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media."
And I am presented with "retry" "cancel" or "next."
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? It seems to be a hardware problem, at least according to the computer.
I am running the latest OS X with the most recent update to iTunes on a Macbook Pro 1st revision with 2 gigs RAM.
I just recently purchased two audio books from iTunes store and I'm having a problem backing them up. I know I can make a data DVD, but that is not what I want to do, because they are audio files. My main issue is that I want to burn the audiobooks to audio CD, but the quality always comes out very poor. I have been searching around to see if there was a way to make itunes burn to a disc image, but I was out of luck. Basically, I only have CD-RW and DVD+R DL and DVD-R blank discs, so I would need to go out and buy CD-R, if it were my only option. So far, I have tried to burn to CD-RW at both maximum possible and 2x, both of which had poor audio quality, when I tested in VLC, since iTunes would not play any of the tracks straight from the disc. How can I burn audio CDs to CD-RWs from iTunes without the resulting audio having static sound, or is there a script I can type up to have iTunes think a disc image is a blank disc, or should I just buy CD-Rs?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm burning a few CD's to listen to in my car...
the audiobooks i'm burning are going at the maximum speed, as its simply an audiobook...but as for my music, i'd prefer the best sound I can get..
..So this leads me to wonder if a slower burning speed, such as 2x or 4x, are better than say 12x, for sound?
Can anyone verify this provide some insight on the matter?
I'm having trouble burning CD's in ITunes and IPhoto. Each time I try I get a "medium write error". This also happens when I try Roxio Toast 5.2. I have tried various brands of blank CD but to no avail.
Media:
Media Type: CD-R
Blank: No
Erasable: No
Overwritable: No
Appendable: Yes
Im only guessing but should the "Blank" part read yes instead of no?
tried burning a playlist, received error that the songs had to be originally MP3 to burn to a CD disk. Followed instructions on how to convert those songs to MP3, which I did, and when I tried to burn the converted playlist, received that same message.

I found that when I burn a playlist to a CD, the list gets shuffled on the disc without my choice. Under the 'controls' list, my 'shuffle' mode is off. Where do I turn off this option?

I've created a playlist of tracks which I want to load via USB stick into my car.iTunes appears to only give the option of burning the playlist onto a CD or DVD. how I can save the files direct to USB rather than creating a DVD and copying that to USB?

I have downloaded flac files and converted them to aiff files and burned them using itunes as an audio cd. How does itunes fit 3 gb onto a 700mb cdr? Am I losing quality? How does this work?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a playlist that I burned to cd. Worked in my car but not on my friend's cd player. All of the files burned as mpeg. I guess that is what my import settings are set to. I know how to change this in preferences. I don't know which file is best to choose that would play in about any cd player. My choices are mp3 encoder, wav encoder, apple lossless encoder, aiff encoder, aac encoder. I am burning it to a memorex cd-R, 52 X 700 mb.  iTunes  11.1.5.Â

I was trying to burn a DVD with the Built In MAC DVD Burning App but it had a hard time burning the DVD, but once i tried Toast Titanium 10 it seemed to work much better!
Is this the general consensus, that Toast is much better burning software than the built in Mac Burner ?
Would I be able to just burn a few folders containing Windows .exe applications using Finder and run them on a PC?
