Can't burn music on the internal CD player so how do we change to use only the external driver to burn CDs?

My CD drive doesn't work, so I bought an external CD drive.  I can rip music from the new drive, but when I want to burn I don't have the option to burn on the internal drive that no longer works.  How can I switch (permanently) to my external CD drive?

Hello

· What is the number and the model of the external drive that you use?

· You use windows media player to burn the disc?

· If so, what is the version of windows media player on the computer?

  • import music from the external drive to new itunes

    Hello... Had to delete and reinstall all iOS on my MacBook Pro 2012. Have always worked iTunes on an external drive. All my music is and do not want it on my computer. Can not find a way to import it back in to new 12.4.0.119 Capitan 10.11.5 running iTunes. Help, please.

    Do you mean OSX? iOS does not work on a computer.

    Launch iTunes while holding down the option/alt key and guide it to the iTunes Library.itl file in the iTunes external hard disk folder. If all you have on the media on your external drive then the structure of your library is lost and you must start with a new library. Go to iTunes > Preferences > advanced and set to use your external hard disk's current media folder.  In a window of iTunes, then drag your media folder.

  • How can I initialize with a previous osx of the external drive?

    About 4 years ago I installed Snow Leopard on an external drive while I was running Snow Leopard on the main drive. I wanted to load a lot of video on this player to be able to use the version of Snow Leopard of iMovie when I updated the main drive. However, when I upgraded to the Mavericks (recently in Yosemite), he would list is no longer the disc of Snow Leopard when I pressed down option. And when I went to preferences/Startup and chose to start with Snow Leopard, it would not be completed the boot process.

    If I use disk utility and create a partition to use for initializing with Snow Leopard, space-how much should I assign this partition? The external drive is 1 t and it is full of 50%.

    Also, I have a 500 GB internal drive I removed a Mac deceased and put in an envelope. There are also Snow Leopard. After the partition is created, can I exchange the two external drives to be used on the same partition? What I want to do with the box HD's boot up with it, then install Mountain Lion.

    I want to give to anyone who helps me the credit, but I have 3 questions under one heading. Is there a way to get triple credit?

    I'm starting to get lost with all these drives, partitions and 4 versions OSX.

    I wonder what happened to your old Snow Leopard.  You always use the same computer that you used with Snow Leopard? A Mac can start only in the operating system with which it is originally came or newer.  Your profile information from computer to the bottom of your post mentions a 2012 MacBook Pro which is not a Snow Leopard machine.

    How much space depends on how you'll use it and how you configure.  I would like to make at least 30 GB so there is a little space, wiggle but if you start to install the applications then 60 + GB.

    I know most recent disk utilities are supposed to be able to resize partitions without erasing but I'll make sure you have solid backups first.

    You can assign a 'resolved' and two "helpfuls".

  • HP 15 Notebook PC: iTunes error 4450 - can't burn CDs

    I bought this laptop 2 months ago. It has all the latest updates installed. I bought the laptop computer mainly to house all my files itunes, images and videos. I managed to transfer all the data to the laptop, but my first attempt to burn a CD from itunes, I got an "unknown error 4450.  I then tried burning the files manually on a drive using the Cyberlink burning software which is installed on the laptop and it also did not work.  It starts as it will burn the disc, runs for 30 seconds and then stops and opens drive poster "Audio CD - #0xEB020BED - an unknown error has been found.

    Because I could not manually burn a cd, I suppose that the problem is in the laptop and is not iTunes.  It seems that something is wrong, but I don't know how to solve this problem.  Because the laptop is new, a system restore probably will not solve anything, especially if it's a failure of construction plant.  If I can't burn CDs on this unit, he was buying at all.

    Please notify.

    For those seeking the resolution of a similar error, it was a setting in the default programs in the laptop. The WIndows Disk Image burner is by default to read mp4 files. Once I changed that, it works great now in iTunes and Power2Go.

    b. click on tools in Windows Media player

    c. then select Options.

  • Use LR5. Because of volume and the size of the photos, I use an external hard drive. When opening LR5 it references only the local hard disk. How can I change the refernce to read the external drive. Thank you

    Use LR5, due to volume and the size of the photos, I use an external hard drive. LR refers only the Local Drive C not outside. Where do I change this by LR read the external drive. Grateful for the help.

    Thank you

    LR is not a file Explorer. He knows only the disks that you imported photos of.

    If you have previously imported these photos, then later moved into the external hard drive, go to the library files and "update location" Panel on the files that you moved.

    If you have never imported these images on the external hard drive, perform an import by using the option 'Add' (not ' copy') to keep the images on the external hard drive during import.

  • Starts the Powerbook g3 pismo of the external drive?

    Hello, all,.


    I want to start my Powerbook G3 (Pismo) running OS 9.2.2 since the restore in one disc external hard drive. (PB knows he has a drive hard internal , but the drive does not read discs in there.) The computer goes up the disc - its own restore disk - when it comes starts with Macintosh HD as a player start, but when I try to use the restore disc as commissioning, starts to drive to go up, but the door opens. Even if I hold the door closed, the computer starts low to halfway and glued in place: first, the question mark flashing, then commissioning with Macintosh HD but then freeze it.

    This happens even if I chose as the startup disk restore disk in the startup configuration panel. This means that I can't even begin to use disk utility to clean the hard drive of the computer. I did that with two other computers (reset several times), but those who had internal functioning disks. Is it possible that I can do this computer using the external drive as the boot? I read that the G3 Pismo that allows. I know I can get someone to take out the hard disk and smash, but I expect much prefer to destroy it myself. And I can understand how to remove the hard drive, but it seems to imply a boatload of maneuvers and some tools that I have, at the present time. I would not completely destroy the computer. It would be good for recyclers to be able to retrieve some parts, though they might be useful to someone.

    It is possible that I can't boot from the restore disc in the external drive, but maybe there's something that I have not yet tried. It seems crazy that the external hard drive with the restore disc appears on the desktop with a normal restart, and I can choose as boot drive but can't seem to complete commissioning. If anyone has any ideas on this subject, I would appreciate it a lot.

    Thank you.

    Jenny

    Are you trying to boot the PowerBook to an external optical drive that is connected to a USB port or your external drive connectivity FireWire?  If it is USB, that is the problem.  The reading of an optical drive connected by USB is one thing, but start since it is a different matter.  Unfortunately, your Pismo is not capable of this.

  • How can I move photos from a Photo library on my Mac to a library of photos in an external drive?

    I have 10 GB of photos in a photo library on my Mac Air, which is running out of storage space. I would like to move the photos to another library of Photos in an external drive which already hosts most of my photo archives. How can I execute the move?

    Thank you!

    Marco.

    Copy the library from the internal drive to the external drive. You can then open the library on the external hard drive by double clicking it and check, if the copy does not work.

    Photos has no tools to merge libraries. You can use both libraries alternating, or export the photos of a library and import them into the other library.

    Or use the application PowerPhotos to merge the two libraries move photos from one library to another.

    You will need the full version and paid f PowerPhotos to do.

  • New itunes install. All the songs are on an external hard drive. A lot of songs do not show up in itunes, but they are in the folder on the external drive.

    This seems to be a common problem:

    Recently I had to reinstall Win 10 & then itunes. All the songs are on an external HD iTunes does not show a large number of songs that are in the folder on the external drive. I copied the .itl to the new itunes folder. I also tried holding down - from itunes shift - select a library. Any ideas how to be able to see the songs in the itunes on the hard drive folder in the itunes library?

    Thanks in advance

    See make a library of portable split. Have you copied the correct .itl file, or should you connect an external hard disk .itl file? If you can find the correct .itl, it should have all your songs and playlists. See the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library when the library has been altered for the first time with the new system. If you have to start creating your new library in an iTunes folder to the root of the external drive and move all the media inside... \iTunes\iTunes Media before adding to the library.

  • I would use the external drive to download my photos, documents, etc. but do not know how to proceed.

    I just got my old crash (desk top) computer. I knew it would, so I transferred all my information on an external hard drive. I bought a dell 2020 with windows 8, only bought a few days ago. I would use the external drive to download my photos, documents, etc. but do not know how to proceed.  My old computer won't start at all, that's why I got the external drive. Could someone please help me with this task. Thank you.

    Original title: confused

    You can simply plug it in, connect the external hard drive, make sure it is turned on.

    Then copy and paste on your files.

    In Windows 8, start File Explorer

    Highlight all the files and folders

    Click on copy on the Ribbon (Home tab)

    Then then paste into their respective folders

    Press Windows key + R
