CD burner does not burn...

I recently did a reinstall of vista and when I try to burn a cd with media player 11 it says its burning the disc, even the finalization of the disk, but when I try to read the disc, its empty, and the player says his Blanck. How can I fix?

Hello misbridgette1,

·         What type of disc do you use to burn the data on your computer?

·         Do you have any other software installed on your computer for CD burning?

If you have any other software installed CD burning, try to uninstall the software and check if you are able to burn.

Try running the Fix - it who will automatically diagnose and repair problems with your CD or DVD drive when trying to read or burn media.

  • External CD drive does not recognize the CD burned on El Capitan.

    Using El Capitan 10.11.5 and an external hard drive, I have burned successfully mp3 files iTunes CD - I can play on the computer itself - but an external CD drive does not recognize, even if the Player recognizes the discs once engraved on Snow Leopard and previous models.  What's wrong? I burn "at the fastest possible speed," as I have always done.

    What CD format?  If you burn it to a CD mp3 this is not very common for a standard CD player to be able to read those.  You may have burnt the other CD audio CD format.

  • External CD burner does not recognize blank CD

    I have a new CD/DVD of Memorex burner that plays very well the prerecorded CD, but when I put in a blank CD - it seems that the blank CD is not recognized.  I've been reviewing newspaper and I see no evidence of an error.  The default current behavior when you insert a blank CD should be to open iTunes.  The focus to Itunes, but nothing else happens.  In addition, the CD does not appear in the Finder or on the desktop.  Once the CD is inserted into the optical drive, the unit eject button works like.  (It works well with prerecorded CD)  The only way to eject a blank CD's either reboot the computer or open the disk utility program and eject it from there.  Disk utility seems to be the only application that knows the blank CD - although he pointed out that the capacity is 0 KB and is unitialized, and partition map and the Smart function are indicated as 'not supported '. I tried with two different brands of CDR and get the same problem.

    Note that I have this problem on two new Imacs. The first is a machine of retina 27 "with 16 GB of RAM and hard drive with more than 2 TB of space remaining.  The other machine is an iMac 21 non-retinienne "with 8 GB of RAM and about 500 GB left on the hard drive.  Both machines are running El Capitan.

    It is the 2nd optical drive Memorex who gave me this problem.  I returned the 1st under warranty and has just received the replacement by mail unit this morning.  I contacted the technical support Apple, which were very nice. They took me through a SMC reset, but this has no effect.  Apart from them, they had no indication as to what was causing the problem.  I thought that I would try to write to you, geniuses.  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance.

    Contact Memorex. I think that you have to go back and buy something else that actually works with a Mac. 2 units in a row with the same failure seems unlikely. It is more likely that they are simple not compatible.

    Hello

    Have you tried different CDs and DVDs from different manufacturers?
    You must proceed as different disks from different manufacturers are not 100% compatible.

    I had similar problems, burning data to CDs or the different DVD
    Then I tested the drives from different manufacturers, and that was the key!
    Everything worked properly!

    I made good experiences with disc Verbatim and TDK R (CD and DVD)

    I think you should also test some discs

  • R6112 does not recognize that some Nero burned DVD

    The kit: Freecom classic Satellite P10 804 16 external, internal DVD RW SD-R6112, x, XP Professional SP2

    Symptoms: DVDs burned on an external DVD recorder re (Freecom classic) is recognized by the Freecom but not by the R6112.

    I mean by recognized, no list directory, the option of reading automatic or other form of recognition occurs when the DVD is inserted a few rattles and nothing.

    Other DVD (with exactly the same brand and specification in the same package) were burned on the Freecom and then read correctly on the R6112.

    the offending DVD was then copied (using Nero) of the Freecom to the R6112 where is burned and checked OK. The DVD is ejected, reinserted in the R6112, and then is not recognized!

    A previously burned DVD is inserted into the R6112 and knows very well.

    So I do the following:
    Remove the DVD in Device Manager and reboot. I get new hardware found messages for
    * DVD-ROM SD - R6112 (strange as it RW!)
    * CD-ROM what?
    In windows Explorer, I find myself with f: DVD - RW (which is DVD RW I already deleted) AND g: CD player. I don't know what this g: maybe I have that the internal drive connected when I started!

    But unfortunately the restarting made no difference. Does not read DVD who have not read before. We still read DVD that would read before. An opportunity, a DVD which does not AutoPlay, finally pulled up after clicking on the drive letter in Windows Explorer (but generally, it makes no difference) and a DVD fires sometimes upward and sometimes doesn't!

    All DVDs in history are of the same brand (Sony 16 x DVD-R) with the same pack, they are all burned with Nero 7 and they are all DVD data format

    So, what's the problem? Is the R116 in the process of disappearance? Is there a driver problem (the update of the firmware says it's useless) or what.

    Its driving me crazy so any help appreciated.

    Hello

    It s nothing unusual. You should google a bit on the Web sites of burner and you will find many people who test many DVD and CD media on different burners.

    It of a simple and sad that no all media are compatible on all players. Not every reader or burner can write on CDs or DVDs. It often happens that the DVD or the CD that has worked on the drive or burner doesn t work on another optical drive.

    Believe me, I tried many media. I could scream :_| ;\

    Now, I use TDK media. But it said nothing. On my drive this media work perfectly, but it of possible you drive will not be able to handle this media.

    However, in the user manual, you should find a list of CD and DVD compatible. I think if you want to be sure that the drive can read and write the CD or the DVD so you have to use media recommended 100%.

  • Satellite C850 - CD 1 kN burner does not work

    Hello

    I tried to burn CDs on my Satellite C850 - 1 kN with 64-bit Windows 8 and everytime I try it will finish burning the CD without error message or apparent problems but then when you try to play the CD on the laptop or other device, it is read as a blank disc.

    Have you tried to fire using Itunes, Nero and Windows Media player, all with the same result.

    I also tried to use Verbatim and CD Virgin Maxell without change in results.

    I would also add that the CD drive works as it will play another CD.

    Any help with this would be much appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Are you able to create data CD or DVD?
    I guess you tried to write music data (possibly mp3, mp4 files) on a CD, but try to write files to simple document on a DVD or a CD.

    Also, make sure that the writing session was closed after completed burning the disc.

    Another tip:
    I also recommend to test the discs to another and from different manufacturers.
    You use Verbatim and Maxwell, both are great records but the key is the combination of optical disks and disk drives, so even if others were able to use this disc using another optical disc drive, this does not mean that this drive would be fully compatible with your SIDE. How about TDK R CD/DVD?
    Test it!

  • Equium L20-197 does not burn DVD

    Hello

    I've had my Toshiba Equium L20-197 for more than a year. I have problems with the DVD burner. He is able to play DVDs, burn CDs and play perfectly fine CDs, is not just to burn DVDs. Had this problem for months, I was wondering if anyone knows a solution for it!

    Secondly, a question more than a question. Is it possible to set the "Play/pause" media key to open an alternative application to Windows Media Player? I use Winamp, and it would be nice if I could take a break using this button and I not WMP opens in the process!

    Thank you

    Hello

    First something about burning your DVDs of problem.
    Have you tried to burn different types of DVDs? I mean if you have tried different brands of DVD?
    I use only the TDK CD and DVD and I am satisfied. But this does not mean that the TDK will work with your hard drive. The fact is that not all readers of support all media.

    In any case, do you have an error message during the burning process? Have you used different burning applications? I only use one program for burning (Nero) and I do not mix the burning software. I noticed that the sonic program installed on the laptop could have a negative influence on the burning process.

    But on the other side, it is possible that disk and that only aid failures.
    Especially the lens of the drive can not calibrate properly and so the CD / DVD cannot be recognized or burned.

    Now the button configuration media;
    Unfortunately, the buttons are configured fix and it is no longer possible to use WMP if audio CD has been inserted or with WinDVD if the DVD has been inserted.

    I hope I could help bye ;)

  • Software Sonic does not burn DVDs on Satellite 105

    Hello

    I have a few movies that I downloaded via Windows movie maker, but did not burn. I edited movies with all the works, I was able to burn using CD disc, but does not burn with a DVD-R disc.

    My other attempts involved using the pre installed Sonic DVD maker software, but I couldn't transfer my films to the library of windows movie maker (WMM). How can I do this? I tried to import the movies, but the Sonic would be important only videos found in the "My videos file", I transferred a movie in my video folder and was able to transfer it to the sound library, however, I couldn't find a way to edit the video, the software Sonic does not appear to guide you on the steps to do , in contrast to WMM.

    Any comments would be greatly appreciated since I've lost too many CD drives already.
    See you soon

    Hello

    I put t know if Windows movie maker is able to burn on DVD s. I presume that it s is not possible. I checked the WMM options and it seems it is only an option called save on CD and nothing on the DVD.

    I don t use Windows movie maker but another application called Nero burning ROM.
    It really great software s. I installed some add-ons and I can create DVD movies and play with the DVD drive simply.

    I recommend to check and test the Nero!

  • Reader SuperDrive does not burn after upgrade of el capitan

    Almost immediately after upgrading a mac mini end of 2014 to el capitan (10.11.2), the superdrive has lost his ability to write DVD. It is recognized by the system and can read DVDs fine, but any attempt to burn files or an ISO image on a disc breaks down.

    The superdrive even happily burn on the same media on other macs in Yosemite (I checked several times), but he stubbornly refuses to do it on el capitan. The same mac mini was happily burn DVDs on the same media with the same superdrive on Yosemite, just before the upgrade to 10.11.2.

    Now, with el capitan, attempts to burn ISO images fail with the message:

    "Error burn image to disc: the disc can't be burned; It might be incompatible with this disc drive. Please, try a different brand of disc, or try burning at a slower speed. »

    Burn files fail with the message:

    "The disc can't be burned because the device failed to calibrate the power level of laser for this media."

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem would be appreciated.

  • Satellite A300D - 21(d) - burning software does not recognize my optical drive

    Greetings,
    I've updated preinstalled Vista Home with Vista Bussiness x 64, and since then, I have problems with my optical drive. Notepad is a month old.

    It reads CDs and DVDs without problem, but when I start the burning software (Toshiba Disc Creator and Burner XP Pro), it can not read my camera. BurnerXP Pro it says 'no compatible drives', and Toshiba DC I first get a few repeat mistakes (32007C-26-00000001, 32019-26-00000001) and when I click on 'disc information', it has no options in the drop-down menu "Drive".

    When I insert the blank disc, Windows gives me an option to burn files using Windows, although I have not yet tried.

    I tried to reinstall the drivers, but it does not help. My firmware is also updated.

    The device is TSST corp CDDVDW TS - L633A Ata Device.

    Any help is welcome, thanks!

  • Satellite Pro A210-1 b 1 does not burn DVD

    Hi guys,.

    I got a problem here. I tried many times to burn DVDs on my laptop, but it does not work.

    I tried to burn DVDs with Nero, DeepBurner, Windows Media Player and Windows explore any of them successfully. (Only Nero and just once).

    What is happening is: I put the blank DVD disk, start Nero (or other program) select the files and click on burn. It doesn't show any errors during combustion and post-combustion, I check the disc and seems to be really burnt (the color of the disk where files there is darker) but after inserting the disc again in the PC it shows: blank DVD!

    I'm really annoyed with it because I got a lot of files to burn, and I can't.

    Anyone has an idea on what to do?

    PS. : Already put the recovery disk and formatted my system whole and already tried with Windows XP.
    I tried to burn a DVD (to check if it is not the media) on another laptop and it worked very well.

    Please guys, try to help me.

    Thank you
    Felipe

    You can check if these DVD created on your laptop is empty on other laptops or computers too?

    Did you do an update of the firmware of your player? This can sometimes help.

    For a TS - L632H ODD, you will need the TO03 firmware.
    For a TS - L632P ODD, you will need firmware TO02.

    Try them and let me know if this worked for you

  • L750D satellite does not burn CD

    Whenever I try to burn a cd using I tunes or nero my hard drive will be cick make noise that it is looking for a drive, but it does not burn the cd, then guard asks me to insert a blank disc and I've tried many discs and I get you answer.

    Anyone has any ideas at all?

    Hello

    You have the same problems of burning DVDs / CD?
    How did you notice this problem?
    It seemed after installing iTunes?

    I had some experience using the iTunes (now I m using Android?)
    However, in my case, the itunes software messed with the registry.
    I don t know why, but after itunes was installed my software butted another was not able to manage disks.

    In many cases, I uninstalled itunes, cleaned the registry and removed the filters upper and lower of the following registry entry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SYSTEM \CurrentControlSet \Control \Class \{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    I restarted and can burn the discs

    However, it is also possible that's not a solution for you. It is possible that the laser lens cannot read disks, this could be caused by the lens of clean soil with piece of cotton and alcohol sometimes that helps too

Maybe you are looking for
