Problems burning cds

[go_dice]

I am having some trouble burning cds lately!
If I try with itunes, it burns the whole cd, and then it stays in "finishing" mode for hours and hours and never actually finishes the cd (leaving the cd totally useless). I am forced to just turn the burner off.
I also have an old version of Toast, but it is not recognizing the burner... :confused:
Please help!

Thank you!

It sounds to me like you have an external CD burner that isn't fully supported by iTunes. Does your Mac have a (working) internal CD burner? If it does, try using that - if it works, you know the problem lies with the external burner you're using. I've heard of some software called Patchburn (http://www.patchburn.de/) which might be of some use to you.

No, I don't have an internal CD burner... but my external one used to work with itunes and toast, so I don't know what has happened! :(
