Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply
ask a new question.
I've got the exact same problem. Windows support has said that it's a problem with iTunes 8 and suggested I try downloading an older version of iTunes, but I haven't been able to locate one. Any suggestions?
2. How do I remove/uninstall 8.0.1 while still preserving all my audio files and podcast settings? And have them all restored when I install the earlier version?
thanks for the suggestion. I tried going to the earlier versions of iTunes as available. Unfortunately, because my library was created out of the most recent version 8.0.1, the older versions couldn't read or import the library.
Unless there is a way to revert the library files to the old format, it looks like the only way to go is forward, not backward. That won't be until Apple releases another upgrade, I guess.
I'm going to see if there is anything on the horizen. Meanwhile, thanks to everyone who is searching out fixes and sharing info. At least I know I'm not alone it this, small comfort though it is!
I'm on a 32-bit Vista pc with 8.0.1 installed. I did have Daemon Tools installed and tried the SPTD update with no luck. Then I uninstalled DT and manually removed all registry entries, then ran RegCleaner to remove any stray entries- still no luck. Still getting the dreaded "Disc Burner or Software not found" error. Apple needs to develop a way to slipstream hotfixes into iTunes without requiring a full update every 3-4 months.
I fixed it, easily.
All i did, was download Itunes 8 all over again.
Seems like Apple decided to update to 8.02 without telling anyone.
It's a small change, but i guess this is their fix to the disc burner problem!
Finally a fix!
😀
same problem here cant burn to cd's keep getting message to reinstall i.tunes buthave done so at least six times still get same message completely hacked off hellllllllllllllllllllp
I found out a way to get rid of this "The registry settings used by iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes.", but when I do get rid of that my CD/DVD Drive disappears so I can't burn any music. I imported CDs fine yesterday just can't burn them
Desperate times call for desperate measures. Call 1-800-692-7753 and get a refund for all of your iTunes purchases. When we purchase songs on iTunes we are sold on the fact that we will be able to burn them to a disc. Let's group together and force them to fix this bug.
from reading these threads i beleive this is a problem with itunes not my computer as i thought earlier..correct
i have been trying to back my itune library to a cd and it keeps telling me "disc burner or software not found"
i take it that all of ye are experiencing the same problem..
Had the same problem. Got hold of a tech in Canada called "DJ" who knew his stuff. The problem is a driver with a bug in it. Gearsoftware does the drivers for Apple. They have fixed the bug & I'm up and burning. Go to URL gearsoftware.com. Halfway down the page is a box with two drivers in it. The Driver X86...X64 download and install. This will fix the bug.
1210GG - This worked for me! Thank you. I also had to disable m HP Memories disc creator as described in the gear info to prevent my burner from being disabled each time I restart my computer. HOPE IT KEEPS WORKING!! Again, THANKS!
