    Could you post your diagnostics for us please?

     

    In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:

    ... and click "Next".

     

    When you get through to the final screen:

    ... click the "Copy to Clipboard" button and paste the diagnostics into a reply here.

    Many thanks. This looks to be our issue:

     

    CD Driver Not Available

    CD Driver DLL Not Available

     

    With that one, I'd start with solution 3 from the following document:
