iTunes 12.7.2 CD Burning Issues

That's fine for you...........however, some others were caught in different prevailing circumstances which prevented an unlock to rerun 12.7.1.14

Does anyone know if this problem is fixed in iTunes 12.7.4?

Not seen iTunes 12.7.4 as yet. Are you sure it has been released? Apple tend to be a little tight lipped on exactly what improvements each build might include.

i single file that is over 74/80 mins, or a number of episodes? iTunes does like to fail quietly sometimes. 😕

I'm manually backing music up to CD for portability -to listen in the car. Thanks for your archival suggestions

Fair enough, it was your use of "backing up" rather than "burning" that made me ask. 🙂

On my Dell laptop I used the system restore function and picked a restore point prior to the update. System restore is on the control panel. You can also type system restore in search line and it will pop up and you can just click on it. After Windows competed the system restore I had the iTunes version I had before the update and all my music was intact. I was then able to burn music to disks. If you aren't able to do this on your device, someone in earlier posts gave info on a place you can get a download of the earlier version of iTunes.

When you use the steps in Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash you can go back to the state of your library at the last update that made changes to the structure. I've just checked inside my Previous iTunes Libraries folder and it seems that the last one corresponds to iTunes 12.7.0 all versions of 12.7 use the same format for the database, so you'd only need those steps if you wanted to go back to 12.6.3.6 or earlier.

You should of course Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy, or something similar.

Hi had the same problem. Go to page 13 on this community pg. see turingtest level 10 post in response to frank lg. Posted 2 links 1) iTunes installers 2) troubleshooting issues w/ ITunes for windows updates. I did the update. 12.7.1.14. 10/30/2017.

All I did was uninstalled iTunes did not delete anything else and reinstalled the update posted above

No more problems. Hope thus helps you

Uninstall iTunes. (You can leave the other Apple components alone).

Download and install one of the following as appropriate:

• iTunes 12.7.1.14 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2017-10-30)
• iTunes 12.7.1.14 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2017-10-30)

Or await the next build.

What exactly do you mean by 'You can leave the other Apple components alone' ? Isn't an uninstall simply activated automatically via your control panel and when it's done, it's done without the availability of selective options?

Also, isn't the link you provided the very version we are trying to resolve? I twice performed an uninstall then reinstall from the 64bit link that you provided only to receive a prompt which advised me that I am already using that version.

I am having this issue too. However, despite the error message, I am finding that the CD actually works - at least in my computer. I'll check it in the car tomorrow, but I think the error is a false positive.

As given previously, a workaround is to uninstall iTunes then download and install one of the following as appropriate:

• iTunes 12.7.1.14 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2017-10-30)
• iTunes 12.7.1.14 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2017-10-30)

See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates. Other users have reported that uninstalling the main iTunes application was sufficient to allow them to reinstall 12.7.1.14, but since that hasn't worked for you I suggest a complete tear down and rebuild as outlined in the second box.

I have also recently upgraded my Windows 8 iTunes software and have begun experiencing the exact same burning error issues. Extremely frustrating to say the least. I think I will uninstall and then reinstall to see if that fixes the issue...
