Latest iTunes update no burn?
Hi all I have a PM G4 MDD and a PM G5 Dual 2.7. Ever since the last iTunes update neither machine will burn a CD in iTunes booted in Tiger, both work OK in Leopard. Anyone else with this problem? I've reinstalled many ways and still no cigar, funny though my TiBook G4 has no problem in Tiger with the new update??

Personally I'd lean towards a bug in the newest iTunes. I made the mistake of installing it on my 13 MBP last night thinking it would be a quick update. WRONG! An hour and a half later, it finally finished Updating Library and proceeded to crash. I run 9.1 on the PeeCee with Windows 7 and ever since the update, it takes about 500 years to import a single track with lots and lots of hard drive thrashing. I have no idea what Apple was thinking when they unleashed these new versions of iTunes on the unsuspecting public, but I'm hoping they fix it soon! I should also point out that once the library has been updated by iTunes 9, they've got you hooked. Unless you backed up your library (just the library files) prior to the update, you're now an iTunes 9 customer. iTunes does back up your library file for you prior to the installation, but that does you no good if you decided to try iTunes 9 then wanted to revert back to 8.x -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

It's nothing to do with the iTunes update, you need Patchburn to add support for all Apple applications including Disk Utility, iMovie, etc. In Leopard Apple ditched the requirement of OEM-Apple drives, which is why there is no Leopard version of Patchburn. http://www.patchburn.de/ -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

His drives have been working fine WITHOUT Patchburn (many drives work flawlessly on Tiger without the use of PatchBurn) until the last iTunes update. It's something to do with the iTunes update itself, perhaps it's being a lot more stingy with what devices it will work with than it was before? Still, it's worth a shot to see if PatchBurn fixes the problem. It may, and it may not, it depends on how much they've messed up iTunes with this last update. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

It works fine With Tiger 3 of my Cubes and my TiBook 800 plus both PM's on Leopard, with Pioneer drives on all of them. Something seems to be up on the PPC PM's with Tiger. All this happened after the last update. every thing works in iTunes till I try to burn a CD then the program crashes.

Would that help? I've run everything I can think of and no change it's a weird problem to me, I tried to boot a CCC from a working machine and I get the same crash. It can't be any of the drives I don't think because it works on the Leopard partitions on both machines. And like I said all was working till the iTunes update to 9.2.
