Hi Neil,

I've had issues like this with hybrid audio/data CDs. If it isn't, I'd start suspecting something amiss with the optical drive..

Hi all,

(Itunes 8, Leopard 10.5.5, 24" 2.4 GHz iMac, 4GB RAM)

Anybody else getting this problem:

- insert CD
- queries Gracenotes CDDB correctly & gets track info
- asks me if I want to import CD to iTunes (as per my prefs)
- I hit yes button

OK to this point, consistent and as it should be, but:

- sometimes iTunes goes ahead and imports OK
- other times the CD just unmounts - ie it doesn't mount in iTunes and when
I check in finder it's not mounted

Now it's not a huge problem, I leave disk utility running if I'm importing CDs and if I check there - the disc is showing as "Audio CD" but unmounted - I then mount it and the iTunes dock icon bounces - switch back to iTunes and I again have the "do you want to import this CD into iTunes" box - hit Yes
again and this time it imports OK.

I can't see any pattern to whether the CD imports first time or has to be
re-mounted via disc utility & then imported.

Before my current session of re-importing my CDs it had been quite a while since I had done any - so I'm not sure if this problem is new to Leopard or
iTunes 8 or either/both?

Anybody else seeing this or have any ideas?

Like I say, not a big problem - I just don't like it when it doesn't "just
work" !!


Cheers


Neil
