Additional information that might help to determine the cause of the problems I am having with freezes when burning CDs, is that I am unable to follow the instructions in the Help Menu for "Create (Burn) CD".
(To Create/Burn a CD:
Put a blank CD in your CD-RW, and select the tracks you want to record or select a Playlist, and do one of the following:
Toolbar Click on .
Right-Click Send To > Device > CD Burner.
Drag & Drop Expand "CD & Handhelds" in the tree, and drag your files to the CDR-RW.
File Menu Tools > Write (Burn) CD.
The system will scan for a writable CD-ROM drive on your computer. If you have more than one it will ask which one to use.
When the dialog box opens, select Audio CD or Data CD.
Click on the CD-R/RW under Devices in the tree.
The content pane will change to show you the following:
In the first field select the size of your CD with the drop-down menu.
Notice that the second field, Status, displays the space left on the CD. Click here for technical information on CD capacity.
To change the track order of Audio CDs prior to burning, drag and drop tracks from one position in the list box to another. (Note: You can't change the track order of data files: they are always in alphabetical order.)
Click on the Start button.
When a data CD is burned, a Playlist file called "playlist.m3u" will also be burned onto the disc. This will contain the full track names (including directories and subdirectories) in alphabetical order).
The only way I am able to burn a CD since ver 9.0.87 and 9.0.88 is to select a playlist, click on Burn CD,select Audio CD and then the Content Pane will display except there will be 0% space used on the CD. I then right click on the displayed playlist and click on select all, then the correct % of space used on CD in the second field of the content pane will be displayed. I then click on the start button. When the CD is completed and played, the title of each track will be displayed and even though the correct individual artist were listed on the playlist, the artist on the CD will be displayed as Various.
I have burned four CDs since my orgingal post yesterday and each time MC freezes up at the end of the process. Would appreciate any suggestions as to what is causing this. Thank you, Joe K
