![]() You also can copy the tracks off of the audio CD and use them without any more issues with copy protection. Once you have them on an audio CD you can play them on anything that plays regular music CDs. You'll see that one of the options is Audio CD. You select this format in iTunes by choosing Preferences and then Advanced and then burning. An audio CD is the format that works in standard CD players. You probably should check iTunes Help about authorizing and deauthorizing computers so they can play those music store tracks.Īs I mentioned before you can remove the copy protection from iTunes Music Store tracks by using iTunes to burn them to an audio CD. You also need to remember to deauthorize a computer that you discontinue using because it'll count against your five even if it has been sent away to a recycler. I believe Apple lets you authorize up to five computers (Mac or Windows). Therefore, those tracks can only be played on a computer that you have authorized. However, the DRM on the iTunes Music Store tracks will still be present. Apparently you are burning the tracks in the Data window which makes sense if you are wanting to keep them in their original format. I thought you were burning audio CDs for playing in standard CD players. It is how Apple keeps iTunes tracks from being copied outside of the user license agreement. Again, thanks so much for your help.ĭRM is digital rights management. If I can get that fixed then I'll be back in business. In earlier versions of Toast you had a choice of just Mac or Mac and PC. Not in any other player such as the one in my car or office, etc., etc. I have now been able to burn a CD directly from iTunes without any songs missing but now the CD I burned will only play on my computer. Your solution is to burn those audio CDs using iTunes.įirst of all I want to sincerely want to thank you for taking the time to help me solve my music burning CD's problem. ![]() Once you burn an audio CD with iTunes the resulting disc doesn't have DRM so those tracks can be added to Toast (or back to iTunes) and burned without any restrictions. You can burn your audio CDs using iTunes but not using Toast. Meanwhile, Apple will strip DRM from iTunes Music Store downloads when using the iLife applications. It requires that the DRM be stripped and Apple won't allow it. What a rip off.Īpple prohibits third-party developers such as Roxio from accepting iTunes Music Store downloads. ![]() Very frustrating and yes I have asked Roxio all the questions and even talked to a tech guy at $1.85 a minute. I upgraded to an iMac last year and bought the hard copy of Toast 8 and have had nothing but problems ever since. I have been burning CD's on my other G4 Mac for several years with no problems. Toast 8 seems to eliminate 6 or 7 iTunes from my song list. This makes absolutely no sense to me at all. Only Apple Applications such as iTunes are permitted to burn purchashed content. For instance, I will make a song file of jazz or country songs that are all iTunes then when I drag them into Toast 8 only about half the songs on the list show up and are ready to burn along with this message: 12 iTunes music store tracks were not added. I have some songs I have downloaded from my own CD collection but most of the songs have been purchased and downloaded from iTunes.
