itunes on a CD?

Muppetboy · 03-07-2009, 06:43 PM

OK so now my modern car has gone I've lost my ipod connectivity in the car... I know I should be content with the lovely flat 6 note but I'm tough to please

Can I copy my iTunes songs on to a CD and play them on an in-car CD player? I'm on a mac...

Cheers

Yup, you can burn music cds from iTunes with no problems... Ive done this plenty of times...... What I tend to do is make Playlists and then just burn them to a disc or multiple discs if they wont fit on one. iTunes will automatically tell you if it needs more than one disc.

You can select how to burn them, either as MP3 or as a normal music file. When you click Burn Disc (bottom right of the iTunes window when you have the playlist or album selected) it gives you the option of Audio CD or MP3 CD.

I've found that when burning from iTunes as audio CD's (no CD text selected) some older cars cd players (03 plate SL55 AMG) still won't ready the disc - any ideas?

Could be the brand of disc.... try burning it at the slowest speed too. My cuz is just on this way to pick me up in the SLK55 beast.....

Feck off, start your own thread

03 SL? How about a '90 911?
