You can't just yank a few songs out...messes with the flow. All of a sudden there is too much country or not enough groove or it becomes drowsy instead of mellow. Might as well start from scratch. strange. I have worked and worked on mine. I still don't sit right with it, but they all seemed to fit on the disc... I am playing it in my car today to see if i hit the same issue. good luck!

One other thing to check... the CD plays in a computer, but not in another CD player. Do you have yet another player you could try? Seems like the one player is flaking out. Send it to me and I'll whip it in shape.

It's 72 minutes or 80 minutes, depending on the actual disc capacity.
Lemme see if I understand....
With 15 tracks, it borked the end of #15.
With 14 tracks, it borked the end of #14.
With 14 tracks, it comes in at 62 minutes, right?
When you went from 15 to 14, did you keep the same track at the end? Which track was removed? The last one, or one before it?

So the consensus is that I'm just going to have to limit my CD to 14 songs because I know the CD will burn and play correctly that many - even though we don't know why it won't work now? Where are those big girl panties?

That is what is killing me. I do this all the time. I was hoping there was something in the latest version of iTunes that I need to toggle because everything seems to be working like it is supposed to. The CD has 62 minutes and 38 seconds of songs and is 627.6 MB both of which should give me plenty of wiggle room. It just won't play the last couple of songs. I can't believe I wasted all that time! Well, at least I have some shiny new coasters.

There is a balance between both time (80 minutes) and size (700MB, I think). You could have plenty of "time space" and if the files are very high quality, you could have run out of "size space", or vice versa.

EXACTLY!!! So I thought I was safe and spent hours burning the rest. Not to mention the hours put into building the mix. And now I have to pick just 14 songs? How am I going to do that? Tempted to use another program to rerip the songs and make the copies but that would mean they would be copies of copies and at some point I think you'd be able to hear that.

*bump* edieraye wrote:Since everybody has been making mix CDs recently maybe you can help me - I've made 12 copies of a mix and not a single one will play song 15 or beyond. So I made the CD shorter, and still, song 14 is the last song that will play. Does this mean that I have to cut my CD down to 14 songs because I think I will cry if I have to do that. I am using iTunes, recently updated to the latest version. I am utterly wiped out right now - it took me four hours to make the CDs and to not have any of them work... And yes, they all work on the computer or I wouldn't have kept making them. But when I decided to do a test run on the car stereo I discovered the problem.
Anybody? Please tell me there is a button to check or uncheck or some other easy fix or well, I'd take a fairy godmother appearing out of thin air with her magic wand at this point. PLEASE!

CD. Well right now I'm not burning anything. I am staring at the computer with my mouth wordlessly hanging open wondering if I can cry over this or - since there isn't any blood - do I have to put my big girl panties on.

Actually, the burned CD will play in the computer. I checked that first thing. And I thought I was safe. So I burned the other 11. But then when I tried to play one in the car it woudn't work past song 14. So I got the others, and none of them worked. So I thought maybe I had done the math wrong. Got rid of one of the songs but that didn't help. And now I am DISTRAUGHT!
