Has anyone else found this?
I've been having problems since upgrading to iTunes 7 - I can now no longer burn cds using my superdrive (Matshita UJ-815, firmware upgraded) but dvds seem ok.
It seems that no the drive is unable to calibrate the laser to burn cd media... is it completely screwed and I need a new one, or is it a duff part of itunes?

it also seems to be affecting the other programs I use for burning cds - toast and burn...
anyone got a fix, or is it going to be a trip to the repair shop?

I'm having the exact problem. I was able to burn a few CDs after the upgrade to 7- maybe 1 in 5 was successful. Now I can't burn anything. Message says 'burn cancelled' and I get the laser not calebrated message also. Have you heard of a solution?

Alas, another fatality of the iTunes 7 release...sigh. If the problem is occuring in other apps as well, the only thing I can think of is that you have not updated the firmware on it yet, but you probably have.

Check the apple website and search for it.

I've had a look and there's nothing for my ancient drive. Besides which that would remove xvi's fantastic work... and put it back to RPC-2 which wouldn't be good...

randomly I've just seemed to find a solution...
using toast BEFORE itunes -i.e. not trying to burn a disk in iTunes at all. It seems once it fails in iTunes it completely corrupts the burning framework somehow.
