Burning in iTunes using Q-Fire 32x10x40

Ok . .so here is the deal,

I got a new CD burner, Que! Fire! 32x10x40 to use with iTunes. I bought this model because of the posts I have read on this and various other boards where users have said they plugged it in and it has worked.

Well . . . . .GUESS WHAT ? ? ? ? GIVE UP ? ? ?

NO DICE ON MY SYSTEM!

I can not get iTunes to burn or even recognize the cd burner. In iTunes pref. it states "No supported CD burners found." I was told this CD burner is supported, 1) by Apple and 2) Others seem to have had GREAT luck with it.

I have deleted iTunes and re-installed, etc. I can burn files with no problem in finder.

Here my sys. setup. G4 400 Gigabit, OS X.1.3, iTunes 2.0.4, 512MB Ram, 20GB HD space avail.

OSX recognizes the blank CD when inserted. It asks me all the info about naming the CD etc.

Any one have any suggestions?

Thanks

Supposedly itunes does not support 32x burners, I have a 32x La Cie burner and iTunes does not recognize it. Until apple starts to support it you will have to burn your music CDs in Toast
 
Hi divibisan

Thanks for your response but your quote "Supposedly itunes does not support 32x burners, I have a 32x La Cie burner and iTunes does not recognize it." is incorrect.

iTunes does support 32X drives, quite a few of them as a matter of fact. You can look at Apples web site and also the posts on this and other boards. There have been many posts where the 24x(QFIRE) does not work with iTunes and people have switched to a 32x(QFIRE) and it works fine.

I am thinking the mechanism has beed changed in the model that I have purchased, I will have to verify that with QPS. According to Apple, iTunes supports the QPS Que! Fire 32X10X40x with the QPS CRD-BP1600P mechanism using Firmware 2D37

For those of you out there who are using the QueFire 32X10X40 let me know what mechanism and Firmware your QueFire is using . If you need to figure out how to find the mechanism email me and I will tell you how

Thanks

iTunes supports up to 40x speed burning, which probably means that it can support burners with that speed or slower.
