I get unknown error code 4260 when trying to burn cd

http://www.pc-library.com/errors/error-code/4900-0x1324/ theres your answer please rate me 4 thumbs up for doing the research for you. I hope this explains everything! Have a wonderful day.

Could be disk error (just make sure if on windows you have the drivers for your CD drive: start>right click computer>click device manager), try a different brand of blank disks.
Use CD-R or CD+R disks, check your CDROM to see which is compatible..

you can try to re-install/update to the newest version of ITunes. make sure the settings in BIOS are correct. drivers are up to date. use a different prog to burn to cd. there are alot of free progs that will burn to dvd/cd. like here : http://alternativeto.net/software/?profile=windows

Usually when you get a 4300 error when you are writing to a disk it means one of two things.

1. The communication from the motherboard to the cd-rom is bad. Meaning a bad or loose cable connected to the cd-rom drive.

or

2. You have another cd-rom drive installed or another IDE device installed in your PC and they are both set up on Master or Slave and the operating system is having an issue sending the data to the right device.

If neither of these are YOUR issue, then I would take the CD-ROM drive out and check it on a friends/family member's pc to make sure it's not the drive itself.

The problem is with your optical unit, (TSST****), it must be firmware-updated, which version of iTunes do you have?

please 1st you install a burning software and then burn you disc.

I had that error befor I was burning with Memorex's 52x CD-R... when I switched to a Maxell's CD-R, the error was gone! And I left the burn speed at 'maximum'. It did it in about 4minutes. Good luck!

I accidently lock the ipod and i forget how to unlock
