Can't burn Audacity recording in iTunes to CD

[carolynbbennett]

I have successfully added a cassette tape recording of my parents talking from 4 decades ago into my iTunes library and can play the recording on my Dell laptop (Windows Vista) in iTunes. However, when I burn the recording to a CD-R as an Audio CD (as opposed to a Data CD), and then attempt to play the newly burned CD on my CD player, nothing is heard and then the CD stops and the player shows an "err" message. I also tried converting my recording in iTunes to ACC format and then burning it, but the same thing happens.

Is it a given that: IF this audacity recording will play on my laptop in iTunes, THEN it can be successfully burned to CD? or do I need to go back to the drawing board

Thank you!

We just talked somebody else through this same problem.

This is the short version...

Export the music from Audacity in WAV (default) format.
