Deleting A Track From A Cd
With reference to a post I did on Mon-28th Oct I have managed to Download the 4 songs I required for my service to a file on my Desktop.
However when I tried to burn the first track on to a CD. it seemed OK but when I went to play it started OK but after a VERY shot it paused the restarted and then paused again. So I decided to delete this track from the CD but cannot. What must I do to delete it Thanks for any help once again.

Sorry, I've no idea why one track should be 'sticky' but you can't delete it. Unlike a data CD (which consists of lots of individual files) an audio CD is actually just one big file. (i.e.what you've really burnt to the CD is a single 'package' containing the four songs, not four separate files). Fortunately recordable CDs are cheap (e.g:...

Do you or your church have a current PPL license (Phonographic Performance Ltd)? Not for profit organisations used to be exempt but now require a license to play recorded music, Check out the info here: http://
Check out the section on Charities and Not for Profit Organisations towards the bottom of the page. If you check the What are the tariffs tab in that section it gives info on what is needed at a church and how to apply

Just to clarify what I did yesterday. I downloaded 4 songs into a folder on Desktop as you said- All the songs were downloaded from Amazon and were selected tracks from a Album i.e. The Carnival Is Over from the Best of The Seekers. I then tried to download (burn) the first song onto the disc. Seemed to be successful but when I played it back as I said previous it started then a pause and I then nothing. Anything I seem to be doing wrong?
That simply sounds like a duff disk to me. Using another one will hopefully fix the problem.
However, when you try again, ensure that you select ALL of the tracks to be burnt to the CD at the same time. As I stated above, audio CDs consist of a single file (which holds all of the tracks). You can neither add nor delete tracks later. So, if you want all of the tracks on a single CD, you MUST burn the whole collection at the same time.

CD-RW disks are 'rewriteable'. (i.e. you can wipe the entire contents and start again). The idea sounds good in theory but can lead to problems in practice. They're also dearer than normal CD-R disks, which is what I would have recommended. They'll probably work OK (but I'm giving no guarantees, as I've never tried it). If you've got a Poundland (or similar discount store) nearby, I'd still suggest purchasing some cheap CD-R disks. (It shouldn't matter whether they're designated as 'audio' or not. The 'data'/'audio' choice is made when you burn the disk, not by the manufacturer). Try a CD-RW disk first though anyway; it can't do any harm.

Sorry. Our posts crossed yesterday and (because I was rushing to do other things) I didn't see your post at 2150.
As I've stated above, you can't add or delete single songs to/from an audio CD. The whole thing is a SINGLE file, containing ALL of the tracks. If you create a CD with an unnecessary song (or with something missing) you have to burn the revised COLLECTION again (preferably onto a fresh disk although CD-RW disks can theoretically be wiped and reused).

Just to update where I am. Have download songs onto the Maxwell CD discs OK. They were bought from Argos 25 disc's for £9.99 i.e. 40p each but they have no sleeve or case. As I felt more confident I then tried to download them on a new TDK CD-RXG (that is the same type of disc that I had originally tried to download on) and the same thing happened recorind started then nothing. Thanks for all your help in this post Buenchico.
Music CDs that you buy in the shops are produced in a similar way to good old-fashioned vinyl LPs. i.e. the grooves are pressed into them. When you burn a CD on a computer, you're trying to achieve the same result by burning the grooves with a laser (which produces the possibility of errors occurring).. Almost inevitably, problems do actually occur because some makes of blank CDs aren't fully compatible with the drive into which they're inserted. It seems that your drive doesn't like TDK discs but is able to handle Maxwell ones without any problems. Stick to using that brand!
