I have a mac mini. It has an internal dvd rw cd rw and when I go to burn a cd on an Imation cd r it gives me this error ... sense key=medium error.. I changed my burn speed to 24x instead of "best" and that still happened. Does anyone have any ideas? I was talked into getting a mac by a friend who told me that they don't have hardly any problems. .. This doesn't look good.
what software are you using to burn disks here is why toast 7 you need version 7.1.5 which is the universal binary for the mac mini if you are using disk utility clean your drive with a dvd drive cleaner if using dragon burn dont contains many problems here is my recommendation go online and download patchburn what patcchburn will do is reinstall a more stable driver for your cd drive and fix issues in itunes once you have tried this try a dvd movie if it doesn't work your in trouble if the mac mini is still under the limited warrenty take it to apple macintosh store and llet them fix it
Get differant CDs. The error is from bad or incompatible Media (cd/dvd) Try TDK or higer qualtiy media
