From: Figaro on 1 Aug 2010 13:54 First I burned a playlist of apple lossless files.... the CD played fine on the computer but not in my old portable CD player. Next, I converted playlist files into WAV and burned again.... same thing happened. What's going on?? What is the file format that iTunes burns to CD? I did make sure I was burning "Music CD" in the preference/advanced setting. Thanks for your help!!

Has this particular CD player ever played a burned (as opposed to commercial, pressed) CD? A fair number of older CD players don't recognize burned media, and many that do are somewhat fussy about what brand CD-Rs (usually based upon the dye color). -- Spenser

I think it's an iTunes issue. Does it matter what source files you start with? (MP3, apple lossless, AIFF,...etc) :-(
