I'm so frustrated. No matter what songs I burn onto a CD on my macbook pro, the first two tracks are always defective (it won't play on iTunes). On every single bloody CD. It doesn't matter if I change the songs. And once I take it out and put it back in, the computer doesn't even recognize the bloody thing and it just spits it back out. I tried it on my sister's macbook and it still won't play. It won't play on my car stereo. I'm frankly very disappointed.
My laptop's a macbook pro, core 2 duo late 2006-early 2007 version.

well thats odd..
I don't burn CDs anymore since I live with my iPhone, but back when I did, I remember having a similar issue yours reminded me of. The first 1 2 or 3 songs were messed up when i burnt CDs, after trying like 10, I tried it on a different machine and the same thing happened... I threw away the Discs, bought better quality ones, and it worked fine with those...
not sure if your issue is the discs, but it just reminded me of that... -
Ok. I'll try better quality CD's and let you know. These are the HP ones I picked up for cheap.

Try burning at a much slower speed eg 2-4X. If you have crappy media then it won't be able to handle the higher speeds as well. Also make sure you not bumping the laptop a lot during the burning.
