Toast Crashes When More Than One .m4A File Dragged Into It

[Crisis Productions]

Every time I try to drag the m4a files for an album I recently purchased from iTunes into Toast 7 Titanium (burning as Audio CD), it crashes with the following:

As you can see, I am running Snow Leopard (on a Mac Pro 2.66 with 8GB RAM). I tried dragging just one of the songs into Toast and it was fine. As soon as I dragged over a second one it, it crashed. This only happens if I have Audio CD format selected. If MP3 Disc format is selected, it is fine and I have burnt a cd. However, the cd player in my car doesn't play mp3's (yes, it's older), so I need an Audio CD.

 

Using the Add function I'm not able to even load one of the songs from this album. It should also be noted that this happens only with this one album. All others work fine. I just tried another experiment, where I loaded one song from the album, then several songs from a different playlist. This worked without issue. However, as soon as I tried dragging another song from the album in, Toast crashed.

 

Can anyone offer a solution as to how I can over come this problem and burn an Audio CD of the album? Your help is greatly appreciated.

I don't know why that's happening but I can think of possible workarounds. One is to use Toast or iTunes to convert the tracks to AIFF before adding to the Audio CD window. Another is to use iTunes to burn the audio CD.

Thanks tsantee,

 

I took your advice and converted the tracks in iTunes (to .WAV though). They dragged over into Toast without any problems.

 

It still bothers me that the original tracks caused Toast to crash though, since they really shouldn't have. If anyone has some insight into what caused the exception code listed in the crash report above, please feel free to share with the rest of us.
