Ceremony Music - Help!

Hi All

I'm really struggling with physically putting my ceremony music on to a CD. We've chosen two songs (one for entrance and one for signing the register) but every time I burn it to a CD it won't play. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong or is there a music website I need to do this on. I'm not too technical so I don't know if it's something I'm doing or not doing. I'm even willing to pay to have someone do it for me as long as I end up with a playable CD I can give to the registry office. Any help or suggestions welcome.

Thanks.

Shelly x ?

Shelly, is it possible to put the tracks onto something like an iPod, iPad, or mp3 player?

Most registry offices have a lead that will connect to such a device via the headphone socket. Then it's just a case of someone pressing play for each of the tracks.

I had a similar issue, although mine was largely the fact I have Spotify on my phone and refuse to spend any money on all the music I need. Our venue thankfully has the option to use CD, phone, iPod... anything that can plug into their speakers, so I'm just going to do that - and ask my brother and the Best Man to have the same playlist saved on their phones just in case!

If you have to use a CD, are you sure it's a re-writable CD? In my vague tech knowledge, you need to have a certain type to be able to recognise and play certain music files.

On that note, what type of file is the music you're trying to burn? I only know the obvious ones, but certain types won't burn onto CD.

Are you sure you've downloaded the music correctly? If it's from iTunes, I think they have something that means you can only play it on an Apple product?

PS. I don't really know what I'm talking about, but these are just a few quick ideas that spring to mind!
