Version 7 of Toast Titanium was when Roxio got it right. A simple, streamlined interface with lots of easily accessible useful features that perfectly complimented the OSX interface at the time. Every year Roxio wheels out its latest 'heavyweight' and every year it buckles under the weight of its bloat. The UI is a mess and it seems to increasingly rely on all of the additional software to keep sales alive.
Roxio need to take a step back and re-focus on the actual Toast application. Strip out all of the horrid animations, nasty burn progress windows and bloat to make an app that's lightweight and totally mac-like from top to bottom. Hopefully they're listening.
Crashes everytime. Unusable ! I figured out now there's at least one free tool for every part of this soft. Too slow, too big, way too complicated. I hate me for buying this !
WARNING This soft does NOT perform something that should not be a problem when burning an audio CD: CD-Text info are not added to the aiff tracks so the only info you have is 1 2 3....; also, volume equalizer is not an option. Both features are included when burning a disk with the imbedded iTunes soft. No reply from the developer. A real disappointment
I try to convert my purchased DVD to a format for my iPad and I get:
"15 files are in an unsupported format and cannot be imported."
So, I figure, I'll make a copy so I can mount it and play it on my macbook air while I travel. But, I get:
"The DVD you are trying to copy is encrypted. DVD decryption software is not included in this software. Roxio does not provide technical support for decryption software distributed on the Internet or in any other way."
When I compare these messages to the advertising blurb above about copying my movies and DVDS, I feel cheated.
v.11 of Toast continues the effort to brush up the graphic interface while adding more flexibility to its immediate access to documents to burn. Performance is speedy and reliable. The software's inability to burn encrypted documents keeps software like Mac the Ripper in business, and now MTR is even usable in Lion (v. 3;0).
Acquired this copy through a MacUpdate package promo, making software a bargain. This is still the standard in burning software, and savvy users should be able to sidestep occasional limitations.
The full v11.0.4 installer/disk image update can be found at http://softwareupdates.roxio.com/gm/updaters/mac/toast/titanium/v11/toast_11_titanium_1104(709).dmg
Doesn't look like one was ever released for v 11.0.3 (700), however
why doesn't roxio own updating mechanism doesn't detect newer versions of Toast? The Toast self updating has NEVER worked! Come on Roxio, what's the problem? Don't you test this Toast self updating routine on a Mac yourselves?
Um, we're going to need details, because *most* of us don't have this problem with Toast 9. What kind of file are you burning and how? To what media? With what steps?
That is what you need to tell us, or preferably, Roxio via their forums.
WARNING: I bought this (standard, not Pro) yesterday as an upgrade from version 9. The site and the promos say that you get a FREE Blu-Ray plugin with your purchase. You DON'T (at least, there's no obvious way of getting it without paying the extra $20), and Roxio doesn't respond to my support questions regarding this matter.
As for the standard version: it acts and performs exactly like v9 - only the icon and some colors are different.
I also purchased the upgrade by download and did not get the FREE Hd/BluRay plugin. I contacted Roxio who referred me to Digital River with a telephone number. After holding for 30 minutes, I hung up. A waste of money as Version 9 does mainly the same as this new version. Makes me very disappointed and frustrated.
Might depend on what discs you're using. Memorex came out with some screwed up discs that are media code "CCMG." and there isn't even any info on videohelp.com about that media code. Every one of them failed I took them back twice. Damndest thing is, the first pack I bought of the same brand off the same shelf with identical packaging were Ritek media code and all 50 burned without a hitch. But that is with 9.02 so maybe it is Toast this time causing your issue.
I can't believe they have released such a buggy version of this software. It crashes often and it appears to have a conflict with iTunes. I may have to go back to version 8, so sad :(
I'm having the same problem with TT 9 crashing with certain burns, whereas 8 doesn't. I got used to keeping an older version of Toast around as the newer version tend to be picky and bug-ridden. Toast is still a very good product but it's rather disgusting how they churn out new 'big' version so they can charge you again and again and again...
Using Toast 8.01 with OSX 10.4.11, get a prompt from Toast asking if I want to upgrade to 8.03. I answer "yes" and get shunted to Roxio's site. Get a prompt for "completing" my profile, which I was unable to complete LAST YEAR, do to website issues. I try to complete my profile, but am unable to include my country code using any browser that I have and therefore again, cannot complete my profile.
I decide to just go ahead and use Toast 8.01, but in the process of verifying a CD image, everything on my system slows and the fans on my G5 single start running like a jet engine. With patience (and probably some luck) I managed to ride through the problem, but still have to work with Toast 8.01 as I am unable to get the update to 8.03.
What did I do? I downloaded LiquidCD here at MacUpdate and burned the CD image.

Toast hangs while ntfs-3g CPU usage skyrockets.
Unmounting ntfs drives seems to solve the issue, still a bummer.
Anyone had a similar experience?
