I recently had a Lacie DVD-R burner installed in my mac @ home. After burning some files onto a DVDR cd I took it to my office mac. But for some reason it doesn't read this cd. Any suggestions?

Well, ftaok, if you think I'm too stupid to know....
Just kidding!!
Yea, it does have a DVD drive for movies. The work mac has a reg CD-RW burner, but not DVD-R burner. Sorry if I was unclear. I'm just wondering if some type of software is needed to read the DVD data on the DVD-R cd.
I was on the Lacie's website and it doesn't refer to anything on it's FAQ's.
I'm not too familiar with DVD-R burners and the compatibility of the DVD-R cds with other OS systems including PC. Just wondering if there was some process I wasn't aware of. If anyone can help or offer a solution, I would appreciate it.
And thanks, ftaok.

How much data? If it is less than 650 or 700MB why not use a CD-R? If it is more then that, then it would make sense to use DVD media. If you need to use DVD media, check to see if you are burning using R as that has the greatest possibility of compatibility. Also make sure the session gets closed as well.
