CD Burning Issues

[sageenos]

I've been having problems with burning cds ever since I got my powerbook. I was able to burn some data to a cdr and retrieve it, and so I thought I had figured it out. Well, I tried burning some more data to the same cdr...and now it won't let me. I've tried everything I can think of, and I'd really appreciate any help anyone can offer.

mac os x doesn't have cd-r session capabilities built-in (at least i'm pretty sure) you might want to use toast or find a little freeware app that does it

Actually Mac OS X, at least 10.2 onward can do multisession.

actually you can use the disk copy application in at least as far back as x.1 by burning disk images and i think there may be some sort of preference you can set that allows you to multi-session burn.
i am using x.2 and disk copy in x.2 is quite revised from x.1 so i can't really look and see.

read that thread that someone linked to earlier
someone probably posted how to do it (making this post of mine entirely unneccesary)
