i have a cd with a program on it, i want to make an image file from it , how would i do this?
 
Using Disk Utility:

Insert the CD or DVD disc in your computer's optical drive and select it in the list of disks and volumes.
Choose File > New > "Disk Image from (name of disc)."
Type a name for the disk image and choose an image format.
To require a password to access the contents of the disk image, choose "AES-128 (recommended)" from the Encryption pop-up menu.
Click Save.
When creating the disk image finishes, eject the original CD or DVD.
Select the disk image in the list and choose Images > Burn.
When the Burn Disc dialog appears, insert a blank CD or DVD.
To select additional options, such as making the disc appendable, click the triangle in the top-right corner.

Click Burn.

Of course, that wouldn't be because you'll only have the original program disk for a short time, because discussion of contravening copyright is also against this forum's rules.

The process is detailed in Toast 6 Titanium's Help: It's the first reference if you search for "Disk Image". If you have Toast 6 Light version, don't know - maybe can't do it.
