do a search in the Find.
look for CD Burner, if its there its there, probably in
Itunes.
If theres a burner on the mac you're using that is

Oh there's no help for you now. Your on one of those things.
;)

P.S. the only mac burning software that I've heard of is
iTunes or Toast. So try and locate one of those.

Just pour some hydrochloric acid on a CD. Go raid the
Chemistry lab or something. That'll burn them good, fuck the
Mac.

ok

if its audio, do this:

open iTUNES. make a new playlist (bottom lefthand corner)

drag and drop all the songs you want on the cd. Arrange them
in the order you want.

Put in the cd, and hit "burn cd" at the top right.

wa la

If its files... do this:

insert a cd into your comp.

it will show up on the desktop

drag and drop all the files you want into the cd icon.

hit eject

it will say "do you want to burn cd?" and hit yes

it will burn it, and then eject it

in either case, when its done, check and see if it worked,
just to be safe

cheers

Great colours. Sorry I don't buy computers becuase they have
great colours. They are a tool not an accessory. They look
hideous anyway. All the shiny plastic. It's enough to make
you sick.

No no no..... colors are not the only factor on a mac... who
ever brought that up is slow... check out the dual 1.25 ghz
tower just recently announced....here. Most of the
studios I have been in use nothing but macs and protools set
ups. The new Mac OS 10 is amazing............... and its
funny to see that the beta testing of OS 10 (unix based core
operating system) came out something like a year and a half
before XP ever was mentioned... what a blatant rip. Windows
has its hands on everything now.... MSN.... MSNBC... A good
chuck of shares in Time Warner.... and not to mention all
the buisness's they bought out in the past...... Try toast
for data (files, apps, ...etc) and iTunes for audio.... dont
listen to these guys

dude Windows XP is based on Windows 2000, which was based on
Windows NT 4, which was based on Windows NT 3 which has a
UNIX core. Count the amount of years that windows has been
with a UNIX core. About 1993 I reckon. A long, long, long
time before MAC OS X was even on the drawing boards.

Still I think its really funny that in XP everything is a
blatant rip of OS 10.....dock.... hierarchy of folders....
the color scheme... everything...... but thats not exactly
true... Mac OS 10 was the brain child of steve jobs Next
operating system (unix core system)... which was in
development around 93 it didnt do to well... so when he was
offered the position of ceo.... he integrated it to the
mac..... but in XP a lot of changes in the os are very
similar... the terminal.... for one example

I dont want to start a flame war...... just trying to show
that the macintosh isnt a shit computer... and that its used
for a lot of the grafic/audio/video that (creative)
companies use all over the world.... Windows has its ups and
down sides... so does a mac....
