| My iMac is used but can probably get help from a Mac tech who works here on the island if I have to go that route. Save me a trip to the city. I purchased a used Mac so I could get a better feel for how Macs work before deciding what I want to purchase when I'm ready to make a total conversion to Mac leaving Windows in the dust.
Anyway back to the problem. I loaded the audio CD into the iMac, opened and dragged the file to the desktop. The sound file is a AIFF audio file and the size of the file is 392.4 MB. I can play all the commercial music CDs I've tried so far. I've also been able to save tracks to iTunes from those CDs. The homemade CD is still a bit glitchy when I load it into the iMac but I can eventually get it to play. I'll ask my friend if she has another copy, perhaps this CD is bad??
The Word document is another story, I can't get it to work in the iMac at all. I'll talk to the Mac tech to find out what he thinks about this problem, maybe take the CD with the Word doc to his place and see if it works on his Macs..... Emmmmmmmm can't think
what else to try. I don't have any other documents on a CD that were created on a Mac to practice loading, copying etc. I'll ask the tech if he'll copy a few files to a CD for me to play with. I'll let you know what happens.. Thanks for all your help.  |
