Driver for IOMega CD Burner?

[travelgz]

Hi,

How does it work with external cd burners on OS X? I have an IOMega CD USB burner. I use it with Windows 98 (doesn't work on Windows 2000, but I guess that's not important). I know it supports OS 9, or something. But how do I make it work on OS X? I know they have no support yet for OS X. Is there some generic way to make a CD Burner work on OS X?

Thanks!

Dunno. I have the ZipCD USB drive too. They said they won't work on Powerbooks, but I proved them wrong. 8) I'm going to wait until I get the 10.1 upgrade from FTP here, as nobody around me has it. I'll let you know if I succeed, though.

OK, I will wait. In the meantime I will try to look around and see what's out there that can help me.

I have an iomega ZipCD. and, as shitty a burner as it is, it has worked like a champ ever since i could burn through iTunes (10.0.3?). It works like a champ in X.1 ever since g48.
THERE IS HOPE!


(also works under toast X)

OK, I will try to burn some music with iTune on this wonderfully bulky burner.

But as for Toaster, are you talking about the 30-day trial update to classic Toaster? Are there no freebies out there? Is it so hard for developers to port classic apps to osx apps that there's a hefty charge for the porting?

Thanks

I'm talkin about the Toast Titanium public beta. And I think it will be free to titanium customers...

Mine works fine in 10.1 with the Toast beta.

But, am I the only ZipCD owner who has regretted buying this burner since the day you bought it? This damn thing burns on like 2 brands of CDRs, and even then its slow, bulky, and doesn't burn correctly more than 80% of the time.... Or did I just get a lemon?
