I have had my imac G4 now for over a year and know my way round it pretty good.
The problem i have is that i used to have a PC (windows XP) and i burned alot of photos which i now don't posess.They used to work on my mac fine but last night i went to look through them and there doesn't seem to be anything on the discs, 20 in total.
They load ok and then "untitled CDR" comes up on the desktop and when i click onit, it opens a new window that doesn't have anything in.....saying that there is 660.7Mbs free on disc.
If i use finder to open it then it says that its a blank disc but when i went to burn one it wouldn't let me (strange)
But it gets weirder i also burn't some discs on my mac about 3 months ago and now they show up the same and they Definatley Definatley used to work.If i look on the disc there is definatley something on it as i can see the band where its been burnt.
I gave one to my friend who has a powerbook and he got some folders of it so why isn't my mac reading them.
Do i need a CD cleaner or something...
I have been on other forums with this problem and i have been accused of not burning the discs but i can telll you honestly that i have (i'm not that much of a novice )LOL
Any help would be greatly Greatly appreciated as i'm pulling my hair out.
