Hi guys, I am having some serious stress with my iMac when it comes to burning discs.
If I wish to burn a folder of photos etc on DVD, the iMac does this beautifully and effortlessly, but sometimes, I don't need the large size capacity of a DVD to burn data on, and a regular CD would have more than adequate storage.
As soon as I pop my blank CD into the drive, the iMac whirrs a few seconds, then spits the disc out. I have checked, re-checked and re-re-e-re-re-re-re checked that the disc is blank, and tried using other discs from the same spindle of brand new blank CDs.
For what it's worth, the CDs are TDK branded, CD-R80 700MB 80 min ( up to 52x speed).
My iMac's specs are as follows:
27' iMac OS X
Version 10.7
Processor 2.66 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory: 16GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Startup Disk Macintosh HD
Graphics ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7 (11A511)
Like I have mentioned, I have no problems whatsoever with burning DVD's, it's only Cds that the Mac won't even accept, let alone record to.
Thanks in advance!!
