...Im looking for a program to use on my macbook that can easily design CD covers / Booklets which is free.
I found this one on the apple site but once downloaded tells you that it costs!
Apple - Downloads - Productivity Tools - CD and DVD Label Maker for Mac - Anyone know any free ones to download??
Hi
Cristiano - welcome to the forum!
First, I agree w/
Chscag about potential templates, etc. that might be used in some of your other apps, such as mentioned. Second, give us a better idea on your needs, e.g. do you want to print labels for putting on the optical media and/or do you want to make jewel box labels - some apps/programs that I've used in the past (PCs a while back and now Mac laptops) will do one or both.
My needs now are minimal and confined to putting printable labels on my burned CD-Rs (MP3 DLs) and DVD-Rs w/ my Canon Pixma ink jet printer which has a special tray to load the 'printable' disc - use their rather clunky software, My Image Garden (pic below) but works for my needs - SO, another source if you have a printer that can put labels directly on CDs and/or make attachable paper ones is their proprietary software.
Finally, I just looked in the App Store, and reviewed the first 3 items - cost $10 to $25 - reviews were quite mixed w/ some major 'thumbs down' comments - looks like 'hit or miss' w/ these apps, even if there is an upfront cost - you can do some googling (see second pic) - unless someone comes along w/ a great specific recommendation, you likely will have to download either 'free' or 'trial' apps and try them yourself - sorry that I cannot be of much more help, but must admit that when I did more of this task on PCs, much more software was available and the programs that I used were good to excellent.
