np thx for time

A DVD+R is essentially the same as DVD-R, at least when it comes to burning it. You should be able to what you've been doing up till now. Just pop in the blank disc, and use a Burn folder to write to the disc.

Try it out and let us know how it goes (unless you already have, which is why you've come asking for help)

You could try PatchBurn

The only reason I don't think he needs Patchburn is OSX seems to be saying his burner is supported. If it does -R it should do +R just the same as long as the burner supports it, and OSX seems to be saying it does. Did you try the Burn Folder like Kash suggested?

It maybe your system does not like the brand of DVD+R you are using.

Mine will burn Memorex DVDs, and it used to read them no problem, then later, only if I restarted with one already in the drive. But now, nada.
