iMac not showing files on a burned DVD or CD

[mattberry]

My iMac is not seeing files on a dvd or a cd I burned. I got a copy from my university of Microsoft Office. This is legal. But it is a burned copy. I gave them a dvd to burn. But when I brought it home my iMac wouldn't see the files.

I put the dvd back in a pc and it showed the files. So I then burned a cd. It too would not show up on my iMac. It would show that there was less space on the disk then a totally blank disk. But it wouldn't show the dmg files. I don't know what to do. I need word.

Thanks,
MattBerry

what app was the disc burnt in? was it burned as mac compatible? have you tried opening disk utility with the cd in and going to the dmg on it and mounting it?

it was burnt with explorer on a pc. It doesn't show the dmg at all , so I can't mount it. It will only show in the properties window that there is less space than the full 700MB on a CD. Someone help.

do you have a flash drive you can move the dmg files over in?

I'm fairly certain that he's worked it out by now... this thread hasn't had any action for over two years. ;D
