[QUOTE="D300, post: 1429074, member: 133428"] I was asked to copy a couple of lecture CDs for someone this week. After burning the CDs I find they do no play in a traditional (ie old) CD players. I opened the originals and find the files are format AIFF-C audio when I burned the copies they came out as aiff. The AIFF-C will play the aiff will not in the older players. This is my first foray into making what amounts to music CDs. I do know the person I made these for drives older model cars, 2000 and 2003 models. What would be the proper format to re-burn this in. I looked under my Itunes and cannot find an obvious selection for other formats. (see below for the way I burned them) PARTICULARS: MacBook Pro, Itunes 10.5. The way I copied these was to drag the CD file to my desk top (not import to itunes) take out CD, put in blank and copy to CD icon and drag to burn. I do not have Toast or any burning program only what comes with a MBP. I chose not to import because these are not lectures that are important to me. Why did the files change format in this way and how can I correct them to play? Any thoughts appreciated, D300 [/QUOTE]
