Hi everyone,
I hope I'm posting this in the right forum. I recently bought a Ti Powerbook and must say that I'm loving it. Much easier to use than my PC.
I do have a question about burning pictures to a CD that I hope someone can answer. I exported a file of pictures from iPhoto to a CD by dragging and dropping which all seemed to go smoothly. Now I would like to add another file of pictures to the same CD (and then plan to take them into a store for developing). Each time I try to add the second file I get a message saying that the file can not be added because the CD can not be modified. I wonder if anyone has any suggestions on how I can add multiple files to one CD. I am using the CD burning program that came preloaded on the computer and I do not have toast.
Thanks for your help.

You can make multi-volume multi-session CDs with DiskCopy.app [in the /Applications/Utilities folder]

This is one of the biggest problems with the Mac OS: it does not burn multiple sessions well. As the previous poster mentioned, you have to use the application called Disk image (found in your utilities folder) to make an image of a folder containing what you want to burn. Then you have burn that image. When you do this, you will get an option to leave the session open.

Can someone explain it better? Is there an easier way. From what I have heard, it does not get better in Panther.
Yes, I know I could buy a PC, but why?
