A problem I hope someone can help me with.

I have Jaguar on my iMac.
I have a CD called Totally Mad, which is a PC disc.

I know there are scans on this dang thing, but how can I access them? I don't want to use the disc as you would on a PC, I just want to open the images in Photoshop and print a few of them. Sometimes on other PC discs I know there are images, but they seem to be bundled into one large file. There must be some software that will allow me to extract those scans.

Any advice?

Thanks in advance

What is the exact diagnosis? Are you unable to mount the CD (means: it will be "spitted out" after some times) or are there docīs "inside" the mounted volume which cannot be opened?

if you can see the files adn they wont open it could be a problem with multiple sessions on the Cd i found some pc writing programs when donig multiple sessions resulted in osx kinda ignoring the ability to opent he files, howevery you could see them fine and copying them to the HD made them work fine, dunno if the prob is still there

Yes, there are docs inside the mounted volume which cannot be opened.

Thank you

Can you open them when logged in as root?
