Patrick, are you burning the talks in separate sessions? By that I mean burn a talk, eject the CD, burn another talk later, etc?
Yes. I'll burn my PowerPoint presentation for one month to the disk and then do the same with the next month's and so on throughout the year. Each presentation is only about 5 megs so I much prefer to cram a whole bunch on a single disk.
It's been a while since I've done any multisession stuff, but I seem to remember there's a way to incorporate files from previous sessions into the current session. I don't remember if that was in the main Finder burn stuff or if it was in Toast.
The only settings I can find are where I am given a choice between "Write Session" and "Write Disk" and another where I choose between "Mac & PC" and "Mac Only". In every case I always go with "Write Session" and "Mac & PC". Surely there must be some way to do this (unless, of course, Bill Gates gets a cut out of every blank CD/DVD sold <grin>). Thanks for the input, Patrick

I'll bet someone here can answer this question.
I have found that after I burn a bunch of my astronomy talks onto CD, when I try to access the CD with a Windows machine it can only see the last file added while Macs can see them all.
Is that normal?
When I add a file I'm always sure to check the section that says the files will be readable by both Macs and Windows.
