MAC "super"-drive problem

[HYNES]

everytime I insert a blank cd I'm asked to prepare it for burning. When i hit prepare it ejects the cd. i've tried 5 different types of CD including a music one, same problem. Anyone got any suggestions?

Weird, I recently purchased a new fangled McGregorintosh. She works great most the time. Sept, she ain't like fussin and mussin.

In the PREPARE box, there should be 3 options...
Which do you choose?

how long ago did you purchase, i know mac has an "important" super-drive update. your live update should catch that shit.

change your preferences .

Jermaine: im selecting the standard box ( the others are mp3 & audio)

Dusty: i'm in the process of downloading the Updatecombo 10.2.6, should the drive update be included in that?

Kozik: i don't think you can just "turn" gay.

[kozik]

go to preferences. select 'cds and dvds'

it will open a dialogue box

change it so it reads

when you insert a blank cd: open finder
when you insert a blank dvd :ask what to do
" music cd: open i tunes
" picturecdpen iphoto
" vudeo dvd: open dvd player

this will fix the problem.

preferences on the finder?

[kozik]

click the blue apple icon...then scroll to system preferences. then select cds and dvds from the second set of choices 'HARDWARE' by clicking on it. then set it like i said above,restart the computer it will work fine.
