    After my previous problem of cheap blank CDs I have now purchased verbatim blank CDrs.

    I am trying to burn a .cue file to create a VCD. I am right clicking on the file and selecting open with toast. This opens toast and recognizes .bin/.cue. I then insert my blank verbatim cd and toast thinks for a while, then ejects the disk and I get the following message:

    Please insert a recordable disc

    I have an Imac G5 with OSX 10.3.9 and I am using Toast 7 Titanium

    Help please!

    Do you insert your disc before or after you click on the Record Disc button at the lower right?

    You can also go in System Prefs under Hardware - CDs & DVDs and tell the system to ignore blank disc, Toast will still see them and you can put them in the drive anytime.

    Ok I have tried the advice above, and I have updated toast to v7.1.2 as well, but I still have the same problem.

    Anyone else got an idea please?

    Are you able to use Toast to burn anything?

    Are you sure the disc is blank? Did you try another one? You said VCD, are you using a CDR or DVD. Should be a CDR for a VCD.

    Using CDR for VCD yes

    Have checked out apple forums and this does not seem an isolated problem since upgrading itunes......

    Beware...

  10. Maybe the bin/cue is too large for a standard CD-R. Many PC users create VCD that are overburned and just don't work correctly.
