  1. My mate transfered a video of my grans birthday onto DVD+R. We've just tried play it in a few macs at work and none of them can read it. Is there a quick fix – how I can read this disc. The main computer I work with is:

    Dual 1.8 GHz G5

    ATA-6 Bus

    PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-107D:

    Manufacturer: PIONEER
    Model: PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-107D
    Revision: A707
    Drive Type: CD-RW/DVD-RW
    Disc Burning: Apple Supported/Shipped
    Removable Media: Yes
    Detachable Drive: No
    Protocol: ATAPI
    Unit Number: 0
    Socket Type: Internal

    Is there anything else you need to know. Can I just update some software?

    Cheers in advance.

    PS

    I need to work this out as quick as possible cause it's supposed to be a fathers day present.

    As long as you are running OS 10.3 or 10.4 there should be no problem with mounting DVD+R media and playing those DVDs on that Mac.

    If the DVD was burned on a standalone DVD recorder it needs to be finalized before it can be played on other devices, such as a Mac.

  3. OK - cheers for the quick reply. I'll get back to my mate cause he may not have finalised the DVD.
