Hello all:
I have a problem that has left me stumped. My daughter has an IBM Thinkpad issued by her University. She received it when she was a Freshman and will be getting a new one this August when she starts her Junior year. She has quite a bit of music that is on her iTunes for Windows. The university will not transfer files, so it's up to her (me) to help her archive her files, including her music. She has a cd burner on this machine, but not a DVD burner and over 10 GB in music files alone. My thought was to somehow burn these with my iMac's DVD burner.
I was able to connect to the iMac with Windows sharing turned on. I was also able to transfer the files. When I started getting ready to burn, I discovered you first have create a disk image file (.dmg), but in looking around on the net, I see that Windows machines have a lot of trouble dealing with .dmg files. Then I happened upon a site that said that the newest version of disk copy allows you to create master which works ok on Windows machines. Clearly when I selected that, a cd-r file was create rather than a .dmg. And it burned just fine on a dvd with disk copy. But even my iMac won't recognize the finished dvd, which makes me wonder if this route works with dvds as opposed to cds. Can anyone help me with this mess?
