Hello,
we have an older LaCieexternal USB CDRW drive. It works fine on my
wife's clamshell iBook in Panther, and even on my 8500 in Jaguar,
bothh using iTunes at least, but I've never gotten it to work in
os9 with Toast on my 9500, nor with iTunes for that matter- they
both report that no cd drive exists.. I've several CDs worth of
backups to make (I'm doing an EVN Total Conversion and I want to
backup my graphics) and I think that it's time to wipe and reformat
my drive (five years). I'd also like to make a backup copy of my
9.1 cd, which I think that I would need Toast for. The fact that
it works under OSX on this machine also tells me that it should
work in 9. As far as I can tell I have all of the authoring
support and USB extensions, and in fact the drive operates fine as
a CD drive (albeit slow) so I know that the computer can see it.
I'm using Toast 4.1 deluxe or whatnot.
What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any insights...
Quite possibly you need an update to Toast 5 to "see" the drive...
did you check out Roxio's web-site for supported drives?
