Why cant I copy a CD to a DVD with creator 9

You should be able to copy the files from a CD to a DVD, but you probably can't use the Disc Copier program to do it. Try using Creator Classic, select your CD as the source, and select all the files/folders, and drag them to the project, then write that to DVD.

That assumes you're copying a Data CD. If it's an Audio CD, you can't do it directly, you'll need to extract the tracks to files on your HD, either as .WAV or .MP3 files, then you can write those to DVD, either as a Data DVD, or a Music DVD.

So, give us some more details about exactly what you're trying to copy, and what you've tried.
