Hello,
A few days ago I added a folder containing three data files to a multissession data CD (containing some files already). The result was that only the three files were written and the title of the CD was changed and took the name of the unwritten folder. Can you explain me the reason of that?
Best Regards

I'm not sure what happened but I can speculate.

Is it possible that the first sessions were burned with a different application or on a different computer, with different settings in the data window or with an older version of Toast? Based on other posts I've seen, multi-session CDs can get messed up if each session is not burned the same. If you can't see the previous sessions you may need to mount the disc on a PC which should read the ISO 9660 formatted files presuming you burned in the Mac & PC format.
I'm just a fellow Toast-user so please don't blame Roxio for any misguidance I may provide. And do let me know if your issue gets solved. Cheers from Eugene, Oregon!

Hello,
I can see all the sessions. If I remember well I burned all of them by Toast 6, using the ISO 9660 format, CD-ROM XA, Joliet, on my Mac mini G4 PPC.
Best Regards
