Problem adding files to existing CD-R

[Clarke.h]

Recently purchased Easy Media Creator 9 and installed it. Tried burning files to a CD-R with no problem. Then I wanted to add more files to the same CD. It would not allow me to do this function. Installed my old Easy CD Creator 5.1 on my other computer. Did the same procedures on that computer without any porblems. Now in order to copy mutiple files to disc I will have to copy them to a CD-RW disc and transport them to my old computer to put them on a CD. Is there something that I am doing wrong with Creator 9? Any assistance in this area would be greatly appreciated. Thank you oin advance.

In Creator Classic, uncheck the Read Only box, when you go to burn your data. You will then be able to add more data, at a later date.

Yes, to create multi-session data disc in Creator Classic, uncheck the 'READ ONLY' in the Burn dialog box. When you insert the disc later to add files, you should get a pop up asking to you add the previous session to the project. YOU MUST add the previous session or it may not be accessible in Windows even though it is there.

If you use Creator Classic, when you get to the burn dialog box, click the + for options and make sure the Read Only box is not checked. Then burn your files. The next time you want to add files in Creator Classic, a few seconds after your disc is read, you should see a balloon pop up over the appendable icon. Click the icon and then add your new files.

I don't use the Data Disc option on the Home screen but the options menu there should allow you to do the same thing.
