I can't tell you how much I appreciate this video. Your instructions were so easy for me - a tech challenged retired teacher. Got a manual copied so I could print it and begin to use the machine it's for. Thank you very much!!
Good video, I have a very good question that nobody can seem to answer, for years I have been using Nero 7 to burn my data dvds, but I just realized that it is a pretty old program now... I wonder, do newer programs like a newer nero burn the disk BETTER? or for instance will burning them through windows 7 through windows exploror burn them better and make them last longer? Or is there just not a difference? I have some pretty old burns like probably over 5 years old now that still work fine... But I just want to know should I update the program or just keep using Nero 7?
I have just received a zip folder of 263 photos via a website called 'we transfer' and I wish to burn whole contents a DVD. Will I be able to transfer these to burn this in one go, or will I have to isolate each item and do them individually?
I'm using a DVD-R disc and selected the 'use with CD/DVD player' option. Then added my files and burn to disc. But now I want to finalise it so I can't add any additional files to the disc. How do I do that?
I have copied (an pasted) some software Applications onto a usb Flash Drive. I next want to Copy and Paste them, from the Flash Drive, onto a dvd disc. (I choose dvd rather than cd because the capacity is greater.) Can I be confident the Softwares will open, once burned to disc, to preserve them? Copy and pasting a couple of times over should not degrade them - right? Thanks.
If you use a DVD to save files and it is writeable but not re-writeable R not RW, can you keep adding files, but not editing the already saved files, or is this a one shot deal?
If you have a re-writable disc you should be able to reuse it even if you choose the cd/dvd player option. RW disc allow you to delete data from the disc whereas standard cds will only allow files to be written on the disc, not deleted. Hope this helps!! -Ryan
I have word 2010 & it doesn't have 'burn' up the top, so how can I burn data to a disc. I've used 'copy' but when I looked at the data copied to the disc, all the documents were 'read only'. How can I prevent this. It usually only happens if I overload 'Word' while I'm working on a document & it makes a back up file (which isn't always 'read only').
Question can you put games downloaded off the internet on to these discs and can you put game files on flash drives if they have the GBs to store it on the drive and then plug it in a laptop so you can use it there from there?
By mistake i have selected first option , i want second ..can i get these options again ?? Pls reply how to convert rw to r ..i want to burn my file pls reply
I hope that someone may be able to help me? On my desktop, I recorded a music track from media player onto an audio disc. Unfortunately, I recorded the track into 'data' disc mode, and I'm unable to 'reverse' the track process. It will not play on CD players, and the track is the only copy that I have. Thank you and please advise...Many thanks...Gonzo🎧🎸.
Please answer this question.I have copy and pasted my files from my PC to DVD-R.When I opened that DVD-R folder in same PC,it showed the file in it.I did not burn the file.Will the info get lost?Will the file play on other computers also?please reply please.
+Harshit Agarwal Usually it wouldn't make a difference (if you are, lets say, transferring something like images or text documents on to a CD). But sometimes, if you buy software from a company, it comes in a proprietary file structure and somewhere in that structure, there is a bootloader for the software/OS to tell it to start once you insert the CD. If you copy the files from the CD, you will only transfer the content (but not the bootloader). The only way to make sure everything is fully transferred (mainly the bootloader) is by burning the image.
I have a prob I want to copy a PDF file in writeable disc .I have inserted it but when I copy and then paste the file it copies ,i.e it shows the icon in the dic drive but I can't open it???????????????? it says the file can't be opened.The file is not corrupt what do I do???
What if I want a dvd to be able to watch videos when is set to a dvd player, but when is set to a laptop or desktop, I also want it to have data so one can use it as a usb. How can both work in one dvd?????
Will this process work for "Executable Files" (.exe)? I ask because I would like to use the DVD as my "install" disk to install the program on another computer. If not, what would be a more efficient procedure of copying .EXE/Install files to DVD? Your assistance on this would be highly appreciated.
I accidentally deleted all the data in CD of my parents marriage😭😭. I don't know now what to do i really want to backup all the data again. Is this possible?
Hello! We are more than happy to help you troubleshoot your issue. Are you using Windows 7? If you do not see the "burn" option in a folder, try maximizing the windows so that it covers the entire screen. If the window is too small, some of the options may not appear. Feel free to email us at info@instructorgadget. com and i can send you a screen shot of what this should look like. Thanks!!
I can't tell you how much I appreciate this video. Your instructions were so easy for me - a tech challenged retired teacher. Got a manual copied so I could print it and begin to use the machine it's for. Thank you very much!!

Thank you so much. Very easy to follow along! I am now all backed up!
If I choose "like a usb flash drive", does that mean i could add more files to this same dvd disc without deleting the existing files on it?

I hope that someone may be able to help me? On my desktop, I recorded a music track from media player onto an audio disc.
