Thanks Bruce, That's the advice I'd given him already, plus to try the application from another account - he hasn't got back to me yet. Roxio support pages don't recognise "exit code: 255" so I'm presuming it's an OSX message. Whilst obviously getting him burning again is my prime purpose, I was hoping that someone with greater experience/knowledge than I have would be able to tell me the meaning of this message, so I could (possibly) prevent any recurrence, or know what "exit code: 255" means in case I ever encounter it again.
