While it has been a while since I have used it, I have used Nero Burning Rom
for years without any more than minor difficulties. As I recall, it requires
mouse navigation for most things, but it is doable. When I needed to back up
DVDs, I used AnyDVD ripper to rip the DVDs and then Nero Burning Rom to burn
the backups. Things may have changed since I haven't needed to back up a DVD
for months, maybe even a year, but in the past the accessibility never
changed much, it was always a bit clunky and clumsy, but it got the job
done.
Also, for those wanting to copy Audio CDs, Slysoft, the same folks that make
AnyDVD have a program called Exact Audio Copy that worked very well and made
bit-for-bit copies of audio CDs. I can't speak to the current accessibility
since I haven't needed to use it for years and let my license lapse, but it
worked great and allowed me to back up a lot of out of print CDs and some
newer CDs that were supposed to be uncopyable as well. The bonus to their
products is that they offer a free trial on all of their products, so you
can try them out. If they would make their burning package included with
AnyDVD accessible, it would be the perfect package for DVDs since they have
one of the best rippers available, but unfortunately they switched over to a
completely graphical format for the burner and it became completely
inaccessible.
Anyway, it is possible that Nero Burning Rom has been rendered inaccessible
since I last used it, but since it remained accessible while other Nero
applications gained and lost accessibility, I think it is likely that it
might still be useable if one experiments with using the mouse keys. One
detail I just remembered that made it so tricky is that one has to navigate
to certain areas like the type of project you want to start like a DVD or CD
and then, while the mouse pointer is hovering over the media type, use the
arrow keys to navigate the flyover menu that pops up to select the specific
type of project you want to start. As I recall, the use of flyover menus is
both one of the difficulties to learning how to use it and also one of the
things that makes it accessible once you learn how to navigate them. Again,
this may have changed and they may have finally done in accessibility
completely, but it is worth a try. I've used Nero Burning Rom for a long
time and not once had to give money to Nero directly. I always used the
latest version from my last optical drive or other hardware purchase that
included a copy.
HTH,

Hi Russ and Everyone,
No, all it says is "System Pull Down" or Move". This is with Nero Burning
ROM in Nero 10.
I don't know what the Nero StartSmart does.
It's really not very accessible and it's very confusing, and I would love
for someone to challenge me with this issue, and I won't get upset,
either, as maybe I would learn something. <smile>
I'll never waste my money again on Nero.
Thanks.

I never had this problem until Nero 10.

Subject: Nero 10, was Re: copying audio CDs
Hi Everyone,
While on the subject of copying CD's I want to ask a question.
Is it possible for someone to do a little tutorial on copying CD's,
DVD's, and burning CD's and DVD's with Nero 10?
Since many on this list have said Nero 10 is accessible, I think a
tutorial would be great. It is greatly needed.
I do not like Nero at this point, and unless I'm shown how to use it
very successfully, I would not recommend it to anyone.
I only bought it because I was told it was accessible, and had I
known what I now know, I would have never wasted my money on Nero. It
is very hard to use, and I don't think it's all that accessible, just
my opinion. <smile>
Are there any Aps for Nero?
Now if anyone disagrees with me, that's okay. <smile> I just need to
learn how to use this awful program that I paid for last year.
Thanks much.

Speaking of Nerro 10, Would it be possible for someone from Gw Micro to
take a look at the demo version and tell me why when I use the alt key to
access the menu bar, WE 7.5.1 won't read it?

Subject: Re: copying audio CDs
I also would love to know how to do this in Windows seven. I often
need to copy CD's and I can't do it, and I still do not like Nero 10
at all, and I find it very cumbersome to use.
I'm still having trouble burning CD's as well.
I can't even figure out how to use InfraRecorder. I guess I'm kind of
stupid. lol.
Any help is greatly appreciated, please.
Thanks much.
Blessings,

I have to copy a number of audio CDs from a master I've made. I've never

or a small program I can download free that would enable me to duplicate
these quickly? I only have 1 CD drive on my computer, Windows 7 32bit.
Thanks!
