Patrick,
We have had similar problems in the past. Fuji, Maxell, Memorex, Sony all
work. Fuji works the best...and Sony's only work at 2x on our Iomega CD-R.
Make sure you have virtual memory turned off, turn off the zip, unplug,
check all connections, connect to the computer only not the keyboard and
not a hub. Turn off toast fire and especially Toast CD recorder
extensions, in fact I moved them out of the system folder altogether. If I
can think of anything else later on I will let you know. I am a bit
frustrated now as when I switch between OS X and 9.1 VM gets turned back on
and we end up with a coaster from time to time.
>Dear List,
>Several weeks ago I asked your help when I set up a factory

>get Fuji CD-R media. The spindle of Imation CD-R media is useless
>(that's what I get for asking Compusa employees for a

>happy, because they want to burn tunes (I want to archive data).
>HOWEVER, Toast 4.1.3 insists "No CD recorder. Please check cables and

>memory) iMac's USB port (iTunes works fine off my USB port hub),
>Apple System Profiler recognizes the burner, etc.
>Somebody mentioned an iTunes/Toast conflict, but disabling iTunes
>extensions doesn't help.
>Is this a hardware problem (I bought it refurb) or a software problem
>(if the latter, where is it documented). Does anyone know if Toast 5

>Thanks in advance,
