A Mac should, Apple supply DVD-R drives and call them "Superdrive".

Is the Mac try to read a DVD-R one with at least a DVD-ROM drive?

What OS is the Mac running? In 9.22 and below the some Extensions may be
missing.

What's on the DVD? And what authoring program was used on PC?

Email me on/off list for any more help on the above :) Also to note to Mac
user's is DVDPlusTool for Mac OS X <http://www.plak.net/dvdplustool/>


James.

PS. All Mac users without "Superdrive's" can add one themselves by buying a
internal Pioneer DVD DVR-105 drive, getting full use of iDVD etc. Best price
seems to be �160 from <http://www.ebuyer.com/>
