I think you need to be in disk utility. The toolbar, I believe, is hidden, so you might have to reveal it. Then, there is a burn button in the toolbar. As long as you have the disk image selected from the drive list and a blank disk in the optical drive, you should be good to go. Take Ca

Yeh, you know, when I looked for burn, I couldn't find the tool bar on my finder. It's not something I use all that often so may have unchecked it or something. There's burn to disk in the file menu or the context menu, but without actually burning a disk, I couldn't be sure they wouldn't just

Can't you select the disk image in Disk Utility from the list, put a blank disk in the optical drive and then with the image selected, choose, Burn, from the toolbar? I haven't done this in a while, but I think that's how I did it in the past. Take Care John Panarese jpanar...@gmail.com

Looks like to burn a DMG file to a disk you have to drag and drop the source and destination in the disk utilities menu and then restore. Is there a better way to do this with keystroke commands? Thanks. Bill BILL HOLTON Email: b...@bholto

Re: DMG files

Hi Nancy, I think that you may be confusing the dmg file with what the dmg file creates upon opening. A dmg is a Disk image usually used for installers and such. To explain in more detail, follow this example: 1. Disk Image named Installer.dmg was downloaded. 2. Open this dmg (Disk Image fil

Hi Nancy, DMG files are a fairly standard way of distributing application bundles on the Mac. The extension initials stand for "disk image files", and they behave the like volumes (disks, USB memory keys, etc.) that are mounted on your device. This method of distribution (as

cmd shift c gets you to the computer icon which lists all of your drives and dmg files that are mounted. It is a faster way to eject a drive as you just hit cmd e after selecting the dmg to eject. Take care. Sarah Alawami MSN: marri...@gmail.com aim: marri...@gmail.com: website: http
