PC .mp3 files to Mac - help needed

Posted:
in Genius Bar edited January 2014
I downloaded a bunch of .mp3 files from Audio Galaxy on my PC at work and burned them to an audio CD. When I brought the CD home and loaded it into my iMac, it says that it is unreadable - something about the file structure. So how do I get my iMac to read the CD? Thanks.

    I'm not positive, but I think that all you have to do is to burn the CD as an ISO9200 format. I'm not sure that is the correct number, but it is ISOsoemthing. IIRC, that is the format that PCs and Macs can both read.

    That's weird, I've never had problems with that before.

    9200? I think it's 9660.

    Something like that. All I know for sure is that it's a number bigger than EmAn's post count. Well, until next month, at least

    Use Nero on PCs. Roxio/Adaptec is evil.

    I agree. I've used Nero for years now, and love it. It just gets better every release, and EZ CD Creator is the exact oppisite.



    On the flip side, I love Roxio's Toast Titanium for Mac. Strange. I guess they need to stick to Mac. =)
