iMac DV & Formac 16x Firewire Burner Problem
hi folks I got a serious problem:
I own an iMac DV 400 and an iBook 600 DVD/ CDRW and I´m running Mac OS X 10.1.2 on both machines. I also got an Formac 16x FW Burner but this nasty piece of sh** only works on the iBook! On the same settings and the same programm (Toast 5.1P2) my iMac isn´t able to boot CD of any type. Original Apple Software CDs, Music CD, Burned CDs none of them are mounted on the iMac though it works more than fine on the iBook with the same FW cable, powersource always on, I Can´t understand that. I thank you for every answer...
and having the same X on it means having the same FW drivers? ah and my iMac got it´s latest Apple Firmware patch!

I had quite a problem w/the same cd-rw drive that you have on my iMac DV 400. Turned out I had a lemon, but the painful part was that I bought the drive the beginning of August and didn't get it replaced till the middle of December. They were absurdly slow in responding to my complaints. That doesn't really help you with your problem, but I felt the need to chime in w/my current displeasure over formac

I got it yesterday and it's been working fine in OS X.
This recorder is standard only with PC software, but after installing Toast it works fine under MacOS X.
