imac

[Yer_Maw]

im in uni on an imac and i was wondering does this thing have a cd writer cos i want some stuff off the ftp? anyone help? i can load up a prog called disc burner but i just keeps throwing my blank cd out when i put it in? its one of the ones where the monitor is built in to the computer bit.

help appreciated!

wot sort of iMac is it... new one with flat screen - or old one with candy coloured 60s TV box?

Assuming it isn't Mac OS X... If you hit the Apple icon in the top left hand corner and go to 'System Profiler' it should give you a window with the complete run down of the computer's hardware and software...

Haven't you heard? imac is now called veet!

it depends on what model you got. if you're using os9, go into the apple menu and pull down to "apple system profiler" in the profiler, click on the "devices and volumes" tab. a couple lines you should see some lines that say Internal ATA (followed by a number). your cd drive should be listed here and it will either say cd-rom, cd-rw, cd-rw/dvd or something like that. if you're in osX, go the apple menu and pull down to "about this computer" and click on the "more info" button. that should bring you into the system profiler screen and you do the same thing you would do in the os9 version (devices and volumes tab, etc..)

I think all Imac's have cd writers as standard.
