How to burn an .iso file

I am sure there is some way in disk utlility or something, but how do I burn an .iso file? Also does it matter if it is a windows program .iso?
Thank you

You can try to open it in Disk Utility. Just go Images>Open>browse to the .iso and it should mount the volume. Choose the volume and go to Images>Burn and follow directions.
You may encounter problems if the volume created on Windows is not compatibly formatted, but that's unlikely.
Note I'm running 10.3.9 so DU may have changed menu structures/options.
Lastly, this is faster and easier with Toast.

How to mount an .iso file to the cdrom

Hi :
could you give the instruction how to mount an iso file to be acting as the CD-Rom?
Thanks a lot

sorry, i didn't get your point.
I tried with the following commands:
mkdir -p /mnt/disk
mount xxxx.iso /mnt/disk
but i got some error messages. i guess i should put the "-F FSType" parameter after keyword mount, but what parameter should I use?
Thanks

How best to burn avi movie file to a DVD?

I am the owner of a new 20" iMac and would like to burn an avi movie file to a DVD. I am informed by an Apple tech rep that the avi file has to be converted to a DV or MPEG-4 file before the iDVD program can burn it to a DVD. To make the conversion a Roxio program called Popcorn has been suggested, but the cost is $50.
I will appreciate any advice as to alternative lower cost programs that will accomplish the conversion.
I am also open to any other approaches that will enable me to burn the avi file to a DVD. (Before switching from a Windows computer to the iMac I used to burn avi movie files to DVDs with no sweat via NeroVision Express which was part of the Nero 6 software package that was supplied with an external DVD burner).

I’m not conversant with the technical aspects of the information on the other two websites to which you refer. I really can’t tell whether these programs would meet the demands of this particular situation. I do not want to download programs, even if they are freeware, if I don’t know what I am getting. This movie stuff is certainly a much more complex issue to deal with than mp3 song files!
I am too new to the world of Mac to know whether QuickTime Pro would be of advantage. I’ll have to look into it.
I think QT Pro is like another editing app in and of itself and much more. It is very much worth every cent that apple is asking for this software. In fact, in some situations it's actually vital in the creation of several projects.
I'm guessing you too will find this out on your own when it comes to combining two QT movies together as one project or triming and existing QT movie rather than reworking both separate projects from scratch.
Bottom line is that it's significant time saver. And for me time = $$$. (Hence this QT software is worth every cent of $29).
Btw... and nobody pays me to say this about apple software. I'm just stating what works best for me.
Speaking of which .... I also happen to be my own beta tester.
I think you're going to have to get used to the idea of testing your own software / plugins that will work best for you and in your own situation. You might want to consider investing in an ext. HD if you don't already own one.
The way I approach this is to clone my exisiting HD using CCC and then running the latest apple update /software on the cloned HD rather than attempting to alter my existing HD (which to me is essentially my bread and butter).
Hope this helps.

How to Burn an ISO to a DVD or USB?

Series: How to Re-Install Windows when you don't have the Recovery Discs
Intro: What is an ISO? Why is it used?
Step 1 - Get the ISO - ISO Download Links
Step 2 - Burn the ISO to a DVD or USB
Step 3 - What to do with the ISO DVD/USB? Change the Boot Order
Step 4 - What to do After Windows is Installed? How to Get HP Drivers?
Step 2 - Burn the ISO to a DVD or USB
I've Got the ISO, Now What?
DVD Option
Once you've got a Windows ISO, you have to put it on some type of media, like a DVD or USB flash drive. Burning the ISO to a disc is made easy with ImgBurn's 'Write image file to disc' - Option B below.
Vista users: If you used the Vista download link in Step 1 above, you've got 3 different files that must be combined. You'll have to use Option A first to create an Image file from those 3 files and then use Option B to burn that ISO to a DVD (or see the USB Option below)
USB Option
It wouldn't be necessary to put the ISO on a USB if you have a DVD drive and it is working. Newer, slimmer laptops sometimes don't come with DVD drives anymore, so they must use the USB option.
For putting the ISO on a USB flash drive, another program is required to make the USB drive able to be seen and booted to by the BIOS. "To be seen and booted to by the BIOS", means making the USB "bootable".
Rufus is a good program that creates bootable USB drives. Again, there are other programs out there that do this same thing too.
See Step 3 - What to do with the ISO DVD/USB? Change the Boot Order
If you have any questions, create a new post (How to Create a New Post - Video), copy and paste it's link into a private message to me, and I will respond on your thread

You can try to open it in Disk Utility. Just go Images>Open>browse to the .iso and it should mount the volume. Choose the volume and go to Images>Burn and follow directions.
You may encounter problems if the volume created on Windows is not compatibly formatted, but that's unlikely.

But then when I mount the cdrom back, instead of the contents of the ISO image, I find the "isofile.iso" file!!
I tried installing brasero and using it instead, but the same thing happened, what could the problem be?

You should not be using the "-dao" switch and get rid of the burnfree thing as that is now deprecated and will be used anyways if your drive supports it, so:
sudo cdrecord -v dev=/dev/cdrom isofile.iso

How to burn a .exe file to a cd

Hello. I had a problem burning a .exe file to a cd and looked over te whole internet to find out how to do it but failed.
1) I had a 700mb cd and when atempted to burn a 50mb folder, an error message said that the folder didn't fit in the cd
2) I tried to copy the file over Disk utility and nothing
Please can anyone help me?
My mac is a Mid 2012, 13'' MacBook Pro

I've been instructed to download an .exe file of Windows XP Service Pack 3 in order to update a corrupted and restored Windows XP in Parallels on Bootcamp.
I downloaded to my MacBook and tried putting the .exe file in a folder and burning it to CD but received this message
"The disc could not be verified and might be unreliable. Try again using a new blank disc. (Error code 0x80020063)"
Is there a way to burn just the .exe file alone directly from its location in my Downloads file to the CD?

How to burn to ISO image in Premiere Elements 12.1 under Windows 8.1 64bit?

I really struggle - is there no way to burn from PE12.1 to ISO image (under Win 8.1)?

Motajko
There is no way to take your Timeline content to an ISO Image in Premiere Elements 12/12.1 on Windows 8.1 64 bit with just Premiere Elements 12/12.1 by itself.
Premiere Elements 13 is the first to offer a Burn To: option of ISO Image for DVD, AVCHD, and Blu-ray. Which one of those choices are you seeking (or all of them)?
If you cannot make due with the Burn To: Folder for DVD and AVCHD, then you can get your ISO Image from 12/12.1 in the following round about way....
Let us do AVCHD ISO Image as the example...
1. Burn your Premiere Elements 12/12.1 Timeline using Publish+Share/Disc/AVCHD, Burn To: = Folder (4.7 GB).
2. Take the BDMV Folder from the saved folder into the free ImgBurn program and export is as a ISO file.using the category named
Create Image File from Files/Folder.
3. When you need the disc product, you can take that ISO file to disc in ImgBurn using the category named Write Image File To Disc.
For more information on ISO Image and Premiere Elements, please review the following link's content
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE12: Disc Image/Phantom Burner & PE
After you review and consider the above, we can discuss the matter further if needed.
Thank you.

Downloading and installing the free ImgBurn needs caution since it is known to travel with unwanted carry alongs.

How can i implement ISO file structure on the JC?

I am a student who come from Taiwan.
My english is not very well and i an very sorry for that.
I will do my best to say what's the question mean and how can you help me .
My JC project need to use ISO file structure on the JC.
But there are no paper use chinese language about implement ISO file structure on the JC in Taiwan.
So i don't know how to implement ISO file structure on the JC.
Can anyone tell me where can i get paper and source code about implement ISO file structure on the JC？
Thanks for you view this question.
Erebus.

Nihao,
There is no documentation about this because ISO FileStructure is not supported in current JC specs. You can explore the JavaPurse project providet with the JC development kit form SUN and find there cyclic file implementation. All other implementations should be then programmed in similar way.
(And do not worry about your english, it is good enough. Better than my chineese ... couldn't even order a cab last year I was in Taipei .... )

Can't see .iso file on a DVD Burned using a windows pc.

A friend burned me a dvd using windows. When I open it on my mac I can't see anything. When I use VMware and windoze 98 I see a .iso file. Is there any way I can make my Tiger see this file. I can copy the file from VMware to my desktop and watch the movie via dvd player but I am low on drive space and don't want to leave this image on there as it is 4.33GB. I would love to be able to just pop in the dvd. watch it then eject it. Any help would be great.

Sorry, this is not a "Vista in a nutshell" or "Windows for beginners" forum, it's about "Windows compatibility (of Mac hardware and/or with Mac OS X)". Please seek out for help on Windows forums or ask a friend with more knowledge of Windows Vista.

How to import an iso file

Hi all,
I'm playing with Oracle VM 2.2
Server pool is only one node
I want to install Linux on a new VM.
In order to install it I have to first import the iso image, right?
I've already uplodaded the iso file to the VM server at /OVS/iso_pool/rhel-server-5.5-i386-dvd.iso
I do the following: logged in as admin, browse to
Resources, ISO Files, Select from Server Pool (Discover and register).
The problem now is I cannot choose my server pool, the dropdown does not show it. Why? (Actually it doesn't show anything)
I have a server pool with one node.
If I want to import a Virtual Machine Images, I can choose my server pool from the dropdown, but it doesn't appear for iso images....any reason why?
Thanks a lot.

How to burn .flv movie files to a viewable dvd

i have an older macbook (2ghz intel duo core 2 duo, 2 gb 667 mhz ddr2 sdram). i would like to burn some .flv movie files to a dvd which can be viewed on an ordinary dvd player. (i am unfamiliar with the computer's movie making software, unfortunately) is there a simple, user friendly method to do this? any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Have you tried just dragging them into iDVD? Don't see any reason why that shouldn't work. Not saying you'll get the greatest quality.
