Iso image not wanting to mount

is anyone else having problems getting a iso image to mount and burn in disc utility. I am trying to burn a linux distro. It kicks back with a error saying unable to mount

I'd try mounting a different ISO file. A file can get damaged during the download, or even during it's creation. If you have a problem with more than one file, then maybe you have a system or user problem that can be addressed.
Maybe if you provide a link to the distro someone will download it and check the file and see if it burns. Every file is different.

Bluray ISO image not readable

Hi all,
If I ask your help today it's because I face a very strange problem with my Bluray ISO disks generated with Adobe Encore CS5.
I explain the problem :
I have generated my personal video (720x1280) with Adobe Premiere Pro CS5
I have created the menu of my bluray with Adobe Encore CS5
Then, I've generated the ISO with Adobe Encore CS5.
The ISO image makes 5,80Go
The problem is, when I mount the ISO image of the Bluray disk with Daemon Tool Lite v4.41.3.0173, the disk can't be read:
With Windows Media Player: Windows Media Player can not play the DVD. Due to its special design, it is not supported by the reader.
With VLC v1.1.11: Your media entrance can be opened: VLC can not open 'dvd: / / H: \. "Check messages for more details.
With Cyberlink PowerDVD9: The disc format in the H: drive is not supported
With Cyberlink PowerDVD11: The disc format in the H: drive is not supported
With TotalMedia theater 5: This disc can not be read
I'm using Windows Seven 64 bits
However, if I burn the bluray ISO image on a real bluray disc, I can read the disc on My PC and my PS3 with:
PowerDVD9
TotalMedia theater 5
and on my PlayStation3
The bluray disc burned can't be read with VLC nor Windows Media Payer nor PowerDVD11
Please, can you help me to understand this problem ?
This are my personal life videos, so I would like to solve this problem in order to save these precious moments.

Hi all,
thanks for your answers.
@John T Smith:
What's the solution ?
With http://forums.adobe.com/thread/890691?tstart=0
I haven't tried to generate a folder with Encore but only ISO files.
I will try this solution.
But if I burn the ISO image (5,80Go) with LG Burning Tool, the image is readable on my PC and PS3.
I have tried to make an ISO file from the BD-RE burned, but the new ISO file makes 23Go I don't know why...
With http://forums.adobe.com/thread/890691?tstart=0
My Bluray disc generated makes 5,80Go, so it's not a problem with a too big project.
@Ann Bens:
I've tried with Virtual Clone Drive
Now, I can read the ISO image with Cyberlink PowerDVD9 and TotalMedia theater 5.
The ISO file doesn't work with VLC, PowerDVD11, nor Windows Media Player.
It's better with Virtual Clone Drive but it's not perfect.
I would like to understand, is it a problem concerning the image generated by Encore CS5, or a problem with the soft used to mount the ISO images ?
I save all my personal videos on ISO files, so I would like to understand concretly what the problem is, to be abble to read the ISO in the future...
Thanks for helping me

ISO Image not booting - GRUB cannot find cdrom

I am using the archlinux-2008.06-core ISO image in my Acer Travelmate 2350.
Instead of showing the menu GRUB drops me to the shell. It seems it cannot load the menu.lst due to not finding the cdrom.
I found a similar bug filed under: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/6292
It was closed by using isolinux instead of grub.
Is this a known problem?

Arch is rolling release. Once you

you're up to date. It doesn't matter what ISO you use. Having said that, you will want to use 2008.03 or newer. Pacman changed considerably between 2007.08 and 2008.03.
Yes, I know that it is a rolling release. Still, there are some differences in the installations between the ISOs. The one significant difference that I know of is the usage of UUIDs in Overlord. I will try the 2008.3 and just stab fstab to use UUIDs myself. But what I'd like to know is if there are any other new things in Overlord that I should be prepared to repair in the old release.

Bootable ISO images not visible in PCD when doing Migration Task

We are looking to move from CUCM 8.6 to CUCM 10.0 using Prime Collaboration Deployment. We have the full 10.0 media for CUCM and IMP. We created an ISO image of each and uploaded them to the /fresh_install directory on the PCD server. When creating a migration task in PCD, when we get to the point to select an image and click Browse, nothing is there. We also tried downloading the bootable 10.5 media from PUT. After uploading that media, this was visible, but the 10.0 image we made from the original CD was not.
It appears PCD is doing some sort of validation check against the ISO. What can we do to ensure we create a valid image from the Disc so PCD can see it?

Hi, Jack.
I have the same question, could you provide more details? Thanks!
Say, in the log I found this: The given directory was located and searched but no valid options or upgrades were available. Note, the system cannot be downgraded so option and upgrade files for previous releases were ignored.
But this does not clarify the question.

Burn ISO image not boot

Does any one have this experience? I tried to download PowerPC version Linux and FreeBSD ISO image to burn a CD or DVD disc in my MacBook Pro, using Disk Utility. But the disc cannot boot on my old iBook. I tried many disc including DVD-R, CD-R and CD-RW. All are not work. After that, I tried to use Toast to do it. That's OK. I am sure that the download ISO is correct with checksum. But I am not sure it is problem of MacBook Pro or Mac OS X 10.4.5. Any experience.
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.5)

I have had a similar problem: burned iso images refuse to boot on my old iMac 333MHz machine. Occasionally I have gotten lucky, and my burned disc boots. Usually, it spins up several times and then the computer gives up and boots to the default system.
The problem, I believe, is that my system was put out before cd writers were common on apple hardware and so it doesn't recognise burned discs unless I follow very strict ISO9660 rules: I think Toast is better about following these rules.

Burnt ISO image not recognised by Windows Vista

Can somebody please help me with my ISO problem.
I have some windows software stored as an ISO file. I've burnt the file to a DVD using Magic ISO and according to magic ISO the burn completed fine. If I then view the contents of the DVD using OS X then it looks as I'd expect, as a DVD containing windows software including the autorun file.
However whenever I boot up my virtual Windows Vista maching via Parallels desktop and then insert the disk, Vista informs me that the disk is blank and if I view the contents of the DVD using windows explorer then again the disk is Blank.
I've tried burning the ISO image 3 times, twice with Magic ISO and once with some free ISO shareware (I forget the name) each time the burn is successful and OS X recognises it but Windows thinks the DVD is blank. I've also tried the disk on a friends PC running XP and the disk appears blank there also.
This problem is driving me crazy, any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Good morning,
What type of disc are you trying to burn, data or movie?
If you already have an ISO you might consider using Disk Utility to make your DVD, it has rarely failed me! You can do this by going to Macintosh HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility, drag and drop the ISO onto a blank area of the left hand panel and then select the image and 'Burn' from the top left icon.
Hope this helps! 

Fixed background image not wanted

Hi all,
I am having a problem that has me stumped. I have a background image applied to a div and even though I haven't specified anywhere in the css for this image to be fixed position, it will not scroll with the rest of the text. I have tried to apply background-attachment css of scroll etc, but nothing is changing.
Here is the page in question - http://www.sheffieldstudent.co.uk/test/studentstrology_may2011.html
CSS is here: http://www.sheffieldstudent.co.uk/test/_css/student.css
Any ideas? Thanks.
PS: Sorry for the slow DL speed but I haven't compressed the images yet.

As for the text resize layout problem, I see what you mean. I don't know any other ways of accomplishing the same design without using background images for the navigation. Would there be a better way?
Sure - each text block would need to be in its own container, each with its own background image. That way, when the block expands vertically, the text doesn't overlap other background images. Your background images would have to be designed to allow this vertical expansion, however, which could be tricky or impossible depending on the complexity of the image.

Usb iso image not read

i successfully installed boot camp on my apple macbook air the setup initiated but the system was unable to futher install as it could not recognize the hard drive format i restarted the mac now it shows the error no portable device please insert boot disc but when i insert the disc (the usb drive) and press any key it does not respond

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
From what you say, you may have formatted the wrong partition during setup, so you may have lost OS X.
To check whether you have any operating system installed on your Mac, first turn it off. Then, turn it on and hold the Option (Alt) key until your Mac shows all bootable volumes. Tell me the names of the options you see.

Mounting iso image

how do I mount an iso image?
I tried :
mount -o loop -t iso9660 ~/Desktop/adobe.iso /mnt
but it gives an error like " No such file or directory" .
I also tried burning the image to CD and inserted it doesn't recognize it.

Kate--
If you want to do it from Terminal, look at hdid:
<pre class="command">hdid image.iso</pre>
I tried it on an ISO I made to burn a DVD-Audio disc and it mounted. It mounts at /Volumes, if that's okay.
And, taking Malcom's advice, if I double-click it, the image mounts on my Desktop...

How about putting out ISO images for various downloads

I posted this suggestion before, a year ago, I think. no change. so here it goes again:
It'd be much better to put out ISO images instead of.cpio.gz or .tar.gz file, as
many people I know had to extract the content from the archive, then generate cd images.
There are great free ('mkisofs') and commercial tools to generate iso images.
One may argue that it'd be hard for people don't have cd-rom/cd-rw. Under linux, this is not an issue. iso image can easily be mounted on a loop device and read from.

Hi Nick, I do see information on creating a slideshow with Quicktime at: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials/slideshow.html
however it appears Quicktime X removed that capability. There is no 'open image sequence' option from the File menu in Quicktime X.
If I do end up sticking with Final Cut - would you recommend any codec and/or dimension size that would result in the best quality or the most crisp image? I also need a few fade in's and out's on various parts - I don't believe I would have the control without Final Cut.
Would resizing the image files in Photoshop to 1920 pixels by 1280 before importing them into Final Cut result in crisper images? Thanks.

ISO Image Problem

I purchased a legit copy of XP SP2 from my university and it came as a downloaded ISO image file. I then burned the contents of this file to a cd in hopes to use bootcamp, but when i get to the point where it wants me to put in the install cd, it does not recognize my windows cd. i'm not sure what to do? anoyone else having this problem?

Using that process won't burn the ISO image correctly, all you are doing is making a copy of the ISO image, not actually burning the image itself.
Try using Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility
You should be able to get Disk Utility to correctly burn the image.
Otherwise you are going to need to get some disk burning software (or ask a friend to burn the image for you).

Error trying to mount the DVD to a network based ISO image in Windows 2008 Hyper-V RC0

Greetings,
When I try to configre the guest OS settings to mount the CD/DVD drive to an ISO image I have setting on a file share, I consistently get an error. The only time I have been able to mount an ISO since upgrading to RC0 (I don't remember if I tested this in the BETA) is when the ISO is locally on the Windows 2008 Hyper-V server.
To be specific, I get the following error:
Virtual Machine Connection (title of the window)
Inserting the disk failed.
Failed to add device 'Microsoft Virtual CD/DVD disk'.
User account does not have sufficient privelage to open attachment '\\remoteserver\share\ISONAME.ISO'.
Error: 'General access denied error'
'NEWGUESTOSNAME' failed to add device 'Microsoft Virtual CD/DVD Disk'. (VMID 26C8B66F-5D3F-47F9-9D80-474D0F778522)
'NEWGUESTOSNAME': User Account does not have sufficient privelage to open attachement '\\remoteserver\share\ISONAME.ISO'.
Error: 'General access denied error' (0x80070005). (VMID 26C8B66F-5D3F-47F9-9D80-474D0F778522)
I am not sure what credentials it is using. It looks almost like it is using the new computer name as credentials or something like that. The account I am logged in as at the time is a Domain Admin and has access to every server and every share. I can browse to the ISO just fine through the Hyper-V Insert Disk function, it just won't take.
I have checked the Hyper-V server settings and the Guest OS settings and can't find where to specifcy what account to use to connect to remote ISOs. Anyone have any clue on what I am doing wrong?

Thanks for the various replies.
Understood it is an issue with the Hyper-V server computer account getting the files, and not the actual guest OS. At this point I think I will just copy some ISO's to the server. I did note the last time I used a "local" ISO that I had to manually type out the local path to the files on the server, as when I tried to browse to the local server drives through the console I got an error about connecting to the local server (which wasn't really local) through the network drives. I don't remember the exact error, but I know I couldn't get it to point to the ISO on the D:\ drive through the browse feature, but rather I just typed out the path and it was fine. That too seems like a bit of a buy/annoyance as I should be able to browse files local to the Hyper-V server, and not have to type out the path.
I guess I would ask MSFT to consider changing the behavior of the console just a little before RTM if it is being run remotely against the Hyper-V server, versus locally on it, if the permissions being used to get to the remote files are going to be different depending. I.E. It is not intuitive that the same exact action in the same exact console would behave any differently when the console is run on the Hyper-V server versus remotely against the Hyper-V server. I.E. Add in a pop-up when remotely connected to the Hyper-V server to let the user know that some permissions may not proxy through (or whatever verbiage you want to use).
This will pop-up more and more as people like me try to deploy Hyper-V on Core servers, and they used Hyper-V on a normal Windows 2008 server previously.
Thanks!

Iso image playing in windows, but not in mac

torrent site for the iso image is:
http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/119383481/ccie?tab=summary#.UGby8mg1FFI
it's a cisco network concept tutorial, it is playing on a windows laptop on windows xp, vista or 7.
I understand that wmv player cannot be played in mac osx, there is a suggestion to run either wine or flip4mac
wine, i am so sorry to be a pain but I get keep getting error messages during installation and it is not successful.
flip4mac I was able to install but I can't seem to make the iso work,
it mounts perfectly displaying 3 files:
autorun.inf
files
index.hta
clicking index.hta will display the website with all the lessons on the left side, click on it and it will play the video on the website, it works on windows but I can't seem to make it work in Safari.
I tried Opera, the website seems to appear but not all of the words, when I click for the lessons on the left side, it only opens an opera browser on a black blank browser.
Please help since I have just shifted to Mac this month, I tried Mac because I believe I can run GNS3 better in it.
Pardon for my MAC ignorance,
from your MAC noob.

It reformatted itself? I've never heard of that before.
Like I said earlier, if the iPod is Windows formatted it should work on a Mac because Macs are capable of handling FAT32 files. If it's Mac formatted it won't work on Windows without the aid of 3rd party add on software.
I'm still puzzled as to whether or not you need to sync the iPod to iTunes on both Mac and Windows computers.
Have you seen these?
iPod doesn't appear in iTunes or on the Mac desktop.
iPod does not appear in iPod Updater or iTunes in Mac OS X.
iPod appears on the Mac OS X desktop but not in iTunes.

Mount iso image

Hi,
I wonder how to mount iso image on arch. mount -o loop image.iso /mnt/loop works perfect on slack, but not on arch. i tried mount -o loop=image.iso /mnt/loop, but it asks /mnt/loop to be on fstab. I entered /dev/loop/0 /mnt/loop iso9660 ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0 line on fstab, but there error "ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: Inappropriate ioctl for device".

# mount -o loop MapleSoft Maple 9.01.iso /mnt/loop
mount: Not a directory
# mount -o loop=MapleSoft Maple 9.01.iso /mnt/loop
mount: can't find /mnt/loop in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
After adding "/dev/loop/0 /mnt/loop iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0" to fstab:
# mount -o loop=MapleSoft Maple 9.01.iso /mnt/loop
ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: Inappropriate ioctl for device
It is very strange because mount -o loop MapleSoft Maple 9.01.iso /mnt/loop always worked perfect on other distros...
