What CD brands will work with my iMac?

I've read everyone's nightmares here, related to the Superdrive, which I also have, and I share some of the same problems.
What I'd like to know now is what is the best brand and speed of blank CD's to use to burn music to? I've been using Memorex CD-RW's but after reading about some of the potential problems, I'd like to switch to a CD-R format.
Any suggestions or advice?

For a lot of people, it is not neccessary. I used to ask myself that question until I came across a need for things that iLife and the Finder would not do.
Toast is a great program with a lot of features that just are not standard on a Mac.
You can make music DVDs. You can span a HD backup over multiple disks. You can make hybrid PC/Mac disks. It has DVD compression tools to fit a 8.5GB dual-layer DVD onto a single layer 4.7GB DVD.It suppoprts OGG and FLAC audio formats. You can turn your iMovie and iDVD projects into DivX disks.
It also has lots of nice tools to clean up audio that is imported from a noisy source - like vinyl.
It is all in all a very useful program, but not unless you need any of those features of course.

  • What racing wheels will work with my iMac for F1:2013?

    I'm trying to find a racing wheel that will work with my 1-year new iMac that doesn't cost >$200 that I can use with F1:2013.
    I have an old USB Xtreme Racingwheel for PS3 & PC. The steering part works but none of the buttons or pedals work or will re-map inside the game.
    I've looked at the RacingSimWay S1 racing wheel, but like everything else I find, it only lists Windows requirements.
    Suggestions?

    Hello,
    Have you tried installing an emulator on your mac, configure your xtreme racing wheel and then running the game with it. Worked for me in a flight simulator for a joystick but in principle should work with the wheels too, maybe 'Joystick Mapper'?
    Hope it helps

  • What remote controls will work with the iMac 27inch.

    Okay I hung the new iMac on the wall in my kitchen. Used the apple adapter I have a little apple remote control that works the dvd player fine. Of course the wireless keyboard and the wireless mouse work fine. I have an elgato tuner because this iMac is my dvr/tv does anyone have a remote that will work the iMac as a dvd and work the elgato hybrid tuner. Just trying to make this simple. Thanks

    iTunes itself, that is it's built-in remote speaker function, will work only with an Airport Express. There may be other wireless speakers that have their own drivers or transmitter; someone else here may be able to make a recommendation.

  • I have a mid 2007 iMac and the internal superdrive audio cd won't play, the DVD works. Can I purchase an external cd drive that will work with my iMac?

    I have a mid 2007 iMac (Model A1224 iMac 7,1) and the internal superdrive audio cd won't play, the DVD works. Can I purchase an external cd drive that will work with my iMac?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Any external optical drive will work with your Mac. If you want an Apple USB SuperDrive, see > http://www.tuaw.com/2012/04/02/use-the-macbook-air-superdrive-with-any-almost-ma c/
    The best option is to take the Mac to an Apple Store and get the Mac's SuperDrive repaired

  • What external modem will work with Satellite L500-1XL running Windows 7

    Hi,
    When in Spain I need to use dial up to the internet via Telefonica.
    I am assuming the L500-1XL does not have an internal modem?
    What external modem will work with the L500-1XL running Windows 7 ?
    Many thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi
    Youre right Satellite L500 doesnt have an internal modem so you need an external one.
    I think you can buy every modem that is at least compatible with Vista. Alternative ask your authorized service provider or favorite computer dealer
    Friend of me has good experience with 56K modem from USRobotics like this one:

  • What non-Apple keyboards will work with the iMac?

    We just got an iMac and it came with a wired mouse and a wired keyboard that we want to replace. What wireless keyboards will work that are NOT the Apple brand? Thank you.

    You can use any USB wired keyboard with a Mac.
    There are Windows keyboards (which will work, but have
    odd 'other' key-faces.) And there are several third-party Mac
    compatible keyboards with proper keys laid out for Macs.
    Any reputable dealer often has these; and online, even more.
    Doesn't the Apple Store page show a few non-Apple k/bds?
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Does anyone know if any usb keyboards will work with a imac g3

    Do all usb keyboards and mice work with the imac g3

    Jimmer,
    Just a note on PC keyboard function keys.  The windows function keys work but you will get frustrated by the location of the command key.  The 'undo' and 'cut' and 'copy' and 'paste are z x c and v but the command key on a PC keyboard is where the 'control' key is on a mac.  You will be giving the wrong command if you use the mac key location and the PC location is a stretch for your thumb to reach.  There is no harm done by plugging in another brand of USB device.
    Jim~

  • What wireless printer will work with ipad2?

    I am looking for a wireless printer that will work with ipad2?

    Those that will work without any additional apps (the printer and iPad juset need to be on the same wifi network) are listed on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356 - i.e. they are AirPrint enabled
    Some printer manufacturers also have their own apps in the store which add support to more models, and there are also third-party printer apps in the store (but an AirPrint enabled printer would probably be better as you don't need additional apps for them).

  • What bluetooth speaker will work with the new IMAC 27"?

    Is Bose better than JamBox? Can someone recommend one? Is the speaker built into the new IMAC 27" good enough without external speaker?

    I would expect the Yosemite list to be about the same as what is well-supported today.
    This guy (Mac Gizmo guy) has done some research and lists on his site cameras that work with Macs AND are available on amazon.com.
    I believe his recommendations are accurate, BUT -- Full Disclosure: gets some payments from amazon for his service.

  • Adobe Please tell what email program will work with my Adobe XI Pro

    Office 360 is the worst upgrade or version and I do not want to invest any more time using crappy email I am using Windows 8.1. OK ... Adobe please tell me what high technology email that works with your product. In steady of guessing you must be using something I can use.  I am a Professional Engineer here in Michigan developing high tech products. I save email, but I would like to save the structure of my email folders into PDF folders, so I can scan through the emails. I would even printed all 1500 emails if required, but any way I do it using the Office 360's Outlook it errors out to a Help Lync. Blows up.  I will write the program, if there is a script language to interface with your product and Microsoft yields information on their OUTLOOK program.
    Please tell me what I need to do?

    Hi HuzzCo-USA,
    You need to update Acrobat 11 to the latest patch to be able to work with Office 365.
    The base version 11.0 is not compatible. From 11.0.1 onwards the compatibility has been added.

  • What wireless speakers will work with the "remote speaker" feature?
