Writing to a DVD-RAM

Once the DVD-RAM has been formatted:

1.Open the PowerFile Desktop icon.

2.Drag the file(s) onto the disc’s icon or into its window.

The client or administrator must have the correct Permissions to modify the disc prior to any write operation. (Note: See Apple’s instructions for setting Mac OS X Permissions.)

When you are finished writing to the DVD-RAM, you may drag the PowerFile Desktop icon to the Trash in order to unmount the disc.

Renaming Media Within the PowerFile Desktop Icon

Renaming Media Within PowerFile Desktop Icon

The title by which a disc is identified within the PowerFile desktop icon may be altered. This is useful when working with multiple discs of the same name or discs with non-descriptive names.

1.Open the PowerFile Desktop Icon.

2.Edit the desired disc title.

Note that this does not change the name of the physical disc, only the title shown within the PowerFile Desktop Icon for the disc. Custom names within the PowerFile Desktop Icon will be lost when a disc is removed and then re-inserted into a changer, or when a disc is mounted for Disc Maintenance. (See the “Disc Maintenance” section for instructions on renaming a physical DVD-RAM disc.)

Disc Maintenance

This feature allows custom disc formatting (including multiple partitions and non-HFS+ file system) and provides a mechanism to run Disk Utility’s “First Aid” function on a disc.

Disc Maintenance may also be used to physically rename a piece of DVD-RAM media.
