3 In the New Disc dialog box, type a name for your disc in the Title field, and then click OK.

pane.
By default, ACDSee identifies Photo Discs by their serial numbers. This is the most reliable setting to
use when working with Photo Discs, particularly if you are importing or converting Photo Discs from
previous versions of ACDSee.
However, if you are working with, or planning to work with, multi-session discs, the serial number may
be regenerated or changed each time you change the contents of a disc. Therefore, the volume label
is the required method of identification for multi-session Photo Discs.
Rebinding Photo Discs
Depending on the method used to identify Photo Discs, ACDSee may encounter a Photo Disc that it
does not recognize. This is most common when you are using the serial number method to identify
Photo Discs and you insert a multi-session disc. ACDSee may not recognize the disc, as serial numbers
are likely to change when updating a multi-session disc.
You can use the Rebind option to update the identification information, and associate the correct
database information with your disc.
To rebind a Photo Disc to its ACDSee database information:
1 In the Rebind Photo Disc dialog box, carefully review the Current disc information to be sure that
the correct disc is in the drive.
2 Select the Photo Disc record that you want to rebind to the current disc from the Photo Disc
Name list.
3Click Rebind.
