Technical information

While playing an audio track on a CD-ROM disc that combines audio tracks and data,
you double-click the disc icon and the audio track stops playing.
m Some CD-ROM discs include tracks in the music CD format (like the tracks on regular music CDs)
and other data. On such discs, you can’t open data files and listen to audio tracks at the same time.
You are unable to record sound from an audio CD.
m You may need to reset the sound options in the Monitors & Sound control panel. Refer to the
information on sound in Mac OS Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.
Problems using Photo CDs
You insert a Photo CD disc, but its icon doesn’t appear on the desktop.
m Reinstall the CD-ROM and QuickTime software. The easiest way to do this is by reinstalling your
system software, following the instructions in “Installing System Software” in Chapter 13.
Your computer does not display color icons for individual images on a Photo CD.
m Your computer may be low on memory. To view color icons, restart your computer and then reopen
the Photos folder. See Mac OS Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu, for more information on
managing memory.
After you open an image file on a Photo CD, the image is scrambled, colors are
displayed incorrectly, or no image appears in the window.
m The application you are using may not be designed to work with large (high-resolution) image files.
You can open the image with another application or you can assign more memory to the
application. See Mac OS Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu, for more information on
managing memory.
After you open an image on a Photo CD, your system “freezes” and does not respond
to any input, or you have a “bomb” message on your screen.
m Restart your Macintosh. (Instructions for restarting your computer are in Chapter 11, “Start Here
If Trouble Occurs.”) The application you are using may not be designed to work with large
(high-resolution) image files. You can open the image with another application or you can assign
more memory to the current application. See Mac OS Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu, for
more information on managing memory.
