computer users.

2 Choose Mac & PC from the format selection menu.
3 Click the Options button, if necessary, to reveal these optional disc
settings:

cannot fit on a single disc.

open the main window of the disc when it is inserted into a
Macintosh.

5 Add files and folders to the disc by dragging and dropping them into
the Content Area from your hard disk or the Media Browser.
