Warning:

When labeling your DVDs, do

not use sticky labels. They can cause the
DVD to play erratically. Instead, write on
the DVD with a felt tip pen to label it.

RecordNow, and then click RecordNow.
The RecordNow main window opens.

2 Click Make a Data Disc.
3 Insert the blank CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+R, or

DVD+RW disc.

recording your files.

Click the Help button for more information about
the RecordNow program.

About recording data

When recording data files, RecordNow can
update existing files that have been previously
recorded, and can also add new files to CD-Rs,
CD-RWs, or DVD+RWs. Any files with the same
name will be overwritten with the newer version.

Important:

When RecordNow or MyDVD records data

to a DVD+R disc, it creates a closed session disc.
This means that once the data has been recorded,
no more data can be added to that disc. Make
sure all data files are selected before you record
them to a DVD+R disc.

RecordNow can also make copies of discs and
archive data from your hard disk drive.

RecordNow will not record commercial or other
protected DVD titles.
