My cd rewriter is not working

You can remove or change the Window's User or administrator's password and privileges. You need access to a computer with Internet access to download the Hiren's Boot CD and burn it onto a CD.
Then insert this CD into the laptop/computer and boot up the laptop-computer with the Hiren's CD and follow the instructions.
There are very useful utilities CD and it a Linux boot CD which contains quite a lot of Utility programs including a password removal program.

You could try running a virtual Windows computer (using Parallels or VMWare) on your Mac. The LG site has drivers for Windows 2000, XP and Vista. There are no Mac drivers listed. Otherwise you need a different computer or burner.

I am sorry that I can't be of more help but the owner's manual indicates that this product was made for Windows systems only.

Try a different piece of CD-rewritable media.

Try erasing/writing onto the CD-rewritable disk by using another computer.

Record, with pen-and-paper, the error-message that you get when you try to write, and do a Google-search for that text, to see if other person have had the same problem, and have found solutions that work for them.

hi frankie;
you can use third party software to burn your songs into the disc or you can use the built in burner of Windows. What operating system are you using? some things you need to check before burning:

1. cd-rom capable of burning?
2. is it a cd rewritable or a dvd rewritable?
-you can use cd-r or cdrw on dvd rewritables but not dvd-r/dvdrw on cd rewritable.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1. locate the songs you played on your media player in your computer,highlight it and right click one of the highlighted mp3 then select copy from the list
2. Insert the cd into your optical drive ( cdrom or dvd rom).
3. Open My computer and double click your optical drive icon.
4. Right click on the empty space inside that window and right click mouse then paste
5. There should be a link at the left side of the window that says "Write these files to CD"

***frankie; i would just like to remind you that the music burning im referring to is mp3 music, if you want to burn audio cd, you need 3rd party software for that.

Some cd players(discman, etc.) only play audio music format and not of mp3 format. Provide me details of what you want to do and i will help you. :)

Yes, SP3 has known to cause this issue. Let me check further for you..
