How to burn .iso files on a Mac?

[i am yujin]

Hey, I just downloaded a file and I'm wondering how would i go burning it?

I tried just opening the .iso file and clicking burn but that doesn't seem to work.

O yeah, I'm using toast.

Internet?

I can think of plenty of times I've legitimately downloaded and burned an ISO file. Most distributions of Linux, for example, are downloaded as an ISO. Ditto for all the other open-source systems.

So, I'd suggest we can give Yujin the benefit of the doubt here. Remember, kiddies, that piracy gets in the way of software development and makes it hard on an industry that is already pretty tough. Enough said.

If you just pick the ISO file and choose burn, all you'll get is a disc with the ISO file on it.

You can use the Disk Copy utility in /Applications/Utilities. Open it, and select File -> Burn Image.

You can also use the commercial program Toast, if you happen to have it.

The easiest way to do it in Toast is to hold down the mouse button on the 'Other' button and select ISO 9660 from the list.

You can also choose Image file in Toast. *.iso files are images of CD-ROMs.
