Making an Audio CD using Nero 7 - Nero Express
 
4 Attachment(s)
You will find a one month trial version of Nero here in case you don't know what it is: www.nero.com

First you need to locate your music/audio. If it was downloaded from Limewire/Frostwire the default location would be C:\Documents and Settings\**Your Username**\Shared

You can also access your music/audio through Limewire/Frostwire, by going to your Library, then highlighting a file that you want to burn and press explore. This will open the folder containing the highlighted file.

Alternatively use the search to search for something you know is in the folder you want to access or eg. search for the extension of the music/audio you want to burn.

----------------------------------------

First it may be worth mentioning that there are two ways of burning audio in Nero 7. Using Nero Express or Nero Burning ROM (The original Nero program). I find both very simple to use, but prefer Nero Express, so That's what I will use here.

First open Nero StartSmart:

Pressing add is not necessary. You can also open folders outside of Nero Express, and then you drag and drop the same way.

You can make mp3 disks using Nero Express as well. Just choose make Data Disk instead of Audio CD in Nero StartSmart. The only difference you will see is that instead of minutes you will be adding size (MB)

In case you run into playback issues when using Nero Express, then you have two options. You could try using Nero Burning ROM. Raaf explains here how to do that with Nero 6, but Nero 7 is very similar:

Another way is to run a tool called CD/DVD Drive Speed (can be found in Nero StartSmart under Tools, where you let Nero burn test disks for checking the best speed for this type of disk.

Hope this helps and Good luck :idea:

Sleepless thanks for your reply.


I have Lime wire 4.10.9, so I have down loaded my music, then I high light the tracks, and click resume , which takes me to the shared folder, where I high light them again and click copy to audio C.D.
This takes all the files to wmp. and I then add them to the burn list, which is fine as they convert , and then burn , but they are still in Mp3 format. Nero express ?? where do i get that from, never heard of it , sorry Im a beginer. P.S. and also thanks RAAF. from nederlands.. Roger...........

Sorry. Guess I forgot to include a link to Nero. It's the most popular burn program for Windows. There is a 1 month trial version here www.nero.com

After that you will have to pay for the full program to continue using it (USD60)

WMP should be able to burn to audio CD though. At least it could do that last time I tried it.

Hi Sleepless,
Thanks for your help, I did download nero express, I have used 9 C.Ds so far 4 went to burn only to Mp3 format so they went in the bin, then 5 went to burn to audoi c d from nero and only one of these seems O.K. as when I play them on my car c d they start to play (sometimes) or the device tells me that the c d is unreadable.
As you say, you should be able to burn audio from wmp , because i did just that last year with no trouble and am still playing that c d on my car.. as you can guess I do this once a year , so thats why Im not to good at it .... I think I will give it up for this year............... Roger........

This sounds more like a hardware problem. Try using a different type of CD or try the program in Nero called Nero Burning ROM. In the guide there is a link at the bottom to another guide for Nero 6 (Nero Burning ROM). It doesn't look quite the same but it's still very similar. Choose a very low speed for burning like 4X. That should help with players that aren't really compatible for the burned disks. Also try buying some more expensive disks.

Have you tried the 4 disks, that couldn't be read in on car, in any other CD Players that support CD-R?

Hi Sleepless,
I think this matter can now be resolved.
In Nero express at the top (I must be really stupid) as you know you can burn in different formats, and I think the first one that plays O.K. was done in C.D. and the others in C.D./DVD, that is why they are not playing in my car but do in my DVD player. Just tried another one in C.D and its fine when in the car player. Must now go out and buy some more C.Ds.

Still would like to know how i managed to be successful last year burnig an audio c.d. from wmp.. Thanks for all your help, could'nt have done it with out you... Roger..........

burning c/d
 
well, I open nero express and find an empty box...how do I get the songs into the box so I can drag on them to burn em? Wish I had your skills on the dammmmmm computer!!

Thanks

You lost me here. Empty box??

Could you post a screenshot of what you mean?

I really tried to make this guide as simple as possible.

muhctekdano January 12th, 2007 10:36 AM

I think I know what you mean...

Look at the second picture in the first post by Sleepless.

You must click 'Add' and browse for your music to get it in the box.

Each time you select a file to add, the option to add more will keep popping up until you're done (select 'close').

Good Luck
