Two Questions

Are you using any particular disc buring software, or just the built
in Finder? I have never used CDR/W since I have several hundred blank
CD's, but have you just tried to "erase" the CDR/W?

If I can find one, I'll try it out.

Disk Utility (or whatever, since I use an Italian version) - check
Spotlight if you don't know where it is

select the CD-RW on the left - don't select your main HD!

press the Initialize button

follow instructions

After a while, the disk is blank and ready for rewriting. I did it many
times, so I know it works.

That IS strange. Must be Apple's new strategy of embarrassing Usenet users.

1) Don't know.

2) There is an "Erase Disc" option in the Disc Utility. Yoy have to
erase it first before you reburn. There is a "Quick Erase" option that
only takes about a minute.
