Temporary image file when copying a disc in Toast 6

Thanks. It is not a commercial release and the only title the DVD has is a long string of numbers (I searched for em, but had no luck). In Toast it shows up as <No Volume> or something, which I also searched in vain for.

It was a live dvd, so it was probably burned initially using a VIDEO_TS folder, but I was not ripping it, just copying it.

and see if you can find where is stores the Temp files when burning.

It says they're being stored in a folder called Roxio Converted Items, but when I check it it's empty. Maybe a temporary image file doesn't count as a converted item; I have no idea. This is just ridiculously confusing.

Here's an idea - is there anyway to see what the largest files on your hard drive are?

Just hold down the Apple Key and press F and in the resulting box, press and hold the KIND button. The bottom option should be size.

Then off you go

My computer claimed it didn't have any files of the size I was looking for, which is clearly wrong.

Basically, I just need to figure out where Toast stores the image files it creates when it copies a disc with one drive. I copied another disc and while it was copying (and had temporarily taken up another 3gb of my drive) searched for where the file that had just been crated was, with no luck.

I've tried all the Roxio technical support options and none of them seem to work. The site won't let me register to get to the Roxio discussion groups either.

Hey there,

I had the same problem myself and have exhausted everything trying to figure out where my 4+GB has gone too. Have you had any luck figuring it out by chance?

Roxio's support is just garbage. It takes 4-5 minutes just to load the support page and when trying to send a support email, it either never loads or server errors out. Phone support is useless as well.

Thanks for any help!

I never figured it out. And you're right, Roxio's tech support is completely useless. If you do figure it out, let me know! Thanks.

users/yourname/documents/roxio/roxio converted items?

Seems like it has that in the preferences as the place to put converted items which it then, supposedly, deletes when Toast quits

Thanks, I tried that just now and it's empty... maybe its a hidden file? Nada there... this is so frustrating. I can't believe we have to spend $35 with Roxio tech support to fix their goof!

But, better than reformatting my hard drive I suppose - just barely!

Thanks!!
