Save docments on cd-rw?

Question

I have documents that i want to save to a cd. I want to save the originals and type in additional information and then save that. when I type it and try to save it it keeps saying it is "read only" and won't let me save it. help!!!

Answer 1

Try saving the originals first, before you make any changes.  Unless the documents are protected, you should be able to do that, but if you open up a document you received by email, it opens as read only.  You have to save it to your computer FIRST.

Answer 2

Your document writer is trying to write the edited files to the CD.

CDs, once written, usually can't be modified. What you will have to do is to make a save a copy locally on your C:\ or D"\ drive or home directory and then burn another cd with the edited files.

A thumb drive or memory stick can be edited this way.
