How to Burn an ISO Image to CD/DVD in Leopard OS X
Posted on February 7th, 2008 in Apple, Computers |
This is actually quite a simple task yet I’ve received several emails recently about how to burn an ISO to disc in Leopard OS X. I totally understand the reason for this question from the general OS X user because to do this you have to know the tool to use and normally it is used by the intermediate/advanced user.
So, how do you burn an .iso image to a CD or DVD in OS X?
Insert the CD/DVD into your Mac, locate your .ISO image and follow these very easy steps:
Go to Finder > Applications > Utilities and run Disk Utility (Disk Utility.app)
In Disk Utility, go to File > Open Disk Image and select the .ISO you want to burn to disc
Now click Burn
Thats it! Now you should see a little box pop up with the status of your ISO image being written to the disc.

When I follow these instructions, Disk Utility pops up a message that reads, “You cannot save this document with extension “.iso” at the end of the name. The required extension is “.dmg”. It presents the options, “Use both”, “Cancel”, and “Use .dmg”. If I select “Use .dmg”, Disk Utility appends “.dmg” after “.iso”.
Hi Mark - try renaming the ISO to a .cdr file and click Burn.
