    I am using Nero 6.6, and have a DVD+RW with data on it (Pictures). My question is that when I try to add more pictures later, the program says that there is already data on the disk and it will be lost if I continue. I have Nero set to multi-session and want to know how I can add files without losing what is already on there. I use Windows XP SP2 and the built in Windows burner is no good either.

    I know I can put everything from the DVD disk onto the computer and then then recopy everything plus the new pictures back to the DVD, but my questions is can a DVD+RW be written to after it already has data on it without erasing the disk.

    Yes, you can add more files, provided the original burn did not finalize (close multisession ) on the disk.

    I've found in some cases doing this, My Computer in Xp won't pick up the previous writing sessions, so I turned to a little nice app called Isobuster which will retrieve almost anything.

    When burning with Nero your data files, select udf/iso and you'll be fine.

    This may be a dumb question, but I use UDF/ISO and still Get the message that files will be overwritten if I continue. My question now is which part of Nero do I use to add more files. I was using make UDF/ISO DVD to both create the disc and add more files.
