    Hi all, I really need help pleaseeee....... I just got my 1st macbook and was trying to burn win 7 iso file in my macbook.

    1st problem, it wont let me copy and drag/paste the files from the usb, said that i do not have enough access/permission.....then the copying thingy hangs, will not close until i forcequit the finder. Then all the files in the usb flashdisk disappeared....could not be seen...cant eject it either :mad:had to unplug it without ejecting .

    I tried burning with my brother's old macbook (tiger) everything was a breeze, no prob except the dvd was not able to be read when i try to boot with bootcamp.....arggggg.

    I have tried repairing permission with disk utility but that didnt work either.

    Can someone please hed some light.....I thought apple/osx was supposed to be easy.... :confused:

    confusingly yours
    Bianca
