Will some kind soul tell me how do save something to a CD? I downloaded it and I want to save it to a CD, but it says there's an error or something. I honestly don't know anything about computers.

is it a cd burner or just a regular cd drive? if it is just a regular cd drive, then you can't save things on to it because it only reads from the disk, it can't write to it.

Yeah, there are three things you need to remember when you wanna save something to a cd:
1. You must have a CD writer, not just a CD-Rom drive.
2. You must use a CD-R (recordable CD-Rom) no just a normal CD. In other words, you can't just record over a CD that you don't like.
3. You have to use CD-Burning software to write to the disk. Your opperating system (windows/mac os/linux) may be setup to do this automatically.

That being said, how are you trying to copy, and what kind of computer do you have?

I just want to say thank you, it's working now. I was trying to save it like you would a Word document or something. ^_^'''' I burned it on now. Thank you!
