I have Mac OSX 10.4.11 operating systems. I went to back up my documents folder, by following these instructions and ran into this problem, lost my files:
I tried to use the instructions for back up files using a BURN FOLDER, using these steps:
Instructions:
1. In the Finder, choose File > New Burn Folder and name it.
2. Drag your important files to the burn folder. For example, drag the Documents folder to the burn folder.
3. Open the burn folder, click Burn, and insert a disc when asked. The original files that the aliases point to are burned to the disc.
I inserted my travel drive and created a burn folder on that. I dragged my documents folder to the travel drive "burn folder" and dropped it in.
The documents folder then disappeared from my menu, and when I click on the burn folder "burn" button, nothing happens. How do I get my documents back?
Any help much appreciated!
