Getting Songs from A music file?

Post by Ray Montee (RIP) »

All tunes thus far installed on the jbfc.com site are stored as follows: My computer;
C Drive; inpub; root; music and already mp.3

I would like to be able to pull those tunes out and put them on a CD so I can clear off my hard drive accordingly.

Thus far, I've not discovered the secret for doing this. ANY SUGGESTIONS? THanks in advance.

I guess I am not sure so I will ask ..

Are the MP3's actually on your PC in a folder or are they on a website which is accessed from your PC folder..I couldn't tell from your detail above.

If they are on your PC there is no reason NOT to be able to burn them to CD..IF they are accessed from a folder pointing to a website then NO it cannot be done.

IF they are in a file location on your PC then you just need to point the CD burner to the folder location and add them to the burn list as desired. If you are not certain about the file path, locate one in your Windows Explorer , right click on it and view the properties. Write it down if necessary. Historically when we download things from the net, Windows takes over and places these things in very obscure locations , that is if you don't change the path to a more recognizable location.

Ray, if you can see the files with Windows Explorer or "My Computer" you oughta be able to drag, drop, copy, paste, bend, spindle, fold, and mutilate them anywhere to any drive or storage device.<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Ray Minich on 04 November 2004 at 08:14 PM.]</p></FONT>

MANY THANKS to both of you. I've followed your recommendations and lo- and behold, it worked the first time out. I've made a CD copy for my reference.

The thought of having to record all of the tunes and making unnecessary steps really depressed me.. Your help is sincerely appreciated.
