Deluxe 2008 Backup to CDRW get error Device is Read only this worked under 2006

Feb 08, 2009 1 Replies

I installed quicken deluxe 2008 & upgraded to release 9. I attempted to backup to a CDRW using the backup function of quicken. (this is the way i backed up my files when using quicken deluxe 06) I selected the option to add the date to the backup file name. when i try to do the backup i get an error "choose another device. this device is read only". there is plenty of space left on CDRW & i can write to it with other software in this device.



Any ideas on what is going wrong?

Intuit has been breaking CD backup in every version since about 2004. I downloaded "Karen's Replicator", and I now use that. It has many options, and works reliably. It also has the advantage of being free.
