Backing up files

[Guest]

I go through the backup wizard and select the files and then select the E
drive to back them up in. It asks me to give a name to the files and when I
write "my music " or "itunes " it tells me that the back up file name cannot
be used to make sure it is a valid path with sufficient access. What does
this mean and what to do? Thanks for any help.

NTBackup can't write directly to CD-RW. Backup to hard drive and then burn to CD.

Thank you. I eventually found all of the Itunes in the my photo files. Could
you possibly let me know how to back them up to hard drive and then to dvd.

How do I backup my files and folders in XP?:

Then to burn to a DVD drive, you need a burner software which comes with the drive.
