MacBook users have long known the legendary Toast Titanium program. Starting with Mac OS 9, there was no better program for burning discs, over the years of its existence, the title of the best program for mounting discs remains the same for Mac OS X. But since that time, Toast has become a powerful tool and has acquired new features. As a matter of fact, if you're unsure and your disk image is bigger than 800KB, Toast will 99% of the time successfully mount it. Try this software if you're stuck with a blank icon that doesn't open with any other application. First, install Toast 5 Titanium if you have Mac OS 8.6 to Mac OS 9.2.2.

Just for reference, this was available since at least 10.2.

Yes, isn't .toast the same as a DVD/CD master? And I'm positive I've mounted toast images with OS9's Disk Copy before.
The new thing about this is that we're talking about Disk Utility, not Disk Copy. Disk Copy is no longer in Panther and its functionality has been put into Disk Utility. Thus, this is a new hint and not a repeat of a previous feature.
I've noticed that Disk Utility won't recognize .toast files directly, the way Disk Copy did. I'd rather convert the image without mounting it, personally..

Dungeontracks: in charms way mac os. Update: I noticed that if I changed the .toast extension to .iso, Disk Utility will allow me to convert it without mounting it first, which is the preferred way to go about that.

What happens in 10.3 to AppleScripts that send events (when made in 10.2) to Disk Copy? Are they forwarded on to Disk Utility? Of course, one could just rewrite the script to do the work using the command line (do shell) utilities (disktool, hdiutil, diskutil), but there might still be a need for interfacing with the GUI utility I suppose.
Has anyone used the older Disc Copy from say, 10.2.x in panther? I miss it as a stand alone and found it rather awkward just to make some img for server deployment (Using Disc Utility, then makinga new image, giving it a size, ..)
Before it was just drag and img.

I use Disk Copy from 10.2.8 for drag and drop operations in panther and it does its job very well.

Targetzone mac os. This works for 10.5.6 Mac. Get your toast file, and open it with disk utility. Select the toast file at the left, and then click convert at the top, and have it end with .dmg. It works like a charm, but it may take awhile if it is a large file. It took my 5 gig .toast file about 4-5 minutes to convert it..
Anybody still out there? I'm having a problem with a .toast file-i've tried changing the extension, then converting it in Disk Utility. Every time I try, however, it says 'Unable to create '_____.dmg' (not recognized)'.
Anybody got advice?
System: Mac OSX 10.5.8
