.CDR file

Hello Rosy,
what happens when you launch discopy?

Good evening Rosy,
If these .cdr files are not opened by dikcopy, it means they are not Mac files (cdr can be a homonym of the Mac format) but PC files created with Corel Draw. Try to select the file and ask to read the information.

Hi. Are you sure you have a Mac with OS X installed? Try to create a disk image in Master CD/DVD using Disk Utility and check its extension. But it will be in lowercase, unlike most files generated under Windows.

It was j.m.theuillon who was right, it is likely a CorelDraw file from the Corel Graphic Suite 11 which also exists for Mac OS (9 and X) in Carbon version. This version of Corel Draw also creates .cdr files on Mac. Hence the confusion, as it must be said that Corel Draw on Mac is quite rare. Although it did have its small success when transitioning to Mac OS X, because Adobe's Streamline was not carbonized and the Corel Graphic Suite offered an alternative for the vectorization of Bitmap images.

To return to disk images in .cdr, they have the particularity of being an exact copy of a CD/DVD, meaning they respect the various included formatings. For example, under Mac OS 9, you would create a burning session in HFS, under Mac OS X, you would create one in HFS+, and then you would create a disk image of that CD (the Norton Disk Utility CD was like that) which you would use to create a custom hybrid disk image to which you would add an ISO session for Windows. You would have to respect 3 formatings. Well, Disk Utility is capable of converting these images while keeping the 3 formatings exactly. There should even be a way to create a strict MS DOS partition, another Joliet, etc.

*.cdr is a CorelDraw file extension. It's an image made of vectors rather than pixels. With CorelDraw or Inkscape, you can open these images and edit them.
However, it would be interesting to be able to preview a directory of these images like a document explorer, but there I don't know how to do it.

The biggest flaw of the machine.....
is that it is made by man

Good evening Rosy,
You need to open it with the discopy utility provided with OS 9.

Try with Toast but I'm not sure if it can be mounted but rather burned.

If you have a CDRW do a little test by burning it either with Disk Image or with Toast in image mode.

So I drag the file onto the disk copy icon and then it tells me: "The operation 'Mount an image' could not be executed (-8816)
The file '.....' is not of a recognized type."

Hello,
right-click or ctrl-click to open with Disk Utility, then insert a CD or DVD and click on the burn icon
no need for Toast.

Hello,
a .CRD file is a Mac OS file, it is used to reinstall the operating system of Mac computers... simply put, don't overthink it, if you insert it into your Mac during the reboot, it will prompt you to continue with the installation of the .dmg image :-)

I had already searched with the search engine and found the same article, but it doesn't really show me how to open my .cdr file.

Thank you for your help!

I got disk copy but it doesn't work! grrrrr....

Please provide another solution.

Hi!

A ".CDR" is not a disk image and has no counterpart on Mac, so by default your machine tries to mount it as a disk image.

Whereas a ".CDR" document is a "CorelDRAW" document, if you want to open it, you need to use "Adobe Illustrator" and save it in the format of your choice.

See you!

Hello,
CDR files are CORELDRAW files, the Photoshop equivalent edited by COREL. It must be a plan or a drawing, right?
