Thanks for taking the time to reply ..........I appreciate the help.......it says DVD+R but then over on the other side it says 4x RW.............I thought I purchased plain Recordables but I dont know what the 4 x RW means................I figured it meant I could erase and record over them 4 times but Ive had no luck...................so what the heck does the 4 x RW mean??

4X is the write speed of the disc all RWs record at 4X only

I kinda figured it wasnt re writable but why do they bother putting 4 x RW ?? Why not just put 4 x R ?? Are they trying to be deceptive or what?? Whats the porpose
