Erasing DVD+RW on iMac

I have an iMac running OS X. I'm trying to use a DVD+RW but can't get it erased. I have tried the standard disk utility, doing both a quick and complete erase but it doesn't work. It goes through the process, but when I try to burn to the DVD it generates an error.

I had this problem years ago (same OS) and I found an Adobe forum where I said I got it to work (I was using an Adobe product to burn the DVD). In my forum I mentioned I had an Apple support person help but I was still under warranty and now they cost a fortune to talk to you. Unfortunately, I can't find what I did but I'm suspecting the Apple guy had some trick he told me to try. I'm hoping somebody in this forum might know what it was.

I have a USB connected Apple SuperDrive.

Thanks

Rick
