This external DVD writer is designed for reading and writing CDs and DVDs when connected to a computer. It allows you to burn data, music, and videos to discs, and play discs on your computer.

    Asked by Anonymous.

Yes, the AP70NS50 is fully compatible with Mac OS X (as well as Windows 7, 8, Vista, and XP).

  • QuestionWill it work with MacMini?

    Asked by Rossmir.

    • Answer Hi there, Rossmir. We understand your inquiry about using the LG AP70NS50 External DVD Drive with your Mac Mini. According to our specifications, this model supports Mac OS X along with various Windows versions, so it’s fully compatible with your Mac Mini’s operating system. Troubleshooting Step: To ensure seamless operation, first verify that your Mac Mini’s USB ports are supplying sufficient power and that you’re connecting the drive directly (or via a powered USB hub) rather than through an unpowered hub. If your Mac Mini only has USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 ports, use a reliable USB-A to USB-C adapter or cable to connect the AP70NS50’s USB 2.0 plug. Then, open System Information > USB on your Mac Mini to confirm the drive is recognized under “USB 2.0 Bus.” If you encounter any issues—like the drive not appearing in Finder or slow read speeds—please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport. Our team will be happy to guide you through driver checks, firmware updates, or alternative connection methods to get your drive working perfectly. https://www.lg.com/us/burners-drives/lg-ap70ns50-external-dvd-drive#pdp_specs We appreciate your patience and look forward to helping you enjoy your AP70NS50 with your Mac Mini. —Renzo

  • QuestionCan I use this to show movies on my television?

    Asked by Keith.

    • Answer Hi there, Keith. Thank you for reaching out about the LG AP70NS50 External DVD Drive. We understand that you're interested in using it to play movies on your TV. This external DVD drive is primarily designed to connect to a computer via USB, allowing you to play DVDs or Blu-rays directly from your computer. Unfortunately, it does not have TV connectivity built-in, meaning it cannot directly connect to your television to play DVDs. To play movies on your TV, you would need a DVD/Blu-ray player or a device like a media streaming box (such as a Roku or Chromecast) that connects to your TV. You could also connect the external DVD drive to your computer and use HDMI to link your computer to your TV, effectively allowing you to watch movies on the TV through your computer. https://www.lg.com/us/burners-drives/lg-ap70ns50-external-dvd-drive#pdp_specs If you need any further guidance or assistance, feel free to send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport, and we'd be happy to assist you further! —Renzo
