I have a disc that I need to run after restarting my mac. How do I set it up to do this?
I'm talking about a CD DISC not a HD DSK. I want it to run the DISC when I restart it.
Answer
What does "a disc that I need to run" mean? You can run an application, but not a disc.
Do you refer to a CD that has one or more executable files ("executable file" means program / app / installer) on it? Those apps do not run until you decide to run them. OS X does not support general auto run of executable files because it is a serious security risk. Imagine that some prankster in your office burned a CD with a malwear installer that could launch at startup, and he put it in your computer's CD slot while your computer was off and you were getting coffee. Unless you put a locking cover over the CD slot, you could get duped into accidentally installing malwear on your system.
In System Preferences > CDs & DVDs, you can select to open iTunes or another app when you insert a music CD, open iPhoto or another app when you insert a picture CD, and to open DVD Player or another app when you insert a video DVD. You can also chose for the system to ignore these same types of discs.
If you have a particular disc with a particular executable ("runable") file on it that you would love to have launch without your going to all the trouble of clicking it, you can write a script that can accomplish this. You would need either to add a repeating poll event or add several seconds delay to the launch command to allow the disc to mount after login. Add the script to your account Login Items.

How much is the "DVD Player" application on the Mac?
James
Is it free? Or is there a price?
Answer
The DVD player app on the Mac is bundled with OS X and comes free with every new Mac. You cannot buy it separately.
