Im trying to re use some old CD's by erasing them in Disc Utiliy, they
were orignally burned using a Windows machine.  I can see the CD Icon
but when I click on it there are no options I can use (First Aid,
Erase, Partition etc)

Help - what am i doing wrong !?!?

Um. Are they re-writable CDs?

The most common writable CDs are CD-R, which can
only be used once and not erased.

CD-RWs can be, but are not so commonly used; they
are more expensive and usually write slower.
