backup to CDrom?

I made a copy of /home/ccashion/....
Then I read it to make sure it was good.
then I wanted to read it on my vista laptop.
The first thing vista wanted was to (a) close
the cdrom or (b) something else. I think I
chose (b) something else. Now I cannot read
the cd on either ubuntu or vista.

Q: Is there any way I can recover my info?

You may have messed up on permissions.
Have you tried
gksudo nautilus
from a Ubuntu terminal?
