did you make sure to "eject the disk" before removing it from your PC?
executor doesn't [or i should say didn't used to] update the info on the disk 
until an EJECT command is received [from a file dialog or i would assume GO 
has an option to do that]  

i found myself often having to reinsert the disk and hitting the eject button
so i could read the files properly on a mac.
