It should be working properly for all applications if you are
physically
logged-in on that machine and not using it remotely.
P.S. Please stop top-posting on this mailing list.

I tried to mount the data CD by clicking on the File Manager as Root
or User but it failed to open the CD.
You shouldn't need to do this because it should already be mounted.
When you say "It's working fine in the console", what do you mean?
What I mean is that I can mount and open the files on my data CD by typing:
#mount /dev/hdc -t iso9660 /media/cdrecorder
Then I can cd to the /media/cdrecorder directory and see and manipulate
my subdirectories and files.
If I try to access my data CD using the File Manager as Root, it will
not work (I get a crash sound) UNTIL I first mount it in the console as
above. Then, after mounting it, I can access my files either in the
console (as above) or by using the File Manager as Root.
OK; what I've been saying is that you should not need to mount the
filesystem yourself at all. Fedora should detect that you have inserted
media and do the mount for you.
What's in your /etc/fstab?
Do any messages appear in /var/log/messages when you insert a data CD?
