Sorry I have a few questions.

  1. If a CD-R already had either a jpeg or audio track on it would it then ask for the CD-R to be named when using it or is naming it only available if it is a blank CD-R being used for the first time?

  2. If a CD-R has JPEG’s and audio tracks on it will it still play in a regular CD player?

  3. If a CD-R had jpegs on it already but in a different session I wanted to then add audio tracks is this possible or do you have to add everything at the same time?

  4. Can you delete files from a CD-R?

Most of this is reliant on the CD player. Computers will see data partitions, regular music players won't - some will be able to find an audio partition, others will only find it if it's the first thing on the disc.
A lot of this is very hand-wavy, because your actual circumstances are unclear.
Check the manual for your player , burner & burning software for more detail.

  1. Audio CDs don't have names, or indeed any metadata. Only the data partition can be named, so it depends how the first session was burned.

  2. Depends on the player, see above.

  3. It depends on whether the session was closed/finalised after the last recording.

  4. No, you need CD-RW to do that.

As mentioned in comments, CD-Text allows the specification of track name metadata for players that support it, including some car players. This would need to be provided for in the burner software too.
