I beleive you missed the post on the other thread that direct you to solve your problem: Posted by "Misho": If you hold down the trackpad "mouse" botton during power up, the CD drive should spit out the CD. |

| Try MacFixIT Don't get upset already, There may be others who can help here if you can provide details, such as: Whether your computer is a desktop or laptop, what type of Mac it is (G4/G5), Slot CD Rom or tray type etc. For a tray type there have been always a pin hole to eject CDs in emergencies. In a G5 PowerMac I think but not sure you can remove the CD Rom from inside the casing easily to try insert the Pin. I am not a hardware technical person, but if you are in a hurry post your Mac issues on MacFixIT website. Otherwise wait for other members to assist you here. |

| iMac CD ejection Gentlemen, Though I've been a member for some time but that was gearing up before I buy my iMac. I have similar problem to what been described in this thread. a CD was loaded in the CD slot, it doesn't appear on the desktop (I guess it was inserted wrongly), I tried to eject it in many way including the procedure mentioned in the thread but am not succeeding. I am trying to avid sending the machine to Mac maintenance. Any suggestion? |
