Aug 21, 2009

Sometimes when I eject a CD or DVD from my Mac mini, the disk comes out flying, like the way cartoon toasters spit out bread. Not always, just sometimes.

OS X :: Mac Mini Can Eject Disk, But Can't?

Aug 4, 2009

I have a mac mini and i tried getting boot camp up and running.

i was looking through our cd's and i found one that said windows xp installation and system restore disk. thinking this is what i needed, i put it in my mac when it said to insert the cd. then it restarted and went to a black screen (like pc's do when they start up) and it said,Gateway couldn't find an operating system to restore, press R to restore

I cant press anything else and when i press R, nothing happens.

if i unplug it or hold down the power button and turn it back on, it goes to the white apple screen (just before you see the apple logo) and then back to the black system restore screen. if i could get to the desktop i could eject the disk. but i cant.

Software :: Can't Eject Disk Images And No Right Click Eject Option?

Mar 3, 2008

I've been having problem with either Firefox or Safari and I download something and the dmg extracts and I'm left with the white casing shell where the app is housed and it won't eject. I can't eject it from finder but dumping it to the trash from finder took it off the sidebar. I can't get them off my desktop unless I restart my Mac.

I've noticed now that along with disk images not mounting for me anymore. My external drive images or DVD's won't eject either.

When I use right click with Mighty Mouse I don't even see an option anymore to eject that image. Is there any solution out there to fix this glitch? The work around I'm using is unmounting or ejecting images or disks from Disk Utility.

Why is this happening and how do I fix it? I'm using Leopard 10.5.2 and am on an intel iMac.

Mac Mini :: How Can I Eject A Disc From Mini Without Keyboard Or Mouse

Jan 26, 2009

I recently obtained a Mini which I've connected to my TV for watching movies/etc. I don't have a keyboard or mouse on the Mini.I ripped a disc the other night (via a remote connection) and realized that I don't know how to eject the disc from the Mini without a keyboard, mouse, or remote connection from my MBP. I suppose there is probably some way to script MTR and then execute a disktool afterwards but what if I'm just watching a disc and want to eject it?

MacBook :: Why Does Eject The OS 10.5 Install Disk

Mar 27, 2012

My MacBook will accept and play CDs that contain music and data, but it ejects the OS 10.5 install disk and all DVDs after a few seconds of what sounds like it's trying to boot them. I'm running 10.5.8 now, and I need to do some disk repairs but am unable to designate a non-HD startup disk to use for that purpose. I've read several posts in the discussion forums, the last of which stated that this problem was resolved by inserting the disc over and over until it "took." After about 10 times of doing that for the last several minutes, it doesn't appear to be "taking." Another post mentioned an optical drive cleaner as a possible fix, and another concluded that a similar problem was a broken drive. I don't know about the latter, since my MacBook still plays CDs without any problems.

MacBook :: Can Not Eject Disk, Remount Instantly?

May 25, 2010

I am having problem to eject an external flash drive in my MacBook. After I eject the disk, the icon disappears normally, but re-appears instantly before I plug it out from the USB hub. So, every time I end up with an irritating warning sign.

Is there a way to stop remounting a disk once it is ejected from the system?

The flash drive I am having problem is actually not a generic flash drive but a mp3 player manufactured by Iriver - Iriver T5, which also work as a flash drive for me and a cross-plateform disk space for use in emergency.

I do not have this problem with other dedicated flash and external drivers.

Please share if you have any solution or thoughts toward the solutions.

MacBook Pro :: Disk Drive Won't Read Or Eject

Jun 4, 2012

I put a cd in the slot drive to burn to my itunes. At first it seemed to behave as normal, it sucked the disk in, made noise, all that good stuff. Well I went to itunes to find the disk and it didn't show. It didn't show up in finder either. I decided to eject and try again, but the disk wouldn't eject. Since then there's been no noises from the drive. It seems like the drive just died, like it's not even trying to start up or work. The cd is literally a week old, and has been in my car cd player since I bought it, so I know the disk is clean. Also, I used the drive a week or two ago to burn several disks and had no problems with it. All my software is up to date and it reads the drive as being there, it just doesn't work. 

I've spent a few hours troubleshooting this. Like I said, the computer doesn't even seem to realize there's a disk in the drive. I've tried restarting while  holding down the mouse (well, trackpad actually), repairing permissions, blowing in compressed air, tried ejecting with terminal, gravity, resetting the SMC, and probably a couple other things I'm forgetting.

MacBook Pro :: Disk Stuck In Optical Drive - How To Eject It

Sep 14, 2009

This is pretty urgent. I've got a late 2008 15 inch MBP (the one with the express card reader) and I put in a DVD and it wouldn't read it. As it didn't read it, I can't eject it, and this is pretty bad.

OS X :: Unable To Eject - Disk In Use?

Oct 25, 2007

I have just started getting this pretty annoying error today on my external FW drive.

I want to eject it so I can put some felt pads underneath it as its making a right humming noise on the desk but when i try to eject it i get the error.

Now unless I am missing something, it tells me to quit all apps, yes, ive done that, the only thing that is running is finder.Is there any easy way of finding out what is open on the external drive before I just pull the plug on the whole thing!?

Software :: DVD Disk Won't Eject?

Sep 16, 2010

I put a DVD disk in and can't eject it. I get the eject icon on the screen but nothing happens. How can I get the disk out?

The DVD disk was recorded on my HardDisk Recorder (downstairs) from cable TV. The format is VR mode. That's the HDR recording mode here in Japan when recording from cable. Usually if I try a HDR DVD disk in my Mac it usually ejects easily.

Mac Mini :: Won't Boot Or Eject CD Due To REFIt

Aug 20, 2009

Long story short, I wanted my Mini to dual boot Ubuntu 9.04 and OSX, and the guides I was finding said to use rEFIt. This worked fine until I allowed Ubuntu to install a bunch of updates, which must have done something to my partition table, as now I can no longer boot OSX or Ubuntu, and the CD I stuck in there won't eject either (so I can't get my OSX install disc to even load). Is there a rEFIt command from the shell I can run to eject the disc and try getting my OSX install disc in there?

Really stuck - When I cold boot, rEFIt gives me choices of OSX or Ubuntu, both just spin and die during boot. Tried holding space bar, c key, option key, left mouse, all on cold boot and upon selecting OSX option from rEFIt menu, no luck getting disc to eject. I followed the guide here: [URL] Did I do something wrong when I let Ubuntu 9.04 self-update? It REALLY seems to have screwed up my partition setup.
