Help! How can I take out the mini-disc stuck in mac?

Help! How can I take out the mini-disc stuck in mac?
I insert it into the mac, but the OS cannot load the disc and the disc cannot be ejected even i pressed the "eject" button.

This happened to a family members macbookpro. A mini-cd inserted, couldn't be mounted or ejected by the drive.
I cut a rectangle from a cereal box about two inches wide and 6 inches long. Abour an inch and half from one end in the middle I cut a notch and bent it down a little.

I then inserted it slowly into the drive notch down and slowly pulled out. I did this few times and caught the mimi-cd and removed it. The drive has worked flawlessly for several years
A few days after this happened I was in BestBuy and an Apple rep was there displaying new Apple products. I asked him about it and he said they have a tool that ***** it out.

    Start by removing the inline styles from your HTML code.  You've got quite a few of them.
    <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #000000; font-size: 20px;"></span>
    CSS styles belong in your style sheet.

  • I need to get photos off a water damaged iPhone 3GS. Can I take out the component that has the photos (is this the main board?) and put it into another of the same phone to retrieve the photos? Please help

    I need to get photos off a water damaged iPhone 3GS. It spent time underwater, saltwater. I let it dry for a week, turned it on, the apple symbol came on, then it died. I need to retrieve my photos off it. Can I take out the component that has the photos (is this the main board?) and put it into another of the same phone to retrieve the photos? Please help

    You're talking about the logic board. The two most likely things to get toasted, with water damage, are the battery(it shorts out), & the logic board. The worst water damage would be salt water. I'm afraid your logic board is toast.

  • How can I take out all my HealthVault data?

    As titled, how can I take out all my HealthVault data?

    Hi,
    I'm assuming by "take out" you mean you want to save copies of your data to keep outside of HealthVault.
    In general, you want to use the Export feature. Find it by going to the Health Information page, then in the "More actions" menu, choose "Export information." If you're trying to send the data to another system, then you'll probably want to choose CCD or
    CCR format. If you are keeping records for yourself, HTML would be the human-readable format. The different formats behave differently, so I'd recommend checking that the exported file contains the data you want.
    After you export, then you'll want to go into the Files section of the Health Information page and download the files you want to keep. This will be especially important for files that came from a doctor, hospital, pharmacy, or lab.
    If you want to close your HealthVault account, make sure you've got all the data you want before you close the account. By the way, if by "take out" the data you meant "delete" the data, when you close your account the data will be deleted from HealthVault
    as per the Privacy Statement.
    Hope this helps,
    Kathy

  • How can i find out the resolution and accuracy of PXI-6602 module?

    I have a 32 bit  8 channel PXI-6602 counter module.  PXI card is interfaced to PC with MXI-4 link. How can i find out the resolution and accuracy of this system.What is the maximum accuracy and resolution i will get from this system. Because optical signal to cmos conversion signal is given as a input to the counter.

    Hi chandhu,
    Were you referring to the accuracy of the count register or the timing clock? 
    PXI-6602 specifications can be found in the NI 660x Specifications.  The resolution of the count register is, as you’ve noted, 32 bits.  This corresponds to a maximum count value of 4,294,967,295.  As long as all of the edges are in accordance with TTL specifications, the accuracy of the count register is 100%.
    On the other hand, the PXI-6602 baseclock accuracy takes on the baseclock accuracy of the PXI CLK 10 signal.  Again, this is all found in the specifications.
    You may also want to check out the NI 660x User Manual – it contains a lot of details on the operation of these counter/timer devices.
    I hope this helps.  Please post back if you have further questions.

  • How can we find out the datasourse is having Beforeimage&afterimage in R/3

    Hi Guru's,
         This is Surendra,i have a doubt like' how can we find out the particular datasourse is having before image and after image in R/3 side before we are going to extract the data from R/3 to BW'.Can any body help me in this scenario.
    thanks in advance,
    Thanks&regards
    Surendra.

    Hi,
    Let  me explain it with a DS:
    So lets take DS 2LIS_13_VDITM
    So logon to R/3 -> Se11->Database table = ROOSOURCE>click on Disply->click on contents (CTRLSHIFTF10) -->mantion Datasource = 2LIS_13_VDITM.
    and OLPTSrc Version = D.
    And see the value for the field <i>Delta Process for a DataSource</i> (DELTA) .Here we get ABR as the value for the field.
    And also you can find all available values for DELTA field.
    With rgds,
