Try ejecting the disc from your Disc Utility program, which can be found in the application folder.

  • Unable to connect to airport after downloading latest iTunes upgrade

    Having downloaded the latest version of iTunes I am no longer able to connect it with my Airport. The error that appears on the screen is as follows - "An unknown error occurred (-3256)". Is this a common problem? What steps do i need to take to repair this?

    I have the same issue. I'm using the latest firmware and even tried resetting my airport express but problem did not go away. Currently I'm streaming using Airfoil/iTunes as a workaround.

  • Unable to eject DVD after Win7 upgrade on Satellite L series

    I have finished the windows 7 upgrade.
    Everything went smoothly except thta at the end I was unable to eject the windows 7 upgrade DVD.
    Using the push button on it, or right click on the lector then eject, nothing happens.
    Should I look for drivers and where?

    Hi
    You dont need any drivers for that
    If the CD/DVD drive is connected properly then you should be able to eject the disk without any big troubles maybe something clams somewhere
    There is a tiny hole near the eject button use an small object like staple or something like that and put it carefully into this small hole. This should help to eject the disk.
    Cheers

  • A dvd is stuck in my MacBook Pro, and I am unable to eject it.

    I recently used my MacBook Pro to watch a dvd, and I am unable to eject it.  Has anyone else had this experience, and can offer a solution that doesn't require a $29 visit to the Genius Bar?

    Five ways to eject a stuck CD or DVD from the optical drive
    Ejecting the stuck disc can usually be done in one of the following ways:
      1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
          left mouse button until the disc ejects.
      2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
      3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.
      4. Press COMMAND-E.
      5. If none of the above work try this: Open the Terminal application in
          your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following:
            /usr/bin/drutil eject
    If this fails then try this:
    Boot the computer into Single-user Mode. At the prompt enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes.

  • Unable to Eject Garmin GPS from MacBook

    After connecting my Garmin GPS 62SC to my MacBook to acquire updates on-line, I am unable to eject because the camera within the GPS is re-recognized by the MacBook as soon as it is ejected.

    What about changing the way iPhoto sees the GPS? Do this in iPhoto Preferences / General.
    The options for "Connecting camera opens:" include No application.
    The downside is that if you do connect a regular camera you will have to do some work.

    If the external drive doesn't show up then you have a problem. Try unplugging the drive then replugging it. See if the drive is recognized (and possibly the disc in it.) If the drive is functional:

  • Cannot eject ext HD after Frontrow

    Whenever I use Frontrow to play a movie from my external hard disk (I placed an alias of the folder in the external HD to the Movies folder), I found that I am unable to eject the external HD even after getting out of Frontrow.
    I get a message that the external HD is in use and cannot be ejected.
    Anyway I could eject the HD without having to restart the computer?
    Thanks

    Invoke Front Row and hit cmd-option-esc.
    This will actually quit Front Row (instead of having it just fade to a background process). Can you then eject the disk?
    If not, then it might be getting indexed by Spotlight. If so, then that sounds like a bug in Front Row.

    Hi iTunes-1,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  The error message you posted indicates a possible firmware update is needed for iTunes for Windows to work with your CD drive.  
    iTunes for Windows: Updating the firmware on your CD or DVD drive - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201852
    Having outdated firmware can cause issues using CDs and DVDs with iTunes for Windows. Firmware is a type of software stored in a chip in hardware that can sometimes be updated.Identifying drives and firmware versions
    To run CD Diagnostics, follow the steps in this document.
    After following the steps to run CD Diagnostics linked above, look at section three to find out more about your optical drive(s).
    Here is an example of what section three might look like:
    In this example there are two drives. Drive E is a Samsung DVD-ROM drive with a model designation of SD-616 that has firmware version F000. Drive F is an NEC drive with a model designation of NR-7900A that has firmware version 1.08.Updating the firmware
    If the optical drive you are using came with your computer, check with the support site for your computer for a firmware update. Typically you will need to go to the support website for the computer maker and click on a "downloads" or "updates" link, and then enter your computer model designation and operating system version to see what updates are available. Then look through the available updates for a firmware update for your optical drive. Download the updater and run it. If you need assistance applying the update, contact the maker of your computer.
    If the optical drive you are using came as a separate part (was not included with a computer), check the support site for the drive maker for a firmware update. Sometimes the manufacturer is not clear in the CD Diagnostics results. In that case, you may just have to search the Internet for the drive model designation. You can usually find out who made the drive by looking through the results of such a search. Once you have identified who made your drive, go to the support website for that company. Look for a "downloads" or "updates" link, and then enter your optical drive model designation. Download the updater and run it. If you need assistance applying the update, contact the maker of the optical drive.Verifying that the firmware was updated
    Run CD Diagnostics again.
    Examine the CD Diagnostics results. The firmware version for the drive should be the new version.

    Also, you mentioned that you have been successful burning a CD with the Windows OS.  Make sure that you have closed all software programs that can access the CD burner so that there isn't a conflict for the drive.   Sometimes chaning the burn speed from "maximum" to 8x can also help in this situation.
    I hope this information helps ...

  • I am trying to install a language disc. I clicked on the installer. It ran for a long time without installing. I click stop installing and it says it is stopping but is doing nothing. I am unable to eject the disc or stop anything.

    I am trying to install a Portugese language disc. I clicked on the installer icon and it said it was installing, but it ran forever without doing anything. I clicked "stop installing" and it says "stopping", but it is doing nothing. I am unable to eject the disc or do anything because it says an operation is in progress.

    Please provide some info on the disc, where it comes from, who made it, etc.  Also tell us what version of OS X you are running.

  • Using an early 2011 15 inch macbook pro to watch a rented dvd. the screen displayed a skipping over damaged section message, then the dvd froze. first unable to eject the dvd, now it can't be inserted. Hardware prblm? reset the superdrive?

    I was viewing a rented dvd when a "skipping damaged area" message was shown and then the dvd froze. At first I was unable to eject the dvd with the eject botton though the superdrive made "ejecting" noises, and followed the cue "finder using dvd" and ejected it. Now the drive will not accept any dvds. Does this sound like a hardaware problem, or is it possible that some sort of "reset" needs to take place?

    Before wasting your time heading to your local Apple Store, try resetting your SMC.  It doesn't work all the time, but sometimes it's just the thing to save you time.

  • Do not seem to be able to backup iPad via iTunes on to my PC. Message after connecting is "iTunes was unable to load class information from Sync Services, Reconnect or try later"  Have tried that but get the same result. Can anyone assist?

    Do not seem to be able to backup iPad via iTunes on to my PC.
    Message after connecting is "iTunes was unable to load class information from Sync Services, Reconnect or try later" 
    Have tried that but get the same result.
    Remedies I've tried are:
    wait and try again
    reboot
    reload iTunes
    NB hp is a relatively new machine and has previously backed up quite happily.
    Can anyone assist?

    RHoodnkt-
    Try rebooting the iPad.  Hold down both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow.  It takes a minute or two to restart.
    Also be sure your iPad battery is not completely discharged.

  • After upgrading to iTunes 9.2, unable to type in text/search fields

    Hi,
    After upgrading to iTunes 9.2, I am unable to type into text or search fields within iTunes.
    Haven't tried all fields, but I've seen it in both search in iTunes and the iTunes store, and also trying to create folders on my iPhone (through iTunes only, it works fine on the phone).
    Anyone else seen this or have an idea for a fix?
    Thanks...

    I'm wondering if you figured out this problem. I'm having the exact same issue, which means I can't even log in to my iTunes account. I've even tried uninstalling it and reverting to iTunes 9.1.1, which then won't even open.

  • HT1937 I tried to update software on my Iphone 3 from Itunes after i managed to sync phone to laptop but then i had a message (error 1015) after completing saying itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode, i am now unable to do anything with my phone

    You generally get that error code on a jailbroken phone ?
    If it is Jailbroken then I am afraid you will get no help here.

  • Unable to Connect to WiFi after iPhone power off; WiFi & internet are working with MBP; common problem, no solutions?

    Here's my setup: Internet <> Comcast/xFinity supplied cable modem <> new Apple Time Capsule <> iPhone 4 & MacBook Pro (see below for hardware details)
    Internet on my iPhone 4 has been acting slow since yesterday evening. My MacBook Pro was running fine, but just to be sure I checked the Comcast website to see that I have only used 50GB of my allotted 250 GB of data for the month, so it's not that.
    I decided it must be a problem with just my iPhone, so I opened up the multitasking bar and quit everything in there manually, and then I held the on/off button, and slid the slider to power off. When I started back up, I could not connect to the same WiFi I had just been using. I tried to reconnect and nothing. I tried to forget the network and try again, nothing. I tried to reset all network settings, nothing.
    I have tried all the steps listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398 "iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections"
    Toggled WiFi off and back on
    Made sure I am in range of the router (it's about 8 feet away and my iPhone reports full signal from the network)
    Made sure all the hardware is connected and on
    Checked other devices (I'm successfully connected with my MacBook Pro right now)
    Checked for router firmware upgrades (I have a new Time Capsule from Apple with the current 7.5.2 firmware which I've been using for a month)
    Restarted my device (again)
    Checked that the network is available (it does show on my iPhone)
    Restarted my Time Capsule
    Checked my router configuration as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3727 "Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network" which involves simply checking to see that WMM is turned on, also stating that WMM cannot be enabled or disabled for Apple's AirPort products.
    Reset my network settings (again)
    I have searched and searched for fixes to this problem, and I have additionally tried:
    Enabling/disabling Airplane Mode
    Disabling any network password protection/encryption (no luck), re-enabling it (no luck)
    Changing the network password
    Checking for hardware addresses present in iOS Settings > General > About (they are present and not zero'ed out)
    Switching Bluetooth off (nothing) and back on (nothing)
    ....and probably a few other things I can't think of right now
    I have yet to try:
    The "Freezer Trick" which apparently involves chilling the iPhone to get a temporary fix?
    Restoring the iPhone (I would really rather not)
    A different WiFi network (other than my own Time Capsule home network or guest network, both of which give the same Unable to Connect error)
    So, after all of that, are there any more ideas? Is there a reliable solution to this issue? So far I've just seen a lot of "mess with the settings," "the freezer trick worked," and "blame it on the iOS 4 update."
    Here are my hardware details:
    iPhone 4; iOS 5; 32GB; AT&T; no cellular data plan (July 2011)
    TimeCapsule6,113; Firmware 7.5.2; 2TB (September 2011)
    MacBook Pro 3,1; Mac OS X (10.7.2); 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; Hi-Res Display; 4GB RAM; 500GB HD (August 2007)
    ...and the Time Capsule config:
    http://cl.ly/BCUt

    Ugh. Apparently "messing with it" is still the answer. I decided to try the LinkSys router I was using before I bought the Time Capsule, and my iPhone connected with no problem.
    I went through the steps again, and after rebooting my Time Capsule this time, I can connect again. The troubling thing it that this started with a power-off of my iPhone. No changes or installations, just a reset. Am I going to have to reboot my Time Capsule (which has no power switch, just a cord I have to unplug) every time I reboot my iPhone?
    Jinkies.
