I have a disk inserted into my MAC that is not showing up in the Finder side bar. How do I eject it?
I have a disk inserted into my MacBook Pro that is not showing up in the Finder side bar. How can I get it "ejected?" (I've checked in system preferences under CDs & DVDs and did not find a solution.)
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.

i purchased 2 books for my iPad and they downloaded successfully. They show up in iTunes when my iPad is connected to my Mac but do not show up on the Mac. Is this a synch issue? When I click the Synch box I am warned that downloads on my iPad will be erased. Is that true? My ultimate goad is to be able to read the books on my iPhone as well. Thanks.
You should be able to copy them to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases and you can then sync them to the iPhone (or you could re-download them directly on the iPhone)

I have an app that does not show up on the left under iTunes. How do I delete it?
I have an app that does not show up on the left under iTunes. How do I delete it from my Iphone 5?
If the icon exists on your screen, just do a long press on that icon and when the small X appears on top of the app, press it and it will delete it. As long as this is not an Apple app, since those cannot be deleted.

I would like to have a storage solution that is accessed wirelessly, can be accessed remotely and is viewable in the finder side bar (mavericks)
Is this possible? if so, how? Thanks in advance
IniYou have to pay for online storage, someone has to pay to keep the lights on. As far a getting it on the Finder sidebar, you did something wrong. That is where mine resides, see below.

I purchased a Mac OS x 10.9 in December. When using Mac Mail i get thousands of incoming mails that do not show up on my computer. Does anyone have any idea what is going on? this sure never happened on my old mac. i have three email accounts. gmail, verizon and hotmail.
I posted the same question a day ago with no response. I'm using an Acer x193w. You actually don't have to switch monitors to get it to work. Just make sure you turn off the monitor after shutting down the Mac mini (actually push the power button on the monitor, not just let it go to sleep). If you turn on the monitor (push the power button on the monitor), then power up the Mac mini, the monitor is recognized. The issue didnt exist with Snow Leopard for me. It only started after I started using Lion. Hope this issue gets fixed In a future OS update.

I have rented a movie through ITUNES, but it does not show up on my ATV movies menu as they have in the past in a category called rentals. In fact that category isn't shown. My purchased movies are showing up. What's up?
Bindlach61A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals. -
On iTunes, my library says that I have a lot of songs on my device that do not show up on my actual iPod touch. These songs disappeared from my iPod when I plugged it in, then they showed back up, but with a red square and circle, and now, after syncing and autofilling, they are gone again. How do I get these songs from my iTunes "ON MY DEVICE" library to my actual device?

Red square in red circle cannot play songs
My iPod isn't playing certain songs. Help? -

<Personal Information Edited by Host>Sorry if this seems negative but you really should post such a question in the iPhone section of Apple Communities. You are much more likely to get expert help there immediately.
Just re-post with the same detail. -
I have a ringtone that is not showing up in the voicemail list in settings?
IOS5 Iphone 4
I have a ringtone that I would like to have a as a ringtone when someone leaves a new voicemail message.
The ringtone is installed on the iphone. I can select it as a ringtone for phone calls in settings........ no problem.....
But when I go to settings on the iphone, the "new voicemail" ringtone option, the one ringtone that I want to use does not show up in the list.
All of my other ringtones are available accept the one I want to use? I have a total of 6 custom ringtones. 5 show up in "new Voicemail" drop down...Here are the steps, from an Apple note. You said the eject key didn't work and there was nothing to drag to the trash ....
Try to eject discs using the F12 or eject key on the keyboard.
If the disc will not eject try dragging the disc icon to the trash.
If the disc will still not eject, holding down the trackpad or mouse button after restarting the computer should also eject a disc.
If the disc continues not to eject, reset the System Management Controller (SMC) and try steps 1-3 again.
If the disc still does not eject, for additional troubleshooting, evaluation, or service pleasecontact Apple, contact an Apple Authorized Service Provider, or make an appointment with anApple Retail Store. -
Why is my WD My Book for Mac not showing up on the finder after installing Mavericks?
I recently upgraded to Mavericks. I have a WD My Book. I had received emails from WD stating that the software from WD had to be removed from the Mac before installing Mavericks. So I waited until I received an email from WD saying they had resolved the issue. I upgraded to Mavericks and used the new Drive Manager and SmartWare software from WD. The software (WD) recognizes my iMac, but the WD My Book does not appear through their software or in the Finder on my iMac.
I've called WD twice and it seems they have no idea what to do. They replied with an email for software to recover my files. But I can't even see the files on the My Book drive to recover them. Is this a Mavericks issue? Do I need to download something from Apple? I don't think the issue is to recover files. It's just that the iMac is not recognizing the drive at all.
Help!
Thanks,
Jose.WD new software and firmware is having serious issues.

HT1386 I have one album on my IPod Touch that does not show up on ITunes.
I am trying to download my music to the libraries on my computer. I noticed that one of my albums is not showing on ITunes but is showing up on my IPod.
No problem. Glad to have helped.
Not sure as to why it happened. I just know this has been happening to a few users lately. It may be with how you have your iPod touch configured to sync Podcasts. So you may want to double check these settings as well as mess around with them a bit to figure out if that is the cause. Otherwise, I'm not entirely sure on this one. Sorry I cannot be of much help here.
