2 dvds inserted into drive. i can't get them out! any ideas?

My daughter inserted 2 dvds into the drive and the computer is trying to eject them, but they are stuck! any suggestions? can't find any advice on the apple website. thanks!

Restart, holding down the mouse button. If that doesn't do the trick, then a trip to an Apples repair station is in order.

    If you can wrap some adhesive tape around a stiff business card and insert it inside and see if you can capture it.  If possible, hold the MBP in a position where gravity is your ally.
    You can open the MBP up, remove the optical drive and open it up or make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and have them extract it.

    I'm sorry, I'm lost & don't even know what to ask.
    Oh wait, open Dashboard in Applications, do the Pics show there?

  • They can't hear me and I can't hear them. Any ideas?

    I have replaced my Iphone 4S and still having speaker issues. They can't hear me and i can't hear them!
    Any help. Just about ready to return phone.

    First try inserting and removing the earphone plug several times. Sometimes lint gets in through the jack and prevents the contacts from closing when you remove the plug.
    Next step would be a Reset if that doesn't fix it; hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons for about 8 seconds, until the Apple logo appears (ignore the "slide to power off" display and keep holding).
    After that a Restore through iTunes. If all of these don't fix it take it back for replacement.

  • I have a DVD stuck in the drive, how can i get it out

    how can i get a disc that is stuck in my drive out?

    Restart. Hold down the mouse or trackpad button at the chime until the disc ejects. If that doesn't work, it's physically stuck.

  • HT5085 I have purchases (music )that is on ipad and plays but is not in ibary on pc as I changed hard drives - how can i get them back to libary to play on pc and sync ipad without losing them ?

    I have purchased music that is on ipad and plays but is not in libary on pc as i cleared hard drive to portable backup ?how can i get back ? and sync ipad without losing it al ?

    SADLY  not as i downloaded an upgrad to my original PAGES/
    i have in the meantim had to open www.icloud. then from there import the file that i am working on and then check on ipad if it uploaded/ yes it did.
    but what a waste of time as it doesn not save any changes done automatically back in the cloud....
    i am now downloading the new LION and hope that it will fix the problem
    i cant find any other way. I was lead to believe that you wrote, it saved automatically, on to the cloud, you then opened anohter device in anotother country even, and the new file was there, waiting, in its latest version.......
    and the same magic was supposed to happen in reverse.
    It doesn't/
    if i have to open a browser, go to www.icloud....why on earth did they not just leave us an icon to drop it in in that case?
    I hope the new lion will help resolve the isssue/
    any other ideas> keep em coming...thank you so much.

  • I cannot access any songs on my iPod classic. I had around 20,000 songs on it and it now says I have 12,00o but can't access them. Any idea why this has happened?

    I cannot plug it into iTunes and reload as my MacBook crashed a few days ago and I had to get a new hard drive. Recovery software is unable to retrieve anything from the hard drive.
    All the songs were from CDs so not saved in iTunes.
    The iPod was last plugged into the MacBook one day before it crashed and it was Ok when I ejected it.
    Could it be anything to do with this? Doesn't an iPod have its own memory? Any ideas why it has happened and if their is anyway of retrieving it? Is it best to just take it into an apple shop? I am no longer covered with apple support.
    Thanks.

    When I hover over cover flow it says I have 12851 songs but when I click nothing happens.
    When I hover over artists or albums it says 'no artists/albums'.
    I can upload again from my CDs but just wondering if there is anything to do. I live abroad so all my CDs are in storage.

  • Accidentally put documents in Applications folder, can't get them out

    In Finder I accidentally moved a folder with two Word documents from the Desktop to the Applications folder. I can't move them back out. When I try, I get pointers to the documents in the Applications folder. I can delete the folder, but then the documents are gone.
    Suggestions for undoing this welcome. (I should have tried "Undo" early on.)

    Hold down the Command key when you drop it. You should see the badge disappear when you hold down the key. That indicates it will move as opposed to making an alias (default) and making a copy (Option key).

  • TS3367 I'm having trouble making Facetime calls with my iphone 4s.  I can receive them; however, I can not make them.  Any ideas of how to fix this? PLEASE HELP!!!  Thank you!

    I am having a problem making phone calls using Facetime.  I was able to use it on two separate occassions; however, now I can not.  I can receive calls, but can not make them.  Not sure what to do.  Any ideas?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you VERY much!

    There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having problems with iMessage.   There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
    I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.

  • DVD Stuck In Drive And Can't Get Passed The Gray Page.

    The disk is stuck in my 3 and 1/2 month old new mac book pro mid 2010. And it is also stuck on the gray start up page. The wheel under the apple will spin for awhile and then I get a message to turn the power off and restart. I have tried several times but the same thing keeps happening. Have tried recommend ways to eject the disk. Does not help. Is there anything else I can do ?

    If you have tried all the commonly recommended ways of extracting the disc, take the machine in for service under your warranty, and be sure to have it noted that there's a disc in the drive that you need back (so it won't get separated from the machine after it's removed).

  • Replaced hard drive - now can not install an OS - any ideas?

    That's right. The iMac was given to me and the "giver" did not give me any CDs etc. (very old iMac).
    Anyway, the hard drive was bad, so I replaced it along with 512 of RAM.
    I am unable to install any OS because all my OS X versions are upgrades. I just want to see if the thing will work worth anything with OS X before I keep it.
    I bet I'm stuck aren't I?

    If UR looking for original Cd's - check out your local "quokka' mag - you know, the one that has all the for sale items - furniture, whitegoods, computers etc - here in Perth Australia we have teh 'Quokka'. Anyway,try all the 'imacs for sale' contacts until you find either someone who has original CD's for sale - this could be someone who gets bulk intakes of 2nd hand computers - PC and/or Mac - often they get shipmetns of @nd hand computers form schools and the original software Cd's as well- you could pick up a bargain?!
    What colour is your iMac?? Apple has a chart to distinguish it's computer series on its info base - I think (hang on and I'll go find it for U) ...... ah, here it is - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58669 - will help a little bit in differentiating between models.
    Look, Mr Singitloud-in-the-shower, these G3 iMacs are great little beasts - I just love them - even at 55 - and today I've pulled my first one apart - but it's a scrap piece with the CDRW and HD already scavenged - but it's my learn-on machine - now I just need to find where on the web you can find reliable fix-it info so I can learn more repair ideas.
