Duh, put a 3" CD into the the drive. Didn't need to, but . . . .
It does not show on the desktop,
or in Disk Utility.
How can it be ejected?
Thanks!

Your user manual states you cannot put mini-discs in the optical drive. You might try turning the computer on its side and shake out the disc. Otherwise, if it's a slot loader you will need to take it in for disassembly in order to remove the disc without damaging the optical drive.
If it's a tray loader you might try the following:
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.

when i move a clip into the top project screen, it cuts off about an inch of video. im trying to make a chin face video so i need that inch. any help?
1) Make sure that your project is in the same aspect ratio as your camera. If your camera shoots 16:9. make a 16:9 project.
2) Check the clip inspector for the clip in your project to see if Image Stabilization is turned on. Stabilization works by zooming in, so you may want to turn it off. -

I recently got a Dynex 32 inch tv because it got good reviews online and because it was advertised as being able to connect to computers with an HDMI cable. I have a Macbook Pro laptop from early 2011. I bought the HDMI cable and the HDMI to displayport converter. When everything is connected, the option to connect to the tv is present, but not clickable. I tried changing the screen settings, resolution, turning the computer off and on again (same with tv). I also have the display on my computer set to mirror. Nothing works. When the computer either turns on or I plug in the cord, the computer screen goes blue for a moment, and then nothing changes, and the TV still says "so signal." Does anyone know how to fix this?
Hi mo8333
Have you tried changing the input on the television to the corresponding HDMI?

HDMI CABLE BETWEEN LAPTOP AND TV WILL NOT WORK HELPPLEASE!!
I wanted to watch hockey from my laptop on the tv but i get nothing when i hook the cable. Is there something that has to be set or turned on??
I bought the computer about a year ago so it is not old. The computer is a; Dell Inspiron 1525 and the TV is a; Visio 42 inch
Any help will make me happy, Thank you, Mike {Removed per Forum Guidelines}Majority of laptops are going to have a default setting of outputting video just to the display. You actually have to tell the laptop to display images out of the HDMI rather than it's screen. This is usually done by holding the "Function Key" down and cycling thru the video output options. The "function" or "fn" key can be located in the lower left hand portion of your keyboard next to the "ctrl" button your video options are typically worked in with your F1 - F12 bottons at the top of your keyboard. Your "FN" key will most likely be a different color than the rest of the keyboard hold this down while searching for your video output key (once again in you F1 - F12 keys) it will have a monitor logo that should be the same color as the "FN" key. Keep holding the "FN" key down and tap the video output key to cycle thru all the options until you find the right one.

Illustrator CS6 keyboard increment
I cannot set it to .0001 inch, when I do, it automatically changes it to .0002 inch, please help me. I've been able to have a nudge factor of .0001 inch since I can remember.
Tom
The two images I'm including show my .0001 being typed, then when I switch fields it shows it going to .0002, why won't it stay on .0001 inch?I was just on the phone with Adobe about this, they informed me that .0002" is the minimum nudge with CS6.
This is totally a downgrade as opposed to a upgrade, I've always been able to make my keyboard increment to .0001" until now. Guess I'll stick with CS5. -

I have a late-2011 13-inch MacBook Pro running OS X Yosemite. (Standard configuration).
My problem is that I downloaded a fan control application and it worked perfectly, but it started to get annoying so I deleted it.
Does anyone know how to reset the fan speed back to factory settings (Maybe a command in terminal?)Hello damo1177,

I am working on a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2009) with boot camp running Windows 7 pro 64-bit. Windows crashes quite often now-a-days and I need to get this fixed. I heard that updating boot camp can help. Currently I am running Version 3.0.4 (322).
Only Apple could hamstring and tie Mac OS to Windows. There isn't any other than whether you can download the drivers into Windows (you can) but Apple puts a block on the installer setup even if your mac does not support it.
Windows 7 needs at least Boot Camp 3.1 and 3.3 is what you should already have. And you are not getting security updates if you don't have at least 10.6.8 as was pointed out. --- you arent using Software Update as you should. And you should backup and clone Mac (and Windows) as well.
You need Mountain Lion to use Boot Camp 5.x which supports Windows 7 & 8 and 64-bit.
I would upgrade to Lion if you can realizing that Rosetta and PowerPC are no longer supported though.

Is there a download of the Boot Camp 5 Support Software if I'm not using OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.3?
Yes, you can download the Boot Camp 5 Support Software here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1638
How do I use the Boot Camp 5 Support Software I downloaded from the web page?
The download file is a .zip file. Double click it to uncompress it.
Double-click the Boot Camp disk image.
Copy the Boot Camp and "$WinPEDriver$" folders to the root level of a USB flash drive or hard drive that is formatted with the FAT file system (see question below for steps on how to format).
Install Windows, leaving the flash or hard drive attached to the USB port of your Mac.
Installation of the drivers can take a few minutes. Don't interrupt the installation process. A completion dialog box will appear when everything is installed. Click Finish when the dialog appears.
When your system restarts your Windows 8 installation is done.
Note: If the flash drive or hard drive was not attached when you installed Windows and was inserted after restarting into Windows 8, double-click the Boot Camp folder, then locate and double click the "setup.exe" file to start the installation of the Boot Camp 5 Support Software.
How do I format USB media to the FAT file system?
Use Disk Utility to format a disk to use with a Windows computer. Here's how:
Important: Formatting a disk erases all the files on it. Copy any files you want to save to another disk before formatting the disk.
Open Disk Utility.
Select the disk you want to format for use with Windows computers.
Click Erase, and choose one of the following from the Format pop-up menu:
If the size of the disk is 32 GB or less, choose MS-DOS (FAT).
If the size of the disk is over 32 GB, choose ExFAT.
Type a name for the disk. The maximum length is 11 characters.
Click the Erase button and then click Erase again.
Which versions of Windows are supported with Boot Camp 5?
64-bit versions of Windows 8 and Windows 7 are supported using the Boot Camp 5 Support Software. If you need to use a 32-bit version, you need to use Boot Camp 4 Support Software, and you must use Windows 7. 32-bit versions of Windows 8 are not supported via Boot Camp.

Dear friends
I had brought this Mac book pro 15 inch retinal display and windows 8.1 and then I left to India my home place for vacation now my problem is during flight transit at Paris CDG. For flight change. My luggage got lost and I had to leave for India. On reaching I waited for 6 days daily going to the Mumbai airport and enquiry but now I am stuck I can't work using windows software s for designing engg.
Can someone tell me a better way how can I install windows if I don't have the driver CDs?
Thanks in advance. Sb sob sob
Pl. help. ThanksReinstall OSX using the online recovery.
Then use Boot Camp Assistant. One of the Boot Camp Assistant menu items is download the Windows Support Software (drivers). Make sure you follow the Boot Camp instructions.
Or, Reinstall OSX using the online recovery.
Then install a virtual machine like Parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox. Then install Windows in the virtual machine.
You can use either Boot Camp or a virtual machine to install Windows. Neither method requires any driver cds. -

MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2011) It turns on for less than 60 sec thens shutsoff by itself, it won't load to recovery hd partition, won't load to mac OS and already replaced with new MLB, but the problem still persist.. able to run ASD EFI but ASD OS wont work.please help thanks in advance
Holy crap, I got it to work.
Essentially, I just waited until DiskWarrior reached Step 9 and told it to skip the step before it had a chance to freeze. It skipped successfully, moved on, rebuilt and replaced the faulty directory files.
So far the computer is booting like normal, I can log in, and I'm currently copying all of the data to an external as I type this.
I still have no idea why the computer wouldn't mount or boot to any drive, but I guess I'll deal with that later. -
