Can i introduce a mini disc into the cd slot.

I need to install a router which comes with a mini disc. Will the mini disc work ? can I put the mini disc into the slot? will it get stuck?

NO you can't use it in the Apple optical SuperDrive and, YES, it would likely get stuck.
You really need an external drive with a tray, rather than a slot loading optical drive.
Sorry,

  • Can I safely insert a 3 1/8" mini disc into the drive slot?

    Please advise.

    Someone at my house inserted such a minidisk into the CD drive on my MBP.
    Darn right, it does not mount, btw.
    Anyone got any ideas or advice on how to get the mini OUT of the drive. The slot on the computer has those fuzzy fringes, makes it hard to see inside.
    Thanks.

  • Can I put a mini DVD into my Mac?

    I am trying to transfer my home movies onto my Mac from mini dvds.is it ok to put these mini dvds into the Mac slot??

    Do not do that!!!!!!!!!! The user's manual expressly warns you not to insert anything but standard sized CDs and DVDs. Mini discs will get stuck and not eject.

  • Can't insert a CD/DVD into the disc drive.  Recently installed a new harddrive, and the CD/DVD drive hardware is no longer recognized. Also, with new harddrive,  OS was updated from Snow Leopard to Mt. Lion 10.8.5 on late 2007 MBP.

    Also, when I check out the hardware list, under Disc Burning - the following is reported:  No disc burning device was found. If the device is external, make sure it’s connected and turned on.
    The disc drive worked fine prior to the HD upgrade and OS update to Mt. Lion.

    I've had my mac for less than a month and for the first time I put in a disc. I can hear a laser sort of noise as well as the disc flapping about or a motor sort of sound? Sounds really bad to me :/
    Someone please help!

    Sounds like a hardware issue.
    Did you buy the system from Apple? If so how recent is recent?  If it is new you have 14 days to return it, not sure what the situation is with refurb systems. If it is over 14 days you should still have warranty support make an appointment at an Apple Store or contact Apple support.
    If you bought it from someone other then Apple you will need to contact them.
    good luck
    regards

    Sounds like to me that you have a bootcamp partition with Windows and have the default Windows to boot first.
    I think there is a Windows Control Panel or other setting while your in Windows to set the OS X as the first boot option.
    Also in OS X there is a option under the System Preferences to set OS X as the first boot option.

    Ask the Verizon store to exchange your iPhone for a different iPhone 4.
    UPDATE - Sure, try ckuan's solution first.  Then use mine if that fails.

  • I am trying to get space on an external hard drive which has some old time machine back up files that I do not need but can not eliminate, even by going into the time machine, clicking on the backup file to be eliminated and using the drop down eliminate

    I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
    You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots.  Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
    See Pondini's page for more explanation:   What are Local Snapshots?   http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
    I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
    You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.  
    The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library.  Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots.

  • Ok, so I transferred my 3S info to my 4S by restoring from an old phone backup.  But SIRI is gone and god knows what else??  Can I get my old stuff into the new phone and keep the 4S new functionality?

    I suspect unless he had some items in iCloud backup then they are gone.  Connecting an iPhone to a different library from that to which it was previously connected will result in the device asking if you want to erase it.

  • Videos I burnt to disc on my pc won't play on my macbook, when I insert the disc into the macbook it says it's blank but plays fine on the pc

    Videos I burnt to disc on my pc won't play on my macbook, when I insert the disc into the macbook it says it's blank but plays fine on the pc, does anyone know how to fix this?  The photo's I burnt on the exact same type of disc work fine in both pc and macbook but the videos will only play on the pc.

    If you are trying to play these on quicktime then what video format are those videos?
    Wmp's?  You need to install Flip4Mac. 
    Most other formats?  Install Perian.
    Or just use vlc instead.  It's a much better, more powerful, and more general video player.

  • How can I embed a pdf file into the body of an email?

    How can I embed a pdf file into the body of an email?

    The problem is defining what it even means to “embed” a PDF file in the body of an e-mail, especially if you are dealing with a multiple page PDF file.
    E-mail is either pure text, rich text (something akin to RTF in Word), or HTML. PDF is not compatible with any of these. Thus, to embed a PDF file, something has to be converted and that means the PDF would be converted to a less graphically rich raster format. But is that what you would really want?
    I think that the MacOS and iOS e-mail clients do under some circumstances place an attached PDF file within HTML segments and by clicking on same, you get the equivalent of extracting the full PDF file, but I have no real experience with that.
    Another alternative is HTML with a proxy image with a hyperlink to an external PDF file that is invoked when you click on the hyperlink.
    Perhaps you can explain what you are really trying to accomplish and what the recipient of such an e-mail's actual experience would be?

  • Do I need to provide the physcial hostname to iAS during installation or can I just that installed name into the /etc/hosts file?

     

    Hi,
    Pls confirm if you are using Windows 2000 Pro, in this O/S the
    hostname is the name of the computer itself. Check the
    MyComputer->Properties->Network Identification->Properties, the name you
    find under the computer name will be automatically taken while
    installation, if it doesn't then there is some error. However the
    C:\Winnt\System32\Drivers\Etc\hosts doesn't matter much while installing
    iAS 6.0 SP1 or above. Hope this helps
    Regards
