CD's when inserted pop out

When I insert a cd it pops out. I called tech support and they said it was a hardware issue. After spending 2 hours at the Apple store, they said it was a software issue. They reinstalled Leopard, the updates and the cd/dvd drivers. They tried it with a dvd and iDvd opened and worked perfectly. When I got home, the dvd did work, however a photo, document or music cd does not work. It still pops out when inserted with no message. It makes a small noise that sounds like it is trying to work but after a few seconds it pops out. I checked my system preferences and the cd/dvd is set up correctly. Help! I don't want to make another trip to the Apple store which is 150 miles round trip (eventhough the store is so much fun). Look forward to your input! Thanks

If you have a G4 iMac, then you need to repost over in the Using DVDs and CDs with your iMac (Flat Panel) Forums.

  • IPhone reboots when keyboard pops out

    Ever since I upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS 6.1.3 it reboots every now and then when the keyboard was in use. I tried resetting it and restore it but it's the same thing still happen. I have it replaced 3 times and the results is still the same. Anybody can give me any solutions to fix this?

    Hello tTitanic,
    Sorry to hear that your iPhone is restarting every time you try to access the keyboard.  I would be concerned about that too.  It sounds like you have replaced the iPhone, and it continues to restart, which means it probably is not a hardware problem and most likely a software issue. 
    It also sounds like you have restored your iPhone, but if you restored your backup, you may be restoring the issue.  What I would recommend is restoring your iPhone to factory settings and just resyncing your content back to your iPhone rather than restoring the backup.  Don't forget to import and sync data that you want to keep like photos and contacts before you restore your phone.
    You can find steps to restore your iPhone here:

  • Outlook 2013 minimizes to taskbar on W7 when replying (popped out) to an email

    Environment: Windows 7, Office 2013
    In Outlook 2013 the following actions are taken:
    1) click on "reply" button
    2) Reply window opens
    3) Outlook and reply window mimimize to the taskbar
    4) minimized Outlook is clicked on and restores to full screen.
    Unsurprisingly, this is very irritating.  It is also not consistent, ie, it does not happen every time, however, I have been unable to determine what the difference is.

  • HT1338 i have apps to be updated but when i try to update them a message pops out saying "You have updates for other accounts, please sigh in with the other id". Can some one help me how can i still update the same with the new apple id ive created.

    i have apps to be updated but when i try to update them a message pops out saying "You have updates for other accounts, please sigh in with the other id". Can some one help me how can i still update the same with the new apple id ive created. As i dont have the access to the earlier id anymore.

    You cannot. The apps are assigned to that Apple ID and there is nothing you can do to change that. You could choose to download them again with the new Apple ID, any paid apps will need to be purchased again.
    Hope that helps.

  • Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tell me that the file is being used even when  it is not. How can I fix this issue?

    Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tells me that the file is being used even when  iall other programs are closed. How can I fix this issue?

    Thanks Jeff, I was not aware that a template could be multi-page.  (All the existing templates were 1 page)
    But it worked, saving me some steps.  When I was finished I renamed the document, and locked it.
    Then tried to save it but  could not because it was locked.  I closed it, went to my Spread Sheet Folder ,
    to find it, it was not there.  The Finder could not find it either.
    So I start over again.
    I opened up Numbers and it showed my personal Numbers template folder, it contained both my new 
    original 4 page template and the vanished saved document!
    I tried to delete the template containing these document data and could not - I had to go to the Library/Application Support/Numbers to physically remove it from this folder. Then I started over again.  I Finally found out how to make it work: I can now "save as", and then lock, and it will go to place where I want it to be saved and locked.
    The secret is: Click on the document title in the menu bar, and it opens up  "Save as...", which works the same as in OS 10.4.11, and you can pick the place you want for saving.  Once done that, you can then lock the document in the same pull down menu, and then close it.
    I also found later that I can delete a template from its folder, by letting Numbers open the templates,
    clicking on the one I want to remove, then go to the "Numbers Menu/File/Move to...", select "Desktop"
    and from there the selected template can then be thrown into the Trash from there.
    It appears now that the real fault of the Numbers software is that the "Save as" command is not available in the "Edit" or "File" pull-down menus, but hidden behind the title of the document.

  • Whenever I plugged in HP laserjet M1132 printer usb to my Macbook air,a screen pop-out "the disk inserted are not readable by this computer".I uninstalled

    Hi,I'm new here and I think my problem were discussed few times before.However,I tried to follow the solutions similiar to my condition but it does not work.My problem is whenever I plugged in the HP printer (Laserjet M1132 MFP) usb to my Macbook Air,a screen will pop-out and read as 'the disk inserted is not readable by this computer'.I even bought my Mac to the Mac store but the situation remains the same.Okay with other printer but not with my HP.Sigh.The HP printer worked just fine with other computers (not Mac).I'm really sick of it.Please help me.I once plugged in an external hard drive & started Time Machine with it.The printer problem started after that.However, the hard drive plug-in works just fine.
    Your attention of above matter is highly appreciated.Thank you.

    Here is what worked for me:
    I reset the System Management Controller on my MBA.  To do so requires shutting it down, keeping it plugged in to power (I also unplugged both USB connections), and then from a powered off state I simultaneously pressed Shift + Ctl + Option + Power (I did this once and it did not work so I tried again and did it 3 times just to be safe), then released them at once, then I pressed the power button.  Problem solved.

    I also tried uninstalling the using the repair Disk Permissions with Disk Utility and moved the HP Printer software accessories to the trash (you can search the web for how to do that but that did not solve the problem either).  Neither of these options worked.

  • Hide Excel from popping out when creating slide in PowerPoint

    Hi, l have an application that will generate PowerPoint and create some chart within the PowerPoint.
    i've been using Interop.Powerpoint.Slide.Shapes.AddChart() to create chart in PowerPoint. The momment this function is called, an Excel window will pop out for us to fill in the data. Is there any way to tell Excel window open
    in minimize mode/behind other application instead of popping out and became the active window? Even if I doChart.ChartData.Workbook.Application.Visible = false, Excel window still shows up a little while. Some of the device the Excel
    window will automatically open behind other application but some don't.

    I guess open excel first in background won't work. When we call AddChart() method, an Excel will be pop out for us to fill in the data. By the way, the Excel will be close after a chart is created successfully and another new Excel Window will pop out again
    if we call AddChart() method again.

  • I reset a Linksys extender, when I try to navigate Safari using The Linksys network, a Box askin for username And password pops out. What is this about?

    I reset a Linksys extender, when I try to navigate Safari using The Linksys network, a Box askin for username And password pops out. What is this about?

    Ask Linksys. If you reset the extender it presumably lost the username and password it was supposed to service.  I'd just supply the name and password and move on.

  • Finder window keeps popping out when booting up the computer

    Lately I've noticed whenever I shut down the computer with the "Reopen windows when logging back in" uncheck, this Finder window will pop out the next time I startup the computer. Still new to Apple and am not sure any settings that I may have set before this.
    I just want a clear desktop when I boot up the computer and not greeted by this system Finder window.

    Finder does not obey the rules of the 'Reopen windows' dialogue box. It will reopen any Finder window that was not closed when you shutdown. This was also true in Snow Leopard and isn't part of the 'Resume' feature itself.
    The only way to not see that window when you restart is to close it before you shutdown!

  • I got problem on installing iTunes. When I clicked iTunes out, two windows popped out. One said the procedure entry point CFAttributed String Create Mutable could not be located in the dynamic link library Core Foundation.dll.

    I got problem on installing iTunes. When I clicked iTunes out, two windows popped out. One said the procedure entry point CFAttributed String Create Mutable could not be located in the dynamic link library Core Foundation.dll. and one just said *Itunes was not installed correctly.  Please re install I Tunes Error 7 (windows error 127) . I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it. But either way cant work. I really need some of your help! PLS HELP ME!

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The error shares a similar pattern to that in the third box, so a similar approach should work. Look for CoreFoundation.dll in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support, delete it, then repair Apple Application Support.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
