My CD/DVD drive will not open

My CD/DVD drive will not open when I insert any type CD/DVD. The CD/DVD just runs but will not open.

Try cleaning the lens:
Use a DVD lens cleaning disk.
Use a few shots of compressed air in the slot.
Wrap a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglasses cleaning cloth?) around a business card and gently insert it in the slot.
If no success, a trip to the genius bar at an Apple store is the best option.
Ciao.

Pioneer DVD-ROM will not eject after some time of system usage

I'm having an odd issue where after my Mac Pro is used for a certain amount of time (it seems variable), the optical drive will no longer seemingly be recognized. It shows up in the hardware profile for the system, however when I hit the eject key, Toast starts up instead of my drive responding. Further, when Toast or any other CD / DVD writing utility is started after this occurs, the drive is not recognized in these applications.
Any idea as to what could potentially be going on here?
The thing that throws me the real curve ball is that it DOES work for a little while when the system is restarted and then just "disappears" as noted.

If it's not the original Apple DVD drive, make sure "Put hard disks to sleep when possible" is not enabled in "Energy Saver" system preference, then reboot the system.

Dvd software will not open "You can't open the application Install because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.

I am trying to open the application for educational software and the message You can't open the application Install because PowerPC applications are no longer supported....keeps appearing...help

The installer is for a PowerPC-based Mac, last produced in 2006.
Often, that software is just a "reader" that displays a menu of items to select from. The files themselves are in folders on the disk and you may be able to access them without using the installer.

DVD Drive Will Not Eject

The DVD Drive will not open with the keyboard eject button. The only way to open it is restart it and then put in appleoption+OF then type "eject cd" then type "Mac-boot" but there must be a simpler way to do this with out rebooting it every time you want to open the drive bay. The key board is brand new. I am using a IOgear Miniview III KVM switch. It works when you plug the keyboard in directly into the mac it works fine. Is there a KVM switch driver that is compatible with the Powermac G5 and a PC.

Open the Terminal application in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and enter "drutil eject" without the quote marks. If you need to use this command often, it can be made into a double-clickable application. To do this, open the Script Editor in the /Applications/AppleScript/ folder, paste the following in:
do shell script "drutil eject"
and save it as an application.

Installation disk will not open or autorun.

Brand new installation of sbs 2011 premium add on (SBS 2008 R2) on dell power edge box. Ready to install SQL Server 2008 R2 (disk 2 of the premium add on package). DVD drive will not open or browse contents of installation disk. DVD drive on new server
reads/opens all other disks, AND the SQL install disk opens in any other machine. This is a new, never installed retail set of disks. Anyone have any ideas? Is there some kind of software protection on this cd that would cause it to not open on the
machine that has the companion OS disk installed?

Hi DavidCraig,
As mentioned in this
article, we can install SQL Server 2008 R2 on Windows Small Business Server 2011. And according to my knowledge, there’s no specific software protection on the cd.
From your description, DVD drive will not open or browse contents of installation disk, have you got any error messages?
Besides, could you please copy the SQL Server setup files (which are extracted successfully in other machine) to Windows Small Business Server 2011?
Then check if you can install SQL Server 2008 R2 on the server.
Thanks,
Lydia Zhang

I have a mac Book that will not open DVD's of Business Presentations. I had my hard drive taken in to the Mac Store and had a new hard drive installed. Since then I cannot open DVD's. What is the application that I need, and the process. Tks

I have a mac book that will not open up DVD's recorded with a presentation. I install the disc in a HP / windows 7 and it works fine. I had my hard drive replaced and since then I cannot open up DVD's. Was there a application that did not get installed? And if so what is the process.

You need DVD Player. It should be in your Applications folder. If it is in there go to System Preferences>CDs & DVDs and for "When you insert a video DVD" make sure DVD Player is selected.

How to burn a slideshow to DVD for anyone to play. I burned a DVD and can play it on my mac, but will not open in windows

Need to know how to burn a DVD that can be viewed by any DVD player. I created a DVD from a slideshow created in iPhoto. I can open it on my computer, but it will not open or even be recognized in my home DVD player. I asked a friend to try it on a Windows computer and he could not open it. What's the key to creating things for friends & family that do not have Mac anything?

Dvd will not open dvd player

I just created a new DVD video using iDVD, but after burning the DVD and trying to play the DVD on any computer, it will not open unless I open the DVD Player first (I have my settings on DVD Player to automatically open DVDs). Any ideas?

Hi
Most common origin to this are
• Use of Cheap DVD brand e.g. Memorex, NoName etc. - I only use Verbatim (more organic dye in them)
• Burn speed - I set it down to x4
• Use of DVD-/+RW disks - I only use DVD-R as they also play on older DVD-Players (DVD+R don't)

DVD Studio Pro 4 will not open after installing Leopard

I had trouble opening my film project in FCP studio 2 but resolved the problem by trashing the preferences. This did not help other programs like DVD studio pro which will not open at all or crashes as soon as it is open. It also gives me strange messages while it tries to open like" Media-application quit unexpectedly." Would re-installing help? I would have to begin with FCP studio pro and then update all the programs again. Is there an easier way to solve this problem? (Leopard is causing other programs to quit unexpectedly but I don't get messages that some part of the application has quit).

So far it seems the advice when going to Leopard is to due a total clean install of Leopard on a clean drive before installing the applications.
