Help!! -- I just Stuck an SD Card Into My CD/DVD Slot

Oh Man!
Stupid me ... without being careful and without looking I thought I was putting my SD card into the SD slot on the right side of my iMac. Instead I aimed too high and have slipped it into the CD drive.
Any suggestions on how to get it out?
Thanks

Thanks to this thread I was able to recover my SD card - and save myself a lot of time, money and hassle. The bent paper-clip tactic worked fine. After unplugging my iMac and tipping it over I got the bugger out on my second attempt! Darn stupid sticking it in there in the first place though having the two slots so close together doesw create something of a risk of this happening...

TS1424 Hi. I just added $25 gift card into the redeem in the app store and purchased four different apps for $4.99 each. I was planning on purchasing one more app at $4.99, but showed that I do not have the $5.00 in my redeem. Instead I have only $4.80?!?

Is there taxes that's going on here?
I feel jipped!

There will indeed be taxes, assuming you are in an area where sales tax is normally charged.

How do I get camera memory card out of the DVD slot?

How do I get camera memory card out of the DVD slot?

Well, for one thing it shouldn't be in the DVD slot. You can try turning the computer on it's side and see if you can coax it out, but otherwise you will need to take it in for service because the computer has to be disassembled.

You would have thought by now that someone would have come up with a cover (with holes for air flow) for the CD opening. Would make it harder to put a SD card into the CD slot.

You should be able to retrieve it without taking the iMac apart.

Installing an extreem card into G4 12 DVI powerbook 1ghz

I have just installed an extreem card into 12 dvi powerbook and upon startup I get arepeated message that I must restart. startup halts and after repeated attempts still cannot start up
any help would be welcome

Either the card is bad or not seated properly. Pull it out and make sure you can still boot and haven't damaged anything. Then shut down and try again making sure it is firmly pushed all the way into the connector and not upside down either!

I put my sim card into a new iphone and tried to change it back to the old one and now the phone is locked. It's asking for a passcode and I didn't have a passcode set up.

Hi! I need help! I put my sim card into a new iphone (3g) and then tried to put it back into the old one to get my contacts from it. Now the old iphone is locked and it's asking for a passcode, but I never set up a passcode on it. Has anyone experienced this or does anyone know what to do? Thanks!

Not sure if this applies to your region, but in Australia the SIM password is often written on the "credit card" sized plastic card that the SIM was provided to you with the phone by the telco. Do you still have this? It could be in the iPhone box?

SD card in DVD slot

First problem is that SD cards go into their own slot. If you put it into the CD/DVD slot, you need to extract it. Do a search in these forums for sd card in dvd slot and peruse the hits.

Can I insert a memory card into my Macbook Pro? I tried, and it does not go in on its own, I don't want to force it and get it stuck!! Help!

Maybe the wrong port or the wrong kind of memory card? You didn't say what version/year of Macbook Pro you have. Below is a photo of the newest one.
Red oval = USB port. It is to the left of the headphone jack.
Blue oval = SDXC card port. Is your card an SDXC card?
What are your options for transferring data to the picture frame? The manual should say.

Try connecting the device to your iTunes library and restoring it. If necessary place the iPod into recovery mode using the instructions in this Apple support document.

Clifton I must disagree with you on the above statement. It is my opinion and experience that you should never connect the camera directly to any computer, Mac Windows Whatever.
It is always best to Remove the memory card from the camera and put it in a card reader, whether an external reader or one built into the computer, to copy images from the card.
Hi Shootist. I would be interested in hearing some reasoning on this. I almost always use a USB cable to connect my camera to the MBP for transferring pictures, and have moved about 30,000 this way over the last 6 years since my photography went digital. Recently, on the rare occassions when I have only a few to transfer and I was too lazy to go for the cable, I have used the card reader; about half those times I have difficulty getting the MBP to recognise the card. I find I have to press the card very hard into the slot for it to be recognised.
My rationale is quite possibly wrong, but I feel that the USB connectors are more robust and hard-wearing than the flimsy connectors on an SD card. Also, I haven't measured it, but I think the data transfer is faster with the cable. (I just came across this test, which reports noticeably faster transfer for cable than built-in card reader, but the computer was a PC)
Chiara, sorry for hijacking your thread.

Sounds like either the Display or Graphics chip, that will not be cheap to fix. Because it is a 2006 and getting on in years, it might be best to move whatever you want to keep over to your newer iMac using Firewire Target Disk Mode and let it rest in peace.
