How can i get a memory card out if i inserted it in the wrong place?

I was entering a memoery card into my mac when i accidently pushed it in to the CD opening instead of the one right under it that is for memoery cards out of cameras. Now the memoery card is stuck in there and i tried everything but i cant get it out. if any one has any suggestions on what i should do please reply back!!!!

If the card does not come out of the optical drive when you turn the iMac on its side and gently shake it you have a problem.  Some users have reported success by inserting a thin piece of card into the drive to dislodge the memory card but you risk damaging the optical drive mechanism/optics or pushing the card in further.
It will be an expensive repair as it will not be covered by warranty.  It may be cheaper to 'write-off' the internal drive and by an external OEM USB drive.  Do not buy an Apple Superdrive as it will not work.

    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.

    How do i get my sd card out of the cd slot.. I have tried the method shown on youtube and it's not working

    Shut down the machine, turn it on it's side and shake it out. If you still can't get it try another solution on YouTube, there are many shown. We Have no idea which one you tried. If you still can't get it out take the machien into your local Apple Store or AASP and they will help you.

    Hello there, AniChirglyan.
    The following Knowledge Base article talks a little about the purchasing order of items through the iTunes Store.
    iTunes Store: How iTunes Store purchases are billed
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582
    iTunes may still ask you for information from your card on file if that information has lapsed or needs updating. The card information on file has to be correct, no matter what purchasing option you will be exercising for this purchase.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro D.

  • How can I get 300 dpi tifs out of webex stills & then worked on in adobe illustrator?

    How can I get 300 dpi tifs out of webex stills & then worked on in adobe illustrator?
    I have been trying to convert images created in webex and transferred to illustrator into 300 dpi tifs. They download as ucf's when generated on white board. Or I have to upload files from other webex participants coming in at 72 dpi, converting them to something bigger in photoshop to paint in before taking them back into the webex session as a doc that then gets worked on further during the session. Later they go into illustrator for some more work with vectors. That's fine for the web but now a publisher wants them as 300 dpi tifs and I can only get things back & forth as 72 dpi pdf's. If I try to bump them up with a resample, they come out teensy weensy. What am I missing and is there any way to make them look good?

    What I need is to be able to transfer the images between formats without degradation of the resolution and find ways to sharpen what I have even if I can't increase pixels. If the original I'm delivered is a 96 dpi power point slide, for example, that's what I have to work with, I'm using Illustrator to compensate with vectors. But then I still need to get it back to a 300 dpi tiff to meet the specs.

    Only Apple Account Security could help at this point. You can try calling Apple Support in Canada - you'll have to find one of the several ways, such as Skype, to call an 800 number from outside of the relevant country - and ask for Account Security and see if they can help. Or you can find a friend who speaks Chinese and ask them to help you talk to Apple Support in China. There are really no other options that I know of.
    Note, by the way, that these are user-to-user support forums. You aren't speaking with Apple when you post here.

    Only 3 can authorize unlocking it. If you don't meet their conditions, then you're out of luck.

    How can I get an album to play in order on Itunes?  The songs keep skipping all around to other albums that I did not want to listen to at that time?

    It sounds like you might have the shuffle button at the bottom left of the iTunes (the button with the squiggly lines).
    If that's not the case, then maybe you just need to sort your library by album by clicking the album tab at the top.
    Is your music in a playlist, or are you trying to play it from the entire library?
