HT1338 cannot insert the disc into mac mini.It seems something obstructed.

cannot insert the disc into mac mini.it seemssomething obstrucetd inside.

1. Go into Spotlight from the top of your Mac Mini on the menu bar.
2. And search for "CDs & DVDs" (It's also in the System Preferences)
Click on it and a small CDs & DVDs window will pop up with options of what happens when you insert a disk into the drive
3. By then, try inserting a disk in (while that window is open. This kinda wakes up your drive to accept the disk). It should accept it.
4. If nothing happens, then manually open the program that should be opening when you insert the disk or go to Finder (Eg. if it's an audio disk, then open iTunes)
5. If opening the program still does not activate the drive to start spinning the disk, then close the programs and windows you opened, and repeat step 1-4 and the disk should be spinning and automatically opening the proper program.
Or go into Terminal app and type in: drutil ejec

  • 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.

  • When i insert the DVD into the optical drive, the mac book hanged....

    when i insert the DVD into the optical drive or press the eject button , the mac book hanged....
    i need to turn off the mac book by pressing the turn off button directly.

    Well there is Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck witch includes step by step instructions to run disk repair without the install disk.
    But before doing that, it's a good idea to backup. You may want to troubleshooting your superdrive / disk before hand. if I disk repair fails you may need the disk working to re-install the OS.
    Dose the computer read any DVDs? if no, you may want to use Troubleshooting the slot load optical disc drive.

    All has been installed. Those are there in case you need to do a reinstall. Unlike most Windows based hardware vendors these days. Apple still ships software you might need in case a drive fails. Even in the case of the new MacBook Air, Apple ships the software on a flash drive.

  • I have just gotten the new imac for christmas. where do i insert a disc into my new iMac?

    i am unsure on how to insert a disc into the new imac.

    You need to purchase an external, third party FireWire/Thunderbolt or USB 2.0/3.0 optical drive or
    You can purchase a companion drive direct from Apple for $79.
    Third party drives will be cheaper.

    Is it true that Pages cannot insert a page into the middle of a document?
    I have tried this many times using different techniques and it just refuses to do it. Can anyone help?

    To see how Pages works:
    Menu > View > Page Thumbnails
    When you click on the thumbnails each Section is outlined in yellow.
    Click where you want a new page > Menu > Insert > Section Break
    But then to have a new page all you need to do is add content to fill the page or Insert > Page Break to force the insertion point over onto a new page.

  • Still cannot eject the disc

    I've only just opened the box. Hoping to switch to mac from PC. Using the PC to send this appeal... switching cables all but the monitor) frequently to attempt my mini remedy.
    I've tried all of the reboot, key strokes (PC keyboard) and tricks... I still cannot eject the disc.
    I got as far as making a partition but failed to install MS XP Pro... I suspect the change in keyboards midstream caused the mini to lose the keyboard identification.

    Try holding down the mouse button right from the moment you turn the computer on, and keep holding it down until the disk comes out, even all the way up to the login screen (if it even gets you that far).

  • How do I create a 1d array that takes a single calculation and insert the result into the first row and then the next calculation the next time the loop passes that point and puts the results in thsecond row and so on until the loop is exited.

I need to have all results displayed and keep building the array(display until, the end of the test)Eventually I will have to include a min max section that displays the min and max values calculated, but that should be easy with the min max function.Actually I thought this should have been easy but, I gues I can not see the forest through the trees.

    I didn't really have time to dig in and understand your program in depth,
    but I have a few tips for you that might things a bit easier:
    - You use local variables excessively which really complicates things. Try
    not to use them and it will make your life easier.
    - If you flowchart the design (very similar to a dataflow diagram, keep in
    mind!) you want to gather data, calculate a value from that data, store the
    calculation in an array, and loop while the time is in a certain range. So
    theres really not much need for a sequence as long as you get rid of the
    local variables (sequences also complicate things)
    - You loop again if timepassed+1 is still less than some constant. Rather
    than messing with locals it seems so much easier to use a shiftregister (if
    absolutely necessary) or in this case base it upon the number of iterations
    of the loop. In this case it looks like "time passed" is the same thing as
    the number of loop iterations, but I didn't check closely. There's an i
    terminal in your whileloop to read for the number of iterations.
    - After having simplified your design by eliminating unnecessary sequence
    and local variables, you should be able to draw out the labview diagram.
    Don't try to use the "insert into array" vis since theres no need. Each
    iteration of your loop calculates a number which goes into the next position
    of the array right? Pass your result outside the loop, and enable indexing
    on the terminal so Labview automatically generates the array for you. If
    your calculation is a function of previous data, then use a shift register
    to keep previous values around.
    I wish you luck. Post again if you have any questions. Without a more
    detailed understanding of your task at hand it's kind of hard to post actual
    code suggestions for you.

  • Cannot insert Chinese character into nvarchar2 field

    I have tested in two environments:
    1. Database Character Set: ZHS16CGB231280
    National Character Set: AL16UTF8
    If the field type of datatable is varchar2 or nvarchar2, the provider can read and write Chinese correctly.
    2. Database Character Set:WE8MSWIN1252
    National Character Set: AL16UTF8
    The provider can not read and write Chinese correctly even the field type of datatable is nvarchar2
    I find that for the second one, both MS .NET Managed Provider for Oracle and Oracle Managed Data Provider cannot read and write NCHAR or NVARCHAR2 fields. The data inserted into these fields become question marks.
    Even if I changed the NLS_LANG registry to SIMPLIFIED CHINESE_CHINA.ZHS16CGB231280, the result is the same.
    For the second situation, only after I change the Database Character Set to ZHS16CGB231280 with ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET statement, can I insert Chinese correctly.
    Does any know why I cannot insert Chinese characters into Unicode fields when the Database Character Set is WE8MSWIN1252? Thanks.
    Regards,
    Jason

    Hi Jason,
    First of all, I am not familiar with MS .NET Managed Provider for Oracle or Oracle Managed Data Provider.
    How did you insert these Simplified Chinese characters into the NVARCHAR2 column ? Are they hardcoded as string literals as part of the SQL INSERT statement ? If so, this could be because, all SQL statements are converted into the database character set before they are parsed by the SQL engine; hence these Chinese characters would be lost if your db character set was WE8MSWIN1252 but not when it was ZHS16CGB231280.
    Two workarounds, both involved the removal of hardcoding chinese characters.
    1. Rewrite your string literal using the SQL function UNISTR().
    2. Use bind variables instead of text literals in the SQL.
    Thanks

  • Outlook 2013: Cannot insert any attachments into calendar events & tasks

    Hi,
    I encountered a seemingly ridiculous problem: 
    I cannot insert any attachments into calendar events & tasks in
    Outlook 2013 on a Win 8.1 machine. Outlook simply ignores CTRL-V paste actions with files and also all drag&drop actions with files. Does anyone have a solution or similar problems?
    Outlook 2013 runs using an exchange server account (Outlook.com / Office 365) on the machine.
    Even if there is a logic behind this behavior, Outlook should at least inform the user why it rejects inserting the attachment.
    Inserting attachments into e-mails works fine.
    All 3rd party add-ins have been disabled, to avoid interference of an add-in.
    Christian

    Hi,
    This is an known issue, you can refer to the article that our MVP Diane Poremsky wrote:
    Attachments are hidden in Outlook.com tasks and appointments
    http://slipstick.com/outlook/olc-hotmail/attachments-hidden-outlookcom-tasks-contacts-appointments/
    My opinion is, since Outlook.com calendar doesn't support attachments, this may be expected when you are using an Outlook.com account.
    Feel free to let me know if I misunderstood anything.

  • When using Final Cut Express, the video in the Viewer window looks fine, but when I insert the video into the Canvas Timeline it appears to lose resolution, and look fuzzy and blurry. Are there preferences or settings for the Timeline that cause this?

    When using Final Cut Express, the video in the Viewer window looks fine, but when I insert the video into the Canvas Timeline it appears to lose resolution, and look fuzzy and blurry. Are there preferences or settings for the Timeline that cause this?

    Thanks David. I had to convert the mts file to Quick Time (using AunSoft Conversion software) before I could import it into Final Cut Express. And I made sure I kept the size of movie (720 X 480 with letterbox) to compliment what I set my Panaconic AVCCAM video recorder at (720/60). Even after I fully render it, it still looks fuzzy in the Canvas window at the right that plays what I have editing down in the Timeline. A friend that edits some using Final Cut Pro helped me to narrow things down to this problem. This is also wierd. If my Viewer window at the left is set to 200% to get the person's head the same size in the Canvas window at the right we needed to put it to 400%. Does this make any sense. We think we need to control the Time line resolution somehow but cannot find any options from my manual, or the help, or in the various drop down menus. Do you have any clue? What is going on?
