Is there a manual eject button for the combo drive on the mini?

My angel of a 3 year old has managed to force two dvds into the combo drive, bless her, and so none of the software solutions to ejecting discs is much use to me, I'm afraid.
There's a soft, black button to the right of the disc slot, but I don't want to force anything until it's confirmed that it is indeed some kind of manual eject.
Otherwise, I guess it's back to base ...
Many thanks for any help.
Ian

Hi Boece and IanB1967-
There is no manual eject mechanism, however one may be able to manually remove a disk from the drive albeit with varied results.
If two are stuck this may cause mechanical as well as electronic malfunctions within the drive itself. While an external is an excellent idea I think it is important to undo whatever damage has been done.
If you are daring enough you can open up the mini and replace the optical drive yourself. If under warranty or AppleCare just let them do it, even if they try to hit you for a charge. A firm yet polite stand may get you somewhere, as it is very difficult to actually jam 2 disks into a slot-loading drive.

I tried to restore my iMac with my MacBook pro CDs but it's seem it got restored but it say this cd is not supported on this iMac, What could I do to take out the disk?

Also, if you have Lion on the computer. You have a recovery partition on the drive. On startup hold down 'Control' to bring up your startup menu. Select "Recovery HD". That's how you get to it. Lion's recovery partition acts as the installation discs that came with all previous versions of OS X.

Senior moment? I can't find the Eject button on the menu bar preference

Whether through temporary blindness or by virtue of a senior moment, I can't find where the preference to show or hide the Eject button on the menu bar is located. I'm trying to hide it, as it had always been.
Any help will be most appreciated.

If you don't want it there then CMD drag it down, if you ever want it back...
On your main hard drive, dig down into System > Library > CoreServices > Menu Extras. Inside that window, double-click on the icon called Eject.menu.

HT4527 There is no import button at the bottom right corner of iTunes 11... please help as this is really frustrating

I followed the instructions, the account is authorized, I can see the tracks from my iMac on my MacBook, and I can play the songs, search the songs, etc...
But once the songs are selected, there is no "Import" button at the bottom right of iTunes.
What do I do from here, in order to transfer tracks from iMac to MacBook?

Do you see "Home Sharing" on both your iMac and MacBook? Is Home Sharing all set up? Have you gone through each one of the ten steps in the "Home Sharing" section of the article you attched? Are you looking for the "Import" button on your MacBook?

Using latest version of iOS7 on a iPhone 4s, there is NO "accept" button for the 54 pages of Terms

Using the latest version of iOS7 on an iPhone 4S there is no "accept" button for the Terms & Conditions. Therefore I now have 23 apps that will not update.
I tried to fix this by updating on my laptop. No go. The sync crashes EVERY TIME at "Step 6 of 7".
I've searched the forums, and tried all suggestions, to no avail.
HELP.
Going to the Genuis Bar in Manhattan is like lambs to a slaughter.

Hey AVR127,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are having issues accepting the Terms & Conditions. If you have not already done so, you may want to restart your iPhone:

There is no edit button at the bottom of my notification center in Yosemite. I'm using a macbook pro. Any ideas?

I'm trying to customize my notification center, but there is no edit button at the bottom where there is supposed to be one. How do I fix this?

You can try trashing the preference file. Then kill the NotificationCenter.app.
The preference file is stored inside your Library folder. This is the complete path+preference file's name
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.notificationcenterui.plist
To kill the NotificationCenter.app, open Activity Monitor. Using the search box, type noti. You'll see the Notification center listed below. Select the line and click on the kill button
Force Quit, when asked. Notification Center reopens automatically.
Check.

I cannot eject disk from my MacBook Air

I cannot eject a disk from my MacBook Air.   I've tried many options.    Any suggestions?

Five ways to eject a stuck CD or DVD from the optical drive
Ejecting the stuck disc can usually be done in one of the following ways:
1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
      left mouse button until the disc ejects.
2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.
4. Press COMMAND-E.
5. If none of the above work try this: Open the Terminal application in
      your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following:
        /usr/bin/drutil eject
If this fails then try this:
Boot the computer into Single-user Mode. At the prompt enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes.

It says that "there was a problem connecting to the server". What's wrong with this, and how can I deal with this problem?

I just got my new iPad Mini2, and when I choose "sign in with your apple ID", it says that "there was a problem connecting to the server". What's wrong with this, and how can I deal with this problem?

1. Turn router off for 30 seconds and on again
2. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
