HT204392 Mistakenly dropped media card into DVD Slot..How do I get it out?

Help, dropped a media card into my DVD slot.  How do I remove it?

ok..I was able to remove the media card by propping up the computer on its side on two 4x4 lumber, then reached
in the slot with a thin feeler guage and pulled it out.  The slot has a flexible boot of sort which inhibits the
media card from falling out.

  • I inserted  SD card into CD slot how do I get it back out

    Inadverdently inserted SD card into CD slot how do I get it back out help please

    Happened to me too. Just before I went on holiday and I was clearing off my SD card for my camera. I left it there until I got back (having to buy a new card at the airport) then did a quick search. Found this clip on youTube featuring an L-shaped piece of cardboard trick which worked perfectly for me on second attempt.
    You've got to really blame Apple for the design of the machine when you consider the sheer amount of people who have made this mistake. At least I won't make it again.

    Have a look at this old thread, Cathy 1956's tip on page 1 seems to work for a lot of people:

    Worth reading the whole thread as other people have chimed in with other ways of extracting the disk.

  • Shoot i got my memory card in my cd slot how do i get it out

    how do i get it out?please help!

    Guys, it has to be fairly new if it has a memory card reader!
    Perhaps Mr Ives and company should reconsider putting the memory card reader slot just below the ODD slot. I am sure that many folks try to insert discs and memory card by feel alone.
    sdfsddfgssdg, you may do some damage fishing around in the ODD looking for something as small as a memory card. Then any damage to your ODD would not be covered by warranty. Best to pay the price of your error and have it looked at by a pro.

    Plug it into iTunes and restore it with your backup.  You should have a backup in iTunes or iCloud.

  • Wife sync'd herself into a corner - how can we get her out?

    This is a doozy. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    My wife and I recently got Centros and both of us had Palms whose files we wanted to transfer to our new Centros. I managed to pull this off with mine, after much research, but the wife, bless her soul, forged ahead impatiently and managed to first do a hotsync with her old Zire21, then install the new Palm Desktop and do a hotsync - using the same User ID as on the Zire21 - with her Centro. Obviously a no-no. This somehow caused her data in her PC's Palm Desktop to disappear.
    So here's the dilemma: I want to hot-sync the data on her Centro back onto her PC, for backup, but I'm stymied by both her Centro and Zire having the same User ID. Can anyone suggest a step by step process whereby we can get that data backed up and hopefully change the ID on either the Centro or Zire, so that we can untangle this mess?
    Many thanks!

    To get the character you need is hard, it is not an "s" but the last one in the list. Make a new memo and use alt instead. You should see the whole character list then and it should be in the bottom left corner. Looks like a fish on is fins. When done correctly it will disappear. Then check hotsync on the device and if the username is still in the upper left corner you will have to do it again. I had to do this about 8 times once. But it will go away.

  • SD card in DVD slot

    I have (trying to 2 things at the same time) inserted an SD card  in the DVD drive and can not see it any advice, the machine is a imac 3i

    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.

    I accidently pushed a photo/video card into my CD slot and can't get it out. Any suggestions?

    If you can Mark, take your iMac to an Apple Store or Apple certified repair provider.
    IMHO, better to let Apple take care of this then inserting anything else in the slot that may damge the optical drive.

  • Computer freezes when inserting a USB Bus Card into the slot.
