I am putting all my old disks of  pictures onto my desktop and i put the disk into the computer, nothing came up so I went to eject the disk and it will not. Any suggestions???

This fourm is for Macs built during 2006 & earlier.
Here is how to find out what version of Mac OS you are running:
Click on the blue apple in the upper left hand of the screen.
click on this icon
Click on the first line, "About This Mac"
Most of these are numbers & that's what we want.
What version & Processor do you have?
power off your machine.  hold down your left mouse button.  power on your machine.  This should eject the cd.
Eject cd
Here is a web page on twelve ways to eject the cd.
seems like the page has gone away

  • I just put in a new C drive and now my pictures will not come up in Bridge and CS3.

    Most of my pictures are .nef and now they open very tiny, not big at all.  What am I doing wrong???
    Thanks

    You don't say what camera produced the .NEF files.
    Have you updated the Adobe Camera Raw plug-in since re-installing?

  • My granddaughter put the Start Up Disk in the drive inadvertently and now the drive will not eject it or start up using the HD.  I have tried all of the suggestions for opening it that appear in the manual.  Help?

    My granddaughter put the Start Up Disk in the drive inadvertently and now the drive will not eject it or start up using the HD.  I have tried all of the suggestions for opening it that appear in the manual.  Help?  It is her computer, a iMac G3 or G4 with superdrive, the one with the ball shaped base.   Thank you.

    It's a tray loading drive, there should be a little hole next to it, just large enough for a paper clip.  Stick the end of the paper clip in it and the tray should open.

  • I updated from Snow Leorard to Moutain Lion and now my internet will not recognise  my password. All other comps use the network but my Mac upgraded Mac Mini keeps coming up with either 'timeout' or 'user or password not recognised' ...help!

    Hello all
    I upgraded from Snow Leopard to the latest Mountain Lion OS and now my Wifi will not work. When I try and insert the password to my Wifi network states either 'connection timed out' or 'password and/or user name not recognised' please help...!

    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    Restart the router. Many problems are solved that way.
    Step 2
    Change the name of the wireless network, if applicable, to eliminate any characters other than letters and digits. You do that on your router via its web page, if it's not an Apple device, or via AirPort Utility, if it is an Apple device.
    Step 3
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts.
    Step 4
    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
    Step 5
    You may need to change other settings on the router. See the guidelines linked below:
    Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    Potential sources of interference
    Step 6
    Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.

  • Burned disk will not eject. Any ideas ?

    I have burned photos onto disks many time before with no problem.
    This time, the burned disk will not eject.
    Any suggestions ? Thank you.

    Launch the Terminal applicaiton and enter the following: drutil tray eject 0 followed by the Enter key.
    Or reboot your Mac with the right button on the mouse  held down during the boot.  That will eject the disk.

    Did a restore, and now my iPhone will not activate, though the iOS activation server seems to be "green"
    SIM card is inserted, connected to wifi, and connected to iTunes though it tells me it is "unable to continue at this time"
    Any other solutions?

    Hi JG14usa,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you attempted an update on your daughter’s iPhone but the update will not complete. For this type of situation, it may be necessary to place your iPhone into recovery mode and restore. Please use the instructions located in the attached article to complete this process. 
    If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Best regards,

  • I lost all the songs on my itunes and now my phone will not sync with out loosing all my music

    my computer hard drive crashed and i had to re download itunes and now my phone will not sync without erasing all my music

    That is correct.  The iphone will sync with one and only one computer/library at a time.  If you sync to another then it will indeed erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer/library.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use this to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases
    You will also need to enter one unique contact and calendar entry in the computer .  When you first sync, you should get the option to merge.  Otherwise this data will be erased as well.
    Much easier to use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • I upgraded to Maverick and now Time Machine will not connect to the external hard drive to back up files.  The external hard drive is a Western Digital "My Book Live" 2 TB.  How do I solve problem?

    I upgraded to Maverick and now Time Machine will not connect to the external hard drive to back up files.  The external hard drive is a Western Digital "My Book Live" 2 TB.  How do I solve problem?

    I also had problem accessing my WD MyBookLive after upgrading to Maverick.
    To resolve the problem, I used  Connect To Server (Cmd K) to specify the IP address.
    Then I enter a user id and password I created in the MyBookLive.
    You can also verify that you have admin access to the MyBookLive using Safari or Chrome.
    Just enter the MyBookLive IP address as the URL.

  • I have a new wireless router and now my laptop will not recognize the printer.

    I recently installed a new wireless router,Linksys E2500, and now my laptop will not connect to my OfficeJet 4500 wireless printer.  Operating system is Windows XP.  Says it does not recognize the printer.  It was working fine with my other Linksys router and I have been able to connect all of my other electronic equipment.  Thanks.

    You must reinstall the full feature software and drivers again to be sure it will work with the new router.  This is the fastest way.  Simply follow the instructions that came with the printer.
