The optical drive has probably failed. It's a fairly common thing with these slim SuperDrives. Does it read any discs you put into it? You can try resetting the SMC and pram but I'll be surprised if it helps.
To reset the SMC
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
Wait fifteen seconds.
Attach the computer's power cord.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on
Resetting PRAM and NVRAM
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

A communication error with disc drive

A communication error with disc drive and burn folder on macbook will not let me burn discs. Is this a program error kind of thing or just parts problems?
White Macbook using OS 10.6.8

There is a chance that the optical drive &/or its cable have failed
so a replacement, perhaps in the form of a third-party quality drive
may be in order. The Apple USB Superdrive does not directly work
with older computers that have internal optical drives; but there are
good ones by other makers, owners of older MacBook portables use.
{There may also be a Console error message failure-related code.}
Or see about the ifixit guide to repair that model MacBook & a
replacement part from OWC, to survey efforts & costs to DIY.
Good luck & happy computing!

Error with OCI8 driver installing sendmail/javamail

Hi to All,
From Dos window I run the command:
loadjava -user sys/pwd@name_db -resolve -synonym activation.jar
This is the first step in order to install a Sendmail package based on javamail, but I have this error:
=============================
Java.exe error
Impossible to find the enterpoint kpufhndl0 of procedure in the library of dynamic link OCI.dll (Sorry, this is a translation of italian language)
OK
=============================
After I click on OK and this is the next response:

After, I have used the command:
loadjava -thin C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\oradb10g\BIN\ocijdbc10.dll
This is the result:

But the connection descriptor that I use is eg COSFI, not orcl.
Other applications works fine with my descriptor.
Someone can help me in order to resolve this problem ?
Thank You and Best Regards.

Gaetano,
I see you took my advice when I replied to your Error with OCI8 driver installing sendmail/javamail.
However, it doesn't look like you studied the Oracle documentation for loadjava because the command you posted doesn't look right at all.
Please refer to the Java Developer's Guide for the correct syntax and usage of the loadjava command.
Good Luck,
Avi.

BSOD on X300 with DVD drive

All,
I have a X300, XP SP3, SATA AHCI, latest BIOS and drivers. When the removable DVD drive is not present, the machine runs fine. But if the DVD drive is inserted, with or without a disk, the machine consistently BSODs within 10 minutes. Error code 1000007e/c0000005...
If I change SATA to compatibility mode with DVD drive plugged in, the machine BSODs while "Found new hardware".
Any ideas?

Here is an new discovery. If there is a CD in the drive, the machine runs fine. But if there is a blank disc or no disc at all, the machine would BSOD with 1000007E in 10 minutes or so.

What does "2 param error" on DVD drive mean?

DVD driver on MacBook Pro will not play. Spits DVDS and Cds out. Does not show up anywhere in system preferences. When I ask for "cds &dvds preferences" in Finder I get this message:
"The item cannot be opened. It may be disabled or not installed. 2 param error"
Anyone know where I should look or what to do to fix up my goof?

Either the fan motor or hard drive isn't working properly (the fan may be running, but too slowly).

Initialization error-valid dvd drive not found-no icons, no disk eject

My mac mini is giving me a hard time. Actually, ever since I got it over 5 years ago, it's been a bit of a headache with the DVD/CD drive.
I've even had the drive changed once under warranty. Anyway, I'm trying to upgrade to OSX 10.6.3. For that, I need to put the CD into the drive.
Right now I have my start up disk in the drive as I tried to do some repairs to the disk before I installed the new OS.
But as in the past, my disk is now stuck in the drive. There is no icon of the CD on my desktop. My DVD player program says that no valid DVD drive has been found. I've tried every way I know to eject the disk as this has happened to me before. I've reset the SMC by shuting down, unpluging the power and other cables. Waiting 15 seconds and even a few hours to see if it made a difference. Plugged it all back in and turned it on. The CD whirls around in there as I can hear it, but then nothing. No icons, no nothing. It's as if I don't even have a CD/DVD dirve on the computer at all. I've tried starting up holding the mouse button down before start up, after start up, durring start up... nothing. I've tried starting up from the disk by pressing C. Momentarily (a fraction of a second)I get a little question mark where the grey apple is supposed to appear but then the grey apple appears and the computer starts up from the hard drive and not the disk. I've even zaped the PRAM a few times for good measure. I just spent $20 on Snow Leopard to install it. I really don't want go to the repair shop again and spend more money on something I already fixed once. Any suggestions or further tips would be very welcome and appreciated.

Whew, sounds like maybe Logic Board problems!?
Does iTunes Eject Disc work? (I doubt it, but...)
Maybe Double backed tape on a credit card to extract it???

Problems with dvd-drive

Hi.
I have a Lite-on cd/dvd-drive, which writes and reads discs. About a week ago i tried to burn a dvd, and noticed that my drive is not detected by Brasero. I tried other programs, and same thing with them (gnomebaker detected my drive, but it did not manage to burn).
Then I tried to read some dvds, but i noticed that my drive doesn't read cds or dvds anymore. I don't know if this problem has been since i changed to arch, because i don't use my drive so much.
Dmesg says next:
sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 48x/48x writer dvd-ram cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray
Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20
sr 1:0:1:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0
So I believe that my drive is detected by the system, but some drivers or configs are failing. I tried to change my fstab and added myself to optical- and storage-groups, but no difference. What else I can do to find and solve the problem?
I Also found out, that i can't use usb mass storage devices. According to dmesg, usb storages are detected, but i can't see them anywhere.
scsi 4:0:0:0: Direct-Access Kingston DataTraveler 2.0 PMAP PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
ps. How can i change ide-scsi to ide-cd for my dvd/cd-drive?

I have only one drive, which both reads and writes. The drive is not dead, since i can boot from LiveCd.
Edit: Apparently I can't use LiveCds no more, or boot from any cds. So I think my drive is busted

Trying to install iwork '09 from dvd on new imac with no dvd drive.....iwork is brand new (bought off ebay) in unopened box....I have at my disposal an older imac with dvd drive and a 16GB thumb drive...what is best way to load iwork on the new imac?

bought my mom a new imac this xmas...didn't realize it has no dvd drive....just picked up a new unopened version of iwork '09 for her to use off of ebay....need to get it loaded on the new dvddriveless imac......I have an imac at my house with a drive and a thumb drive i could bring over to her house if I could somehow burn an image of the iwork dvd on the thumb drive...is this possible? is there a better solution other than buying an external dvd drive?

First use Disk Utilty to make a disk image of the iWork disc on your iMac. Then there are two easy ways to install on your mothers new iMac. One is to copy to your USB thumb drive, visit your mother and install from the thumb drive. The other is to use a free upload and download service like www.wetransfer.com. Upload the .dmg disk image via www.wetransfer.com, then your mother downloads and installs. After installation you'll need to update iWork for Mountain Lion compatibility.

Problem with DVD drive, please help

Hi people, please read the whole story and give me some advice.
Last Friday, took the train from Stoke on trent to Birmingham to get to Apple at the bullring as the DVD drive is not recognising DVDs. Everytime I put a dvd in, the blank dvd message comes up! They told me they can replace the drive, but it will take a few days unless I pay for Apple pro care, as I needed it done quick, I paid, I roamed around the shops waiting for the phone call that it is ready. After an hour, got a call saying that the NEW DRIVE they have in stock is faulty, so I came back, they told me that they will call me when they get another one in stock. Went back home after having wasted a day in birmingham.
Monday, got a message on my voicemail, the drive is in stock, pop in and we'll replace it. As I was working all week, I thought I'd give them a ring to arrange for the repair on Saturday where they can fit me. I tried to call all week, THE BULLRING STORE DOES NOT ANSWER THEIR PHONES!
So, I popped in today, they said that they cannot do it today as they were busy. I asked to see the store manager and explained to her the situation and how annoying it is not to be able to get in touch with the store. She told me she'll get it done before closing time.Luckily by 2 pm it was ready, picked up , hopped back on the train to stoke. Got home tried a DVD, it works, then suddenly STOPS WORKING.
The Macbook now doesn't recognise the drive at all, and I've got a DVD stuck in it.
I have wasted another day in birmingham + train fares + Apple pro crae (79.99). I am very frustrated, I am now having second thoughts on the quality of apple products. If the matsui drives are crap, why don't they get another manufacturer to make it for them.
I would appreciate your help on what should my next move be, I cannot keep loosing my time like this, I paid good money for this kit and I need it to work.

Have a read of this article. You definantely should be able to get a full refund (whether they will do that is a different matter).
If you don't ask (firmly) then you don't get. A 12 month warranty is there for a reason so use it. I can't believe they've actually charged you for work already within the 12 month period. I have also being trying ot look for an article about claiming unfair travel to and from a shop for repairs but I cannie find it.....
Would you consider asking for a replacment laptop. From what I have read on the forums, if you call apple they will be more likely to help out, maybe give them a try and avoid Birmingham all together.
ps, i'm from Stoke too -Small world eh?

Weird incident with DVD drive

Weird thing happened last night... was taking out a DVD from the drive and a small thin donut shapped rubbery/cloth-like thing (best I can describe it) came out with it... any ideas what that could be and if that's going to affect operation of my computer? I've been able to write a DVD since it happened, but have also had a couple fail during writing.
Thanks.
PowerBook 12" Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Sounds like some part of the DVD drive is falling to pieces. Either that or a copy-protected ring fell off a copy-protected disk. Hopefully it is the latter. I'd take it to a service center to be sure.

Kernel 2.6.27: Problems with DVD drive/nVidia MCP51

I have sent the following message to linux-ide, but so far it has not been answered. Perhaps someone on this forum has some insights.
After upgrading from 2.6.26.5 to 2.6.27.4, my DVD drive started having problems during boot time. Here is the relevant part from dmesg:
ata2: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300)
ata2.00: ATAPI: HL-DT-ST DVD+/-RW GSA-T11N, A103, max UDMA/33

[continue ad inifitum....]
The drive is reported as "HL-DT-ST DVD+/-RW GSA-T11N, A103", connected to an nVidia MCP51 controller. Googling around, I found similar complaints in the past for other nVidia controllers using the sata_nv driver (though I couldn't find anything about the MCP51). I tried compiling the version of sata_nv that comes with 2.6.26.5, but that did not solve my problems.
I can provide further details if necessary.

This might/might not help. After upgrading to 2.6.27, both my wireless card and nvidia drivers failed. I ran "depmod" as root in the console and now everything runs. Might want to give that a try.

New 27" iMac; Glitch with DVD drive

Just got my new refurbished 27" iMac yesterday(my first mac computer ever) and after starting up and playing around few things, I tried to play DVD and it would not accept any DVDs including the setup dvd that came with iMac.
After talking with tech support they asked me to powered down and take out the power plug for few second and restarting the mac solved the issue with DVD.
Not sure how did powering down and restarting helped with DVD in this case. Should I be worried about this DVD drive?
Thanks,
Jeegar.

I guess at least it is now working - I have just bought one myself and just been shipped. First refurb Mac i have ever bought so fingers crossed...

Problems with DVD drive showing up in BIOS

Hello everyone. I am just after getting my MSI 915P Combo mainboard. The problem is i have one DVD-RW drive which i used to load on the windows XP pro onto the computer. When i restarted the computer a message came up checking for new devices and that was fine it found the NEC ND-3540A DVD drive and said that it was a none raid device. So i went to the bios and turned off the raid settings. I then restarted again and checked the bios it didn't pick up the DVD drive and neither did windows XP. I have the DVD drive set to secondary master as i have a sata hard drive configured. Hopefully someone has some ideas

You need to connect your DVD on the blue one as the VIA RAID chip doesn't support CD-ROM or DVD and only HDD. If currently there is a HDD connected to IDE1 and set it as Master, you can set the DVD as slave, of course, it would be better to put the DVD to IDE1 as Master and put your PATA HDD to IDE2 or 3. If so, you need to install the VIA RAID driver when installing OS to the PATA HDD. During the installation, you should be able to see the message "Press F6 if you need to install third party SCSI or RAID driver", then prmptly press F6 to load driver. Before this, you need to copy the VIA RAID driver to a floppy disk.

Help with dvd drive - region code error

Hi, I really need to change the drive region code on my Ibook G4 (OS X 10.4.10) back to Region 2. I'm allowed to change it one last time.
But the trouble is, when I try and change it and click 'set drive region' it just comes up with an error message -70001, 'There was a problem changing the drive region code.'
I've reset the PMU and PRAM/NVRAM but it still does it.
Can anybody help me at all? It's driving me mad, I was banking on being able to change it back to my Region one last time...

Insert a DVD which is set to play in only one region; if you try using up your last change with a DVD that can play in some but not all regions, that error message will appear. Many DVDs which are set to play in region 2 will also play in region 4.
