Macbook pro DVD rom not inject DVD/CD

as topic said.

Oh - that's bad. It could be that your SuperDrive is failing. If you've an Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider near you, you should take it in and have them take a look at it. It may be a simple mechanical problem that they can fix, or the drive may be dead or dying. I don't know what Apple's charging these days to replace a SuperDrive but you can often get an equivalent drive off the Internet and install it yourself. OWC has a number of solutions.

  • My macbook pro 13 will not play DVD's

    Until recently my disc drive on my macbook pro 13 was functioning properly. Then one day I had to watch a video for an online class, and thinking it was a just a bad disc, ignored the fact that there was no video to go with the audio playing with the DVD. The screen was just black, and when I minimized it, the video window was just black. About a week later, I wanted to watch a movie, and it was the same situation. Is there a setting somewhere in the DVD player application that might have turned my picture dark? If not, has anyone had this problem before? And what did you do to fix it?

  • Macbook Pro CD ROM not working!!

    I have a 2009 Macbook Pro. Unfortunately the CD rom suddenly doesnt read or reconise any CD i insert in it. I insert the CD it makes a noise but nothing shows up on the desktop or on iTunes and a few minutes later it spits it out.
    Can someone please tell me how to fix this.
    Thanks in advance.

    Often the lens is dirty and needs to be cleaned.  Use a lens cleaning DVD, try a few shots of compressed air into the slot or use a fine microfiber cloth wrapped around a business card and gently insert it inside the slot.
    If that does not resuscitate the drive, then it may need replacement.
    Ciao.

  • Macbook pro 15 mid 2011 dvd rom dont inject any dvd

    Macbook pro 15 mid 2011 dvd rom dont inject any dvd, i install lion maybe its because of lion? I dont know what to do... i try to inject any dvd or cd, but dvd-rom dont inject it

    Are you saying that you inserted a dvd/cd into the optical drive and it is stuck, or when you try to insert one your mac automatically ejects it?

  • HT2499 Hi. When I inserted the DVD into my Macbook Pro I could not play because it required to choose region????? So I could not make it. If you have any idea please let me know. Many thanks.

  • My Macbook Pro always ejects any CDs, DVDs that I insert. How do I remedy this?

    My Macbook Pro always ejects any CDs, DVDs that I insert. How do I remedy this?

    Before taking it for repair, try a drive cleaning disk. They are US$5-15 at most computer, electronics, and office supply stores. Slot-loading drives get dirty and the inexpensive cleaning disk is the logical step before spending a lot of mony.
    Case in point: A friend has an older MacBook Pro and its optical drive had not worked in years. When he took the computer to an AASP for servicing another issue, he asked about replacing the optical drive. The Service Provider said it woul cost US$140 paarts + labor to install a new one--something my friend could not afford at the time.
    I loaned my friend my drive cleaning disk and now his original drive works like it did when new.

  • Macbook Pro 15" Need to Replace DVD drive

    I was wondering where I could go to either purchase a new Matshita DVD-R UJ-857 drive for my macbook pro, or a comparable slot-DVD drive. It is out of warranty, and I would rather install it myself to save cash on installation, because I am knowledgeable in computer building. Will apple sell this part, if not, where can I go to purchase it/what drives will fit properly?
    Thanks!

    This is a compatible drive.

  • HELP! MacBook Pro cant recognise or burn DVDs but only CDs, and...

    Hi all
    I noticed that there many of you have the same problem, but I really need some advice here, my MacBook Pro cant recognise or burn DVDs but only CDs, well actually occasionally it does recognise the DVDs then it burn but cannot write (on Toast), also in many other apps, like iDVD or DVDSP, it does run well on the first part of the burning but then failed at the end, with all kinda diff error msg. I have tried using many diff brands of disc too, inc verbatim.
    So I borrowed my friends external DVD writer (actually a cheapy one with no brand), when I tried to burn using the external then an error msg comes up and says the writer cannot recognise the disc.
    I dont wana get the MBP to repair but just wana get a external DVD writer to solve the problem, cos i need to use my computer and dont have a replacement mac, but now I am worry if the problem i now having is a system problem or just hardware, not sure if it is because the DVD writer i borrow is cheapy so it doesnt cope with mac, or just my MBP have system error that cant burn DVDs...
    But my MBP can burn CDs so it is not a hardware problem? and if that is a system problem so even I buy a new DVD writer wont solve the problem?
    btw, I have tried many solving methods like rewriting permission, reset PVRAM, etc
    PLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS HELP

    I'm having the same problem you are on my 2.4GHZ Core2Duo MBP running 10.5.2. It will sometimes recognize DVDs, sometimes not... it chuggs and clunks and then spits the disc out. If i re-insert it a view times it will show up on the desktop. I get failures from Toast as well as iDVD. If i keep trying i have been able to burn files onto a disc with the finder, but then the burner fails during the verification. If put the disc back in the contents appear to be correct (after a quick look). Burning CD-Rs seems to be working fine, that with the occasional DVD write seems to point away from the HW. I am trying with both Memorex DVD+RW and Verbatim DVD-Rs...
    I have tried the command/option-PR reset combo with no luck.
    Any ideas?
    thanks,
    -graham
    PS the specific error i got from iDVD was: The error #-2147352539 was reported…

  • I need to download a DVD to my new MacBook Pro but alas, no CD/DVD drive. What now?

    I need to download a DVD and some CDs to my new MacBook Pro but alas, no CD/DVD drive. What now?

    Use an external optical drive such as Apple's USB SuperDrive, or one inside another computer.

  • My MacBook Pro is spitting out my DVDs. I tried many discs and they all got spat out. Its an early 2008. The drive is a HL-DT-ST dvdrw GSA-s10n. Do I need a new drive?

    Hi.  Need some help here.  My MacBook Pro is spitting out my DVDs.  I insert them and they knock around awhile making whirring noises, then out they come.  Refuses to play them.  I've tried many.  I have an early 2008 model and the drive is a HL-DT-ST dvdrw GSA-s10n.  Do I need to get a new drive?  Thanks for any help or comments.

    My old Early 2008 MBP used to do that every now and then in the last years of its life. Got a dry-type optical drive cleaner, the kind that is a CD with 4 rows of very fine and soft bristles glued on the "business side". Memorex was the brand I got, good for 20-30 uses.  Ran it thru every time the drive acted up, never failed to restore functionality.
    Of course, the Mac would later go on and blow its logic board. And that was that.

  • My 2008 MacBook Pro (A1260) will not startup

    Greetings!
    I was given a 2008 MacBook Pro that will not startup. I press the power button and it trys to start for like 5 seconds and goes no further. The battery is fully charged and the powercord is pluged in. I know that Apple has it listed a "Vintage", but I'd like to get it working. Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    David

    David,
    were you also given two grey installation DVDs which originally came in the box with your MacBook Pro, called “Mac OS X Install Disc 1” and “Mac OS X Install Disc 2”? You’ll need those discs to be able to further diagnose the current problem. If those discs weren’t given to you, you can purchase a replacement pair from Apple.

  • I downloaded and bought a movie from iTunes on my iPad and now want the same movie on my MacBook Pro but its not offering me to download it, it giving me the options of buying it which I already did. How I get the movie onto my MacBook?

    I downloaded and bought a movie from iTunes on my iPad and now want the same movie on my MacBook Pro but its not offering me to download it, it giving me the options of buying it which I already did. How I get the movie onto my MacBook?

    You can connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, that should copy it over to the Movies part of your library.
    Depending upon what country that you are in, and whether the film studio allows it, you might also be able to re-download it on your Mac via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page.

    I still don't know what happened to my test Aperture Library after the update to 3.4...Not only were my previews lost, but so were the original images!  Needless to say, I haven't bothered to update the main library on the Mac Pro because I don't want to deal with this level of uncertainty (even with backups in place).

  • After recent update to my macbook pro itunes will not open, it just bounces when I click on it

    fter recent update to my macbook pro itunes will not open, it just bounces when I click on it

    Means they are going to mess up your iPhoto Library pictures database  so it's unreadable by older versions of iPhoto on older OS X operating systems.
    You have the choice to right click on the iPhoto Lbrary and inside is a folder called Origianls, use the Finder to Duplicate this folder, then move the OriginalsCopy out of the iPhoto Library folder and save it elsewhere.
    I dont' think Apple will every intentionally touch the originals, however it's possible they could.
