Disc stuck - any ideas, please!!

I have a DVD disc stuck in my iMacG5- it tries to eject but doesn't then acts as if i have just inserted it. Is there a way I can tell the machine to open the drive and leave it open so I can get in there with tweezers!!??

Try placing the computer face down on a soft towel, then press the eject button on the keyboard. This usually works.

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.

Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.

Hopefully one of these steps should solve the problem.
1. Remove the headphone.
    If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
    in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
    Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
2. Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
3. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Choose the method for:
    "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
4. Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup
    Audio Devices window
    Side Bar
    Click the Built-in Output.
    Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so, uncheck it.
Best.

Lightroom 5 - Update from 5.0 auf 5.7 does not work. When I try to do the online update I get a message the programm does not find an *.msi file. Any ideas ?

Lightroom has been installed on my Laptop with a DVD.
In the Adobe Programm Folder on my harddrive I do not find a *.msi file.
Any ideas ?

Hello I was not sure where to find the right temp Folder. So I deinstalled the program and installed it again.
But with the same negative effect.
There are two ways for the update:
1) Within Lightroom: search for newer Version.
2) At the Adobe Website
1) Did not work
2) worked perfectly
Thanks for your help

Just got home with my ipad and its asking for a passcode which i haven't set.....any ideas please???

just got home with my new ipad and its asking for a passcode to let me in - haven't set one up, wasn't told about this in store, any ideas please???? Have tried my apple password & my passcode i use with my i-phone but none works.

Was this a used iPad? Try going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. This will completely restore the iPad to brand new. It will erase all content, but since the iPad is brand new and you haven't made any changes to it, there is no content that will be erased. Except the passcode, of course

I am having problems with migration assistant (windows pc to Mac 2011) When I get to the 'Quit other applications' box and click continue, nothing happens. There are no other apps running - any ideas, please?

I am having probems with migration assistant. Trying to transfer data from a windows laptop to iMac 2011. It was working fine when I did the set-up yesterday, but it was going to take hours to transfer some videos so I quit the process with the intention of doing it again at a later stage. However today I find that everytime I get to the 'Quit other applications' box on the Mac and click 'continue', nothing happens. Have checked mission control and confirmed no other apps running. Tried several times with the same result every time. Migration Assistant running on my laptop with the 'Waiting for mac to connect' box displayed. Mac is connected to wi-fi OK as able to use Safari and access internet. Any ideas, please?

Thanks for your suggestions. Have managed to get Migration Assistant working but now have a new problem, i.e. where does it save the transferred files?!! Searched a few forums and it seems it saves it under your old username, or suchlike. Anyway I tried logging on as a new user using my old user name but there were only a handful of files there, couldn't locate the majority of stuff from my old laptop. Anyway I don't intend to go through any more hoops with MA - will just save the important stuff to an external drive and transfer it that way. Not impressed with MA at all. I thought it was supposed to be a user-friendly tool to simplify the transfer from pc to Mac - not my experience, I'm afraid!

I am using Numbers app for the ipad and it has been working absolutely fine but now, when I want to email a spreadsheet as a PDF via the 'share and print' option, the file now doesn't appear as an attachment to the recipient. Any ideas please?

Hi mafiose15,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Restoring your iPod to factory settings is the best way to try and get it back to working order. You can use the instructions below to restore it:
How to restore iPod
Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
Click Restore.
If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
You can find the instructions in this article:

Assuming you have these accounts set up in Mail, open preferences and under Accounts tab, edit the SMTP outgoing server list. Do you have a .mac address in the list? If so, delete it.
Are you using iCloud?
For the troubled account, select the correct SMTP server for that account in the box and check the box to use only that server with that account.

I've downloaded the IOS7 to my i-phone 4. My password to unlock the phone is alfa-numeric the keyboard used to come up, now it's just numbers- I've converted to numbers but it won't unlock, any ideas please?

Hi, please can anyone help, I've downloaded IOS7 onto my i-phone 4 this morning, I simply accepted the prompt. When it downloaded I needed to unlock the phone, it's a four digit code, three alfa and one numeric. Previously when I switched my phone on the key pad popped up at the bottom of the screen, now it's like the telephone key pad, but there's no way of choosing numbers or letters. I checked out a website that converts alfa to entered m4rk and it converted it to 6475, when I enter it into the phone it doesn't recognise it.
Any ideas please? I've maned to block the phone several times now....

No one requires the device to be updated, if you choose not to update, that is entirely up to you.
Updating without a backup is a bad idea.
Attempting an update without access to a computer is not very smart either. In the event the update goes badly, the only option may be to restore via iTunes on a computer.

I can no longer import raw files from my Panasonic Lumix LX5 into Aperture 3.3.2 - raw files from my other Canon cameras are fine. Am still running Lion - NOT Mountain Lion. Tried all available software updates - no joy. Any ideas please?

I can no longer import raw files from my Panasonic Lumix LX5 into Aperture 3.3.2 - raw files from my other Canon cameras are fine. Am still running Lion (10.7.4) - NOT Mountain Lion. Tried all available software updates - all up to date apparently but still no joy. OS X Lion shows the LX5 as a supported file format. I dont want to have to upgrade to Mountain Lion just to see if this solves the problem. Any ideas please.

Since when did this happen? Directly after you upgraded to Aperture 3.3.2?
If it happened directly after the upgrade the problem may be, that the raw support for your camera got lost. For some posters it helped to register the raw support again, see this post by Alan Roseman:
Aperture 3 preview of raw file greenish
If this does not help, you may need to reinstall Lion to bring back the raw support.
But if the problem occured independent of a new installation, ypu may have a problem with your camera or the card you are using. Have you tried to use a different card or to reformat the card in the camera?

I have just recieved a brand new ipod touch 8GB, it wont turn on and it wont either charge or recognise connection through ITunes. I have tried the hold down home and the power button together but no luck. Its absolutely dead, any ideas please ????

I have just received a brand new IPOD Touch ,it will not turn on, i have connected it to my cmputer, it does not show that its charging and is not recognised in Itunes. I have tried the holding down the power and home buttons which also didnt work. Any Ideas Please ????

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
