My CD Drive in my Macbook is not reading CD. What can I do to resolve this?

The Macbook is about 4 years old and has a Matshita CD-RW CW-8221 Drive in it. It won't play movie's or read software. I am thinking that the drive may just be dirty and need to be cleaned. Any thoughts?

Will it read audio CDs? (In other words, is it just a problem with DVDs, or are CDs not read, either?)

Look into iKlear Polish Cleaning. Do a Google search for others. Or call an Apple Store or an AASP & ask for their recommendations as they are "Apple" professionals and should know the best & better products.

As note already on the iBA forum [ AppleID for ibooks publishing ], you need two IDs. You can't use your developer ID.
If you already signed up for books with that ID, you need to talk to Apple to straighten things out.

It is also posible to go back to the imovie you had before, it is still on your computer - you go to Finder and it is in a folder in your programs. Many others have gone back to the old program, and perhaps I am also going to do that too.
In the new imovie it does not come up the question "do you want to download these videos ...."
You shall in imovie open your iphotolibrary in top on the left side,( it is standing under libraries) and you can see all the events you have in iphoto, then you can open the event, you shall use and drag the movies and pictures from the events in iphoto to an events in imovie. If you can,t see your libraries, you can click on a show button on top of the left side.
On the picture you see here iphoto is market on the top of the left side and the pictures to the left is my iphoto-events - and there I can open the one I shall use, and find my movies.

You should connect your ipad 2 to the computer you registered it too. And then, the pass code would be off. If that doesn't work, then you should go to the Apple Store and they will unlock it for you but you will have to answer some security questions.

Just loaded lion software. Now java scripts will not run. What can I do to fix this

Just loaded my MacBook Pro with Lion 10.7.1 software. Trying to add printer and the script does not work for loading the drivers and software for that printer. It goes through the script then says it successfully loaded but asked me no questions about the load during the process. It appears that the Java script passes right through. Is there anything I can load to fix this problem. I also tried to use my internet stick which loads software to select and use this stick. It does not work either. What can I do to fix this???
