My macbook does not want to accept any cd/dvd into my superdrive... any help?

Hi, please I have a problem with my superdrive on my MacBook. It doesn't accept any disc. I just put it in, then hrrrrr and the disc is pulled out. Does anyone here has a same problem? Do you have a solution, how to solve this problem?
Filip

According to apple, what is happening means that the disk isn't getting inserted all of the way.

I connect my Macbook 13" to my thunderbolt to display on my HD television but it keeps asking for a KeyChain password for "user-hp". My key keychain password is nothing but it does not want to accept and not display my screen to the Television. Suggestion

Maybe this will help. If you monitor the "More Like This" box (top right), other threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads.

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro Retina Display. In addition, I picked up a USB Superdrive. It appears the Superdrive does not want to accept my discs and just ejects them. What am I doing wrong?

You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

I've always had PSE 7.0, but I guess my computer has an issue reading the Installation CD I have for it, so I tried to manually download it from the official website, but when I go trough the whole process, it does not want to accept my product key number

It's either my computer because it's old, or something is wrong with my cd installer. I don't know, but I just want to install my PSE 7.0, but it does not work even on the official website with my product key #.
PLZ HELP ME!

Could that read " . . . could not access . . ."? If so, try repairing your backups, per #A5 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
If not, or if that doesn't help, see #A1 there. Use the TM Buddy widget it details to copy and post the messages here.

Hi there.

Am I doing something wrong? Please advise.

MacBook Pro will not start up, get start up chime but screen does not light up. Any help?

Upon start up I hear optical drive checked, then get a start up chime but the screen does not light up. I have shut down by holding down power butto for 10 seconds also pulled battery and A/C power.

I had this same issue but after a new hard drive/ram install.
What solved the issue - and I hope this helps someone else who has the same problem:
1). Install new hard drive (with or without osx pre installed) or leave old one in in your case.
2). Remove all ram
3). Power on and wait 1 minute
4). Hold power button until it turns off
5). Install ram
6). Power back on
7). BOOM! It works again.

HT201335 I've got the iPhone 4s and the newest apple tv,all updated.it will not let me AirPlay,as the button does not even come up any help?

It will not let me AirPlay,I do not even have the option for it any help?

Dear Timvans
I fully agreed with vazandrew answer
I have Iphone 4s and recently purchased Apple TV, first time of use I tried in My Hotel room using the Hotel Network (no web page to log on just password) without success for Airplay as I belive that they did some of restriction to they network, Apple TV worked fine in the hotel showed everything except Airplay connection with My iPhone 4S. I tried later on the same day using my friend home network it work fine, directly the Airplay icon appear in my iphone.
So check your network if there any restriction.
Good luck.

Macbook does not start up from any Windows Installation Disc

Hi:
I just bought one brand new MacBook Pro in March and I decided to install Windows two days ago. I created a 32 GB partition using Boot Camp (I had no problem at this point). However, when I restarted the computer (after I inserted an original Windows XP SP2 disc) it got freezed, and a black screen with a blinking cursor on the upper-left corner appeared. I repeated the operation many times with my XP SP2 and another Vista SP1 CDs, always with the same result. After that, I tried to install both systems on 2007 iMac and I had no trouble.
Could you help me with this?
Thank you!!
Ramiro

Hey guys,
I just recently ran into the same problem while trying to install Windows XP SP2 on my MBP. I tried a number of suggested solutions including:
1. Re-partitioning the HDD
2. Repairing the partitions using Disk Utility (requires OS X DVD boot for primary partition)
3. Copying my Windows to a new CD
4. Hitting the Option key during boot and selecting the Windows CD
None of the above worked. Here is how I finally got my Mac to boot from the Windows CD (this might not work for most or any of you - some of these problems are very case specific):
1. Start the Windows installation from the Boot Camp Assistant in OS X
2. When the computer restarts hold the Option key until you get the boot menu
3. You should see the original OS X option as well as the Windows CD
4. At this point pop out the Windows CD by hitting the eject key
5. Once the CD is out its icon disappears in the boot menu
6. Reinsert the CD and wait for it to spin up
7. Once the Windows CD icon re-appears as a choice select it and hit enter
However random this sequence of events might seem it actually worked for me. I hope it does for you too. Good luck!

The CFINPUT TYPE=DATEFIELD does not want to accept the date from the database

I got a weird problem which I guess can be just a way to
explain to the server how to interpret the value. I am using
ColdFusion 8 with SQL 2005 Express. In my table, the field is a
DATETIME field and shows the date with time (eg. 2007-07-23
00:00:00).
In my form, when I am adding using the DATEFIELD as the type
for CFINPUT, it records the date correctly. But when I use the
EDIT.cfm form and try to put the value from the database into the
DATEFIELD CFINPUT, the server generate an error. Here is the error:
2007-07-23 00:00:00/0 is an invalid date or time string.
Of course, I tried many things but mostly I tried to force
the format of the date with DATEFORMAT(qGetNewsInfos.dtIssued,
'mm/dd/yyyy') and many more format but without success.
Is anybody know the trick how to use a date into a
<CFINPUT TYPE=DATEFIELD>?

I tried the method like this and still got the same problem:
<cfinput type="datefield" value="#DateFormat(now(),
'mm/dd/yyyy')#">
The system return this error:
08/13/2007 is an invalid date or time string.
I can use this method to record the date of parution of the
News but cannot use it to put a vlue in the CFINPUT? This is not
making any senses!

IBook G3 does not want to recognise ANY wifi networks

Dudes,
My iBook G3 running Tiger 10.4.11 simply refuses to pick up any wifi networks.
I have a router set up which works fine on it via ethernet.
It can't be a problem with the wifi setup because my iPhone can connect to it fine.
Can anyone help at all? Have tried rebooting iBook and router, repairing permissions etc.
I seem to remember having a similar problem a while ago trying to get my new MBA onto the same network as my existing MB - some problem about the router refusing to recognise more than one device attached to it - I had to do a factory reset, if memory serves - but that was running off an Airport Express - this is just a freebie router that came from my ISP.
Can anyone help at all?
Thanks so much
JC

It could be broken, loose, or bad/frayed Antennae wire.
Did it work with WPA2 in the past? Some orinal Airport cards could not, of course that wouldn't stop it from seeing it I don't think, but maybe again it would, just not sure on the seeing.
The Netgear will have better Range & Speed anyway!

My MacBook does not want to update SW.

When starting iTunes a "Software Update" was offered. I started to run it and almost immediately got an "Installation Alert" message that iTunes application needed to be closed to continue installation. I closed iTunes and the "Software Update" continued - but slowly. After about 10 hours the Software Update is still "runnning package scripts". Also after closing iTunes the "Installation Alert" window was still presnt without any way to close it except "quit installer". This has happened 2 times now. What gives?

Have you rebooted your system and tried Software Update again, before loading iTunes?
If you need to update, the just released iTunes 10.6 release can be downloaded from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1426 .

I have had two instances of having a downloaded album "scrambled" while playing on appletv, I.e. the track listing remaining correct but having the wrong songs play. Once this has occurred the album does not play correctly. Any help with this issue?

I am having problems with Apple TV scrambling albums while playing from iTunes. The track listing remains correct but the songs play out of order and not all of the songs seem to in place, I.e. a song that played previously under one title will play as a different title. Any thoughts or help? Thanks.

A bit confused by your statement

Are you seeing your music listed in the iPod screen, or in Win explorer as in your earlier post?
I can see all the songs in my Edrive>al's Ipod> Ipod Control> Music folder.
A corrupted iPod database, will report zero music used, and have your music size reported as others, so you wont see the music in the iPod screen. Sorry, I thought there was some hope for you with iPodAccess, in recovery of the corrupted iPod database with your ratings.
You can try to borrow and use the Mac Disk Utility ->First Aid ->Repair.
Of course, if your iPod Hardisk is in a bad state, from the Disk Diagnostic report, then all my suggestion are futile.
