My MacBook Pro's internal SuperDrive has stopped recognizing CDs/DVDs after Yosemite install
After upgrading to Yosemite, my MacBook Pro's (early 2011) internal SuperDrive has stopped recognizing CDs/DVDs after Yosemite install. It takes them in and will eject them with the keyboard button, but they will not mount. Disk Utility shows the SuperDrive and shows the inserted media, but will not mount the disk. That button is grayed out. Please help! I still have training libraries and music I access on such media. Thx!
UPDATE: I discovered some forum posts about a similar issue with Mavericks that recommended re-installing the system to fix the problem. I realized that I rarely restart my computer unless there's an update that requires it, and decided before undertaking a full re-install of Yosemite to simply restart my computer again. THIS WORKED! The SuperDrive is now mounting CDs and DVDs. Not sure what the issue was, but if anyone else has this issue I hope this will save you hours of frustration.

I have a 2 year old MacBook Pro and the superdrive has stopped working, it won't take discs in as if there is one already inside but iTunes or the dvd player doesn't recognise that there is a disc inside and if there is it can't be ejected, i have tried shutting down and restartinf while holding down the trackpad, as recommended on some forums but that has done nothing
It might be a huge coincidence but the drive was working fine before i installed lion?Installing Lion would not cause the superdrive to stop working. Are you unsure as to whether or no a cd/dvd is inside? Something may be broken inside and you should consider bringing it in for service.

My Macbook Pro purchased Dec 2011 has suddenly become very slow after not using for 2 weeks (close to frozen). What is the problem and how to solve it?
Need Help Ye,
boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Is it still very slow? -
I tried to install windows 7 in my macbook pro late 2011 but i tried to create partions after it installed and it turn to dynamic disks and i can't access mac or win 7 what should I do i cant format it because i dont have a backup
It's not that you can't format it because you have no backup, it's because you'll lose everything when you do. Lesson learned. Always have a backup.

Device not working is : hp DVDWBD TS-LB23L ATA Device
Whirrrs like reading disc...even gets the disc icon on windows.
Have scoured these boards and tried everal of the solutions.....
1. tried uninstalling and reinstalling Driver as described on these boards... didnt work
2. tried MATS on microsoft website....didnt work
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/cd_dvd_drive_problems/
3. Tried the Revo uninstaller attempt .... didnt work
4. tried the CC Cleaner attempt ... didnt work
5. Tried the ATA channel delete ... didnt work
6. tried the BIOS update here : HP Mediasmart DVD failure - HP Support Forum
as additional clarification..... no physical damage to computer....Discs being used are all functional Blu or CD or DVD.
HP Mediasmart DVD is still not working.
NO installation of new programs prior to this going on.
My same fire wall program, anti-,malware has been on this computer since I purchased it 7 months ago.
No software changes in system.
I do not use the Comodo firewall system either.
Thank youHave you tried installing a trial Blu-ray player. Don't use one from Cyberlink as it's too close to Media Smart DVD.
Use Arc Soft

----Will give that a whirl when I return home.
Have you tried the obvious and picked a Windows restore point to where it was working ? -------Windows 7, in that particular machine isn't letting me dial back for an earlier restore point..... it isn't even letting me see dates....Believe me I would have been happy to dial back a week or two. Not sure why, Havent been able to dig in that direction....was trying to be careful about not digging a deeper hole before moving all important work files and stuff to a different machine before toying with windows deeper.
Maybe the drive itself has failed, do you you have another HP laptop that you can try it in ?-----have several HPs...might try that soon.
Check "Autoplay" in the control panel.----have done the autoplay fixes that have been proposed in other chains of similar problems....no avail.
I will keep throwing ideas at you no matter how simplistic they may seem. I find that it starts people thinking in another direction. --------Believe me, I appreciate it, just as long as it doesn't devolve into .....Is the machine plugged in?
Have you tried burning a DVD with it ? Not yet, that is a good idea.
Try installing Image Burn and see if the drive will create ISO files with a Blu-ray disk. You will get a warning that Image Burn can't do this, but continue and let it dead the whole disc. Let me know if that works and I will give you the software to play the movie from the ISO files.
http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download
Use mirror 8 provided by Image Burn.
What version of Media Smart DVD are you running ? Was using the most recent release......then uninstalled it and went back a few versions... to one that was linked to in another similar thread.
Thanks. -

USB SuperDrive not Working as a Secondary Drive for MacBook Pro with Internal SuperDrive
I've just purchased a 13" MacBook Pro (not Retina) with an internal SuperDrive. I wanted to use a second SuperDrive so purchased an Apple USB SuperDrive but my MacBook cannot find it. I have also tested this on my friends MacBook Pro and on another 2008 MacBook and on all three MacBooks the USB SuperDrive cannot be found.
I then tested it on a friends driveless iMac, and the USB SuperDrive is picked up fine, even when another is connected. This leads me to believe you can not run an addiotnal SuperDrive on MacBooks with an internal SuperDrive but is there anyway around this?Incidently, I can run a third party USB drive fine alongside my internal SuperDrive.

Airdrop from macbook pro to iPhone 6 has stopped working
I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013) with Mountain Yosemite 10.10.1 and an iPhone 6 running iOS 8.1.1
Recently my MacBook can no longer send items out via airdrop to my iPhone. I can see the iPhone on the MacBook and can receive files from the iPhone but can not get the MacBook to send items to it. This just started recently. Ideas? I've tried restarting the phone and the MacBook and this has not fixed the issue.
I also can't cancel out of the airdrop share either. I have to do a manual force restart on finder.Open iTunes then login to your account and make sure the computer is authorized. Next go to the music tab and choose artists, songs or albums you want to sync. Click sync at the bottom of the page. At the top of the iTunes screen you should see the sync actions take place.

HT5449 MacBook Pro 10.9 Dictation has stopped working
I'm on a MacBook Pro running 10.9. When I activate the Dictation function, the other sound source fades away and, as I speak, I see the sound response in the microphone icon. However, nothing gets typed on the screen. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Peter MillerPlease read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed, as well as certain other aspects of the configuration that may have a bearing on the problem. Don’t be alarmed by the apparent complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode, if possible. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. If you can only boot in safe mode, you can still use this procedure, but not all of it will work. Be sure to mention that in your reply, if you haven't already done so.
Below are instructions to enter UNIX shell commands. The commands are safe and do nothing but produce human-readable text output, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. I am not asking you to trust me. If you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them.
The commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. Step 1 should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
{ echo "Loaded kernel extensions:"; kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'; echo $'\n'"Loaded user agents:"; launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)|\.[0-9]+$/{print $3}'; echo $'\n'"Inserted libraries:"; launchctl getenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES; echo $'\n'"User cron tasks:"; crontab -l; echo $'\n'"System launchd configuration:"; cat /e*/lau*; echo $'\n'"User launchd configuration:"; cat .lau*; echo $'\n'"Login items:"; osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of login items'; printf "\nRestricted user files: %s\n" $(find ~ $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 \) | wc -l); echo $'\n'"Extrinsic loadable bundles:"; cd; find -L /S*/L*/E* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,In,Keyb,Mail/Bu,P*P,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo}* -type d -name Contents -prune | while read d; do /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c 'Print :CFBundleIdentifier' "$d/Info.plist" | egrep -qv "^com\.apple\.[^x]|Accusys|ArcMSR|ATTO|HDPro|HighPoint|driver\.stex|hp-fax|JMicron|print|SoftRAID" && echo ${d%/Contents}; done; echo $'\n'"Unsigned shared libraries:"; find /u*/{,*/}lib -type f -exec sh -c 'file -b $1 | grep -qw shared && ! codesign -v $1' {} {} \; -print; echo; ls -A {,/}L*/{La,Priv,Sta}* L*/Fonts; } 2> /dev/null | open -ef
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
The command may take up to a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A TextEdit window will open with the output. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
Step 2
Remember that you must be logged in as an administrator for this step. Do as in Step 1 with this line:
{ echo "Loaded system agents:"; sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix\.cron)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; echo $'\n'"Login hook:"; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; echo $'\n'"Root cron tasks:"; sudo crontab -l; echo $'\n'"Log check:"; syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|pagin|timed? ?o' | tail } 2> /dev/null | open -ef
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
To prevent confusion, I'll repeat: When you type your password in the Terminal window, you won't see what you're typing.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, set one before taking Step 2. If that’s not possible, skip the step.
Important: If any personal information, such as your name or email address, appears in the output of these commands, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
Remember, Steps 1 and 2 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output as text, not as a screenshot.
You can then quit Terminal. -
Macbook Pro's internal speaker is not recognized
Hello, I've been using my macbook pro 15-inch(early 2011) for almost a year.
I usually connects external speakers to my macbook pro. However today my mac started not to recognize any speaker devices. As I disconnect my external speakers, my mac doesn't even recognize its internal speakers. When I go to my system preferences, it usually display the message 'No digital output available' or says that it recognizes external headphone EVEN when it's not connected to the macbook pro. I always try putting my sound volume to the maximum but still no sounds come from the internal speakers. The mac constantly stop recognizing the internal headphone and switch to the external headphone automatically when nothing's connected to the mac. I have been searching through internet and rebooted my mac more than 3 times but this still happens. I am not even sure if this is software or hardware's problem. Can anyone identify what would be the cause of this problem?
I would appreciate if anyone answers my question.Look into the headphone port. Can you see a red glow? If so, an out-of-spec analog headphone plug jammed the digital port's contacts in the "mute speakers" position.
The official fix is a new logic board but that;s overkill. Most people are able to free the contact by inserting a plug about 3/4ths of the way in the port ahd GENTLY moving the plug in the horizontal plane.
To prevent recurrences, stop inserting the external speaker plug "to the hilt." The tip-to-shoulder distance on the plug is too long for the precision port. Turn on an audo source, fire up the speakers and then start inserting the plug; when you hear sound in both channels, stop pushing.
In the image below. I have a pair of name-brand headphones attached to my MacBook Pro. Note the shoulder of the plug is NOT touching the computer case. This position gives normal sound and the plug is as secure in the jack as if I'd shoved it all the way in. And nothing is jammed. -
hello.
I got my macpook pro in july 2009 so the warrenty has ran out. Today, after a while just typing away I tried to save the document and went to click on the save icon and found that I had selected selected everything in the document and then the left clicker stopped regsitering. The right click worked just fine but it would like the left click didnt exist and it wouldnt let me do it. I have a mouse, and at first I thought it was the mouse. But it wasnt registering on the trackpad either, so its definitely the laptop itself not getting the signals for a left click.
I then restarted the laptop and it was back to normal. So i thought it was just a glitch. but it happened again after about an hour after restarting the laptop. So I gave up on the laptop and then out for dinner, came home to find that it happened after about 30 mins of being on the internet.
Ive tried looking for similiar threads but it seems like for other people its something to do with the battery on their laptop or just on their track pads thats not registering. For me, it's not registering on my track pad and every mouse I have in my house to test it with.
Please help, it is VERY VERY much appreciatedThat disk from her computer is a machine specific version, you need this disk

Macbook pro will no longer boot from main sata bay after Yosemite
Hi!
I am really stuck as to why my macbook pro will no boot from the main Sata bay.
I have the macbook pro late 2011 - a few months ago I installed a samsung 840 evo, and moved the 500gb hdd into the optical bay and all has been working perfectly until last night.
I installed yosemite two days ago and it worked perfectly to begin with... then when I re opened my laptop everything was frozen. I restarted it and it wouldnt get past the grey screen. Then I managed to get it to the internet recovery stage....however it would not recognise the SSD, so I had to install Lion on the HDD.
After I logged on it gave me the message saying that the disc is not readable and on disk utility I can only see the "samsung ssd" but no details about it.
I thought that the SSD may have gone, but when i removed it and plugged it in via USB I was able to boot from it with no issues.
Does anyone know if this has anything to do with the new OS? or whether it is the Sata cable?
Thanks for any help!!!Hi, I have been having the exact same problem with a late 2011 MBP 15 inch. I replaced the hard drive with a samsung SSD 1.5 years ago, along with a samsung SSD in the optical drive. It worked great until the Yosemite upgrade. The MBP seemed to work reasonably well for a few days after the upgrade, but then it started stalling on various programs (spinning beach ball on Mail, Safari, etc). Start-ups were also longer and had a loading bar each time, which was new since the upgrade. I left the MBP to sleep last night and when opening it, it crashed and tried to restart. On restart it loads to the login screen, then after I enter the password it partially loads (based on the loading bar), then shuts off. I removed the SSD and plugged it in with a USG, but that didn't change anything. Here is a picture after using CMD-V before it shuts off.

On my Macbook Pro 13.3" mid 2011 model, with Lion and bootcamp, upgrading to Mountain lion 10.8 hung for the whole night. It failed to boot up, I was panic, reinstall the OS in the hope it will repair the boot disc, but it locked up the macintosh HD.
I rebuilt OS without bootcamp from backed up image (Lion) then upgraded to Mountain lion, no problem at all. Used it for a couple of days, then installed bootcamp and restored the Windows 7 image from the backup. It's completed without any problem. It can boot up in Windows 7 and I changed startup disc in control panel to Mac HD, it can only boot from the recovery disc. Holding down the option key will show the 3 hard discs: Macintosh HD, Windows and Recovery 10.8, but selecting Mac HD always boots up by recovery disc. I have use disk utility from recovery disc to verify and repair Macintosh HD to no avail.
If I use only mountain lion, it will be OK.
Has anyone experience the same problem? Thank you.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaDMbmsRqkQ
